Chapter 358: The Qin Family Can Speak
Mrs. Liu is just a mother-in-law on the second door, she has no power or power, and few people can see her on weekdays, the reason why she goes to the big kitchen to eat so unscrupulously is just because the housekeeper in charge of the big kitchen is her own sister, known as the Dewang family.
It was the time for the masters to pass breakfast, and the Dewang family had no time to pay attention to it, and when they saw Mrs. Liu coming, they hurriedly gave a look: "Go to my house." ”
As the housekeeper of the big kitchen, the dirty work naturally does not need her to do it herself, and there is a lounge of her own next to the big kitchen.
Mrs. Liu was very blind, and the pestle refused to leave behind Dewang's house.
"Don't you see I'm busy? Standing here in the way...... "The Dewang family was busy, and when they saw their sister so blind, they reprimanded them unceremoniously.
Mrs. Liu pursed her lips and wanted to go back, but thinking that she still had to rely on her sister, she had to suppress the unwillingness in her heart and whispered: "I have something to tell you." ”
The Dewang family glanced at Mrs. Liu, very suspicious, but after all, he did not refuse, ordered a few words of instructions from the housekeeper, and took Mrs. Liu out of the big kitchen.
Because they were busy, they didn't bother to bring it to the house, and in the open space at the door, the Dewang family asked impatiently, "What's the matter?" I have to say it now. ”
Mrs. Liu didn't care either, she leaned in front of Dewang's house, lowered her voice and said: "Just now, Mrs. Wang from Wutong Garden went to the second gate and hurriedly sent Qin Yong out of the house, I vaguely heard it, saying that I was looking for Mr. Something. ”
"What sir?" Dewang's family is much more sensitive than Mrs. Liu, and subconsciously repeated, and then took out a piece of loose silver from the cuff, and checked it in the palm of his hand, about five dollars, hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and slapped it in Mrs. Liu's hand, "I know it, you hurry back and stare at it, if there is anything, come and tell me, don't delay." ”
The silver she bought made Mrs. Liu very satisfied, she smiled on her face, and nodded again and again: "Sister, don't worry, sister, when will my sister delay things!" ”
After speaking, Mrs. Liu rode the wind on the soles of her feet and quickly went back to the second gate.
Dewang's family looked at his sister who walked away along the eaves and trees, and after a moment of silence, he turned around and entered the big kitchen, and his eyes turned on a few food boxes, and he directly ordered the largest food box, and said to the two rough girls next to him: "Carry up the food box in Hanlian Garden, follow me!" ”
Like Dewang's family, there are several, and before breakfast is finished, the news of something happening in Wutong Garden has spread to almost every courtyard of the Liang Guogong Mansion.
Don't talk about this, besides, Qin Yong Pegasus went to Baishi Bridge, and he didn't understand what the reason was, so he only found the old man Mu who was practicing with Afu Aman, and left after pulling it.
"Hey, you kid, what's the matter, so urgent? If you don't make it clear, the old man won't go! "How could Old Man Mu be so good at talking, he made a thousand catties down, but Qin Yong couldn't move him a bit.
Qin Yong turned his head with a bitter face, and said anxiously and impatiently: "Old man, you should hurry up, it's Madame...... Madame is not good! ”
As soon as he heard this, Old Man Mu no longer cheated, but Ah Fu Aman also heard it, and immediately became anxious, and pounced on Qin Yong and asked.
"Master Yong, what's wrong with my mother?"
"Master Yong, is my mother sick? What is the disease? ”
Qin Yong was hugged by the two children, and only then did he regret that he had no way to stop him. He was in a hurry to let Old Man Mu go over to see a doctor, but he ignored that the two children were also present, and he was hugged, where could he get out!
Thinking that Old Man Mu was not on the side of Baishiqiao, and he was not at ease if he only left two children, Qin Yong simply picked up Afu Aman one by one and took Old Man Mu all the way back to the Liangguo Mansion.
