Chapter Seventy-Five: Hints
Qin Jian found a chair next to the desk and sat down, looked up at Zhao Mo who was packing up the pen and paper, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He originally thought that Zhao Mo was Wu Shaoying's cousin, although Wu Shaoying was a prisoner, but it was rumored that he did not have any great family background, but he was a scholar from a small place, and his early life was a little embarrassing, but now he is much better, and he can only be regarded as a little rich. His cousin must also have a similar family background as him. Such a scholar from a small family, Qin Jian has seen a lot in the Yao family on weekdays, and he didn't take it to heart. If it weren't for the purpose of currying favor with the third uncle ancestor Qin Bai, Qin Bai seemed to value Zhao Mo very much, and he planned to use Zhao Mo to shorten the distance between him and the third uncle ancestor, but I was afraid that he would not bother to make friends with the other party now.
But now that he gets along with Zhao Mo, Qin Jian feels that Zhao Mo doesn't seem to be a child from a small family. His gestures, speech and demeanor, as well as the dress etiquette he shows on weekdays, etc., all imply that he must be from a rich family, and he is not an ordinary rich family. Qin Jian faintly felt that the children of the princes and nobles he knew on weekdays might not have the demeanor of Zhao Mo. Is this really a child that can be raised by an ordinary little rich family?
Qin Jian was suspicious in his heart, and forgot what he should say for a while.
Zhao Mo put aside the half-written paper, looked up at Qin Jian, walked to the table with a smile, and reached out to hold the handle of the teapot: "Brother Qin, forgive me." I don't have a waiting servant in this house, and this tea is still delivered after dinner, so I'm afraid it's already a little cold. If there is a faux pas, please don't blame it. ”
Mingfeng behind Qin Jian hurriedly reached out and took the teapot: "Let the little one come." "Try the body of the teapot, the tea in it is no longer hot, but it is still warm, and it can be eaten. Seeing that the upside-down teacup on the table was still clean, he hurriedly turned over a cup and poured a cup of tea for Qin Jian. This is still in the Hou Mansion, and the tea utensils prepared are reliable, but there is nothing taboo.
Qin Jian took the tea and took a sip, and said to Zhao Mo with a smile: "Brother Zhao Xian is polite." We are not outsiders, so we don't have to pay attention to these customs. ”
Zhao Mo smiled and sat down on the chair opposite him. Mingfeng also poured him a cup of tea.
Zhao Mo smiled: "Brother Qin, this little guy is very clever. I used to have a few little guys, but none of them had the same eyes as you. ”
Qin Jian's heart moved: "Since there are people waiting around Brother Zhao Xian, why don't they follow you to our house?"
Zhao Mo said lightly: "Where they are now, I don't know, how can I bring them?" Even myself, if it weren't for my uncle and grandfather's pity, I wouldn't know where they would go." ”
What does this mean? Qin Jian was curious in her heart, and was about to ask carefully, but Zhao Mo changed the topic: "Brother Qin is here to look for his uncle and grandfather today, right? Why did you come to my house?"
Qin Jian heard Zhao Mo keep calling "Uncle and Grandpa", and couldn't help muttering in his heart, is this title a little weird? The only people who can call the third uncle ancestor Qin Bai like this are the descendants of his sisters. But Qin Bai only has one sister, and that is the late Empress Qin. In addition, there are a few cousins and clan sisters, but they basically live in their hometown in Jiangnan. Since this Zhao Mo is the cousin of the third uncle ancestor Qin Bai's student, how can he have a relationship with these aunts and wives again? He only heard that Wu Shaoying is the cousin of the fourth uncle Qin Ping's wife, how is this relationship calculated?
But...... Zhao Mo's surname is Zhao, and Zhao is the surname of the country, if he is from the side of Empress Qin, he only calls Qin Bai an uncle and grandfather, doesn't that mean that he is from the clan? Then his so-called cousin relationship with Wu Shaoying may be bluffing, right?
Qin Jian was shocked for a while, and waited until Zhao Mo asked for the second time before replying: "I just went to see the third uncle, and when I saw him enter the palace in the morning and came back, he seemed to be a little tired, so I was embarrassed to disturb him more." The days are long, if there is anything I don't understand in my homework, I will ask the third uncle again. "He did prepare a few questions today, but he wasn't in a hurry at all, it was just an excuse to enter the Seifukan.
Zhao Mo saw that Qin Jian was already suspicious of his identity at this time, and he didn't plan to say too much, so he smiled and said, "Uncle and grandpa have always been in good health on weekdays, but he must be tired today." No way, since yesterday, this yard has been very lively, uncles, grandparents, and grandparents have been so noisy that they can't rest well, and even Brother Zi'er hasn't slept well. After my uncle and grandfather entered the palace, it was inevitable that they would be tired, so it would be good to rest for two days. ”
Qin Jian asked: "Yesterday, many people came to disturb the third uncle and ancestor, and it disturbed the peace of the third uncle and ancestor, I must tell my father and mother when I go back, and pass the order down, so that those idle people and others will come and make noise." ”
Zhao Mo smiled: "Uncle, grandpa, and grandma were happy yesterday, but they didn't feel anything. Most of the people who came were old acquaintances from the past, and it was also a good thing to meet and reminisce about old friendships. But there were a lot of people coming. Later, when the uncle and grandfather were tired, Uncle Tiger called someone to kowtow in the yard to congratulate him on the completion of the matter, and left his name. But in this way, some people must feel neglected, although they dare not raise their voices, they can't help but complain. Uncle Hu seems to be quite angry, but he is just hindering those few people who are also considered to have heads and faces in the house, so he can't say anything. ”
Qin Jian hurriedly said: "There is such a thing? I don't know who has no rules like this? Brother Xian just tell me, I will teach them a lesson for the third uncle!"
