Qin Jinyi stayed at her mother's house for half a day angrily, and had an unpleasant lunch with her mother's relatives before returning to Pei Guogong's mansion.

Then she started having stomach pains.

No wonder she was so uncomfortable. This lunch at his mother's house, except for Qin Bofu because he was still in the yamen, and he agreed with his boss and colleagues to have a dinner, and he couldn't take time out to go home to see his eldest daughter because he was patronizing officialdom, everyone else in the family made Qin Jinyi angry, even the Xue family was no exception.

The Xue family has recently reconnected with her mother's family, although no one told her what trouble the Xue family is facing, but it does not prevent her from sensitively perceiving how embarrassing the mother's family once faced after losing the second room of the Qin family. This led to a paradoxical state of attitude.

On the one hand, she put on a condescending expression in front of her mother's family, and hinted in and out of her words, "You know it's wrong, right?

On the other hand, she is actively thinking about her mother's family, how to climb the high branches and tend to the flames, even if she still refuses to put down her body and reconcile with the long house and the third room, but she no longer stops her son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren from currying favor with Qin Bai in the third room. As for other high-ranking families who can reach it, she also has a tendency to deliberately stutter, such as the relationship between her youngest granddaughter Qin Jinchun and the Marquis of Yunyang, after Cai Seventeen was promoted to a thousand households, she no longer objected. The uncle of the Xue family wants to do business with the imperial court, although she doesn't know about rumors such as the war in Liaodong, but she also helps her daughter-in-law in front of her.

Therefore, when Qin Jinyi, the eldest granddaughter who has always loved and valued, returned to her parents' house, she repeated again and again: "Has the Pei family taught their second girl well? I have already asked Chen Liangyuan and the girl of the Chu family to privately inquire about what Chen Liangyuan and the girl of the Chu family are like at home and what they like to do. Although I haven't seen them, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes such a girl, it must be right to let Miss Pei Er follow it. Miss Pei Er seems to be a little too thin, and her skin is not white enough, you let your mother-in-law and them take care of it, let Pei Er Girl take care of it, don't care about the rules of filial piety, what to eat and drink in her own home, how can outsiders know? The most important thing is to let her be chosen! As long as she can gain a firm foothold in the East Palace, you will be able to be a sister-in-law in the future, and you are afraid that outsiders will not respect you for three points? If she can give birth to another imperial grandson, ouch, it will really be a great blessing! Look at how beautiful the country woman in the third room is now, and you will be more beautiful than her in the future!"

Qin Jinyi still doesn't understand this truth? But she is worried about it now.

Although the Pei family is keeping filial piety, they really ask for news outside in private. When they knew that the Chu family had a woman entering the palace, they began to be busy. Although Chu Yuniang was very low-key before entering the palace, her reputation was not obvious, and there were very few rumors, it is said that she was the same type as Chen Liangyuan, and she was born more beautiful. Then girls of the same type as them are obviously more in line with the preferences of the palace when choosing a concubine for the crown prince. Chu Yuniang's information is too little to mention, Chen Liangyuan has seen a lot of people, but Miss Pei Er and her are completely two types of people, and they can't eat more fat meat to raise fat during the filial piety period, Qin Jinyi came up with an idea and secretly invited a mother-in-law who used to be an errand in the Chen family to train Miss Pei, imitate her manners, words and deeds, but she trained Pei Er Girl, and she was making trouble. At this time, Pei Er's grandmother jumped out again and said that this was not appropriate. No matter how much it is imitated, it is not the original owner, if it is ignored by the prince because it is too similar to Chen Liangyuan, it will put the cart before the horse. And the girls who enter the palace naturally stand out in every way, so that people have nowhere to pick and choose, but if there is a violation of etiquette during the filial piety period, once they are denounced, they will be ruined for life, not to mention entering the palace, it is difficult to even say that they are married!

The ideas that the Xue family came up with were all thought of by Qin Jinyi, and they hadn't gotten the satisfactory results yet, so how could she listen to her grandmother now?

Not to mention Xiao Xue's mother, who refused to help and had a cold attitude, and Qin Jinchun, the little sister who was irrational and angry, Qin Jinyi thought about how shabby her wedding was, what is the current situation of her in-law's family, and her husband's future is unknown...... In contrast, Qin Jinchun is just the clothes for the marriage, and the Xue family has a large amount of supply, no matter how low the fiancé's background is, he is also the nephew of Yunyang Hou, and he has also been promoted to a thousand households of the fifth grade, she is simply compared to her in everything, how can she not be angry with her liver and stomach?

That is, thinking that she couldn't fall in front of her mother and sister, Qin Jinyi just held on. When it comes to her life in her in-law's house, she also says everything for the better, and she has to exaggerate a few more points. It's just that she just complained to her mother Xiao Xue about Pei Er's unhappiness in entering the palace, and when she said these big words, she couldn't help but feel a little weak-hearted, which made Qin Jinchun see it. Qin Jinchun didn't say anything, but he didn't hear it, but the Xue family believed it and said happily: "Your good days are still ahead." I just said, this family business couldn't be better, others don't know the goods, so we asked our family to catch it. Fortunately, I was decisive enough at the beginning, otherwise you wouldn't know who you would be marrying!"

