If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

Li Youlin frowned slightly and said, "The official statement of Jinzhou is that the bandits from Qinglong Mountain came down the mountain to rob and happened to meet the master and his wife on their way back from collecting debts."

Official statement?

Qin Shu's eyes were filled with tears as she said in a sad voice, "The head of Qinglong Mountain and my father have met before. If he wants money, my father is very wealthy. Those bandits kidnapped my parents and demanded a ransom. Wouldn't they get more?"

No need to kill anyone.

Li Youlin sighed silently, "The bandits in Qinglong Mountain have been rampant for many years, robbing and killing civilians, and killing countless passers-by and caravans. I just arrived in Jinzhou and heard that as soon as the news of the master and his wife's murder reached Jinzhou, the Jinzhou governor sent soldiers into the mountains to suppress the bandits."

In this case, it seems that my parents were indeed unlucky and had the misfortune to encounter bandits.

But Qin Shu always had a feeling: the death of her parents was not an accident, but a murder for money!

But these words were without any basis, and she couldn't tell anyone else about them.

There was nothing to say to each other for a moment, and there was silence.

Li Youlin raised his eyes and looked at Qin Shu.

Qin Shu said: "Brother Youlin, you can say whatever you want."

"My mother has been in the Qin Mansion for many years and is now very old."

Li Youlin had just started talking when Qin Shu understood what he meant: Now that Qin Jingyuan and his wife have passed away suddenly, people in this mansion must be feeling uneasy, and what's more, the second master of the West Mansion and his family are eyeing the East Mansion covetously.

I’m afraid the old people in the East Palace are having a hard time.

He wanted to redeem Liu Nanny and Xing'er.

Qin Shu originally planned to let the two leave the house. After hearing this, she did not hide it and said frankly: "The only people I can trust around me now are the nanny and Xiao Xing, and my mother's dowry. There are many things to do right now, and I still need help. But don't worry, brother Youlin, when the time comes, I will let the nanny and Xiao Xing leave."

Li Youlin nodded, "Alright. I will stay in Jinzhou these days. If the young lady needs my help, just send someone to find me in the courtyard with a big locust tree at the door of Tongguan Hutong."

Qin Shu said: "I've got it in mind, thank you Brother Youlin."

"I will find someone to make the things that Miss wants as soon as possible and send them to her in batches."

"Thank you!"

Li Youlin stayed in the mansion for less than a quarter of an hour before saying goodbye and leaving.

In the main courtyard of the West Mansion, Second Madam Liu Yinghua listened to the little girl's report and said with a smile, "You have done a good job. Write down everything that happened over there during this period, and tell me who the eldest lady met and what she said."

The little girl responded softly, "Yes."

Liu Yinghua sighed and said, "I'm not an intolerant person. I don't want to bully my niece because she has no parents. I just feel sorry for her young age. People outside are cunning and I'm afraid she will be deceived again."

"The eldest lady insisted on killing Xiao Tao, and I couldn't go against her will. When the second master is adopted into the family, I will take care of you. You can just rest assured."

Liu Yinghua winked at Madam Qi and said, "Talk to your good sisters as well. After all, I am the boss in your house from now on. You have to know who you should listen to."

The little girl said yes again, took the silver ingot handed over by Madam Qi with both hands, thanked her, and walked out.

Madam Qi dismissed the people in the room, and came to Liu Yinghua and whispered, "I always feel that this young lady is a little weird, and the second wife should be on guard against her. It is said that her foster brother is very popular in the martial arts world. She went to see her foster brother behind people's backs for no reason. She must have some other intentions."

Liu Yinghua sneered and snapped her nails. "When the coffin is brought into the mansion, all the girls and boys in the East Mansion will go to keep vigil for the master. All the people at the main gate and the second gate will be replaced by people from our mansion. Everything leaving the mansion will be carefully checked. Can those jewelry turn into moths and fly out of the mansion?"

Madam Qi smiled and said, "Second Madam is right."

Liu Yinghua thought for a while with a cold face, then asked, "Did you send the 1,000 taels of silver to Baocai?"

"It has been sent over a long time ago. My cousin said that as long as the madam asks, he will definitely do it for you."

"Let him buy some nice clothes and dress himself up. Don't be reluctant to spend the money. When the matter is completed, he will definitely benefit from it. Good days are ahead."

Aunt Qi agreed immediately.

As he was speaking, someone outside the door responded, "The master is back."

Liu Yinghua quickly stood up and went out to greet him.

Qin Jingchang walked in wearing a long cloth robe, holding a purple clay teapot and humming a little tune.

Liu Yinghua smiled and asked, "Master, is there anything you are happy about?"

Qin Jingchang sighed and sat comfortably on the couch that Liu Yinghua had given up. "Just now I heard from the servant of the governor's mansion that Lord Cheng has sent soldiers to Qinglong Mountain. The bandits in Qinglong Mountain have been doing evil for many years, and they are finally going to be wiped out."

Liu Yinghua's eyes lit up and she sighed, "Yes, if the bandits had been wiped out earlier, my brother and sister-in-law wouldn't have..."

She pressed the handkerchief to the corners of her eyes and sighed softly.

"Master and Madam, the coffin has entered the East Palace."

Qin Jingchang and Liu Yinghua jumped up at the same time and looked at each other: the East and West Palaces were separated by a wall, and the deafening cries from the East Palace had already been heard.

The two of them quickly called a maid, took off all their hairpins and jewelry, changed into plain clothes, and quickly left the house.

In the East Mansion, Qin Shu lay on her mother's coffin, crying heartbrokenly, "Mother, mother, please don't leave, please come back to see me...Daddy..."

Nanny Chun and Nanny Liu burst into tears, and supported Qin Shu one on each side, "Miss, Miss, please let the master and his wife return home first."

Qin Shu had cried so much that her whole body was limp. She was completely supported by two maids as she followed the coffin into the main room in the front yard.

The coffin entered the room, and Qin Shu begged the bearers, "Open the coffin, I want to see my father and mother."

Aunt Chun cried and advised, "Miss, please don't watch it..."

"No, I want to see. Let me take one more look, just one look..." She hasn't seen her parents for many years, not even in her dreams.

She was so disappointing that she gave away her parents' life's work to others and ended up dying in vain.

I guess her parents also hate her for not living up to her expectations...

She kept begging, "Just take a look, let me take a look... This is the last time, from now on, I will never see them again..."

Qin Jingchang and Liu Yinghua hurried over and tried to dissuade her, "Niece, your uncle understands your feelings. But the deceased has been put into the coffin, so it's not good to open it."

"Those are my own parents, they are my parents!" Qin Shu cried until she was hoarse, choking with sobs, "Why don't you let me see? Why?! How can you be so cruel..."

Seeing Qin Shu's eyes tearing up in pain, Nanny Chun shouted, "Open the coffin and let the young lady take another look at the master and his wife."

"How dare you!" Qin Jingchang stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped Nanny Chun in the face, "You ungrateful old dog, my niece is ignorant, what are you doing making a fuss about, old dog?! Someone come here!"
