Chapter 31: Encounter

When he got up the next morning, Qin Hanzhen was still a little confused, looking around, and some didn't realize where he was. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After a pause, she remembered that yesterday evening, she and her grandfather and grandmother moved to the east courtyard of the ancestral house. They don't have a large population, so they didn't bother to clean all the courtyards in the east courtyard, but they cleaned the second main courtyard that looked the best maintained and the most complete furniture, and the grandfather and grandmother lived in the main room, she lived in the west wing, and the east wing was used as a temporary small study and tea room. She slept in this west wing last night.

This west wing room is actually very large, a bright and two dark a total of three rooms, a small hall in the middle, a bedroom and a study room on the left and right, carved beams and painted buildings, and the furniture is also very exquisite. This is supposed to be a room where the ladies lived, and strangely enough, it seemed to be three points more elaborate than the east wing room opposite. Qin Hanzhen suspected in his heart that Qin Jinyi probably hadn't even come to Jiangning's hometown, and this room was the residence of Qin Youzhen, the aunt Qin Youzhen who had never met in the second room.

Although Qin Youzhen is not valued by her mother and brother-in-law, she is very dignified in the long room, and when she was a child, she was carried into the palace by Aunt Fu and her biological mother Aunt Zhang to see the Queen Mother and the Queen. Mrs. Chengenhou Xu also treated her very well. Since this ancestral mansion was rebuilt under the auspices of Qin Song, the Marquis of Cheng'en, it is not strange that the Xu family is in charge and puts more thought into Qin Youzhen's house. The Xue family and Qin Bofu would probably be very depressed about this, right? But they couldn't help Qin Youzhen. Qin Youzhen even married the master of the long house. At most, the two of them took on the name of a mother-in-law's eldest brother, and they didn't even dare to be mean to her, because the nobles in the palace were all looking at it.

Among the descendants of the Chengenhou Mansion, it is said that there is also a saying that Qin Song, the Marquis of Chengen, thinks that Qin Bofu is the first child of the Xue family to be born outside, not the flesh and blood of the Qin family, but Qin Youzhen was born in the ancestral house of the sixth house, even if it is a concubine, it is also the real flesh and blood of Qin Zhen. Therefore, Qin Song was willing to give this niece a little more decency, but he couldn't wait to tear off Qin Bofu's face and step on the ground.

But then again, the people who looked at Qin Youzhen's birth were Old Lady Ye, Old Aunt Fu and Aunt Zhang, all of whom Qin Song didn't like. How much kindness can he have for this niece? It's just that he is using her to suppress Qin Bofu.

Qin Hanzhen yawned and turned over to get up. The bad things in the second room have nothing to do with her. Qin Youzhen is several years older than her cheap son Qin Ping, and she has been married for many years, as long as she lives in this house, why bother with other people's affairs?

Qingxing and the girls had already heard the movement, and hurriedly went into the back room to wait for Qin Hanzhen to get up, and someone went to fetch hot water to serve her to wash and comb her hair. By the time she got dressed up and walked out of the west wing with a small hand stove, the sleepiness had disappeared without a trace, and the whole person became energetic.

Niu sat in the main room, watching Mama Hu and them set up breakfast. When he saw his granddaughter passing, he smiled and beckoned: "You got up late too, didn't you? I moved the house last night, and I didn't sleep until midnight, I was really tired." We don't have anything to do today, so you might as well get some more sleep. ā€

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "Aren't you going to the hospital to see your grandmother today? I've slept enough for four hours and don't feel sleepy. If you can come back at noon, then make up for sleep after lunch. ā€

She looked around the house with some confusion: "Why don't you see grandfather?"

Niu said: "Your grandfather took Brother Jian early in the morning and called Qin Keyong from the sect room to the graveyard. He wants to see how the tomb of your great-grandfather and great-grandmother is doing, and if there is anything bad, he will repair it first. However, that Qin Keyong said that the sect sent people to clear the weeds on the grave of the second elder every year, and the sacrifice at four o'clock was never missed, and there would be no mistakes. Your grandfather is not at ease, so he still has to see it with his own eyes. ā€

Qin Hanzhen thought so: "It's this reason." Who knows if the sect is unreliable?" "Although the Feng family seems to be a good person, and her husband Qin Keliang has a good reputation in the clan, but these two people are already a little marginalized after all, and now the sect is Qin Keyong and Xiao Huang's husband and wife in charge, and it is better for others to pay more attention."

Mama Hu smiled beside her: "The second master of the sect is down, but Brother Jian is pitiful. Last night, when we moved the house, he didn't have to move, but he had to circle around the lord and wife, and repeatedly advised you not to move. As a result, we slept late, and he didn't have a good night's sleep, so he had to get up early in the morning and go out with the master. I saw that he was almost asleep standing in the front yard, and he was pitiful. ā€

Niu said with a smile: "That kid is honest and filial, although he is young, he always wants to do things for the master, and it is not in vain that I and the master love him." ā€

While speaking, Zhao Mo came over, dressed in new clothes, and greeted the Niu family in good spirits, and said hello to Qin Hanzhen.

Niu Shi smiled and asked: "Did you sleep well yesterday? You and Brother Jian both helped work until the third watch in the middle of the night, Brother Jian went out early in the morning, you can always sleep more, right? Don't be wronged yourself, at your age, it is the time to grow your body, you must eat and sleep more, so that your body can be healthy." ā€

Zhao Mo touched his nose a little embarrassedly: "I slept well, but I slept more peacefully than when I was on the boat before." It's probably because I'm down-to-earth and I don't have to worry about it. ā€

Qin Hanzhen said: "Cousin has worked hard all the way, so let's rest for a few days." The weather is getting colder and colder now, and this Jiangnan is not much warmer than the capital, you remember to wear more clothes and don't catch a cold. ā€

Zhao Mo responded with a smile.

