Qin Da and Qin Er came to Qingyuan to help Qin Boyang with the matter of welcoming their relatives, but they didn't have much contact with the Ji family. They are not too busy to separate, based on Ji Xiaotang's observation on the side, they are suspected of deliberately avoiding the Ji family.

It's not obvious in front of Mrs. Ji, but when it comes to Master Ji Second and Master Ji, it's much more obvious. Qin Boyang also didn't seem to want his two cousins to have more contact with the Ji family.

As for Grandma Qin and Grandma Qin, they didn't come, and only sent two daughters-in-law who were in charge. It is said that the Qin family has just returned to Huaiyuan, and there are too many things to take care of at home.

Ji Xiaoyun was about to get married at the time, and these things couldn't be seen at all. But when he said these words today, he is even more sure that someone provoked and provoked him.

It's hard to say anything else, but this matter must have been said by someone from the Qin family.

"Oops......" What Ji Xiaotang said was reasonable, and Mrs. Ji couldn't help but nod. Xiaoyun's mother-in-law is an honest person, she doesn't talk much, and she doesn't have so much thought. It shouldn't have been her. It can't be what Boyang's kid said. Isn't it, among the Qin family, are there any people who are not worried? ”

"I just called Lamei and Lilac to ask, Xiaoyun is surrounded by people from our family, and there is no particularly shameful Qin family." Mrs. Ji said. Because she was worried about Ji Xiaoyun, she arranged for Ji Xiaoyun very thoroughly. No one from the Qin family can avoid the Ji family's companions and say provocative words in front of Ji Xiaoyun.

"Oh......" Mrs. Ji frowned, and said again after a while, "This, maybe I can't see it for a while." ”

Old Lady Ji refused to suspect Qin Boyang and the Wang family no matter what.

"Their mother and son are reasonable people, where would they do such an ungrateful thing! There must be some subordinates who are not good. Wait until I call Xiaoyun and her mother-in-law. Ask her well. Such a subordinate was sent away earlier, lest the family be at peace. Mrs. Ji said.

"If Grandmother does this. My sister was not happy when she was the first one. Ji Xiaotang said.

Mrs. Ji thought about it and stopped talking.

Ji Xiaoyun and Mrs. Ji came out of Mrs. Ji's courtyard, and when they returned to Mrs. Ji's house, they saw Mr. Ji Er drinking tea on the couch.

"Where have you been?" Second Master Ji asked.

Mrs. Ji Er told everything about Fang Cai.

Second Master Ji also frowned.

"What's wrong with Boyang?" Mrs. Ji asked Mr. Ji again.

"There's nothing wrong with that." What Master Ji Er said was very pertinent, he mainly tested and taught Qin Boyang's articles. "Although I was admitted to Xiucai, my foundation is not solid. This kid is very smart, and the articles are full of flowers. But there is nothing to say. If he refuses to work hard to change his fame along the way, I am afraid that he will have to stop there. ”

As for family matters. Second Master Ji also talked to Qin Boyang a little, but he didn't find any flaws.

"This uncle is extremely smart, let's compare Xiaoyun with him, hey. It's just a silly girl. Second Master Ji sighed. For this. When the two were married, Master Ji Er knew.

Being smart is not a bad thing, as long as you are willing to use it in the right way. And with the Ji family here, Ji Xiaoyun's life in the Qin family will not be sad.

"Then ask Mama Cheng to come to the house and ask." Second Master Ji thought about it and said again.

Second Mrs. Ji nodded, and immediately ordered to go down, and find an excuse to call Mama Cheng back to talk.

Second Master Ji's gaze turned to Ji Xiaotang again.

"Xiaotang, before the banquet, I saw you biting your uncle on the ear. What did you do without me? ”

"Daddy, nothing else." Ji Xiaotang smiled. "Uncle arranged for someone to go to Huaiyuan, and after a long time, I'll ask."

The Ji family doesn't have any property in Huaiyuan, and if there is anything else that Master Ji has arranged for someone to go for a long time, he must have gone to visit the Qin family.

"It must have been your idea again." Ji Er said.

"I just think it's strange, I can't put it down." Ji Xiaotang said, "Check what you say, if there is anything wrong, everyone should discuss it early." If it's all good, we can rest assured. ”

"Hmm." Second Master Ji nodded lightly, and did not say that Ji Xiaotang did not do well. "When you come back and find something, tell me immediately."

"Okay, Daddy." When Second Master Ji said this, he actually agreed with Ji Xiaotang's approach.

The next morning, the Ji family took a small sedan chair and took Mama Cheng back.

"Mama has worked hard." Bringing Mama Cheng to Mrs. Ji's upper house, Ji Xiaotang smiled and asked Mama Cheng to sit down.

