Chapter 205: Commitment
Zhao Mo was still in the garden, just reading a book while drinking tea in Fengweixuan, and an hour had passed, and he was not bored.
Qin Hanzhen saw his leisurely appearance, and his heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but the degree of guilt would not change. She hurriedly walked into Fengwei Xuan and apologized to Zhao Mo.
Zhao Mo was actually a little impatient, and saw Qin Hanzhen coming over from a distance, so he made this gesture, in order not to make Qin Hanzhen uneasy. Qin Hanzhen apologized to him, he naturally didn't care, and said: "I just went to the front study once, talked to my uncle and grandfather, and met Fifth Uncle Qin. Not long after I came back, you came, but it didn't take too long. Cousin Qin doesn't have to feel sorry for me. ”
Qin Hanzhen was still deeply apologetic: "If I knew this was the case, I wouldn't have made an appointment with you to meet in the garden." Wouldn't it be better for you to simply go to the study to read? It is warmer and more comfortable than in the garden, and there are people waiting for whatever you want to eat and drink. ”
Zhao Mo smiled, thinking to himself where the study room could compare to the garden? Can he meet and talk alone with Cousin Qin in the garden without any scruples, and he is not afraid of being disturbed, can he do it in the study? Now that the weather is very warm, and Fengwei Xuanzhong is not afraid of wind and rain, how good is it for him to wait here, what does it matter if he eats and drinks less? Can he still be hungry and thirsty?
But of course he couldn't say this, and changed the subject: "You've also seen Fifth Uncle Qin's family, right? I remember that my cousin had been worried about Fifth Aunt Qin's unstable fetus, Fifth Uncle Qin's concubine was restless, and Fifth Uncle Qin's little daughter didn't know if she was upbringed or not. ”
Qin Hanzhen said a little embarrassedly: "That's a few gossips I muttered casually, Cousin Zhao doesn't have to take it as a serious matter and take it to heart." My fifth aunt's fetus was a little unstable, but she was fine after a month or two. That concubine was a little restless, but with my grandmother here, she couldn't become a climate. As for the sixth sister, she is still young, and she is taught well by my fifth aunt, so she wants to be fine. She roughly told Zhao Mo about the situation when she met Qin An's family just now. What Jin Huan did to Xiao Feng's specifically, she didn't elaborate, but only mentioned that she seemed to have done something secretly to harm the main room.
Zhao Mo has lived with Qin Bai's family for several years, and he has lived in Qin An's house in Datong for some time, so he has some understanding of the chaos in Qin An's inner house. Coupled with Qin Hanzhen's daily thoughts, when the Niu family talked to her husband and granddaughter, she didn't shy away from Zhao Mo, so he even heard about the latest situation in Qin An's family. What Qin Hanzhen said, he immediately understood it, and he could comment on it: "Uncle and grandmother are really powerful. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Fifth Uncle Qin had been in Datong and had never lived with her parents, that golden ring would not have been bad, and she would have been cleaned up by her uncle and grandmother a long time ago, and she would not have had the opportunity to deceive Fifth Uncle Qin, let alone block Fifth Aunt Qin. ”
Qin Hanzhen sighed: "That's right, but my grandmother has no reason to live in Datong, and I am not very happy to let the fifth uncle come to the Hou Mansion in the capital to enjoy the blessings." My father is still in Guangzhou, alone, without a chord or a concubine. The fifth uncle has a wife and a concubine, has both children and daughters, and is quite smooth as an official, and now that he can be transferred to the capital, why is he doing so well? In contrast, I would rather his back house be chaotic and continue to be played by a concubine than come to the capital. It's just that this kind of thinking is a little sorry for my fifth aunt. She is completely innocent, but because she married the fifth uncle as a continuation, she has to be calculated by the golden ring, but she still has to worry about my fifth uncle's thoughts everywhere, and she doesn't dare to deal with a concubine ruthlessly. ”
How could Xiao Feng be a soft-hearted person? She never relented when she faced her uncle who was ruthlessly trying to take away the family property. After marrying Qin An, he was tied. Maybe it's because of the difference in family backgrounds between the husband and wife, or maybe it's because she hasn't given birth to a son yet, and she feels that her status in her husband's family is not too stable, but Qin An naturally likes gentle and obedient women, which is probably also an important reason for her weakness.
Qin An used to marry He because He was the widow of his comrade, and she was "slandered" and expelled by her husband's family because she was pregnant with a "posthumous son"; he accepted Jinhuan as a concubine because Jinhuan had a humble status but cared about his father and daughter, and he was still "affectionate"; he originally refused to continue the string, but later agreed to marry Xiao Feng, also because Qin Bai mentioned to him in his family letter Xiao Feng's life experience and situation, if this family business failed, Xiao Feng did not know what kind of situation he would fall into.
In this way, it is not difficult to analyze a character trait of Qin An. He prefers meek and weak women, and likes to save the lonely, pitiful White Lotus, probably because doing so can reflect his heroic spirit. He is a martial artist, guarding the border pass, but the border pass is peaceful, he has nothing else to do except train and train again, and occasionally fight a small group of horse thieves. Because of his tutor, he can't do anything brave and ruthless. If there is a chance to embody his heroism, he is naturally happy. Xiao Feng may have seen through him, so he didn't put on a strong appearance, so as not to make him disgusted. It turned out that this method was not bad, if it weren't for Xiao Feng's failure to guard against Jinhuan's several plots, she would have actually enveloped Qin An.
Qin Han really sighed for Xiao Feng, but Zhao Mo had a different opinion.
