Chapter 39: Entering the House

Approaching the capital, there were more people on the official road. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoQin Yan and Nianxi lay on the window of the car and looked out curiously through the gap in the curtain.

Qiu Ju came over and pulled the curtain: "Daughter's family, you can't show your face like this." ”

Qin E said: "Let them take care of it, and no one cares about the left and right." ”

Qiu Ju said: "I've seen all the way, and I don't see enough of them." ”

Qin E smiled slightly, but her heart was full of pain. The two children, who were in the square courtyard all day long, came out for the first time, and saw everything fresh, and they couldn't see enough of it.

Dongmei is not like Qiu Ju, she can't look at it as recklessly as Nian Xi and Qin Yan, so she shrinks behind the heads of the two of them and follows the excitement.

Suddenly, she exclaimed: "It's the city gate, let's go to the capital!"

The second mother and Qiu Ju were shocked when they heard this, and they didn't care about any physique, so they both lifted the crack and looked out.

Qin E glanced out and saw that the blue brick fortress was the north city wall.

Although no one in the family in front of them was looking forward to their return, they couldn't help but cheer.

Qin E lowered her head, her eyes fell on the silver bracelet on her left wrist, and she remembered Meng Jingke's words before separation.

"I still have things to do, so I'll go back to Beijing first. I'll leave the Black Seven to protect you secretly, and you can find him for anything on the way. ”

"You put this bracelet away, it's hollowed out inside, and you can put a note. If you have something urgent to find me, send him to the Tongyuan pawnshop, and I will know. ”

Qin E touched the pattern on the bracelet, this is the pattern of a phoenix peony, and the mechanism is in the stamen of the peony flower. A small point, no one can guess if you don't know, as long as you use your fingernails to pull hard, you can break the bracelet from it.

She hid the four thousand taels of silver tickets that Meng Jingke had given at the beginning.

She had returned it to Meng Jingke, but Meng Jingke refused to accept it. "Isn't my life worth four thousand taels?"

Qin E knew that he didn't want to embarrass himself, so he accepted it quickly.

Only she knows that these four thousand taels are their life-saving money, and they are the foundation for several of them to return to Qin Mansion to live in peace.

The second grandmother is old, and when she saw the excitement, she retracted her thoughts and looked at Qin E.

"Miss, are you really going back in this?"

Along the way, the second grandmother has asked her many times, and she has an answer every time.

"Just wear this one. ”

The second grandmother sighed a little uneasily.

Qin E knew what she was worried about, according to common sense, Old Madam Qin was still there, and she and Qin Yan should not wear filial piety clothes.

In the last life, she listened to the request of the second steward who came to pick her up, took off her filial piety clothes, and changed into plain clothes to enter the house.

As a result, she was named unfilial, she didn't even drink a sip of water, and was punished by the old lady to kneel in the ancestral hall for a day and a night.

There was no fire in the ancestral hall, and she knelt for a long time before she passed out from the cold. lingering on the sickbed, you can only get out of bed when it is almost summer.

Since then, she has earned the title of a sick ghost.

Qin E stroked the hem of her snow-white clothes, no matter what she did, the old lady would not let her go. That being the case, why should she swallow her anger and seek compromise?

She doesn't let herself feel better, and she doesn't let her be happy.

The carriage went on for another while, and then came to a slow stop.

A voice outside said, "Miss, we're here." ”

This time, Qin E stuffed five taels of silver to the second steward who came to the funeral, and the second steward was kind to them, and the journey was very smooth.

Sure enough, money can make the devil grind.

Qin E sneered, Aunt Fang has been relying on a lot of money for so many years, isn't she just relying on a lot of money to bring the Qin family up and down to be obedient?

Now that she also has silver, she wants to see if Aunt Fang can still sing a one-man show in this Qin Mansion.

The second grandmother and the others all restrained their emotions and got out of the carriage one after another. Dongmei raised the curtain, Qin E put a cloak on Qin Yan, pulled up her hood, and said softly: "No matter who says anything for a while, don't be afraid, there is a sister in everything." ”

After Shen's death, Qin Yan seemed to grow up overnight, and said sensibly: "Sister, don't worry, Yan'er is not afraid." ”

Qin E touched her head with relief, put on the upper hood of the cloak, and led her out of the car.

Looking up slightly, I saw a pair of stone lions in front of the vermilion gate majestic, a black lacquer horizontal plaque on the door eyebrow, vigorously and vigorously written "Qin Mansion" two big characters painted with gold, which is the word that Emperor Taizu inscribed to the ancestors of the Qin family.

