Chapter 50: Accidents
Qin Hanzhen finally stayed in the Chengenhou Mansion.
It's not that she can't refuse everyone in the long house, but Feng'er said something to her in private: "When I came back with a food box to restore my life, my wife instructed me, saying that the snow is heavy today, if the girl has dinner in Dongfu and the weather is really bad, there is no need to rush back, and it will be okay to stay in this mansion for a night." If the girl goes back in the snow at night, in case she bumps along the way, it will worry her and Hou Ye. For this reason, she specially asked me to wrap the girl's spare hair-combing guy and a change of clothes in a bag, and bring them with me, just in case. It's just that after coming in, I sent the things to Mingyuewu, put them in the cabinet in the west wing and locked them, so that I didn't let the ladies and grandmothers and girls see it. ”
The west wing of Mingyuewu is Qin Hanzhen's former residence, and now it is still empty and no one lives there, only occasionally a girl will go over to sit and do needlework. Qin Hanzhen occasionally goes to the house, and when necessary, he will borrow something there, or go there to take a nap or something. Feng'er put her combing guy and a change of clothes there, which was also a common thing, and it was rare that this girl could even think of bringing a lock and locking the cabinet, which was very careful.
Qin Hanzhen's set of combs is not cheap, the homely set is easy to say, it is just sandalwood, but the spare set is a gift from a French businessman when she was with her father Qin Ping in Guangzhou, a full set of dressing utensils inlaid with tortoiseshell, which is worth some silver. casually stuffed it into the empty room, for fear that some shallow-eyed girl would see it and touch it greedily. The character of the subordinates on the side of the Chengenhou Mansion, Qin Hanzhen is not very trusted.
After listening to Feng'er's words, Qin Hanzhen decided to accept the invitation of the long room and borrow it for one night in Mingyuewu, not in the west wing where he had lived before, but in the main house to sleep with Qin Jinhua and Qin Jinchun. Think about it tonight, Niu asked the kitchen to cook Qin Bai's favorite dishes, and the couple planned to drink two cups, and don't go back to make light bulbs for their granddaughter.
Qin Jinhua happily entertained Qin Hanzhen to live in the warm pavilion in his house. After freshening up, she also very enthusiastically asked Qin Hanzhen Amway's usual emollient balm and hair maintenance oil. Qin Hanzhen had heard of these two products, and the shops that sold them were quite famous in the capital, and it was said that behind them was the capital of a certain royal mansion. She also studied their ingredients, but she felt that the oil content was too high, and there were many spices, and her effectiveness was doubtful. Most of the skin care products she uses today are natural synthetic products made by DIY, freshly made, with a short shelf life, but they are safe and have no side effects, and they are used to using it, which is most suitable for their skin type, and they are more reliable than those bought outside.
But Qin Jinhua was so enthusiastic, Qin Hanzhen didn't want to splash her cold water, thinking that it was just one night, so many ladies of rich and noble families had no problem using it, and they could naturally use it, so he accepted Qin Jinhua's kindness and wiped some on himself.
After doing skin care, the two little girls climbed on the kang and played games around the small kang table while keeping warm. They were still playing Shuanglu, but Qin Jinhua muttered: "When I celebrated my birthday this year, the cousin of the Yao family gave me a new set of promotion charts. I thought it was too big, it took too much space, and it was too boring to put it down, so I kept it in the box. When the time comes for the Chinese New Year, there is nothing to do, and the third sister will also come over, just like tonight, let's continue to live in a room, sleep on a big kang, and take out the new set of promotion pictures to play, okay? When the time comes, I will call Cousin Lu, the fourth sister, and the fifth sister over, and there will be more people. ”
Qin Hanzhen responded with a smile, and the promotion picture...... It feels like she hasn't played much for two or three years, but when she was in Jiangning in the past, she often played with the sisters in the clan.
While talking, Qin Jinchun also freshened up, wearing a homely old jacket and a thick cloak, walked over from the east chamber, and as soon as he entered the house, he drilled into the big kang in the warm pavilion, and shouted: "It's cold to me outside! Why is it snowing so much? It's just Laba today!"
Qin Han really thought, although she remembered that it seemed to be the Xiaoice River period at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and the weather was extremely cold, but in this changed time and space, she couldn't figure out how many years she was in, let alone whether there were any changes in the climate in her country. Maybe this winter's low temperature is just an exception, because last winter was quite normal. However, it is better to be a person and take precautions. Should she vigorously promote high-yield crops such as corn and potatoes on her own Zhuangzi, and then recommend them to Zhao Mo, so that Zhao Mo can exert a little influence on the side of the prince of the East Palace and increase the overall yield of crops in her country?
Qin Hanzhen was still silently thinking about serious agricultural issues, and Qin Jinhua and Qin Jinchun were already happily fighting on the mainland. Without Qin Jinrong, a stingy cat, and no need to pretend to be well-behaved in front of the elders and Lu Jiayue's cousin, the two of them just had fewer scruples and kept making trouble. Qin Hanzhen came back to his senses, and when he saw them having such a good time, his mood was also relaxed, and he also laughed with them.
There was a lot of fuss, and Qin Jinhua's eldest girl suddenly reported with a solemn face: "Girl, third girl, fourth girl, Cailuo in the big grandmother's house suddenly came." The mother-in-law on the second door didn't give her an order and didn't dare to let her in, so she sent a message to come in and ask. ”
Qin Jinchun was stunned, lifted the quilt from behind the kang table and sat up straight: "How could Cailuo come over?" Cailuo is one of the big girls who have to be used by Xiao Xue's side, and he must have been ordered by Xiao Xue's to come over. But Qin Jinchun remembered that she had already sent grapes to deliver Laba porridge to her mother Xiao Xue today, and everything was as usual at that time, and she also brought back a home-made Laba porridge. It's only been half a day, what will happen to Xiao Xue's family, so that Cailuo needs to rush over overnight at the risk of being questioned by the night inspector of Shuntian Mansion?
