A few people exchanged pleasantries and started to get down to business. On the same day, several people discussed it, and finalized the skirt style to be worn in the first competition of Hanyue, Jin Niang measured the size, and Jin Xin was responsible for drawing the sample.

Next, Jin Xin and Jin Niang will make a special trip to deal with it, and then send it to Hanyue when it is ready.

After the general things were agreed, Han Yue left first, and Jin Xin stayed for a while because he had other follow-up things to explain.

When you get busy, you will find that time flies very fast.

When Jin Xin came out of the Liang Embroidery Workshop, it was already dark.

It's autumn, and the air naturally has a bit of coolness, and when the sky gets dark, the coolness gets a little worse with the night.

The sedan chair moved quickly in the night, and soon arrived at the place.

The sedan chair stopped at the corner near the hanging flower door.

Jin Xin got off the sedan chair, and just after walking a few steps, he saw a group of people walking out of the hanging flower gate.

Jin Xin's footsteps were fixed there for a while.

On the opposite side, two maids walked in front of them with lanterns, Jin Shanqiao and her personal maid Pink walked behind, and behind them, there were a group of maids and women with lanterns.

Jin Xin stood there, watched Jin Shanqiao get closer, and greeted: "Third sister." ”

If in the past, when he saw Jin Xin, this Jin Shanqiao would definitely not hesitate to give people a taunt, but now Jin Shanqiao did not say a word unusually, but he glanced at Jin Xin in a hurry, and then walked to the side of his sedan chair.

A mother-in-law walked to the sedan chair and said to Jin Shanqiao in a serious voice: "Third Miss, if you relax, don't be too sad, after a day or two, it will be good if each other is angry." ”

Jin Shanqiao ignored the mother-in-law, and angrily instructed Taohong: "What are you doing stupidly, don't let people get up in the sedan chair and go back!" ”

Peach hurriedly instructed the palanquin man, and the group quickly disappeared into the night.

Jin Xin was a little stunned there, and felt that something was wrong with this Jin Shanqiao.

The woman who had just sent Jin Shanqiao to the sedan chair turned around, and then saw Jin Xin, stunned, and then, with a slightly arrogant attitude, leaned forward slightly, and said, "Fifth Miss, are you back?" ”

Jin Xin recognized that this mother-in-law's surname was Zhao, she was the eldest lady, and she was also Jin Shanqiao's nurse, because she was old and a nurse, she had always been arrogant, except for a few masters in her own yard, no one looked down on her.

Jin Xin looked at her arrogant posture, and didn't bother to bother with her, so he only asked: "I just saw that the third sister's eyes seem to be a little red, she looked like she had cried, what's wrong, did you encounter anything difficult in the Wang family?" ”

Aunt Zhao pursed the corners of her mouth disdainfully, and replied with a smile: "What kind of red eyes?" Miss Five is wrong, right? How can our third lady cry when she is so good? ”

Grandma Zhao squinted her eyes slightly and looked at Jin Xin with a squint.

Jin Xin was so excited by her eyes that she was unhappy, and frowned slightly: "Oh, it's okay." Ziqin, let's go. ”

"Yes, miss."

According to the usual practice, Jin Xin still went to greet the old lady first before returning to himself.

After changing his clothes, when he was having dinner, Jin Xin remembered Jin Shanqiao, so he asked Zhang's mother: "I saw the third sister when I just came, she looks very bad, is she not feeling well or what's wrong?" ”

Mother Zhang came closer and whispered, "Miss, be careful when you talk next, don't mention Miss Three lightly." ”

Jin Xin was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

"I just heard it from Qiqi, saying that the third aunt seems to be taking a break from the third lady."

Jin Xin was stunned, "How come?" Doesn't it mean that the relationship between the couple has always been very good, and the third brother-in-law loves the third sister very much? ”

"Isn't it? Everyone was surprised. I heard that the third lady came crying today, staying in the eldest lady's house, crying is crying all day, if it wasn't for the eldest lady to say, she wouldn't have planned to go back. ”

Jin Xin listened and glanced at each other with Ziqin.