The corner door opened from the inside, and the second steward muttered a few words to the person who opened the door, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he smiled at Qin E: "Eldest lady is going here, I'll send you in." ”

Qin E sneered under the hood, sure enough, it was the same as in the previous life.

The second mother and the others were not as expected by Qin E, and they were very indignant in their hearts. Dongmei's mouth was fast, and she muttered: "The two young ladies are back home, why don't they even have a steward to greet them?"

According to the rules, it should be the steward who picks up the person, sends the person to the second gate, and then changes the housekeeper's mother to lead it.

The second steward took the money, ignored it, and said politely: "I'll send the ladies in, and they're all the same." ”

How can this be the same!Dong Mei was about to refute when she heard this, but was stopped by Qin E.

"Let's go inside. ”

The second grandmother tightened her face and helped Qin E to enter the door first.

Qiu Ju and Dongmei glanced at each other, and the joy of returning to Beijing disappeared, and they cheered up to deal with it.

Walk all the way to the Hanging Flower Gate, and this time someone finally greeted you. When the second steward saw someone, he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly explained to Qin E and the others, and the cat ran away.

Waiting in the weeping flower door is a very high-status grandmother.

She couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw Qin E and Qin Yan wearing snow-white filial piety clothes, holding the Shen family's spiritual position in their hands, but quickly stabilized her mood and said: "The old slave welcomes the two young ladies back to the house, the two young ladies have worked hard all the way, it is better to wash up first, and then it is not too late to visit the old lady." ”

Qin E couldn't help but look up at her, and saw that this person had a round face, a slightly chubby figure, and a pair of smiling eyes, very kind and easy-going.

It turned out to be Mama Lin next to the old lady.

Qin E was surprised in her heart, there were two first-class grandmothers beside the old lady, one was surnamed Wei, and the other was Mama Lin in front of her.

In the previous life, it was Mama Wei who came to pick them up, and that person was mean and snobbish, and he helped the old lady do some hated evil things, which gave them a lot of suffering.

Why did you change it to Mama Lin this time?

Mama Lin is sleek, she can speak well from top to bottom, and the little girls like her. The old lady has lived in a mess all her life, and the only thing she can carry clearly is to use the right Mama Lin.

In any case, Qin E accepted Mama Lin's kind reminder.

Qin E raised her hood and said politely to her: "Thank you for reminding her, but we haven't seen our grandmother for a long time, and if we want to kowtow to her old man as soon as possible, let's go see her old man first." ”

Mama Lin looked at Qin E and was stunned, speechless for a long time, and finally sighed lightly, looking at Qin E's eyes very complicated.

"In this case, the eldest lady will please go with the old slave. ”

Qin E secretly wondered, how could this Mama Lin see herself, as if she had seen through the red dust?

didn't have to think about it, a few people followed Mama Lin all the way, and met the maids and women in each room on the way, and were pointed at by them curiously.

Needless to say, Qiu Ju and Dongmei have been big girls. As soon as they entered the house, the grandeur of the former housewife and the big maid was sufficient, and their appearance was excellent, and as soon as they walked in the courtyard, they immediately aroused layers of discussions.

Those voices and gazes, which were either jealous or amazed, were very different from the ridicule and ridicule of the previous life.

Qin E's face was hidden in the hood, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned.

In the previous life, Qiu Ju had a scar on her forehead, and Dong Mei was lame. They went all the way to the dust, haggard and emaciated into the house, where can they compare to the grandeur of this life.

Everything is getting better and everything is going to get better!

Walking to the courtyard of Old Madam Qin without squinting, Mama Lin politely left the second lady and the others: "Everyone, wait in the pantry, I will accompany the two young ladies in." ”

When the curtain was lifted and the house was entered, the heat and aroma came to the face.

Qin E took a deep breath of this long-lost extravagance, held the Shen spirit seat in one hand, and pulled Qin Yan in the other, and followed Mama Lin into the warm pavilion inside.

Mama Wei rushed over to block them: "Presumptuous, how can you hold the spiritual position and enter the old lady's room in filial piety clothes?"

Qin E seemed to have expected it, and before she rushed over, she had already pulled Qin Yan a few steps to the middle of the house, and said loudly: "Granddaughter Qin E, Qin Yan, meet grandmother!"
