Heartstrings Resonance: The Beloved Princess of the Female Power

"Yes... yes..." Looking at Qin Donglai who stopped and looked at him, he lowered his head and stammered, not daring to say anything: "Yes... it was the old lady's cry."

Qin Donglai frowned and asked the servant, "Didn't you see or hear anything else?"

Seeing the servant's constipated look, Qin Donglai slapped him in anger and said, "Hurry up and tell me!"

"I just heard the old master say... said... said that the master should divorce the old lady." The servant lowered his head as he looked at Qin Donglai whose face was getting darker.

Qin Donglai continued walking without saying anything, as if he was thinking about something. The servant did not dare to speak and followed him quickly. After turning around and around, he arrived at Qin Fusheng's yard. He saw four or five servants looking at the door, whispering to each other.

What are you all doing here? Qin Donglai asked angrily.

Several people turned around quickly and saw that it was Qin Donglai. They shouted in unison: "Young Master."

One of the older maids said, "Master, we came here only after hearing the noise."

"Oh? What sound did you hear?" Qin Donglai looked puzzled.

The servants looked at each other, not knowing whether they should say it or not.

Looking at the old woman just now, "Tell me, what did you hear?"

"It was the old lady's cry. I only heard a sound 'Ah' and nothing else." The old woman said with some guilt, wondering if she would be punished for hearing the old lady's inappropriate behavior in the old master's courtyard.

Qin Donglai looked at the others and asked, "What about you?"

One of them replied, "Me too, I'm weeding over there," pointing to a place.

The others echoed this, saying that they only heard an "Ah," and that was it.

"Okay. Let's all go back to work. This matter...?" Qin Donglai looked at the few people.

Several people understood his expression and said, "I didn't hear any sound."

"What was that sound just now?" Qin Donglai asked deliberately.

The old woman just now stood up and said, "It was me. I fell while fetching water. They came over because they heard my voice."

He turned around and looked at the servant from before. The servant immediately understood and said, "The same is true for me."

"Okay, let's go to Butler Qin to collect our reward." He said as he walked into the yard.

"Thank you for the reward, young master." Several people left one after another.

Qin Fusheng had been carried into the house. Looking at the maids and servants waiting at the door, including Wang Shi and Xiao Wang Shi, he said to Chunhong, Liu Shi's head maid, "Go find Qin the steward and ask him to bring some help."

"Yes," Chunhong responded and left.

Qin Donglai entered the main room and sighed helplessly at the somewhat guilty Wang and Xiao Wang. He looked at the angry Liu and asked, "How's Grandfather?" Not seeing Master Qin, he asked, "Didn't you go and ask Father?"

"Doctor Chen is giving acupuncture inside with his medicine boy, and Robert is watching. Father went to invite him, but he hasn't come yet." Liu said with some concern, and glanced at Wang's aunt and nephew.

Wang pulled Qin Dong and said, "Dongla, you can't let your father divorce me. I'm already old, and I can't be divorced and sent back to my parents' home."

Qin Donglai said nothing. He broke free from Wang's hand and walked into the inner room. Seeing Doctor Chen who was just finishing the needle, and Qin Fusheng who had fallen asleep, he asked softly, "Doctor Chen, how is my grandfather?"

Doctor Chen put away the needles, stood up, and said to Qin Dong, "Let's talk outside." They went outside. "Old Master Qin's health wasn't good to begin with. I told him to rest and stay calm after the acupuncture yesterday. Why did he get so angry today? I'm glad I came today. Otherwise..." Everyone understood the unspoken meaning. "Old people are most afraid of extreme mood swings. Now that he's calmed down after the acupuncture, he must not be stimulated again when he wakes up." Doctor Chen finished speaking with a sigh.

"Yes, thank you, Doctor Chen. Doctor Chen, please come and take a look at the two girls we picked up at the clinic earlier." Qin Donglai bowed.

"Okay, I'll go and take a look." Doctor Chen said tactfully. He knew that the family had something else to say. He came to the Qin residence to give acupuncture to Old Master Qin. The doorman also knew that, so he took him directly to Old Master Qin's yard. He happened to meet the eldest young lady of the Qin family. Before they could exchange pleasantries, they heard Wang screaming in the yard. They looked inside and saw Old Master Qin chasing out of the house with his crutches and beating up Wang and Little Wang, cursing, "You two dogs who are seeking repayment for a favor. Don't use the dirty tricks of your Wang family on my Qin family." Then he fell down. Fortunately, the servants who followed him supported him in time, otherwise, I dare not think that Old Master Qin would still be alive.

"Come, take Doctor Chen to Qingzhu Courtyard." Qin Donglai ordered.

A servant came in and answered "Yes" and took Doctor Chen away.

Liu was afraid that the servant would neglect people, so she called Tian Mama and instructed her, "Tian Mama, come and take a look. It's almost noon. Ask the kitchen to prepare the meal for Qingzhuyuan." Tian Mama responded and left.

