Once Shaoyao spread the news that Qin Min was going to have a meal with everyone, the Qin family's first and second branches became nervous. Those who had originally planned to go out on business immediately canceled their plans, afraid that they would miss the family banquet tonight.
But who knew that just as everyone sat down, Second Master Qin, who was originally not in the residence, would suddenly appear.
"Haha, I thought Big Brother had been released from prison. I didn't expect the dean's wife to come." Second Master Qin said strangely.
Although he was wary of this dean's wife, he couldn't care less when he thought of the possibility that she was back to help his younger brother fight for power.
No matter what, he didn't want to lose the position of the Qin family's head! He didn't believe that Qin Min, a married daughter, could care so much. So what if she was the dean's wife? Not to mention her, even if Gu Beiyue came personally, he could forget about meddling in the Qin family's domestic affairs.
In terms of status, Qin Min was naturally the highest among everyone present. But in terms of seniority, Second Master Qin was the highest.
The moment Second Master Qin walked in, everyone stood up to leave with him. Only Qin Min sat alone. After everyone left, Qin Min said lightly, "Second Uncle, it's inconvenient for Min 'er to move around. Sorry for the lack of manners."
Second Master Qin didn't stand on ceremony and only said three words, "It's fine."
Shaoyao stomped her feet in anger. Unfortunately, she didn't dare to be impudent in the Qin family's territory. She had grown up in the Qin family and knew the Qin family's rules. She also knew this Second Master's temper.
Qin Min only smiled and didn't say anything else.
She had dinner with everyone tonight and didn't intend to say anything. The more one spoke, the more mistakes one would make. If one didn't speak, one would be at a loss.
With her current status, if she didn't say anything during the meal, it would be enough to make everyone lose sleep for an entire night while they pondered over her thoughts.
Although she knew that Gu Beiyue had a very thorough plan to help her uncover the mole, she still wanted to take the risk. However, she still decided to take a risk and do it herself.
After all, she had been wronged for more than ten years. She had to vent this anger herself. Moreover, she … didn't want to owe him too much.
Qin Min originally thought that Second Master Qin would sit down and eat with everyone. But unexpectedly, Second Master Qin actually sighed. "Sigh … I've been busy outside these past few days. Unfortunately, I still can't bail Big Brother out. It's even hard to see him. Second Uncle is old and can't do much. I have a few things to tell you. "
"Father, did something happen?" Qin Zheng Yuan asked anxiously.
Second Master Qin didn't answer. He walked to Qin Min's side and said in a low voice, "Madam Dean, this matter is related to Big Brother's imprisonment. You should avoid suspicion."
As soon as he said this, everyone looked over. Qin Min's younger sisters and brothers-in-law did not say anything. Only her younger brother, Qin Changqing, said angrily, "Second Master, do you think my sister is an outsider?"
"Hehe, the Dean's wife is the same as the Dean. She is fair and impartial, placing righteousness before family. Changqing, don't make things difficult for your sister." Second Master Qin sneered.
"Father, it's inconvenient for Madam to move around. Why don't we go next door and talk?" Qin Zheng Yuan asked.
"Sure," Second Master Qin said politely. "Then I'll have to trouble Madam Dean to wait for a moment."
With that said, he walked to the side hall with his son. As soon as they went over, the people from the second branch immediately followed. Qin Min's three younger sisters looked at each other. They were clearly tempted, but her younger brother sat there angrily and didn't move.
Qin Min didn't say a word and scooped soup to drink.
It had to be said that this Second Uncle of hers gave her a great show of strength. His actions seemed to be embarrassing her, but in fact, he was testing her. He was also making things difficult for her and forcing her! To put it bluntly, he was sowing discord between her and her siblings.
Qin Changqing finally couldn't hold back and asked loudly, "Sister, you're just going to let them bully you?"
As soon as he said this, the three younger sisters and brothers-in-law all looked at Qin Min, waiting for her answer.
Second Uncle was already so ruthless. Wasn't Qin Min going to refute? Wasn't she going to express her stance? Didn't she come back to discuss how to save her father with everyone? Was she really going to be bullied like this by Second Uncle?
Qin Min only said two words. "Eat."
"Sister!" Qin Changqing slammed the table angrily.
Qin Min was still indifferent. The three younger sisters exchanged glances again. Finally, Second Miss Qin, Qin Jie, said, "Sister, what do you mean by not saying anything? Hmph, are you still holding a grudge against Father for not nurturing you back then? "
As soon as Second Miss Qin spoke, the other two immediately followed.
"Sister, you didn't come back to laugh at everyone, right? Alright, now that Second Uncle and his son are smug, you should be happy too! "
"Sister, I didn't expect you to be so heartless. It's fine if you don't save Father, but you won't even help your younger brother. You're too disappointing! "
…
Qin Min didn't want to save her father, and she also didn't want to help her younger brother fight for the position. This was because she knew that in the near future, the power of the family would disappear in the medical field and be replaced by true talent. Now, even if they fought until their heads bled, it would be futile.
How to restrain the Qin family and the other big families in the Qin family's camp to prevent them from obstructing Gu Beiyue's upcoming reform was Gu Beiyue's own business.
