If the mother can really collect the stolen goods for a while, Mother Xu ......, "Since the mother-in-law dares to say that she is searching for stolen goods, she must have prepared in advance."

"I just want to fulfill them, let the old lady in the capital know that I really can't do it, and there is nothing you and Sister Lian'er can't show them."

This is also true, if Sister Hui really said that there were any precious things, most of them went into the Qin family's treasury. Sister Lian has followed the Qin family in the past few years, and although the Qin family let her keep her own belongings, it is not much, but this is thanks to Chu Jinmin and his wife's habit of not liking luxury.

Sister Hui understood Qin's plan and settled down, accompanied the waiter, and after a while, Mother Li came with someone violently, Mother Xu saw Qin's face flushed, knelt on the ground and did not say a word, there seemed to be tears in her eyes, Sister Hui couldn't bear to see it, so she said first: "Several mothers are old people who are serving around the elders, so let's sit and talk back." "

Mother Li's face was straight, and she knelt down, "Thank you for the compassion of the third lady, but there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and the dignity of the minions is also given by the master, and there is no rule for the minions to stand and talk back." "

As soon as she heard that she was called Miss San, Sister Hui hadn't reacted yet, and when she reacted, she called herself according to the ranking of the Marquis of Anning's Mansion, and found that this was a powerful mother-in-law, and she was pointing at her and scolding her for having no rules.

Sister Hui thought of the Qin family's strategy to show weakness, so she lowered her head, as if she had been trained, and no longer interjected.

Qin waved his hand weakly, and his voice was a little panting: "Mother Li has worked hard, the people around my mother are all regular, and people will inevitably relax after staying in this poor country for a long time, but I made my mother see the joke." "

"Where, but it's because the eldest lady is lenient." This refers to the Qin family's lack of strict governance

"Mother Li's search results?" Qin didn't seem to understand, struggled to get up, looked at Mother Li and asked.

Mother Li's hands were raised above her head, and in her palm was a gold collar of Hetian jade, which was transparent and fair, and it was a good object.

"Back to the eldest lady, this is what the old slave found in Xu's mother's room, and I heard my aunt say that this is still the old lady's reward for the eldest girl's second birthday."

The corners of Qin's mouth hooked slightly, and there was a sneer in her heart, it was when she was just pregnant with Sister Hui'er that year, and the old lady rewarded this gold collar to lift Aunt Mai, Mother Li was reminding her of the majesty of the old lady.

"I remember what Mother Li said, and I'm tired of Mother Li."

"Don't dare." Mother Li kowtowed and replied.

"Mother Xu, you are also an old man who has served me for more than 20 years, since I have made such a big mistake today, I can't spare you, but for your hard work without merit over the years, I will punish you for deducting the moon silver until you pay off the lost property of Sister Lian, and I will not notify other subordinates, which can be regarded as leaving you a little dignity."

"Mother Li, I'm afraid I'm going to entrust you with the affairs of Mother Xu for a period of time in the future, and then make plans when we go to Beijing."

"What the eldest lady said, the old slave was originally sent by the old lady to help you and the uncle, this is all an internal matter, where is it worth your hard work."

Qin smiled weakly and nodded.

Besides, Xu's mother was very unhappy in her heart, thinking that she had been shrewd all her life, and she didn't want to be calculated by an aunt, so she felt that she couldn't trust her wife, and she cried a lot in the room. Cui Sleeve couldn't bear it when she saw it, and comforted her a few words: "What is it that my mother is hiding and crying like this, why don't you go to ask for guilt in front of your wife, that is, you want to beat and punish your wife, and your wife has always valued you, even today is to defend you, but what you say here that you don't want to live is not to make your wife feel cold." "

Mother Xu felt that there was some truth when she heard this, but she didn't cry anymore, wiped away her tears, stood up, and went to Qin's upper room, kneeling outside the house under the scorching sun to plead guilty, and not letting the maids spread it.

