The Yao family has always looked down on the second room, and when they heard Qin Youyi ask, they couldn't help but sneer: "I have already sent a letter to that side, and the eldest sister has also sent someone to send a letter to that side, but there has been no movement, and she is actually pretending to be dead!"

Qin Youyi frowned: "The second aunt still doesn't like the eldest sister? Why bother? The eldest sister has been married for almost 20 years, and she has never lacked courtesy to her mother and brother, and the second aunt is not even willing to do the work on the face? The second uncle has been dead for so many years, why can't the second aunt still look away? If she really has affection for the second uncle, it would be fine, when the Qin family was in trouble in the past, she walked so simply, but Aunt Zhang never gave up, stayed and gave birth to the eldest sister, serving Grandmother Ye and Aunt Fu, I don't know how much suffering she suffered. Later, the Qin family was rehabilitated, and the second aunt wanted to take the lobby brother back to the Qin family, how could anyone in the Qin family ever say anything? It was all for the sake of the lobby brother being the second uncle's flesh and blood, and the eldest sister still respected the second aunt as a mother-in-law. But she herself disregarded her face and repeatedly embarrassed her eldest sister, where does she look like a housewife?"

"The mother and son in the second room have always been confused, if they had understood a little, they would not have ended up today. Yao sneered and said, "I often tell your brother that it's stupid enough to want to climb the high branches over there, but ignore the ready-made high branches." The Cheng Ri family thought about what was the use of the princes and nobles? It was impossible for them to let the uncle be promoted to an official and make a fortune. is the eldest brother-in-law, who was originally a child of a family, was born in the imperial examination, and became a four-grade prefect outside. If the second room is willing to put down his body and say a few good words, and coax the eldest brother-in-law to be willing to help with the dots, he may not be able to find a vacancy for the uncle. Uncle has been working in Beijing for many years as a six-grade official, and if he is released, how can he get a five-grade official? If he stays outside for a few years, as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, he will be able to get a fourth-grade qualification. Only when you are an official can you really get on the stage and get into the eyes of these nobles in Beijing. Jinyi girl is older, she can't be counted on, Jinchun is also a concubine, she doesn't look bad, and her temperament is good, so she may not be able to marry a big family. It's a pity that everyone in the second room is blinded by lard, and the second aunt is confused. It's rare that your sister-in-law understands a little, but she is too timid to say more. It should be that his family is falling worse and worse day by day, and people look down on him!"

Qin Youyi heard the words of the eldest sister-in-law, but felt a little harsh: "Sister-in-law, don't say that." That's the eldest sister's maiden relative. According to me, if the eldest sister returns to Beijing this time, it would be fine if she only stayed for a short time for a month or two, and moved into Fuguiju, but she only said that there was no extra room in the second room, and she could not accommodate so many people in her daughter and son-in-law's family. If you want to stay in Beijing for a long time in the future, it is better for the eldest sister's family to buy another house. Even if her brother and sister-in-law help her buy a house, it is better to ask her to live in the brother's house in the next room and make people gossip. ”

Yao was a little disapproving: "Where to live in the future, naturally the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law make up their minds, if they are willing to live in our long house, why not? Although the eldest sister is the daughter of the second room, she almost grew up in our long house, and she has been raised by her wife since she was a child." In addition to blood, what does it have to do with the second room? If the second room still needs to have a face and know how to do some superficial work, the eldest sister is closer to that side, and there is nothing to do, in the end, there is etiquette. But the second room is clearly not even willing to do superficial work, and he doesn't take his daughter and son-in-law into account at all, so why should we worry about them, and we have to let the eldest sister's family go out and suffer? Don't take the gossip outside too seriously. What is the current situation in the second room? Who else in the capital is willing to speak for them? The eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law have lived in our house for a few years, and who will meddle in their affairs and jump out to talk about it? The water spilled by the married daughter, even if it is the mother-in-law and brother-in-law, can't control the son-in-law's head, right?"

Qin Youyi pursed her lips, although she knew in her heart that her sister-in-law's words were not completely unreasonable, but she just didn't like Yao's statement. The eldest sister Qin Youzhen has been away from Beijing with her husband for many years, and it is not easy to live outside. The brother-in-law of the Lu family went to Beijing to report on his work this time, and he asked for a promotion. At this time, reputation and reputation are very important. If someone gossips and affects the future of the brother-in-law, wouldn't it be terrible? It's just a matter of entertaining the second room, as long as you do superficial work, what's so difficult? The eldest sister-in-law just stands and talks without backache, she is the daughter-in-law in the next room, so naturally she doesn't have to look at the face of the second room, but the eldest sister is different from her. Even if the eldest sister doesn't care about herself, she has to think about the reputation of her brother-in-law and several children.

However, although Qin Youyi did not agree with Yao's words, she would not refute the other party face to face at this time. Today, Yao's son Qin Jian did her a favor, and what the third uncle Qin Bai promised her has not yet been done, and there will always be a time to ask for her mother's family in the future, and it is too unwise to offend Yao's now. She didn't like her eldest sister-in-law, but she couldn't help but give face to her mother, brother and nephew, so she resisted the urge to speak, and only smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is right." Then the conversation changed, and they talked about other family things, and no longer mentioned the eldest sister and the second room.

Yao talked to Qin Youyi about where Su Zhongying was best to put outside. What can Yao know? It's just that he listens to the gossip of his husband and son on weekdays and understands some skins, but he is very enthusiastic about giving advice to his sister-in-law.

