Chapter 106: Goddaughter
Qin Jinyi was speechless for a while. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info She didn't have the face to tell the truth, but if she didn't say it, her grandmother Xue would definitely be angry. What should she do?
Xiao Xue knew her daughter's dilemma, so she took the lead in replying: "It's just a few family words, and I didn't say anything." It's not too early, ma'am, why don't you start eating?"
"What's the hurry?" Xue said angrily, "I just walked, I was sweating, and I was about to rest." He asked his granddaughter again, "What do you talk about with your mother?" but he couldn't believe Xiao Xue's meaning.
Xiao Xue was silent, some things were done too obviously, which would only arouse suspicion. She just hopes that her daughter will be clever and come up with a good excuse.
Qin Jinyi had an idea, and said: "I mentioned it yesterday, the painting spring in the second sister's house was picked up, and later a painting green was added, and the people in the courtyard were as happy as if they were something, but it seemed that they had completely left the painting spring behind, which was really ruthless and unrighteous." I think Huichun is also a decent girl, she can write and draw, the rules are good, and her appearance is good, obviously she didn't make any mistakes, but because she came out of the Wang family, she was thrown out, which is a pity. A few girls in my house, except for the painting building, the others are full, it's really not the same, if you can bring Huichun over. Heng Zhi is a person who doesn't want a long house, let's buy her, and it doesn't take much trouble. When she came to us, the first thing I did was to change her name to Jinhua, so as not to rush the fourth sister. Grandmother, what do you think?"
Xiao Xue never expected that her daughter would come up with such an excuse, she frowned and looked over, her eyes full of disapproval.
Xue Shi laughed when he heard this: "This is a good idea! Jinhua, Jinhua, I don't know what the second girl's face will be when the time comes? But it's useless if she is unhappy! If Huichun becomes a person in our second room, where will it be their turn to criticize them in the long room?!"
Xiao Xue couldn't help but splash cold water: "But Huichun is a person from the long house, how can he come over?"
Xue Shi disagreed: "She has been kicked out, but the second girl doesn't want her there, don't you still allow us to come over in the second room?" said that she is a person from the long room, but our second room has never been separated." Slaves and maids in the long room, can't we call the second room yet?
Xiao Xue sighed: "If it is a child of the Hou Mansion, the second room wants to come over to call, it is nothing, as long as the lady and the second brother and sister have no objections, we want whichever we love." But the painting spring book is not from the Qin family, but from the Wang family to the second nephew's daughter. Now that the second nephew doesn't want her, the Wang family refuses to take it back, and the second brother and sister pushed her to Zhuangzi, without their nod, we can't transfer people over. If the long house sells people, maybe we can buy people back, but the long house doesn't sell people, it just brings the painting spring to the Zhuangzi. Where Huichun will go in the future, it's up to us to decide. ”
Xue's big sense of disappointment: "Changfang just loves to do this kind of thing! There are so many people in the family, they can't use it, so they would rather keep it for nothing than give us a few more." They are all a family, they are all the children and grandchildren of the old marquis, and they are all the maiden relatives of the queen's mother, who is more noble than whom? The long room doesn't take our second room in his eyes, and now even the third room can give us a look. We can't even get a girl, what's the fun?!"
She was angry for a while, and she didn't want to eat anymore, so she left her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, as well as a table full of delicacies that had just been set up, and ran away.
The room finally quieted down, Xiao Xue glanced at his daughter, and his expression was a little stern: "How can you be good, and you want to ask Huichun to come over and summon her?" Don't you know that it is the girl that your second sister drove out? If you want to call someone to your side, you don't look up and look down with your second sister every day, you really think she is a soft pestle, and she will definitely not lose her temper?!"
Qin Jinyi pursed her lips: "The second sister knows that the fourth sister's maiden name is Jinchun, but she has to let the personal girl be called Huichun, and she also takes her around every day, and calls Huichun in front of the fourth sister, and people who don't know think that she is calling the fourth sister! This is obviously looking down on people, and she wants to humiliate us! Since she is rude first, I will return the salute last, give Huichun a name Jinhua, and take it to school every day, see what she says!"
Xiao Xue said angrily: "Huichun has been called her current name since she entered the mansion, but the name of your fourth sister is from your great-grandfather's mother." At the beginning, we didn't mention that there were many girls in the house with the word spring in their names, and your great-grandmother refused to listen to it, and your grandmother didn't take it to heart, so it would be so embarrassing. If the relationship between our second room and the long room is better, it is not difficult to change the names of the girls. But when your grandmother saw Tian'er arguing with the people in the long house, how could they give us this face? I've never taught you this nonsense, where did you learn that?!"
Qin Jinyi disagreed: "I am wronged for my fourth sister and want to be angry for her!
Xiao Xue sneered: "You have always been used to being a good person in front of your sisters, but now you not only want to please Huichun, but also want to change her name to Jinhua, even a fool knows that you don't like your second sister in your heart." Don't really think that your second aunt is so kind, she is really a kind person. If you offend her, if she has the heart to calculate you, where can you prevent it? Not to mention anything else, just if you spread the news that you changed the girl's name, people outside will only say that you are not cowardly, can you still reason with others one by one? Even if you have this patience, I am afraid that outsiders will not say that you have done the right thing. You have some important things to count on Madame, why do you have to offend people?!"
