Chapter 6: The Suspicion of Congratulatory Gifts

On this side, Xu wept at Qin Ji.

Qin Ji anxiously paced back and forth in the pavilion and persuaded: "Don't cry anymore, since you gave birth to two daughters in a row, you are destined to have today." Besides, entering the palace is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

Xu Shi choked and said: "I married into your family at the age of fifteen, and I saw how Qin Pu grew up, her every meal, every meal, every word and deed was carefully adjusted, and she was raised according to the standards of the princess since she was a child." Who knows, it's only been a year since I was sent to the royal family, and it's gone, how can you tell me to rest assured that my daughter will have a relationship with the royal family again. ”

"This is what you think of a woman, and if you choke to death when you eat, does everyone choke to death when you eat?" Qin Ji reprimanded, "I'm afraid you don't know the current situation, I'll be honest with you, my recent life in office has not been easy, the capital has sent someone to check the accounts of the Weaving Bureau, if I am finished, Qin Quan will be finished, and the Qin family will be finished." ”

Xu was still sobbing, and Qin Ji saw that she didn't listen to the advice, so he brushed his sleeves and left, calling Qixia to go in and serve. Qi Xia comforted Xu with kind words for a long time, and then gradually stopped.

The silk and bamboo in the vestibule rang for an afternoon, and Qin Chun ordered some lively scenes, she applauded frequently, and she looked very happy. Qin Lun stared at Qin Chun's silhouette, silent in his heart, he only hoped that his sister could be like this every day, and he would not hesitate to do so.

At night, Qin Ji and Xu went to Qin Lun's room.

Qin Lun laughed with him for a day, his face was stiff, Curly Cao was washing her face with hot water, Qin Lun took water to wash himself in front of the copper basin, and Curly Cao stood behind her and held her hair.

Lianzhu waited for the second elder to sit down, and made another pot of hot tea.

Before Qin Lun finished washing his face, Xu couldn't sit still, drove away the curly grass, personally stepped forward to hold Qin Lun's hair, and personally handed over the towel.

"Mother's ......" Qin Lun's lips opened slightly, and Xu's eyes were red again.

Although Qin Ji couldn't bear it, but now the overall situation is still important, otherwise the family will not be complete, so he called the two of them to sit down at the round table, and said, "Lun'er, you will go to Beijing with Mrs. Wu the day after tomorrow." I'll prepare something for you overnight with your mother, and you can tell me what you want. So far, you can only blame your father for his incompetence, and the future road will depend on you. ”

Qin Lun knows the inside story, he has to enter the palace, otherwise the Qin Mansion will inevitably be in turmoil, and send a concubine to settle down, Qin Lun is willing.

"Father and mother, don't worry, after I go to Beijing, I will naturally have my uncle and uncle to take care of me, then Mrs. Wu looks like a kind person, and when the time comes, you don't have to worry too much if someone helps me."

Qin Ji frowned and said: "This is exactly what I want to tell you, Lun'er, you have to remember that although Mrs. Wu is good, there are no forever good people in the world, only eternal interests." When you go to the capital, you must not trust others, and you must guard against others. ”

"Yes." Xu continued, "Your aunt was so careful back then, but she still died. If you go to the capital, as long as you protect yourself, don't come out. ”

Qin Lun nodded, as soon as he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, Qin Pu's unexpected death was a pain in the hearts of everyone in the Qin Mansion, once he was bitten by a snake, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years.

Qin Ji and Xu told Qin Lunqian, and the three of them chatted until late at night, and Xu was about to cry for a while when he said two words......

The light in Old Madam Qin's room has not been extinguished, and she called Qi Xia over and asked:

"You all think I'm old, and everything is perfunctory! When I can't lie in the coffin in the next day, you will also fold me and throw me in! ”

Qi Xia was so frightened that she knelt on the ground with a "plop", kowtowed, and said, "Old lady, if you say that, you are killing me with a knife." ”

"Then you don't say it quickly!" Old Madam Qin used her crutches to desperately pestle the green bricks on the ground.

