Chapter XXVII
When Qin Hanzhen took Zhang's mother to the backyard, he passed by the second gate and saw a bunch of people crowded there, and he was a little surprised, so his feet stopped. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
This is the second gate connecting the inner and outer courtyards, and it is normal that there are guards on weekdays. But today, guarding the second gate is a person from the Hou Mansion in the capital, two mothers-in-law who follow the car, and two long-term followers, all of whom are strong and healthy, with strong legs and feet. And not far from them, there were two mothers-in-law standing in the face, presumably from the second room. The two mothers-in-law were talking to the porter who had been shown before, glancing at the doorkeeper with resentful eyes as they spoke. And the latter also looked at them with disdain, and the two sides obviously did not get along.
When the mother-in-law guarding the door saw Qin Hanzhen coming, she hurriedly changed her smile on her face, and stepped forward to salute: "The third girl is here?" The third master and the third wife have been waiting in a hurry for a long time, and they have sent someone to ask twice." β
Qin Hanzhen nodded, glanced at the three people in the second room, and asked the woman in a low voice: "What's the matter?"
One of the mothers-in-law glanced at the three of them and smiled disappretently: "The third girl doesn't have to worry, we are here." But he said it unclearly.
However, another mother-in-law was more honest and told Qin Hanzhen frankly: "Wu Gongzi told us to stay here and not allow them to send letters in the inner courtyard." When Fang An Wuye came back, they were about to run to the inner courtyard, but we stopped them and quarreled. β
Qin Hanzhen suddenly realized that it was Wu Shaoying's hands and feet. My cousin really had no last resort and thought too thoughtfully. Qin An had just come back, and she didn't know anything about what He had done beforehand, if she let He take the lead, maybe she would reverse black and white, and in order to justify herself, she would splash sewage on others. Blocking the second gate and preventing the matter of the outer courtyard from reaching the inner courtyard, the He family did not have time to arrive, so that Qin An could know the truth of the matter at the first time. After that, even if the He family was full of tongues and flowers, saying that the dead were alive and the black were white, Qin An also had a first impression, and it was not so easy to be coaxed by her.
Qin Hanzhen was relieved, although she took the first step, but with her cousin by Qin An's side, she was not afraid that Qin An would be confused. The punishment for the He family should be set as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. She and her grandfather and grandmother came to Datong, not to fight wits and courage with the He family. Let's visit the second uncle and Brother Zi'er first, when it's over, they still have to go to the capital to see her cheap father Qin Ping!
Thinking of this, Qin Hanzhen didn't pay attention to the three people in the second room who were still staring at them unkindly, and went straight to the second door.
The Qin family's second-room house, although it is not very large, is also a three-entry pattern. The first entrance is the outer courtyard, with living rooms, guest rooms, carriage sheds, etc.; the second entry is the inner courtyard where the master lives, with three main rooms and two small ear rooms, which are the residences of Qin An and He's family, and the east chamber is where Brother Zi'er lives with his nurse, and the west chamber is the place where Sister Zhang'er lives; as for the third entrance, it is actually a row of several rooms, except for one for the kitchen, the rest are the residences of the subordinates.
Mr. Qin's family came, so naturally there was no reason to live in the guest room or the servant's room in the backyard, but they didn't move into the main house either.
I don't know what the reason is, although the main house belongs to Qin An and He's husband and wife, but Qin An is mixed in the military camp all the year round, and there are not many times when they are at home, the two of them do not live in the same room, the study of the east house is Qin An's, and the bedroom of the west house is He's boudoir, and the things of the husband and wife are also placed separately, which is very different from ordinary couples. Whether Mr. Qin and the Niu family moved into the East House or the West House, there was something inappropriate. went to the East House, and when his son Qin An came back, he had no place to sleep, and when he went to the West House, the old couple responded in their hearts. They simply settled in the east wing where their grandson lived.
There are three rooms in the east wing, and the place is actually quite large. Although there is a small bed in the bedroom, it is only enough to accommodate one Zi Ge'er, but there is a big kang in the warm pavilion, which is more than enough to sleep three grandparents and grandchildren, and it can also accommodate the nurse and a few girls to lay on the floor next to it.
Qin Hanzhen did not live in the east chamber with his grandparents, but was arranged to go to the west chamber. There are three rooms, namely the small flower hall, the bedroom and the study, and only one Sister Zhang lives, which is very spacious.
But Sister Zhang obviously didn't think so.
She was just in front of the elders, behaving like a very demure and polite lady, when Chunhong Xiaqing came to decorate the room with Qin Hanzhen's luggage, and wanted to divide half of her room to Qin Hanzhen, she didn't do it, not only ordered the girl to stop Chunhong and Xiaqing, but the girl couldn't stop it, she also jumped out and scolded herself: "You scoundrels! This is my home, why do you occupy my house? Get out of here!"
Chunhong has never been a worry-free person, and she is from the Hou Mansion in the capital, and she already looks down on the Hou Mansion in the northwest, not to mention that she has heard the rumors and knows that Sister Zhang is just the daughter of Qin An's wife and ex-husband, not the flesh and blood of the Qin family? How can this be your house? This is obviously the house of our Qin family's fifth master, but I am just lending it to your adopted daughter to live in. Now that the serious girl of the Qin family is here, Miss Chen should give in, how can she still have the face to scold?"
Sister Zhang'er was so angry that her face was flushed: "You are just a girl, what kind of thing? You dare to come and scold me?! I am not surnamed Chen, my surname is Qin! I am the eldest girl of the Qin family!"
Chunhong covered her mouth and laughed twice: "Miss Chen actually admitted that she is not surnamed Chen? That's right, the Chen family didn't recognize you." What the girl's surname is, only Grandma An Wu knows. β
Sister Zhang was trembling with anger, crying and calling the girl: "Go beat them and drive them away!"
