Chapter 172: Sister-in-law

Niu didn't like this kind of scene the most. She frowned, looked at her niece, then at her niece, and then at the latter a few more times.

She felt that today the second nephew and daughter-in-law were the most inexplicable, what kind of ugly things did the niece and daughter of Qin Youyi's mother-in-law have, what kind of reputation did she have, when did she say that she was marrying someone, what kind of family she was marrying, and what did it have to do with her second nephew and daughter-in-law? In front of so many people, everyone just said something on the scene, so why bother to be sarcastic? The eldest girl of the Su family did something wrong, but what can the fifteen-year-old girl's family understand? Isn't it all the fault of those playboys? Can the second nephew and daughter-in-law be so mean?

Niu rarely hides his true feelings on weekdays, and once he is unhappy, his face is revealed.

Xu sensed the displeasure of the concubine. To be honest, she was not very happy, and now she feels that her daughter-in-law and daughter don't give her a long face. She frowned and shouted at the two of them: "Enough! What are you making trouble in front of your third aunt?!"

Yao and Qin Youyi were busy talking, got up and bowed their heads to listen to the training.

Qin Youyi was ashamed of herself, although she had never looked down on her eldest sister-in-law's temperament and some practices, she couldn't afford to quarrel with the other party when she needed to ask for help from her mother's family. She felt that she was worried that things would not go well on her husband's side, so she was easily provoked by her eldest sister-in-law. Even if she doesn't listen to what her sister-in-law says, she will be angry again, just if she didn't hear it. What kind of person is the eldest sister-in-law, she doesn't know it, why should she be like the other party?

Yao's was a little remorseful, Fang Cai was too anxious, and he disliked Miss Su so obviously in front of his mother-in-law and uncle. She had actually been worried that her sister-in-law would bring up the old matter again, and wanted to tell her niece Miss Su to Qin Jian. After all, now that Miss Su's reputation is discredited, it is time to be anxious to find another good family. In case Qin Youyi relied on her mother and brother to love her and forcibly agree with this family affair in order to win the favor of her mother-in-law's family and consolidate her position in her mother-in-law's family, then how should she be good? She was not willing to marry her son such a notorious daughter-in-law! In any case, she would have to mess up her sister-in-law's calculations.

Originally, Su Boxiong, the prince of Zhenxi Hou, and his wife were going to send their daughter to Huguang, and Yao's heart was still a little calmer, but he just felt that the sister-in-law and his wife came strangely today, so they came to find out. Unexpectedly, the sister-in-law suddenly changed her mind and said that she was going to tell her niece about her family in the capital, and she had to do it as soon as possible. Who in the capital doesn't know about Miss Su's ugly deeds? If you really want to say it, the most certain thing is her own mother's family, right? Is the sister-in-law's words implying something? Yao's heart is very anxious, and he is really afraid that the sister-in-law will take advantage of the opportunity of leaving home for several years to arouse the love and pity of her mother-in-law, and she will relented for a while, so she agrees to the family affair. This is a lifelong event for her only son. Even if she was mean, she couldn't care about it. She now looks down on Miss Su from the bottom of her heart, and she can't wait to trample people into the mud.

However, Yao's thoughts, where could the two elders present think of it? instead, they felt that she had nothing to do, and they were a little annoyed in their hearts. Although Xu blamed his daughter-in-law and daughter at the same time, he was actually even more angry with his daughter-in-law.

She stared at Yao Shi unhappily: "Are you so idle today? Tomorrow is the spring banquet, don't you watch the people at home to set up the garden, and come to disturb your third aunt What are you doing? If you really have nothing to do, I have an envoy to tell you." ”

Yao's heart was aggrieved, and he only felt that his mother-in-law was partial, but he didn't know the sister-in-law's sinister intentions at all. But of course, she wouldn't reject it on the spot, but just said aggrievedly: "The garden has been arranged, the dishes have been decided, and the people waiting for Ming'er are all ready." The daughter-in-law came to ask because she heard that her aunt and grandmother would not be coming tomorrow, thinking that the seats and dishes might need to be changed. ”

Qin Youyi frowned: "Second sister-in-law, who did you hear that I won't come tomorrow?"

Yao glanced at her: "Naturally, it's my aunt's girl." Could it be that they are lying?"

Qin Youyi shut up. Of course, her girl was not lying, but they didn't know what was going on with their husband and wife, only because they heard everyone talking about it in the Zhenxi Hou Mansion, and knew that their husband and wife were going to leave Beijing tomorrow and were busy packing their luggage, so they misunderstood. But she couldn't defend her girl, although she didn't understand her brother's intentions, but since Qin Zhonghai stopped the Yao family and didn't let her enter the study to listen to the conversation between their brother and sister Lang, there must be a reason, why did she tear down her brother's platform?

Qin Youyi shut up, and the Xu family also knew it, only the Niu family looked confused: "What's the matter? Ming'er Spring Banquet, didn't you say it well before? Why did Youyi and Su's son-in-law suddenly say that they wanted to leave? It's not bad that in the past few days, our brother An hasn't returned to Beijing yet. The previous son received a letter from him, saying that he was not in a hurry on the road, and in order to accommodate his daughter-in-law's big belly, the road was slower. They originally came to the capital with General Ma, and General Ma was not in a hurry, and kindly accommodated their steps, saying that it was more interesting to be accompanied along the way. I was expecting the couple to return to Beijing for the Spring Banquet, but now I can't catch up. But General Ma is not in a hurry, so what do I have to worry about? Counting the days, they are afraid that it will not be until the end of the month. Youyi and her family will set off in a few days, and there is plenty of time. ”

Qin Youyi smiled reluctantly: "My father-in-law is afraid that our second master will delay his errand, so he has been urging us to set off as soon as possible." He is the most serious old man, where do you want to get a birthday or not?"

