Chapter 11 The Little Year
Wu Shaoying came to the Qin family again, and it was already the twenty-third day of the lunar month. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info This day is a small year, although the Qin family has a funeral, the whole family has no joy, but some customs still have to be observed, such as the day of the small year to sacrifice to the god of the stove and make sugar melons. When Wu Shaoying entered the gate of the Qin family, he was just in time to catch up with the Qin family who were busy with this.
Qin Han really hadn't seen her cousin for a few days, and she had a stomach of questions she wanted to ask him, but unfortunately she couldn't see anyone. Her grandfather and grandmother refused to tell her everything, and she was depressed alone. Now that she saw her cousin coming, she was immediately happy.
Who knew that after Wu Shaoying came, she only went to the main house to say hello to the Shi Niu family, greeted Qin Hanzhen, and followed Mr. Qin to the small study, not giving Qin Hanzhen a chance to be alone with him at all, she had to be patient and wait for another opportunity.
Seeing his granddaughter's sullen appearance, Niu couldn't help but smile: "You can hang an oil bottle on your mouth, right? Who bullied you?"
Qin Han smiled embarrassedly: "No, I'm ...... I'm curious, what is my grandfather talking to my cousin about? Why can't we talk about it in this house?"
Niu raised his eyebrows disappreciably: "Why else? This is to avoid our mother and son." I see, they are going to talk about the girl in the Guan family, that is, your aunt, what kind of nonsense did she say in our house, and your mother was involved. Actually, what's there to avoid this? It's not that I don't know. β
Qin Hanzhen hurriedly asked, "Grandmother, do you know about this?"
Niu pouted: "Your grandfather is a good man, afraid that I will have a problem with my in-laws, and he will hide a word in front of me, and he can't say anything clearly, so I really can't guess it? If he doesn't say it, I can ask you Mama Hu! What will your grandfather hide from Uncle Hu? If you know Uncle Hu, Mama Tiger will naturally know, where can I still hide it from me? I just don't like to worry about your grandfather, so I just pretend to be confused." That aunt of yours has never been a good girl with good virtues, and I have long known it. Now that I know that it was her bad mouth, I don't think it's strange at all, but it's just a pity for your mother. β
Qin Hanzhen hurriedly leaned over and asked, "What did my aunt say?"
Niu was about to speak, when he suddenly paused and glanced at his granddaughter: "These things are not what your little girl should listen to, anyway, as long as you know that your aunt has a broken mouth, she listened to the words that she shouldn't hear, and she said it in our house, don't ask in detail, so as not to pollute your ears." According to me, the slut surnamed He is too popular, so I guess it's because of my own weak heart. The things she did were not something that ordinary people could do. If she really has a thick skin, she will do it. She is shameless, and others can't help her. It's just shameless for her, and she is not allowed to say it, she has to be praised by others for her virtuous and virtuous and innocent self-discipline, this is not what ...... Done...... Ahem, do you want to set up a torii again?!"
Qin Hanzhen knew in her heart what she was "coughing up", but given that Sister Sang shouldn't know, she could only look at her grandmother with a blank expression.
Niu couldn't help coughing again: "Anyway, you just need to remember not to talk to your aunt in the future." If it weren't for her, your mother wouldn't have died so unjustly. She still didn't repent, and she was angry with your grandfather, and she still shamelessly wanted to marry her cousin, but she didn't know that your cousin annoyed her the most. Your grandmother and aunt are now worried about her, and they are afraid that she will say something ridiculous when she sees outsiders. This year's Chinese New Year, both Heng and Vertical have white things, and there is no need to greet guests in the New Year. You simply don't go to your grandmother's house, lest you see your aunt and be angry. β
Qin Hanzhen hesitated. If they don't go to the Guan family to visit Mrs. Guan, Uncle Guan and Aunt Guan during the Chinese New Year, then after the spring of the next year, their grandchildren go to Datong, and then go to the capital, when will she be able to meet the people of her grandfather's family again?
