The people around here didn't expect that after watching the fun today, they would actually get to eat so many big melons.
Many vendors selling melon seeds, snacks and hot fruit tea came over, setting up stalls while enjoying the official display.
Sima Ye was given several looks by Cheng Mao, but he didn't dare to speak.
As a result, Qin Jingchang saw him hesitating and sneered, "Sima Ye is still as cowardly as a mouse. His own daughter-in-law has been slept with by Cheng Mao, and his grandson doesn't even know whether his surname is Cheng or Ye. He still doesn't dare to fart!"
Cheng Mao's face turned green.
He shouted, "Come here! Capture this thief for me!"
After saying that, he winked at the government officers and soldiers nearby, asking them to quickly cover Qin Jingchang's mouth.
Otherwise, after today, the governor's office would just be closed!
Qin Jingchang was dragged away, and the onlookers were reluctant to let him go.
Ji Wei looked at Cheng Mao and Qin Shu meaningfully, then turned and walked towards the carriage.
Cheng Mao wiped his sweat, thinking quickly in his mind how much benefits he should give to Chuzhishi so that he could cover up the matter.
Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard Qin Shu calling out, "Master Cheng!"
What else?!
Cheng Mao was going crazy: Why didn't Qin Jingchang kill this damn girl just now?
He was furious and asked in a very unfriendly tone, "What's the matter?"
Qin Shu was not afraid at all. She straightened her back and looked straight at Cheng Mao, saying, "Master Cheng, please return my daughter's engagement letter and cancel the engagement between the Cheng and Qin families."
Qin Jingchang teamed up with outsiders to kill Qin Jingyuan. Even though Cheng Mao did not do it himself, he helped the murderer to eliminate evidence and tried to cover up the truth.
Also an accomplice.
The fact that Qin Baoyi married into the mansion on behalf of someone else was exposed, and Qin Jingchang personally admitted that he had killed Qin Jingyuan.
It is no longer possible for Qin Baoyi to stay in the Cheng Mansion.
If Qin Baoyi is sent back to the Qin Mansion, the dowry she brought into the mansion must be returned at the same time.
Cheng Mao's collusion with bandits was exposed, and he urgently needed money to smooth over the relations between the upper and lower levels.
As a result, Cheng Mao was even more reluctant to cancel the engagement and return Qin Shu's dowry.
But if the engagement is not cancelled, the Cheng family can forcibly carry Qin Shu into the house on the pretext of fulfilling the engagement.
He wants everything and wants to take advantage of every benefit.
How can there be so many good things in this world?!
Qin Shu's lips curled slightly, but her eyes were as cold as ice, "Master Cheng, don't you think that there is still a possibility for our two families to get married?"
Cheng Mao stared at Qin Shu with murderous intent and said coldly: "We will discuss this matter later."
"Since the two families no longer have..."
"Can't you wait until we get back to the government office?!" Cheng Mao suddenly exploded, his face flushed as he shouted angrily: "The deposed envoy is busy with official business, and you are blocking his way here, obstructing his work. What is your intention? Someone, come here!"
"Wait, wait." Ji Wei waved his hands quickly and said, "Master Cheng, please be patient, be patient. It was my idea to let this little girl speak here. I have said before that it is the duty of an official to know the people's sentiments and opinions and to solve their problems. It cannot be considered as obstruction of official duties."
Ji Wei looked at Cheng Mao with a smile, "Sir Cheng, you need to think carefully about how to explain what Qin Jingchang said."
Cheng Mao's face turned pale instantly.
He forced his lips together, laughed dryly and said, "Master Ji is right. But this matter is not as Qin Jingchang said, in fact, it is..."
Ji Wei raised his hand to stop him, "Brother Zhengyuan, this is not the place to talk. We can discuss this matter later. Since the girl is determined to cancel the engagement, and Brother Zhengyuan has previously agreed with Qin Jingchang to marry someone else, why not return the girl's engagement letter to her? We live in the same city, and we see each other every day. If we make a big fuss, it will be embarrassing."
