Not to mention how angry Qin Youan was after getting the news. It is only said that on the same day, after the Xu couple and Mrs. Huang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left the Marshal's Mansion, they returned to Xu's house together.

Shen Jingfang heard that her father-in-law and mother-in-law were back, and hurriedly greeted them.

Seeing their faces were discouraged, their expressions were sluggish, and they didn't want to say anything, they already understood everything in their hearts, in fact, she had expected this situation for a long time, but now, she still felt a little disappointed. But she didn't show it, and the more knowledgeable ones didn't ask much.

The group waited outside the door for a whole morning, tired and hungry, and after a belated lunch, it seemed to come back to life.

"What the hell is going on?" Xu Zhaoting, who didn't know, asked in a deep voice, "Why did I faintly hear that you were kicked out?" ”

With the relationship between the Qin and Xu families, even if they fail to make amends, they should not be driven out.

What did they do, so that Mrs. Qin didn't even save face for them.

As soon as Xu Zhaoting asked, the faces of people, including Mrs. Huang, instantly turned the color of pig liver, and they also revealed a little embarrassment.

Fortunately, there were only four of them in the living room, the juniors were not in front of them, and the maids and servants were all sent out, so they were not too embarrassed.

Mrs. Xu coughed lightly to relieve her embarrassment, and said vaguely: "My younger brother and sister are probably still angry, so they will ...... After two days, she will be angry and she should be able to speak better. ”

Old Madam Huang and Weng's faces also looked better, and they nodded kindly.

Xu Zhaoting saw that his wife avoided the important and did not answer him directly at all, so he immediately frowned and said, "Wait a few days, Marshal Qin should come back, how can it be too late then?" ”

"What?" Mrs. Xu was shocked, "Marshal Qin has only been gone for a long time, how can he come back so quickly?" Where did you hear the news? ”

Xu Zhaoting shook his head and said, "I just guessed. With Marshal Qin's current strength, it is effortless to take down those surrounding forces. "The strength of the Qin family will inevitably swell again.

The stronger the Qin family, the less useful the Xu family will be to the Qin family, and the gap will become bigger and bigger. At that time, why can the Qin family afford the Xu family? In-laws?

However, his three sons were not angry, and this time, none of them were selected into the expedition team.

In fact, they can fight in all directions as ordinary soldiers, but unfortunately, the three of them disdain to be ordinary soldiers because of their identities, and they don't have the ability to be generals, so they can only stay at home aggrieved.

Xu Zhaoting couldn't get used to it, so he kicked his three sons to the barracks and practiced with the soldiers, which was better than doing nothing at home.

Mrs. Xu breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest fearfully and said, "It turns out that you also guessed, since you didn't get the letter, don't say it to be scary, it's true!" ”

If Marshal Qin came back too soon, it would be detrimental to the two of them.

They hadn't persuaded Madam Qin yet, and they hadn't thought of a way to solve this matter, how could Marshal Qin come back!

"I'm not alarmist." Xu Zhaoting said solemnly, "If you want to persuade Mrs. Qin, you must do your best!" ”

"This ......" Mrs. Xu felt a little repulsed and embarrassed, "Is there no other way?" She didn't want to come to the door to see Mrs. Qin's face anymore, what if she was really beaten?

"Unless someone has more influence on Marshal Qin than Madam Qin." Xu Zhaoting said, "Tomorrow, I will go to Cheng Yingcai to make amends, and then talk to Chen Xiuyuan, and when Marshal Qin comes back, I will ask them to help us say a few words, maybe it will be of some use." It's a pity that Jingfang couldn't marry in time, otherwise, we wouldn't have to worry so much. ”

If Jingfang became Marshal Qin's wife, why did they bother to beg Mrs. Qin? As long as Jingfang blows the pillow wind in Marshal Qin's ears, it will be. Just let Jingfang be in front of Mrs. Qin and give them a few kind words!

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu also sighed, and her heart was extremely agreeable.

At the same time, she also made up her mind that when this matter was dealt with, she would go to Qin's house to finalize the marriage between Marshal Qin and Jingfang, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

A glimmer of light flashed in Old Madam Huang's cloudy old eyes, and she slowly spoke: "Virtuous son-in-law, has Jingfang's marriage with Marshal Qin been decided?" ”

Xu Zhaoting nodded first, and then shook his head, "Jingfang is the person personally chosen by Marshal Qin, and the marriage has already been agreed, but it's a pity that ......" The words were full of regret.

