Chapter 15: Embarrassment

A little boy of seven or eight years old rushed in from outside the courtyard gate, his face full of grief and indignation, his clothes were stained with some liquid, and the placket was black. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He looked up and saw that Mrs. Guan had opened the window, so he ran over and cried: "Grandmother, my little aunt spilled my grandfather's medicine, and said that I was careless and beat me!"

Old Mrs. Guan sank her face: "What the hell is going on?!"

The little boy sobbed and said, "Sister Zao'er is boiling medicine for my grandfather in the kitchen, I helped her watch the fire, I just boiled the medicine and put it in a bowl, I was about to send it to my grandfather, before I went out of the kitchen door, my little aunt bumped into me and broke the medicine bowl." The medicine spilled on my clothes, it was so hot, my clothes were dirty. The little aunt opened her mouth and said that I accidentally bumped into her and dropped the bowl. I said that she didn't see the road well, but she started crying, and beat me while crying, saying that even I was against her......" The more he talked, the more aggrieved he became, and he also cried.

Qin Hanzhen looked out in the room, and after hearing these words, he was once again stunned by what his aunt Guan Yunniang had done. How can this girl be so capable? And this boy should be the son of Uncle Guan and Uncle Guan's mother, right? Sister Sang'er's cousin seems to be called Guan Xiu.

Mrs. Guan was angry enough, although her grandson was careless, but how old is her youngest daughter Yunniang? Her nephew was burned by the medicine, and she didn't say a word about whether it mattered, but instead started to fight people, which was really more and more unorthodox! In front of the Qin family, Mrs. Guan felt that her face was spicy.

The movement was also heard in the main house, and Aunt Guan hurriedly lifted the curtain and came out, ran to her son's side, and carefully checked for him, and found that he was only reddened by the skin on the back of his hand, and there was no major problem on his body, so he was relieved.

In fact, now that the weather is cold, the medicine is not very hot after it is boiled, and it is not very hot after filtering the slag and filling the bowl, and Guan Xiu is wearing thick clothes, so it has not brought him any serious damage.

But Aunt Guan still couldn't help but feel sorry for her son, and felt a little resentful of the sister-in-law's messing around, so she said to Mrs. Guan: "Mother, I'll take Brother Xiu'er back to the house to change clothes, but Yun Niang is there to ......."

Mrs. Guan said angrily: "Let her go! I just don't let her go out!"

Aunt Guan took her son back to the house. Old Lady Guan turned her head and looked at Mama Shanghu and Qin Hanzhen, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Mama Hu had already been dissatisfied with the youngest daughter of the Guan family, so she asked lightly: "What's wrong with the second girl in the house? Who provoked her today? It seems that she is very angry." ”

Mrs. Guan smiled dryly: "The child is not sensible, she is spoiled by her old son, and Mama doesn't have to pay attention to her." He pulled her granddaughter over and continued to speak, asking her what she wanted to eat and what she wanted, and persuaded her to stay at Guan's house for a few more days.

Mama Tiger dissuaded: "My sister is still taking medicine, my in-laws are so sick, I'm afraid that the house doesn't have the heart to take care of my sister, so let my sister go back." Relatives of grandmother and uncle, there will be times for them to come and go in the future. ”

Mrs. Guan smiled dryly: "Mama is right." She paused, "I just told Mama, Mama must remember to mention it to the in-laws and the wife." I also know it's a reluctant invitation, it's just ...... Sister Sang is the only blood left by my daughter, and I really can't rest assured. ”

Mama Tiger said with a straight face: "If the wife of the in-laws family, I will return to the lord and wife, but I don't know how the lord and wife will decide." ”

Old Lady Guan wanted to squeeze out a smile, but she didn't succeed, she just hugged Qin Hanzhen weakly.

Qin Han couldn't help but be curious in his heart. What did Mrs. Guan say to Mama Hu? Why does it seem that Mama Hu is not very happy, and Mrs. Guan's face is also a little weak?