Qin Jinchun's face turned white in an instant, and Qin Jinhua hurriedly instructed Xia Shuxia: "Quickly bring people in." On this snowy day, it's so late, how could she suddenly come over?" Qin Hanzhen comforted Qin Jinchun: "It's okay, if there is really anything important, Cailuo will definitely report to the elders above first, and then inform you, then there will be no mother-in-law on the second door who doesn't know whether to let her in." I guess it's because the eldest aunt is in a hurry to tell you something, so she will be called. ”
When Qin Jinchun heard her say this, his heart calmed down a little.
After a while, Sasha came in with Cailuo. The latter wore a thick cotton jacket and a silk armor inlaid with sheepskin, and a large half-worn cloak on the outside, and his hair was covered with snowdrops, and his face was blue from the cold. Dye Qiu took off her big cloak wet with snow, and Hua Dong stuffed her with a bowl of hot ginger soup, she drank it, her body was warmer, and she could speak smoothly, but her voice was still a little trembling.
She saluted Qin Hanzhen and Qin Jinhua before saying to Qin Jinchun: "Grandma asked me to tell the girl, tomorrow morning, the uncle is afraid that he will send someone to pick up the girl's house." This time, the girl couldn't shirk it, and my grandmother asked me to tell the girl that the girl just had to go home with peace of mind, and it was okay. ”
Qin Jinchun was stunned: "What happened?" Previously, Xiao Xue had always privately told her to stay in the long room as much as possible and not to go back to the second room, why did she suddenly change her words tonight?
Cailuo hesitated for a moment, and then said honestly: "After Mrs. came back from the Xue family today, I went to talk to the uncle, and I don't know what the uncle said, which made the wife too angry, scolded the uncle fiercely, and made a fuss to go back to her parents' house, and called the grounded eldest girl." was going to call grandma, but grandma went to persuade peace, but instead of helping his wife pack her luggage, she was scolded by her wife. Mrs. was angry, regardless of our grandmother, she resolutely ordered someone to set up a car, and pulled the eldest girl to go out. Who knew that it was snowing heavily today, the ground was slippery, and the eldest girl didn't hold it, so my wife accidentally fell in the yard, maybe it flashed to her waist, and the pain was so bad that she couldn't walk anymore. The uncle and grandmother carried the wife back into the house and invited the doctor to see her, saying that she wanted to give birth for a few days. ”
Qin Hanzhen, Qin Jinhua, and Qin Jinchun were stunned when they heard it. This is a development that no one expected!
Qin Jinchun hurriedly asked, "Is my grandmother seriously injured?" Is my mother okay?"
Cailuo said: "My wife fell to her waistbone, and the doctor said that if it is not good to give birth, there will be a lot of trouble in the future, and I am afraid that it will be inconvenient for the rest of my life." If my wife does not want to be unable to walk again in the future, she must recuperate for a few months, and it is best not to move easily. The wife couldn't go back to her parents' house, so the uncle let her recuperate at home with peace of mind, and the affairs of the family were handed back to grandma. Now the eldest girl is still grounded, and she can't even get out of the door, and she can't share her grandmother's worries. Grandma felt that the girl should be able to go home with peace of mind. After all, my wife is injured, and my children and grandchildren should be at the bedside. If the girl continues to stay in the long house, I am afraid that there will be gossip outside, which will damage the girl's reputation. Moreover, although grandma's condition is not serious, it still needs to be recuperated. There are many affairs at home, where can she be busy alone? If the girl can't go back to help, I'm afraid that Aunt Fang will not be able to help but recommend herself to the uncle. ”
Qin Jinchun immediately said: "That's not possible. I know, Ming'er's father sent someone, and I'll go back with them. ”
Cailuo breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and also had the leisure to gossip: "Now my wife is lying on the bed, regretting it like something, and complaining that the eldest girl did not help her steadily. The eldest girl complained to her wife, saying that because her wife suddenly pulled her out and didn't give her time to put on a big sweater, she was infected with the wind and cold after a while. The injury on her leg has not healed yet, and now she has added to the disease, and she has to be grounded, which is very sad. The wife was so angry with the eldest girl that the uncle punished the eldest girl for continuing to be grounded, but the wife didn't say a good word for her. This is the first time that the grandparents and grandchildren have made such a big fuss. ”
Qin Jinchun sneered: "I don't want to hear about the big sister." Is she good or bad, and what does it have to do with me?" was a little worried, Aunt Fang was about to move, Xue's was injured and fell, and I don't know if my mother, Xiao Xue, can hold on. As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't wait to fly home immediately, but it was dark and snowy outside, so she could only endure it for the time being and wait for the dawn to speak.
Qin Jinhua reached out to hold her hand a little reluctantly, but he didn't say anything to keep it, but was a little worried about her treatment after she went home: "If you are wronged at home, send someone to tell me." I'm going to beg my grandmother and mother to let you come and relax. Qin Jinchun smiled and took her hand: "Good sister, thank you very much." ”
Qin Hanzhen asked Cailuo with some curiosity: "Why did the second uncle's grandmother and the eldest uncle quarrel? It actually made a fuss to the point that the second uncle and grandmother wanted to take the eldest aunt and eldest sister back to their parents' house?"
