After hearing Yan Qi's words, the eldest lady frowned, winked at him, and kept shaking her head.
If this kind of jewelry were collected, what would the other heads of the Lin family think?
Lin Yihong stood up to plead guilty and sincerely surrendered. What would the other clan leaders think if they wanted his jewelry? They will definitely think that I ignore the overall situation and take the opportunity to blackmail Brother Lin Yihong.
This is particularly detrimental to the great unity of the Lin family.
Yan Qi acted as if he hadn't seen it, and said as if no one else was watching: "Fourth uncle, you really have your heart. These jewels are enough to prove your sincerity towards the eldest lady. Although the eldest lady deserves it, she refuses to be disrespectful. So, the lady accepted these jewels.”
When Lin Yihong heard this, he was excited and worried, and said quickly: "Yan Qi is right, I have brought all the jewelry, and I want the eldest lady to accept it. Only in this way can I feel at ease, but..."
He changed the subject and was about to continue talking, but Yan Qi interrupted Lin Yihong and said forcefully: "Okay, in order to make you feel at ease, the eldest lady will definitely accept this jewelry."
"Hey, this..."
Lin Yihong's words were interrupted, and he didn't say the "but" that followed. He opened and closed his mouth, feeling anxious.
"Yan Qi!"
The eldest lady glanced at Yan Qi, shook her head, and said to Lin Yihong: "Fourth uncle, it's rare that you have a sincere heart. I can't accept these jewels. I accept your heart."
Lin Yihong breathed a sigh of relief and gave a thumbs up to the eldest lady: "Hey, I can't believe that the eldest lady is not even willing to accept this jewelry. How should I place my sincere heart? You said, I will bring all the jewelry. But the eldest lady won’t accept it. How embarrassing would it be for me to carry it back like this? Hey, I’m in a dilemma. It’s really a dilemma. Whatever, I’ll let my servants carry it back..."
"Wait!"
Yan Qi stepped forward and looked at Lin Yihong with a smile: "Can you tell that the fourth uncle really wants to give the jewelry to the eldest lady?"
Lin Yihong puffed up his chest: "Of course, the jewelry represents my sincerity and must be given to the eldest lady. It's a pity that the eldest lady didn't accept it. I had no choice but to take it back."
"Hey, how tiring it is to carry it back." Yan Qi said with a smirk on his face.
Lin Yihong was shocked: "Yan Qi, what do you mean?"
Yan Qidao: "Fourth Uncle, I understand your painstaking efforts, I can see your sincerity, and I also understand that the eldest lady does not accept the jewelry, which makes you feel particularly uncomfortable. Seeing you feel uncomfortable makes me feel very sad. So, I decided to help you."
"In my opinion, these jewels should be placed here. I will do everything possible to convince the eldest lady to accept these jewels. Haha, don't worry, I will do the work." "What? This..."
Lin Yihong was stunned for a moment.
How could Yan Qi be so shameless? Do you sincerely want to confiscate my jewelry?
Lin Yihong was worried and shook his head hastily: "The eldest lady is so determined and refuses to accept it. Yan Qi, I'm afraid you can't do anything. Anyway, in order not to embarrass the eldest lady, I'd better take the jewelry back."
Yan Qi puffed out her chest and promised: "It doesn't matter, Fourth Uncle, it really doesn't matter. You have to believe me. I will definitely let the eldest lady accept the jewelry. Why don't you believe me yet?"
While he was talking, he winked at Qu Feng next to him.
As a housekeeper, Qu Feng is an all-rounder.
When you see money, you are not willing to spit it out.
This is when the Lin family is short of money.
Qu Feng understood what Yan Qi meant, summoned a group of servants, rushed forward, and took away several boxes of jewelry as if they were robbing them.
"This...what can we do!"
Lin Yihong was dumbfounded.
Lin Yitu took his servants to chase him.
