Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man
Chapter 141: Training the Slave
When Qin Ying saw the things sent by the Zhou sisters, she was silent for a moment and then refused.
Zhou Qi said, "Sister Qin, this is our token of our appreciation. You've been so kind to us these days, and although we don't say it, we understand it in our hearts."
"Compared to the help you've given us, our return is too small. If you don't even accept this, we..."
Seeing that the two sisters were about to cry, Aunt Zhao hurriedly said, "Yingzi, just accept it! We can give it back to others later."
They can't say it too bluntly, but they really deserve to repay this favor!
Qin Ying had no choice but to accept it.
Zhou Mian became lively and chatted with Qin Ying, "Sister Qin, you're right! After we went there, my eldest brother was very happy.
“We hadn’t thought of these hidden weapons, but it was my eldest brother who took the initiative to bring them up!
"He also told us a lot about his childhood, many of which I don't remember.
“To be honest, when we first got into trouble, we felt resentful towards our eldest brother.
"He has been studying literature and martial arts since he was young. If he hadn't left home so early, with his escort, we wouldn't have been in this situation..."
"Mianmian!" Zhou Qi scolded softly.
Zhou Mian sighed: "Sister, I know that those things are in the past. I am grown up now, and I naturally know that everyone has their own reasons.
"My eldest brother left home because he had no choice. The regret in his heart is greater than anyone else's, and heavier than anyone else's!
"We lost our father, didn't he? He must have been more worried than anyone else when he found out about us.
“In fact, if it weren’t for my eldest brother’s refusal to give up, we two wouldn’t be able to escape from this sea of suffering.
"If it weren't for my eldest brother insisting on taking us away from our grandfather, I'm afraid we would still be the same as before, forever timid..."
As he spoke, tears began to fall.
Zhou Qi held her sister's hand, and her eyes turned red.
Qin Ying stood up and wrung out a warm handkerchief, handing it to Zhou Mian to wipe his hands. "Let's not dwell on the unpleasantness of the past. It's enough for us to know that the future will be a good day."
"Yes, yes," Aunt Zhou also hurriedly followed suit, "Don't they say, 'After suffering comes happiness'? Good days are waiting for us in the future!"
"Yes!" Zhou Mian nodded, choking with sobs. "I know, I won't do it again! Never again! I've forgotten all those things!"
A few days later, Mr. Zhou sent someone to deliver a letter, and along with the letter came a carriage and horses.
A large group of maids, servants and guards came.
Coincidentally, all the members of the Zhao family had gone to the fields, and Zhou Yu had taken people to visit the surrounding areas, so only Zhou Qi and her sister were at home.
Leading the group was Aunt Hu, an elderly woman who served as a companion to Old Master Zhou. She wore a kind smile, but her eyes were scrutinizing the surroundings. She didn't even sit down in Zhou Qi and Zhou Mian's room. Instead, she went into the courtyard with them and explained her purpose directly: "Old Master has sent this old servant to take the two young ladies back home."
Zhou Miaonong showed some timidity. Zhou Qi held her sister's hand and realized that her hand was even colder than hers.
But at this time, her eldest brother was not there, and neither were Aunt Zhao and Sister Qin. She was the only one who could protect her sister. She pulled Zhou Mian behind her and said lightly, "Madam Hu, we don't want to go back for the time being."
Madam Hu's eyes sharpened, and she frowned unhappily and said, "Miss, this is the old man's order."
Zhou Qi said calmly, "Madam Hu, what did Grandfather say?"
Nanny Hu choked. How come these two little girls, who were originally easy to deal with, suddenly changed their personalities?
She took a deep breath and changed her tone: "Miss, Grandpa has missed me terribly after not seeing me for a few months. Besides, this place..." She looked around, her disgust obvious, "Where can anyone live?
"You two are the most precious young ladies in our Marquis' Mansion, how can you continue to suffer here?
"Let alone the old man, even His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince would be heartbroken if he knew the life these two young ladies are living here!"
Zhou Qi's expression changed slightly, but her attitude remained firm: "Madam Hu, we don't feel miserable here. On the contrary, every day here is very fulfilling.
"Grandfather misses us, and we miss him very much too. The two greeting letters every month, along with the gifts, represent our thoughts and longing.
"As for His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince, although we are cousins, there is still a distinction between monarch and subject. We dare not get close to him."
Madam Hu became a little impatient: "Miss, the old man said that the eldest son is a man and it is his duty to venture out into the world. As women, you should abide by the rules of the boudoir..."
"Madame Hu!" Zhou Qi was so angry that her body was shaking slightly, and her tone became sharp, "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!
"Are you saying that we sisters don't follow the rules? Then please explain clearly, Madam Hu, where are we breaking the rules?
"If you can explain it clearly, we will accept it. We will obey Grandfather in whatever way he wants us to punish you. If you can't explain it clearly, then it would be a crime of insubordination!"
Nanny Hu's face trembled, and she looked up and down at Zhou Qi in disbelief. How could this young lady have become such a different person?
Because her sister refused to give in, Zhou Mian mustered up her courage and asked loudly, "Can't Madam Hu tell you?"
There were hurried footsteps outside the wall. Zhou Qi looked over the wall and saw Aunt Zhao and Qin Ying rushing over with anxious looks on their faces.
Zhao Hu fell behind a few steps and drove back all the villagers who wanted to watch the fun.
Yes, Madam Hu and the others made such a big fuss, the whole Tongshu Village must be in an uproar, right?
Aunt Zhao and Qin Ying entered the yard and went straight to the Zhou sisters, asking them a few questions with concern.
Zhou Qi, who was full of vigor just now, immediately felt aggrieved when she saw them. Her eyes were a little red, but she still shook her head firmly to indicate that she was fine.
Madam Hu looked at the three Zhao family members with disdain and snorted, "Who are you? How dare such lowly people get close to my young lady? You really don't know your place!"
Zhao Hu was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Aunt Zhao.
Qin Ying turned to look at Aunt Hu, her face slightly cold: "Auntie, this is my home. You came here uninvited. Shouldn't this be considered 'trespassing'?
"Besides, we are innocent and free. We are not slaves who kowtow before their masters and bully others. Auntie, you insult us by calling us 'lowlifes'. Are you ignoring the laws of this dynasty?"
Zhao Hu just wanted to applaud, it had to be his sister!
Zhou Qi and Zhou Mian's faces turned red with excitement. They learned something!
Madam Hu was so choked up that she couldn't utter a word. Her eyes almost popped out of their sockets as she yelled at the guards, "Are you all blind and deaf? Are you just going to watch me get humiliated?"
Qin Ying chuckled, "Your status is similar to theirs, right? Even if you were entrusted by the master... right now, there are still two young masters in your mansion. Can you boss them around?"
