Qin Hanzhen just watched his grandmother Niu's attention completely diverted, and admired his cousin Wu Shaoying in his heart.

It's not that he can't deal with his wife, it's just that he doesn't want to use any means. After all, he also knew in his heart that the Niu family cared about him, so he urged the marriage so tightly. As long as he is willing, he can also turn Niu's attention away without coaxing.

Of course, in this way, Qin An and his family may be a little embarrassed.

Brother Qian'er is also Qin An's son, but he was sent to his hometown to raise him for so many years, and Qin An didn't say a word about going to school, and asked Wu Shaoying, an in-law who couldn't beat the eight poles, to speak. However, Wu Shaoying is the maiden cousin of her sister-in-law Guan Rongniang, and Guan Rongniang was also killed by Qin An's ex-wife and Brother Qian's biological mother. This is a little embarrassing, it seems that Qin An is too cold to this son.

Now that he has married someone else, and he has just given birth to a son, it is understandable that he is indifferent to the son in front of him, but he always has to do superficial work.

Qin An happened to go home today to visit his parents, wife and children, and he was embarrassed to get the news, but he really couldn't say a word. It's about He's family, he has no confidence at home. Facing his brother and niece, he felt empty. The matter of the eldest son, anyway, his parents take care of him, he has food and clothing all year round, someone waits for him, and he can study, he feels that he has nothing to say, everything just needs to depend on the arrangement of his parents. He didn't dare to take his son home on his own initiative. In the past, he was in Datong, and it was possible to mention it and take the eldest son back to his side, but considering that the He family had a bad reputation in Datong and for the sake of the eldest son, he didn't open this mouth. Now that he has returned to the capital and is living at home again, it is even more difficult for him to open this mouth. What's more, now that his wife has also added a son to him, and he also has a daughter Qin Hanzhu by his side, he feels that his wife is already very worthy of himself, and there is no need to add another "concubine" to her.

In fact, Xiao Feng was also in a dilemma. Of course, she doesn't care about a child. Whenever she wrote letters to her cousin Feng in Jiangning, she often asked the other party to help take care of Brother Qian. This child has even changed her background, changed her name and age, and sent her back to the clan to be raised, which will not hinder her and her biological son at all, so why should she be a villain in vain? If she can raise Qin Hanzhu by her side and raise her well, she will not be unable to get along with Qin Hanzhu's fellow brother. As long as she does everything she needs to do, her in-laws will think that she is virtuous, and they will think highly of her, and they will benefit her younger brother. Feng Yuting was able to successfully pass the examination, and now she can go to the Marquis Mansion in the capital to study, isn't it all up to her father-in-law to raise her? Xiao Feng is not stupid, she is happy to let her in-laws know that she is as good to Brother Qian and Qin Hanzhu.

It's just that Brother Qian'er's background is a little sensitive, even if Xiao Feng doesn't know the inside story, he also understands that ordinary people in Yongjiahou's Mansion will not mention this child, and her husband Qin An is especially taboo to advance his wife and eldest son in front of Qin Hanzhen, and even concealed his daughter's life experience. In that case, why should she bother? Don't get a reputation for being virtuous, but let the eldest uncle and niece hold a grudge.

Qin An and Xiao Feng were embarrassed and didn't speak, but Niu was still thinking about their eldest grandson. She said worriedly in front of Qin Bai: "In the past, there was no one in our family who took the imperial examination in Jiangnan, so I didn't know the twists and turns here, if it wasn't for Shaoying's reminder, I wouldn't have known that the scholars in Jiangnan were more difficult to take the imperial examination." Doesn't Hou Ye remember this? Otherwise, why didn't he mention it? What can I do about this? Brother Qian'er is already more difficult than others to establish himself in the world, and if the exam is more difficult and he fails to pass the exam, what will he do in the future? Why don't you take the child back? I think Brother An's daughter-in-law is very virtuous, and it is good for the six girls, and I am also relieved to hand Brother Qian into her hands. It's not that I can't trust the people in the clan, but no matter how good the people in the clan are, they can't compare to my own relatives!"

Qin Bai sighed and said, "I already knew this in my heart. There are many talented people in Jiangnan, and the imperial examination is more difficult than elsewhere, but I don't ask Brother Qian to pass the examination and then return to Beijing. He only needs to be able to pass the entrance examination, at his age, he is already very promising, and when he returns to the capital, others can also look up to him and know that he has a future, and he will not look down on him because he is now a concubine. Even if there is a place in the south of the Yangtze River, even the children's examination is more difficult than other places, but Brother Qian'er is my grandson, if he can't even pass the children's examination, then what books will he study in this life, and what kind of imperial examinations will he take? If he fails the Tongsheng examination in Jiangnan, will he definitely be able to pass the examination if he goes to the capital? If he fails the examination, he will try again, as long as he has talent, there will always be a day when he passes the examination. If you really fail the test, it can only be said that the child's talent is limited. Rather than let him go to the capital, a place full of powerful people, to be angry, it is better to ask him to stay in his hometown in Jiangning for the rest of his life and be a squire. Anyway, with the support of the Hou Mansion and the care of the clansmen, no one will wronged him, so safe and decent, indifferent to his life, it may not be a good thing. ”

Niu's eyes turned red when he heard this: "It turns out that Master Hou is so thoughtful, but I was careless, and I didn't expect this." ”

Qin Bai smiled and patted the back of his wife's hand: "You are not a scholar, how do you know what is going on here?" Don't worry, Shaoying has been in Jinling for so long, he said that Brother Qian'er has a good homework, and he will be able to try to end up in two years, it can't be empty and white-toothed, then it must be Brother Qian'er who has this strength, so he will boast like this." Then you just have to wait for the good news from Brother Qian. How old is he now? If he fails the exam in a year, he can just try again, and even if he is seventeen or eighteen years old, he can't afford it? If you really miss him, let's go back to live in the clan for a few months, and it's the same. Hanzhen is going to get married next year, and his grandson is still young, so it's far from the time when we need to worry about it. We have leisure in the future, and we still walk out every year as we did in previous years, while our bodies are still quite strong. Now there are ships and caravans under the name of Guanglu, and there are many ships going to and from the south of the capital every year, so what can we not do if we are touched by the light of our grandson-in-law?"