She was only here to find the murderer.
Letting her three younger sisters question her and her younger brother stare at her resentfully, Qin Min ate and drank her soup with a clear conscience.
In silence, she waited for the murderer to lose his patience.
Back then, she didn't just show her talent, but her legs were crippled by the murderer. Today, she became the wife of the dean and showed her shocking talent. Now that she returned to the Qin family, how could the murderer sit still?
Back then, the murderer had a reason to harm her. Today, he had even more reason to harm her.
The more silent she was, the more the murderer couldn't figure out the purpose of her trip. The more impatient and flustered he would be.
She locked the murderer in the second branch. In the face of Second Uncle's provocation, she had to remain calm.
After eating, Qin Min said faintly, "Enjoy your meal. I'll go back first. Since you're done eating, you can leave too. "
Everyone was so angry that they couldn't speak. When Qin Min went out, Qin Jie suddenly chased after her and questioned loudly, "Qin Min, why did you come back? Leave, the Qin family doesn't welcome you! "
Qin Min looked back. All the opportunities that should have belonged to her back then were given to this younger sister. However, this younger sister still mocked her a lot.
She didn't forget what happened back then, but after so many years, she was too lazy to bring up the old scores.
Many times, revenge didn't necessarily mean doing something to the other party or taking revenge. There was a way to take revenge called standing higher and seeing further.
When you stood high enough, where your enemy could only look up, you would win very elegantly.
Qin Min knew that she was only the wife of the dean in name and didn't really stand in such a high position. However, she didn't want to let down the height and elegance of the title "wife of the dean".
Qin Min ignored everyone and went back quietly with Shaoyao.
Second Miss was flustered and exasperated. She rushed back and said to Qin Changqing, "Eldest Sister is here to laugh at us. Chase her away! Chase her away right now! "
Qin Changqing had always been protected by his father. Now that he had fallen to this state, he was completely helpless. He only remembered the best sentence his father had told him before he was taken away. "Listen to your eldest sister and let her make all the decisions!"
Although his eldest sister didn't say anything today, he didn't dare to offend her.
"Go!"
Qin Jie tugged at Qin Changqing's clothes hard. Qin Changqing waved his hand coldly. "Eldest Sister coming back to stay for a few days has nothing to do with you."
"She's already married. Who allowed her to come back to stay?"
Only God knew how much Qin Jie disliked Qin Min. She retorted angrily.
"Then … don't you come back every day?" Qin Changqing muttered.
"You!" Qin Jie was furious. She stomped her feet and pulled her husband, saying angrily, "Yes! I still want to stay today! I'll stay as long as she stays! "
As soon as she left, although the other two sisters didn't say anything, they immediately left with her. The three sisters were clearly in cahoots.
In the huge hall, Qin Changqing was the only one left in front of a table full of fine wine and delicacies. He had no appetite and left after sitting for a while.
After they left, Qin Fengxian, Qin Zhengyuan, and the others came out one after another.
Qin Zhengyuan sneered as soon as she came out. She was about to speak when Qin Fengxian stopped her. He let the others eat and took Qin Zhengyuan out.
As soon as they left, Qin Zhengyuan said impatiently, "Father, what exactly is Qin Min selling in her gourd?"
Qin Fengxian sneered, "I'll see how long she can stay!"
"Father, there's no way she won't help Qin Changqing. What … what should we do?" Qin Zhengyuan was most worried about this matter.
Qin Fengxian said unhappily, "How many times have I told you? You can only achieve great things if you keep calm!"
As long as Qin Fengli was sent out of Medical City and truly became a medical slave, the people in the clan would immediately propose to establish another family head. Qin Changqing's medical skills were simply not qualified. He didn't believe that Qin Min could support Qin Changqing in a short period of time!
What he needed to do now was to let Qin Min deal with him directly. Over the years, he had made many achievements in medical skills. He also did his best to save people and didn't leave any evidence behind. He really wasn't afraid that Qin Min would deal with him. As for the open and covert struggles in the residence, he naturally played many tricks, but those were not enough to make him lose the position of family head.
He was very confident that he would win by "not changing" to deal with Qin Min's "not moving".
Qin Fengli used the strategy of "not changing" to deal with Qin Min's "not moving". At the same time, Qin Min also used "not moving" to wait for Qin Fengli to take the bait.
However, three days later, the situation took a big turn, which caught Qin Min somewhat off guard.
During these three days, Qin Min didn't go out of her courtyard. Qin Changqing came to find her several times every day, but she didn't say a word. Third and fourth sisters also came to find her and tried to sound her out, but she didn't say anything.
On the fourth day, Qin Changqing had just left with his two sisters when Qin Jie came to visit alone.
Unlike her usual domineering, arrogant, and haughty attitude, she said to Qin Min with a sincere face, "Sister, let's … talk about what's in our hearts! Do I still remember what you said more than ten years ago? "
Qin Min ordered Shaoyao to serve tea and asked faintly, "What did you say?"
Qin Jie smiled helplessly. "Sister, you said you wanted to marry Ji Yifeng when you grew up. Do you remember? "
