Chapter 226: Gift-giving
() Nothing to say all night.
Early the next morning, Qin Niang got up early to freshen up and dress up, and went back to Yang's Mansion with Gu Chen.
The Lu family and Mrs. Yang got the letter the first day, and knew that Qin Niang would come back in the morning, so they waited at the Yimen early in the morning.
Qin Niang got out of the carriage, and Mrs. Yang immediately greeted her: "Qin'er! ”
Qin Niang's eyes were hot, and she couldn't care about her image, so she immediately pounced: "Grandma, I miss you so much." ”
Lu stood aside and followed Silly Le, until the grandfather and grandson had enough hugs, and then reminded: "Mother, it's cold outside, let's go into the house first." ”
As soon as Lu reminded him, several women were surrounded by a group of mothers-in-law and walked towards the inner courtyard.
Gu Chen is a foreign man, so it was originally inconvenient to enter the inner courtyard, but he came back with Qin Niang today, and there was no male host in the mansion to entertain him, so he had to follow him to the old lady's courtyard.
Sitting in the warm and coaxing second room, the maid retreated to the side after serving them tea.
After taking a sip of tea, Mrs. Yang looked at Qin Niang and said, "Look at you, this kid, you have lost weight after going out for a while." ”
Gu Chen, who was on the side, suddenly felt that his skin was tight, and when he met the eyes of his mother-in-law and the ancestor, he suddenly sat like a needle felt.
"Mother-in-law, grandma, it's not good for me, I don't worry that Qin'er is alone in the capital, so I insist on dragging her to Yao County with me, where the disaster is serious, and life is more difficult, so she suffers a lot of grievances." Gu Chen didn't dare to shirk, so he could only honestly admit his mistakes.
"Mother, grandma, don't blame him, I actually want to see my father and eldest brother." Qin Niang picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly.
The scent of tea permeated her teeth, and the heat slid down her throat and into her stomach, making her feel a lot more comfortable.
"You, you've only been married for a long time, and you know how to protect him." Old Madam Yang said angrily.
Lu saw that the relationship between the two was quite harmonious, so he didn't say much.
Next, several people talked about the situation in Yao County and how long it would take for the Yang family father and son to return to Beijing.
Gu Chen and Qin Niang both consciously skipped Tang Wan and did not mention it, and only roughly talked about the disaster relief situation at that time.
"Grandma, mother, you don't need to worry, Dad and eldest brother will be back in the next year, you just need to prepare for the eldest brother's marriage." Qin Niang took a bite of candy and squinted her eyes in enjoyment.
It's better to know her preferences and tastes, and importantly, to have relatives around.
In her mother's house, she never needs to worry about someone stabbing her in the back, and she doesn't need to spend her brains and hearts to guard against another person.
Her mother's home will always be her safe haven.
A few people chatted for a while, and seeing that it was almost noon, Lu ordered someone to set the meal.
At this time, a little girl in Tsing Yi came in with a curtain and reported: "Old lady, madam, Lord Feng personally brought a lot of gifts to the door, saying that he wanted to thank the eldest lady for saving her life. ”
Old Madam Yang frowned, and Lu also looked inexplicable.
Yesterday, Qin Niang and Fang Yuanyuan went to the martial arts arena to watch the lively things, and they didn't have time to talk about it!
Therefore, at this time, the two hostesses of the Yang family looked very confused.
So, Qin Niang briefly recounted what happened in the stands yesterday, and at the end, she was puzzled: "This Lord Feng is really interesting, I want to thank me for not sending things to the Gu family, but I want to send them to my mother's house, is it possible that he doesn't know that I am married?" ”
After all, Mrs. Yang is old and accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, as soon as Qin Niang said it at this time, she vaguely understood in her heart, and said to the little girl in Tsing Yi who came in to report: "You went to reject Lord Feng, just say that my Yang family did not show favor to them, please go back." ”
The girl in Tsing Yi answered and withdrew.
"Mother, wouldn't it be bad to lose Lord Feng's face like this?" Lu said with some concern.
"Hmph, this Lord Feng's heart can be punished, Qin'er saved his daughter with virtue in revenge, he is not grateful, but he still wants to pull my Yang family into the water, there is no door!" Old Madam Yang said, waving her big hand, "Don't worry about him, let's have a feast, Qin'er is hungry." ”
Qin Niang didn't understand why Lord Feng wanted to send the gift to the Yang family at first, but after Old Madam Yang said this, she quickly understood.