She is a child who is not sensible, but it was others who taught her to put on everyone's show, so she just learned to pose, in fact, she was just a showman, pretending. Now that he thinks he has been bullied, he will only ask the girl for help. But she is naΓ―ve, which does not mean that the girls around her are also like this. The maids waiting beside her are all carefully selected by the He family, gentle and careful, not to mention, and they are also more clever. As soon as the Qin family entered the door, they heard that this was the biological parents of their male owner, even if the main mother He didn't think so, they didn't think that He could openly resist with their in-laws, but they were just playing some small tricks in private and trying to fight hard. The Niu family ordered, let Qin Hanzhen live in the West Chamber, and it would be impossible for Sister Zhang to disobey the order. Even if it is in front of Qin An and He's family, the result will be the same. Sister Zhang is used to being spoiled on weekdays and can't recognize the situation clearly, but her girl knows what to do and doesn't dare to really hit someone.
Sister Zhang saw that her girl didn't obey the call, so she cried even louder: "You also bully me, I'll tell my mother to go!" Although her girl was afraid, she only dared to stand aside with her head down and didn't move a step. Sister Zhang was so angry that she simply went to the main house to complain, but was stopped by Xia Qing intentionally or unintentionally, except to stand in place and cry, there was no way.
The main room had been quiet, and He and Mama Jin didn't know what they were talking about. Qin Taisheng's family saw that Sister Zhang was at a loss, and she wanted to come over to help, but when she saw more and more strange girls and women in the inner courtyard, she didn't dare to move easily-she was afraid that someone would approach the main house and hear what the people in the house were saying.
Just when Sister Zhang was crying hard, Qin Hanzhen came over. As soon as Sister Zhang saw her, her heart was a little weaker, and she stopped crying, and only glared at her fiercely, but she didn't dare to say a word.
Qin Hanzhen didn't know what she was messing with, and when Chunhong stepped forward to explain the situation, she said to Sister Zhang disapplausively: "What's there to cry about? You are only one person, can you still sleep in three rooms? Let one room come out for me to live for a few days, what's not okay? Shouting for this little thing, the beautiful appearance in the front yard before, it turned out to be a lie?"
Sister Zhang was embarrassed, and stomped her feet and said, "How many rooms do you care I can sleep in? These three rooms are mine, and no one else is allowed to occupy them! In the past, in your house, I couldn't fight you, forget it." Now in my house, I am not allowed to call the shots?!"
Qin Hanzhen snorted: "If you can call the shots, you won't be able to cry here." My second uncle is back, why don't we go and ask him what he means? Anyway, this is his house. I just asked him if he couldn't let one of the three rooms he gave his adopted daughter live in for his niece? If he said no, I would leave immediately. β
Sister Zhang was stunned, biting her lip and not speaking. She didn't have to ask to know what the answer was. Only her mother loves her the most, and although her father also hurts, he never spoils her. My father's mother had ordered this, so how could my father reject it?
Sister Zhang was unwilling, and only looked in the direction of the main house. Why hasn't her mother come out to call the shots for her?
Qin Hanzhen couldn't wait, and said to Chunhong and Xia Qing: "Let her go to her bedroom, look at her appearance in red and green, and know that her room must be very cheesy." I have filial piety in me, how can I live in such a place? I can decorate it in the study, don't make trouble, and make noise for my grandfather and grandmother to rest. β
Chunhong really wanted to fight again, but was pulled by Xia Qing, but she still shut up, and obediently worked with Xia Qing to take out the luggage that was originally placed in Sister Zhang'er's bedroom and put it in the study instead. Although Sister Zhang rarely has a place to use the study, she is not at ease, and follows them, chattering non-stop, not saying that this cannot be touched, or that it cannot be moved. Chunhong was not angry, and said a few more words with her, and said a few ridiculous words, which made the little girl angry again. Xia Qing only ignored it.
Qin Hanzhen didn't bother to care about their affairs, so he went to the East Chamber, reported Qin An's return to his grandfather and grandmother, and told Qin An about the situation, and said, "The second uncle looks very shocked, and his cousin is accompanying him outside." When he calms down, he will come back to see his grandfather and grandmother. β
Niu snorted: "It turns out that he doesn't know, but it's okay." It's just that it's obviously his own home, but he has been blinded by the slut surnamed He for so long, and he's really stupid, don't continue to be stupid!"
Mr. Qin sighed: "You are here again, in fact, you are the one who feels the most sorry for your son, but you have to be hard-mouthed." Really scolded your son so badly, isn't it you who is uncomfortable?"
Niu's was a little sneering, and Qin Hanzhen secretly snickered.
Compared to the situation in the inner courtyard, the atmosphere in the hall of the outer courtyard is very different.
Qin An's face was pale, drenched in cold sweat, and he only felt dizzy. Wu Shaoying's questions, every one of them can kill people. And what Wu Shaoying said made him even more frightened.
All he could say was one sentence: "My brother didn't tell me the route they left, and I only gave the letter to He, telling her that her brother was not dead, and asked her to give the letter to her father and mother...... I didn't say anything more. β
Wu Shaoying breathed a sigh of relief immediately, but then said: "If this is the case, why did she hide the letter? She did whatever she wanted in Mizhi, acting only on her own likes and dislikes, and for the sake of a little gossip, she would drive out all the irrelevant people. It's not so much that she's crazy, but I think it's ...... It's more like she thinks her cousin-in-law can't come back, so she has nothing to fear!"
He leaned closer to Qin An: "If that's the case, then who made her have this idea?" (To be continued.) )
