Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine
Chapter 416: Situation
Under Cui Qiyan's secret investigation, part of the accounts of the property belonging to Qin Fangsui and her younger brother, which were managed by the second elder of the Qin family, have been cleared.
Qin Fangsui looked through some of the "evidence" Cui Qiyan gave her and found that the number was larger than she thought.
Just one village, which the second old man said had a bad harvest, had a harvest of more than 400 taels last year, and the shop he said was not doing well actually made more than a thousand taels.
This is only a part of their family property. If all of them are counted...
Qin Fangsui's face became increasingly ugly when she thought that the second old man would only give her two hundred taels of silver at the end of the year.
Previously, their family was in Xinzhou, thousands of miles away from the capital. It would take more than half a month to receive a letter sent back. It was absolutely impossible to take care of the family property.
What's more, my father was devoted to military affairs, and my mother had a temperament that didn't care about anything, so my grandmother had always been in charge of the property in the capital. Later, my grandmother was in low energy, so my second grandfather took the opportunity to coax my grandmother into letting him take care of the family property.
Judging from the account books left by my grandmother, under the care of my second grandfather, the money received was getting less and less every year. No need to think about it, all the money in it went into the pocket of the second room.
Over the years, their second grandfather's room had cost them a lot of money.
Qin Fangsui's hands gripped the edge of the table tightly, her knuckles turned white. Her father sacrificed his life to kill the enemy on the border and guard the country's gate. However, their relatives in the capital were bent on defrauding them of their money, which no one could swallow.
"Girl-" The maid Xianglan came in and interrupted her thoughts.
Qin Fangsui let go of her hand, raised her head and frowned slightly, "I'm not telling you not to
Are you disturbing me? What's the matter? "
"Miss, please forgive me, it's Miss Du who is here..."
"Man Ting is here," Qin Fangsui quickly packed up the things on the table and stood up, "please come in quickly."
When Qin Fangsui went out to greet her, Du Manting also arrived at the door.
"Manting, you're here, please come in."
Qin Fangsui invited the person into the house and saw that she had a sullen expression on her face, so she asked, "What's wrong? Why are you unhappy?"
Du Manting turned her head and said, "Fangsui, I may not be able to stay in the capital for long."
"What's going on over there in Liangzhou?"
"It's not Liangzhou, it's because I can't stay in the capital anymore."
Qin Fangsui said nervously: "Did someone bully you?"
"Who dares? People here don't have the ability..." When Du Manting said this, she suddenly thought of Lu Siheng, and her voice unconsciously dropped.
"What is it that makes you want to leave the capital?"
Du Manting said with a bitter face: "My grandmother and aunt want to see my marriage and ask me to marry back to the capital."
It turned out that it was because of this, Qin Fangsui smiled, "They want to keep you by their side so that they can take care of you in the future. There is nothing wrong with them helping you arrange your marriage, so why do you have to leave?"
"What's the matter? I don't want to marry those weak scholars in the capital who can't lift it with their hands or carry it on their shoulders. They have no manliness at all."
"Not all young masters in the capital are scholars. There are also many who are good at martial arts. You can choose from them."
"Are you talking about someone like Lu Siheng?" Du Manting couldn't imagine them together and shook her head repeatedly, "No, that guy is good at martial arts, but he's useless in other places, especially his mouth. I don't want to be raped early.
He was furious. "
Knowing that the two had a bad relationship that day on their outing, Qin Fangsui often heard her say something bad about Lu Siheng.
"I didn't mention him. People like Mr. Lu are not something ordinary women can marry. There are many other people to choose from besides him. You are not looking for someone to compete in martial arts. Why would you want to find someone with such high martial arts skills?"
Du Manting disagreed, "What is not an ordinary woman? I think the Dong Jiafu he likes is very ordinary. The person I want to marry must be better than me in martial arts. Otherwise, how can he protect me when I encounter danger in the future?"
Lu Siheng really liked Dong Jiafu. Qin Fangsui's eyes flashed, then she covered her mouth and chuckled, "You are already married, so what dangers can you encounter? It's not on the battlefield."
"Why not? I have already said that I will go into battle to kill the enemy. If he wants to trap me in the house, then I will not marry!"
Seeing the serious look on her face, Qin Fangsui sighed: "It's hard to find such a man in the capital."
"So, I can't stay here for a long time. I have to go back to Liangzhou. Otherwise, if my grandmother and aunt make arrangements for my marriage, it will be difficult for me to leave."
"It was originally agreed that you would stay in the capital for a longer time this time, but now that you are leaving, we don't know when we will see each other again." Qin Fangsui said reluctantly.
"I also want to stay with you for a few more days, but in this situation I have to leave. My grandmother told me that before I came, my father had agreed that they would arrange the marriage for me, and I had to leave."
Qin Fangsui nodded and couldn't help but think of herself again, "You still have relatives who are interested in your marriage, but I don't even want it."
"Fangsui, you have to think on the bright side. No one will interfere with your marriage. That's not what you want."
Marry whomever you want? " Du Manting comforted.
A wry smile appeared on Qin Fangsui's lips, "It's not as easy as you said. There are some people I can't marry if I want to."
Du Manting cursed herself secretly, and then said the wrong thing to remind Fangsui of Prince Dingguo.
She quickly made up for it, "Look, I'm leaving, so don't think about these unhappy things. I still haven't gone to many places in the capital, so you can go out with me."
"Okay, it's all up to you." Qin Fangsui quickly calmed down.
The two of them walked out the door and watched.
Du Manting was full of energy and took Qin Fangsui to look around.
Although Qin Fangsui also came from a general family, General Qin never taught her a single move. It didn't take long for her to lose her strength and gradually fall behind.
Du Manting turned around to find out and then turned back, "Are you tired?"
"I can't walk anymore..." Qin Fangsui didn't show off.
Du Manting helped her look around, then pointed her hand and said, "Let's go to that teahouse to rest for a while."
Qin Fangsui nodded quickly. She wanted to find a place to sit now.
When the two entered the teahouse, they found that there were quite a few people inside.
"You two girls, please come inside-" The waiter in the teahouse greeted him with a smile.
"Do you have a private room here?" Du Manting asked.
"Yes, but they are all full."
Qin Fangsui looked at the crowd of people and hesitated: "Man Ting, why don't we go."
Hearing this, the waiter immediately tried to keep the guests, "The two girls arrived at a good time. There is a table at the front, so there won't be too much interference, and you can hear the stories told by the storyteller clearly. We have tea here." The snacks and dim sum are also a specialty in Beijing, would you two girls sit down and try some?"
"And Mr. Storyteller?" Du Manting has
interest.
"Yes, the story is exciting. Many guests are here specifically for this. The next show is about to start. If you two want to hear it, I will arrange it for you."
Du Manting turned her head and said, "Fangsui, how about we listen first, and then leave if it doesn't sound good."
Seeing her interest, Qin Fangsui agreed.
Du Manting happily told the waiter, "Take us there."
But the waiter said: "The location in front is the best and the price is higher..."
Before he could finish speaking, Du Manting interrupted, "Do you think we are people who can't afford money?"
"No, no, no, the two girls are of extraordinary origin at first glance. The younger one is just reminding the two girls as usual, please don't misunderstand." The clerk explained quickly.
"Then take us there quickly, we're all tired."
"Girls, please come this way." The waiter led the two of them inside.
