Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 146: The Qin Family Deserved Their Ending in the Novel
He emptied the contents of the bag, revealing a thick stack of colorful postage stamps. "Kaize mentioned that you like collecting these, so he asked me to find the special stamps issued by the unit for you. I have some of them, and for the ones missing, I traded with friends. The whole set is here," Xia Weiguo explained, then placed the stamps back in the leather bag.
"Thank you, Uncle Xia," Su Yijia said, and without hesitation, she turned to Qin Kaize, her lips curving into a sweet and tender smile. She didn’t want to jump into his arms, so she playfully winked at him instead.
Qin Kaize smiled in response, like a brilliant moon on a spring night, radiant and dazzling. Xia Weiguo had never seen him like this before and suddenly understood that, even though his body was immobile, it didn’t affect his emotional communication with his wife.
After she stored the stamps safely, Su Yijia instinctively flipped over the last bankbook. Although she had already suspected that it contained a significant amount of money, the actual figure still left her in awe.
"Three hundred thousand?!"
How could there be so much? Would depositing such a large sum of money raise suspicions at the bank?
Su Yijia looked at Xia Weiguo and Qin Kaize with a hint of worry.
Xia Weiguo reassured her, "Don’t worry, the money in this account is completely legitimate. Furthermore, in a little over a month, we’ll be able to openly declare that it’s the inheritance left behind by Kaize’s mother, and it won’t be a problem."
He returned to the unit for a meeting, which basically settled that the dispute over one’s background would be abolished, so Qin Kaize’s grandparents would soon be able to return from the farm.
"Really? That’s wonderful!" Su Yijia exclaimed, pretending to be genuinely surprised. In reality, she had anticipated this outcome. People in such positions naturally were knowledgeable about such matters.
"So you can spend this money however you like. Kaize is a good kid; he won’t be stingy with his wife," Xia Weiguo took the opportunity to praise Qin Kaize, seemingly afraid that Su Yijia might change her mind.
"That’s right, our Kaize is generous and has a broad heart. Entrusting you to him, we feel completely at ease. The two of us old folks are a hundred percent confident," Grandma Lin added, echoing Xia Weiguo.
Su Yijia looked at them with confusion. "Grandma, after only chatting for a short while, why do you suddenly like him so much?"
"You said that Kaize’s health could improve, which already reassured us. Besides, Kaize mentioned that once Su Xinyue marries into the Qin family, he plans to divide the family within a week and live with t us," Grandma Lin explained, her joy evident in her nodding.
Within a week?! That fast? If she’s not present, will the outcome where the Qin family falls into ruin be changed due to the butterfly effect? After all the nauseating experiences of the past two weeks, would they have been in vain?
"Qin family isn’t worth your time," Qin Kaize said as he noticed Su Yijia’s conflicted gaze turning towards him. He blinked and tried to reassure her. However, her brow remained furrowed.
Qin Kaize continued, "Rest assured, I won’t let them off."
I want to make them fall together with the Su family, keeping the Su couple as company. Can you do that, too? Su Yijia silently mocked in her heart.
Although Qin’s father wasn’t a good person, he was Qin Kaize’s biological father, so it was more important for her to deal with this matter. Following the book’s plotline, she could make the Qin family fall and shift the blame onto Su Xinyue.
With her determination in mind, Su Yijia reluctantly agreed, "Okay, then let’s live in the house I just bought. I really like its style."
Even though there were many small houses in Hu City, ones with such a unique and era-appropriate design were quite rare. So, she wasn’t bothered that her mother’s remains were still inside. After all, this story was set historical context, not a supernatural or mystical world, so there shouldn’t be any strange occurrences.
"Grandpa, Grandma, I’ll take you to the supply and marketing cooperative first to buy what you need. We’ll return for lunch. Once we pick a good day and place, we can bury Mom’s remains," Su Yijia stood up and pushed Qin Kaize’s wheelchair. She intended to take him back to the room to change.
"Mom’s remains have already been dug out? Did you report it to the police?" Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin wore puzzled expressions. When Comrade Xia came to see them, he said that they had just discovered that Baozhu was killed by their niece and her husband.
The remains were found, and they were planning to wait until they returned to dig them out and bury them properly. Why was it different now?
"Yes, I’ve reported it. Su Jianshe and Lin Cuifen have been sentenced, and they will be executed before October," Su Yijia’s heart skipped a beat, nearly escaping her throat. She had no intention of letting the two elderly people know about what the elder generation of the Su family had done, or they might get a stroke, given their frail health.
"Good, good, good! They deserved it! Those two heartless creatures should pay for what they did to Baozhu," Grandma Lin exclaimed excitedly, her eyes reddening, and she repeated her approval.
Grandpa Lin looked at Su Yijia with contentment, "Good child, decisive and capable; you’ll achieve great things."
Although his granddaughter was just a girl, he understood that she was quite capable and had potential.
"However, have not the other members of the Su and Lin families got involved in the past events?" Grandpa Lin seemed skeptical. The other members of the Su and Lin families could not be good people.
"All of them claimed to have been unaware of it, but whether they knew or not, they used my mom’s money..." Su Yijia paused before she revealed her ulterior motives. She didn’t want Xia Weiguo to know her schemes, so she didn’t share the rest of her thoughts.
"However, all the jobs they purchased with the money have been sold off, and the money is now in my hands," Su Yijia continued.
Although Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin were unwilling to let the other members of the Su and Lin families go free, the fact remained that the law had declared them innocent, and they had to accept that. Su Yijia, seeing the disappointment in their expressions, tried to console them, saying, "In the end, no one could have predicted what the final outcome for both the Su and Lin families would be, especially before the execution of Su Jianshe and Lin Cuifen. People as selfish as them might not have been able to share the good times and bear the hardships together."
Grandpa Lin took note of the underlying message in her words and quickly gathered his thoughts. No matter what they thought, it couldn’t affect Yijia. Yijia had already endured so much in the first twenty years of her life, and the situation had already turned out quite well. They couldn’t let her seek revenge against the people from the Su and Lin families due to their own emotions.
Living in hatred was an agonizing experience, and they couldn’t bear to see Yijia suffer that way.
