Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations The old lady stood up shakily. Qin Sheng quickly held her and walked into the main hall of the Qin Family. Chang Baji had asked all the people of the Qin Family to leave to make space for Qin Sheng and the old lady in case they were disturbed by outsiders. Zhu Qingwen and Qin Ran watched the old lady and Qin Sheng walk into the main hall.
The old lady did not discuss her plan with the rest of the Zhu Family. It seemed that she did not need them, but she also disrupted the rest of the Zhu Family. The Zhu Family was in a mess now. They did not know what the old lady wanted to do. They could only take one step at a time.
After the old lady and Qin Sheng walked into the main hall, only Zhu Qingwen, Qin Ran, and Zhu Qingwen were left in the yard. Zhu Qingwen felt sorry for Qin Ran. She held Qin Ran's cold hands and wiped away the tears on her face. "Your makeup is ruined. You don't look pretty anymore."
"Aunt." Qin Ran was a little embarrassed.
Zhu Qingwen sat down with Qin Ran and chatted with her. "Are you angry at me?"
Qin Ran shook her head hard. She had already thought it through. It was the Qin Family who caused trouble for the Zhu Family. How could they blame the Zhu Family? At first, she had some complaints. But the more she thought about it, the more she understood. The Zhu Family did not have to pay for the Qin Family's trouble. If it were not for her and her brother, the Zhu Family would not care about it at all. Moreover, the Zhu Family had helped them.
Moreover, the Zhu Family had taken the initiative to get involved for them. What else could she say?
"It's good that you are not angry. You have to understand Aunt and Uncle. If it were other things, we would definitely help you. But this matter has a great impact. No one knows who will be affected. So we have to be careful," Zhu Qingwen explained.
Qin Ran nodded silently. "Aunt, my brother and I know."
"Grandma really cares about you." Zhu Qingwen sighed. "Do you know why we didn't tell you when grandma came back? That's because she didn't discuss it with us. We couldn't stop her from coming back. I had to come back with her. She didn't want us to tell you. So don't blame us. "
Hearing this, Qin Ran finally understood. No wonder they hadn't told them about it for so long. Qin Ran asked thoughtfully, "Grandma, did you come back this time for the sake of our family?"
Zhu Qingwen asked back, "What do you think?"
"I think so," Qin Ran said in a low voice. Otherwise, how could her grandma suddenly come back and go to the Qin Family's house? Grandma had never been here before. After her mother passed away, she didn't like her father very much.
Zhu Qingwen continued, "It should be said that Grandma came back for you, not for Dad. She is more worried about you. As for Dad's affairs, I think she will not interfere. This is also Grandma's bottom line."
Qin Ran frowned and pondered. It seemed to be true. After coming to her senses, she said, "Small Aunt, why did Grandma come to us today?"
Zhu Qingwen shook her head and smiled bitterly. "To be honest, even we don't know what Grandma is going to do, let alone what she and Qin Sheng are going to talk about. Now we can only wait for Qin Sheng to come out. Anyway, Grandma is definitely doing this for your own good."
Qin Ran was a little surprised. She didn't expect that even her aunt didn't know. She could only wait.
…
In the main hall of the Qin Family, Old Mrs. Qin was already sitting on the rosewood chair. The door of the main hall was closed and the others were far away from them, so that they could not hear them.
Qin Sheng stood next to Old Mrs. Qin anxiously, waiting for her scolding.
Old Mrs. Qin looked at the main hall casually and snorted. "Qin Changan really knows how to enjoy life. No wonder he was caught. I think he deserved it."
Old Mrs. Qin said such a sentence. Qin Sheng didn't know what to say for a while. He could only keep silent. Anyway, he knew that Old Mrs. Qin didn't like the old man.
At this time, Old Mrs. Qin looked at Qin Sheng and said, "Sheng 'er, today I don't treat you as my grandson, but as a man of the Qin Family. This is also the reason why I went to you, but I didn't care about your feelings. I will say what should be said. It's your choice. Anyway, this is the last chance given by me and the Qin Family. From now on, I won't interfere in anything of the Qin Family. If you suffer, suffer, or are bullied, don't blame me, uncle, or Small Aunt. This is your choice. You have to bear the consequences, because you are a man."
Qin Sheng had never seen his grandmother speak in such a way and attitude. Although he looked calm, his heart was already full of ups and downs. On one hand, he was sure that his grandmother came back and suddenly came to the Qin Family for the Qin Family. On the other hand, his grandmother's words were very serious, which gave Qin Sheng a lot of pressure. He didn't know what she was going to say.
In the end, Qin Sheng said slowly, "Grandma, go ahead."
Old Mrs. Qin said seriously, "I already know what happened to the Qin Family. I think you know it better than me. Dad's case involves many aspects, and it may be far more serious than you think. Although I said that I won't help you, I came back this time for you and sister. This is what I promised your mother. So as long as I help you, I will help Dad. This is the truth, whether I admit it or not." The atmosphere in the living room was very depressing. Qin Sheng felt a little breathless.
