Chapter 40: Awareness
In the evening, when Niu talked to Qin Bai about today's trip to the sect, he mentioned Huang Yiqiu by the way, and told him: "Mohu has seen that girl once, and said that the girl's appearance is a little like the queen's mother. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Qin Bai was extremely surprised: "Really? Is it the daughter of the Huang family? Xiao Huang's niece should be a side branch of the Huang family, how could she be born like a queen? I haven't heard the patriarch talk about it before." "The patriarch should have seen Empress Qin when he was young, even if the time interval was too long, the number of times he saw it was few, there was no reason for him to miss a face that was extremely similar to Empress Qin.
Xing Huang Yiqiu was not born very much like Queen Qin.
Qin Hanzhen said: "Uncle Hu said that at first glance, there are five or six points, but after a closer look, the temperament or something can be recognized at a glance." Since the two families are related, it is also possible to look like. The queen mother is the granddaughter of the Huang family, and Huang Yiqiu is the daughter of the Huang family, so they are always a little related by blood. "It's just that the relationship is a little far away.
Qin Bai was silent for a moment, looking at his expression a little tangled.
Qin Hanzhen asked him, "Grandfather, do you want to see this girl?" She knew that her grandfather had never seen each other since he was exiled to the northwest when he was a teenager and separated from the queen's sister. finally returned to the capital from the northwest, but because of his brother Qin Song's deliberate obstruction, he missed the opportunity to see his sister for the last time. Although Huang Yiqiu is just a little like Queen Qin, when he meets him, he should be able to ease his grandfather's longing for his family a little, right?
Qin Hanzhen enthusiastically suggested to her grandfather: "That girl seems to want to win her grandmother's blue eyes, you can ask your grandmother to invite her to tea in the next post, you can meet by the way." ”
Qin Bai smiled and said, "Nonsense." Good girl's house, what do I want to see a foreign man? ”
Qin Han really disagreed: "You are at this age, what else can you avoid? Besides, even if you tell people directly, you will invite her to have a cup of tea because she was born a little like your sister, what does it matter? This is not an unsightly thing, and it will not have any bad effects." ”
Qin Bai smiled dumbly. He turned to his wife and asked, "What do you think?"
Niu didn't have any idea: "It's not a big deal to call to see it." I haven't seen the Queen's Mother, and I don't know how much this girl resembles him. Uncle Tiger has seen it, and he thinks it is like it, so he will tell his daughter-in-law. It's just that I don't like this girl's temperament very much. It's okay to see her, but don't ask me to invite her over from time to time. ”
Qin Bai smiled: "What are you asking her to come over? No matter how much she is born, she is not the queen mother herself." No matter how similar she is, she is also a girl from the Huang family. What name did I use to invite her over? The Huang family is not the only one with Keyong's daughter-in-law and her mother's family here, but also Huang Jincheng. ”
Speaking of Huang Jincheng, Qin Hanzhen remembered Second Master Huang: "Second Master Huang said that he came to Jiangning to visit relatives, and he was visiting Aunt Keyong's maiden family, right? After so many days, I don't know what happened to Second Master Huang." Anyway, he is also a person who has been with him for a few days, and he also knows that we are here in Qinzhuang, why don't you see him come to visit?"
After listening to his granddaughter's words, for some reason, Qin Bai suddenly fell silent.
Niu took the opportunity to discuss with his granddaughter: "Keyong's daughter-in-law's maiden family doesn't know where she lives, since she is also in Jiangning, it should not be far from here, right? ”
Qin Hanzhen thought that this was a good idea, so he asked Qingxing to look for plums and asked him to inquire about the location of the Huang family.
Since the Huang family is the maiden family of the Xiao Huang family, they are really not strangers in this Qin Village, and after a while, all kinds of news came back.
The Huang family's house is not in the town, but in the countryside near the town, a few miles away from Qinzhuang, not far away. This house was purchased by the Huang family before they moved from Yangzhou a few days ago, needless to say, it is also known that it was Xiao Huang's family who bought the house. At that time, it happened that Qin Keliang was sick in bed and was unable to fulfill the responsibilities of the son, and Qin Ke used the husband and wife to take over the duties of the son and wife of the sect. After the Huang family moved here, Xiao Huang's family bought land and shops for his father and brother, and bought people, so that his mother's family could live a prosperous life.
Xiao Huang's father, Master Huang Liu, has sons and daughters under his knees, and his son Uncle Huang marries his wife Xue, who is the niece and nephew of the Xue family in the second room of the capital, and is a cousin with Xiao Xue. Uncle Huang and his wife also have a pair of children, namely the eldest son Huang Nianchun, who is nearly eighteen years old, and the sixteen-year-old daughter Huang Yiqiu. Because the Huang family is attached to their daughter and son-in-law and lives a rich life, the two juniors who have spent several years in Jiangning are inevitably raised delicately, and their vision is surprisingly high.
