Chapter 108: Refusal
A few days later, Zhao Xin received a thank you gift from the old man Yin Xu's house in Linyang City, and there was also a post that the old lady liked her very much and asked her to play in the house in her free time and accompany the old lady to relieve her boredom.

At this time, Zhao Xin knew that the old lady who was treated was the mother of Master Yin Xu of Linyang City Mansion, and since the other party had made a post, he couldn't help but go. So according to Mrs. Xu's physical condition, Zhao Xin made some snacks and camellia as his heart, and chose to visit Mrs. Xu in the Xu Mansion on an afternoon a few days later.
Mrs. Xu was enjoying the shade in the back garden, and when she heard the report from her subordinates, she hurriedly asked someone to lead Zhao Xin over. Zhao Xin was still a little nervous, but when he saw the old lady's amiable appearance, he gradually relaxed, and chatted while massaging the old lady.
Although Zhao Xin is not too talkative, after Mama Qin's teaching these days, she has been able to deal with it freely, well-behaved and likable, and Mrs. Xu is very happy.
Not long after, Mrs. Xu also came over with her daughter, that is, the eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter of the old lady. Zhao Xin wanted to retire, but Mrs. Xu didn't agree, and it didn't matter if outsiders didn't see her, so Zhao Xin had to stay.
Mrs. Xu and Miss Xu didn't have any arrogance, and after politely greeting Zhao Xin a few words, the topic was introduced to the old lady, and the old lady laughed, Zhao Xin only needed to echo two sentences from time to time next to him.
In this way, he finally stayed up until the evening, Zhao Xin found a time to speak and said goodbye again, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu exchanged glances, and asked people to bring out a pair of red plum and gold silk hollow beads to give to her.
The Zhao family is small, and Zhao Xin doesn't have many jewelry, but she can still see the preciousness of the pair of beads.
Zhao Xinfu saluted and said: "It is the honor of the little girl to be loved by the old lady, but this pair of pearl flowers is too precious for the little girl to accept." ”
Mrs. Xu said with a smile next to her: "Since you can make the old lady happy, it shows that Miss Zhao's contribution is not small, and the old lady is willing to give it to you, so you can accept it." ”
Old Lady Xu couldn't stop nodding.
Zhao Xin insisted: "The old lady is in good health, and the lady is filial, naturally it is a long life, and it is a great thing for the little girl to be able to get the old lady's favor, how can you ask for the old lady's things again?" This must not be wanted. ”
Old Madam Xu gradually sank her face with Zhao Xin's words.
Mrs. Xu listened to it but looked at Zhao Xin, this pair of Zhuhua will cost fifty taels of silver, and the Zhao family can't say that there is none, but it is definitely a large amount. Moreover, Zhao Xin may not have touched such high-quality jewelry.
In the future, the two of them will inevitably have to live under the same roof, and it is much better to be unmoved when they see the heavy courtesy, than to be shallow-eyed.
Mrs. Xu hurriedly said: "Mother likes such an ambitious woman the most, and my mother's vision is really the best." In this case, let's not force Miss Zhao, and the future will be long. ”
The old lady was noncommittal when she heard this, and sent someone to send Zhao Xin out of the Xu Mansion.
Mrs. Xu also sent her daughter away, comforting the old lady and said: "Mother don't be impatient, the Zhao family is just a doctor, this great blessing has fallen on them, it's too late to be happy, how can there be other thoughts?" ”
Old Madam Xu snorted and said, "What I sent, there are still people who dare not want it?" ”
Mrs. Xu laughed and said: "Mother, you choose a daughter-in-law, who wants to extend the heirs for your uncle and manage the backyard, do you like those who are open-minded?" This Zhao girl is ambitious and well-educated, and her future children will not be bad, do you think this is the reason? ”
When Mrs. Xu heard this, her face was a little pale, but she still said unhappily: "If it weren't for the unconscious fancy to it, don't even think about her family background!" ”
This is also what Mrs. Xu considered, Zhao Xin has no family background, and she is simple-minded, even if her husband loves her, she can't make big waves.
Mrs. Xu followed the old lady's words and said: "Yes, the most important thing is that the uncle likes it, so that the young couple can live a harmonious and beautiful life." And you look at Miss Zhao's upbringing, although she is not particularly outstanding, she is not worse than that woman with a good family background. When they get married, you just wait to hold your grandson! ”
The main thing is the son's ......
This girl from the Zhao family entered the door, not afraid that she would not care.
His father's medical skills are loud in Lezhou, for the happiness of this precious daughter, can he not dig out his heart and lungs?
Thinking of this, Old Madam Xu's face also softened: "You can find someone to ask again, if it's nothing, find someone to deliver a message to the Zhao family." Erlang is not too young, and I will try to get things done before the end of the year, and I can explain to your father if I have a son and a half daughter. ”
"Yes, my daughter-in-law will send someone to do it, and you just wait to hear the good news."
Not long after Zhao Xin entered the back garden, he had that feeling of uneasiness again, and when he left, not only did it not disappear, but it became heavier. It wasn't until I got into the carriage at the second gate that I felt better, and when I walked out of Xu's mansion, I was relieved that there was the noise of the people on the street outside the car.
Mama Qin noticed Zhao Xin's nervousness, and patted her hand, frustrated that she was a little calm. Zhao Xin saw Mama Qin's calm appearance, his heart was more steady, and he leaned on the wall of the car tiredly.
After returning to Zhao's house to freshen up, Zhao Xin sent all the people around him out, leaving Mama Qin and said, "Mama, what do you think of this today?" ”
"Something is wrong today, what does the girl think?"
"He said that he invited me to come over to the house to accompany the old lady to relieve her boredom, but I think every word the old lady said has a deep meaning, and every question is like a test. Although Mrs. Xu was coaxing the old lady to be happy, she ...... "but she also seemed to be observing her." Zhao Xin couldn't say this, she didn't think she had that much face.
But the feeling of unease made it impossible for her to ignore.
"The girl is right, Mrs. Xu is not a boring person at all. This matter should be discussed with the master, and then someone should be sent to inquire about the situation in the Xu Mansion, so that we can know what they want to do, and then think of countermeasures. ”
The Xu family didn't let them guess for too long, and after a few days, they asked the master of the government to deliver a message to Mr. Zhao, who refused on the pretext that the people in the countryside were vulgar and did not dare to climb the old man's house in the mansion.
Of course, the Xu family would not give up, and after listening to the master's reply, he was furious and didn't say anything, and sent someone to Qiu's house to run again, asking the Qiu family to come forward to exert pressure.
But at this time, Mr. Zhao heard that the younger brother of Master Yin Xu of Linyang City Mansion spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, slept in flowers and willows, and was romantic, and he was already a half-sick man whose body was hollowed out, and he did not agree to this family affair no matter what.
After all, Mr. Zhao is the doctor of Baozhitang, and the Qiu family can't do too much, otherwise wouldn't it make the followers feel cold? (To be continued.) )
