Qin shivered, and her brain felt as if it was being pricked by needles.
"You are not my sister Qin Xue. My sister is dead." Qin Jin said coldly, turned and left.
Qin collapsed instantly, and leaned limply against the car as if her backbone had been taken away, unable to utter a single word.
Xia Qianqian was also stunned: Is that the end
Didn't they say that Qin looked a lot like Qin Xue? They came with a token, but Qin Jin just took a look and it was over
"Master Qin." Xia Qianqian's body reacted much faster than her brain and stopped Qin Jin. "Master Qin, did you see my sister's body with your own eyes?"
Qin Jin's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he quickly replied: "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."
"Then please return the jade pendant to us, and we'll leave now." Xia Qianqian said straightforwardly without any reluctance.
"That jade belongs to my sister." Qin Jin sneered, "I don't know where you got my sister's jade from. Now I take it back."
Xia Qianqian was so angry that she vomited blood: "Qin Ge, tell me, is this jade mine?"
"Dad, the jade is indeed theirs..." Qin Ge said in a low voice, but was glared back by Qin Jin halfway through his words.
"Master Qin, this jade belongs to my mother. Since she is not your sister, please return the jade pendant." Xia Qianqian said loudly, her small chest heaving violently. She had no confidence to provoke the prefect!
Qin Jin waved his sleeves impatiently: "I said, this jade belongs to our Qin family..."
"How do you prove it, sir?" Xia Qianqian asked immediately.
Qin Jin took out his own jade: "See? Two pieces of jade, exactly the same. I carved and polished them myself!"
"Lord Qin, this jade belongs to my family. My mother treasured it for more than ten years, and later it was sold to a landlord in town by my grandfather. I took great pains to redeem it. You can't confiscate our jade just because of your words." Xia Qianqian smiled. She had already sensed something strange in Qin Jin.
He recognized the jade but not the person. Could it be that he saw that the Qin family was in decline and was afraid that if he recognized the person, it would bring shame to his ancestors? How could this be possible!
Xia Qianqian had a smile on her face, but anger was already surging in her heart.
Qin Jin said angrily: "Where did this little girl come from? She is making trouble!"
"Sir Qin, I'm just speaking the truth. You are an official and you know more than us country folk. You should be more reasonable, right?" Xia Qianqian said.
Qin Ge was terrified watching from the side. Few people dared to challenge Daddy's authority. Was Xia Qianqian born in the year of the leopard
"If Lord Qin insists on doing this, there is nothing I can do. After all, we are too weak, and we are just poor people who came from a poor mountain village to look for our relatives. Oh, by the way, my father died a few months ago, and I don't even have a man to support me." Xia Qianqian deliberately released the information.
Sure enough, Qin Jin's expression changed slightly: "Is your father dead?"
"Yes. After my father died, the three of us were kicked out of the Xia family. Now I have to make a living by burning tiles. We were born in the lower class and are used to the lower class life. We never dared to climb up the social ladder. It's just that my mother has shown signs of recovering her memory recently, so I brought her out to look for her relatives."
"What if we can't find it?" Qin Jin asked.
"Then let's go back to Yangliu Village. When I make enough money in the future, I will take my mother to the capital for treatment. When she gets better, she will naturally know where home is."
Qin Jin had been an official for many years and knew how to judge people. How could he not hear Xia Qianqian's ridicule? He looked back at Qin in the carriage and finally said, "Then I wish you good luck."
"Thank you, Master Qin." Xia Qianqian smiled and stretched out her white little hand, "Jade."
