Chapter 60
At this time, Master Kong stepped forward to support Zou Chongyu, and said to Tang Ren: "The matter has come to this point, the truth is not the truth, it is irrelevant. My family has decided to rebuild the old relationship with the Zou family, and Qingqiu will marry the Zou family soon, Mr. Tang , I, the Kong family, are sorry for you, I will pay you 5000 taels of gold as an apology, and when Qingqiu wakes up, I will also let her return the treasure that took you."

Seeing this scene, the Great Confucian sighed, bid farewell to Tang Ren immediately, flung his wide sleeves, and left.

Tang Ren knew that the general situation was over, but he was still struggling: "Master Kong, you arranged this way, but Gu Qingqiu's feelings? She is like this today, why, don't you know?"

Master Kong: "She won't sacrifice the lives of the whole family for her own affair, and you won't do this to us, will you?"

Tang Ren was stunned, he couldn't answer this question.

He didn't know how to answer.

In the evening, the distraught Zou Chongyu returned home. Mr. Zou read from his thoughts what happened in the Confucian mansion during the day, and he was surprised: If Kong Qingqiu really returned the treasure to Tang Ren, then what would his planning for the past few days be? Isn't it all abolished?Not only will he marry a daughter-in-law who has lost his heart, but he will also offend a young man who may become a thousand households in the future?

This kind of thing must never happen.

So, he activated his newly developed secret child around Kong Qingqiu - her maid.

This maid was doing her own small business behind her master's back, Kong Qingqiu knew about it but kept it a secret for her, and did not let Master Kong know.

After Zou Qianhu found out about this matter, he took advantage of the maidservant.

Zou Qianhu asked the maid to light special incense in Kong Qingqiu's house at You hour three days later, and then went to Tang Ren and told him that Kong Qingqiu asked him to meet in the boudoir.

Tang Ren was really fooled and sneaked into Kong Qingqiu's room with the help of his maid.

After Kong Qingqiu and his parents and brothers finished dinner, they returned to the room and saw Tang Ren waiting for him.

Tang Ren felt the power of the book and knew that Qingqiu was back. He did not look back, but said slowly: "Since you have decided, I have nothing to say. This book can be regarded as my wedding gift to you. . I will leave early tomorrow morning, and it will be a long journey from now on. You take care of yourself."

Kong Qingqiu felt extremely distressed in her heart, she stretched out her hand, wanting to say something, but couldn't say anything.

"I'm sorry," she said.

Tang Ren: "Don't tell me you're sorry. The whole thing was originally my wishful thinking, I started it first, and I brought you into this cage. Now, since I already know that you have a matchmaker's words, it is your responsibility to keep the contract." As a merchant family, you have nothing to do to me."

After a pause, he turned around, looked deeply into Kong Qingqiu's eyes, and asked, "Just, do you really want to marry that kind of person? You know what he's plotting, but you still have to confess Give it to him?"

Kong Qingqiu didn't look at him.

She lowered her head and shed a few tears on her embroidered robe, and the begonia-colored material immediately showed some bright red.

Tang Ren took a few steps forward and asked: "Or, are you just trying to gain power in his family just like your parents? You don't care about the character of the person you marry at all? You don't even care whether he has the same mind as you ?”

Kong Qingqiu suddenly raised his head, and said firmly, "No, that's not the case!"

With just this one glance, Kong Qingqiu was overwhelmed by the grievance and depression in her heart, her vision blurred, and her whole body softened.

Tang Ren quickly stepped forward and supported her.

"What's wrong with you!" Tang Ren gently helped her sit on the chair.

"You're like this, how can I leave at ease...Come on, take a drink." After speaking, Tang Ren poured out a glass of water from the teapot on the table and handed it to Jin Miaomiao.

Green smoke curls from the copper incense burner on the table, exuding a refreshing aroma.

"I remember that the incense you used before doesn't seem to have this smell..." Before he finished speaking, Tang Ren also shook his head with his forehead, as if he had also entered a state of dizziness.

"What's going on..." Before he could finish speaking, Kong Qingqiu had already buried his face in his neck.

The embrace is warm, eager and enthusiastic.

In her heart, she was struggling with the next move, but it seemed that her hands and feet were not in control.

Kong Qingqiu and Tang Ren hugged each other and fell into the weft tent, their emotions as ambiguous as the green smoke around them.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open by someone, and Zou Chongyu rushed in first.
"What are you doing!"

Ever since he and Kong Qingqiu confirmed their marriage, Zou Chongyu would come to Kong's mansion every afternoon to wait for Qingqiu to talk to him.

But Kong Qingqiu has always avoided seeing him.

Today, Zou Chongyu's father, Zou Qianhu, asked him to take Qingqiu out for a walk after dinner, maybe this would make Qingqiu happier.

The servant of the Zou family who followed Zou Chongyu was also temporarily added by Zou Qianhu, saying that he was "worried" that the young couple would be crowded when they went to the night market.

A group of people crowded into Kong Qingqiu's courtyard in a lively manner, only to see her personal maid standing in front of the closed door, pacing back and forth anxiously.

Zou Chongyu: "What's wrong with you? Where's your lady?"

The maid panicked and said, "I...I...my young lady, young lady...she's not here!"

But there was clearly movement in the room.

Zou Chongyu was full of doubts, stepped forward and pushed the maidservant away, and kicked open the door.

The moment he opened the door, spring light suddenly appeared in the room. Zou Chongyu felt ashamed and annoyed, so he immediately stepped forward and pushed the two of them away.

Immediately afterwards, the crowd swarmed up like a tide.

Kong Qingqiu was pulled, pushed, and slapped to the ground.

But her mind was in chaos, and she couldn't organize her limbs to resist effectively, and she couldn't even utter a word.

She watched helplessly as she was crammed into a rough cage.

Then there was a sky-shattering whirring and a dizzying shaking.

She and Tang Ren were carried out of the yard.

As soon as they left the courtyard, Kong Qingqiu saw Master Kong and Mrs. Kong frantically trying to pull her down, but was pushed to the ground by Zou Chongyu's servants.

Kong Dalang rushed forward to save Tang Ren, but Zou Chongyu kicked him into the air.

Kong Qingqiu and Tang Ren were carried out of the Confucian mansion. Along the way, the young servants of the Zou family shouted loudly how the two "behind their fiancé's backs" and lived together.

The excited passers-by threw countless stones and rotten vegetable leaves at the two.

The two of them couldn't speak a word, they could only hear the sound of water hitting the embankment getting closer and louder.

When they got to the shore, Zou Qianhu appeared.

He looked coldly at the disheveled two people in the cage, and said loudly: "My Zou family treats your Kong family wholeheartedly, regardless of previous suspicions, in order to fulfill my father's last wish, and even more to fulfill the promise of our Zou and Kong families. Unexpectedly , you, Kong Qingqiu, the daughter of a merchant family, actually did such a thing behind your fiancé's back! It's disgusting!"

"nausea!"

"Shameless!"

Passers-by echoed.

Zou Qianhu continued: "Today, I will exercise my responsibility as Qianhu and sentence you two to sink into the pond, so that the world will know what the price of betrayal is!"

As a result, Kong Qingqiu felt a lightness all over his body, followed by a piercing pain and biting coldness.

She was thrown into the river.

The cold river water quickly flooded her chest, abdomen, mouth and nose.
