Yun Zheng, from an angle unseen by others, curled her lips into a wicked smile.
She had long disliked Qin Shuanglu and knew that Qin Shuanglu’s feelings for the Qin family were lukewarm; otherwise, she wouldn’t have abandoned the Qin family and remarried in her past life.
This kind of woman was a cancer. Although she was only doing petty theft now, Yun Zheng was certain that she would lead the Qin family to wealth in the future, and Qin Shuanglu might become increasingly outrageous. Yun Zheng didn’t want Qin Shuanglu to gain any advantage.
However, Yun Zheng was still a junior, and it was often inappropriate to confront her directly.
Yun Zheng knew Qin Shuanglu’s greedy and gluttonous nature very well, which was why she deliberately placed the ginseng in the vegetable garden in the backyard. After selling it, she would then propose doing business, thus thoroughly provoking Qin Shuanglu’s resentment and unwillingness to accept defeat.
This finally forced Qin Shuanglu to say those words.
Qin Baishi was stunned for a moment, then gave a sarcastic laugh.
“If you want to separate the family, then separate! Do you think I want to raise a lazy bum like you? Move out right now!”
“Mom, calm down.” Although Qin Gang didn’t particularly like his third sister, they were still family, so he stepped in to mediate. He glared at Qin Shuanglu and said, “Third sister, don’t talk nonsense. Where can a woman like you live after separating from the family? Are you planning to take Lang Ge’er to beg on the streets?”
The others also joined in, trying to persuade her.
“Stop talking, all of you! I’m perfectly clear-headed; you’re the ones who’re confused!” Qin Shuanglu was determined. “I’ve long been fed up with Mom’s favoritism towards Qin Yunzheng. Anyway, if I stay, this family will be ruined by that jinx, Qin Yunzheng. I might as well cut my losses and leave now!”
“Shut up, all of you! If she wants to leave, let her leave!” Qin Baishi shouted, enraged by Qin Shuanglu’s comment that Yun Zheng was a jinx. She then said coldly, “Anyway, our Qin family can’t tolerate this kind of troublemaker!”
Qin Shuanglu was defying her mother for the first time and felt extremely satisfied, becoming even more aggressive.
“Mom, since we’re dividing the family property, what belongs to me should definitely be mine. I’m your daughter too; you can’t leave me without a penny.”
“After all this talk, you just want me to give you a share of the money?” Qin Baishi sneered.
Qin Shuanglu said, “I’m just making a reasonable request. You need to prepare a dowry for Qin Yunzheng. I’m your daughter, and I’m getting married soon; you should prepare one for me too.”
“Third sister, you’re getting married? Who’s your fiancé?” Qin Zhihua, who was usually quiet, was the first to be surprised.
Qin Shuanglu hesitated for a moment, a blush creeping onto her face.
“It’s Dong Qiang.”
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this name. Even Yun Zheng hadn’t expected that Qin Shuanglu would get involved with that old bachelor.
It seemed that everyone’s life had changed because of her arrival.
“What did you say? You want to marry Dong Qiang?”
Qin Baishi instantly exploded, her old face trembling with anger. “You heartless wretch! Have you forgotten that Dong Qiang just stole your nephew’s wife? He’s no good! Do you want to make our Qin family the laughingstock of the whole village by marrying him? I won’t agree!”
“Mom, Dong Qiang’s marriage was just a normal arrangement. In the end, it was practically Shen Ge’er who stole his wife from him. He didn’t even mind accepting a widow like me who lost her husband. Please don’t be so petty,” Qin Shuanglu said, then added shyly, “Besides, we’ve already secretly pledged our lives to each other and had physical intimacy. I can’t refuse to marry him!”
Qin Baishi was furious at her lack of self-respect and slapped Qin Shuanglu across the face.
“Have you no shame? You’re already having an affair with a wild man before you’re even married! How did I give birth to such a slut like you?!”