At this time, there was movement in the direction of the front yard again. Guan Yunniang's crying seemed to be louder, and someone knocked on the door, Zao'er ran over to open the door, it turned out that the neighbor heard the cry and rushed to ask: "But Master Guan is not good, what can I do to help?"

But when the Guan family in the backyard heard it, they inevitably got angry. Old Man Guan was seriously ill and had never lost his breath, so Guan Yunniang cried loudly, causing the neighbors to misunderstand, which was really unlucky.

Uncle Guan lifted the door curtain and hurriedly ran out, walked through the entire backyard to the front yard, and counted the sisters: "How many grievances do you have, do you have to make trouble at this time? Dad is still sick, don't you say that you are filial piety in front of his bed, and you also spilled his medicine, and now you are crying here again." Daddy's most painful thing on weekdays is you, and that's how you honor him?!"

Guan Yunniang was not to be outdone: "Dad loves me the most on weekdays, but because of his illness, you rely on Dad to no longer protect me, and they all bully me." Why can't I cry? I'm going to cry to my dad and tell him that he's not dead yet, and that his daughter is about to be bullied to death!"

Uncle Guan was angry, but Guan Yunniang still refused to keep his mouth shut: "Aren't you just afraid that I will say something in front of the Qin family? I'm not afraid! Some people do it, and they are afraid of being ......told by others." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a loud slap.

Uncle Guan slapped the little sister fiercely, and said angrily: "Don't you want to shut up for me?! If you dare to talk nonsense like this again, I will send you to the nunnery to be a sister-in-law! I will also save a dowry! Don't say that the elder brother bullies you, I will really bully you to see, what can you do?!"

Guan Yunniang was probably really scared this time, so she didn't dare to talk nonsense, so she ran back to the backyard crying, and went straight to her bedroom in the south room of the West Wing, and there was no movement.

Uncle Guan returned to the backyard, already looking haggard. Aunt Guan came out of the house and looked at her husband with concern, and the couple was relatively speechless.

The curtain of the main house was lifted, and Wu Shaoying sent Mr. Qin out. Uncle Guan looked at him with an embarrassed expression on his face: "The little sister is rude, and the in-laws are laughing." ”

Old Mr. Qin smiled good-naturedly and said, "My father-in-law just slept again." The house is busy, and I don't want to bother too much, so let's take Sister Sang back. If there is any news, please send a message to our family. ”

When the Qin family came to the county seat to visit the Guan family, they always wanted to keep food. Uncle Guan opened his mouth to persuade Mr. Qin to sit for a while, but he was embarrassed to speak when he thought of the mess his sister had just made. Who knows when Guan Yunniang will make trouble again? If she annoys her in-laws, it will not be beautiful. In the end, Uncle Guan only said sneeringly: "You have a good journey, just come back when you are idle in the future." ”

Mrs. Guan was reluctant to give up her granddaughter, and she had some selfish intentions and wanted to stay with Sister Sang for two more days, but her youngest daughter made a fuss, which made her feel embarrassed. At this time, Mr. Qin said that he wanted to take the child away, and she couldn't forcibly keep people. Besides, the youngest daughter was in the south room of the west wing, too close to the north room where she and her granddaughter were. In case the youngest daughter gets willful and runs over and talks nonsense, it will be another trouble. Mrs. Guan finally reluctantly sent her granddaughter away, and did not forget to remind her: "When you are well, remember to come to see grandma more." ”

Qin Hanzhen was hugged into the carriage by Mama Tiger again, and watching her grandfather, Mr. Qin, turn over on the horse again in a very handsome posture, she still felt a little unable to turn around. I thought that this trip to the home would take at least half a day, but I didn't expect that I would go back before lunch time?

Calculating the time spent on the road when they came, Qin Hanzhen didn't have to think about it to know that they would definitely starve on the road. However, my grandfather was delicate, and when he left the county seat, he specially asked Hu Er to buy some dry food in a roadside restaurant to prepare for hunger on the road.