Qin Hanzhen asked Niu: "Grandmother, after we go to Datong next year, do you want to go to the capital?"
Niu hesitated: "Is this ......" She thought for a while, pouted, "I hate your uncle and grandfather the most, and I don't like your uncle and grandmother, if I am asked to go to the capital to be angry with them, it will never be possible!"
"But......" Qin Hanzhen blinked, "Isn't Dad in the capital? Grandmother doesn't want to see Daddy?"
Of course, Niu Shi thought about it, this lost son was simply her lifeline. If it weren't for the fact that the capital was far away, and now it was freezing cold, it would be difficult to hurry, she was just afraid that as soon as she got the news, she would have to go to the capital. But when I think of my husband's brother's family...... She felt very embarrassed.
Qin Hanzhen said: "If only I could go to the capital and not be angry with my uncle and grandfather." This statement is a temptation.
But Niu didn't hear it, she thought about it and said with a smile: "This is very true." It's not that our family doesn't have any money, it's a big deal to find a place to live by ourselves, everything can be decided by ourselves, and it's cheaper than living in someone else's house, so why do you have to go into that Hou Mansion to be angry? Besides, your grandfather's house is the Yongjia Hou Mansion, not the Cheng'en Hou Mansion. We are from the Yongjiahou family, and we have nothing to do with the Chengenhou Mansion. β
When Qin Hanzhen heard this, he guessed that there was a more than eighty percent chance that his grandfather and grandmother would go to the capital. However, after arriving in the capital, it is still unknown whether he will live there for a long time. She thought for a moment and remained silent for a moment.
Niu coughed a few more times, Qin Hanzhen guessed that the kang in the house was hot, and her throat was itchy, so she went to the small table in the kang house and poured her a cup of tea and sent it over. Niu Shi drank tea, smiled and touched his granddaughter's head: "These days, our sister Sang is becoming more sensible and filial. β
Qin Hanzhen smiled sweetly and said to her: "This is as it should be, grandmother loves her granddaughter, and her granddaughter should also honor you." β
Niu's heart was as sweet as drinking honey, and he said with a smile: "Speaking of which, there seem to be fewer people in our family." There is only one mother Zhang by your side, when something happens, she helps underneath, and you want to ask someone to do something, but no one takes care of it, which is too inconvenient. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will add one or two girls to you. What kind of people do you like? Are there any good little sisters in the village? Would you like them to be your companions?"
Qin Han was really surprised, this ...... Since they are friends who can have fun, how can they call someone to be a girl? Besides, if their own family really wants to go to Beijing, won't they separate the new girl from her family?
However, she wasn't sure if this was the Qin family's traditional practice, so she didn't dare to raise objections, and only said: "It's good that grandmother is in charge, I listen to grandmother." β
Niu nodded with satisfaction, not taking it to heart: "Okay, you put the cup back." Haven't you finished writing today? Take advantage of your grandfather's business, hurry up and copy it, and in a moment your grandfather will come over so that he can show it. β
Qin Hanzhen agreed, moved back to the kang table and copied the book.
At this moment, in the small study, Mr. Qin had already listened to Wu Shaoying's explanation. However, Wu Shaoying followed the instructions of her aunt Mrs. Guan, and did not mention too many details of the peach-colored rumors when He was in Linxian, only saying that Guan Yunniang heard some gossip from the Chen family from the rough envoy mother-in-law of the Qi family, which mentioned that He's brother He Ziyu used to work in a large grange in Linxian County, and that not long after He became pregnant, her husband died, and the clansmen pointed out that she was not the right number of months pregnant, and there were unidentified men who visited late at night, and He gave up seventy percent of his family wealth and quickly remarried Qin Anγ
After hearing this, Mr. Qin's face was a little unpleasant, and he smiled self-deprecatingly before he said, "I see." Back then, I thought that Brother An's approach was too unface-saving for the Chen family, and I wanted to send a message to the Chen family and give them a gift. The child conceived by the He family is not only an orphan of Chen Xiaowei, but should also be sent back to the Chen family to raise after birth. Who knew that the Chen family didn't care about it at all, I thought they were still above the head. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that they have long suspected that the child is not Chen Xiaowei's flesh and blood, so they will wish He took the child to remarry, right?"