Bai Qiao ran in from outside: "Master and Brother Jian are back!" Everyone in the room was happy.

Qin Bai and Qin Jian walked in from outside the courtyard, but Qin Keyong didn't follow. Qin Hanzhen hurriedly greeted him and stuffed the small hand stove in his hand into his grandfather's hand. Qin Bai smiled and touched her little head, raised his feet and walked into the house, and said to Niu, "What are you waiting for me to do?" Mama Tiger didn't wait for instructions, so she sent hot millet porridge and chopsticks for everyone.

The five of them sat around the table, and Niu Shi gave her husband a vegetarian bun before asking him, "What's going on at the cemetery?

Qin Bai nodded: "The grave is fine." That kid isn't lazy. I see that the tombs of all the ancestors in the cemetery are well maintained, which shows that he is still doing practical things. ā€

Qin Jian drank a large bowl of Jiang rice porridge, and finally felt warmer on his body, so he muttered: "If Uncle Keyong doesn't even do this superficial effort, then it is impossible to take the responsibility of being in charge." I just don't understand, looking at what he says and acts, he can be regarded as an understanding person, why did he make a mistake before? Could it be that he was coaxed by Aunt Keyong and made a mistake?"

Zhao Mo smiled: "You know again?"

Qin Jian said: "Why don't I know? There were so many clansmen who came yesterday, and I don't know how much gossip was said. As the third sister said, gossip and rumors. I'm also a clear figure about the affairs of the clan now. ā€

Zhao Mo listened to it funny, shook his head and said nothing. Qin Jian was a little unconvinced: "Could it be that you don't believe it?"

Qin Bai said: "Okay, what's so aggressive about such a thing?"

Qin Jian smiled embarrassedly, shut up and continued to drink porridge. In fact, he also understood what Qin Bai meant, after all, this was all Qin family affairs, what did he do in front of Zhao Mo?

Zhao Mo didn't know if he understood what they meant, but everything was as usual on his face. He asked Qin Bai: "Uncle and grandpa, are you going to send your uncle and grandmother to the hospital to see a doctor in a while?"

Qin Jian hurriedly said, "I'll go too!" He couldn't stand to stay in the ancestral house anymore to see the clansmen. Since the time of the two old ladies of the Huang family and the Ye family, they have left the rules, no matter how prominent the six rooms are, the children and grandchildren have to meet the elders in the clan, and they must also meet according to the ceremony. He met several grandfathers yesterday, and before they could recognize them all, he kowtowed his head first. Qin Bai is the son of the Ye family, so naturally he will not violate the teachings of his deceased mother, he also did this when he was young, and he didn't feel that Qin Jian was losing face by giving a gift to his elders. Therefore, Qin Jian secretly complained in his heart, at the end of the day yesterday, his knees were all blue, and his back hurt, but he didn't want to experience it again.

Qin Bai glanced at Qin Jian lightly: "Brother Jian can't go." There will certainly be people from the clan visiting today, and perhaps there will be in-laws or cousins. If I go out with your grandmother, and if you leave again, won't it be a closed door? You stay to receive the visitors, and I accompany your grandmother out. Don't worry, we'll be back in town in half a day at most. The elders of the clan are almost all here yesterday, and the people who come today don't need you to kowtow one by one, you don't have to worry. ā€

He said to Zhao Mo again: "Guanglu should be a companion with him." If there are seeds of reading among those who come today, you should also talk to them more and try their knowledge. If there is a good one, I will also help him, which can be regarded as adding a talent to the family. ā€

Zhao Mo was busy responding. Qin Jian saw that he had Zhao Mo as his companion, and heard that he didn't have to kowtow today, so he reluctantly agreed.

The five of them rested in the room for a while, digesting and digesting. Zhou Xiangnian came in and reported that the carriage had been set. Qin Hanzhen went out with his grandfather and grandmother and took a car to the town.

When they left Zhuangzi, they met clansmen along the way. Yesterday, Qin Hanzhen accompanied the Niu family to meet a circle of female dependents, so many people still remember. There are almost no people with foreign surnames in Qinzhuang, and every household is surnamed Qin, so there is nothing to avoid. Qin Hanzhen lifted the curtains of the car and greeted people all the way. All the female relatives of the clan laughed and discussed, saying that Yongjiahou's granddaughter had a sweet and well-behaved mouth, which was really flattering.

Mama Tiger heard it, smiled and whispered this to Niu. Niu said proudly: "Of course, my granddaughter is sensible and well-behaved, and she is likable." It can be seen that the clansmen are also bright-eyed and know what is wrong. ā€

Qin Hanzhen smiled and nestled into her arms: "The people in the clan call their grandfathers and grandmothers, some are called uncles and aunts, and some are called Mrs. Hou, it's really confusing." ā€

Niu said: "The master hasn't come back for thirty years, and others may not really figure out what to call him, so it's easy to call Mrs. Hou, but it seems estranged." But others can call it whatever they like, and we know it's just calling us. ā€

The carriage traveled for less than half an hour before it reached the town. The clinic was at the end of the street in town. Qin Bai rode over familiarly, got off the ground at the entrance of the medical hall, turned around and picked up his wife to get out of the car, supported his wife with one hand, and led Qin Hanzhen with the other, and was about to go to the medical hall.

A young man in his thirties walked out of the infirmary with a few servants. The two sides looked at each other, and the young man's face suddenly showed a look of surprise: "Why are you here?" Suddenly seeing the Niu family and Qin Hanzhen beside Qin Bai, he paused, "This is your wife and granddaughter?"

Qin Hanzhen looked at this young man curiously, always feeling a little kind, but he remembered that he had never seen each other. Who is this? Is it someone Qin Bai knows?
