Lin Qiuyue's tear-filled eyes flashed with hope: "Mother."
"Don't worry, my dear, my mother will never let you be wronged."
While Mrs. Lin tried her best to comfort Lin Qiuyue, she weaved a huge conspiracy in her heart.
No matter how much the Lin family tried to hide the matter, rumors spread throughout the capital.
"Have you heard? The second girl of the Lin family was caught having an affair with a servant in the summer garden!"
"How is that possible? How can anyone have an affair and go to someone else's place? I'm afraid they've been framed, right?"
"She went to change clothes with her sister who was married to the general's mansion. It turned out that her sister was fine. She..."
"Oh, I heard that Miss Lin accidentally spilled tea on Mrs. Chu. Mrs. Chu threw the paint directly on Miss Lin, and then went to change clothes. It felt like Mrs. Chu You are deliberately looking for trouble to set up Miss Lin Er."
"Oh my God, why are you so evil-minded? I married into a higher position, and now I want to harm my sisters again. It's terrible!"
"..."
Lin Qingge listened to a group of women talking nonsense at the entrance of the Xiaotang through the door. Just when she wanted to hear what other opinions the melon-eating crowd had, the sound of scolding rang out.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, I will pull out your tongues!"
As Shiqi's voice sounded, everyone outside dispersed.
She weighed the uneaten melon seeds in her hand and said with regret, "Why are you so anxious? If they just say a few more words, I'll finish the melon seeds."
"Young Madam!" Shi Qi looked at her in surprise, "It was obviously Lin Qiuyue who wanted to set you up, but everyone said she was set up. Don't you feel aggrieved?"
"What's the grievance? I didn't lose anything during my trip to Xia Yuan, and I got back the money that the Lin family had owed me for so many years. On the other hand, the Lin family was disgraced, and Lin Qiuyue became a topic of conversation after dinner. I'm afraid the whole family became a hot pot. Are there ants on the bed?"
What happened yesterday, any woman who has a little bit of experience in being a housewife, will know that there is something fishy in it.
But so what?
Noble ladies who are experienced in house fighting will not let such a woman who has been reduced to an after-dinner marry into their family, and which of the so-called young men and celebrities does not regard their reputation as the most important thing.
Those rumors sounded like they were a grievance for Lin Qiuyue, but they would only completely trample her reputation under her feet.
Speaking of which, the people who went to Xia Yuan yesterday were all of high status, and they would not talk nonsense when they were next to Zhou Chengzhang and Lin Shuquan.
Apparently, the owner of Xia Garden, Mr. Jiu, deliberately let the matter slip.
Seventeen looked at Lin Qingge's contented look and added something to her happiness: "Young Madam, I heard that Mr. Lin was impeached in court today."
"Impeach?"
"Yes, he was impeached for seizing the dowry of his concubine and was fined one year's salary."
He was beaming as he spoke, but Lin Qingge's brows furrowed slightly.
For Lin Shuquan to be able to achieve the position of Prime Minister, the first person in the civil service, he is not just a fool. There must be many of his followers in the court.
In the end, she was impeached by the government for such a trivial matter. If there was no one behind it, she really didn't believe it.
But who would do such a thing?
She raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brow, and went through all the big guys she had come into contact with during this period in her mind. Each one was similar, but each one was different.
"Young Madam, Master Jiu would like to make an appointment with you."
Shiqi's voice interrupted Lin Qingge's thoughts. She raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling very confused.
How could someone like Su Yunting, who was incredibly wealthy in a place like the capital, look for her?
Her fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the rocking chair: "Did you say something?"
"I heard that he wants the young lady to give him a divination."
Divination is her strength, but she has not forgotten the last time she looked at Su Yunting's face and found that he was looking for his missing relatives. His attitude did not seem like he wanted to ask for divination.
No matter whether he goes or not, there is a possibility of offending this big shot.
However, she has never been a shy person. She stood up and tidied her clothes, and then she took Qi Qi out of Yixiaotang. When she looked up, she saw Su Yunting leaning in front of the window on the second floor of Wangyou Pavilion opposite.
Due to the light problem, she couldn't see his face clearly, but she was keenly aware that his eyes were always staring at her.
Full of doubts, she entered the private room belonging to Su Yunting.
"I thought the young lady didn't dare to come." Su Yunting was still sitting by the window, holding a bottle of wine in his hand.
It's just that at this time, he was not as bohemian as usual, and there was a bit of coldness in his eyes.
Lin Qingge was surprised. She didn't remember ever offending this God of Wealth.
After gathering her thoughts, she bowed to him: "I wonder why Master Jiu asked me to come here today?"
"Didn't you say you could help me find my lost relatives?"
There was no joy in his voice, but a sense of gloominess.
Especially when he stood up and walked towards her step by step, the huge sense of oppression became more obvious: "As long as you can find her, all the properties in my name, Su Yunting, can be given to you."
One hexagram makes you rich!
She felt her heart pounding in her chest.
It's not that she hasn't seen the world, but after learning about Su Yunting's net worth, she really can't pretend not to care.
There is no place in the entire Qingzhou continent that his business cannot reach!
Mr. Jiu was called his boss, but the only thing that was really lethal was a Tingxue Tower.
Is it difficult to invite a country's army to protect itself when it is richest in the world?
Lin Qingge chuckled lightly: "The conditions proposed by Master Jiu are very generous, but people pay attention to fate. If your fate with that person has been exhausted, even if you are close to each other, it will be the end of the world. Filling in all the wealth is not considered a wise decision."
Su Yunting walked to the table and sat down, with a strange smile on his unruly face: "What, are you scared?"
"I'm just discussing the matter, and I guess Master Jiu actually doesn't want me to do this." She sat opposite him and looked at him quietly.
A pair of black and white eyes seem to have the magic power to see through people's hearts.
After she felt the avoidance of the other party's eyes, she smiled even more freely, but her voice was extremely cold: "Jiu Ye can be called the richest man in the world. Whether it is skill or ability, he is definitely the best among people. Then you should know very well, like For people like you who can’t find anyone, the chances are that the person is no longer alive..."
Before she finished speaking, she could not say another word. Su Yunting suddenly reached out and clasped her neck.
The strength in his hand was not great, but it was enough to block her breathing and the veil stuck tightly to her face. There was still a smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Then go to the underworld and help me see if she is there."
