After rebirth, I became a national teacher

"Anyway, they haven't seen my cousin's grandson, so they won't be caught. Besides, the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion will soon return to the capital, and by then, the abbot of Cihang Temple will never know who he is treating, so he naturally won't blame my father-in-law and his family.

"Look, isn't it done without anyone noticing?"

Teacher Qiao was very proud of himself for coming up with such a brilliant idea.

However, he never expected that Qin Zhenniang would reject such a perfect plan without even thinking about it:

"No! The master of the temple has great magical powers. If he is found to be deceiving me, he will definitely severely implicate my father and the others!"

Teacher Qiao was secretly annoyed that Zhenniang had become disobedient, but his face showed an expression of distress and worry:

"Madam, to be honest, I have already told Lord Zhang about this. He promised me that if I could cure Master Pei, he would let Zhang Hanlin accept me as his disciple. If I fail to do so, I will definitely offend the Zhang family. Not only will your husband and I lose our bright future, I am afraid that even my father-in-law and others will be angered by the Zhang family!"

Qin Zhenniang looked at him blankly.

He actually acted first and asked for permission later, using his own future and her family's family to force her to do something.

She looked at Teacher Qiao for a while, and finally sighed:

"Okay, I'll go back and tell my parents tomorrow morning. But I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."

Teacher Qiao immediately showed joy:

"If my lady takes action, nothing can fail!"

He was very proud of his method of acting first and asking for permission later, forcing Zhenniang to compromise.

Qin Zhenniang did not waste any time. Early the next morning, she immediately asked someone to harness a carriage and go to Qin's house.

Just then, the abbot said that everyone had worked hard in disaster relief and should wait until the first day of the new year before going up the mountain, so the whole family stayed at home.

Upon learning that Zhenniang had suddenly returned to her parents' home, both Old Lady Qin and Qin Dafu and his wife were full of doubts.

When Zhenniang entered the main hall, she saw her grandmother and parents were there, so she didn't waste any words, and immediately asked the attendants to leave, and then went straight to the point:

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, I have something important to say."

"My husband is obsessed with this. He wants to ask the examiner Zhang's brother to be his teacher. He wants the master to treat the young master of the Jingnan Marquis's mansion!"

Qin Dafu frowned immediately:

"He's actually still planning on the Zhang family! Zhenniang, go back and tell him, don't even think about it!"

"As the son-in-law of my Qin family, I must not try to get close to the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, which has a grudge against the Cihang Temple!"

Zhen Niang nodded:

"My daughter understands how important Cihang Temple is to our Qin family, so she came back to remind you. You don't know, he called me before..."

Then he told Qiao's friend about his plan to deceive the world, and then warned:

"If he knew you wouldn't agree, he might think of other ways to deceive you. You'd better be careful not to fall for his trick!"

After the chief examiner, Mr. Zhang, appeared, my husband has become more and more greedy and obsessed with money.

If it only involved herself, she could support him unconditionally.

But once this matter is exposed, it will cause great damage to the Qin family.

My parents and grandmother are already quite old. If they get seriously ill one day, they might need the master to save their lives.

She couldn't harm her family who had always loved her for the sake of her husband's future.

Zhenniang's words made the three elders very happy, but they also became worried about her situation.

Madam Qin was the first to say:

"My son, if you fail to accomplish your task, will he make things difficult for you?"

Zhenniang acted as if she didn't care:

"At most he ignores me for a few days, but I have Yuan Ge'er, what else can he do to me?"

Qin Dafu suddenly said:

"Before, you didn't agree to his requests, and he often ignored you?"

Qin Zhenniang was stunned for a moment, then quickly said:

"No, how could that be!"

After saying this, he said guiltily that he was going to take a nap and hurried back to his room.

Even after she got married, her parents still kept the house she used to live in for her and did not arrange for anyone else to live there.

When I go back to my parents’ home, I often have the illusion that I’m not married yet.

When she walked away, Old Madam Qin couldn't help but sigh:

"Zhenniang's husband is not a good man! She never told us what kind of life she lived, and we don't know!"

Mrs. Qin was also very sad:

"Oh, it's all my fault. I didn't realize he was such a person! But now he's married and has a child. What else can I do?"

Qin Dafu pondered for a while and made up his mind:

"Teacher Qiao is now obsessed with getting close to the Zhang family. I'm afraid he has gone a little crazy. For now, we have to let Zhenniang bring Yuan Ge'er back to live with us for a while, lest he gets desperate and threatens us with Yuan Ge'er and Zhenniang."

As a businessman, he has seen a lot of things, and he always prepares for the worst-case scenario when it comes to human nature.

Madam Qin also agreed and added:

"Just say I'm sick and miss Yuan Ge'er and Zhen Niang, so that they can stay in the Qin family with a legitimate reason."

Filial piety is more important than anything else. Old Madam Qin has the highest seniority and no one can surpass her.

Qin Dafu nodded:

"I will go with Zhenniang to pick up Yuan Ge'er later."

Then he said to Madam Qin:

"Madam, please go to the mountain in person and tell Taoist Master Huiyun about this matter, and also ask the temple master and others to be on guard."

He said this with some sadness.

"Alas, the Zhang family and the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion all know the master's ability. I'm afraid Cihang Temple will be troubled in the future. After all, it was our family's carelessness that brought trouble to Cihang Temple. If you take the initiative to apologize and say that we know we are guilty, then our Qin family will not be considered for the disaster relief reward."

In this case, I don’t know if it can be said that the merits and demerits offset each other.

After the discussion, Qin Dafu went to find Zhenniang in person.

Zhenniang already felt guilty for not keeping her mouth shut, which had caused her family to suffer unnecessarily. Naturally, she did not object to her father's idea.

When the two returned to Qiao's house, Teacher Qiao couldn't wait to ask how things went.

Zhenniang said that as soon as she returned, her grandmother fell ill and said she wanted to see Yuan Ge'er. She had no time to tell him what he had asked her to do.

Teacher Qiao didn't want to upset the Yue family at this critical moment, so he could only remind Zhenniang to find an opportunity to talk about business as soon as possible, and then he diligently sent the mother and son to visit Qin's house.

Worried that Cihang Temple was unprepared, Mrs. Qin sent someone to drive up the mountain at noon that day to deliver a letter of apology.