Huang Nianchun couldn't study, he ate wine and gambled on weekdays, wandering around, fortunately, he never forgot his sense of proportion, so as not to become a crazy gambler, but when it comes to talent, it can only be described by the word "mediocre". However, he is pretentious, and he feels that he is the grandson of the queen's mother, although it is a side branch and side room, but the emperor's relatives are the emperor's relatives, and his natural identity is extraordinary. For this reason, he has high requirements for his wife, not only wants a girl from a wealthy family, but also wants the other party to be born beautifully, and has to bring a rich dowry. It's not that there are girls with such conditions, but why do people take a fancy to him Huang Nianchun? Therefore, he is now eighteen years old, and he has not yet said that it has become a family business.
With such an elder brother here, Huang Yiqiu, who is a younger sister, is naturally not exempt from vulgarity, and also has the problem of having too high self-esteem. She also has a beautiful appearance, and the idea of marrying into a good family and enjoying a lifetime of glory and wealth is even firmer. But she doesn't have a rich dowry, and her family background is like that, her father, grandfather and brother have no fame, even if she can borrow the scenery of the descendants of the Qin family, it is still a turning scenery, which will not help her much. Her biggest advantage is just a face, but it can't be called stunning.
It is said that when she was only twelve or thirteen years old, because she looked like a beautiful embryo, some people in the Qin clan had taken a fancy to her, and wanted to tell her own children and nephews, so she entrusted her to the Xiao Huang clan of the sect. Who knew that the Huang family didn't take a fancy to the Qin family at all, and the matter was finally settled, making the Qin family very embarrassed, and since then, no child in the house has counted Huang Yiqiu in the waiting list when discussing marriage.
Qingxing said to Qin Hanzhen, Niu and others: "I heard that this Huang girl has always been a person with eyes above the top, and she always looks like a lady and a famous daughter in front of people, and she doesn't care much about people. When she went out to a banquet with her mother, she would give a smile when she met a girl from another family, and her family background was better, but her family background was a little worse, and she ignored it. But the Huang family was not a wealthy family originally, and everyone in the town knew that his family was fine, so few ladies were willing to make friends with her. However, the Huang family is indeed a relative of the emperor in the capital, and although others dislike her temperament, they dare not offend her. ”
Jiangning is far away from the capital, and the Huang family does not belong to the house where the queen's mother was born, but the emperor is far away, who really goes to Yangzhou to check the genealogy of the family? Therefore, the little Huang family wants to raise the reputation of his mother's family, and put out a lot of rumors that sound lofty, and others are convinced and half-convinced, but most people are afraid of the Huang family. Huang Yiqiu was a little colder, and others didn't care.
It's just that this cold beauty has been a little broken recently.
Qingxing said that her brother had just inquired about the news from outside: "I heard that this Huang girl, for some reason, often takes Yahuan around the town recently. She dresses up every day, and her makeup and dresses are carefully prepared, as if she is going to someone else's house for a banquet. But she didn't go anywhere, just wandered around the streets of the town, often standing in front of a house for half a day, and didn't move. The people in the town are gossiping, saying that she is deliberately dressed up and going out to recruit people. ”
Qin Hanzhen pouted when she heard this: "What, she is still a cold and arrogant person in front of people? When she met me and my grandmother today, she was not cold at all, not arrogant at all." To put it bluntly, it is to praise the high and step on the low. Such a person, at this age, has not yet decided on a marriage, and looks a little good-looking, could it be that he wants to know a rich and noble brother, so he goes to the town every day to try his luck, right?"
Qin Bai's gaze staring at Qing Xing was a little deep: "Can your brother find out, where in the town is the place where Miss Huang wanders all day?"
Li Zi has inquired about this: "It is said to be a relatively quiet area, not far from the street, and the entrance of the alley is the most famous baked cake shop in Jiangning." ”
Qin Bai's mood was a little complicated.
The prince lived in the town and has now moved to a new residence. Before that, there happened to be a baked cake shop at the entrance of the alley in the courtyard where the prince lived. Could it be that Huang Yiqiu is going to the prince?
If that's the case, it's a bit of a problem. Because Huang Yiqiu was born a little like Queen Qin, the prince, as a son of man, should still have some impressions of his deceased mother, if he empathizes because of this......
Qin Bai rubbed the corners of his forehead with some annoyance.
He remembered one more thing. When he first met the Prince, he noticed that some unidentified people were watching near the Prince's residence. At that time, he was bent on protecting the prince's safety, so he hurriedly arranged another house and urged the prince to move there, but he did not think carefully about where those unidentified people came from and who instructed them.
But now that I think about it, the few mysterious figures I saw that day, the gray and blue cloth robes they were wearing, weren't they the clothes made by the male servants of the Qin family's sect?
It was really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and my family didn't recognize my family!
However, Qin Bai was secretly angry in his heart. What did the Huang family want to do? What did the little Huang family want to do?
He has to have a good talk with the prince, and he has to talk to Huang Jincheng as well. Qin Bai suspected that Huang Jincheng had known about this for a long time, so he brought Huang Second Master over, wanting to use Huang Second Master to suppress Huang Liu's family.
It's good that he has this heart, but what is he doing now? Huang Yiqiu has his eyes on the place where the prince once lived, and waited for the rabbit there. There is also a little place in the town, and if Huang Yiqiu is allowed to inquire around, the prince will be found out by her sooner or later. What should I do then?

I'd like to adjust the timing of the second shift......
