Chen Qingyu reached out to take it and put it in the palm of her hand. Holding the chopsticks, she glanced at Qin Yuzhen.Miss Qin turned her head, pretending not to know, and reached out to pick up some vegetables.

Master Qin said with concern: "Zhen'er, your body is just right, the mussel meat is stewed badly, you can eat more."

He was eloquent and full of the heart of an old man. Ever since Qin Yuzhen recovered from his illness, he had finally let go of a stone in his heart. Although there was still some haggardness in the corners of his eyes, his brows were relaxed and his expression eased a lot.

"Thank you dad." Qin Yuzhen felt somewhat guilty, "Dad, you should eat more."

Qiu Jun scooped up a bowl of broth and placed it in front of Qin Yuzhen. The father was kind and his daughter was filial, and the atmosphere in the banquet was warm and harmonious. Chen Qingyun couldn't help showing a hint of relief on her face. She looked away and lowered her head to take a sip of her wine.

In this cold weather, wine is a good thing.After Chen Qingyu took a shallow sip, she couldn't help but take another sip. She has always been good at drinking. One cup warms her stomach and two cups warms her body. After drinking a few cups, Qin Yuzhen, who was opposite, couldn't help it anymore. She put down her chopsticks , looked at Chen Qingyu as soon as he turned his eyes. It is a pleasure to drink this wine, but it will hurt you if you drink too much.

Seeing her eyes staring at him, Chen Qingyun smiled at Qin Yuzhen and put down the cup tactfully.

The two people have a long-lasting relationship, and they communicate with each other, which makes the old man next to him very uncomfortable.

The three of them talked while eating, but Qin Yuzhen's condition was just right, and his appetite was always not very good, but after eating half a bowl of food and a bowl of soup, he put down his chopsticks.

Qiu Yun brought a cup of warm water, Qin Yuzhen held up his fingers, dipped his hands in the water to wash his hands, and then quietly accompanied him.

Master Qin was too strong to drink, and after drinking two cups with Chen Qingyu, he became a little tipsy.

"Zhen Er, after dinner later, you come to my study, Dad has something to tell you." Qin Zhongkun said.

Qin Yuzhen glanced at Chen Qingyun.

"Got it, Dad."

--------

There are several study rooms inside and outside the Qin family, of which the outer study room is the largest. Usually, the big shopkeepers of those shops enter the house for business affairs or monthly account balances are done in the outer study room.If there are distinguished guests from the Qin residence or the father and daughter of the Qin family are discussing matters, they usually stay in the study in the front yard.

Lanterns were neatly hung under the eaves on both sides of the veranda. When Qin Yuzhen came down from the veranda, he saw a young man who was always working in the inner study come up to him, "Miss, the master has been waiting inside for a while."

"Yeah." Qin Yuzhen went up the stone steps, "I will send someone to send my uncle back later." Qiu Yun who followed hurriedly followed.The study is divided into two rooms, inside and outside. Qin Yuzhen walked around a screen after entering the door, and saw her father sitting at the table.

"father."

Qin Zhongkun nodded, asked her to sit down, and then said: "Zhen Er, your Lin Shibo sent someone here a few days ago."

Qin Yuzhen remained silent, "..."

Qin Zhongkun looked at her, picked up a letter from the table, "Zhen Er, take a look, is this written by you?"

This envelope is the kind of chu paper commonly used by the Qin family, and Qin Yuzhen knew it was her own handwritten letter without even looking at it.When Lianzhou came to visit a few days ago, she guessed it.But she was still ill at that time, so her father didn't mention it.Now that the letter is here, the father and daughter don't need to say it, they both know it.

"This letter was brought to me by you Lin Shibo, Yuzhen..." Qin Zhongkun sighed at this point, "Since ancient times, the poor do not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with officials. Although your father and I are not afraid of these people Officials, but they have always been unwilling to make enemies with them. A few years ago, the Wang family father and son wanted to use their power to suppress others. Your father and I spent a lot of effort to turn things around. Although the official position of Wang Zhifu is not big, he Anyway, he is still an official of the emperor's family. If things can be turned around, we don't have to go to this step..."

Old Master Lin of Lianzhou and Qin Zhongkun have been close friends for decades, and whenever something happened to the Qin family, the Lin family would definitely not stand idly by.Although Mr. Lin retired at home and had no power or position in his hands, he had many disciples. There were several third- and fourth-rank officials who were officials in the court alone. They are some disciples of Mr. Lin.

"Father." Qin Yuzhen felt dejected, "That Wang En is cruel and merciless. If it weren't for God's blessing, I probably wouldn't even be able to see anyone now."

"The Wang family and his son are still sending people to hunt her down. If I don't save her, am I going to watch her go to jail again?"

Seeing his daughter was sad, Qin Zhongkun slowed down his tone and said, "I've been trying to figure out a way to do this. Originally, I wanted to discuss a safe plan. The Prefect Wang has only been in office for a year or so..." Having said that, He stopped, and the matter had come to this point, there was no need to say anything.

"Forget it, since you have already made plans, I won't say more."

To his daughter, Qin Zhongkun was always kind and caring, and when it came to the matter of the daughter's love here, it was really difficult for him as a father to decide.