Mrs. Xu's eyes also flashed with a trace of guilt, after all, the marriage will be postponed, and it has something to do with Huizhu.

This matter is not a good thing, so she didn't tell Mrs. Huang. Fortunately, Mrs. Huang didn't ask very interestingly, but the disappointment and regret in her eyes were about to overflow.

"That's it, it looks like it's all fate!"

"Mother, don't worry." Mrs. Xu hurriedly persuaded, "We still have time now, just grind slowly with Mrs. Qin, she will always let go." ”

Old Madam Huang nodded and said, "That's all there is to it." I don't know what Mrs. Qin likes? And Marshal Qin, I don't know if you have any preferences? ”

It's going to be a gift.

Mrs. Xu thought for a while, but she didn't find anything that Mrs. Qin particularly liked, but she still said: "What women like is nothing more than jewelry and other things, but Mrs. Qin is not short of these things. Perhaps only the rare treasures, or precious medicinal herbs, can impress her! ”

She is the daughter of the Huang family, so she naturally knows that the Huang family also has a lot of good things.

For the sake of the family's future, it is worth it to bleed once.

Mrs. Huang was a little distressed, but she still took it to heart.

"What about Marshal Qin!" Old Madam Huang asked again. She had to prepare with both hands, once Mrs. Qin didn't work, they could only go to curry favor with Qin You'an. Even if there is little hope, you have to do it.

Xu Zhaoting said: "You don't have to think about filling in Marshal Qin, this."

Thinking about filling in Marshal Qin, this will only disgust him. Marshal Qin attaches the most importance to his mother. If you please Mrs. Qin, it is equivalent to currying favor with Marshal Qin. ”

Although Xu Zhaoting's ability is not good, he still has eyesight, and he can see many things clearly. Qin Youan attached great importance to his mother, he could naturally see it.

Things are back to square one.

This made Mrs. Huang very frustrated.

It's not that they don't want to please Mrs. Qin, the key is that Mrs. Qin clearly doesn't welcome them!

She couldn't pull this old face either.

So, she said with some hesitation: "...... Virtuous son-in-law, can't you let Jingfang come forward? ”

……

Early the next morning, Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Huang and Weng reappeared in front of the gate of the Marshal's Mansion again, but compared with yesterday, there was one less Xu Zhaoting and one more Shen Jingfang.

What are they going to do with Shen Jingfang to intercede?

In the end, it is the daughter-in-law of the Qin family, how can Mrs. Qin give some face.

Although they all felt that it was a bit uncomfortable for Shen Jingfang to do this, it was easy for her to be rejected by her future mother-in-law before she passed the door, but they had no choice.

Of course, Mrs. Xu also asked Shen Jingfang's opinion. If she refuses, she won't force it.

However, who made her the stepmother who raised Shen Jingfang, even if Shen Jingfang was bitter in her heart, knowing that doing so might ruin her marriage, it was impossible to refuse her.

If she really refused, Mrs. Xu might not force her, but in the end, she would have a grudge against her, and her attitude towards her would definitely be much worse than before.

Mrs. Xu loves her, but she must also be obedient, filial, and empathetic, and willing to sacrifice for the Xu family.

The love she received in the Xu family was not obtained out of thin air.

She will never be like her sister Xu Huizhu, carefree, happy and happy to live her life, without having to bear anything, as long as she enjoys the love of her parents and family.

What was supposed to be Xu Huizhu's carry, she was responsible for it.

Even if she was wronged, she didn't dare to resent them, and even respected them, was filial to them, and always thought about the Xu family.

Her parents have long since died, apart from the Xu family, where is there a place for her?

Even if she marries in the future, the Xu family will be her backing.

She understands this very well. The more you understand, the more you can't be willful.

Therefore, she listened to Mrs. Xu's words and came to the Marshal's Mansion.

Looking at the imposing gate of the Marshal's Mansion, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Huang both stopped in unison.

Mrs. Qin's reprimand for them yesterday is vivid, they can't do it knowingly, if they are really beaten, they will lose their old face.

Mrs. Xu's expression was very complicated, she was still the owner of the Marshal's Mansion before, when she came in and out, no one cared, and there would be someone to serve her attentively, even if she moved out later, the door of the Marshal's Mansion was also open to her, and she could enter and exit at any time.

But now, she could only stand outside the door and look up, not daring to take a step forward.

How can others know about the sourness and discomfort in my heart?

If she had known that there would be such a day, she should not have moved out in the first place, and Lai would have relied there.

