Qin E knew that her trip was very dangerous, and it was very likely that she would not be able to come back, and she was very worried about Shen and Qin Yan in her heart. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 But they also know that if they don't take this risk, what awaits them will be an even greater disaster.

Qin E made up her mind, so she no longer hesitated, and immediately started to prepare. She first found Qiu Ju and Dong Mei to explain all the affairs of the family in detail.

said to Qiu Ju: "Don't go to Mama Li to pick up the job again." ”

Qiu Ju nodded frustratedly, feeling a little sorry in her heart. Although the money is small, it is also income after all. But they work so hard, but they only have to do it so little, and it's no wonder that the eldest lady refuses to do it again.

Before I finished thinking about it, I heard Qin E say again: "You wait for her to take the initiative to come to you, and then talk to her about the price." ”

Qiu Ju was very surprised.

Qin E said lightly: "She dares to deduct like this, but she sees that you are short of money and there is nothing she can do." But she tasted the sweetness, how could she just forget it. When she has a job in her hands, if you don't go to her, she will come to you in a hurry, and then you can raise the price with her!" Qin E looked at Qiu Ju with a smile: "You pull Dongmei up and let her shout." ”

Dongmei raised her willow eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, Miss, Qiu Ju is soft and doesn't dare to speak, I'm not afraid of her." As long as she comes, I will have to let this miser who eats grape skins spit out a piece of gold. ”

Qin E chuckled, took the money to Qiu Ju, and said, "You keep this money, and after two days, the monthly rules in the clan will be distributed, and you will leave some for daily chewing, and take the rest to Aunt Mei, and ask her to help us buy some silver charcoal and rice noodles back." ”

Aunt Mei is the mother-in-law sent by the clan to send them monthly silver, food and clothing, she talks very little, and she leaves after finishing her errands, and she is not familiar with them. But in the previous life, Dongmei disappeared, but she went into the mountain to carry back Dongmei, who broke her leg. Without her, Dongmei would have frozen to death on the mountain.

It was also after this incident that Qin E knew that this Aunt Mei was a kind-hearted person who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

Qiu Ju was puzzled: "What are we doing with so much money to buy these? Although we have few things, it is enough to save some, so why spend money." ”

Qin E said: "This year's weather is a little abnormal, suddenly so cold, I'm afraid it will be even colder later." We still stock up on more coals and rice noodles just in case, so that we won't be able to buy them later. ”

Qiu Ju still wanted to persuade again, but Qin E said categorically: "This matter is decided, Aunt Mei is in charge of our monthly share, asking her to buy it back, and sending things in is not eye-catching, and Mama Xing and Mama Li don't dare to deduct it." ”

Qiu Ju didn't want to say anything, but she was still a little worried, and couldn't help but say: "We don't know Aunt Mei well, I don't know if she will help us, and people don't know if it's reliable." ”

Qin E said in a firm tone: "Aunt Mei is a cold-faced and hot-hearted person, she will definitely agree to help us." You can also get closer to her in the future. ”

In the previous life, they never cut off the supply, but now that I think about it, I am afraid that Aunt Mei is kind-hearted and has never detained them, and even dealt with them a lot.

It can't be wrong to entrust her with the shopping.

Qiu Ju still muttered a little in her heart, but she didn't say anything more.

Qin E and the two of them sorted out the cage again, and explained what things they took to exchange money if they were short of money. He repeatedly told them that the weather was not good, and told them to pay attention to Shen and Qin Yan, and not to freeze until they were hungry.

After finishing the instructions for a while, he went to see Shen and Qin Yan again. Shen's spirit is not good, Qin E is afraid that the careful second grandmother will see the clue, so she only repeatedly told her to take care of Shen, and let her pay attention to safety, let Dongmei and Qiu Ju run errands if there is something, and don't go out when the weather is bad.

Qin E called Nianxi again and explained to her: "No matter what happens at home, you have to guard Yan'er every step of the way." ”

Seeing her nod heavily, Fang Fang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

When the cold weather slowed down and the dark sky was blue, Qin E knew that the day had come to enter the mountain. After beating the drum of the fourth watch that night, she quietly got up, took a closer look at Qin Yan, who was sleeping heavily, by the moonlight, covered Nian Xi with a quilt, got up from the kang lightly and put it on, put the prepared backpack on her back, put a letter written early in the morning on the pillow, and slipped out of the door with a woodcutter from the firewood room.

Qin E took advantage of the moonlight to touch all the way to the northwest corner of the back cover room, and pulled out a dog hole in a corner full of debris, and the cat crawled out. Reflexively covered the hole with something and crawled out of the grass one person high.

A set of movements is smooth and neat. Qin E looked at the dog hole that was so covered that she couldn't find traces, and remembered the entanglement between the previous life and Dongmei when she drilled the dog hole for the first time, and only felt that the vicissitudes of the world, cause and effect, were interlocking, making people in awe of fate and reincarnation.

The old mansion is located in the middle of nowhere, and the twilight around it is dull and silent at this moment, just like the mystery and unfathomability of fate, which makes Qin E suddenly feel a trace of timidity in her heart.

Qin E looked at the mottled wall a little suddenly, and actually felt a kind of nostalgia and dependence on the family she emotionally rejected.

The ancestor of the Qin family in the capital was a poor scholar back then, and the so-called old mansion was just a small courtyard with three entrances. Later, the ancestors were angry and strong, and finally they entered the cabinet and saved the family business, which was the foundation of the Qin family in the capital. After that, the Qin family produced five jinshi in two generations, gradually opened up the situation in the officialdom, and gained a firm foothold in the capital. By the generation of Qin E's great-grandfather, the Qin family had become a famous family in the capital.

In order to let future generations of descendants be diligent and thrifty, and not be blinded by the wealth and wealth, the ancestors left the ancestral teachings, and the old mansion of the Qin family in Liaodong was not allowed to be expanded or sold, so the old mansion of the Qin family has always maintained the simplicity and simplicity of the year for several generations. When future generations return to their hometown in Liaodong, they must live in the ancestral house and recall the hardships of their ancestors.

The last time the old house was renovated was when my grandfather was alive, and before they moved in, the family was thinking about repairing the old house, but they moved in, and no one talked about it anymore. Now, it has not been repaired and maintained for nearly ten years, and the walls are overgrown with weeds, revealing a dilapidated and decadent appearance.

When my grandfather took over the family business, although the Qin family was still full of flowers, the people were not prosperous. Although there are also a few jinshi, their qualifications are mediocre, and they don't have too many achievements, and everyone knows in their hearts that the Qin family will have no seats in the court within thirty years. Until the Shen family married in, he gave the Qin family, or Qin Yun, a way out.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven.

Qin E remembered that Qin Yun had exchanged himself for the official position of Zheng Sanpin, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, and the reluctance that had just risen was immediately gone.

If the ancestors knew that their descendants sold their daughters for glory, I don't know if they would jump out of the grave in anger.

Qin E straightened her sleeves, took one last deep look at the old mansion, and resolutely turned her head and walked towards the dark mountain shadow in the distance.