"Begonia, what's wrong with you?" Qin Zheng was practicing martial arts in the side courtyard, but the little guy rushed over to report the news, saying that Mrs. Wang of Wutong Yuan had sent Qin Yong out of Lu to invite Mr. Mu, Qin Zheng was startled when he heard it, he was still fine when he came out in the morning, why did he go to invite Mr. Mu after such a while...... This sudden illness is more serious and critical!
I rushed back to Wutong Garden in a hurry, but when I entered the door, I saw Qiu Chen sitting on the kang drinking tea. Look at the face is ruddy and shiny, and the eyes are clear and bright...... It's just, why do you look at yourself so viciously and resentfully?
Chen and a few girls looked at the headless and brainless Hou Ye who rushed in in with a hurry, looked at each other, and inevitably couldn't help laughing, Chen poured a cup of tea and put it opposite Qiu Chen, waved his hand and retreated with a group of girls.
"What the hell is going on? How can you invite the old gentleman? Seeing that the girl's mother-in-law had retreated, Qin Zheng simply sat down next to Qiu Chen, stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Qiu Chen's shoulder and asked in a low voice.
Qiu Chen hated to bite this initiator, but the evil person was too unconscious, and he asked again and again, and said, 'Good and decent'!
It's him who is good, not her, okay? Did he look good at her? She's sitting here, still breathing normally, and her heart rate is normal, so why should she be bedridden because of this kind of thing?!
Qiu Chen grinded his teeth, after all, he was not virtuous, he turned around and leaned on Qin Zheng's shoulder and opened his mouth to gnaw down.
Qin Zheng wore a cyan single coat when he practiced martial arts, and Qiu Chen bit it down, and the thin layer of silk couldn't stop anything at all, but really bit it on his shoulder.
"Hmm......" Qin Zheng snorted in his throat, gritted his teeth and hugged Qiu Chen's shoulders with both hands, but did not push it away.
was bitten by a bite, Qin Zhengfu suddenly understood the truth of the matter in his heart, as the initiator and culprit, he was bitten so silently...... I can only bear it!
This bite, Qiu Chen was not polite, and the bite was very sincere. The muscles on Qin Zheng's cheeks trembled slightly, and he gently patted Qiu Chen's shoulder with his hand, and said in a low voice: "You take it slowly, don't bite your teeth sore!" ”
"You!" Qiu Chen was annoyed and hateful, let go of his mouth, raised his hand and punched the man's chest several times in a row.
"Ouch...... You're going to break your ribs! If he didn't continue to bite, how could Qin Zheng care if he punched Qiu Chen twice with his strength, and with a relaxed and happy face, he reached out and wrapped Qiu Chen's whole person into his arms and hugged him tightly, while leaning his head and whispering in her ear.
"You bastard!" Qiu Chen gritted his teeth, and this was the only sentence that could be scolded.
The Chen family and the Wang family went to invite Old Man Mu, she didn't know the way at all, and when she knew the way, Qin Yong had already run to the Baishi Bridge, she couldn't stop it, and she didn't blame it much. She really didn't know much about married life and having children. Although she already has Afu Aman and is not in a hurry to have a child, her mother-in-law Liu, sister-in-law and sister-in-law, plus Chen and others are all whispering in her ear, pregnant with a child as soon as possible, and giving birth to a little son, so that she can stand firm and deal with the three and four children who may appear in the future...... Not only has she heard a lot of people, but in fact, she also understands intellectually that in this era, the biggest function of a woman is to reproduce and have children, if you can't have children, the most basic use of women is gone, and it is normal for her in-laws to abandon them directly, let alone live comfortably and happily.
Although she is not the kind of woman who has to be hanged from a tree, she doesn't want to let the fertility problem become an obstacle to her marriage. Now that you have entered the marriage, no one wants to end up in a good way!
Therefore, she also felt it was necessary to ask Old Man Mu to come over to see her, and prescribe a prescription appropriately, or take a bath or decoction, to recuperate.
Who knew that such a secret thing was passed on, but Qin Zheng, the culprit, didn't know it at all, and ran to ask her how she was doing...... What does this make her say?!
Just scolding him for being a bastard doesn't relieve his hatred, but Qiu Chen's upbringing in two lifetimes together can't make her scold like a shrew. This breath can only be held in the heart.
