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

Chapter 198 No one can stop them from doing good deeds
No matter how Qin Xiuhe tried to explain or justify herself, claiming that she was just worried and confused, that she was heartbroken for Ning An and was so angry that she just wanted to vent her anger for him, she could not exonerate Su Mama's evil deeds.

Master Qin could not tolerate a nanny using his and his wife's names to cause trouble and create chaos outside.

He also hoped to do more good deeds and give money and rice to accumulate merit for his only son!
Today, after their beloved son fell into the water and came back, he acted as if nothing had happened. Mr. and Mrs. Qin firmly believed that it must be due to the karma of their past good deeds and worship of Buddha.

See, isn't this all the reward for his precious son?
Granny Su has crossed his bottom line!

Therefore, no matter how hard Qin Xiuhe tried, it was to no avail. Master Qin coldly issued an ultimatum: Su Mama must be kicked out first thing tomorrow morning, and from then on, she was never allowed to set foot in the Qin family again.

Qin Xiuhe cried her heart out: "Brother, Granny Su is my head maid. How can you kick her out like this? It's no different from slapping me in the face! Brother, you are so cruel!"

Other matters can be discussed, but obstructing him and his wife from cultivating good karma is absolutely unacceptable. Master Qin said coldly, "If she were a member of my Qin family, based on what she did, tomorrow I would not only kick her out but sell her off. I'm already being very lenient with you. If you still feel uncomfortable about it, you might as well go back to the Mo family first."

How could Qin Xiuhe leave? She was so angry that she cried, but there was nothing she could do.

The four servants who went with them didn't fare any better. They were all beaten and sent to the farm to work in the fields. They could never go back to the main house to do an easy job again.

The four servants were utterly wronged. They hated the mistress and Granny Su to the core. If it weren't for them, they wouldn't have suffered and had their futures ruined.

The entire Qin family was terrified.

Everyone finally understood: in this family, the ones who made the decisions were still the master and mistress. The aunt was, after all, the aunt.
Qin Xiuhe had no choice but to instruct Su Mama to pack her things and send her back to the Mo family early the next morning, explaining that she was worried about the situation in her courtyard and wanted Su Mama to go back and take care of it.

Granny Su was humiliated and dared not stay any longer. She didn't show it on her face, but secretly she was secretly hoping for something better.

After a day of commotion, Qin Xiuhe was exhausted and frustrated, having lost both her wife and her money. She was seething with anger and resentment, sometimes gritting her teeth in anger, sometimes pounding her chest in frustration.

What a great opportunity!
That's it.

If things go smoothly today, she's confident she can persuade her elder brother to bring Ning'an out of the county school. Just one question—what if Liang Mingxuan tries to retaliate against Ning'an? That's enough.

Ning An, this good-for-nothing, is constantly contrasted by his two outstanding sons. I don't believe that his elder brother won't be disappointed in him and won't be tempted to cultivate Tian Yao and Tian Rui.

After all, Tianyao and Tianrui also have half Qin family blood in them.

In the future, the Qin family business will be inherited by Tianyao and Tianrui. Would they really mistreat their own cousin? Ning An will never lack food or drink in his life. What could his elder brother and sister-in-law possibly worry about?

It doesn't matter if the opportunity is lost; she'll wait again.

Qin Xiuhe sneered, her fighting spirit rekindled.

This vast fortune is well worth it.

Unexpectedly, Mo Tianyao developed a high fever in the middle of the night and had a nightmare. He trembled restlessly in bed, screaming in panic, "It wasn't me," "I didn't," "Don't come any closer," which terrified Qin Xiuhe. She hugged him and kept patting and calling his name. Finally, Mo Tianyao suddenly opened his eyes and screamed, "Ah!" He hugged Qin Xiuhe tightly and shrank into her arms, stammering incoherently with fear, "Mother, Mother! It wasn't me, it wasn't me!"

"Alright, alright, Mother knows, Mother knows. Don't be afraid, Tianyao, don't be afraid, Mother is here! Mother is here! Don't be afraid."

Qin Xiuhe felt extremely distressed and repeatedly comforted her.

Because Qin Ning'an had fallen into the water during the day, Master Qin and Madam Qin were worried that he would be frightened and have nightmares at night. Before going to bed, they forced him to drink a bowl of calming medicine and also invited a doctor to stay at the mansion for the night in case of emergency. Unexpectedly, Qin Ning'an slept very soundly and sweetly, while Mo Tianyao had nightmares instead.

He got a readily available doctor at his expense.

His commotion alerted Mr. and Mrs. Qin, who came over together.

The doctor took his pulse, examined his eyes and tongue carefully, and said with an air of maturity, "It's nothing serious. He must have been frightened and had a nightmare during the day. A dose of calming soup will do the trick. By the way, I wonder if the young master was frightened by anything during the day? You might as well tell me, and I can adjust the prescription accordingly."

Mo Tianyao hadn't fully recovered from the nightmare; his eyes were still somewhat dazed, and he kept snuggling into Qin Xiuhe's arms, seemingly oblivious to the doctor's words.

Qin Xiuhe gritted her teeth and said, "It must be because his cousin was—cough, his cousin accidentally fell into the water during the day, and he must have been frightened."

"Nothing else?"

"I haven't left the house since then."

"I see. Children's temperaments are all different. Some will have nightmares if they are slightly frightened, while others will be fine. This is normal. In that case, there is no need to adjust the prescription. Just decoct one bowl and drink it. Take another bowl before going to bed tomorrow night. Take it for three days and see."

"Okay, okay, thank you, doctor."

After seeing the doctor off, Qin Xiuhe also sent Master Qin and Madam Qin away, leaving herself and Granny Su to guard Mo Tianyao. Qin Xiuhe's gaze was deep and unfathomable; no one knew what she was thinking.

The next morning, Mo Tianyao slowly opened his eyes to a bright, clear day.

He let out a soft sigh of relief.

It's good that it's dawn; once it's dawn, there's nothing to be afraid of.

After having breakfast with Qin Xiuhe, Mo Tianyao and his brother had an excuse to have the maids take Mo Tianrui out to play, leaving their eldest son alone to talk.

Mo Tianyao's face turned pale instantly, and he looked at his mother uneasily.

Before Qin Xiuhe could even ask, her heart sank. She refused to give up, unwilling to accept it. "Do you...do you remember what you said during yesterday's nightmare?"

Mo Tianyao was even more terrified. "No, I didn't say anything!"

Qin Xiuhe gripped Mo Tianyao's shoulders tightly. "Tianyao! I'm your mother. I've always been on your side. Tell me the truth now. Only when I know the truth will I know what to do. So, is it you..."

Mo Tianyao struggled instinctively, but couldn't break free.

His trembling body slowly calmed under his mother's resolute gaze. He exhaled a breath of stale air and looked away urgently, trying to explain: "I... I was just angry. I wanted to teach him a lesson. Clearly, Tianrui and I are his family, his own people, but he's closer to Liang Mingxuan and Lu Xiao, always ignoring us. That Lu Xiao is so sharp-tongued, always bullying Tianrui and me, and he doesn't help us either. I couldn't stand it, so I just—I just wanted to teach him a lesson to vent my anger. I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."

I never imagined the water in the pool below was so deep, I never imagined the way the people who fell into the water struggled was so terrifying, and I never imagined that the people who were rescued from the water were so pale and fragile, looking like they could die at any moment.
He was just angry and wanted to vent his anger.
