152 Suddenly
"That's what the third sister gave me, and I won't borrow anyone." Brother Jun'er spoke with his chest up, and he was very cute, and Qiu Ci couldn't help but chuckle.
"The third sister gave you is yours." She smiled, "Brother Jun can love whatever he likes." β
"It's mine, I won't borrow them." Brother Jun muttered.
Then, Huanxi gave him a handful of Dong candy, and he happily followed Huanxi to play.
"I found out about that." He Lingmo said with a straight face, "Third sister, you have been wronged. β
He didn't say anything, but Akiji knew what he was referring to.
Suddenly, she felt a little sad.
It turns out that no one cares about her.
He Lingmo would actually find out the truth of the matter for her, he was much better than her so-called father who loved her and loved her.
At least, he believed her.
Otherwise, how could he have thought of finding out the truth?
"There's nothing wronged." Qiu Ci said, "Second brother, you can believe me, I'm very happy, but the matter has passed, so you don't have to worry about it anymore." β
She didn't care, not because she was generous, but because those people and those things didn't care about her.
It's like if you're walking down the street and a beggar spits on you, or a dog barks at you, can you still spit back on the beggar? Barking back at the dog?
She laughed at that.
He Lingmo was surprised that she could be so calm!
"Why don't I find a way to tell Grandmother SΓΉ ......," He Lingmo said after a moment of silence.
"No need." Qiu Ci said, isn't the old lady still clear about the dispute in the back house? She was reluctant to investigate thoroughly, but also because she valued He Qiuxue.
At the beginning, Qiu Ci was just a stupid lady, and in comparison, Bing Xue's smart He Qiuxue was much more favored than her.
The old lady defended He Qiuxue. A large part of the reason is also because of the cowardice and stupidity of the previous autumn words.
If she is still the same as before, the old lady will naturally still value He Qiuxue.
During this time, Qiu Ci had already figured it out, and if she wanted to gain a firm foothold in the mansion, the first thing she had to do was not to suppress He Qiuxue. It's about letting the old lady see what she's capable of.
A calm and generous. The smart and wise Miss Chang is not valued by any family.
Those two pieces of silk were the first step in her revealing means.
He Lingmo saw that she didn't care. And I won't worry about it anymore.
After a few days of peace, it was the fifth day of the winter month in a blink of an eye.
The sky was gray and hazy these days, there was no sun, but there was no snow. This day was a rare sunny day.
The winter sun was warm, and Autumn moved tables and chairs and placed them in the yard. Pick up the sheep that has been neglected for several days and practice the willow body.
"I heard that the wife of the Jeguo Mansion was given a decree, so I want to hold a big feast, and we have also received a post in the house......
The voices of the maids came from outside.
Qiuji's hand as he wrote paused.
Jekook Mansion?
Isn't it the Yun family?
Thinking of the Yun family, Qiu Ci seemed to have forgotten something.
She thought for a moment. finally remembered, as if she still owed Yun Ming a reply.
But that was a few months ago, so presumably Yun Ming also forgot about it, right?
Just a letter. It also doesn't matter.
That's it.
She raised her hand to re-dip it in the black, and continued to write with her head down.
"Third Miss." Huanxi came over and said. "Sister Daylily is here."
Daylilies are the big maids around Mei's.
"Why is Sister Daylily here?" Qiu Ci saw that it was her, and said with a smile.
"It was the lady who asked the slave to come." Daylily gave her a salute and said with a smile, "Mother Sun made lotus seed soup, and Mrs. said to invite the third lady to taste it too." β
Huanxi quipped, "I don't know how much Mother Sun has made, and we also want to try the lotus seed soup she made." β
Ping'er and Caiwei happened to come over and hear it, and they also said, "Did Mother Sun make something delicious?" We're going to taste it too. β
"Just know how to eat, eat, eat." Qinglan walked over from behind, and one of them gave them a burst chestnut, "Are you done with the work?" Lazy here! β
Cai Wei and Ping'er glanced at each other, stuck out their tongues and quickly walked away.
Autumn words.
"Okay, you go and sue Mother, I'll be right away." She said to Daylily.
Qiu Ci drank a bowl of lotus seed soup at Mei's place, Xu is Sun's mother doesn't know how to do it, the lotus seed soup she made is sticky and sweet, and Qiu Ci doesn't like to drink it very much.
She doesn't like anything that is too sticky, and if it's cool, she does.
"The Jeguo Mansion handed over the post, and a banquet will be held in the mansion in a few days." Mei Shi saw that she put the bowl, so he told her about the affairs of the house, "The old lady just found me and asked me to take you and Qiuxue over......"
Qiu's heart sank.
Such a scene, let Mei take a concubine out?
Does it mean that the old lady looks up to He Qiuxue, or does she look up to the Hou Mansion too much?
Fortunately, she was not stupid enough to let Mei take Aunt Liu with her.
Such a scene, no matter how much attention is paid to an aunt in the house, an aunt should not be allowed to come forward.
Of course, concubines should not go either.
It's just that this is what the old lady meant, so no matter what it shouldn't be, it must become what it should be.
"And what does Mother mean?" Qiu Ji asked suddenly.
As the head of the house, Mei has the right to speak, at least, to give opinions.
Mei obviously didn't expect her to ask such a question, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"What do I mean?" She wondered, "That's what the old lady meant......"
In other words, she has no right to express any opinion.
Autumn words will understand.
Mei was still the same as before, she was afraid of the old lady.
"Mother." Qiu Ci straightened his face and said, "You are the serious lady of the Hou Mansion, and you don't need to come forward in person to welcome the arrival in the mansion, if you are in need, you can sue the old lady." β
Qiu Ci is a euphemism to tell her that she can make some not too much of a request to the old lady.
Bringing a concubine to a banquet in the Guogong Mansion is unreasonable in itself, and she can completely refuse.
ββ¦β¦ I don't need anything either. Mei said, "The public has allocated money to buy gifts, and it is enough." β
She still didn't understand.
Qiu Ci had to say it clearly, "Have you ever seen a lady in a mansion who would take a concubine to the Guogong Mansion to attend a banquet?" β
Mei was stunned.
She looked at Qiu Ci blankly, and after a while, she raised her head and looked at Mother Sun helplessly.
Although she has been married for almost three years, she is only in her early twenties, and she lost her mother at an early age, no one has taught her anything, and she is ignorant about the affairs of the inner house.
Now that she heard Qiu Ci say this, she didn't know what to do.
"Miss Three has a point." Mother Sun reacted and said, "Madame can go without Miss Four." β
"Isn't that a crime of abusing a concubine?" Mei Shizi thought of this and was very worried.
She didn't understand anything else, but she knew that she couldn't treat any girl in the mansion badly, they were all the daughters of the Hou Mansion.
"Mother can go and ask the eldest aunt first, will she bring the eldest sister and the second sister together?" Qiu Ji reminded her.
That's right, go to Dongfu and ask Li Yi, if she doesn't bring a concubine, then she doesn't need to bring He Qiuxue!
Mei suddenly realized, as if he had found a guiding light. (To be continued.) )