"I don't dare to say anything hard about what is within my bounds." Mama Cheng said.

"Mama is in Qinghe Hutong these days......" After a little greeting, Mrs. Ji Er hurriedly turned to the topic.

"My wife and the third girl specially called me back, because they found something wrong." Mama Cheng: This is not a question, but an affirmative.

"Yes." Ji Xiaotang nodded, and briefly told Mama Cheng about Ji Xiaoyun's recent changes, especially what she said yesterday.

“…… entrusted Mama and asked others if they didn't know, Mama must know. Why did Xiaoyun have such a change, and who instigated her? Mrs. Ji asked.

“…… Ashamed! Before Mama Cheng spoke, she was ashamed.

Ji Xiaotang knew that things were not simple.

“…… There's no conclusive evidence, and I wouldn't say it if it were anyone else. But my wife and the girl trusted me so much, and I didn't dare to avoid suspicion. …… Around the second girl, except for the uncle, no one can convince the second girl like this, and have such an impact on the second girl! ”

"It turned out to be Boyang!" Mrs. Ji Er was surprised.

"I don't dare to make it up randomly, I've never heard my uncle say anything bad to the Ji family to the second girl. On the contrary, sometimes the girl commits leftism, and the aunt persuades the girl, all she says is the words of the beautiful scenery and the moon, even I can't help but say that the uncle is knowledgeable. The girl listened to her uncle's words very much, even if she changed to an old lady, she didn't listen to the girl, but as soon as the uncle said it, the girl was willing to listen. ”

"Isn't Xiaoyun's mother-in-law?" Mrs. Ji Er didn't know what she was thinking, so she asked Mama Cheng.

Mama Cheng shook her head.

"Mrs. Qin was there every time she talked to the girl. She didn't talk to the girl in private. "The only one who can avoid Mama Cheng and have enough opportunity and time to brainwash Ji Xiaoyun is Qin Boyang.

Mrs. Ji Er frowned for a long time. called Mama Cheng to come closer, and inquired carefully about Ji Xiaoyun and Qin Boyang's life after marriage. Mrs. Ji Er's voice was extremely low, and she seemed to avoid Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang knew the opportunity, and retreated slightly.

However, some of the words of Mrs. Ji Er and Mama Cheng still got into his ears. Mrs. Ji Er asked Mama Cheng if Qin Boyang was too close to any girl. He also asked Mama Cheng, Qin Boyang and the Wang family if they coveted Ji Xiaoyun's dowry.

Mama Cheng's answer seemed to make Mrs. Ji very relieved.

Qin Boyang is very dedicated to Ji Xiaoyun, and he is also good to the few girls in the Qin family. Whether the Ji family married the big or small girls in the past, they were all serious and never close.

Mama Cheng also told Mrs. Ji that once Ji Xiaoyun was not in the house. Qin Boyang came back from outside. A little girl brought tea to Qin Boyang, and was seen by Ji Xiaoyun, who was back in the house. Ji Xiaoyun also lost her temper because of this, and let people beat the little girl, and then sent the little girl to the outer courtyard to be a rough man.

The little girl is only twelve or thirteen years old, and she is not very good-looking, but she is a little bit beautiful.

Ji Xiaoyun turned out to be a person full of vinegar!

This surprised Mrs. Ji Er again.

As for Ji Xiaoyun's dowry, the postures of the Wang family and Qin Boyang were very correct, and the Wang family didn't mention this matter at all. And Qin Boyang ......

"The girl once proposed to let her uncle help take care of her several dowries. My uncle shook his head and refused. said that the master and wife have arranged everything here, and he is not good at management, so he has to concentrate on studying and earn a life for the girl. ”

After asking Mama Cheng, Mrs. Ji couldn't help but be confused.

Qin Boyang did a perfect job in the few things she was most worried about, which made her very relieved, and she also felt that this aunt had a good character. But the changes in Ji Xiaoyun, and the words that came out......

"Could it be that we are too careful? Xiaoyun's kid ......"

Ji Xiaoyun was taught by Mrs. Ji, and she followed Mrs. Ji in many aspects of her temperament.

"My sister can't say those words on her own." Ji Xiaoyun said simply.

This Qin Boyang is really reassuring, but also unreassuring, Mrs. Ji Er sighed, and was very entangled for a while.

Mama Cheng stopped talking, and looked at Ji Xiaotang.

"Mother, now that my sister and wife are in Qingyuan, they are right under our noses. Even if he wanted to do those things, could he do it? As long as he's not stupid, he won't show it. Ji Xiaotang said.

Mama Cheng nodded slightly.

"You mean, Xiaoyun is not married to a person?" Mrs. Ji said.

