Chapter 119 The little uncle picks up the elder sister
When Old Man Zhao and Xunshi came to the village where they lived, the Qiu family had already agreed to marry him to a businessman as their second wife.
If Qiu Yingzhi had not been a juren now, they were afraid of affecting Qiu Yingzhi's reputation, so they wanted to give Miss Zhao to another merchant as a concubine. The merchant gave more money.
Old Man Zhao was furious when he heard the news.
You should know that the businessman is in his thirties and can already be Miss Zhao’s father.
The Qiu family was betrayed and the child raised his son-in-law became an adopted daughter. Old Man Zhao could understand that the Qiu family ruined Miss Zhao like this, but Old Man Zhao couldn't stand it anymore.
Originally, Old Man Zhao was still a little grateful to the Zhao family, so he wanted to bring the gift to the Qiu family to thank them and then take Miss Zhao away.
But after knowing that they were unauthentic, Old Man Zhao had someone secretly take Miss Zhao away and take Miss Zhao away directly.
The Qiu family lost their adopted daughter and could not explain to the merchant, so they could only return the merchant's betrothal gift unwillingly.
They complained that Miss Zhao was not the time to leave, which caused them to lose a lot of money.
But they didn't know that if they didn't want to "sell" Miss Zhao to the merchants, they would get more money. The Zhao family is 10% richest, and the old man Zhao prepared a lot of thank-you gifts, which is enough for the Qiu family's ten years of consumption.
Qiu Yingzhi felt lost in Miss Zhao's departure. Qiu Yingzhi was not without feelings for Miss Zhao. After all, Miss Zhao was good-looking, and it was normal for a young man to like Ai, and Qiu Yingzhi liked Miss Zhao.
But compared to her own future, Qiu Yingzhi attaches more importance to her future. So when her family wants to marry Miss Zhao out, he doesn't say anything and hides out, not wanting to face Miss Zhao's tears.
Qiu Yingzhi sighed.
Xuemei is a weak woman. She just left alone, so she was afraid she couldn't survive outside, right?
Qiu Yingzhi thought sadly that if she would never see Xuemei again in the future, she would become the white moonlight in his life.
Xuan Mo praised Old Man Zhao’s approach. He was worthy of traveling around the world. This technique is really quick.
However, Miss Zhao is not ordinary. She is not as afraid of crying like an ordinary village girl, but is very calm.
Xuan Mo asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
Miss Zhao shook her head: "It can be seen that you have no malice to me."
Xuan Mo: "Aren't you afraid that we are human traffickers?"
Ms. Zhao: "The human traffickers are not as well dressed as you, and they do not have the same demeanor as you. Should you be the young master of a wealthy family? Could it be a classmate of the third brother?"
The third brother is Qiu Yingzhi.
When Miss Zhao mentioned him, her eyes suddenly lit up: "But the third brother asked you to help me? I knew that the third brother would not bear to see me being sold by others."
Xuan Mo cruelly broke Miss Zhao's extravagant hope, let her recognize the reality and understand Qiu Yingzhi's hypocritical face: "No, I have nothing to do with Qiu Yingzhi, and he didn't ask me to save you. He wished you could marry a businessman quickly, so that the Qiu family could get a lot of money to buy a house in the capital. Don't expect anything from him. He refused the proposal of the county master's wife, not because he had you in his heart, but because he felt that the county master's position was too low. He wanted to pass the Jinshi exam and marry a noble daughter in the capital."
Miss Zhao's face was pale and her body was shaking.
It’s not that she doesn’t understand these things, but she just doesn’t want to think deeply about them.
Qiu Yingzhi is a man she likes for many years and is the husband she recognizes. She doesn't want to think of people so badly.
But the man in front of her tear apart the appearance, forcing her to face the cruel truth, and she couldn't help but hate the man in front of her.
Xuan Mo raised his eyebrows and received Miss Zhao's hatred, but he didn't care.
Anyway, he was just bored, pretending to be the son of the Zhao family and being the backer of the Zhao family.
If Miss Zhao is a ungrateful wolf, he doesn't mind letting the ungrateful wolf disappear.
It doesn’t matter to his business if Old Man Zhao’s behaviors later. It’s his luck to save Old Man Zhao’s life at will. It’s better not to ask too much.
Miss Zhao's hatred disappeared shortly afterwards, she sighed and said softly: "I'm sorry."
Xuan Mo raised his eyebrows again: "Have you figured it out?"
It seems that this lady is a reasonable person.
Miss Zhao nodded embarrassedly: "The Qiu family is all the same in nature. Qiu Yingzhi will not be different from other Qiu family just because he has read it."
Xuan Mo: "You really understand."
Miss Zhao smiled self-deprecatingly: "After all, I have lived together for more than ten years. Since the young master and Qiu Yingzhi don't know each other, why did they plunder the little girl?"
Xuan Mo thought Miss Zhao was very smart, so he asked on the school entrance exam: "What do you think is the reason?"
Miss Zhao stared at Xuan Mo's face, which made her feel a little familiar. She touched her cheek, and her face seemed to be three-point similar to this person's face.
Miss Zhao's eyes suddenly opened wide: "You, you, me, I..."
She was so excited that she couldn't speak well for a moment.
Xuan Mo smiled, this girl is indeed smart.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted open at this time, and Old Man Zhao came in. Seeing Miss Zhao's expression, he hurriedly said, "Have you told the lady?"
Xuan Mo shook his head: "She guessed it herself, let's tell her the specific one."
Old Man Zhao was excited and happy when he heard this: "It is worthy of being the master and his wife's biological flesh and blood, as smart as them."
Miss Zhao let out a long breath and finally could say something smoothly: "Are you my relatives? Are you my brother?"
"No, the young master is the young lady's younger brother, he was born two months later than you." Old man Zhao said, "Miss, I'm late, I've been making you suffer."
He even cried as he said that.
Miss Zhao rushed to comfort Old Man Zhao, and finally made Old Man Zhao stop crying.
Old man Zhao began to talk about the Zhao family to Miss Zhao.
When Ms. Zhao heard that her parents were looking for her, she was very moved. When she heard that her parents were killed, Ms. Zhao cried so hard that she was heartbroken.
When she was a child, she fantasized about how much she would love her if she had parents. Now she knew who her parents were, but she was separated from them forever. Miss Zhao was regretful and sad.
Xuan Mo waited for Miss Zhao to cry enough and asked her: "Have you read?"
Listening to his words, he doesn't look like a village girl who doesn't know the ignorant words.
Miss Zhao nodded: "When I was a child, Qiu Yingzhi taught me to recognize words. When he was studying, I often listened and learned some. He took the books home and I also read them, and later helped him copy books and make money."
"Then I think you're good at writing." Xuan Mo said to Old Man Zhao, "The Zhao family is very lucky. With such a smart lady, she can also take advantage of her tribe members and people outside."