The smile on Qin Jinyi's face was reluctant, but she couldn't let others see that she already had some regrets, so she could only smile and nod: "Grandmother is right." Then when I returned to my mother-in-law's house, I was so angry and depressed that I fell on the bed while crying out for pain, and I didn't want to pay attention to anything.

The second and third grandmothers of the Pei family were still waiting for the letter at Grandma Pei's side, and when they heard that Qin Jinyi fell ill when she came back, they were all so anxious. Grandma Pei San was the most anxious, and said with a dry smile: "Why is my nephew and daughter-in-law so sick? Don't be tired, right? Why don't you ask a doctor to come back and take a look at her? ”

Pei Er's grandmother was a good person, and she faintly felt that the news that Qin Jinyi brought back might not be good, so she played a round and said: "Please ask the sister-in-law to call the shots." Let's see my nephew and daughter-in-law tomorrow. Don't worry too much about the third brother and sister, our family hasn't been filial yet, so it's useless to be anxious. ”

It is related to the future of her daughter, how can Grandma Pei San not be in a hurry? But just as Grandma Pei said, the Pei family is still in the filial piety period, and it is impossible for the girls in the family to enter the palace immediately, so why should they wait at least until next year, it is not good to chase Qin Jinyi too tightly now, and in the future, the matter of her daughter entering the palace will have to rely on the help of the Qin family.

So Grandma Pei San reluctantly smiled and left with Grandma Pei Er.

Grandma Pei sent the girl to see Qin Jinyi, and soon the girl reported: "Grandma seems to be angry at some point, and she hasn't eaten well, and now she can't get up from bed, and a few girls are discussing getting her some good porridge and water." The slave maid wanted to go closer to see it, but the grandmother had already fallen asleep, and her maid was afraid of waking people up, so she didn't let the slave and maid into the back room. ”

Grandma Pei pouted and said, "I'm just afraid that I won't let Brother Cheng accompany her back to her parents' house, and I deliberately did it for me, right? Otherwise, she is in her own mother's family, where will anyone be angry with her? If I let her go, I won't believe it, I don't ask, can she really hold back and not say anything? Even if I don't scold her, the old lady and the second and third rooms are not fuel-efficient lamps. It's really a problem with people!" After speaking, he didn't even ask the doctor to invite him, so he left Qin Jinyi aside, and didn't even inform his son who lived in the outer courtyard that his daughter-in-law was sick.

But Pei Yin from the inner courtyard got the letter and ran over to her mother: "What did I say earlier? My brother's daughter-in-law is marrying the wrong one! At the beginning, my mother refused to listen to me, but now I know that I regret it, right? How long has it been? Before even three months have passed, she has revealed her true colors." Looking back now, I'm afraid that her fall was not simple, and she must have deliberately calculated her brother!"

Grandma Pei is not confused: "Although your sister-in-law did not look virtuous in the past, if I only want to marry a virtuous daughter-in-law for your brother, I don't care about anything else, and I won't delay marrying him until now." No matter how bad the Qin family is, she has a good mother's family, who calls her the niece and granddaughter of the queen's mother? Now both the emperor and His Royal Highness the crown prince value the Qin family. Even if your sister-in-law is just a side branch and can't write two Qin characters in one stroke, her family often goes to Chengenhou Mansion and Yongjiahou Mansion, and those who are very close to each other can be stained. With the identity of the son-in-law of the Qin family, your brother can also make outsiders look high. Don't always be angry with your sister-in-law, why bother? I still have two years of filial piety, and when the time comes, I will have to ask your sister-in-law to take you out to socialize, and let the Qin family help match you and find a child from a wealthy family. You still have a place to use your sister-in-law, don't really offend her. ”

Pei Yin sneered: "Mother, don't laugh, she rarely goes out to socialize by herself, what can she do to help me?" Even if she is the daughter of the second room of the Qin family, do you see that after she got married, when did she send things through letters to the people in the Qin family's room and the third room? Even in the second room of the Qin family, it was only ten days and a half months that someone came to greet her and send her some food, but she never sent anyone back to ask her parents and elders to say goodbye. When the Lu family married the prince of Yunyang Hou, he always sent someone to the Qin family every ten years to say hello, but it was still his granddaughter! Qin's own granddaughter was not as good as his granddaughter. What else can I expect from her?"

Pei Yin approached Grandma Pei and said in a low voice: "Mother, I also know all about the things you have asked people to inquire about from outside. The second sister is obviously not the material to enter the palace, what are you still putting your hopes on her? The second and third rooms always say that the Tang family has been taken care of, but can the Tang family really work? It is not that Tang Laoshang and Mrs. Tang agreed to help! What's more, it is difficult for even Mrs. Tang to see the crown princess now, so there is no need to say anything else. Since the crown princess is bent on the daughter of the Chu family, it is obviously more difficult for the second sister to want her blue eyes. Even if she really enters the palace, can the crown princess still be able to raise the daughter of the Chu family and then raise her again? Mother, I think it is better for our big house to make plans in advance. If the second sister can't enter the palace, what should we do? Don't always think about the Qin family, she's just a waste!"

Grandma Pei frowned, and couldn't help but be worried.
