Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 13 Brother and Sister

As soon as the onlookers heard what Mrs. Li said, they immediately stepped back.

Who doesn't know that the nephew who was raised in Mrs. Li's house is a fool? No matter how lucky Mrs. Li is to marry, her husband has opened a butcher's shop on the front street of Anfu Hutong and has made a lot of money in these years.

There is only one brother in Mrs. Li's family. A few years ago, the dam broke. Both husband and wife died in the flood. Only Mrs. Li's nephew was left. This nephew was taken home by Mrs. Li since he was a child.

Keep it.

Because when he was born, this nephew could not cry or laugh, and looked stupid and stupid.

Doctors all said that he was probably not very clever.

As expected, the older I get, the dumber I get. As I get older, my legs and feet are still becoming less flexible. A few years ago, I was completely paralyzed in bed.

Qin Wan's appearance, looking at Anfu Hutong, there is no other girl who can compare with Qin Wan.

To put it bluntly, her cold and handsome appearance, yet still a bit pretty and dignified, would be a big draw in Yanliu Alley.

I'm afraid that Mrs. Li has had Qin Wan's idea in mind since she let the brother and sister live here.

Everyone also knew that Mrs. Li always said that only one of the ten sentences was true. Seeing how pitiful the brother and sister were, they did not want to become Mrs. Li's accomplice and embarrass the poor brother and sister.

"You're talking nonsense!" Qin Wan, who was wearing a green shirt, was originally huddled behind her brother. Seeing Mrs. Li's confusion, she trembled and took a step outside. She bit her lip tightly and raised her head to look directly at Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li put one hand on the bluestone floor and used strength with her feet. Then she slowly stood up and said coldly, "Today, if you can't pay the rent you owe me, this old woman, then we will go to the government and let the official official judge!"

"It's their fault that they owe you rent, but how can you, a mother-in-law, talk nonsense? You clearly didn't say that you only owed ten days' rent, so why are you confusing the truth now?"

After watching the show for a long time, Song Jinyue felt a little tired and wanted to go home. Only then did she stand up to comment. After all, she was surrounded by a crowd.

Qin Wan and her brother both turned to look at her.

When Mrs. Li saw Song Jinyue's well-dressed clothes, she felt suspicious. When did these two brothers and sisters have such friendships? No, if they were friends, why did they show up now? She had never seen these two brothers and sisters in the capital for a full year.

Someone had come to see the brother and sister.

Afraid of being a spectator?

Mrs. Li chuckled twice and said sharply, "Are you going to stand up for them?"

Song Jinyue smiled and said nothing.

Mrs. Li clicked her tongue twice, "The two brothers and sister owe me ten taels of rent. One hand pays the money, and the other hand lets them go!"

Song Jinyue was amused when she heard this.

"I wonder how these ten taels are calculated?"

She also knows a thing or two about the rent in Anfu Hutong.

Once you enter the hospital, your rent is only one tael per year, and the imperial court gives each family in Anfu Hutong a tax rebate of 500 wen each year.

"My annual rent for entering the hospital is ten taels!" Mrs. Li glanced at Song Jinyue, and she opened her mouth without any hesitation.

Song Jinyue couldn't hold back and chuckled, "Do you mean to rob?"

"Aunt Li, we have signed a contract, and the rent is one tael of silver a year!" The young man was tall and tall, and his slender body stood tall and graceful in the crowd. Although he looked down and out, how could he be so elegant?

It can't be covered either.

Song Jinyue looked at the young man and was a little confused for a moment. Wasn't this a poor young lady from some family?

She recalled her past life carefully, but there was no trace of the two siblings.

"Qin Sheng, my old lady doesn't know a word of Chinese characters. Why don't I remember when I signed the contract with you? We made a verbal agreement at the beginning, and heaven and earth are proof of it. Could it be that you, the kid, think that my old lady is good because she is old?

Isn’t it possible to bully?”

Mrs. Li angrily glared at Qin Sheng with a pale face. Qin Wan seemed to be frightened and hid behind her brother with her neck hanging down, her head hanging extremely low.

Song Jinyue felt sad when she looked at the ground.

In her past life and this life, she was born in the palace of the Duke of Guo with a soft pillow of gold and jade. She was the most noble lady in the capital. She saw the suffering of the world for the first time.

A feeling of pity and compassion arose in my heart.

Song Jinyue waved her hand, stopping the furious Mrs. Li who was about to roar again.

"I'll pay the ten taels, and they will have no more disputes with you!"

Mrs. Li crossed her arms and laughed sarcastically, "It's good to be handsome, and there will always be a young lady coming to give you money!"

One sentence made Qin Sheng so angry that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

He has read many poems and books, but has he ever been humiliated like this?

His face turned red with embarrassment, and he didn't know how to retort for a moment.

Qiu Yun was about to rush forward to argue with Mrs. Li, but was stopped by her own lady.

Song Jinyue shook her head slightly and signaled Qiu Yun to give the ten taels of silver to Granny Li.

No matter how unwilling she was, Qiu Yun still followed the lady's instructions, took out a purse embroidered with red bean cakes from her arms, took out ten taels of silver, and threw it at Mrs. Li's feet.

Mrs. Li glared at Qiu Yun, and saw the dozen taels of white money falling on the worn-out bluestone pavement. A group of people gathered around her, for fear that others would steal her money.

He hurriedly leaned over and picked up the silver ingot, weighed it in his hand, then brought it to his lips, exposed his silver teeth and bit down hard on the silver ingot.

She frowned slightly in pain, and then she was satisfied and put the silver ingot into her arms.

For the moment, he had no intention of pursuing Qin Wan again.

After getting the silver, she began to despise Qin Wan for her weak body, and was afraid that she would become a burden to her nephew. With these ten taels of silver, she was not afraid that she would not be able to find a wife for her nephew!

"Please follow me and leave here first." Song Jinyue glanced at the two brothers and sisters.

The two of them felt grateful. Following Song Jinyue, the crowd made way for a passage, and then they slowly walked out of Anfu Hutong.

After leaving Anfu Hutong and walking to the busy long street, Song Jinyue stopped and looked back at the brother and sister.

Seeing that there was no place for them, I just heard that Qin Sheng had to take part in this imperial examination.

Turning his head to look at Qiu Yun, he asked, "Qiu Yun, how much money do you still have?"

Qiu Yun pursed her lips and shook her bottomed purse in front of the young lady. The ten taels just now were all her belongings!

I usually go out of the house by carriage and never bring too much money with me.

Song Jinyue was in trouble. Without money, how could she arrange for the two brothers and sisters?

Qin Sheng noticed her embarrassment and looked at Qin Wan. The brother and sister looked at each other and thanked Song Jinyue.

Qin Sheng spoke slowly, "Miss, when we two brothers and sisters earn money in the future, we will definitely pay it back to you. For now, we will take our leave."

Song Jinyue raised her eyebrows slightly, where could these two people go for refuge if they were penniless?

I guess I misunderstood her meaning, so I explained: "Save people to the end. I don't have any money with me now, but I can still arrange a place for you to stay. You're welcome. It won't be too late to pay it back to me when you are in high school."

"

She just said it casually, but when Qin Sheng heard this and saw her recognition of him, the haze in his heart was instantly swept away, and his eyes shone with clear light.