Niu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "It's nothing, but how can my grandson have to be seventeen or eighteen years old before he can pass the examination for a child? Brother Jian is now a lifter! Brother Qian has been smart since he was a child, and he will be a talent at that time!" The scholars that Niu usually contacts are either relatives and friends or Qin Bai's protégés, and they are basically children with outstanding academics, so she has always felt that the imperial examination is quite easy, and she does not feel how difficult Qin Qian's future is.

She also said: "No matter whether you can pass the exam or not, you can't really let Brother Qian delay until then to return to Beijing." At the age of seventeen or eighteen, he should have married a daughter-in-law a long time ago, but could it be true that he could let the child stay in Jiangnan all the time?

Qin Bai smiled and said: "What kind of good family do you want to tell him? Do you still have to go to the Gonghou family? Isn't his old son the same daughter-in-law as he said in Jiangning? There are many solid families around Jinling, so let the clan help pay attention to it when the time comes, choose a girl with a clean and upright style, and live a good life with Brother Qian, which is better than any family." Otherwise, the child's background will not stand up to investigation, and he really told him about the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, and in the future, he will know his life experience, so how can he raise his head in front of his daughter-in-law?"

Niu hesitated for a moment before nodding: "That's right, Master Hou is right, I'm confused." He sighed as he spoke, "I just think...... This child is so pitiful! It's all his biological mother, she doesn't do good things, she dies early, but she is clean, and she has affected her children and grandchildren!"

Qin Bai said: "Everyone is dead, what are you scolding her for? In the genealogy, Brother Qian'er's biological mother is not surnamed He, why do you keep mentioning her name?"

Niu Shi hurriedly said: "Yes, we shouldn't mention that slut, it's all good to be like her! What does my brother Qian and the six girls have to do with her? She is a **, but the mother of two children is a good woman who does her duty." As he spoke, he scolded Qin An, "It's all because this evil obstacle doesn't have long eyes, and he didn't succeed in doing things." In the past, he didn't marry a good daughter-in-law, but now that he has a good daughter-in-law, he is still so confused! If he hadn't burned high incense in his previous life, how could he have the blessings to have parents like us, a daughter-in-law like Brother Zhuang and his mother, and good children like Brother Qian and the six girls? Can he still become an official and enjoy all the blessings of a rich life? He would have been fooled to death a long time ago!"

After scolding Qin An, the Niu family became more kind to Xiao Feng's family, and when he turned around, he instructed the kitchen to send soup to the little daughter-in-law, and of course there were no good things left behind for the little grandson. She has figured it out now, her youngest son can't be counted on, she should be kind to her little daughter-in-law and little grandson, and in the future, she will rely on Xiao Feng's family to assist her confused son! If Qin An makes another foolish mistake, and puts on women like He and Jinhuan, and commits that soft ear, how will she live this life?

Niu ran to appease the little daughter-in-law and grandson, but without noticing, Qin Hanzhu stood under the windowsill of the West House, and quickly hid in the flowers outside the corridor, until she walked away, she showed her face, her expression was stunned, and after a while, she quietly returned to the corridor and returned to the west courtyard.

Qin Bai in the house didn't find out, and ordered someone to call Wu Shaoying, and said angrily: "I know that your master and mother are urging you to get married, and you are a little impatient, but you can't take Brother Qian'er's affairs to distract her." Everything else in her life is going well, just two or three things that don't go well, and Brother Qian makes her the most worried, why do you make her uncomfortable?"

Wu Shaoying bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "It's all students." "I didn't have a word of explanation, I listened obediently and was very honest.

Seeing this, Qin Bai became angry, and couldn't help but sigh: "I'm afraid that you still have the intention of blocking Qin An by the way, right?" He is a fool, but God is still good to him, so that he has a good life, so it is no wonder that you look at him unpleasantly." But with his ability, this life is like this, and I don't expect him to have a greater future. You are different, you have a bright future in the future, and you have a good life, and you can't see as much as him. ”

Wu Shaoying smiled slightly: "How come? Brother An is the teacher's son, what can I do with him?" He really didn't take Qin An too seriously, just add a block, and it's over. is really calculating, than He's family, he has already taken revenge, and he doesn't even need to spend time to add to the blockage.

Qin Bai was actually very close to Wu Shaoying, and he called people over to complain, and when he saw that he was well-behaved, he didn't say anything more.

Now Qin Bai is more concerned about Wu Shaoying's next moves: "There are many things on the Wanshou Festival, and the officials may not be able to take care of your new envoy for a while, but it has been a few days since you returned to Beijing, and Zhong Hai and Brother An have also inquired a lot of news for you." What are your plans for your new appointment after the year? Will you be promoted in Jiangnan in the same place, or will you go to another place? Make up your mind as soon as possible, and I will have someone to help you with it. ”