Ji Xiaotang didn't speak, and Mama Cheng didn't speak.

"I'll just say, this family business was done too hastily!" Mrs. Ji Er sighed, but what is the use of saying this now. "What can I do?"

"Mother, don't worry. Daddy should have known it a long time ago. Ji Xiaotang said busily, "As long as my sister's family is left in Qingyuan and our family is taken care of, Qin Boyang is a wolf, and he has to pretend to be a sheep for the rest of his life." ”

It's just that in this way, the Ji family will have to work harder.

But for the sake of Ji Xiaoyun, Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji are obviously not afraid of hard work.

"The girl has some complaints about me, but she doesn't dare to say it clearly." Mama Cheng said suddenly.

Ji Xiaotang was not surprised, because Ji Xiaoyun had already complained about the process in front of her.

"She's such a character, please don't take it to heart. We are all on Mama's side, and although Mama is as she is, she doesn't care whether she is happy or not. Ji Xiaotang said.

"That's exactly how it should be." Mrs. Ji Er is also a person who understands the truth, and hurriedly said, "We all remember Mama's hard work and hard work. Mama was able to save Xiaoyun, and she was the great benefactor of our husband and wife. ”

Mama Cheng had no choice but to nod in agreement. When she agreed to accompany Ji Xiaoyun to get married, she actually expected today's situation. It's hard work, and it's not pleased. Fortunately, it was the person who understood what she entrusted.

Mrs. Ji was about to leave Mama Cheng for dinner, and Mama Cheng shook her head.

"The wife and the girl asked me to come back to talk, and when I go back, the second girl is afraid that she will have something to say. I'll go back sooner and save some trouble. Mama Cheng said.

Mrs. Ji Er was very reluctant to go, and said a lot of words of gratitude, so that she sent Mama Cheng back.

"Thanks to Mama Cheng." Mrs. Ji said.

Ji Xiaotang nodded, if it weren't for Mama Cheng, no one would have been able to do such an errand. In fact, this errand is difficult for Mama Cheng.

In the blink of an eye, it's May, and it's already the season of early summer. In the spring of the seventh year of Longqing, there was a general drought in the prefectures and counties of Ren'an Prefecture, and the situation here in Qingyuan was slightly better, but it only rained. However, even this rain will not really alleviate the drought.

There is already a general anxiety among the people, because the Ji family grange has long been digging a deep well at the expense of money and manpower, it is better than other farms, but compared with previous years, it is much worse.

Because of this, the Ji family is very busy, and it is indispensable to be affected by the anxiety of the people, that is, Mrs. Ji, who usually never asks about these things, heard the rumors and called the second master Ji and the third master to ask if it was a famine year.

There are already a lot of things, and Ji Xiaoyun is not worried about it.

Ji Xiaoyun's life is very good, the Wang family is the most kind mother-in-law, Qin Boyang and Ji Xiaoyun are loving husband and wife, and they are also respectful and polite to their father-in-law's family.

It should have been worry-free, if it wasn't for Ji Xiaoyun coming back and saying that she would be going to Huaiyuan.

Ji Xiaoyun didn't dare to tell Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji this, she came to Ji's house two days ago and told Old Mrs. Ji in private. Of course, Mrs. Ji was reluctant to give up her granddaughter, so she didn't nod. As a result, Ji Xiaoyun was very unhappy, and cried in front of Mrs. Ji, and finally left in a huff.

Mrs. Ji couldn't hide her words in her heart, and when Second Master Ji came to her to say goodbye, she told her about it. And Second Master Ji turned his head and discussed this matter with Second Mrs. Ji, and naturally did not hide it from Ji Xiaotang.

"Or, call the in-laws' wife and Boyang to come and ask." Mrs. Ji said.

"Mother, don't." Ji Xiaotang hurriedly said, "Calling them here won't help." Let's just take it as if it's not like that, and wait and see what they want. ”

"Well, you have to calm down first." Second Master Ji nodded.

At this time, the person sent to Huaiyuan by Master Ji San finally returned. This time, I finally found out the useful news.

The Qin family lost all their property in Qinzhou, sold the house to pay off the debts, and had no way to return to their ancestral hometown. On the ancestral side, after all, there is still an old house to live in, and there are also a few acres of land left by the ancestors that are not allowed to be bought and sold, and there is always enough food and clothing.

However, it is only food and clothing.

"That's the case, Qin Boyang, this kid, it's so tight to hide from us!" Second Master Ji was taken aback.

"No wonder Qin Da and Qin Er want to avoid us and refuse to talk to us more!" Mrs. Ji Er also said. It must be for fear of being asked by the Ji family to find a flaw. (To be continued......)