Qin's family had the habit of taking a nap, but when he woke up, he heard Cui Sleeve cautiously say that Mother Xu was kneeling outside, and when she thought about it, she knew what it was for, and she was in a hurry, her eyes were dark, and she almost fainted, "Quick, she is that old, hurry up and help her mother in." "

Fortunately, Xu's mother has always been in good health, and she has been kneeling for more than half an hour at this time, but she is still sweating profusely, and nothing else.

But as soon as Xu's mother saw Qin's family, the tears flowed out as if she couldn't hold it, and finally simply knelt in front of Qin's bed and cried: "Miss, the old slave is useless, the old slave is sorry for the old lady and sorry for the old man and the lady's instructions before leaving, the old slave has embarrassed you, you just let the old slave die." "

"Mom is crying like this, I can't help crying." As soon as Qin said this, the tears really flowed down, and he couldn't stop it.

"Miss, don't cry, it's an old slave." When Xu's mother saw it, she quickly picked up the handkerchief at the bedside to wipe Qin's tears.

Qin's tears are flowing more and more: "Mom's behavior like this is really unbearable for my grandmother and mother, when my grandmother rewarded you as my mother, my father and mother praised you for being a capable person, but today I can't see through my hard work, but instead came to kneel and hurt my body, hurt my heart, all these years my father and mother have no news, you and Qin's mother are my mother's family, but you also keep saying that you want to die, don't want me, but why?" "

When Xu's mother heard this, she looked at Qin's with wide eyes, and her mind turned a corner, "Mrs. Mo wants to sing a virtual and real play." "

Qin's apricot eyes blinked a few times slyly as a prank when she was a girl, and burst into laughter.

Mother Xu also laughed, and pleaded guilty again and again: "Ouch, the old slave should be punished, this old man's brain is not enough to turn around." "

Qin's mother originally helped the Qin family send a few invitations to the ladies in Yizhou City outside, which was regarded as a parting banquet, but she didn't want to go back to the Chu Mansion to learn that so many things had happened, and she sighed for a while to find out the cause and effect from the Qin family. Qin's body is getting worse and worse after giving birth to his brother, and the things in the old man's capital are afraid that it is time to bother to calculate, and the Qin family often has to plan a lot of things, knowing that his body is not good, and he is even afraid that he will not see his sister grow up, and in the future, Sister Hui'er will be delayed, and he calculates that he will give his family affairs when he returns to Beijing. But she knew that she couldn't persuade herself, otherwise the Qin family would not feel at ease when she left.

What she could do was to be the right and left hand with Mother Xu, and try to save Qin's worries, so she went to Mother Xu's room at night for a good meal without mentioning it.

On the third day of October, many official wives and ladies in Yizhou City came to Chu Mansion to bid farewell to the Qin family.

Qin's family is kind to people on weekdays, and he is a person who can handle things, but in the past four or five years, he has made a few good ladies, and Zhou is the most among them, and he pulled Qin's family to cry: "Your body has not gotten better since giving birth to my brother, Yizhou is a rural place where I can't find any good doctors, and I have to treat it well in Beijing, even the imperial doctor has to ask your master to ask for it, my sister still wants to have a chance to go to Beijing to see it in this life, you have to take me with you then, and I can't spare you if I lose face." ”

"Sister, my sister has no regrets in this life, I feel that this Yizhou City is very good, if there is still that fate in this life, I still want to go back to this poor mountain and bad water to spend the rest of my life." Qin's eyes were wet and red, but he still looked at Zhou with a smile.

"Okay, well, we will meet again in this life."

Zhou saw Qin's miserable face, she felt really uncomfortable, outsiders didn't know, but she knew a little, the doctor who treated Qin was recommended by her, and she asked in private, the doctor said that Qin was fundamentally injured, and I was afraid that he would not live long.

"Sister, be a sister's willfulness, if there is really something unexpected with me and the master in the future, I hope you will take care of my two little enemies, if you have to do it, the things that Qin's mother sent a few days ago should be borrowed from you for a few years' room and board." Qin was still smiling, but the hands that were holding Zhou were using all his strength.

Zhou's tears finally rolled down, but he just looked at Qin's and shouted at his sister, crying silently.

