Chapter 13 Sister Lian'er
"Madam, Aunt Mai is still standing in the courtyard, although the sun is starting to set, she is still pregnant, and there is a second miss"
"Mother Xu, you go and pull Mother Wang, Moqi and the few people who followed the second miss to the courtyard today, the family law is served, everyone in the family has to be present to watch, if you don't follow the rules in this family, if you don't put the master in your eyes, this is the end." Qin's cold voice commanded, Xu's mother responded indifferently, Cuixiu lifted the curtain and went out to inform Aunt Mai's mother and daughter.
Sister Hui, who was kneeling in the hall, recited for a moment, and couldn't help but cry. She immediately stood up and ran to the back room, and when she saw Qin, she immediately knelt down, "Mother, my daughter knows that she is wrong, everything is because her daughter naughtily put the medicine into the pastry and coaxed Moqi and the nurse to eat, the daughter no longer dare, the daughter no longer dares to run out of the house without permission, and begs the mother to spare them." ”
"Give them a lesson today, and give you a lesson, whether it's a nurse or a moqi, the rise and fall of their ups and downs are all given by you, you are their master, you don't look down on you, you are a slave who has not fulfilled her duty, and you should be punished, and in the future, you have to think about what you can do and what you can't do, that is, you don't think about yourself and the people around you."
"Cui Xiu, come in and take a good look at the second miss." Qin Shi waved at Sister Hui'er and motioned for her to go outside and kneel.
Sister Hui couldn't do anything for a while when she saw this, so she had to kneel down obediently, hoping that the Qin family would be angry and talk.
But she said that as soon as Aunt Mai heard that the old man had returned home, she thought that although she was not very favored, it was rare for her stomach to be angry, so she thought about telling Chu Jinmin the good news in her stomach, and she couldn't say how she was killed by the Qin family when she got it.
But who knew that only a few quarters of an hour after the old man returned to the house, someone came to report that something was wrong, and Chu Jinmin and the Qin family hurriedly left the house. She inquired and found out that the second lady was missing, and she was very happy for a while, so that her sister Lian was the only daughter in this house. But before she could be happy, Sister Hui was brought back by Chu Jinmin and others, although she was disappointed, it didn't last long. Soon heard that the second lady was punished, she thought about taking this opportunity to take Sister Lian'er to visit, and also to meet Chu Jinmin by the way, but who knew that the Qin family didn't even let them in, so they were dragged to the courtyard to watch a good show.
Several maids and servants, even Mother Wang and Mo Qi, who followed the eldest lady in the past, were also beaten covered in blood, and when they heard Xu's mother pass on Qin's words, her eyes skimmed when she spoke, she immediately fainted to the ground, and after going back, she had nightmares all night and night for several days.
It was night, in the main room, the mother-in-law who was keeping vigil had already slept, Chu Jinmin and the Qin family had briefly talked about leaving home and were about to sleep, but they were pulled by the Qin family.
"Master, the concubine thinks that Sister Hui is also older, and it is not a reason to see the world and play crazy like this, why don't we invite Mr. to teach her to read a few words, although the woman is virtuous, but she also has to understand some world truths."
Chu Jinmin is not a pedantic person, and he has loved Sister Hui since he was a child, and the past few years without a son are almost the same as raising a son, so after hearing this, he thought for a while and nodded, "I am not inaccurate, but we are now in Yizhou here, don't say that it is a female gentleman, even the male gentleman is not easy to find, Sister Hui is a girl, it is better to be cautious in everything." ”
Speaking of this, he glanced at the heart in Qin's stomach and felt even more regretful, if he was still in the Anning Mansion in Beijing, where would he have these concerns.
"Master, do you think we should talk to Lord Jiang and Mrs. Jiang about letting the children in the family go to the attached museum?"
Chu Jinmin immediately shook his head, "It's not proper, although today's incident is Sister Hui'er's naughtiness, but Sister Xuan and Brother Ming are also a little ignorant, and the Jiang family's population is complicated, Sister Hui'er, I'd rather she be stupid than learn that ghost trick and hinder her mental skills." ”
Qin also nodded, it was true that he was not thoughtful.
"Master, this is not in a hurry, or to ask the old ones in the capital to find one, or to search slowly, it is not a very difficult thing, but there is still a matter of concubine body to ask the master." Qin sat up and looked at Chu Jinmin and said very seriously.
