Chapter 58 The Marquis of Zhong'an's Mansion Annulls the Engagement
Qin Wanying got up early, washed and dressed, knowing that her third brother was coming back today.
Qin Wanying was still looking forward to it; the mysterious third brother was finally about to appear.
As soon as the servant came in to announce her arrival, Qin Wanying went out to check.
A man stepped down from the carriage. He was tall and handsome, with an extraordinary air about him, and his eyes revealed wisdom and rationality.
Is this my third brother? He certainly has an extraordinary presence.
Qin Yonghua was taken aback. Who was speaking?
He glanced around and his gaze fell on a little girl who was looking at him with great interest.
Is that her? Could she be my little sister?
Qin Yonghua bowed to his father and mother.
Qin Yezhong had already finished the morning court session and was waiting here for his third son to return.
Qin Wanying walked to her third brother's side, bowed to him, and greeted him.
"Little sister Qin Wanying greets third brother." Qin Wanying smiled sweetly.
Is this my little sister? She's so cute. Qin Yonghua couldn't help but smile.
My younger sister is better; she's pleasing to the eye and sensible.
"Little sister, your third brother knows you're home, so he brought you a gift. Bring it up quickly!"
A servant hurried to the carriage and returned carrying a box made of golden nanmu wood in both hands.
"Open it and take a look," Qin Yonghua said.
All my family members give me gifts when they see me, waaaah, it's so nice!
Qin Yonghua was stunned for a moment. He was certain that he had heard his younger sister's inner thoughts.
He observed the expressions of those around him, and whether they were family members or servants, they all looked normal.
His family members, however, kept glancing at him.
What's going on? Can only I hear it, and no one else can?
Qin Wanying carefully opened the box, and when the box was slightly ajar, a faint white light emanated from inside.
What is that? Is it glow-in-the-dark?
Only after it was fully opened did they discover that inside was a huge luminous pearl.
The luminous pearl is about the width of a thumb, perfectly round and glossy, emitting a faint white light.
"This is a luminous pearl from the South China Sea. I went through a lot of trouble to buy it. I hope you like it, little sister."
[Besides the one my third brother gave me, there's only one other luminous pearl of this type in the palace, and another one with Xiao Dongqian. My third brother actually gave me such a precious gift!]
Qin Yonghua was taken aback again. His younger sister seemed to know quite a lot.
He doesn't know any of this. How could a young woman like me know so much?
However, he didn't ask.
"Thank you very much, Third Brother. I love your gift very much." Qin Wanying said with a smile.
Qin Yonghua smiled back as he looked at his younger sister's smiling face.
As long as my little sister is happy.
When your third brother earns more money in the future, he will buy you more gifts like these.
Everyone went inside.
Yang Xiurong pulled Qin Yonghua aside and told him about Qin Wanying's special qualities.
Qin Yonghua suddenly realized.
It turns out that it wasn't just me who could hear it; all my family members could hear it too!
Who exactly is this little sister? She's so amazing! She can even know people's past and future.
When the topic of the Marquis's family being wiped out came up, Qin Yonghua's face turned pale.
After hearing about Qin Wanyue and the others, Qin Yonghua felt a wave of fear.
He finally understood why his family had been urging him to come back.
Thankfully, I returned safely. Whatever misfortune or disaster may befall me, my little sister is here to help me escape it.
Qin Yonghua returned to the main hall, and Qin Wanying stared at him for a few seconds.
My third brother just got back today, and his fiancée's parents are coming soon.
The family members were all taken aback.
Are Yonghua's fiancée's parents coming?
Yonghua was engaged.
The betrothed family is Chen Ling Shuang, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Zhong'an, and is also a good match for the Marquis of Dingbei.
The marriage was arranged a few years ago. At that time, the Marquis of Zhong'an and the Marquis of Dingbei attended a banquet with their children, but a fire broke out that day.
Flames soared into the sky, and Chen Ling Shuang was trapped in a sea of fire.