"Heh......" Qin Zheng, who was scolded, couldn't help laughing, and at the same time, his arm tightened very cleverly, imprisoning a certain woman in his arms. It's good that he is brave and invincible when he goes to the battlefield, but if he is bitten by his own woman at home, he doesn't need to be brave, he can avoid it or not!
I'm afraid that his shoulders are already red and swollen now, and if he goes to practice martial arts in the past few days, he can't take off his shirt.
Unfortunately, Qin Zheng was obviously not experienced enough in 'fighting the enemy', he fixed Qiu Chen's body, but did not imprison her teeth, Qiu Chen opened his mouth and bit Qin Zheng's chest again, Qin Zheng, who was in pain, snorted, and then let go.
Holding Qiu Chen's shoulders with both hands, fixing the fried woman in front of him at a distance of arm, Qin Zheng looked down at Qiu Chen's eyes, frowned and said, "I remember that your eight characters belong to rabbits, right?" ”
Qiu Chen didn't expect Qin Zheng to ask such a question at this time, he was slightly stunned, and raised his foot and kicked Qin Zheng's calf.
What does it matter what it is, bite when you should bite, and kick when you should kick...... Rabbits bite even when they're in a hurry!
The improper measures just now gave Qiu Chen the opportunity to attack in close quarters, suffered a loss, Qin Zheng had experience, and Qiu Chen had no possibility of wanting to bite or kick people again.
She lowered her eyes angrily and said calmly, "Let go of me!" ”
Qin Zheng was still holding her shoulder, and said with a hint of banter on his face of defensiveness: "Deflated? ”
Qiu Chen lowered his head in agreement, Qin Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time let go of his arm.
In the next second, one of Qiu Chen's feet stepped on Qin Zheng's toe fiercely, and he crushed it hard!
"Hmm...... This time it's crippled! Qin Zheng let out a muffled scream, and then jumped away.
Qiu Chen didn't look at him, straightened his clothes and hair, sat down on the kang upright, and said loudly: "Let's eat!" ”
Chen and Yufeng didn't go far at all, they waited in the outhouse, but Chen was afraid that Qiu Chen would be thin-skinned and the girls couldn't hold their faces when they heard about private matters, so they sent a few girls to the door of the house, and she was the only one waiting outside the door of the inner room.
Chen also vaguely heard some suspicious sounds in the house just now, and secretly rejoiced in the love of the little couple. At this time, when she heard Qiu Chen's order to pass the food, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly instructed the girls, and she herself picked up the curtain and entered the back room.
As soon as his eyes turned, Chen saw a not-so-clear footprint on Hou Ye's black satin upper, as well as a trace of embarrassment on Hou Ye's face, and then saw Qiu Chen sitting there with a solemn face, with a hint of smugness in his steady, he pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "The slave and maid are waiting for Hou Ye and Mrs. to clean their hands, and breakfast will come up." ”
Qin Zheng was used to smiling, and he was still a little embarrassed in the face of Chen's playful glance, but after listening to Chen's words at this time, he didn't wait for Qiu Chen to speak, so he rushed to say: "Don't worry about me, just serve Madame!" ”
After speaking, Qin Zheng bypassed the big screen in the corner of the house and went straight into the clean room to wash his hands.
As soon as Qin Zheng left, the Chen family looked at Qiu Chen and looked at it, Qiu Chen was embarrassed by her, but he also knew that the opening was getting darker and darker at this time, so he simply ignored it with a wooden face, jumped off the kang, and entered the clean room by himself.
When he entered the door, he happened to meet Qin Zheng, who turned back when he heard the sound, and the two of them were stunned at the same time, and they couldn't help but laugh at the same time.
Qin Zheng smiled and stretched out his hand to hug Qiu Chen, who was a little embarrassed after laughing, personally took the soap to wash her hands, and dried her with a cloth towel, but still didn't let go, and pulled her out of the clean room together.