Wu Shaoying said: "Whether the Chen family really suspects that the child is not the flesh and blood of Chen Xiaowei, or is it greedy for Chen Xiaowei's inheritance, I wish that the He family's mother and son would not fight with them, only they know." The teacher doesn't have to take this matter to heart, no matter what, this is the Chen family's words. If his family hadn't been weak-hearted, they wouldn't have chosen to tolerate it at the beginning. The student felt that the He family was originally married into the Qin family, and as long as she followed the rules after entering the door, whose flesh and blood was the daughter born before, and what was the difference? Horizontal and vertical are not the flesh and blood of the Qin family. However, if she still doesn't follow the rules after marrying Second Brother Qin, it will be different. This matter has to be investigated again, but it is good to have a prophet meeting with Second Brother Qin. β
Old Mr. Qin pursed his lips. What he cares about is not whether the second daughter-in-law has given birth before entering the door, but whether she herself behaves as a woman and whether she has disgraced the second son? But now that the He family has done so many things, she is no longer worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Qin family, and it makes no difference whether she has made more or fewer mistakes. informed Qin An, but it just made him really make up his mind to divorce his wife.
Old Mr. Qin was more concerned about other issues: "He Ziyu once worked on the Zhuangzi of the Jin Princess? This is the reason why he was able to transfer that group of officers and soldiers from the Zhuangzi of the Jin Princess? What else does he know? The attack on the King of Qin will not implicate him, right?"
The most important thing is that it won't implicate the two sons of the Qin family, right?
Wu Shaoying confessed: "My cousin-in-law once asked Second Brother Qin to bring a letter to the family, this is a fact. However, this matter was approved by King Qin, and it was nothing. The students had already gone to the guards to inquire, but their cousin-in-law just followed them all the way, and they didn't inquire about the route to Beijing, nor did they ask anything that shouldn't be asked. He talked to Second Brother Qin and wrote family letters, all under the noses of the people in the Qin Palace, and the family letters were also read by Zhou Guard's colleagues before they were delivered to Second Brother Qin. Therefore, the student felt that his cousin-in-law was not involved in this matter. I was afraid that after Second Brother Qin returned home, he would say something that should not be said, so that the He family would know, and maybe he would leak the news and let Princess Jin's people hear something. These things will not be clear until Second Brother Qin is asked. β
Old Mr. Qin sighed and said to Wu Shaoying: "You know this matter better, next year I will go to Datong with your master, if you don't have anything else, it's better to come together." β
Wu Shaoying had already had this in mind, and hurriedly said: "If you can serve the teacher and your wife, the students can't ask for it." β
Old Mr. Qin sighed again: "I just hope that Brother An will not be confused." Back then, your wife and I objected to him marrying He, and he insisted on going his own way, and he was away for many years, and rarely came back, and Brother Zi'er was there...... I don't know what he's going to say when he learns about this. β
Wu Shaoying comforted him and said: "Second Brother Qin was personally taught by the teacher, so he naturally understands the reason, and he will not disappoint the teacher and his wife." Please relax, teacher. β
Mr. Qin smiled bitterly: "How can I relax? Okay, the eldest daughter-in-law is gone, and the in-laws are gone, although there are two sons, one is almost gone, and the other doesn't know if it's filial piety." Let's go, don't mention these, today is a small year, if you come, don't go back, just eat at home, stay at night, save the cold day and blow the night wind to rush the night. β
Wu Shaoying smiled and agreed.
