If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter
Chapter 188: How Much Feeling
As expected, he was asking about the inheritance of the title.
Qin Shu smiled slightly, "Wasn't it my great uncle who received the imperial edict? When my niece was in the court that day, the emperor didn't mention the posthumous title for my father. It should be the result of the emperor's discussion with the court officials after my niece left."
The great uncle nodded slightly and said, "So that's how it is. The imperial edict only conferred a posthumous title, but did not mention the inheritance. I guess it is not inherited."
After a pause, he asked again, "You are ordered to plant new crops this time. Do you need help? There are many good farmers in our tribe. If you can get them to help you, it will be much more useful than outsiders."
Is this because he sees Qin Shu growing crops in accordance with the emperor's order and wants to make some profit from it?
Too bad, this isn't a good job.
If you are not careful, you may end up losing your head.
Qin Shu's face was slightly cold, but the smile on her lips remained unchanged. "This, my niece's daughter has no say on her own. We need to ask His Royal Highness Prince Yu's opinion. The emperor also appointed His Royal Highness Prince Yu and the officials from various departments to accompany him on this trip. The specific rules have not yet been finalized."
The clan leader looked embarrassed and subconsciously glanced at his eldest son.
Qin Jingtang immediately laughed and said, "Your great uncle didn't mean anything else. These days, people in the clan always come to ask about it. Since your great uncle is the head of the clan, he can't ignore the opinions of the clan members."
Qin Shu said calmly: "Shu'er understands."
Qin Jingtang exchanged a glance with his old father again and said with a smile, "This time Jingyuan was posthumously conferred the title of Marquis. After the angel came to announce the decree that day, many promising students in the clan school received admission invitations from other colleges."
"Also, the magistrates of Changyuan and Tongxiang counties selected some members of the clan who were both good in character and learning to serve in the government offices."
"Those who had received Jingyuan's help and were studying and working outside also returned to the clan. Because Jingyuan was conferred the title, many of them proposed to build a temple for Jingyuan."
Qin Jingtang smiled and said, "My niece had thought about building a temple for your parents before, but after getting busy, the matter was put on hold."
"After everyone discussed it, they all thought it was feasible, so they donated some money and built a shrine for Jingyuan next to the clan school."
Qin Shu lowered her eyebrows and listened quietly.
Qin Jingtang's words were a retreat to advance. He wanted to impress Qin Shu with the matter of Jingyuan Temple, and then further test how far Qin Shu could help the clan.
Qin Shu thought for a moment and said softly, "I understand what my great-uncle meant, but my power is limited. If the clan members want to succeed, they have to study hard for many years and work hard for generations."
"My father was just a businessman who suffered a lot because of his low status. He funded the clan school to give the clan members a step to move up. No matter how much strength he has, he can't support the entire family."
"Same for Shu'er."
"My great uncle should know that after my parents are posthumously honored, they can build their own temple and offer sacrifices to them. But Shu'er has never had such a plan."
"It's just that Daddy's dedication to the Qin family over the years is not all for the sake of repaying the favor. He truly regards himself as a member of the Qin family and the Qin clan members as his relatives."
"If Shu'er insists on moving my parents out of the Qin Clan's ancestral hall, I'm afraid my parents will be restless and unable to rest in peace."
Qin Shu's eyes were slightly red, but she quickly concealed the bitterness in her heart, "The clan members remembered his kindness and built a temple for him. I think if my father knew about this, he would be very relieved and would be smiling in his grave."
These words made the clan leader and Qin Jingtang blush and speechless.
The Qin clan built a temple for Qin Jingyuan, so they should get their share.
After receiving Qin Jingyuan's favors for so many years, he still had the audacity to ask for favors by building a temple for him.
The purpose of leaving Qin Jingyuan's tablet in the clan was to pass on the convenience brought by the honor bestowed by the emperor to the clan members.
The steps have been paved for you, but instead of thinking about how hard you have worked, you always think about getting something for nothing and climb up by stepping on the shoulders of others.
Even if you are given the opportunity to climb up, you will fall down even harder due to your lack of ability.
Qin Shu came out of the clan leader's house and remained silent on the way back.
Even Fubao could sense that she was in a bad mood.
Fu Bao was a simple-minded person who thought things through clearly. Seeing that his young lady was in a depressed mood, he quickly asked, "Young lady, why don't you move the tombs of the Marquis and his wife?"
The Marquis was not originally a member of the Qin family, but was just an adopted son of the Qin family.
Besides, the person is already dead, how would he know where he is buried?
Whose incense are you receiving?
Qin Shu smiled lightly but did not answer.
Why doesn't she want to?
But now, she doesn’t even know where her future lies, so how can she let her parents suffer with her?
When she is truly settled, she no longer needs to worry about the future...
By then, she would definitely bring her parents out.
Buy a piece of land for them to cemetery and move there with great ceremony.
But what if...
She could not escape this disaster, but as long as her parents stayed in the Qin family, they would not be cut off from the incense they worshipped.
After all, she and her clan were just using each other.
The clan used her to get what they wanted;
She used the clan's place to place the spirit tablets of her parents and offered incense to them.
Qingsang saw that Qin Shu didn't say anything and heard the footsteps coming closer and farther behind her. Seeing that Fubao wanted to ask more questions, he quickly reached out and pulled her.
Fubao quickly shut his mouth.
By this time it was already dark, and the houses in Qinjialing were all shrouded in the twilight, with their shadows barely visible.
Wang Sheng and Zhang Xing were holding lanterns one after the other, Fubao was also holding a palace lantern, and Qingsang was supporting Qin Shu.
The master and servants soon arrived at the ancestral house.
Wang Sheng rushed forward and was about to open the door when he saw a dark shadow suddenly pounce at Qin Shu's feet and grab her legs.
Qin Shu was so frightened that she screamed.
Zhang Xing stepped forward, grabbed the man by the collar, and was about to drag him away when the man started to cry out, "Niece, please be kind and help us get back to peace."
Qin Shu's face darkened instantly, and she shouted angrily, "Let go!"
Lai held onto Qin Shu's legs and refused to let go. When Zhang Xing pulled her, she screamed desperately, "Help! This is molesting!"
The surrounding neighbors were instantly attracted.
Seeing this, the eldest aunt, who was far behind, ran over and pulled Lai up, asking repeatedly: "Hey, sister-in-law, what are you doing? Get up quickly!"
Lai wiped her tears and cried bitterly, "I really have no choice. Our Qi'er has always been a good student, but now... he can't continue his studies."
The eldest aunt sighed and said, "Didn't the clan school kick him out? Why can't he continue studying?"
Fu Bao said sarcastically, "Why else? I can't eat the free meal anymore."
Qingsang pulled her hard.
Fubao said loudly, "Sister Qingsang, why are you pulling me? I will tell you even if you pull me. I was there that day and heard it all."
"Miss has already said that anyone who stands with the enemy who murdered Miss's father is also Miss's enemy."
"Wasn't he quite strong-willed at that time? What happened? Did he know that strong-willed people can't make a living?"