Qin Jinyi was originally very unconvinced, but when she heard the last sentence, she immediately shut up, her face was hot, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.
Indeed, a thousand or ten thousand in her heart can't look down on Changfang, but she doesn't dare to openly reveal her true thoughts at all, and she doesn't dare to really offend Xu, the head of the house. Because, she has a reason why she can't provoke Xu's disgust no matter what......
Qin Jinyi finished her lunch with some confusion, and then returned to the Peach Blossom Pavilion where she lived listlessly. The painting floor still followed her silently, glancing at the girl's back from time to time. There were some things she wanted to ask clearly, but she didn't dare to say them. She's just a girl, what does the girl think about her own family affairs, and where can she ask?
The master and servant walked quietly, and when they passed the path outside Zheguitai and Yan's return, Qin Jinyi stopped again, looked up at the jujube branches sticking out of the wall of Yan's return, and seemed to be startled again.
At this time, the courtyard door creaked open again, but this time it was not the door of Zheguitai, but the door of Yan's return, a mother-in-law and two gorgeously dressed daughters-in-law walked out, and Qin Jinyi walked face to face, and they were stunned by each other.
Qin Jinyi recognized the two daughters-in-law as Yao's subordinates, and the mother-in-law seemed to be the housekeeper of the third room, married to the housekeeper of the third room, Uncle Hu, known as Mama Hu. Qin Jinyi once heard her grandmother say that Uncle Hu's real name was Mohu, and he served by his side as early as when his third uncle Qin Bai was still in the capital as the son of the Houmen. After the Qin family suffered and was rehabilitated, only this Mohu ran away with the third uncle, and he has been loyal and never abandoned for many years. If his grandmother Xue hadn't recognized him, she wouldn't have guessed that the third uncle had returned to the capital back then, and Qin Song, the Marquis of Changfang Chengen, also knew about it. Qin Jinyi admired Uncle Hu's loyalty, and also looked forward to having such a loyal servant by his side, but he was a little upset about Uncle Hu. If he was still in the Hou Mansion, how could he marry a village girl as his wife?
Qin Jinyi couldn't look down on Mama Hu, but she also guessed that she must have come to see the new home for Zhao Mo, nodded casually, and turned around and left.
She didn't hear it, and after their master and servant left, the two daughters-in-law sent by the Yao family chatted with Mama Hu about gossip: "It's strange, why is the eldest girl standing here and not leaving?"
"Maybe it's just passing by. This place is close to Fuguiju and Su Xinzhai, presumably the eldest girl has just had lunch and plans to go back to Taohuaxuan, right?"
"How could it be just passing by?" she was clearly standing there, looking up as if she was looking at something. Are you looking at us? Could it be that you are staring at the courtyard gate where Yan has returned? Speaking of which, the second room seems to be clamoring to clean up the house for Brother Xun. Actually, why bother? I made that before, and now Brother Xun is not yet old, and he still has a year to work hard, so what is there to quarrel about?"
The long room and the second room have not been in harmony for many years, and the second room has a lot to criticize, so the two daughters-in-law gossip about the second room in front of the tiger grandmother in the third room, they really have no scruples, but feel that this is a way to express closeness and prove that they are close to each other like a family. Mama Tiger smiled slightly, occasionally accosting a sentence, and seemed very approachable. The three of them walked all the way back to the Seifukan, and they all felt that their friendship with each other had deepened.
They broke up in front of the Qingfeng Pavilion, and the two daughters-in-law said to Mama Hu: "The house of the young master of the Zhao family, Mama will leave it to us." Our grandmother has already ordered that all furniture and ornaments must be of the highest quality, and no one will be able to pick out whether they are or not! When we are done cleaning up, we will come and tell Grandma, and Grandma will take a look at it herself. If there is anything wrong, Mama just point it out, and we will change it immediately, and we will definitely make your life comfortable. ”
Mama Hu thanked them with a smile, and then stuffed a small purse into each of them: "This is what our wife ordered, the two eldest sisters should take it and drink tea." When Yan returned, he handed it over to the two, I didn't have anything else, just two things, one is as soon as possible, and the other is to be clean. Everything else is fine. ”
The two daughters-in-law repeatedly played the package ticket before leaving. Mama Hu turned around and entered the courtyard to report to Qin Bai, Niu and Zhao Mo.
After finishing speaking, she mentioned by the way that she met Qin Jinyi outside the door of Yan's return.
Qin Bai frowned, and said to Zhao Mo: "You live in the inner house, it's not good at this point, there will always be a time to meet your inner relatives in the future." Brother Jian, a few of them are just down, they are all their own family, and they have a lot less scruples, but you are a foreign man. After a few years, Hanzhen's sisters are a few years older, and there will be more times when they need to be avoided. Luckily, you're still young, so you don't have to worry too much about it for now. When the house next door is empty, you might as well move in. ”
Zhao Mo agreed with a smile. It wasn't a hard decision for him. When he returned from living in Yan, he listened to Qin Bai. The same is true for moving to the new Yongjiahou Mansion. As for the Qin family's daughter-in-law, he didn't pay attention to it at all. In addition to the elder of the Auntie Niu, there is only one female relative in the Qin family who can make him look at it, Qin Hanzhen.