Zhang's mother was still there and said: "Originally, it was best not to publicize this kind of thing, but when the third lady came, the movement was too big, and when she saw the eldest lady, she cried and said, and told the whole thing, what about a room of people at that time, can you hide it?" After a morning's work, the entire Jin family knew about it, and the old lady was alarmed and went to see it in person. ”

Jin Xin lowered his head and muttered: "No wonder I went to see my grandmother just now, and I saw that she was not in a good mood." ”

"To say, in addition to the first two young ladies, the best married among our young ladies is the third young lady, she is also quite proud, now, the other young ladies who have married are all fine, but she has an accident, with her temperament, how can she accept it?"

Ziqin said on the side.

Jin Xin thought for a while and said, "I think, she will come again tomorrow." ”

"The eldest lady said that she would not be allowed to come."

Zhang's mother said.

"Heh, that's going to have to be listened to."

Jin Xin laughed, "My third sister is a spoiled character, you have to let her stay calm in the palace and not move, I think, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky." ”

Mother Zhang listened and couldn't help nodding: "That's right." ”

Ziqi walked in from outside at this time, and his face looked good.

Jin Xin looked at the chess: "What's wrong?" Smiling. ”

Ziqi smiled: "Why, miss, didn't Mother Zhang tell you what happened during the day?" ”

"Yes, but does it have anything to do with your good mood?"

"Of course!"

Ziqi's eyebrows fluttered: "Miss, have you forgotten how the third lady bullied us in the past?" Look at her, she has been arrogant since she was a child, and she has made trouble for Miss You, as if she will always trample us under her feet, but now it's good, she has an accident herself, and I also heard that the reason why the third aunt wants to divorce her is because of her arrogant temper that no one in her eyes, hey, now it can be regarded as lifting a stone to shoot herself in the foot. I've been bullied by her for so long, can I not be happy to see her like this? ”

Jin Xin looked at Ziqi with a smile, "You, be careful that you are overjoyed and get into trouble." ”

"She's too busy to take care of herself now, so how can she care about me?"

But Ziqi didn't care.

Jin Xin looked at the little girl's appearance and shook her head helplessly, "When the time comes, I will be punished, don't blame me for not reminding you." ”

As he spoke, he drank a few more mouthfuls of soup and put down the dishes and chopsticks: "Okay, I'm full." ”

Zhang's mother squeezed her hand to play chess: "What are you doing standing up, you've been hanging outside for a day, and you don't do any work." ”

Ziqi was pinched, and glared at Zhang's mother with some dissatisfaction, puffing out his cheeks and looking very dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything, walked over, and packed up the dishes and chopsticks sullenly.

The next day, Jin Xin was sitting in front of the dresser to make up, when he saw Ziqi running in excitedly: "Miss, Miss, do you know? The third lady came again early in the morning, and she came crying again, and I heard that her face was still injured! ”

Jin Xin was wearing earrings for himself, but when he heard this, he was stunned by the movements in his hands.

Hurt in the face?

She didn't believe it was a simple injury.

I was a little surprised because of this, I didn't expect it to be so much.

Ziqi still said happily: "Haha, I used to come in with my head held high, but today, it's strange, people come in with a handkerchief, like a mouse seeing a cat, and hide when they see people, for fear of being seen." ”

Jin Xin looked at the undisguised smile on Ziqi's face, frowning slightly.

Ziqin couldn't look at it either, and warned Ziqi loudly: "Take care of your expression, at this time, if you are seen in such a celebratory manner, see how it ends!" ”

Ziqin looks steady, gentle and gentle, rarely loses his temper, and Ziqi is a little stunned when he hears Ziqin's reproachful voice.

"Don't do it again."

Ziqin said.

Ziqi was still dissatisfied, and muttered: "What, I'm not going out like this." ”

Jin Xin looked at Ziqi's unrepentant appearance, and shook her head helplessly, such a person must have a ruthless lesson to know convergence, it is useless to just use words, and she is too lazy to waste her tongue to educate.

She stood up: "Let's go, go and say hello to my grandmother." ”

All the way to the old lady's house, as soon as I entered the door, I felt that it was full of people, except for the familiar faces that I would see from time to time, and even a few aunts who rarely appeared on weekdays were sitting here.

