On this side, Qiu Hongyan carefully placed the contract, which had just dried in ink, on the table.
She lowered her head, afraid that Shi Anxia would see her crying so helplessly.
Shi Anxia closed the account book and said with a smile, "What's wrong? The poor little kid who was thrown away by his father is crying?"
"Sister Xia'er!" Qiu Hongyan grumbled a few times in embarrassment, "You are making fun of me."
As she spoke, she squatted down at Shi Anxia's feet and curled up like a kitten.
Shi Anxia touched Qiu Hongyan's little face lovingly, "Just wait and see, your father will not abandon you, he will come to you soon to deepen the father-daughter relationship."
Qiu Hongyan was stunned for a moment, "But he clearly signed the contract and threw me away for three thousand taels of silver."
That's right, she is not worth three thousand taels, three hundred taels would be too much. Alas...
Shi Anxia said, "Your father is a shrewd man. He is counting on me to arrange a high-class marriage for you so that he can control you and your husband in the future. Do you understand?"
She deliberately used three thousand taels to trap Qiu Hongyuan, and said that it was her beloved who broke the vase.
As a beauty, a concubine's daughter brought to the marquis's mansion by a married woman, why would she have the opportunity to come into contact with a vase worth three thousand taels?
Obviously, such an expensive vase cannot be placed on the shelf and broken casually. Besides, Hongyan is a person who is always trembling with fear and caution, and will avoid good things when seeing them.
These words are clearly full of loopholes.
Qiu Hongyuan signed the contract in a hurry. There are only two possibilities.
First, he was really stupid, and didn't use his brain at all, thinking that he had broken a vase worth three thousand taels. In order not to pay the three thousand taels, he completely abandoned his daughter and didn't care about anything.
The second is a temporary solution, to place his daughter in the Marquis's mansion. If there are benefits in the future, he will take advantage of it; if there are no benefits, he will have no daughter.
Shi Anxia believes that the second possibility is more likely.
After all, they all grew up in big houses, so they can't be too cunning.
Shi Anxia asked, "Suppose you become the mistress of someone's house in the future, and your father comes to you and asks you to give him money or do something for him, what will you do?"
I know the answer to this question! Qiu Hongyan answered without hesitation, "It's impossible. I'm a bastard daughter. I can't be the mistress of anyone's family!"
Shi Anxia: “…” This little coward!
She pinched Qiu Hongyan's face and smiled, "I'm talking about if."
Qiu Hongyan leaned against Shi Anxia's legs, completely forgetting the pain she felt just now. "If so, then I won't give it to him. He doesn't even treat me as his daughter, why should I give him money? Besides, I don't have any money."
Shi Anxia naturally knew that some ways of dealing with things could not be achieved overnight, but she still couldn't help but say a few more words, "The word filial piety is pressing down on you. He is your father. He can treat you badly, but if you ignore him, he will spit on you. At this time, what should you do?"
Qiu Hongyan opened her eyes blankly, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
"Also, if he forces you to ask your husband to help him do this and that, and your husband gets angry with you, and your father scolds you for being unfilial, how will you deal with it? Furthermore, if your father threatens you with your biological mother's life, will you compromise? To what extent will you compromise?"
Qiu Hongyan: “…”
Is life really so complicated?
It seems that life is really complicated. We all went to Beijing together, but within a few months, my brother disappeared, and my stepmother and step-sister died.
She was the only one who still lived in the mansion. She had no kinship with anyone in the mansion.
Qiu Hongyan raised her eyes to look at Shi Anxia gratefully, and then went off topic with infinite admiration, "Sister Xiaer, you are so kind."
Shi Anxia: "......"
Do you understand what I am saying?
