Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family Chapter 396 - Giving Up

Chapter 396: Giving Up
“You’re saying that they have martial arts experts? Qi Xingfeng went there in the middle of the night? The second prince’s imperial guards happened to be patrolling and passing by? How is this possible? How is this possible?”
Qi Xinyue was so angry that she felt dizzy. She didn’t want to believe such an outcome.
Wasn’t that a family of ordinary people? How could there be a martial arts expert?
Why did Qi Xingfeng coincidentally go over? Why did the imperial guards coincidentally pass by as well?!!
She had raised assassins for so many years and lost all 40 of them, but she did not even see half of the Su family’s heads. This was simply ridiculous.
Uncle Qi knelt on the ground, his old voice trembling. “Madam, quickly think of a way. The imperial guards have captured a few alive. They don’t even have the chance to commit suicide. What should we do about this?”
Those who were captured would soon expose them. What they had done could not be hidden anymore.
He and Qi Xinyue would not be able to escape these charges.
Uncle Qi was so anxious that he knocked his head on the ground. He said with a trembling voice, “Madam, quickly think of a way. Quickly beg Master for help.”
Uncle Qi kept knocking his head on the ground and kowtowing, tears streaming down his face. He was a servant of the Qi family. If he betrayed his master, his entire family would die. His great-grandson was only three years old.
Qi Xinyue’s expression was sinister, and her body was trembling. Uncle Qi was afraid, but so was she.
Now that the truth was out, her life would come to an end.
That old thing from the Qi family was famous for doting on his daughter. After Qi Xinyu died, this love was transferred to Yan Mian. If he knew that Yan Mian’s disappearance was her doing, he would probably not be able to vent his hatred even if he killed her.
His children and grandchildren might be affected.
Qi Xinyue swallowed, and the sharpness in her body disappeared completely. She fell to the ground, as if all the strength in her body had been drained.
She muttered to herself, “How did it fail? Heaven’s will, is Heaven’s will really so biased towards her?”
Initially, she did not believe in heaven’s will. However, 40 assassins were unable to kill seven ordinary people and even caused so much trouble. This made her have no choice but to believe in heaven’s will.
“I can’t accept this. I can’t. I’ll go to his lordship. He’ll help me. He must have a way.”
Qi Xinyue roared angrily. She had lived a comfortable life all her life. She had never thought that she would suffer such a huge setback in her old age.
Heaven’s will. To hell with that bullsh*t Heaven’s will. If it really was Heaven’s will, why would he let her succeed back then?!
There was no such thing as heaven’s will. These things were determined by man.
Qi Xinyue stood up with the help of the table and walked out.
Uncle Qi could only watch helplessly, hoping that Qi Xinyue would find a way to resolve the matter.
“There must be a way. Eldest Master and First Madam have been husband and wife for forty years. Eldest Master will definitely think of a way to save them.”
Uncle Qi muttered to himself in panic.
As for Qi Xinyue, she went to the side courtyard after leaving the main courtyard.
Because she was angry, her dignified appearance was a little messy. She looked very vicious.
The maidservant who served the concubine went forward to stop her and said weakly, “Eldest Madam, Eldest Master and Concubine have already rested. Please allow me to report—ah—”
Without waiting for the maidservant to finish, Qi Xinyue raised her hand and slapped her. She scolded sternly, “Get lost. Who do you think you are to stop me?”
The maidservant didn’t even have time to cover her painful face before she hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy. “I know my mistake. Please show mercy, First Madam.”
Qi Xinyue went straight to the inner room. Her movements were so loud that she had long woken Yan Qingyun up.
The obedient maid didn’t say a word and immediately helped Yan Qingyun put on his clothes.
When Qi Xinyue rushed in, the maid knelt down to pay her respects.
Qi Xinyue glared at the maid angrily. Before she could speak, Yan Qingyun reprimanded her first. He looked at Qi Xinyue coldly and said, “Look at you. Where’s the dignity of the mistress of the household? You look more like a stray dog.”
Yan Qingyun’s straightforwardness made Qi Xinyue’s heart turn cold. She lowered her head and choked. “Master.”
“Let’s go back and talk.”
Yan Qingyun knew from Qi Xinyue’s expression that she had messed up.
Yan Qingyun suppressed the displeasure in his heart and did not make things difficult for Qi Xinyue immediately. This was his way of showing mercy to her.
Yan Qingyun strode out without waiting for Qi Xinyue.
Qi Xinyue gritted her teeth and followed closely behind.
When he returned to the main courtyard and saw Uncle Qi still kneeling on the ground, Yan Qingyun didn’t look happy.
In his opinion, they were all useless.
Qi Xinyue looked at the cold and heartless Yan Qingyun. She gritted her teeth and knelt down with a thud. “Master, we’ve been husband and wife for 40 years. Please save me for the sake of our child.”
Yan Qingyun looked at Qi Xinyue, who was kneeling on the ground. She no longer had the dignity of a matriarch. Her old face was filled with defeat, and she looked even more miserable than a homeless dog.
Yan Qingyun was unmoved. He said coldly, “I’ve said before that I have to settle this cleanly. If you can’t even handle such a small matter, what can I do? You should be very clear about the principle that the winner takes all. Back then, you bribed the mountain bandits to kidnap Yan Mian and cut off my marriage alliance with the Sun family. Did I pursue this matter?”
“Why do you think I didn’t pursue the matter back then?”
Yan Qingyun looked at his old wife kneeling in front of him and was not moved at all. Instead, he brought up the past coldly to let Qi Xinyue understand that he did not pursue the matter back then and did not make a move. Now that it was Qi Xinyue’s turn to be defeated, he would not make a move either.
Qi Xinyue could tell. She looked at Yan Qingyun and choked. “Master, but I’m Zhiyuan and Zhenzhen’s mother. For the sake of our children, won’t Master save me?”
Yan Qingyun looked at Qi Xinyue coldly and said mercilessly, “Who said anything about Zhiyuan and Zhenzhen? What you did has nothing to do with them. Back then, you were vicious and afraid that Mianmian would marry better than your daughter, Zhenzhen, so you had evil intentions and bribed the bandits to kidnap Mianmian. Now, you know that Mianmian has returned and are afraid that she will report the vicious things you did to her. You even called assassins to assassinate her, but they failed.”
“From the beginning to the end, this is your problem alone. It has nothing to do with the Yan family or my son and daughter. You’re from the Qi family. If there’s anything wrong, it’s because your Qi family didn’t discipline you well.”
After Yan Qingyun finished speaking coldly, he looked at Qi Xinyue’s ashen face.
He sneered and said, “If you’re smart, finish yourself off with a glass of poisonous wine. That way, I can guarantee that you’ll be buried in one piece. On the account that we’ve been husband and wife for forty years, this is my last chance to give you dignity. There are still two days left. Think about it carefully.”
Hearing these words, Qi Xinyue’s heart was already dead. She could no longer feel any hope.
When Uncle Qi heard this, he cried and kowtowed. “Master, you can’t give up on First Madam. Please save her.”
Uncle Qi crawled to Yan Qingyun’s side in tears and grabbed his robe with trembling hands.