The old lady was sitting on the couch, and Jin Shanqiao was sitting next to her, crying in the old lady's arms, her body trembling, and she looked like she was crying very much.

Below, the eldest lady was also sitting, her brows furrowed slightly, looking very unhappy and worried.

Luan Ming quietly walked to the old lady's side and said softly, "Old lady, the fifth lady is here." ”

The old lady was comforting Jin Shanqiao, and when she heard Luan Ming's words, she raised her eyes and looked at the door, and saw Jin Xin standing there.

Jin Xin saw the old lady looking at him, walked a few steps over, and bowed: "The granddaughter came to greet her grandmother." ”

The old lady looked at Jin Xin, smiled kindly, and asked her to sit.

Jin Xin didn't say much in interest, looked around, and wanted to find a place to sit.

Jin Wan'er got up and beckoned her to come over and sit in her place, and she moved a place in the direction of the door.

As soon as she sat down, Jin Wan'er leaned into her ear and whispered, "Fifth Sister should have heard about it, right?" ”

Jin Xin listened and nodded quietly.

Jin Wan'er sighed: "The third sister is so pitiful. ”

Jin Xin still nodded and did not speak to express his opinion.

The old lady was still there comforting Jin Shanqiao: "Okay, okay, good granddaughter, if you continue to cry like this, your grandmother's heart and liver will be broken in distress." ”

Jin Shanqiao was helped by the old lady to sit up straight, still sobbing and choking, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

Jin Xin looked over and saw that Jin Shanqiao's face was already suffocated, like a child, crying with tears all over her face, and on her forehead, a piece of gauze was wrapped.

The old lady also looked at the gauze on Jin Shanqiao's forehead, and her brows immediately wrinkled: "This kid from the Wang family is too ignorant, the pearl of our Jin family, can he do it at every turn!" ”

The old lady looked at the eldest lady and asked, "Have you asked the doctor to take a closer look?" ”

The eldest lady said: "I've seen it, and I've dealt with it." ”

"It won't leave a scar, will it?"

"The wound is not big, and it shouldn't leave a scar."

The old lady nodded reassuringly: "That's good, after all, it's a girl, how good is it to have a scar on her forehead." ”

Jin Shanqiao choked up on the side and said: "Grandmother, grandmother, you have to make the decision for me, Wang Yuncai is not a thing, how can he treat me like that!" He just doesn't take our Jin family in his eyes at all! He was ashamed to say last night, saying that his Wang family is not inferior to our Jin family, if there is a trouble at that time, we will not be able to benefit, I am a woman, I will definitely suffer more, my fertility will be damaged, I can only be an abandoned woman for the rest of my life, no one wants it anymore, and in the end it is our Jin family who will lose face. Grandmother, you say, how could he say such a thing! ”

When the old lady heard Jin Shanqiao's words, her face immediately changed, she slapped the table, and said, "Lawless him!" This is relying on the foundation of the Wang family, and no one is in sight! Hitting my Jin family's granddaughter doesn't count, do you want to hit my Jin family's face! Come on, prepare a sedan chair, I'm going to go to the palace for a walk, to meet the old lady of the Wang family, I want to ask in person, is his Wang family really going to tear up his face with my Jin family! ”

As she spoke, the old lady stood up.

The people in the room sitting below saw that the old lady stood up, and they all stood up, and no one dared to talk more with awe-inspiring faces, and the maids and women who were waiting on the side were even more breathless, and they didn't dare to breathe loudly.

Jin Shanqiao saw that the old lady was going to give herself a head, so she was secretly relieved, stepped forward, supported the old lady, and said obediently: "Grandmother, grandmother, don't be too angry, it's not good to hurt your body." ”

The old lady looked at Jin Shanqiao, regardless of whether this well-behaved person was pretending to be or not, she also knew that this child was usually a little arrogant, but, after all, she was her own granddaughter, no matter what, she wouldn't see her bullying people like this, no matter how powerful and reasonable his Wang family was, he couldn't do it directly like this!

That's a big mistake!

