When the cousin saw Qin Jingchang, he hurried over to him and asked, "Did you go to pick up your niece?"

Qin Jingchang quickly replied, "Yes, didn't I just come back? I went to Pudu Temple and found out that my niece was not there at all. I also asked a lot of people along the way and finally found out that someone said that they saw the carriage going northwest."

Qin Shu's uncle's home is in Tonglin County in the northwest, south of Jinzhou and north of it, more than a thousand miles away.

My cousin exclaimed, "She went to her uncle's house? Why didn't she even tell me?"

Qin Jingchang smiled bitterly and said, "Alas, it is said that being an uncle is difficult for us. I guess my niece felt wronged and went to her uncle's house to complain."

After that, he sighed again, "Speaking of which, even if her second aunt and I didn't do a good job, all these uncles and brothers in the clan were busy and devoted to us. Didn't she say a word when she left?"

The cousin sighed and said, "Tomorrow is the fifth seventh day of my eldest brother's death, and she won't come back to see her parents off for the last time?"

Qin Jingchang snorted and laughed.

My cousin was extremely worried, as he was not there and there was no place to find him.

Besides, it’s already this late, where can I find it?

After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, I'll go back and discuss with the clan leader to see what to do."

Qin Jingchang said quickly, "Thank you, cousin. Tomorrow is the fifth seventh day of mourning. Shu'er is not at home, but Tai'er has been observing the mourning. After all, my niece is engaged, and if she doesn't listen to us, there is nothing we can do."

The eldest cousin nodded and left without saying anything else.

Qin Jingchang entered the mansion and went to the study in the front yard.

The broken porcelain fragments in the study had been cleaned up, but the treasure cabinet that used to be full was now empty, making the whole study look particularly bare and shabby.

But he didn't care and went straight into the inner room, took out a brocade box from under the bed and opened it gently.

The blood chalcedony bracelet was lying quietly inside.

Qin Jingchang's fingers were shaking with excitement. He stroked the bracelet gently and lovingly, saying to himself, "My dear, you are really my sweetheart!"

As long as we can bring that dead girl back home, it would be best if she would give us the treasure obediently.

If she still holds on to any lucky thoughts, he will definitely let that damn girl know what it means to be "unable to live or die"!

In case he accidentally killed someone, he still had three sons, a daughter, and him and Liu Yinghua.

The whole family tried it one by one.

Even an illiterate country girl like Liu Weiran could be recognized as the master of this magical weapon. With so many people in their family, I don’t believe that not even one of them can do it!

Even if we take a step back and say that, if that damn girl never comes back, will he really be left with nothing?

That damn girl, did she think that everything would be fine if she just put away the store contract?

As long as Baoyi enters the Cheng Mansion and changes her household registration, no matter whether it is that dead girl or the shops and properties under the name of Zuo, they will all belong to their family!

It's all his!

Qin Jingchang thought of what Liu Weiran had said: "Achieving success overnight, enjoying the spring breeze. Glory and wealth, enjoying endless enjoyment!"

Endless enjoyment!

Hahaha!

In the silent room, Qin Jingchang's low laughter like a night owl sounded particularly creepy.

Just as he was intoxicated by the imagination of fine clothes, delicious food and endless glory, the door of the study was suddenly pushed open.

Qin Anning's voice came from outside, "Dad? Are you in there?"

Qin Jingchang quickly wiped the saliva from his lips, closed the brocade box and put it away. He straightened his back and said "um" majestically, "What's the matter?"

Qin An Ning walked in with a sad face, holding the only copy stained with ink, and said to Qin Jingchang, "Dad, look, this only copy has been stained with ink like this. How can I return it to Brother Xie Ning?"

Solitary copy...

It’s priceless!

Those bastards!

Qin Jingchang gnashed his teeth in hatred.

Apart from the shops and properties, there is also this house in his mansion. Almost everything that can be sold has been sold during this period.

The only things Qin Jingchang was reluctant to touch were the treasures in the study.

As a result, they were all smashed to pieces in an instant.

If I had known this would be the outcome, I would have taken all of them.

Liu Yinghua got back 1,500 taels of silver from pawning her jewelry, and spent another 600 taels in the past two days.

Tomorrow is the 57th day of the East Palace’s sacrifice. There is no money in the public account, so the West Palace has to fill the hole.

I still have to buy New Year's goods...

Silver!

It's really something that makes people love and hate it.

When will they be able to spend whatever they want and buy whatever they want without having to be so petty and calculating?

Qin Jingchang sighed and said, "Just tell Master Xie that you haven't finished copying it yet. After the New Year, I'll find you a similar copy and give it to him as compensation."

After sending Qin An Ning away, Qin Jingchang returned to the backyard.

Thinking of tomorrow's May 7th Festival, Qin Jingchang quickly told Liu Yinghua, "You must carefully check the items used in tomorrow's festival. You must use the best."

Otherwise, if those sharp-eyed women in the tribe find anything wrong, they won’t be able to afford to pay the compensation!

Liu Yinghua also thought of it, and said with a sad face: "Oh, this damn girl, where does she get so many tricks from? Even if she is not in the mansion now, she can still make us uneasy."

Qin Jingchang also felt the same way and consoled her: "No matter how difficult it is, once the May 7th Festival is over tomorrow, the days ahead will only get better and better."

As he said this, he gave Liu Yinghua a look that said, "You understand, I understand, and everyone understands."

Liu Yinghua's expression relaxed and she said, "Don't worry, Master. I won't have to worry about it."

Qin Jingchang suddenly remembered, "Bingqing and Yuejiao, haven't they come back yet?"

Liu Yinghua curled her lips and said, "Maybe he saw that the master was in trouble, so he flew away first."

He dotes on these two concubines so much and gives them whatever they ask for.

At the critical moment, doesn't she, his wife, have to help him through the difficult times?

Qin Jingchang felt a little lost and sad, but more angry.

He stood there silently for a long time before humming loudly.

If he doesn’t want to come back, then he won’t come back. When he has a shop and money in the future, what kind of beautiful woman can he not get?

Early the next morning, the couple got up early and went to the East Palace.

The paper items needed for the ceremony were continuously delivered, all of them were bought from the Ma family sacrificial shop that Qin Shu had originally requested.

The whole yard was filled with them.

Qin Jingchang was busy running around, constantly picking up and seeing off guests who came to pay their respects.

After seeing off a group of people, I turned around and saw a thin young man standing in front of the door.

The man was not tall but stood straight. He was wearing a moon-white straight-hem brocade robe with dark cloud patterns, black boots, and a light blue brocade cotton cape.

He has a handsome appearance, extraordinary bearing, a high nose bridge, and slightly frowned eyebrows. He is staring blankly at the plaque on the gate.

For some reason, Qin Jingchang's heart suddenly skipped a beat when he saw this man.

He took a step forward, bowed and asked, "Excuse me, sir, where are you?"

When the young man saw Qin Jingchang, he immediately bowed and asked, "Excuse me, is this the residence of Qin Jingyuan, the head manager?"

The fingers are well-proportioned, white and slender.

The voice is low, clean and clear, very pleasant to listen to.

Qin Jingchang quickly responded, "That's right."
