When walking towards Chen Mo, Qin Xiangqiao looked very reserved.
There was fear and confusion hidden in the eyes that glanced quietly.
The reason for being timid was because of the slap Chen Mo had just given to Qin Sandao.
Inexplicably, Qin Xiangqiao felt that this brother-in-law was a little more strange.
In her impression, Chen Mo was a nerd and very timid. He had to rely on Qin Xianglian to take care of everything, and he didn't look like the head of the family at all.
What just happened greatly overturned her previous understanding.
Is this still the same Chen Shimei who was bullied by others?
He is simply the living king of hell!
"Why, are you afraid of me?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.
"A little bit." Qin Xiangqiao nodded, "Brother-in-law seems to be a different person when he comes this time."
"Then do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?" Chen Mo didn't expect that the little girl's feeling was quite accurate.
"It's a good thing." Qin Xiangqiao responded seriously, "If it were my former brother-in-law, I would definitely not be able to protect my sister and me today."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What are you going to do in the future?" Chen Mo got down to business.
"I have no idea."
Children of poor people have long been in charge. Qin Xiangqiao knew that what Chen Mo was talking about was not life, but a future.
"Have you ever thought about studying?" Chen Mo continued to ask.
"No, I don't dare to think about it." Qin Xiangqiao shook her head, "The family is very poor and she is a daughter. How can Qiaoer dare to have the extravagant hope of studying?"
"Then if there is a chance, would you like it?" Chen Mo asked.
"think."
This time, Qin Xiangqiao nodded without hesitation.
"Besides studying, what else are you interested in, such as doing business?"
Chen Mo was by no means aimless, but had thought carefully. Qin Xiangqiao was able to support a family at such a young age, which was definitely something special.
If you have such a talent, if you read more books and receive professional training and guidance, you will definitely be able to stand on your own in the future.
"What on earth did brother-in-law want to say?" Qin Xiangqiao heard the underlying message clearly.
"I want to say that your sister is set in stone for the rest of her life and can only endure hardships and hardships with me. But you are different. You should do things that you never dared to think about before."
"Brother-in-law, can you give me an example?" Qin Xiangqiao was tempted.
"To put it simply, she is to be a beautiful and beautiful woman." At this point, Chen Mo became serious, "In other words, to live for yourself."
"To live for yourself?"
A look of surprise flashed across Qin Xiangqiao's eyes, and she quickly calmed down.
"I don't know what to do. I'll ask my brother-in-law to teach me in the future."
"As long as you are willing to learn, I will teach you everything I know." Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction, "Now I will teach you the first thing, be cruel."
"Brother-in-law, you are telling me not to have any contact with Qin Sandao in the future?" Qin Xiangqiao pointed out the key point directly.
"Being cruel doesn't mean that you don't interact with each other, but you have to maintain a certain degree of control." Chen Mo said appreciatively, "It's OK to be filial, but you can't be filial. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Qin Xiangqiao nodded, "I hid the land deed at home. My father beat me many times and never acknowledged it. After a while, I pawned it."
Forehead……
Chen Mo was startled when he heard this, why was it suddenly related to the land deed?
But I have to say that Qin Xiangqiao's mind works really fast.
Hiding the land deed is not a solution. Even if Qin Sandao can't find it, Gambling will make other crooked ideas if he is anxious. It is better to eliminate the hidden danger as soon as possible.
Even if you buy a coffin with the money you get, it's better than buying a cheap casino.
"No, I'm going now." Qin Xiangqiao said and was about to go into the house to get the land deed.
"There's no need to be so anxious, right?" Chen Mo was speechless.
"If you think of it, you have to do it, so as not to have long nights and dreams." Qin Xiangqiao retorted.
"Then don't go to the pawn shop and give it to Butcher Zhang directly later." Chen Mo suggested, "Firstly, Qin Sandao is afraid of him. Secondly, you just collected five taels of silver from him, so you can't take the money in vain.
This is the second point I want to teach you. A gentleman should acquire money in a wise way, otherwise he will definitely get into trouble."
"Brother-in-law, Qiao'er understands that we owe a lot of favors, but it's hard to repay them." Qin Xiangqiao blinked her big eyes quickly, "Don't leave any excuses to others at any time."
"You are simply a genius." Chen Mo pretended to be speechless and shook his head, "I'm already starting to worry about whether you will sell me in the future."
"Even if I sell myself, I will not sell my brother-in-law." Qin Xiangqiao suddenly became serious.
The slightly childish voice was full of determination.
That malnourished face was also solemn.
"..."
Chen Mo felt something was wrong, so he didn't answer. He avoided Qin Xiangqiao's gaze and said a thoughtful word.
"From now on, don't call me Xiangqiao, call me Qing'er. This family is not worthy of you. Qin Sandao, that gambler, is not worthy of such a good daughter like you."
Qing'er?
Qin Xiangqiao murmured, and gradually a happy look crept onto her brows.
"This is a good name." Qin Xianglian walked out of the room, "Qing, it is a noble title. It not only symbolizes my sister's bright future, but also represents new life."
"Sister, why don't you change your name too?" Qin Qing'er stepped forward and took Qin Xianglian's arm, "Can we say goodbye to the past together?"
"You can, but I can't." Qin Xianglian shook her head.
"Why?"
"Because, my sister's past... included him."
Qin Xianglian whispered and quietly pointed at Chen Mo.
Qin Qing'er didn't respond, but took a deep look at Chen Mo.
An hour later, Zhang Chao and Shen Tao came back, each carrying a basket full of food and wine.
Although it is far less sumptuous than the dinner last night, it is still rare in this remote village.
"Chen Jiaoyu, please give more guidance to students in the future."
An hour was enough for Shen Tao to tell Chen Mo's various deeds, and after learning about it, Zhang Chao only had admiration and look up to this young teacher.
"I still say the same thing, as long as you know everything about your studies, tell me everything." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he looked out the door, "Counting the time, Fourth Uncle Zhang should be back by now, right?"
"Back, back."
At this moment, Butcher Zhang's voice came from outside the door, and it sounded somewhat wrong.
"Two soldiers, please come inside."
Soldier?
When Chen Mo heard this, he stood up and saw two people in military uniforms.
Butcher Zhang followed behind, with a miserable look on his face.
"Dad, what's going on?" Zhang Chao took the lead to greet him.
"It's a shame." Butcher Zhang looked at Chen Mo and said, "The cattle were sold to the garrison, and there was suspicion of fraud. The cattle dealer bribed a scum in the army, passed off the goods as inferior, and was punished by military law. And there was something involved in this.
When we arrived at Qin Sandao, the two military masters came to the door."
"That one named Qin Sandao, hand him over." Bing Wei Jia patted the scabbard and said.
"Master Bing, I already explained on the way that Qin Sandao ran away, and this matter really has nothing to do with us." Butcher Zhang regretted going to find the cow.
"Whether it matters or not, it doesn't matter what you say." Bingwei Yi said fiercely, "If you can't hand over Qin Sandao, you will all have to live with it."
"Is this unreasonable?" Chen Mo asked.
"My life is almost no longer safe, so why the hell are you talking about it? Are you going to hand it over or not?"