"You say."
"Master, Aunt Xia was given by the old lady in Beijing, and I was really not in good health a few years ago, so you gave her a decent child to raise Sister Lian by herself. But now she is pregnant, and for some reason, her temperament has changed dramatically recently, and she is arguing, and the concubine thinks that the girl's family is not good when she is young, so she wants to put another yard for her, and she will study with her husband with Sister Hui, and she will be a concubine in the future, and she will not be said to be raised by her aunt. ”
Chu Jinmin was silent for a long time, sighed for a long time, shook Qin's hand and said, "Shulan, you have worked hard, you can decide the affairs of the family." ”
Qin smiled softly and shook his head, "It's not hard, it's the duty of a concubine." Then he personally gave Chu Jinmin wide clothes, and the two hugged each other and slept without mentioning it.
After a few days, Moqi and Wang's mother have been taken home to recuperate, Sister Hui took the silver she had easily saved and quietly gave it to Wang's mother's family, so that person could treat Wang's mother and Moqi well, fortunately, Wang's mother recovered after a few months of rest except for some skin injuries, but Moqi broke a leg, no matter how hard she tried to save it, she would probably be lame when she walked with one foot in the future.
As for the other subordinates who were punished that day, or sold, or driven out of the house, or also received a meal, Sister Hui begged the Qin family to give some comfort afterwards.
Although Qin reprimanded Sister Hui, he still instructed Xu's mother to come forward and do it, and all sighed and said to Xu's mother, "She is only four years old, if it is an ordinary family, it should be an innocent age, it turns out that I always think that she is my daughter who is easy to get, how can I protect her carefree and live to the age of eighty, but in the end I want to go wrong, her father has a mind about Jingli, that is, I am not reconciled, if she really grows up as I think, I am afraid that in the future, I will not wait for us to fight for her something, and I will not be able to live." ”
Mother Xu hurriedly comforted, "Too much to worry about, the second miss is smart, you taught that day, and now you know how to appease the next person, and you also know that you took the silver to treat the king's mother and Moqi, who in this house does not say that the second lady is merciful." ”
"Hey, you will bother to help me watch it in the future, and also give a message to the Wang family to let her recover from her injuries and continue to come back to serve, so she said that it was the second lady who begged for her, and Moqi was an orphan, so she asked Qin's mother to take her as a goddaughter, and she will still stay by Sister Hui'er in the future, and she only said that it was the second miss."
"Mrs. Zhou Xiang." Mother Xu nodded in response, and from now on, the hearts of Mother Wang and Moqi will be firmly tied to Sister Hui'er.
After a few more days, Sister Hui has been studying at home peacefully, and the family has returned to its former warmth and tranquility. There is only one thing I heard that her sister was arranged to live in a small courtyard behind the main courtyard, and in the first few days, she could see Aunt Mai crying a few times at the Qin family, but she was driven back by the Qin family's four or two daughters.
It's just that now Chu Zhenlian has moved into the main courtyard, and she and Sister Hui have to stay at the Qin family for half a day every day, Chu Zhenlian is already six years old and as old as Li Yuyi, but she is far from having the same bearing as Li Yuyi.
Not to mention cowering during the action, but there was also a lack of courtesy, and he was always nervous in the face of the Qin family, his eyes were fluttering, and his speech was like a mosquito sound. Sister Hui still likes hearty girls, but thinking that this is the same father and sister after all, she tried to talk to her a few words under the guidance of the Qin family, but often ended up without a problem.
"I heard that my sister is learning embroidery from the embroiderer, is that thing difficult?"
"It's not very difficult, my sister has been smart since she was a child, and she will learn it when she wants to come."
“”
"Sister, in a few days, the peonies in the garden at home will bloom, let's go pick them and make a bouquet for my mother, okay?"
"It's all up to my sister."
“”
There are many dialogues like this, the Qin family does not beat or scold Chu Zhenlian, and cares for her, but she always seems to be very afraid of the Qin family and Chu Zhenhui, it seems that the Qin family still has a good effect if she beats Aunt Mai's mother and daughter on weekdays.
In the future, Chu Zhenhui will occasionally bring Chu Zhenlian to play together, but it is difficult to truly achieve deep sisterhood.