Niu Shi said: "I see, he doesn't love more seriously, he just likes to embarrass others." He and his wife are really a natural pair, and they are good at tossing people!"

Qin Hanzhen heard this outside the door, and felt that he should go into the house to stop this meaningless quarrel, so he lifted the curtain and walked in, greeted several elders with a smile, and relayed Su Zhongying's words to Qin Youyi.

Qin Youyi was taken aback: "Our master has gone home? really?!"

Qin Hanzhen nodded and confirmed: "It's true, I said I would go back if I went." ”

Qin Youyi couldn't help but look worried, biting her lower lip and not speaking.

Qin Hanzhen said to the Yao family again: "The second uncle was very surprised when he heard that the second uncle was coming, and said that he would come to you in a while and go home together." ”

Yao Shi was stunned, thinking that her husband specially emphasized such a sentence, did it mean anything special......

While speaking, Qin Zhonghai came. He saluted Niu and Xu, greeted Niu's daily life, and said to Yao: "I want to find something, but I forgot where to put it, can you go back with me to find it?"

Yao was a little puzzled: "What is it? Yulan holds the key to our courtyard, and Yuluo is in charge of the storehouse, and her memory is excellent." Whatever you're looking for, just tell them. ”

Qin Zhonghai snorted: "How can the girls compare with you? besides, you are not in the house, what should I do with them?"

Yao's heart was secretly happy when he said this, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "What are you talking about?" and then took the initiative to say goodbye to the Xu family and the Niu family. Although she is still very worried that her sister-in-law will give birth to a moth, it is naturally her husband who is more important at the moment. She has to talk to her husband and let him stand in the way, so she is not afraid that her mother-in-law Xu will be confused.

Yao followed Qin Zhonghai away. At least three of the ladies in the room breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing this, Qin Hanzhen couldn't help laughing, and ordered the girl to bring new hot tea and snacks.

When the girls retreated, Xu said to Niu: "Zhonghai's daughter-in-law doesn't know what's wrong today, her temperament is so big, she said something unpleasant for some reason, but Youyi was also angry." The two juniors lost their manners, and they asked their younger siblings not to blame. ”

Niu Shi waved his hand: "What is polite to the family? I am just bored, how can the second nephew and daughter-in-law dislike Miss Su so much? In the past, she only talked casually, but I didn't expect her to be so polite in front of Youyi. ”

Xu and Qin Youyi couldn't guess the reason, and they only felt inexplicable in their hearts. However, they came to pass the time today, and at the same time, they were waiting for the results from the study, so they were not in a hurry to go back to Dongfu, so they continued to chat with the Niu family.

Qin Hanzhen sat with them for a while, and then couldn't sit down. With this time, she might as well spend it on something more meaningful. She found a vacancy, made an excuse to quit, and went back to her own yard.

In the past few days, she has already come up with a rough draft of "Longfu Temple Meeting Map", but if she wants to paint perfectly, she still needs to work hard, and some unfamiliar themes and painting methods have to find time to study. It takes a lot of practice to sketch, or to copy the masterpieces of predecessors, or to ask his grandfather Qin Bai and other famous painters for guidance. She has been busy with this recently, where can she take care of chatting with others?

However, Qin Youyi and Su Zhongying's husband and wife came to ask for help, as well as the information revealed by the latter in the conversation with Qin Bai and Qin Zhonghai, all surprised her. Before she started to practice painting, she did a simple sorting out of the information she had just collected, carefully collected it, and left it for Zhao Mo to communicate with him when she came home tomorrow, so that she could learn more about the latest developments in the outside world.

Yao followed her husband Qin Zhonghai back to Shengyiju with sweetness, and asked him with a smile, "What are you looking for?"

"I want to find your sanity. Qin Zhonghai unexpectedly raised his face, "What's the matter with you?" I heard the girl in the third aunt's courtyard talking in private, saying that you gave your sister no face in front of your mother and third aunt. ”

Yao Shi was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his eyes turned slightly red: "How do you say this? The third aunt is too indulgent to the girls in the family, how can I let them talk nonsense? Where am I giving my aunt and grandmother no face? It's just that when I talk about family life, when I talk about Miss Su, I can't listen to my aunt and grandmother open her eyes and talk nonsense." What I said was fair, and I didn't go to my aunt and grandmother, how could I misunderstand me like this?!"

Qin Zhonghai frowned: "Okay, what are you talking about other girls' gossip, my sister is Miss Su's aunt, and it is also a proper duty to protect the children." It's like the daughter of your Yao family has heard some messy rumors outside, and she said that the three girls are not the ones who say in front of you, won't you protect the three girls and defend her for one or two? You know your sister's difficulties, why do you have to be more serious about such a trivial matter? Hengzhi Our family will not marry Miss Su as a daughter-in-law, and my sister is holding up the niece and daughter of her in-law's family to the sky, what does it have to do with you?!"

Yao's eyes immediately burst into tears: "But...... My aunt and grandmother clearly wanted to tell Miss Su to be our brother Jian'er as a daughter-in-law! She came to mention it to Mrs. on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but Mrs. never agreed. Now she's going to mention it again...... You also know that Madame is reluctant to give her up now, in case she soft-heartedly agrees, what if you call us Brother Jian?!"
