289 I Have a Wife

At this point, if they still didn’t know that Qin Huai was deliberately extorting money, they would really be stupid.

However, the fact that the child was angry meant that there was still a reaction.

Duke Yong was about to say that he would pay for this small sum of money.

It was no big deal to coax his grandson.

“In that case, let him recuperate well.” The last few words were emphasized.

The young woman took out a jade seal from her pocket, and her personal maid handed the seal to the guard.

The guard took the seal and cupped his hands. “Yes, I’ll take my leave!”

After that, the three of them chatted for a while before dispersing.

After the young woman returned to her room, she rubbed her temples, not sleepy at all.

Her personal maid asked, “Madam, are you going to see the Young Master?”

Usually, at this time, the Madam would send someone to see the Young Master, but today, she did not give the order.

“Let him come over,” the young woman said.

“Yes.”

15 minutes later, Qin Huai, dressed in thin black clothes, stood in front of the young woman. “Madam.”

The young woman stared at him. “Hm? You just extorted 100,000 taels from me, and you’re still acting like this?”

The jade carving seal just now could be used as a token in the bank to withdraw 100,000 taels of silver.

According to her understanding of Qin Huai, he would not stop until he received at least 70 or 80 thousand taels of silver.

Qin Huai remained silent.

“I only asked the girl to bring you some food and you’re throwing a tantrum? You’ve recovered from your illness, but your irritable personality has become even worse.”

Qin Huai still did not speak.

The young woman stared at Qin Huai for a long time. Seeing that he did not intend to answer her, she said, “I heard that you have a playmate in that village. It’s a little girl. It’s said that their family has already moved to town and even opened a bun shop?”

Hearing about Little Ah Yu, Qin Huai looked up.

Unexpectedly, she still managed to find out about it.

“You gave them all the money I gave you?” The young woman sneered. “Is that kind of family worthy of your attention?”

From her tone, she was already certain that Qin Huai had given the money to that family, especially that little girl.

She was five years old this year, but she announced to the public that she was three years old. She was even a small noble who had been abandoned.

That kind of young lady must be very scheming. Even if her skills were not good enough in her eyes, Qin Huai was still young and had not interacted much with the people and matters of the outside world. It was normal for him to be deceived.

Qin Huai actually opened his mouth at this point and said, “No.”

“No what? Forget it, there’s no need to say anything.” She wouldn’t even care about a girl of that class.

And she didn’t want to hear anything about her.

“Since you’re determined to take the Imperial Examination, I won’t stop you. I’ll naturally find a proper post for you and let you prepare for the examination in peace. However, you shouldn’t be thinking about things you shouldn’t at such a young age.”

Actually, the reason why the young woman arranged for that little girl was because a few days ago, her maidservant went to Qin Huai’s study and accidentally found a portrait.

The painting was of a little girl running in the wilderness with her hair tied up in two little pigtails. She was wearing a simple dress and a tattered cloth bag hung diagonally at her waist.

There was also a little lamb running beside her.

That little girl looked very obedient, and her eyes could be said to be exquisite.

Especially when she closed her eyes and laughed, one could accurately feel her innocence and brightness.

From this painting alone, one could feel the artist’s admiration for the person in the painting.

The maidservant secretly took this painting to show the young woman. The young woman felt that Qin Huai might be going through a puppy love phase.

She naturally had to restrain him.

As for the child having such thoughts at the age of seven, she did not think it was ridiculous. It was not even the first time she had seen such a thing.

“If you want a wife, I’ll naturally find the best one for you.” The little girl whom she had sent over just now was arranged to warm the bed in the future.

However, he did not fancy her.

“I have a wife,” Qin Huai said.

He had agreed that when he grew up, he would marry her.

If the person in front of him was unwilling to make an exception, he would pack his things and marry into the Wang family.
