Chapter 266: Feng'er
Qingxing didn't leave with her uncle on the same day, and stayed by Qin Hanzhen's side for a few more days, handing over all the work that should be handed over, and then leaving with confidence.
Before leaving, she led an eleven or twelve-year-old girl to Qin Hanzhen and said, "Girl, this is Feng'er." I've been teaching her for almost a year. She can learn the rules well, she can recognize a few words, and she can do simple calculations. It's not clever, but it's all honest and loyal, and there's a stupid strength. The girl took her with her after that, and told her to do any rough work. If she makes a mistake in the future, you can teach what you can, and punish her severely if she can't, and you don't have to look at me. ”
Qin Hanzhen was a little surprised, and took a closer look at the little girl named Feng'er. She was no stranger to this little girl. Since Da Qingxing decided to stay in Jiangnan, she began to consciously teach other little girls, and selected some new little girls to cultivate. This Feng'er was not sent by someone below, nor was it found by He Xin, but Li Zi and Qingxing brought it back when they went home to save their relatives one time, and it is said that Qingxing bought it outside. Qingxing took her with her to teach, and was a little closer to her than other little girls, and others didn't take it to heart, and didn't think that Feng'er would occupy a place in Qin Hanzhen's Academy.
Without him, the status of this kind of subordinate is slightly lower than that of others. Since Qingxing's uncle is the head of Jiangnan industry in Yongjiahou Mansion, she has long decided that she will not follow Qin Hanzhen back to Beijing, and everyone knows that she will marry someone in Jiangnan sooner or later, but this Feng'er was bought by her to prepare to be a dowry girl in the future, but she is temporarily taking it with her side to recuperate. Qin Hanzhen also thought so, how did he know that this Feng'er was actually prepared for himself?
She hurriedly asked Qingxing: "What do you say? Isn't Feng'er the person you kept for your own use? Why did you give it to me?"
Qingxing smiled and said: "I want to use a girl myself, who can't do it? Where can I use the rules and etiquette in detail? But here is the girl, no one who can do things can not do it." I have been looking at this Feng'er coldly since I bought it, thinking that she can still be called. The girl uses it, and if she doesn't use it well, she can be sent away. After that, he turned his head to look at Feng'er, "Do you remember what I taught you?" In the future, the girl will be your only master, no matter what the girl tells you to do, you must do your best. If anyone deceives her, you must tell her. Someone has wronged the girl, you have to protect the girl, even if you lose your life, you can't back down, you know?!"
Feng'er fell to the ground with a thud and kowtowed to Qin Hanzhen: "Don't worry, girl, sister, Feng'er will definitely swear to protect the girl!"
Qin Hanzhen was startled, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, so she hurriedly helped Feng'er and pulled her up: "Okay, you don't have to kneel and kowtow so much." You can stay in the future. You've been doing menial work with me for months, and you know that I'm the best person to get along with. As long as you don't make big mistakes, everything is easy to say. You're not new anymore, and I don't have to tell you anything. After Qingxing leaves, Baiqiao will temporarily take her place and be a big girl for me. Lotus Fruit and Lotus Stamen are two to make up, and you can temporarily do the errand of Lotus Stamen. If you don't understand anything, just ask Lianrui. If she bullies you, come and tell me. ”
Feng'er was stunned and said, "Sister Lianrui won't bully me." I'm the one who stayed with the girl's mouth. ”
Qin Hanzhen laughed dumbly when he heard this. Lian Rui, a girl, is a very clever one among her maids, with a sweet mouth, eyes, and is very good at getting along with people, and her popularity is also good. Such a person used to know that Feng'er was taught by Qingxing by her side, so she naturally would only make friends and would not be embarrassed. Now that Feng'er was given to Qin Hanzhen by Qingxing, Lian Rui will not be a villain. Feng'er, this girl looked stunned, but she could see people's hearts very clearly.
Qin Hanzhen smiled and called Lian Rui over, and gave a few instructions to let her take Feng'er down. Feng'er is a newcomer, and she has officially set the example of a third-class girl, even if she only lives in the six-room ancestral house for a few days, this treatment must be in accordance with the rules. Although Lian Rui was surprised in her heart, she did not show any strangeness on her face, but happily and affectionately took Feng'er out.
Qingxing told Qin Hanzhen Feng'er's life experience: "She is also a poor person. Her family was not a family without roots, and she cultivated and read it from generation to generation, and in her father's generation, only her father was left as a lone seedling, and she had read for a few years, and made an account room for people, and the family was also regarded as having a house and land, and she did not have to worry about food and clothing. A few years ago, her biological mother died in childbirth, leaving behind a younger brother, and her father was afraid that no one would take care of his children, so he married another one under the guidance of the villagers. Who knew that this stepmother was not virtuous, and secretly took all the money in her family back to her parents' house, and took care of her brother carelessly, and a cold wind buried her brother's life. Her father was so angry that he fell ill, but her stepmother took her and ran back to her parents' house, so that her father couldn't even get the money for the medicine, and he died of illness. ”
Qin Han was really surprised to hear it, this is not ...... Is the family ruined? Feng'er has such a background, it's really pitiful......