After hearing what his grandmother said, Qin Sheng replied, "Grandma, I know."
"Secondly, you have to be clear that I'm helping you, not my father. Therefore, no matter if it's me or the Zhu Family, it's impossible for the Zhu Family to go all out, because the Zhu Family can't afford the price. I can't do that either. That's the bottom line of the Zhu Family. Even if uncle and uncle also committed a crime, the Zhu Family can't do that. Therefore, I can only help you to avoid this storm. As for how much Dad can benefit from following you, it's up to God. If you still insist on Dad's matter at that time, it's your own business. It has nothing to do with me or the Zhu Family, "the old lady continued. She wanted to make all the causes and effects clear to Qin Sheng so that he could make the final choice and not resent the Zhu Family because of this.
Qin Sheng was not a three-year-old child. He had thought about many things, so he said firmly, "Grandma, even if you don't help the Qin Family, my sister and I can understand. The Zhu Family is the Qin Family, and the Qin Family is the Qin Family. I know it very well. Moreover, you are helping us now, which has put you in a difficult position. I am not that greedy."
Hearing what Qin Sheng said, the old lady felt a little sad. This was not something he should bear at his age, but he could only endure it. So the old lady changed her tone and said kindly, "Sheng 'er, I am very happy to hear that."
"Grandma, just say what you want to say. I can bear it. Moreover, as you said, the final choice is up to me," Qin Sheng replied calmly.
The old lady nodded with satisfaction. Her grandson had some backbone. The Qin Family was not the Qin Family.
If men did not have backbone, the Qin Family would not be the Qin Family. Although he did not like Qin Changan these years, Qin Changan had never asked the Zhu Family for help.
At this time, the old lady said seriously, "Sheng 'er, the storm in the Qin Family is too big. Dad is involved in too many things. You will definitely do your best for him. However, the final result may not be what you want. I don't want you to be involved in it, so I have to show my face. As long as you promise me one thing, you and your brother will definitely be safe. Dad's final result will be much better than your efforts."
"Grandma, what is it?" Qin Sheng had a bad premonition in his heart. What could change the direction of the whole thing? Or as long as he agreed? How much power did he have?
The old lady let out a long sigh of relief and said helplessly, "The Qin Family and the Song Family will unite by marriage, and you will be engaged to Ruyu."
In order not to irritate Qin Sheng too much, the old lady just said engagement instead of marriage, so that Qin Sheng would not have a big reaction.
After hearing what his grandmother said, Qin Sheng's mind instantly went blank, as if he had been struck by five thunders. He was stunned and did not say anything for a long time. He finally understood why his grandmother asked him to promise this thing.
Qin Sheng's reaction was within the old lady's expectation. If Qin Sheng agreed, it meant that he would give up Lin Su. It was not easy for him to go through thick and thin with Lin Su. Moreover, their relationship was very firm. How could he give up Lin Su like this? How could he face Lin Su? How could he feel at ease? Would he not feel guilty for the rest of his life? Moreover, he had always wanted to marry Lin Su.
However, on one side was Lin Su, and on the other side was the Qin Family. How could he choose? It was difficult to choose.
Although the old lady also liked Lin Su very much and was very satisfied with her, she had no other way. Now the best way was this. She did not need the help of the Zhu Family or the Song Family. As long as Qin Sheng agreed to the marriage, many things could be easily solved.
Therefore, the old lady could only give this difficult problem to Qin Sheng.
At this moment, Qin Sheng's brain worked very fast, and he thought about a lot of things. Was this really the only way?
After a long time, Qin Sheng finally came to his senses. During this time, the old lady did not urge him. Qin Sheng replied calmly, "Grandma, even if I agree, will the Song Family be willing? Will Grandpa Song be willing? Will Ruyu be willing? "
Qin Sheng's calmness surprised the old lady, but she did not care about it. Instead, she replied, "Maybe you don't know that I have an engagement with Ruyu. It was made by Grandpa and Grandpa Song years ago, but he did not know about it. So you don't need to worry about the Song Family. Moreover, I have talked with Grandpa Song about this matter. He has no objection. As long as Ruyu is willing, no one will stop you."
This news shocked Qin Sheng even more. He did not expect that there was an engagement between him and Song Ruyu. It seemed a bit ridiculous. No wonder Song Hesheng was so disgusted with him. It turned out that Song Hesheng had known about it. Did Song Ruyu know about it?
Qin Sheng gritted his teeth and continued to ask, "Grandma, will Ruyu be willing?"
"I don't know yet. I have to know my choice first. Otherwise, everything will be meaningless," the old lady replied.
Qin Sheng thought for a long time and did not continue to ask about the following things. Instead, he asked, "Grandma, what if I refuse?"