If Xiao Feng's family really enveloped Qin An and gained Qin An's trust, why should he be restrained in the face of the ill-intentioned golden ring because of all kinds of concerns? She is the main family, and Qin An has never spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, although people are confused, the rules and regulations are all understood. Qin An often had to go to the barracks to participate in the training of soldiers, and at that time, only Xiao Feng and Jin Huan were left in the family, and Xiao Feng had a way to deal with the latter. No matter how cunning Jinhuan is, after all, it is just a concubine of a girl. Even if Qin An will have suspicion and displeasure in the future, Xiao Feng will have another idea to appease people, that is. As a result, she actually connived at Jinhuan to get away with it to this day, and she still had the opportunity to hack her more than once when she was pregnant, but she was always incompetent.
Xiao Feng's family, because his family background is weak and childless, and he has no confidence in the face of his husband, he will leave the golden ring to his mother-in-law to dispose of. However, she is now pregnant and will give birth in a few months. If she gives birth to a son by then, her confidence will be different.
Zhao Mo has experienced all kinds of open and secret battles in the Liao Wang's Mansion since he was a child, and he is more familiar with the many confrontations between Xiao Wang's family and Aunt Lan Xue, so he has long been well-informed. The soft intrigue between Xiao Feng and Jinhuan was not worth mentioning in his eyes. He just made a few comments in front of Qin Hanzhen, and persuaded her that if she really didn't like Jinhuan, she would persuade the Niu family to get rid of people. If Qin An had something to say, he could also think of it.
"If you really don't want Fifth Uncle Qin to stay in the capital, I'll let him go back to Datong, okay? He asked Qin Hanzhen so.
Qin Hanzhen looked at him in surprise, and immediately laughed: "Thank you, Cousin Zhao." I know you can help me, but...... Forget it, although the fifth uncle has made a big mistake and doesn't seem to have made much progress now, my grandmother has always been looking forward to reuniting with his mother and son. If he were to be transferred back to Datong so soon, his grandmother would definitely be disappointed and sad, wouldn't she? What's more, General Ma had already entered Beijing, and the Ma family didn't know if there was anyone left in Datong and no one to protect the fifth uncle, so God knows if he would get into trouble? I worked as an errand in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, stayed in Changping all the year round, and couldn't see me a few times a year, so I should be out of sight. ”
Zhao Mo thought about it and asked her again: "Do you want to ...... We want to let Fourth Uncle Qin come back to the capital, so that your father and daughter can also be reunited. ”
Qin Hanzhen hesitated for a moment: "This depends on what my father means, right? Although he is far away from his family in Guangzhou, he can be on his own, and he also has the opportunity to train, which is good for his career." If there are good vacancies and opportunities in the capital, of course it is better for him to come back. If not...... Then if he stays in the capital and takes up an idle position, it is better to be an official with real power in other places. What's more, in Guangzhou, she actually has something to ask Qin Ping to do, and she doesn't know how long it will take to finish it.
Zhao Mo thought for a while: "He is a garrison in Guangzhou, and the biggest advantage is that he can earn some pocket money. If you just want an official vacancy who can be independent and can be experienced, which is beneficial to your career, you don't have to go so far to Guangzhou. ”
Qin Han really listened to him seriously, Qin Ping said that it was almost time for his term of office to expire, only one or two years away, and now it was time to start inquiring about his promotion.
But Zhao Mo shut up at this time, saying that he was going back to find someone to inquire: "I will discuss it with my uncle and grandfather, and then I will write to Fourth Uncle Qin and ask him what he means." If you can be transferred to a place closer to the capital, it will be much more convenient for you to communicate or visit him. ”
Qin Han really thought that Zhao Mo had always been reliable, and this matter was entrusted to him, so he couldn't be safer, so he thanked him again and again.
Zhao Mo smiled and said, "Thank you for what I'm doing?" I am not an outsider, and I should do my part for Fourth Uncle Qin. "You can't wait until he is going to come to the door to propose, and the father-in-law is still thousands of miles away, right?
Qin Hanzhen blinked, and his face slowly turned red. What does Zhao Mo mean by this......
Zhao Mo hid his smile and deliberately pretended to be casual and turned his head: "If Fourth Uncle Qin can return to Beijing, or be transferred to a place closer to the capital, Uncle and Grandma will definitely persuade him to continue the strings, right? ”
When Qin Hanzhen heard this, his mood calmed down: "Cousin Zhao is right. Reasoning, I shouldn't say anything more about this matter, but my father is only in his early thirties, if he really never marries again for the rest of his life, and lives alone, not to mention that my grandfather and grandmother feel uncomfortable, and I, as a daughter, will also worry about his future life. In addition to him, there is also Cousin Wu, and the same. My father still has me, and my cousin has never even decided on his relatives. I felt bad at the thought of them like that, but I couldn't convince them to change their minds. ”
Especially when he saw Qin An's current living state, this uncomfortable feeling was even stronger.
Qin Hanzhen pursed his lips and said to Zhao Mo very solemnly: "When I see my father and Uncle Wu next time, I must persuade them again." Even if they feel sad about my mother's death, after so many years, it is time to let themselves go. ”
Zhao Mo's gaze softened when he looked at her: "Cousin, just do what you think." If you need help, just talk to me. ”
Qin Hanzhen bent his eyebrows at him and smiled happily.
However, the happiness of Qin Ping and Wu Shaoying is an issue to be considered in the future. For now, let's worry about the marriage of Brother Qin Jian in the lobby first.