Chen's big girl and little girl on duty have already spread breakfast on the couch. Because Qin Zheng and Qiu Chen only ate in the small kitchen of Wutong Garden, the arrangement of this meal also maintained Qiu Chen's style, which was fine but not lost its original flavor; Delicious but not extravagant and wasteful. Therefore, breakfast looks very simple, with only four cold side dishes, namely shrimp oil radish, shrimp skin choy sum, preserved egg tofu and crispy almonds. One boiled egg per person, one plate of goose fat shredded chicken rolls and one plate of ghee shredded radish mille-feuille cake, one bowl of millet porridge per person. The rarer is the greenhouse cucumber and tomato platter shipped from Anyang Prefecture. Used to cook the fruit after cooking.
Qiu Chen let Qin Zheng lead her to sit down on the couch together, she didn't serve with dishes, and the two picked up the dishes and chopsticks at the same time and began to eat.
After drinking a bowl of hot millet porridge, Qiu Chen felt that his body was warm and comfortable. Qin Zheng ate relatively quickly, but he still maintained a good upbringing habits, almost no sound, and did not speak, and soon swept away a bowl of porridge, two plates of staple food and an egg, put down the dishes and chopsticks, Qin Zheng got up and said, "You eat slowly, I'll go ahead and take a look...... Well, it's time for the master to arrive! ”
Qiu Chen nodded, watched Qin Zheng get up and go out with a straight face, and suddenly realized a problem. Qin Zheng and Old Man Mu are called masters, and Aman is also called masters to Old Man Mu...... In this way, Qin Zheng and Man'er have not become brothers and sisters? Is this different?
But this matter flashed in her mind, and she left it behind. The same generation is different, and the few people involved don't care anymore, so she doesn't bother to care about that idle matter.
Qin Zheng, who came out of Wutong Garden, said that he was going to greet Old Man Mu, but it was better to say that he was angry in hindsight. There were only Qin Yong and Qin Xiao outside the second gate, Qin Yong took the order and left in a hurry, leaving only Qin Xiao alone, in the Liang State Mansion, there were not many henchmen of Qin Zheng, Qin Xiao didn't have time to send a message to Qin Zheng at all, but Qin Zheng's little servant got the news from elsewhere...... The twists and turns in this are no strangers to people born in this kind of family. It's just that Qin Zheng didn't think about staying in the Liang Guo Mansion, and he ignored these before, but he didn't expect that those people would hit his wife with a small idea first.
Old man Mu rushed to the Liang Guogong Mansion with Afu Aman, and after seeing Qiu Chen, he shook his head directly and said, "This, what kind of medicine to take." Those soothing medicines are all blood-invigorating, where can you use them! ”
Drugs to get rid of muscle aches naturally have the effect of invigorating blood and removing stasis, and there is no obstacle for ordinary people to use them, but for Qiu Chen, a woman who is ready to get pregnant at any time, the drugs that invigorate blood and remove stasis are untouchable. Not only can she not use it herself, but she also has to guard against other people's ways, some drugs that invigorate blood and remove stasis, as well as slippery tires and infertility!
When Old Man Mu said this, Qiu Chen was also very helpless. Of course, she knew that the medicine for invigorating blood and removing blood stasis could not be used, but she still connived at Chen and the others to invite Old Man Mu here, not thinking that he might be able to come up with a prescription that would not hinder her, but who knew that Lu Dao was such a result.
Looking at Qiu Chen's disappointed face, Old Man Mu was quite interesting, and changed his words and said, "There is no prescription, but there are some other methods, such as massage...... It's just that the root cause of this is that your body is too weak...... You can move around more and stretch your muscles and veins, and it won't be like this anymore. ”
Discussing with an old man how to prevent the sequelae of intercourse, Qiu Chen also felt embarrassed. When Old Man Mu mentioned it like this, he understood.
To put it bluntly, exercise in bed is also a type of exercise, and her symptoms of muscle soreness are just stretching injuries caused by sudden muscle movements...... If you strengthen exercise and improve the adaptability of your muscles, not only will you not have muscle soreness, but you can also strengthen your body's flexibility and tolerance, which is very helpful for your posture and quality...... Conversely, it will also improve the quality of life of couples and enhance the relationship between husband and wife.
