Chapter 15: Clear your name from now on
In order to make up for her mistake this time, Qin took the initiative to become a vegetarian from now on, and not eat any meat or fish, in order to atone for her sins from the ancestors of the Huo family and ask for their forgiveness.

Although there were no major consequences this time, her image in everyone's minds has been greatly reduced since then.

So many years of hard work were all ruined. Although she refused to accept it, she had to bow her head in front of the facts.

Seeing that her attitude was so sincere, Mr. Huo couldn't say anything else. After all, under her care over the years, the Rongguo Duke's mansion was also in good order, and it was said that he was an enviable aristocratic family.

So for the sake of seeing this, Mr. Huo didn't make it particularly difficult for her. After saying a few words to her, he asked her to start preparing for the repair of the ancestral hall, so as not to keep the ancestors of the Huo family waiting too long.

Just when Qin received the order and was about to retreat, Huo Jiuge stopped her from behind.

"Auntie, what did you forget?" Huo Jiuge kindly reminded: "Although Qiu Chan and Dong Mei are just my maids, they are also children of good families, and they are still in the boudoir, and now they are being framed. Clean, if this spreads out, will it be misunderstood that you can't tolerate me, and are deliberately targeting the maid next to me?"

"My reputation as Huo Jiuge doesn't matter, but what I'm worried about is that the Huo family will have a reputation of being a restless family."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mr. Huo, who said with a hint of sullenness: "Who said your reputation doesn't matter? The reputation of our children in the Huo family is the most important, and we cannot tolerate any slander. !”

After Mr. Huo said this, he looked at Huo Jiuge, his eyes full of admiration and love for this sensible granddaughter: "If Jiuge hadn't rushed into the fire regardless of the danger this time, I'm afraid it would have caused a bigger disaster. Disaster."

Qin's expression suddenly changed. During the whole process, she was led by Huo Jiuge. Although she didn't know what the relationship between the cat and her was, seeing her look like this, she seemed to have expected it. It seems like this is going to happen.

In the past, everything in the Rongguo Duke's mansion was in order under his care, but now it is almost causing trouble, even the ancestral hall was destroyed, and even people were almost killed. Naturally, there was such a big commotion. It will attract the attention of the old man and make him doubt whether he is really capable of taking care of the entire Rongguo Palace.

And all of this changed after Huo Jiuge came. One can imagine how clever her methods are.

Since her engagement was broken off by the third prince, not only has she not become depressed, but she has become more energetic, which makes people wonder if she is still the good-for-nothing Huo Jiuge.

Mrs. Qin was thinking about it for a while, but Huo Qingwu couldn't stand the old man speaking for Huo Jiuge. She stood up and said: "The Huo family ancestral hall has been safe and sound for so many years, why did a fire break out as soon as she came back? She obviously did all this. She caused the trouble because she deliberately lured us there."

Huo Jiuge raised his lips. The frame-up failed, but the ancestral hall was set on fire, but he still didn't know how to repent. Was he really so easy to bully?Sure enough, Huo Qingwu was scolded by the old man as soon as he finished speaking.

"Shut up! With your virtues, you don't even look like a young lady. Is this how your mother taught you the rules?"

The mother Mr. Huo refers to is not Huo Qingwu's biological mother Lin, but Qin who is standing in front of them.Since ancient times, aunts have had the task of educating their children. Regardless of whether they are eldest children or concubines, the aunt-in-law teaches them etiquette and etiquette.

Huo Qingwu's words were undoubtedly a slap in Qin's face.Mrs. Qin did not stop her behavior but continued following her words: "Father, don't blame Qing Wu for being so arrogant. She was just concerned about the safety of Huo Mansion. After all, the ancestral hall is the resting place of the ancestors. Today Being made such a fuss will inevitably offend the ancestors. Qing Wu was just worried that some evil and obscure things would disturb the ancestor Qing Xiu, so he said such words, and did not mean to accuse Jiu Ge. "

After her reminder, everyone remembered that one winter, a Taoist priest came to the house and said that the Rongguo Duke's house was now shrouded in an evil spirit. If this evil spirit was not driven away, I was afraid that there would be more evil in the future. It will lead to a greater bloody disaster.

This sentence made everyone in the house panic, especially Mr. Huo. He had just sent a man with white hair away from a man with black hair, so he believed in this sentence.

After experiencing the death of his parents, Huo Jiuge naturally became the object of everyone's suspicion. Just at this time, someone from Jinling came, saying that the Shen family wanted to pick up Huo Jiuge.

The Huo family members immediately packed their things and stuffed the young Huo Jiuge into the carriage. From then on, they ignored him for many years and lived a peaceful life.

Huo Jiuge sneered in his heart, Huo Qingwu was worthy of being a child who grew up next to Qin, and he always considered her when he spoke.

"So does Auntie suspect that I am that evil and obscure thing?" Rather than letting them take the initiative, it would be better to strike first. Huo Jiuge asked directly.

The subtext here is that their second wife couldn't tolerate her, and they deliberately made up some strange and confusing things to arrange her. Her move was really clever, and now it was their second wife who was in a dilemma.

As expected, Mrs. Qin was stunned for a moment. She couldn't answer Huo Jiuge's question in front of everyone, so she could only choose another way, "If Jiuge, where are you, how could I regard you as ominous? It's just Some things would rather be believed to exist than not believed to exist, so it’s better to be careful.”

"I still feel that my aunt's words are a bit to blame." Huo Jiuge said aggrievedly: "When my father had an accident, Jiuge went to the temple with his mother to pray for blessings. Unexpectedly, there were robbers blocking the way. My mother wanted to protect her. I'm willing to risk my life."

"My father was a general who ruled the country during his lifetime, and my mother was also a first-class lady. They were both personally granted the title by the emperor. My father sacrificed his life for the entire Northern Zhou Dynasty, but now you say that he was killed by me. This is not only a slander. He killed me, and even more so, he slandered this world’s hero!”

"My brother is still at the border now. By saying this, don't you hope that something will happen to him as soon as possible?"

Huo Jiuge spoke aggressively, and Mrs. Qin broke into a cold sweat after hearing what she said. No matter how she answered, it was wrong. The only solution was to bow her head and admit her mistake. But how could she, the royal censor, Mrs. What about apologizing to a brat?Not to mention that she was Huo Jiuge's elder. She would not do such a humiliating thing!
The two of them were in a stalemate, until a maid ran in and said, "Oh no, the young master has contracted the plague!"

The young master she was talking about was Huo Changbai, who offended Huo Jiuge that day, and was also Qin's youngest son.

Like a huge thunder that shook the sky, Qin lost his balance in an instant. It was the maid beside him who supported him to prevent him from falling.
