They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 186 Qin Xiuhe's Unreasonable Argument

Qin Xiuhe was displeased. "In the end, sister-in-law still doesn't trust me! She doesn't treat me like family at all! If she's like this in front of my brother, who knows what she'll do when I can't see her? After our parents passed away, my brother is my only family member. Brother, don't you trust me either?"

A hint of mockery flashed across Madam Qin's eyes: Fool.

Or perhaps it's not stupidity, just being too impatient.

Sure enough, her husband's face immediately turned even uglier.

"Why are you becoming more and more left-leaning? What are you making baseless assumptions about? Your sister-in-law has never said anything bad about you behind your back. Doesn't your conscience hurt when you wrong her like this?"

“Xiuhe,” Madam Qin raised her hand to rub her forehead, looking tired and helpless, “I didn’t interrupt you when you were speaking just now, did I? Why are you so anxious when I let Granny Xi say a few words? You have so many complaints about me, am I not even allowed to speak up? You keep saying that your eldest brother is your only family member, which shows that you don’t take me seriously at all. In the past, you always said that you loved Ning’an more than you loved Tianyao and Tianrui—isn’t he your family member? I don’t know how much of what you said in the past was true and how much was false.”

Caught off guard, Qin Xiuhe was seized upon by Madam Qin, who, in a fit of rage and shame, covered her face with her handkerchief and began to cry and scream: "I only said those things because you were upset and angry! You don't need to find fault with me. You've been waiting to find fault with me for a long time, haven't you? And now that you've finally found something, you're stirring things up in front of my brother! And you still say you didn't have bad intentions! I don't believe it, I don't believe it! You're bullying me, you're all bullying me!"

Madam Qin was also furious, and sneered, "You've got some nerve to turn the tables! You've made it seem like I'm the one bullying you! Since you put it that way, then let's just say I am!"

Qin Xiuhe glared at her hatefully, her eyes filled with venom: "You admit it, you finally admit it!"

Madam Qin was furious: "Yes, yes, I finally admit it! How about Ning'an gives up the Qin family's fortune and leaves it all to your two sons? That way, it won't be considered bullying you, right?"

Qin Xiuhe's expression changed slightly, and she shouted angrily, "What do you mean?"

Madam Qin stopped pretending, stopped acting friendly and amicable, and couldn't keep up the act any longer. "Isn't this what you came here for?"

"Are you trying to frame me? I never meant that!" Qin Xiuhe was even more furious. "It's not that I'm being mean, but Ning'an isn't very bright. He might not be able to keep up with the Qin family's vast fortune. I specifically brought Tianyao and Tianrui back so that the cousins ​​could grow up together and support each other. With Tianyao and Tianrui around, Ning'an won't be easily fooled by outsiders. Aren't I just doing this for Ning'an's and the Qin family's good?"

"Why is it that you all just don't understand my heart? You...you actually accused me of trying to seize the Qin family's assets! Are you trying to kill me? I don't want to live anymore! I don't want to live anymore!"

Qin Xiuhe burst into tears.

Madam Qin was so angry that she couldn't speak.

How could there be such shameless people in the world!
Master Qin was also somewhat stunned, feeling a mix of emotions, including a chill in his heart.

If he hadn't realized what the girl was thinking before hearing her say those words, he would have generally believed her. But now, how could he possibly believe her?

Putting everything else aside, just considering the actions of Zhang Cong, the second-class manager she introduced to the Qin family business who now oversees the warehouses and inbound/outbound warehouses at the docks, Master Qin felt a chill run down his spine.

"Xiuhe, you're overthinking it. Your sister-in-law didn't mean anything by it; it was just a casual remark. Your feelings for Ning'an are truly commendable, and the ancestors of the Qin family in heaven would surely be pleased. Alright, you should go back and rest now."

Is this over?

Qin Xiuhe was furious.

Her sister-in-law wouldn't even let her use the carriage, and a coachman dared to humiliate and bully her. Is that all?
However, since Madam Qin had exposed her intentions in public today, she felt somewhat guilty. She wasn't afraid of anything else, but she was worried that if her elder brother really believed her sister-in-law and became wary of her, things would get complicated. She didn't dare to press the matter further, fearing that going too far would be counterproductive.

But she couldn't let the coachman off the hook. She had to make an example of him.

Qin Xiuhe suppressed her anger and said, "I don't care about anything else, but that coachman today went too far. He didn't treat me like his master at all. My elder brother and sister-in-law have to give me an explanation, right?"

Madam Qin sneered: "I told him long ago that I needed a carriage. He was just following my instructions. What's wrong with that? There are mule carts in the manor, but you insist on not using them and instead try to trample on me, the mistress of the house. I haven't even asked you what your true intentions are yet."

"you!"

"Your sister-in-law is the head of the household, Xiuhe. This is clearly your willful behavior, both morally and logically." Qin Xiuhe retorted angrily, "Fine, fine, you're all bullying me! You all despise me!"

Madam Qin: "Since that's what you think, we dare not keep you any longer. You should go back to the Mo family."

"You're kicking me out!"

“If you’re not comfortable living here, why force yourself? If you continue like this, you’ll only suffer more.”

"."

This is the Qin family home. It's clearly her who started this trouble. If she, as the matriarch, is allowed to stir up trouble and be trampled on, then she really shouldn't be in charge of the household affairs anymore.

They keep saying "bullying" and throwing tantrums, trying to control people. I really don't know who's bullying whom.

She likes to say that, let her say it.

Madam Qin was disgusted and determined not to back down.

Even if the master told her to give way, she wouldn't.

Who can swallow this insult?
"Big brother, you're not going to say a word? Are you... are you still my big brother? You've disappointed me so much!"

Qin Xiuhe covered her face and ran out crying.

Madam Qin: "."

He excels in singing, recitation, acting, and martial arts; it's something you can't learn, you can't learn.

Seeing this, Master Qin felt somewhat uneasy. He glanced at Madam Qin and sighed softly.

Madam Qin was amused and glared at him aggressively: "What does my lord want to say? Why are you hesitating?"

Master Qin laughed at her, "Madam, don't overthink it. Ning'an is also my son. How could I not consider his needs? Xiuhe is right. If Tianyao and Tianrui can take care of each other in the future, it would indeed be a good thing."

"That's what I think too!" Madam Qin sneered. "It's just a pity that when it comes to people, it's useless to just think about things; you have to look at reality."

The reality is that the two brothers would never help Ning An. They would only bully, mock, and belittle Ning An in concert.

She got angry every time she watched it.

After hearing what Madam Qin said, Master Qin also became disheartened.

I'm just feeling down.

He didn't understand. Xiuhe wasn't like this before. How did she change like this?
If they truly support each other, he is not a stingy person; what harm would it be if he gave his two nephews a generous share of the profits?

But the Mo family shouldn't have had such a big appetite.

"Don't be discouraged, sir. When we sent Ning'an to the county school, wasn't it so that he could make some friends who would be helpful in the future? We really made the right choice in sending him to the county school! There's a guy named Liang Mingxuan. You can ask him about him. He's quite close to Ning'an."

Since starting school in the county, Ning'an has become much smarter and knows how to find ways to avoid the two brothers, which has finally made her feel a little better.