Qiu Chen has no practical experience in these things, but theoretically he is not ignorant of the Tao, but his brain is imprisoned by some special movement, and he actually doesn't think about it.
"Hmm......" Qiu Chen responded, and then quickly changed the subject, "You guys came over in a hurry, haven't you had breakfast yet?" I'm going to have someone serve you food! ”
Looking at the practice clothes on the two little things in his arms, Qiu Chen knew that the old and two young people's morning training had not yet ended, and they must not have eaten breakfast.
At the mention of eating, Afu Aman immediately raised his hand and cheered in approval.
Qiu Chen simply asked Qin Zheng to take Old Man Mu to sit in the hall, while she took her two children to the inner room to wash her hands and face, and change into sweaty clothes.
Qin Zheng accompanied Old Man Mu to sit on the chair, and the girls immediately brought a breakfast.
Old man Mu was not polite, took a handkerchief and wiped his hands, grabbed the chopsticks and swept away the wind and clouds, swept away the staple side dishes in front of him, drank the last mouthful of porridge, and took the new tea sent by the girl and took a sip...... The chefs in the house over there are all hired at a high price, and their skills are good, but they don't make people eat so comfortably. ”
Qin Zheng hooked his lips and showed a smug smile, as if he was being praised.
He was also deeply touched, not to say that the chefs in the Liang Guogong Mansion and Baishiqiao had poor skills, many of the meals made by those people were more time-consuming and laborious than Qiu Chen's meals here, and the taste was indeed stronger, and in terms of appearance alone, they were all more exquisite than Qiu Chen's food here. But Qiu Chen's meals, not to mention the exquisite selection of materials, the key is that there are many materials and not miscellaneous, and the meals made retain the most simple original taste, and the meals on Qiu Chen's side are always prepared according to everyone's taste, and they are always well matched, which looks simple and tastes delicious...... With a taste of 'home' that is hard to find anywhere else!
This is the fundamental reason why the meals that Qiu Chen has rectified here are so popular!
"That's nature!" Qin Zheng responded without the slightest modesty, and then the smile on his face narrowed, and he asked, "Is her body really okay?" ”
Old Man Mu glanced at Qin Zheng obliquely, and then snorted disdainfully: "It's useless!" ”
Qin Zheng ignored Old Man Mu's praise and criticism, continued to stare at him and asked again: "Is it hurt?" ”
Old man Mu rolled his eyes very unceremoniously, drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and then said idly: "Her body has been injured, and I am afraid that it will be an obstacle in the future......"
"......" Qin Zheng, who had just asked again and again, suddenly fell silent when he heard this.
When Old Man Mu said that, he stared at Qin Zheng's expression, but the result was completely unexpected.
Qin Zheng had no accidents, no sadness, no anxiety...... He didn't even have any expression, just lowered his eyes, covering his eyes, as if he was secretly thinking about something.
"What?" Old Man Mu, who waited for a while and didn't get a response, couldn't help but ask, "If she can't have children in the future, do you want to divorce your wife?" Or like your father, marry a few concubines to pass on the lineage? ”
"No!" Qin Zheng raised his head suddenly, stared at Old Man Mu resolutely, and said resolutely, "What if she can't conceive in the future?" Isn't there already Fu'er and Man'er? Her children are my children, and there are children and daughters, and what is not satisfied? ”
Old Man Mu didn't expect to summon Qin Zheng's words. According to his meaning, even if Qin Zheng will not divorce his wife, he still wants to take a concubine to inherit the lineage.
For a while, Old Man Mu was a little stunned and couldn't come back to his senses.
He was stunned, but one of the women in the room was shocked and moved, and could hardly cry uncontrollably.
"Huh" Qiu Chen tilted his head, tried to make the salty and wet liquid in his eyes flow back, raised his hand to wipe the corners ......of his eyes, led the two children one by one, and walked out of the back room.
"Let's go have breakfast!"