Cheng Mao's face twitched constantly, and he replied with a dry laugh, "Yes. But matters like this are always handled by my wife. When I return home, I will let my wife go to the Qin residence."
Ji Wei then smiled and said to Qin Shu, "Did you hear clearly, little girl? Since Lord Cheng said so, he must keep his word and never regret it. Little girl, the weather is cold, and I have other official business to attend to. Why don't you go back and wait?"
Qin Shu bowed sincerely to Ji Wei and said, "Thank you, sir. I will return home first. Please come back, sir!"
Ji Wei nodded to Qin Shu and Xiao Cheng, got into the carriage and slowly left.
Cheng Mao glared at Qin Shu fiercely.
Qin Shu was not afraid at all and bowed slightly to him.
Cheng Mao also left in a sedan chair.
The yamen runners followed closely behind, carrying Qin Jingchang, who had his mouth gagged, was sweating profusely, and looked pale.
Amid the pushing and shoving, a piece of yellow paper about two fingers wide and an inch long slipped from Qin Jingchang's ankle and was then stepped on by countless feet.
Falling from one foot to the other, the truth talisman, which was covered with residual snow and mud, quickly turned into a pile of mud due to the friction between the soles of the shoes and the ground.
When Xiao Cheng saw Qin Shu was about to get on the carriage, she was about to follow her when her sleeve was grabbed by Nanny Yu.
Nanny Yu raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Cheng with a smile.
Xiao Cheng quickly leaned over to Nanny Yu's ear and whispered in a flattering tone, "Good Nanny, I'll go see what's going on and come back to tell Grandmother and you about it."
Nanny Yu lowered her eyes and looked at her wrist.
Xiao Cheng understood, struggled gently, and after breaking free, he ran away jumping and skipping.
The onlookers were also not satisfied, and after Qin Shu boarded the carriage back home, they followed her one after another.
There is no follow-up plot, it's like meat is placed right next to your mouth, you can see it but can't eat it, that's so frustrating!
As soon as I returned to the street in front of the Qin Mansion, I saw from a distance that Qin An Ning's three brothers, each holding a stick, were rushing towards Qin Shu's carriage with great momentum.
When Qin An Ning saw the huge crowd following behind him, he felt something was wrong and quickly called for a stop.
However, some people in front had already seen him and shouted, "Look, the son of the murderer who killed and robbed people is trying to hit people!"
"That's too much! How dare you be so presumptuous in broad daylight? You don't even know how to bully others when you hide and can't see people on weekdays."
"You eat other people's food, use other people's money, and yet you want to bully them and bully them!"
"This Qin Jingchang still has the nerve to call himself a scholar, always talking about propriety, righteousness, integrity, filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty and faithfulness. It turns out that he is a hypocritical, sinister, vicious and despicable villain."
"Manager Qin has raised a vicious wolf after spending so much money on it for so many years."
"Look at his sons who are trying to stop the girl from killing her. They are not good people either."
"The eldest son of the Qin family is a juren. If such a person becomes an official in the future, he will definitely be a corrupt official who exploits the people."
"Scum!"
"brute!"
"You are worse than a beast!"
Qin An Ning's face turned pale. He slowly took a step back and whispered, "Let's go back first."
Qin Anwen was young, but he was very aggressive. He shouted, "Brother, she sent our father to jail. How dare she come back?!"
Qin An Ning shouted sternly: "Shut up! Go back quickly."
The three men's momentum suddenly disappeared, and they returned to the mansion with their sticks in hand.
Before Qin Shu's carriage arrived, the gate of the West Mansion was slammed shut.
Someone was so angry that he picked up a big stone from the roadside and smashed it on the gate of the West Mansion with a "bang".
Immediately, more people followed suit, picking up stones from the roadside and throwing them into the West Mansion.
In the West Mansion, Qin An Ning and his two brothers hid inside the gate, listening to the sounds of smashing and smashing coming from the door, feeling angry, hateful and helpless: from today on, the reputation of his father Qin Jingchang, which he had worked so hard to build for many years, is completely over!