"Liaodong is the territory of the Liao Wangfu, and it is a land of bitter cold. If the brother-in-law is interested, he can ask Brother Jian to find the king of Suning County to inquire. The king of Suning County is the grandson of the Liao Wangfu, so he must be familiar with it. It's just that I think it's better for my sister and brother-in-law to take the child with me, or not to pick Liaodong. It's okay to say in the summer, but the winter over there is too cold, and I'm afraid the children won't be able to stand it. In fact, Yao's is also hearsay, "The northwest is not good, it is also bitter cold over there, and the wind and sand are big." Just look at the situation in the third room. The third uncle and the third aunt still have a house and land over there, and how much money is paid to Beijing every year? Besides, the most effective thing in the army over there is either the Qin Wangfu or the old general's Ma Lao's house, and everyone else is just attached to them, so why should the brother-in-law go down with one foot?"

Yao's also has a promising location: "Datong is good. Although it is also guarded by the people of the Ma family, it is better to be close to the capital, but only six or seven hundred miles. The three-room Qin An's family is over there, I heard that the three-room still has business in Datong, and the foreign family of the king of Suning County is a big local businessman, and that area is also considered rich. If my sister and brother-in-law go there, firstly, there are relatives and friends to help them, secondly, they do not have to suffer too much in daily life, and thirdly, I heard the third aunt mention that Datong has not been at war for many years, and the garrison over there is most enthusiastic about training on weekdays, and the generals who have trained well are promoted more easily than others. I thought of my brother-in-law's weekdays in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, but he was busy training troops, and his skills could come in handy in Datong. If you stay there for a few years, you will definitely be promoted when you return to Beijing, and it will not be too difficult to return to the Su family army when the time comes. ”

Qin Youyi was a little hesitant: "I'll go back and discuss it with my father-in-law." I don't know any of these things, but I don't dare to make my own decisions. ”

Yao smiled: "Of course. For such a big matter, I didn't expect my sister to make a decision on her own. She continued to introduce other places to Qin Youyi, "Tianjin is also good." Do you still remember your cousin of the Huang family? He stayed in Tianjin Wei a few years ago, and there are still many old subordinates there. Tianjin is not only close to the capital, but also rich, and stronger than Datong. It's just that with such a fat gap, there are more people fighting, and the brother-in-law is not so easy to succeed. But if you can really transfer to Tianjin, you can come back at any time when you want to go home in the future, which is very convenient. ”

Qin Youyi smiled. If it was really that convenient, she didn't like it anymore. I am afraid that my mother-in-law will send people to "visit" her son, daughter-in-law and grandson from time to time and give them instructions on how to arrange their daily life. Occasionally, she would go out to put on incense, or let her son ride a horse and practice archery, and within a few days, the news would reach her mother-in-law's ears.

Yao continued to tell Qin Youyi about Jinling and other places, because there was Huang Jincheng there, and it was the ancestral home of the Qin family, which was also an excellent choice. Qin Youyi was a little moved, and was about to inquire if there was a vacancy in Jinlingwei, when she heard a few noises outside the door, and couldn't help but stop.

Yao was about to speak, when he was suddenly interrupted, he was naturally unhappy, so he raised his voice and asked, "Who is making noise outside?!"

Yumei lifted the curtain and entered the house and replied: "Brother Su heard that the second aunt and grandmother are back, and she wants to come to ask for peace." The slaves and maids said that grandma was talking to the second aunt and grandmother, and asked Su Ge'er to go back to the house, but he refused, so they quarreled. ”

Hearing that it was the concubine who was making a noise, Yao became even more angry: "You have to let him mess around in front of my door?! Why don't you hurry up and drive people back to his yard?!"

Qin Youyi hurriedly said: "Brother Su is also a filial piety, let him come in and ask me to say goodbye, and then let him go back, why should my sister-in-law be angry?"

Yao said disapprehantly: "Where does he have any filial piety? It's just that seeing that his sister is soft-hearted, he came to please you, so that you can coax him to reward him with more things." The little cub is cunning, and my sister doesn't have to pay attention to him. Still ordered Yumei to call a few powerful mothers-in-law to come and take Qin Su away.

Qin Youyi's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she endured it and endured it, so she didn't say anything, but she felt that her eldest sister-in-law was even more mean than in previous years. It's a shame that the Yao family just said that the second aunt treats the concubine harshly, and she treats the concubine now, why isn't she harsh? Qin Su is just a child, and he is the eldest brother's own flesh and blood, the Yao family despises him like this, obviously he doesn't take the eldest brother's face to heart, what good is it for his reputation?

Although Yao still wanted to continue talking, Qin Youyi couldn't sit still, and took the initiative to stand up: "It's not too early, I want to go back to Songfeng Hall to see, ......have my mother and children woken up?" Yao smiled enthusiastically and asked: "Shall I go back with my sister?" Qin Youyi politely refused: "Don't bother your sister-in-law, sister-in-law is busy, it's better to rest more." ”

Qin Youyi took the girl away, Yao sent her out of the courtyard, sat down in the middle of the house, put away the smile on her face, and sneered.

Yulan brought her a new hot tea: "Grandma, what's wrong?"

Yao said sarcastically: "It's nothing, I just think that our aunt and grandmother are becoming more and more confused now, and they pity that evil seed and secretly get angry with me." Can't I see her? She really doesn't hurt her back when she stands and talks! She is a good person, and the Su family has no concubines and concubines to hinder her eyes. She hasn't suffered any hardships, but she has the leisure to be a good person, and she blames me for being mean. What a joke! When she has suffered the loss of the concubine, it will not be too late to scold me again!"
