Chapter 445

Qin Zhun, Madam Su, and Qin Xin, she had cared for them in the past, and yet now how could none of them repay her? It was because she was old and confused, she did not know people well, and almost killed herself and the whole family!

Old Madam Qin felt as if she had been crushed by something.

"...... " Qin Xin's expressions turned ugly once again.

Seeing her dawdling, Qin Jiu said leisurely. "Li daya, do you want to go to Jingzhao to talk about it?"

Qin Xin gritted her teeth and said, "I'll give it, I can just go take the money when I get back!"

From then on, after settling silver with the Qin family, she would have no further connection with them! She would never come here again to beg!

Qin Jiu casually said, "These shops should have five thousand taels when converted to cash."

Qin Zening had a clear idea of the value of these shops and calmly watched as her sister began to speak up again.

"In an hour, I'll have someone send the silver ticket." Qin Xin did not want to make a fool of herself by staying here and left after dropping these words.

Qin Xin was no longer a member of the Qin family, so naturally she could not be allowed to walk around the marquis' mansion as she pleased, and immediately a maidservant followed her out.

Qin Xin left, but the air in the room was still filled with a depressing atmosphere, even Old Madam Qin who was used to smelling incense felt stuffy.

Although they got the shops back, Old Madam Qin was still upset and said angrily. "A'ning, you should report it to Jingzhao..."

"Grandmother, don't worry, I have the numbers*." Qin Zening calmed Old Madam Qin and assisted her in sitting down on the kang.

(*often describes a person who is confident or understands the situation)

Qin Zening calmly exchanged a tacit look with Qin Jiu.

Of course, they had no intention of letting Qin Xin just go like that.

Yesterday, when Qin Zening sent two guards to Huizhou to find Physician He, they returned and told him that Physician He's family had gone back to Shuzhou. Hearing this, Qin Zening was disappointed and angry.

Shuzhou was a sparsely populated area with long-distance travel, and it would take a month to complete each trip, let alone find someone in a vast number of sea people. They only know that Physician He's hometown was in eastern Sichuan, and it may not be possible to find anyone even in a few months or even a few years...

Under this current situation, even if they reported to the officials and accused Qin Xin of murdering the late marquis, there was no witness or physical evidence, so Qin Xin would not be convicted.

How could Qin Zening be willing to let Qin Xin continue to roam freely? He hated Qin Xin so much that he wanted to kill her immediately with his hand and repay her debt with blood, but Gu Zezhi stopped him. "Qin Xin is insignificant, not enough to let you carry out the crime of murder."

"She doesn't deserve it."

Gu Zezhi's words seemed to pour a bucket of cold water on Qin Zening, calming him down.

Qin Xin does not deserve it.
