Mrs. Wang looked at the dozen boxes of silver on the ground, the smile on the corner of her mouth became even bigger, and she said to Qin Keqing in a friendly manner: "I forgot if you didn't mention this, our house has not been rich all these years." With these filial piety from you this year, it can be regarded as a good year. ”

"Our uncle is worried that the lord and his wife are worried about the silver, so I sent the silver over early, which can be regarded as sharing the worries of the old man and wife." Qin Keqing said reservedly.

When Mrs. Wang and Qin Keqing were talking here, they were already occupied in the Rongxi Hall, and they ran from everywhere to see the lively minions.

These people looked at the dozen or so boxes in the lobby, and their eyes were shining with gold. I can't wait to get all this money into my arms.

And at this time, a beautiful lady walked out of the backyard, she was Jia Zheng's favorite concubine Aunt Zhao, he ignored it today, but when he heard his little maid come over and tell him that the Wuyang Hou Mansion sent more than a dozen large boxes to the house, which were filled with silver, she ran over curiously to take a look.

As soon as Aunt Zhao came to the lobby, she saw Qin Keqing and Mrs. Wang talking in the lobby, and in the center of the lobby, more than a dozen boxes were all opened, and they were full of bright silver. And Aunt Zhao looked at Qin Keqing, who was chatting and laughing with Mrs. Wang in the lobby, and felt that it was so an eyesore. The anger in her heart couldn't be suppressed, although she told herself that she must be patient and never collide with Qin Keqing, but she couldn't suppress her jealousy for a moment.

And after Qin Keqing and Mrs. Wang in the lobby finished chatting, they began to hand over, and Wu Xindeng, the housekeeper in charge of Yinku Island, saved Mrs. Wang's message and came to the lobby, his eyes turned green when he saw the silver.

This Wu Xindeng has been the head of the treasury since his ancestors, and in the past few lifetimes, he has used the authority of the treasury to pull a lot of things home, but since Lai Mama was defeated, he also began to converge, but later Lin Zhixiao served as the chief manager, and Wu Xindeng had fewer opportunities.

In addition, there is not much silver in the house, and he doesn't dare to start with it, the price of this silver has sent so much silver, Wu Xindeng thought in his heart that no matter how he could get one or two thousand oil and water from it.

The two sides immediately counted the silver, and the total was 50,000 taels of silver, neither more nor less. After the acquaintance, Qin Keqing took his leave and sent away these pro-soldiers, Qin Keqing did not return immediately, but turned around and went to Aunt Zhou's small courtyard.

As soon as Qin Keqing entered the small courtyard, he heard continuous laughter in the house. The maid at the door saw Qin Keqing and hurriedly stepped forward to greet Qin Keqing: "I've seen the big grandma, the big grandma is auspicious." ”

Aunt Zhou heard the voice of the maid outside in the house, and knew that Qin Keqing had come to see her, and he was very satisfied with Qin Keqing, the daughter-in-law. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also smart and capable, she speaks and does everything and her tone is gentle, and everyone in the house admires this grandmother very much, and so far no one has said that she is bad.

Qin Keqing entered Aunt Zhou's main room, only to see Aunt Zhou sitting on the bed, Chuncao and Qiaolian accompanying each other.

When Chuncao and Qiaolian saw Qin Keqing, they hurriedly got out of bed to give her a salute, and now the two of them are dressed differently than before, each of them is wearing gold and silver, and the clothes on their bodies are all silk and satin. In terms of money, Qin Keqing did not treat them badly, so although the two of them have no positions now, they still have great respect for Qin Keqing.

Chuncao saw Qin Keqing coming in from outside, and she didn't know where some dust was sticking to her body, so she naturally picked up the broom on the bed and gently swept the dust on her, Qin Keqing also stretched out and asked her to clean herself, it was so natural between the two. After that, Qin Keqing sat next to Aunt Zhou. Chuncao and Qiaolian could only wait for them underground like the other maids at this time.

Aunt Zhou pulled Qin Keqing by her side and asked happily, "You have been so busy in the past two days, why do you have time to come to me?" ”

"Today, I will send 50,000 taels of silver to this side according to the uncle's instructions, so I will come to see my aunt by the way after I am done." Qin Keqing said obediently.

When Aunt Zhou heard that she was going to send 50,000 taels of silver here, her face immediately became ugly, and then she asked Qin Keqing anxiously, "You just got married and you don't have a lot of money, why do you still want to send silver when you have everything here?" "It seems that she is the silver who feels sorry for her son.

"Aunt doesn't know yet, I heard the uncle say that Yin has been eating grain here for a long time, and now they have begun to move the silver in the treasury, if the uncle doesn't give the silver, some people won't even be able to eat." Qin Keqing also gossiped to Aunt Zhou.

Before Aunt Zhou could speak, Qiaolian next to her couldn't help it: "Their family can't eat enough, why do they want our silver?" ”

Aunt Zhou felt that it made sense when she heard Qiaolian's words, so she didn't stop her, but looked up at Qin Keqing, she knew that Qin Keqing had read books and had the ability, so she wanted Qin Keqing to give her a word or two.