Zhao Mo said: "Where do I know who it is?" I looked at it from a distance, and I couldn't see which one it was. Later, I asked Uncle Hu, but he didn't say. However, a little guy beside Brother Qin was also there yesterday, so he must have recognized it. Brother Qin just went back and asked him. He sighed, "I didn't mean to complain, I just fought for my uncle and grandfather." ”
"Brother Zhao Xian, don't think about it too much, I still want to thank you for telling me about this, otherwise I don't know that the people in the family have even offended the third uncle. Qin Jian said, "But I don't know which of my little servants came yesterday?" The people around me are waiting in the study on weekdays, but I didn't expect to come over. ”
Zhao Mo thought for a while: "I heard people say that he seems to be called Mo or something." Originally, I didn't recognize him, but he dangled at the door of the Qingfeng Pavilion every day, probing his brain, as if he was very curious about things in the yard. The mother-in-law who guarded the door asked him what was the matter, but he did not answer, turned around and ran away. I thought it was strange, so I remembered him. I think he probably thought that the people brought back by his uncle and grandfather were very novel, and they were not quite the same as the people he had seen on weekdays, so he came to see the excitement, right?"
Qin Jian's face darkened a little: "It must be ink light." This kid is so rude, I have to scold him!"
While speaking, Qin Hanzhen went back to Qingfeng Pavilion, and wanted to go directly to the main house to find her grandfather and grandmother, but she saw that there was a guest in the east wing, and it turned out to be Qin Jian! She was startled, and hurriedly walked into the east wing, squeezing out a smile: "Why didn't Brother Lobby go to find his grandfather, but talk to Cousin Zhao here?" She gave Zhao Mo a look, Zhao Mo smiled and shook his head secretly, Qin Hanzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Jian stood up: "I've already seen the third uncle and ancestor, the third uncle is a little tired, I don't want to disturb it, so I retreated and looked for Brother Zhao Xian to talk." He hesitated, "It's not too early, I should go back too." And so he took his leave. ”
Zhao Mo politely sent him out of the courtyard gate, and when he turned back, Qin Hanzhen asked, "What is he doing here?"
"Just a few gossip. Zhao Mo paused, "I hinted at him a few words, he must have doubts about my identity now." ”
Qin Hanzhen was a little worried: "Won't you be too risky? Even if my grandfather is now the Hou Ye, it has some deterrent effect on the Wang family, and your situation is not 100% safe." What if the Wang family took a risk, and would rather risk offending my grandfather than get rid of you? Earlier, you were hiding your identity in front of the people in the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion, but as soon as my grandfather's decree came to you, you seemed to relax and took the initiative to reveal your identity in front of the Wang family. Aren't you afraid of danger?"
Zhao Mo said with a smile: "My cousin said one thing wrong, I revealed my identity in front of the Qin family, not the Wang family." The Wang family and the Qin family are two different things. ”
Qin Hanzhen disagreed: "What's the difference? Brother Lobby's mother is the granddaughter of the Wang family, and she has a close relationship with the Wang family." My eldest uncle and grandfather did not tie up with the Wang family on weekdays. ”
Zhao Mo said: "If Qin's second grandmother's maiden name is Wang, maybe I will be a little more jealous, but her surname is Yao, and she is the granddaughter of the Wang family, so she will be separated by a layer." Her husband and son are separated by another layer, and the relationship with the Wang family is even farther away. Even if Cheng Enhou has the heart to tie up with the Wang family, now that he is in this mansion, he can't talk much, right? As for Mrs. Chengenhou, Second Master Qin and Third Master Qin, they naturally thought about the Qin family first, and would not listen to the words of the Wang family everywhere. They are not fools, and the saints of the Wang family are also outsiders. Now that there is such a holy family as Uncle and Grandpa, the self-family members of the family are not stammering, but they go to please outsiders, isn't it thankless? These three are now the people who can call the shots in the Chengenhou Mansion, and they have made up their minds, and Second Grandma Qin will not go against her in-laws for a trivial matter. That way, they know who I am, and they will naturally decide what to do with me. In the future, I will be able to act in this mansion, and I will be much more comfortable, and I will no longer have to hide from people everywhere because I am afraid of the royal family. ”
It sounds like some truth. If Zhao Mo can live openly in the Chengenhou Mansion, it is naturally better than hiding like before. If his identity can be made public, the people in the long and second rooms will not dare to despise him. And once the Qin family determines their attitude towards him, if the Wang family wants to hurt him secretly, it will be right with the Qin family. At that time, there is no need for Qin Bai to come forward, and the rest of the Qin family can directly make trouble with the Wang family.
Qin Han really thought about it and said to Zhao Mo: "Your idea is good. However, I think that you will be safe only when the emperor's investigation comes out and there is a reaction. Now that you've hinted at your identity, you don't have to be too public, right? Although most of the owners in this mansion have brains, there are still one or two fools. We need to be on guard. ”
Zhao Mo nodded: "My cousin is right, I will be careful." (To be continued.) )