What kind of marshal is a deputy marshal who has left the Marshal's Mansion and has no real power? Who would take them seriously, let alone her, the wife of the deputy marshal?

Mrs. Xu did not realize the Xu family's predicament so clearly at that moment as she did now.

"Mother......" Shen Jingfang couldn't help but call softly when she saw her lose her mind.

Mrs. Xu came back to her senses in an instant, barely showed a smile, and said, "Jingfang, you go in by yourself, my mother and your grandmother and aunt are waiting for you here." ”

Shen Jingfang nodded and said, "Okay, then the daughter will go in." ”

"Go ahead!" Mrs. Xu nodded.

"Wait!" Shen Jingfang was about to turn around, but she shouted again.

"What else does Mother command?" Shen Jingfang asked with a little surprise.

Mrs. Xu only had red eyes, opened her mouth a few times, but she didn't say anything, and her tears fell even more fiercely.

On the contrary, Mrs. Huang said, "Your mother is just too worried about you. ”

When Shen Jingfang heard this, she lowered her head and smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Mother doesn't have to worry, her daughter will be fine." ”

Mrs. Xu just choked up and nodded.

Looking at Shen Jingfang's distant figure, she secretly decided in her heart that if their marriage with the Qin family did not come to fruition, she would definitely find another good family for Jingfang in the future to compensate her, how could she not be wronged.

As the saying goes, Qi is not a couple.

Now that the Qin family is thriving and becoming more and more powerful, the Qin family may not be a good marriage. Perhaps, it would be a good thing to get rid of this marriage!

comforting herself like this, Mrs. Xu felt less guilty in her heart.

If you can use the marriage of the righteous daughter in exchange for the survival and prosperity of the entire Huang family, it will be worth it.

However, even so, she was still a little reluctant to be a relative of the Qin family.

If there is no in-law of the Qin family, what is the Xu family? Not to mention the prosperity of the Xu family in the future, if it is not abandoned by the Qin family, it will be good.

How good is that?

Mrs. Xu thought of her own daughter, Xu Huizhu. Now that the New Year has passed, Huizhu is already eleven years old, twelve years old, and she will be able to get married in two years.

What's more, Huizhu also looks better than Jingfang, and will please people, and the marshal is not very old, if he and Jingfang's marriage fails, and he can delay getting married for another two years, Huizhu may not have no chance.

She hadn't had this idea before, but once it arose, she couldn't suppress it. Huizhu's surname is Xu, and she is her biological daughter, isn't it better for her to marry Marshal Qin than Jingfang to marry Marshal Qin, and change her name to justice? The more she thought about it, the more she thought about it, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Jiang Huizhu and Marshal Qin were a natural pair.

She had forgotten that it was Shen Jingfang that Qin Youan asked to marry, not Xu Huizhu, and even more forgot that Xu Huizhu had completely killed Marshal Qin. is only wishful thinking that Huizhu is so beautiful and lovely, Marshal Qin will definitely like his daughter.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu said to Mrs. Huang: "Mother, you say, if the marriage between Jingfang and the Qin family fails, how about I let Huizhu marry Marshal Qin?" ”

Old Madam Huang was stunned for a moment, then patted her hand with a smile and said, "It should have been like this a long time ago." I've long been unhappy with this. How can a righteous daughter be more important than her own daughter, Marshal Qin is destined to be extraordinary in the future, not to mention being his wife, even if she is a concubine, it is also a blessing. ”

If the Huang family had a daughter of appropriate age, she would have been sent to the Marshal's Mansion long ago.

Mrs. Xu shook her head and said, "How can a concubine be compared to a wife." It makes no sense that the righteous daughter of the Xu family can be hired as a wife, but her own daughter should be a concubine. ”

Old Madam Huang sighed: "But Huizhu's age is still too young, and the Qin family will definitely not wait." Is it possible, do you think that in the whole world, only your Xu family has a daughter? ”

Mrs. Xu was stunned.

……

Qin Shu had breakfast and was talking to Zhou Zhen'er, who came to ask for peace, planning to go to the garden later, and take a look at those female students by the way.

At this moment, a girl came in to report, and Shen Jingfang asked to see her.

Qin Shu snorted coldly and said, "I knew that the Xu family would not give up, and would definitely let her come over to intercede." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Shu pondered for a while, and finally said, "Let her in!" "It doesn't hurt to meet her. I just hope she doesn't be like her stepmother.