At that time, it was Qin Yonghua who risked his life to rescue people from the sea of fire, his own clothes were even burned.
Marquis Zhong'an felt that the two children were destined for each other, so he suggested to Marquis Dingbei that they get engaged. Marquis Dingbei felt that the two families were well-matched, with one being the eldest son of a marquis's family and the other the eldest daughter of a marquis's family, which was a match made in heaven, so they signed the marriage contract.
In fact, Qin Yonghua was tall and handsome, and he never lacked female admirers.
Even the only daughter of the Duke of Wei showed great favor to Qin Yonghua.
However, because of his engagement, Qin Yonghua always kept himself pure and never had any ambiguous relationship with any woman.
Later, when he announced his departure from politics to go into business, fewer girls were interested in him.
Now, Chen Ling Shuang has grown up and is sixteen years old. She can get married this year.
Could it be that Marquis Zhong'an has come here to discuss the marriage?
In fact, Yang Xiurong had been thinking about this for a while, and the bride price had already been prepared.
However, Qin Yonghua had been busy with business and didn't have much time. He had planned to visit the Marquis of Zhong'an's residence to pay his respects after returning this time, but unexpectedly, they came to him first.
The Marquis of Zhong'an and his wife have come to annul the engagement.
When Qin Wanying uttered her thoughts, the whole family was stunned.
Marquis Zhong'an and his wife, are they annulling their engagement?
How could this be?
Why did they call off the engagement when it was already arranged? What exactly happened?
Qin Yonghua's expression was not good.
He never expected to encounter the annulment of his engagement.
I wanted to hear more clearly, but there was no response from my younger sister.
At this moment, a servant came to report that the Marquis of Zhong'an and his wife had come to visit.
The family exchanged glances, and sure enough, it was exactly as Wan Ying had said.
As expected, Marquis Zhong'an came over.
The person came in.
The younger generation all bowed to the Marquis of Zhong'an and his wife.
The Marquis of Zhong'an and his wife exchanged a few pleasantries with the Qin Yezhong couple.
Marquis Zhong'an seemed to feel that it was inappropriate to say such things in the presence of younger people, so he suggested that he speak with Qin Yezhong and his wife alone.
Qin Yezhong then told the children to leave and gave Qin Xiaoyan a wink.
Qin Xiaoyan was quick-witted and immediately understood. After stepping back, she pulled Qin Wanying behind the screen.
Here, they can hear the people inside talking, but the people inside cannot see them.
Why do this?
The couple wanted to hear Qin Wanying's true feelings so they could respond accordingly.
Not only Qin Yezhong and Yang Xiurong wanted to hear it, but Qin Xiaoyan also wanted to hear it.
Qin Yonghua was also very curious about what his younger sister might say, and he wanted to know what the people inside would say, so he ran behind the screen.
Qin Rufeng felt that this behavior was not good. After a brief internal struggle, he chose to join the group and eavesdrop together.
Marquis Zhong'an immediately got to the point.
“Brother Qin, as you know, a few years ago, your son and daughter got engaged. At that time, the children were young and didn’t understand, so it didn’t count,” said Marquis Zhongyong.
In fact, Marquis Zhong'an had wanted to annul the engagement for a long time.
Qin Yonghua wasted his rightful status as the eldest son of a marquis; instead of becoming an official, he went into business and engaged in such lowly pursuits.
I thought Qin Yonghua was a promising person, but I never expected him to be the most irresponsible!
"Brother Chen, what do you mean by this? Are you perhaps going to call off the engagement?" Qin Yezhong asked, his face displeased.
Yang Xiurong's expression was also not good.
Marquis Zhong'an glanced at Qin Yezhong, a hint of barely perceptible disdain in his eyes, which Qin Yezhong caught.
In previous years, when Qin Yezhong was still able to lead troops into battle, he was indeed very prominent.
But now, with lingering health problems, he can only stay at home. You, Qin Yezhong, are no longer the Qin Yezhong you used to be.