However, Yan Qi led a group of servants to block Lin Yitu and said with a smile: "Uncle Six, don't worry, don't worry, I will definitely convince the eldest lady to accept these jewels. Here, I make a promise to you. Once the jewelry enters the Lin Mansion, you will never let it go, so you can rest assured."
"ah?"
Lin Yitu was heartbroken after hearing Yan Qi's words.
How can he be relieved? He has clearly given up.
Lin Yihong gave Yan Qi a sinister look, feeling very aggrieved.
Originally, the jewelry was just a gimmick, and it was expected that the eldest lady would not accept it.
However, this Yan Qi is really nothing.
Jewelry worth one hundred thousand taels was confiscated by Yan Qi.
At this point, it is no longer time to worry about jewelry.
Yan Qi looked at Lin Yihong's old face: "Hey, fourth uncle, you don't seem very happy? Tell me what happened."
Lin Yihong was in trouble and couldn't say anything: "I'm not unhappy."
Yan Qi asked: "Then why are you looking at me with such a bitter face? Do I owe you money?"
certainly!
You owe me one hundred thousand taels of jewelry!
Lin Yihong could only force a smile: "You are joking, I was moved by you, Yan Qi, thank you for helping me."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "You're welcome, that's right. Helping others is my motto."
Lin Yihong hated Yan Qi to death.
That was one hundred thousand taels of jewels, and in the blink of an eye, it was confiscated by Yan Qi. The eldest lady was also surprised.
Unexpectedly, Yan Qi and Qu Feng actually snatched away the jewelry.
The eldest lady said to Lin Yihong: "Fourth uncle, don't worry, I will deliver the jewelry to my house someday. If you can understand me and support me, I will be very happy. How can I accept your jewelry?"
"The eldest lady is considerate and worthy of being the head of the Lin family."
Lin Yihong chatted with the eldest lady for a long time. He looked very well-behaved, loyal and supportive of the eldest lady. After lunch, he reluctantly left the Lin Mansion.
Yan Qi sent Lin Yihong out of the gate and said another heartbreaking words: "Don't worry, I will do my best to make the eldest lady accept those jewels."
Lin Yihong staggered and almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
The two of them walked out of Erlidi in a sedan chair.
Lin Yihong gritted his teeth with hatred: "This Yan Qi has tricked me again, you deserve to die!"
Lin Yitu rubbed his palms anxiously: "We calculated that the eldest lady would not take it, but we didn't expect that Yan Qi took the jewelry. The jewelry went into Yan Qi's pocket. It's difficult to spit it out."
Lin Yihong slapped his thigh: "How can it be vomited out? Yan Qi is a Pixiu and can only eat without vomiting."
Lin Yitu was very distressed: "What should we do?"
Lin Yihong's face was full of sinisterness: "How can you make big money if you don't want to give up a small amount of money? Just keep Lin Ruoxian steady. Humph, women are really short-sighted."
Lin Yitu asked: "Fourth brother, what should we do next?"
Lin Yihong nodded slowly: "Act as planned."
Lin Yitu opened the curtain first and said a few words to the bearer.
The bearer drove into a pavilion in a park in the western suburbs.
At the door of the pavilion, there were several beggars begging.
Several beggars glanced at the carriage and looked at each other.
Among them, some beggars put on brand new clothes and entered the park.
***
Lin Mansion Hall.
The eldest lady is 'educating' Yan Qi: "How could you make your own decision and keep Lin Yihong's jewelry? It's a good thing for people to surrender. If we accept the jewelry, isn't it like giving someone a handle? In the future, the patriarch of the branch of the Lin family will be If you know, what will you think? Yan Qi, please return the jewelry to me quickly."
Yan Qixiao looked at the eldest lady, motionless.
The eldest lady was angry: "Why don't you go quickly? How dare you not listen to what I say? You greedy guy."
Yan Qi shook her head: "Others laugh at me for being greedy for money, but I laugh at others because they can't see through it."
The eldest lady was startled: "Yan Qi, what do you mean?"