"Qi Xia knows that the affairs in the house can't be hidden from the old lady." Qi Xia knelt down and said, "I really don't know a word about the old lady, but I just heard that this time seems to be extraordinary, and the old man hasn't slept for several months." ”

"Bastard!" Old Madam Qin drank Qixia, "These big vernacular words are also used by you to sue you now!" ”

Qi Xia knelt on the ground, her body shaking.

Old Madam Qin continued: "Actually, I don't have to ask you, just ask my unassuming son." But if I go and ask him, he will make up a nonsense to prevaricate me, and I won't bother him with that! ”

Qi Xia's waist was weak, and she threw herself on the ground and kowtowed, she knew that Qin Lun's entry into the palace had already made such a big fuss, and the old lady Qin was sure that she couldn't hide it in front of her, the old lady and the old lady actually knew it, but they both cared about each other and pretended to be confused.

"I say, I say!" Qi Xia kowtowed, "But please don't be angry with the old lady!" I just heard that this time it was the second master who offended people in Beijing and offended the concubine, and the eldest master of my family was affected by the second master, so he ......"

"And so it was!"

Old Madam Qin sat down on the couch and muttered for a long time, then tremblingly pointed to the congratulatory gifts that were still stacked on the table and said, "Knowing the son Mo Ruo's mother, my sons are filial. It's just that the second child of my family knows that he knows how to read hard, but he is just an elm pimple who can speak sour words, and I want him to give me these cordyceps sinensis and ejiao, but I am afraid that it is more difficult than the flowering of iron trees. It must have been the boss who added a lot of money in private, just to make me happy! ”

"Old lady, you already knew?" Qi Xia raised her head.

"How could you not know?" Old Madam Qin seemed to be talking to herself, "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon." If your lord hadn't done more and added the second child's congratulatory gift to such a beautiful place, I wouldn't have doubted them. It's just that when I looked at this congratulatory gift yesterday, I knew that Qin Quan must have stabbed the basket in the capital again. When my father was still alive, he was chased by his father with a stick and struck a few times. ”

Qi Xia kowtowed again, and Old Madam Qin sighed again and again.

Early the next morning, several truckloads of things were piled up in the courtyard, all of which were prepared for Qin Lun to enter Beijing.

Qin Yu hurried from the remote mansion early in the morning, and when he saw Qin Ji, he asked, "Sister really wants to enter the palace?" ”

Since Qin Yu married a wife and had a daughter, he was not on good terms with the Xu family because of his unstable temperament and scheming. Qin Ji ordered them to move to a remote mansion to live, out of sight and out of mind. On his birthday the day before yesterday, Qin Yu took care of it for a day, and yesterday Qin Ji let him rest in the mansion for a day.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Qin Yu asked.

Qin Yu stepped on a pair of pitch-black cloth shoes, wore a light blue gown, combed his hair in a bun on his head, tied his hair with white jade, his face was like a full moon, his temples were like a knife cut, and his aura was lofty.

Qin Ji and Qin Yu walked around in the courtyard, and Qin Ji asked in a low voice, "Your daughter-in-law still doesn't know about the affairs of the family, right?" ”

Qin Yu shook his head: "Naturally, I didn't let her know." It's just that if my sister wants to enter the palace, the Cao family will definitely not be able to hide it. How can I get rid of this family business? ”

Qin Ji looked up at the sky, stopped and said, "I'm also worried about this matter." ”

"What's bothering?"

A majestic voice came from behind him, and Qin Lun and Qin Yu looked back and saw that it was none other than Old Madam Qin.

Qin Yu hurriedly bent down and bowed: "Grandmother." ”

With the support of the girl, the old lady Qin sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard, and Qin Yu bowed down and added an embroidered futon to the stone bench, afraid of freezing the old lady.

"I have a plan for the Cao family's retirement, and I will tell you about it." Old Madam Qin said.