Crying lively, Sister Xuan and Ayi in Sister Hui'er's yard over there are also red eyes, since they learned that Sister Hui was going to Beijing, they agreed to happily send Sister Hui on the road, but when they arrived at Sister Hui'er, they still couldn't stop.

"We still have a lot of things to do, that year we made an appointment to go to incense and cherry picking, but this year we couldn't make the trip, and I don't know which year we can go in the future." Sister Xuan looked out of the courtyard, her voice full of sadness.

Ayi also lowered his head, took a sip of fruit wine, and said sullenly: "When I was a child, I followed my father from Guangzhou to Yizhou, and I felt that the farthest road in the world was nothing more than that, but now I feel that Yizhou is farther away from the capital, Sister Hui, where do you say the capital is?" Can we see each other? ”

"The capital is in the north of Yizhou, far, far away, and you have to cross a long, long river and many mountains."

"You're still so honest." Sister Xuan pursed her lips, as if she was about to cry.

"Sister Hui, will you never come to Yizhou in your life? What if I miss you? Where do I go to find you? I've had you for as long as I can remember, but now that you're leaving, where am I going to find you? Sister Xuan finally pulled Sister Hui'er's sleeve and cried out and kept asking what to do, Sister Hui also fell with strings of tears, and hugged Sister Xuan, and Ayi couldn't help but hug her.

The three of them were planning a happy farewell banquet but ended up crying, before leaving, Sister Xuan and Ayi's eyes were swollen, Sister Xuan was even more reluctant to leave by pulling Sister Hui'er's sleeve, or the mother-in-law next to her was hard to pull it away.

On the fourth day of October, it is advisable to travel, early in the morning, the Chu Mansion will open the middle door, the carriage servants are already waiting at the door, Chu Jinmin led the Qin family to walk in front, followed by Sister Hui, Sister Lian and the two brothers held by the nurse.

"Master, Yizhou has good mountains and rivers, in fact, it's not bad, I feel like I'm used to it." Watching the subordinate drop the key, the Qin family felt sad for a while.

Chu Jinmin patted Qin's hand lightly: "Jingli is the home where we grew up, but in the future, when we are old and Brother Xuan grows up, we will throw all the burdens to him, and we will come back here to live for a while." ”

Qin looked at Chu Jinmin and smiled softly, nodding his head.

The group walked to the city gate, but saw that Jiang Zhifu, Lord Li, Zhou and several wives were all at the city gate, and several people said goodbye, and Ayi also came in person. Sister Xuan only wrote a letter, asking the big girl next to her to send a sachet of Shu brocade and a jade safety buckle.

"This sachet is made by our young lady herself, it is the ancient recipe you said last time, Miss tried it for more than half a month to make it, this peace buckle is also Miss personally went to the Black Mountain Temple to find a monk to open the light and pray for blessings, Miss said she will not come, I am afraid that you will cry again when you can't leave."

Sister Hui nodded tearfully, and Ayi patted Sister Hui'er on the shoulder.

Waiting for Sister Xuan's maid over there to explain everything that should be explained, Ayi pulled Sister Hui aside and said: "This is a book written by a down-and-out scholar in the previous dynasty, I look at it is wonderful, this is still a few days ago in the study wandering around, quietly bought, now give it to you on the road to relieve boredom." There are also a few of the incense sticks I developed myself, you usually like me to make them, but when you come to Beijing in the future, you have to be diligent and make them yourself. Sister Hui solemnly took it and nodded again and again

"I heard some things about your capital a few days ago, and how proud the people in Beijing are, you have to be careful when you enter Beijing, if there is something unsatisfactory, you will endure it, I really panicked and wrote to me to say, although we are not together, but we are still good sisters." After speaking, he pointed to the jade plum on each other's waists.

Li Yuyi has always been cold, but now there are obvious wrinkles between her eyebrows, obviously she is worried about Sister Hui'er, and she said so many intimate words like coaxing a child, Sister Hui was moved for a while, and threw herself into Ayi's arms, only remembering to nod again and again, and couldn't say anything.

It was Qin's mother who came to urge herself, so she returned to the carriage and followed everyone on the road.