The old lady patted Jin Shanqiao's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, if I don't give you this breath, my grandmother won't fall!" The Wang family, who looked like a very good family at the beginning, but it was like this, heh, if no one in our Jin family came forward to deal with you, they would still be no one in our Jin family! ”

While speaking, the old lady had already walked to the door and asked Luan Ming, "Isn't the sedan chair ready?" ”

Seeing that the old lady was really about to go, the eldest lady was busy following her, and carefully persuaded: "Old lady, don't worry, it's better to let their men deal with it, it's not good for us to go rashly like this." ”

The old lady wrinkled her eyebrows and glared at her: "Let the men handle it, can they handle it well?" You said it lightly, I don't believe that they will say cruel things to the Wang family for the grievances of a female baby, no matter how long your hair is and your knowledge is short, don't you understand that little thing in the officialdom? ”

"Old lady, you also know that the relationship between them and the Wang family in the officialdom, indeed, our Jin family is not afraid of his Wang family, but in the officialdom, if you look up and don't look down, you really have a bond, how do you know that you won't be stumped and block our Jin family?"

"They'll stumble, won't we!"

The old lady was not moved, and frowned: "I am old, but I am not old and confused!" Know these things! But before that, I want you to know what dignity is! has been bullied to this point, and can still sit and remain silent, our Jin family has no such rules! ”

After speaking, without looking at the eldest lady again, the old lady continued to walk towards the door to go out.

Everyone hurriedly followed, originally each with their own thoughts, but now, whether they were watching the excitement or really caring, they all became worried.

The Jin family and the Wang family have a good relationship in the officialdom, if they tear their faces, it will be equivalent to antagonism, these two families are equal weights, and when the time comes, it will definitely be a lose-lose situation.

No one is stupid enough to make an enemy for themselves.

However, not everyone among these people will think of this, and most of them are still frightened by the old lady's momentum, thinking that something will happen if they go this way, and things will be more troublesome at that time.

However, although they didn't agree with it, no one dared to stop it.

The eldest lady was also speechless by the old lady.

At this time, Jin Xin suddenly walked out and blocked the old lady's way.

Her sudden move stunned everyone.

Jin Shanqiao was the first to react, his face was very unhappy, and his tone was not good: "Fifth sister, what are you doing?" ”

Jin Xin just smiled slightly, did not reply, but looked at the old lady and said, "Grandmother, can you listen to your granddaughter?" ”

"Five girls, if you want to persuade me not to go, I won't listen, today's matter, I must find the Wang family to theorize well!"

"That's why I want to ask my grandmother to listen to her granddaughter."

The old lady was stunned: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Grandmother, this incident, no matter who started it, the third brother-in-law started beating the third sister, it is already obvious that it is his Wang family's fault, the third sister is wrong, but no matter how wrong it is, then it will not be done. Therefore, the third brother-in-law has to apologize after all. And when such a thing happened, no one in the Wang family came forward to seek justice for the third sister, and the Wang family was not right. ”

Jin Xin said that it was the Wang family who was wrong, and when he said that the old lady's heart was in his heart, the old man listened comfortably, and his face softened.

"Since his Wang family is at fault, I'll go to someone to discuss the theory, isn't it just right!"

"Grandmother was wrong."

Jin Xin smiled and said: "Since his Wang family is wrong, then, naturally, his Wang family took the initiative to come to our Jin family to apologize, why do you want our old grandmother to come to the past?" ”

When the old lady heard Jin Xin's words, she hesitated.

Jin Shanqiao saw that the old lady seemed to be moved, and glared at Jin Xin: "You said it lightly, will people come to apologize to me!" ”

Jin Xin smiled: "The relationship between the Jin family and the Wang family, everyone knows, it is a status equal, but it is an extremely friendly and harmonious relationship, but everyone knows that if these two families want to fight against each other, the situation in Jiangnan will be completely chaotic. If you are angry now, when the time comes, someone who speaks inappropriately will really tear your face, and the final result will not be life or death, but a lose-lose situation. Who bears this loss? ”

Jin Xin's words made everyone dumbfounded.

The old lady was also stupid, she was angry just now, and she thought about it very reasonably, but she didn't expect this layer to come up.

Five thousand words.
