The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Chapter 470 Contradictions

Qin Huiyin sat under a tree with a zither in front of her.

After she finished playing the whole song, she looked at Puyang Qiubai with anticipation.

Puyang Qiubai faced those expectant eyes, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he nodded gently: "There is progress."

Qin Huiyin puffed out her chest, looking proud.

"Puff!" Zhuge Congfeng sneered beside him.

Qin Huiyin glared at him: "What are you laughing at?"

"Qiu has a good temper and a soft heart. I'm sorry to offend you. I'm a man of my word and never lie. As for your piano skills... they're only slightly better than the sound of a fortune-attracting call."

Qin Huiyin stood up with a clatter and glared at Zhuge Congfeng angrily: "You play well, just keep playing here, don't stop."

After saying this, he turned to Puyang Qiubai and said, "Master, this man is such a bummer. I won't play today. Master, take good care of yourself. I'll come back tomorrow."

Qin Huiyin left angrily.

Puyang Qiubai looked at Zhuge Congfeng across from him and asked, "Why are you teasing her?"

"Don't you think she's cute when she's all mad?" Zhuge Congfeng rocked back and forth in his old chair, fiddling with his long silver hair, looking down at me. "Besides, she's been so distracted today, her mind isn't on her piano playing. I'm afraid her heart has already flown somewhere else. I'm just trying to help her."

Puyang Qiubai said calmly, "Her good sister's lover was implicated by Prince Ning and is now in prison. She must be worried."

"That Ning Jun Wang should have been in jail a long time ago. How did she get involved with him?"

"Not really. The Li family was also implicated by the eldest daughter and forced to board the Ning Junwang pirate ship. But fortunately, what is being exposed now is what happened last year. If the Li family wants to get rid of it, they just need to spend money."

Qin Huiyin went out from the backyard and headed towards Song Ruize's house.

As soon as she entered the door, a huge figure rushed over.

Qin Huiyin quickly hugged it, touched its head, and said with a smile: "You didn't bark at home today, did you?"

The servant who served Zhaocai came over and said to Qin Huiyin, "Don't worry, Miss. Zhaocai is very smart. As long as you play with it every day, it won't bark. It seems that it can accurately sense your presence every time. It has been guarding here before the carriage arrived at the door."

"This shows that our Zhaocai's hearing and sense of smell are much better than other dogs."

Qin Huiyin played with Zhaocai for a while, then called the housekeeper over and asked him to replace the flowers in the yard with those that were in fashion.

"Miss, these flowers are in great shape now. They will bloom beautifully next season."

"It's not like I don't want them. My brother has several other courtyards, so I'll move these flowers there. I'll replace all the flowers here with flowers that are in full bloom this season. When my brother comes back and sees the beautiful scenery all over the courtyard, he'll definitely be very happy."

After hearing what Qin Huiyin said, the housekeeper smiled and said, "Fortunately, the young lady is not a man. If she were a man, with your smooth and coaxing personality, which girl could resist you?"

"Men also need to be coaxed." Qin Huiyin raised her palm and made a trumpet shape.

Without Song Ruize, the entire Song residence felt empty. Although he rarely came back before and just used this place as an inn, the feeling was different when he was in the capital and when he was not.

When he is in the capital, this house will carry the aura of its owner, making people feel at ease.

He was not in the capital, and this house was cold and no different from other ordinary houses.

Qin Huiyin stroked Zhaocai's fur and murmured, "Zhaocai, when will he come back? He said half a month, and only three days have passed. Time flies so slowly."

Qin Huiyin didn't stay in the Song residence for long. When she left, the housekeeper had already started transplanting the flowers.

She returned to the Tang residence and as soon as she entered the door, she saw the housekeeper coming over with a letter.

"what is this?"

"This is the wedding invitation from the Zhu family."

Qin Huiyin took it, opened it, and saw Zhu Jingxuan's signature.

"Miss Gong Si is getting married to the eldest son of the Zhu family? I remember the original wedding date wasn't this one, how come it happened so soon?"

"I don't know either."

"I'll just give it to my mother." Qin Huiyin said, taking the wedding invitation to the main courtyard.

As soon as they entered the main courtyard, they saw Tang Dafu applying a facial mask to Li Taohua. Seeing his attentiveness, he seemed to have completely mastered the skills of her beauticians.

"Uncle Tang, when I went to inspect the beauty salon yesterday, I heard the technician there say that you've been there for half a month, leaving early and returning late every day, and performing skin care projects on many people. So you've been stealing their skills."

"Your mother is so busy every day, how can she have time to go out every day? Once I learn it, I can do the project for your mother alone." Tang Dafu said, patting his cheek. "Look at my face, don't you think it's getting younger and younger?"

Qin Huiyin smiled and said, "Indeed, I'm almost catching up with Big Brother. You and Big Brother must not go out together, or they might mistake you for brothers."

Tang Dafu was quite proud to hear this. His son was a famously handsome man in the capital, so as a father, he couldn't be much worse. Besides, his wife, his daughter, his stepdaughter, and his youngest son were all beauties. Living among such beauties, if he became an old man, it would only ruin the harmony.

"Mom, this is the wedding invitation from the Zhu family. It looks like the eldest son of the Zhu family and the fourth daughter of the Gong family are getting married." Qin Huiyin placed the wedding invitation on the stone table.

Li Taohua didn't look at him, letting Tang Dafu play with her face, and said vaguely, "It's normal. I was drinking tea with Madam Chang yesterday, and she heard that the girl named Xing'er that the eldest son of the Zhu family brought back from the brothel is pregnant. The concubine is pregnant before the main wife even enters the house, which is simply a slap in the face of the Zhu family. Moreover, the eldest son of the Zhu family seems to be possessed by a demon, and is deeply in love with the brothel girl named Xing'er. The two of them live a life of love and affection in the backyard. The Zhu family is anxious to welcome the main wife home, so that the eldest son of the Zhu family can be distracted."

"So that's how it is." Qin Huiyin said, "What kind of gifts should we prepare?"

"We've already broken off relations with the Zhu family, so there's no need for those superficial things. Given your eldest brother's current position, just choose a gift that's neither too heavy nor too light, so that no one can find fault with it."

Qin Huiyin praised it.

"Is Uncle Tang going?"

Tang Dafu quickly refused: "I won't go. Those officials speak strangely, and I don't understand a word they say. Wife, I will just be your good wife and help you."

Li Taohua rolled her eyes. "With your limited potential, if you really go to that mansion where people are eaten without leaving any bones, I will have to spare some time to save you."

"Fortunately, my wife protects me." Tang Dafu said coquettishly.

Qin Huiyin shuddered, stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I won't disturb you anymore."