"This is what the uncle promised the old lady and the old man back then, after all, it is his own flesh and blood, and blood is thicker than water, how can the uncle watch his rich parents fall here. Therefore, sending these silvers to Rongguo Mansion every year can be regarded as letting them support the façade, otherwise if they move the silver of their ancestors, they will be incompetent for future generations. Qin Keqing told Aunt Zhou the reason why Jia Ke told him.

After listening to Qin Keqing's words, Aunt Zhou's eyes couldn't help but turn red, she was feeling sorry for her son, thinking that her son was too bitter, he was not valued in the house since he was a child, and he had to go out to work hard at a young age. He was left to worry about so many things, but these gentlemen in the house only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and didn't care about him at all.

Qin Keqing saw that Aunt Zhou's eyes were red and she wanted to cry in a low voice, so she hurriedly stepped forward and took her hand and asked, "Auntie, what's wrong?" ”

Aunt Zhou also held Qin Keqing's hand and said to her with a crying voice: "Your uncle, my son has suffered since he was a child. When I was in this house, I was the only one to worry about him, how many times he was bullied and hid in the quilt and cried, I had no choice but to cry with him. In the end, there was no choice but to go out and work alone, and now that he has some achievements, these people will come to lie on him and drink blood. I know he is bitter, and now I will hand him over to you, and you must take good care of him for me. ”

Qin Keqing always thought that Jia Ke was favored in the Rongguo Mansion, and then with the strength of the Rongguo Mansion he was able to get ahead and worship the general, but now listening to Aunt Zhou's words is not the case at all, it seems that he suffered when he was a child, so he worked hard to achieve today's achievements.

At this time, Chuncao was also on the side to help, "The uncle was so sick that he died, and my aunt couldn't go to beg my wife to ask for a good doctor." In the end, it was the aunt who fought for her life, crying and begging in front of the old lady, and the old lady was moved to invite the doctor, otherwise the uncle would have gone that time. Chuncao now remembered the danger at that time, and couldn't help but shudder.

Qin Keqing and Qiaolian didn't know the scene at that time, so they asked Aunt Zhou what was going on. Aunt Zhou also wanted them to know how Jia Ke survived, so she said to them: "At that time, it was said that he was suffering from the wind and cold, but in fact, it was just that Mrs. punished your uncle, because your uncle often competed with Second Master Zhu at that time, and he also had the upper hand. ”

Chuncao continued: "At that time, the uncle was majestic, whether it was endorsement or learning, he was much stronger than the second master. ”

Qin Keqing knew that Jia Ke had abandoned his pen and followed Ge, so he asked, "In this case, why didn't you study in the end?" ”

Aunt Zhou's eyes flickered when she heard her words, Qiaolian was smart and icing, and when she saw Aunt Zhou's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, she immediately understood, "I'm afraid that Uncle had to do this at that time, if he was studying, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have his life." ”

Chuncao said to the side: "I think it's the same, the uncle memorized the book so well at that time, and suddenly one day he didn't know anything." Mr. only treats the uncle as a rotten wood and leaves it alone. Now that I heard Qiao Lian say this, I'm afraid the uncle already understood at that time. ”

They thought of any situation, but they didn't expect Jia Ke to come through time, and he didn't know anything about the Four Books and Five Classics, and the commentaries and explanations of the Great Confucians, if he was asked to memorize these, let alone take the test Xiucai, he wouldn't be able to pass the first game of the county exam. In addition, Jia Ke's original body, although he recites it very well, he has a half-understanding of it, and to be honest, it is much worse than Jia Zhu.

When Aunt Zhou saw this, she told Qin Keqing the rest of the things, "My son is an ambitious person, although the family can't study anymore." But he didn't let go of the retribution in his heart, so he found a reason for the old lady to send him to Xia Caozhuang, where he practiced martial arts hard. A few years have been like a day, and this is what we are today. ”

After listening to Aunt Zhou's words, Chuncao also said with emotion: "Back then, I followed the uncle to serve him, when we were in Xia Caozhuang, we only lived in a courtyard close to each other, and the uncle began to practice dancing every day before dawn, and he didn't come back until it was dark." It was a bitter time. ”

Although Chuncao said bitterly, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile, and she will miss those days very much in the future.

Qiaolian's eyes also began to blur at this time, she was still an ignorant girl at the time, she only wanted to follow Jia Ke to be prosperous and rich, but after following Jia Ke for all these years, she felt that she could not do without.

Qin Keqing didn't expect Jia Ke's life experience to be like this, his current achievements are all his own hard work, although he has not had his parents by his side since he was a child, but he is also a fine cloth and jade food, and has not suffered any difficulties, but Jia Ke has to fight for his future since he was a child, thinking of the suffering he suffered along the way, thinking of the pain when he gave up studying, thinking of his bloody struggle on the battlefield, thinking of his near death on the battlefield, thinking that he was so strong in front of everyone, and never showed a trace of weakness. Such a man is really a big man who stands up to the sky.

Qin Keqing thought in his heart that he must love him more in the future, now that he is the closest person around him, he is the only one who can care about him and comfort him on the side.