"I heard that Zhou Cheng was going to be promoted to the prefect of the state, and the seal will be opened in the near future. He has become the master, and this matter is much easier."

Qin Zhongkun said: "Zhen Er, the two of you have not formally married after all, so it is not a formal ceremony if this continues. After a few more days, I will send someone to go to Zhou's mansion. Come to think of it, my Qin Zhongkun's thin noodles, he will still accept it as much as Zhou presents." watch."

That Zhou Cheng was a battalion officer, and he had received a lot of benefits from the Qin family before that, as long as the old man expressed his affection, the Zhou surname would definitely sell his face.

"Daddy, thank you."

After Qin Yuzhen finished speaking, she couldn't help lowering her eyes.Chen Qingyu was not guilty of any major crimes, but she was tortured with a cane in the official yamen, and then imprisoned for more than a few months. Charged with a fugitive.During this period of time, Qin Yuzhen has always been involuntarily attached to Chen Qingyu, on the one hand, it is an uncontrollable love.On the one hand, she was worried about gain and loss and worried that Chen Qingyu would be forced to leave Yunzhou City. The people from the government office were still searching around, but there was no accident. She knew that she would never live in the Qin Mansion for a long time as a fugitive.Although Chen Qingyun has an indifferent temperament, even if he is obedient to her, in his heart, Chen Qingyun is not a person who can submit to everything.She was afraid that Chen Qingyun would leave her, and that she had no tenderness, but that person was far away.Passionate since ancient times hurt parting, and now she couldn't bear to be separated from her in every possible way.

At [-]:[-] PM, Qin Yuzhen came out of the study, and Qiu Yun had already led a few maidservants and waited in the porch with lanterns.

"Miss, it's cold at night, you put on your cloak first."

Qiu Jun put on the cloak for her, and Qin Yuzhen stretched out his hands to fasten the belt, "Master, have you gone back?"

Qiu Yun said: "I'm back, I told you, miss, you won't let me wait, so my uncle went back."

On this midwinter night, the snow and the moon were shining brightly, but even though the wind was no longer blowing, there was still a slight chill in the air.A group of people returned to the East Garden from here, and when they passed an intersection, Miss Qin stopped. If they went south from here, they could only walk half a mile to the South Courtyard.She stood at the intersection for a while, her eyelashes moved, and then slowly turned and left.

----------------------

The winter is cold in Sanjiu. Although it is not the middle of winter, the weather is not cold enough.

Not far from the west city gate, there is a low courtyard with earthen walls. It was only after midnight in the morning, and someone came out of a courtyard near the northwest corner.The man clasped his hands and walked against the wind for quite a while before stopping.

There is a bun shop facing the street here, and the steamed buns just made in the morning are steaming.

"Well, does this guest want some?" asked one of the clerks.

The man couldn't help but twitched his face, swallowed his saliva, turned his head and left.

"...It's really unlucky to meet a poor ghost early in the morning."

The poor man stopped when he heard the voice, "If only before..." He spat hard on the ground, "If only my young master could look at this kind of thing before!"

Qin Tianwang poohed twice angrily, he didn't even have a decent coat on his body, he just wore a shabby jacket, in his current state, he had long since lost the style of a rich young master like before, he was dressed in rags and his feet were The shoes and socks have no roots, and the whole person looks as shabby as possible.Qin Tianwang was so tight that he couldn't even pay for a carriage ride.He walked all the way from the west of the city along the foot of the city to the south of the city. He was cold and hungry all the way. If he hadn't begged for a bowl of hot soup from a family on the way, he would have froze to death on the road.

The copper rings on the two vermilion lacquered gates of the Qin family's main entrance were still polished and shiny, and the lions of the two town houses next to them still looked mighty and wealthy.

Qin Tianwang squatted on the side of a street opposite the Qin Mansion, looked around for a long time, but did not see the door open.It's strange to say that, apart from not opening the front door as usual, the Qin Mansion even turned away guests who came to visit Miss Qin's condition with things from time to time.Anyway, no one in the Qin Mansion knew what was going on.It was rumored outside that Qin Yuzhen, the eldest daughter of the Qin family, was dying of illness, but these days have passed, and the Qin family has not yet held a funeral. Qin Tianwang stared at the gate of the Qin mansion eagerly, he was waiting, he was waiting Then hang a white flag on the gate of the Qin Mansion.If this Qin Yuzhen does not die, he will never be able to recover. If this Qin Yuzhen dies someday, then he will be able to return to the Qin Mansion on the same day. The old man begged him to go back to the Qin residence even with his nose full of snot.

Thinking of this, Qin Tianwang was very excited.He doesn't have any money in his hand now, his concubine starves with him every day, points at him and scolds him every day, if it wasn't for the sake of the woman's birth, he would have already slapped her.He was hungry and squatted from morning to noon, his legs were numb, but he still didn't see any movement from the Qin residence.

"His grandma, I'm afraid you won't die!"

Qin Tianwang cursed, and when he was about to get up to leave, he saw an old woman coming out of the side door next to him.

This woman used to work in the east courtyard. Because her hands and feet were not clean, she was assigned by He Yi to do rough work in the backyard in her early years.

The old woman went out the side door with a bamboo basket, Qin Tianwang thought about it, rolled his eyes, and quickly got up to follow.