The dry food bought by Hu Er is a kind of local food called "stove bun", made of flour, a bit like a pie, which contains brown sugar, walnut kernels, peanut kernels, green and red silk, sesame seeds, plum cinnamon sauce and other materials, and it tastes good. But Mama Tiger said that there was lard in it, and she was afraid that Qin Hanzhen would be weak and would not be able to digest it, so she only broke some corners and corners for her, and ate the warm tea she brought with her, barely half full, and it was estimated that she could support the ten miles of the road.

The way back was still bumpy, Qin Hanzhen took the medicine given by Uncle Guan, and lasted a little longer, but halfway through, he still couldn't hold on, and his head rose again, and he vomited all the things he had just eaten, and when he returned home, the whole person was sluggish and listless.

As soon as Niu saw his granddaughter's appearance, he was so distressed that he hurriedly asked Mama Hu to carry her to the kang, and asked people to heat millet porridge. The Qin family had just had lunch, and the kitchen had just turned off the stove, but the Niu family had to rekindle the fire when he gave the order.

Qin Hanzhen put half a bowl of hot millet porridge into his stomach, and felt that he had finally come back to life, so he took a long breath, next to the big pillow next to his grandmother's kang, half crooked and half lying, not wanting to move.

Niu was talking to Mr. Qin, asking him why he came back so early, how was Old Man Guan's condition, and so on. Mr. Qin didn't say anything about the deeds of the youngest daughter of the Guan family, but simply said: "The father-in-law doesn't look very good, and he can't even recognize people." I saw that their family was worried, and they must have no intention of entertaining us, so they simply brought Sister Sang back first. Sister Sang'er and her uncle said that if there is any news, they will send a letter to our family. ”

Niu nodded: "That's fine." If it's me, the old man in the family is so sick, how can he still take care of eating with others?" and asked his mother-in-law, Mrs. Guan, how was the old lady, and whether the illness on her body was getting better, Mr. Qin answered one by one, and went to the study to rest.

He is also an old man, running around for a long time, and his body is tired.

As soon as Mr. Qin left, Niu's gave Mama Tiger a look, and the two were about to ask Mama Zhang to come back from the lower courtyard and carry Qin Hanzhen back to the house, but when they turned their heads, they found that Qin Hanzhen had already laid down, with a pillow, his eyelids fell straight down, and he dozed off.

Seeing that it was funny, Niu pulled over the jacket and made a quilt for his granddaughter, thinking about what the child could understand?

Mama Hu said cautiously: "I saw it, but my in-laws and Sister Sang are here, so I can't ask him." I wanted to wait until I had lunch to look for a chance, but who knew that the old man called him to come back early, and the matter didn't work out. But ......" She leaned into Niu's ear and said a few words, Qin Hanzhen was close, and vaguely heard her mention her aunt Guan Yunniang, as if she was describing Guan Yunniang's various faux pas.

Qin Han really calculated, Mama Hu should not have heard the content of Guan Yunniang's quarrel with Wu Shaoying, but Guan Yunniang's words and deeds are weird, the Guan family goes up to Mrs. Guan, down to Uncle Guan, Aunt Guan, they all look embarrassed and embarrassed, Mama Hu is not blind, how can she not see it?

Qin Hanzhen listened to the quarrel between Guan Yunniang and Wu Shaoying, and knew that it was probably because Guan Yunniang wanted to marry the latter, so he pulled the Guan family. Old man Guan scolded the eldest daughter under a misunderstanding, and it didn't take long for the eldest daughter to hang herself. Old man Guan vomited blood and fell ill, perhaps thinking that his eldest daughter had committed suicide because of his words, so he was sad and remorseful. Mrs. Guan, Uncle Guan, etc., may also have a conflict with Guan Yunniang for this. Guan Yunniang insisted that she was right, and became more and more antagonistic to her family.

Qin Hanzhen can't figure out this confused account. But she still remembered what Guan said before she died, and felt that Guan's search for death may not be related to Old Man Guan's scolding. What Guan hates is the concubine He.

Qin Han really thought, how should she deal with this matter?
