She then politely greeted her cousins and relatives.
Qin Zhenzhen could sense that her cousins were all looking at her with peculiar expressions. They must have noticed that she was different from before.
Perhaps it was due to the original host’s forced marriage to Su Bin that these cousins looked down on her.
However, Qin Zhenzhen didn’t let their judgment affect her. The original host deserved to be looked down upon by her cousins.
While she was in the restroom, she overheard her cousin Yang Lan whispering to her sister.
“Everyone knows she’s here to see her stolen husband, but she claims she’s here to see our father. How shameless of her!”
Yang Cui quickly silenced her sister.
“Stop it! She might confront you if she hears this. You know our father spoils her because of Aunt’s sake.
Qin Zhenzhen was taken aback—was the original host really so confrontational?
Then she heard Yang Lan say, “Yeah, even her father and uncle didn’t stop her from stealing that handsome man.”
“I heard she even used Uncle’s name as a threat to marry into the Su Family.”
“She’s not worthy of him, just look at her plain appearance!”
Yang Cui grew furious. “Enough! It’s already a done deal, why are you defending him?”
“If outsiders hear this, they might even think you like him too!” Yang Lan defended herself. “I don’t like him! It’s Sister Jing who likes him!” Before she could finish her sentence, Yang Cui covered her mouth.
“Say another word and I’ll slap you. Otherwise, you’ll get Sister Jing into trouble! ”
Qin Zhenzhen frowned.
It appeared that these cousins were well-acquainted with Su Bin and held a favorable opinion of him. They were defending him for marrying Qin
Zhenzhen.
Sister Jing was likely Uncle’s daughter, Yang Jing.
In the original storyline, after Su Bin gained power, he married Yang Jing and subjected her to torment until her death. However, the book didn’t mention these cousins having any particular fondness for Su Bin.
Nevertheless, none of this was of great significance to Qin Zhenzhen. As long as she and Su Bin were divorced, these cousins would no longer have any connection to him.
After lunch, Qin Silong and Eldest Uncle informed them that they were heading to Heren Store for a business deal.
Upon hearing the whole story, Yang Gang praised Qin Zhenzhen. “Zhenzhen, you’re keeping something from us!”
“Hahaha, at this rate, you’ll soon be able to purchase fields and hire servants with your remarkable speed in making money!”
Qin Zhenzhen glanced at Yang Lan, who shot her a disdainful look. She didn’t believe what her Fourth Brother had said.
After all, she was just a young girl, and they had no time to argue with her.
Qin Zhenzhen and Qin Silong headed to Heren Store first.
Coincidentally, they encountered Manager Wang in the pharmacy.
Qin Zhenzhen then presented the samples and the letter to Manager Wang.
Manager Wang read the letter, inspected the yams, and provided his response.
If the sundried yams matched the samples precisely, they could purchase an unlimited amount at the same price offered by the pharmacies in town: 30 wen per half a kilo.
With the yam business successfully negotiated, the siblings proceeded to Yihong Courtyard.
Qin Zhenzhen inquired, “Fourth Brother, is the brothel where Su Bin was framed located in this Yihong Courtyard?”
Qin Zhenzhen had no prior knowledge that Su Bin had been set up by a prostitute.
But Qin Silong was aware of the details. “Yes, that’s the one. The woman’s name is Honglian, and she’s the top courtesan in the Yihong Courtyard..”
