Chapter 341
After Empress Wei found out that Qin Jiu was her younger sister’s biological daughter, Qin Zening hurriedly went to Jiangyu County to investigate everything thoroughly.
So not only did Empress Wei know how Li Jinzhu and his wife abused Qin Jiu but also knew that they were going to marry her to a foolish man, surnamed Xu!
At that time, Li Jinzhu and his wife fled from the country after killing someone, and the government issued a sea arrest document to catch them. The Xu family did not know about Qin Jiu’s family background and only went to the Li family to propose marriage. And since they did not force the marriage, Empress Wei wasn’t really angry with the Xu family and showed them kindness.
However, unexpectedly, her kindness left Qin Jiu with this hidden danger!
This world was inherently unfair to women, even if the world knows that Qin Jiu was not at fault, once such a thing breaks out, the person who would be criticized and gossiped by others was still Qin Jiu.
Empress Wei slightly narrowed her eyes, and a strange light flashed at the bottom as she said, “Xiao Jiu, this matter...”
“Empress Aunt, I’ll go back and take a look first.” Qin Jiu interrupted her with a smile, looking calm and collected, not worried at all, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
How could Empress Wei feel at ease, she wished she could go to the emperor now and have him issue an order to arrest and punish all those unscrupulous people who dare to violate Qin Jiu’s reputation and integrity!
“Auntie,” said Qin Jiu said calmly, “since this matter has already come out, it is not good to suppress it by force, it will only make people talk about it.”
Empress Wei pursed her lips tightly, thinking her niece’s words were indeed reasonable.
The more the things were hidden, the easier it was to attract criticism.
Qin Jiu smiled and said, “With you here, if I’m wrong, it will be the same as they wrong you too.”
“No need.” Qin Jiu remained unflustered, and that calm look made Xu momo‘s heart inexplicably ease down.
“Let’s go.” Qin Jiu instructed, and the carriage slowly moved forward again.
At this moment, Huansheng Street was crowded with many passersby watching the excitement, the coachman had to shout for them to make way, and it took a lot of effort to push through the crowd.
Qin Jiu lifted the curtain on one side of the carriage and at a glance, she saw a woman in blue clothes who was over forty years old and a square face young man around seventeen or eighteen years old standing in front of the gate of the Qin mansion. The square-faced young man held his right hand in his mouth, and drool came out from the corner of his mouth as he giggled silly, while the woman in blue folded both of her hands on her waist as she yelled ferociously.
Qin Zeyu was tightly clenching his fist as he furiously confronted the mother and son, suppressing his anger.
The woman in blue clothes patted the square face young man on the back, and pointed at the gate of the Qin mansion then urged, “Jinpeng, hurry up and call your wife out!”
“Wife, wife!”
Xu Jinpeng yell following his mother’s wishes while yelling and giggling, his neckline was already soaked with drool slipping from the corner of his mouth.
Qin Zeyu endured for a while and finally couldn’t bear it anymore.
“Who is your wife!”
He roared and rushed over, punching Xu Jinpeng hard in the face.
Xu Jinpeng was confused and cried out with a “wah”.
“My Jinpeng!” The woman in blue was startled, she shouted as she rushed forward to protect her son.