Seeing Qiu Chen leading the two children out, his eyes were still red and did not fade, Old Man Mu turned his head and glared at Qin Zheng, it seems that the men of the old Qin family are born to please women, this kid usually doesn't hum or ha, he has a coffin board face to everyone, and he can't even laugh, but he didn't expect to please women, and it is also an extraordinary means!
Squinting his eyes, Old Man Mu turned back to Qiu Chen and the two children and smiled: "Since you are married, the two children should also change their words, right?" ”
Qiu Chen was slightly stunned, and then turned his gaze to Qin Zheng. She never thought about getting the kids to change their minds...... After all, Ah Fu is already seven years old and already sensible, he knows that Lu Dao is not Qin Zheng's son, but he still wants to call his father...... Stepfather, may embarrass the child.
Besides, she never planned to let her children get anything or property from the Qin family, and the family property she earned for the children was enough for the children to live a rich and prosperous life. Moreover, her income will continue to increase every year in the future, and she originally planned to divide it into two halves, half for Afu Aman, and the other half for her children with Qin Zheng in the future......
Just now, she stood in the door and listened to the conversation between Old Man Mu and Qin Zheng clearly, knowing that she might not be able to have children anymore, and she would not have any more children in the future.
At this time, after listening to Old Man Mu's proposal, she resisted at first, but then remembered Qin Zheng's words just now, and she couldn't help but ask herself. She only considered the feelings of the children, but she didn't think about what Qin Zheng would think at all...... If you can have a biological child, you can't pay it back, if you can't have a biological child, Qin Zheng treats Fu'er Man'er as her own child, so what's wrong with calling her father?
Subconsciously, Qiu Chen raised his eyes and looked at Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng's expression was not painful or anything like that, his expression was very calm and calm, and even his gaze was tolerant and gentle, without the slightest reproach and resentment.
After meeting Qin Zheng's gaze for a moment, Qin Zheng looked at the two children in Qiu Chen's hands.
Stretching out his hand, Qin Zheng's face was gentle and indifferent, with a faint smile, and said, "Fu'er, Man'er, come!" ”
Ah Fu Aman did not run over immediately, but looked up at his mother at the same time, seeing that his mother nodded at them with a smile, Aman took the lead in letting go of Qiu Chen's hand, ran over, and threw himself into Qin Zheng's arms.
This little girl originally loved to pounce on him and call people sweetly, but this time, the little girl didn't scream, but put her chubby little arms around Qin Zheng's neck, and asked close to the root of his ear: "Uncle Qin, can I call you daddy?" ”
Qin Zheng tightened his arm, and then raised his hand to touch the little girl's back and affirmed, "Yes." From now on, I will be your father! ”
"Okay...... Ah Man cheered, hugged Qin Zheng's neck and kissed him, and exclaimed sweetly, "Daddy! ”
"Whoa!" Qin Zheng agreed, laughed involuntarily, and looked past the little girl's arm to look at Fu'er who was standing a few steps in front of him.
Fu'er raised her head, her expression flushed slightly, hesitated slightly, stepped forward and took Aman's hand, under the strange attention of several adults, under Aman's incomprehensible gaze, she took Man'er's hand and took a few steps back, stood side by side three steps in front of Qin Zheng, and then took Aman's hand and knelt down respectfully.
"Xiaoru has seen his father!"
"Ah, Xiaojie has seen Daddy!"
"Whoa, whoa!" Qin Zheng agreed again and again, reached out and took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and a short dagger, and handed it to the two children.
Originally, the dagger that he wanted to give to Ah Fu was snatched by Ah Man, but Ah Fu took the jade pendant and tied it to himself without picking it up. Then, he pulled Aman together and kowtowed to thank him, and then he got up in a proper manner.
"Ha Luha, good, good!" Old man Mu sat next to him and watched the official completion of this confession ceremony, and shouted hello. Immediately, his gaze turned to Qiu Chen, "I have to celebrate this matter today!" ”
Qiu Chen's heart was astringent, but a bright smile appeared on his face, "You just had breakfast, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it at this time, right?" I'm going to go to the kitchen and take a look, how about cooking a few good dishes at noon and drinking two cups? ”