Qingxing continued: "Feng'er was still young at that time, and it was still the kindness of her father's boss before his death, and he helped with the aftermath. Before the matter was done, her stepmother ran back to grab the house and sold her to a passing troupe. She was trapped in that opera troupe, calling the heavens and the earth unspiritual, and she suffered for two years, and she didn't know how many places she had to run over before she met me and my brother. My brother and I felt that she and we were in the same situation, so we bought her from the troupe. It's a pity that she is already a homeless person, and she only remembers her hatred for her stepmother in her heart. ”
She took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to Qin Hanzhen: "This is what I asked from Feng'er's mouth, where her hometown is, and her stepmother's maiden family name and address." I asked the fourth uncle to help me inquire, and there is indeed such a family. Her stepmother sold her family house and moved back to her parents' house, relying on the money brought from her family, the family ate and drank spicy food, and I heard that someone told her stepmother about a family affair, and it seemed that she was still a member of the yamen. Our family is a small person, and we know where Feng'er's enemies are, but we can't help much. In fact, as long as you treat Feng'er better, she can also be grateful to you for a lifetime. ”
Qin Hanzhen took the paper, looked at it a few times, and saw that it was in Nanhai County, and his heart was really coincidental. This is not difficult to do, isn't his father Qin Ping an official in Guangzhou? That Feng'er's stepmother remarried a little scribe in the county government, and she has not yet passed the door. He only needed to send a letter to his father Qin Ping, and the matter was resolved. Feng'er's stepmother is also ruthless, but if she marries a widower, she will ruin people's families, take away other people's property, and sell other people's flesh and blood. This kind of woman should not end well.
Qin Hanzhen put the paper away: "Okay, I know about this, I will watch it." You can rest assured. She paused, "Don't always worry about the old people and the old things. Now that the enemies are all dead, you and Li Zi have a new life, and your fourth uncle has found a good family for you. Li Zi personally inquired, and people have met him in person, and they all said that he was the most reliable candidate. You can live a good life in the future. If you have the opportunity to come to the capital, remember to go to the Yongjiahou Mansion to see me. If you encounter difficulties in the future, just come to me and don't have any worries. I'm also your mother's family, what are you polite to me?"
Qingxing pursed her lips and smiled, lowered her head and whispered, "Yes." Don't worry, girl, I know it all. ”
She also told Qin Hanzhen: "Feng'er was born with greater strength than others, and when she was a child, she didn't look like she had grown up, she was not beautiful, and she learned swords and horses in the drama troupe, but she had a bad voice, so she was beaten a lot." My brother and I wanted to buy her, and the class owner readily agreed. I saw that although she was a little stunned, she was quite honest and knew the severity. The most important thing is that she has some skills, and she can protect the girl in case of trouble. She is also watery and recognizes several common herbs. Change her into men's clothes and ask her to run errands in front of people, and others will treat her as a little girl. If the girl wants to inquire about anything in the future, or has something she wants to buy privately, but it is inconvenient to tell my brother, just let Feng'er go. Although she is honest, her mouth is tight, and she will not talk nonsense with others. ”
Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "This Feng'er has also lit up a lot of skills, she can recognize words, she can settle accounts, she has good skills, she has great strength, she has water penetration, she knows herbal medicine, and she can dress up as a man? That's exactly what I need to be around. Feng'er is very good, as long as she works hard for me, I will never treat her badly. ”
Qingxing's expression softened: "I just ask her to help the girl, and I am satisfied." ”
Qingxing said goodbye to Qin Hanzhen and the other sisters, took a large cart of dowry, and followed He Xin out of the ancestral house of the sixth room. Now, she is about to start a new life, although she is apprehensive, but looking back at Qin Hanzhen standing in front of the door to say goodbye to her, she has infinite confidence. No matter whether the road ahead is a full moon or a wind sword and frost sword, she always has a way out.
She survived such a difficult day in the past, what else is there to be afraid of?
Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but sigh as he watched Qingxing's car disappear at the end of the road. After being together day and night for so many years, she was suddenly separated, and she was really a little unaccustomed to it.
Turning around, she looked at Li Zi, who had been standing by the door, and smiled: "When is Qingxing's wedding date set? I even have a ready-made reason, my cousin is short of manpower, you are originally a person under his hands, why don't you help him for a few months in the past? I don't have anything to do now anyway, there are Baiqiao and Feng'er in the inner house, and when there is something to do outside, you can also ask Cousin Zhao to borrow Ah Shou. ”
Li Zi grinned: "Girl, don't just think about lending people out generously, can Wu Ye rest assured of you? If you know that you have lent me out, but you have something to borrow from Zhao Xiaogongzi, I am afraid that I will be angry with me." I don't carry this black cauldron. The girl can rest assured, Qingxing has a fourth uncle there, and a grandfather and grandmother. The fourth uncle is now the head of the Hou Mansion, who dares to underestimate his niece? The more I use it in front of the girl, the more I can support Qingxing. Girl, don't worry about our brothers and sisters!"
