Qin Minghong smiled.

‘Yes, I want to go back.” He casually broke a plum blossom branchwith a faint smile and a deep gaze. “After all, Ah Tao is right. Not to mention that running away won’t solve any problems, I don’t want to leave any regrets in my life.” He had to seek justice for himself!

His good stepmother had a hypocritical gentle and kind face. She had deceived his father for so many years. He had to personally tear off that human skin mask, right?

In the past, he did not dare to face it. But now, he had the courage.

“1 plan to leave tomorrow.” Qin Minghong played with the plum blossom in his hand and smiled gently. “Actually, that Master Song in my residence is really not bad.”

‘Ten years ago, His Majesty Emperor Tianqi appointed Master Song as the third place ranker of the imperial examination, but because he was too straightforward and offended a noble, His Majesty disliked him. Later, Master Song resigned from his post and returned to his hometown. However, on his way back, he was almost assassinated by an evil person, and I saved him,” Qin Minghong said softly. “By the way, the person who Master Song offended is the current favored Imperial Concubine Sun.”

The reason why the Sun Family was so noble and illustrious was because Emperor Tianqi favored and doted on Imperial Concubine Sun.

…..
‘Master Song is talented. If you can get his favor, it will definitely be a help to you,” Qin Minghong said sincerely. ‘Shen Yao, if you miss out on a good teacher because of your prejudice against me, you will definitely regret it in the future.”

‘Young Master, you’re being too serious.” Shen Yao smiled faintly. “I don’t have any prejudice against you.’

‘Oh?” Qin Minghong raised his eyebrows thoughtfully. “I have a good impression of Ah Tao. You don’t mind?”

‘Everyone loves beauty. Besides, my Ah Tao is very good. It’s not surprising that she will be admired by other men, right?” Shen Yao smiled indifferently.

It was just that he didn’t realize how much force he used to enunciate ‘my Ah Tao’.

‘Shen Yao, Shen Yao! You’re really interesting!” Qin Minghong was amused by his tone. “But don’t worry. Although I really admire Ah Tao, I’m not someone without a bottom line.”

‘But if you and Ah Tao are separated one day, I won’t miss any chance.”

“That day won’t come.” Shen Yao looked at him with a burning gaze and a firm tone.

The moment their eyes met, they smiled at the same time.

‘Sometimes, when dealing with people who have the face of a beast, you can try to use softness to overcome hardness,” Shen Yao suggested sincerely. “It’s not embarrassing to show weakness. On the contrary, it can sometimes become a more advantageous weapon. Young Master, your biological mother passed away early. Doesn’t your father feel any guilt? If you can use the trace of guilt in your father’s heart, perhaps there will be an unexpected outcome?

When Qin Minghong heard this, he fell into deep thought.

In the past, he had always been defeated by Madam Liu. It seemed that it was because Madam Liu was very good at pretending to be pitiful and soft that she had won his father’s trust!

‘What you said makes sense.”

“It’s getting late. I have to go back and take care of Ah Tao.” Shen Yao could not help but smile when he saw that he understood what he meant. He said softly, “1f Ah Tao wakes up and finds that I’m not by her side, she’ll be worried.

Qin Minghong rolled his eyes. So what if he had a wife?

However, having a good wife like Ah Tao was indeed quite impressive!

Sigh, why wasn’t he the one who met Ah Tao first?

The more he thought about it, the more depressed Qin Minghong became. He also walked down the back mountain.

It was dusk, and the golden sunlight shone on the ground.

After the winter snow melted, tender green grass had already appeared on the steps of the Shen family’s courtyard.

In the room, Ji Zhao rubbed her sore temples and took the hangover soup from Zhao Lanhua’s hand. She drank it in one gulp.

The sweet and sour taste traveled down her throat and finally woke her up.

‘Mother-‘

Ji Zhao held Zhao Lanhua’s arm affectionately and grinned foolishly.

‘You’re not obedient at all!” Zhao Lanhua poked her forehead angrily. Her tone was angry and full of heartache. “Your alcohol tolerance is so bad, yet you still dare to drink so quickly?”

Ji Zhao chuckled. ‘Tm just too happy, aren’t I? By the way, have Big Brother Qin and Second Brother You left?”

‘Yes, they returned to the county city not long after dinner.” Zhao Lanhua suddenly held Ji Zhao’s arm and asked nervously, “Ah Tao, isn’t the New Year’s gift we gave them too shabby?”

‘Huh?” Ji Zhao was stunned, his gaze blank.

“The two guests have given us a lot of New Year’s gifts. Not only are there all kinds of goods, but there are also a few beautiful pieces of fabric. I heard from your elder brother that it seems to be, what, Shu brocade! Just one piece of cloth is worth more than ten taels of silver! Oh right, in addition to these, they also gave us six jars of yellow wine, two sets of good brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone, and two pairs of silver bracelets for children!”

The more Zhao Lanhua spoke, the more uneasy she became. “Ah Tao, I’ve discussed it with your father. These gifts are too expensive. Why don’t we think of a way to return them?”

‘Big Brother Qin and Second Brother You gave so many gifts?” Ji Zhao did not expect them to be so generous.

“That’s right!” The more Zhao Lanhua thought about it, the more worried she became. “Ah Tao, why don’t you and Third Brother send the things back tomorrow? After all, we’re already happy enough that they can come to our house for a meal. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to accept so many gifts!”

‘Mother, if we really send the things back, it would be really inappropriate.” Ji

Zhao shrugged helplessly and smiled. “Just keep them in peace.”

‘Ah? Are we really going to accept it?”

Zhao Lanhua was still a little hesitant.

‘Mother, don’t worry and keep the things.” Ji Zhao smiled faintly, but her tone was exceptionally firm.

After all, the value she could create was definitely far more than this!

‘Mother, can you take me to see those fabrics?” Ji Zhao said with a smile. “Let’s call Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law to choose together?” After a while, the women of the Shen family arrived at the main house.

‘Mother, isn’t this fabric too soft?” Second Sister-in-law Shen was the first to choose a light yellow cloth embroidered with a butterfly pattern. She asked lovingly, “It’s so soft!”

“This is Shu brocade!” Zhao Lanhua said proudly. “I heard that this single piece of material is worth more than ten taels of silver!”

‘So expensive?” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Sister-in-law Shen were dumbfounded!

Especially Second Sister-in-law Shen, who hurriedly let go.

She could not ruin such good fabric.

“The Shu brocade is rich in color and exquisitely crafted,” Ji Zhao explained with a smile. “In addition, the craftsmanship of the Shu brocade is especially complicated, so it’s said that every inch of the brocade is worth gold. In addition, the clothes made of Shu brocade are also especially beautiful. Second Sister-in-law likes this light yellow Shu brocade.. Why don’t you cut it and make a long dress? You can wear it when spring comes! “
