Chapter 37 CFV Ch.37 Going Back Home (1)Qin Zening pursed his lips mockingly.
He didn’t care whether Qin Xin went to the second branch or not. He was already eighteen. Sooner or later, he would be able to leave the family and live alone! He was fine as long as Qin Xin wasn’t under his parents’ name!
Qin Xin’s eyelashes trembled a little as she looked at Qin Zhun.

“I guess, that’s okay.” Madam Qin nodded, again and again. “Qin Zhun, let’s put Xin’er’s name under yours. Let’s say that your wife gave birth to her in exile!”
“Mother, this doesn’t seem right!” Marchioness Su hesitantly said hesitatingly, “I’m afraid no one will believe that our family threw two girls away in three years long exile.”
When they brought Qin Xin back then, they had said to outsiders that the daughter of the eldest branch was accidentally lost in exile. If the daughter of the second branch was similarly lost in exile… this will be nothing more than treating others as fools.
Although the emperor and empress might know what was going on but it still needed to be hidden from the outside world.
“Mother.” An intelligent gleam flashed past Qin Zhun’s eyes. “Do you remember that when I was away fifteen years ago, A’Yuan was with a child.”
When Qin Zhun spoke of this, not just Madam Qin remembered but even Marchioness Su recalled.

But it wasn’t long before Marchioness Su received the news of her paternal grandmother’s death. Presumably, she was pregnant after the death of her grandmother. According to the rules, she must observe mourning. So the couple discussed and quietly decided to abort the child. So, not many people knew about it.
“If that child was born, he would have been half a year older than Xin’er.” Madam Qin was also tempted.
And at the end of the day, they were left with no other better way.
Qin Zhun could only bite the bullet. “Then, let’s do this. After the elder brother’s daughter comes back, I will write Xin’er’s name under ours and open the ancestral hall together.”
Her husband had agreed. Even her mother-in-law had agreed. Although Marchioness Su was feeling a little unhappy, she knew that there was no room for her to talk about this matter. So, she readily agreed.
Sure enough, Qin Zhun gave her a grateful glance. He felt that Marchioness Su bore the overall situation in mind and put general interest above all.