Qin Donglai said to the female relatives, "Go to the side courtyard." He then instructed the person who was taking care of the old man, "Please trouble Robert to be careful." Robert replied, "Yes."

A group of people came to the side yard.

Qin Donglai looked at Wang angrily, "Mother, you are confused. How could you trouble grandfather with these matters? If anything happens to grandfather, you will be the sinner of the Qin family."

Wang Shi still insisted, "Isn't this also for the good of our family? If this succeeds, our family will be able to rise to a higher level, right? Brother Hua will also be able to soar to the sky."

Little Wang also agreed, "Yes, brother, Hua Ge'er is also your nephew. If he is well, it will be good for the Qin family. You can't just ignore him just because Hua Ge'er is not your biological son." These words made Qin Donglai and his wife very angry, and their faces turned red with anger.

Suddenly, with a loud "slap", Qin Donghai slapped Xiao Wang's face and said angrily in a suppressed voice, "Don't try to sow discord between us brothers. Believe it or not, I'll divorce you. Hua Ge'er is a man, and it's not too late for him to get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen. You don't need to arrange a marriage for him so early. Who is the Mu family? Do you think they are worthy of it?"

Master Qin was in poor health and walked slowly, while Qin Donghai had just come to make arrangements. The father and son met on the way. On the way, Qin Donghai repeated Qin Donglai's words to Master Qin and asked if Master Qin knew about this. Master Qin said he knew nothing. They had just gone to the main house in the courtyard to see that Master Qin was fine before coming over. As soon as they entered the door, they heard what his wife and his eldest brother said. Seeing that his eldest brother and his wife's faces were red with anger, they went up to him and started fighting.

Little Wang was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Qin Donghai to hit her. She shouted confidently, "What did I say wrong? Do you think your eldest brother and sister-in-law are really doing this for your own good? Humph! They are just afraid that our Hua brother will be suppressed by the official lady after marrying him."

"Pa," Xiao Wang was slapped again, "Shut up right there," Qin Donghai said angrily. Then he looked at Qin Donglai with guilt, "Brother, I never thought of it that way."

"Well, I know. Your sister-in-law and I have never wanted to suppress you." Qin Donglai said with a cold face.

"I know that all the decisions you make are for the good of this family." Brothers Qin Donghai and Qin Donglai spoke directly.

Qin Donghai turned to look at Wang, his eyes filled with disappointment. "Mother, you too, how could you do such a foolish thing? You're just trying to repay a favor."

"Isn't it right to repay the favor? We are saving their lives," Wang said nonchalantly, glancing at Mr. Qin.

Master Qin ignored her and found a place to sit down. He was a little tired after walking over. He said calmly, "Why didn't you discuss this with me? You don't want to take me seriously, right?"

"It's not done yet. I thought I'd tell you when it's done." Wang felt a little guilty.

"So you come directly to father and let him talk. Do you know that you are tarnishing the relationship between the Xiao and Qin families? You are stabbing father in the back by asking for repayment. I also know what you said. If you don't obey me, I will divorce you. Don't bring disaster to my Qin family." Master Qin said calmly. He was angry when Qin Donghai told him this before he came. He was calm now that he thought that Qin Donglai had dealt with it.

Wang opened her mouth, her lips trembling a few times, but in the end, she said nothing. Her face was full of resentment, but facing Mr. Qin's resolute attitude, she knew that Mr. Qin was serious this time. If she continued to pester him, he would really divorce her. She had planned on Mr. Qin in the first place.

Qin Donghai turned to look at Little Qin Wangshi, his eyes stern and cold. "You too, don't let me hear such words again, or don't blame me for not caring about family affection." Little Qin Wangshi was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she covered her cheeks, not daring to speak. My father-in-law's words about divorcing my aunt didn't sound like a threat at all; he really meant it. If my aunt was divorced, her life would not be easy.

At this moment, Butler Qin walked in and greeted all the masters in the room one by one.

Qin Donglai signaled with his eyes, and Butler Qin understood what he meant.

So, Steward Qin nodded and left. Then, a loud noise came from the yard.

"Why are you arresting us? We are the old lady's and the second young master's wife's people!" The maids and old women who served Wang and Little Wang shouted loudly.

"Shut their mouths!" Butler Qin gave an order, and several sturdy old women immediately stepped forward and covered the mouths of the maids and old women.

"Madam, help me!" "Madam!" The maids and old women shouted in panic, but before they could shout a few words, their mouths were tightly blocked.

Outside the main house, Wang and Little Wang were about to go out to check the situation, but were stopped by Qin Donglai.

"Mother, these servants are not serving you diligently enough. I will replace them for you." Qin Donglai's tone was calm and his eyes were firm.

Xiao Wang wanted to leave, but Qin Donghai stopped her: "They heard something they shouldn't have heard, and there's no guarantee they won't tell others about it in the future."
