My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

When Shiyi heard Qin Junyi's question, he immediately told the whole story without any concealment or bias, including the incident of sending candy.

At this moment, he threw all the previous assumptions behind him and no longer cared about protecting himself wisely. He only followed the most basic responsibilities and qualities.

After hearing this, the color on Qin Ruolan's face faded, and she looked at Shiyi in disbelief, her eyes full of shame and embarrassment at being exposed in public.

Qin Mu couldn't help but go overboard and spoke before Qin Junyi: "Miss, are you crazy about trying to throw away your prestige? Do you know that your coquettish behavior almost ruined a person!"

Qin Mu felt so regretful that he could not breathe when he thought about Qingxuan who once delivered a message for him and was sentenced to be a personal friend by his father, thus enduring pain that was worse than death.

If time could go back again, he would rather die in the Shadow Guard Camp than ask Qingxuan to send a cry for help to his elder brother again.

Qingxuan returned to the position of leader and became a rare successor, but he was only superficially beautiful, and his body had long been ruined. He endured the torment of hidden injuries all the time, and he had reached the end of his strength.

Qin Junyi found that Qin Mu once again evoked the nightmare of the past, and immediately sent him away: "Third brother, you have nothing to do here. Go look at Uncle Qian's list of employment specialties and help me form a carpentry team. They concentrated on making rammed earth plywood, doors, windows, furniture and other supplies.”

After hearing this, Qin Mu looked at Qin Junyi and then woke up.

The eldest brother is not the father. Since Shiyi was spared last time, he will not be held accountable again. Shiyi's performance this time is acceptable, and he won't be forced to leave the camp again.

Thinking of this, Qin Mu said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, I'll do it right away."

After speaking, he strode away.

Qin Junyi looked away and said: "Shiyi, I will return to the team tomorrow and find Xiaowu to schedule."

Shiyi's face was filled with surprise and he immediately leaned over to respond.

"Go down first."

"Yes."

Without squinting his eyes, Shi Yi took a few steps back and turned around to leave.

He has no other choice but to fulfill his duties faithfully. Even if there is, he doesn't want to choose.

For the rest of his life, he had only one belief: to do his best to repay his master's kindness.

After Shiyi walked away, Qin Junyi leaned on the wheelchair, rubbed his eyebrows, and asked: "Lan Lan, what do you want to do?"

"I just haven't seen Shiyi for a long time, just wanted to say hello." Qin Ruolan replied in a low voice.

Qin Junyi looked at her closely: "Do you like Shiyi?"

"I didn't!" Qin Ruolan rejected it without thinking.

She once had this thought, but she couldn't cross the gap between master and servant in her heart.

She didn't want to get married and become the laughing stock of others.

Qin Junyi took in all her expressions, "Then who do you think Shiyi is?"

"Friend...friend."

Qin Junyi sneered: "Is this how you treat your friends?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruolan's face was filled with blood and she was completely speechless.

"Do you know that you are already a commoner? Everyone is busy living their lives now, but you are the only one who is still immersed in your own emotions and refuses to open your eyes."

Qin Ruolan was speechless and choked, feeling full of grievances.

What do you see when you open your eyes?

It was to see my mother try her best to return to the Qin family.

Or is it that the second brother has become a guard and can't even straighten his back?

Or, do you want her to see the eldest brother who only gives all his tenderness to his grandmother and Su Yunwan, and has a majestic face towards others, including her and the second brother?

The few people she cared about most had all changed beyond recognition. Only she was still where she was, thinking about the warm days of the past.

However, she did not dare to say a single word of these words for fear of offending her elder brother and being severely punished.

Su Yunwan had seen many kinds of people, and she could probably tell what Qin Ruolan was thinking.

It’s just that things in the world are changing and cannot be changed by humans.

The entire Qin family was swept forward by the tide. If Qin Junyi did not struggle to find a way out and just immersed himself in the old dream of prosperity like her, then the whole family would have been buried under the imperial power. How could she still be like her? Are you so sad now?

Summer insects cannot be said in words, Su Yunwan did not say anything to explain, so as not to waste his words and maybe make him feel embarrassed.

Seeing that Qin Ruolan was still unrepentant, Qin Junyi shook his head and said, "Today's incident has seriously affected the family's reputation. I asked my second brother to lead people to build another thatched house, and you and your mother can move there together."

"I don't want it!" Qin Ruolan was completely panicked. She couldn't care less about the injury on her knees and knelt in front of the wheelchair. She tightly grabbed Qin Junyi's long sleeves and begged, "Brother, I know I was wrong. You can punish me no matter what." , just don’t kick me out of the house, I beg you.”

Qin Junyi remained unmoved: "Do you still remember the clan rules?"

"I..." Qin Ruolan froze immediately and could no longer say anything about being punished.

Nowadays, it is an unforgivable sin for a woman to have a private affair with a foreign man, and most wealthy families will severely punish it to prevent such a thing from happening.

The rules of the Qin family clearly stipulate that if an unmarried woman has a private affair with an outsider, she will be forced out of the house and become a sister-in-law, or she will be given three feet of white silk and hang herself from a beam.

No matter which one, Qin Ruolan can't bear it.

Qin Junyi turned the wheelchair and turned around to leave. Qin Ruolan rushed over and tried to defend herself: "I just said a few words to Shiyi, and there is absolutely no personal relationship!"

"That's why I just let you stay out of the limelight for a while."

Qin Junyi also wanted to take the opportunity to let her experience folk life and open her eyes to take a good look at this world.

"I know that my words and deeds are wrong and I deserve to be punished. Kneeling, caning, flogging...anything is fine, just don't drive me away. I don't want to leave the house!"

If you just live outside with your mother, it will be extremely difficult to return to the Qin family!

Qin Junyi didn't want to say any more and forcefully opened Qin Ruolan's fingers.

Then, Wu Shaohan stepped forward to stop Qin Ruolan, preventing her from getting entangled again.

"Brother, listen to me, don't leave!" Qin Ruolan kept struggling.

Suddenly, a plain handkerchief fell from her body. From the dark green color and material style, it could be seen that it was definitely not a woman's.

Qin Ruolan's voice stopped suddenly, and her pupils dilated to the extreme.

The eyes of the four people present were all focused on Supa floating on the ground, and they could hear the needle drop for a moment.

"I picked this up and was trying to find the owner." Qin Ruolan was quick to think and tried to take it out.

Qin Junyi looked at her with cold eyes and said "Xiao Wu".

Wu Shaohan immediately leaned over, picked up Supa, and held it up with both hands.

Qin Junyi didn't answer, but looked up at Su Yunwan: "Wanwan, let's go."

"it is good."

Wu Shaohan put away Supa, pushed the wheelchair, and the three of them gradually left.

Qin Ruolan looked at their backs and wanted to cry but had no tears.

The sun's shadow is slanting to the west, Jicheng Mansion Office.

As soon as Chang Shi's nephew and the government servants returned to the Yamen, they went to Chang Shi to sue the Qin family for resisting.

The noise of moving bricks last night was so loud that it was seen or heard by many people outside the city. After nearly a whole day, the city was already buzzing with news.

Dong Jian, the state pastor, naturally also knew about this. He tacitly allowed Chang Shi to call a large number of government officials to arrest people, intending to use both kindness and power to control the Qin family.