The relationship between Lord Feng and the envoy in the Northern Regions must not be very good, and the princess of the Northern Regions whipped his daughter in public, and it stands to reason that he should go to the Holy Lord to reason.
But at noon, he chose to come to Yang's house with gifts with great fanfare when there were the most people.
Isn't this because I'm afraid that the people of the Northern Regions don't know who the person who stopped the princess of the Northern Regions yesterday is?
Although Qin Niang has a grudge with the princess of the Northern Regions, Qin Niang is now married to Gu Chen, and even if the princess of the Northern Regions wants to find trouble, she should go to the Gu family to find her.
Now that this Lord Feng is so troubled, most of the grudge-holding Northern Regions Duke thinks that Qin Niang's behavior yesterday represents the Yang family, and the Yang family is dissatisfied with their Northern Regions people, and takes the opportunity to show them color.
Qin Niang, as the wife of the Gu family, backed by the Yang family, was originally just her personal behavior, but now she was so troubled by Lord Feng, it has become a matter of the two families.
Gu Yang's family was dragged into the water by Lord Feng, and if the Holy Lord blamed him in the future, he would be able to pull two big backers immediately.
I have to say that there is really a father and a daughter, and she still thinks that after yesterday's incident, Feng Yao can wake up a little, and don't go so brainless to be a gun for others in the future.
She thought that in the face of national affairs, this Lord Feng could carry it clearly.
Unexpectedly, she really overestimated the father and daughter.
"This Feng family is too despicable and shameless, what do the grievances between them and the Northern Regions have to do with us? Is this meant to be forcibly dragged on us? Lu's mind turned around and he understood the Tao in it, secretly spitting that this Feng Zhun is not a thing.
"Like yesterday's situation, if I don't stop the capital today, I can be passed on to a first-class poisonous woman, and I also have a personal relationship with the princess of the Northern Regions, I will be troubled." For Feng Zhun like this, Qin Niang only felt sick in her heart.
No wonder he can teach such an uneducated and shallow-eyed daughter, it turns out that he is such a person himself.
He only wanted to make an alliance, but he never thought about what kind of joke his behavior would make those people in the Northern Regions laugh.
At this time, the little girl in Tsing Yi ran in again, and this time there was a little more anxiety in her tone: "Old lady, madam, then Lord Feng said that if the Yang family does not accept gifts, he will not leave." ”
When Mrs. Yang heard this, she suddenly stood up from her chair, and the crutches in her hand clicked: "What? Is that scoundrel still dependent on our family? ”
She couldn't believe her ears, such a person was still an official of the imperial court!
What's the difference between this and a scoundrel?
"Grandma, don't worry, I'll go out and have a look." Gu Chen put it down quickly and said comfortingly.
Soon, Gu Chen had a gust of wind
He walked out.
Old Madam Yang was not at ease, and said to the grandmother beside her: "You go over and take a look, then if Feng Zhun is a scoundrel, you will let the guards in the mansion call me out." ”
She still doesn't believe it, there is no male owner in the family, and she can't be bullied by such a shameless villain.
"Grandma, don't be angry first, it's not worth it if you're angry." Qin Niang stroked Old Madam Yang's chest, helped her sit back on the chair and said, "Gu Chen has already gone out to send him, so Feng Zhun may not be able to bargain when he meets him, so don't worry." ”
When Mrs. Yang heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, patted Qin Niang's hand and said, "Thanks to you for coming back today." ”
Qin Niang tilted her head and rubbed on Mrs. Yang's arm, and said with some reluctance: "It's a pity that Qin'er can't be by grandma's side every day." ”
When Mrs. Yang heard this, her heart was hot, and she patted her head and said dotingly: "Silly child, you are already married, why do you always want to go back to your parents' house?" Grandma is old, even if you guard me every day, you won't be able to stay with me for long. ”
When Qin Niang heard this, she immediately feigned anger and said: "Grandma, you are not allowed to say that, you want to live a long life, and you have to wait to hold your great-grandson!" Don't talk nonsense. ”
Grandma Yang smiled: "Okay, okay, what Qin'er says is what, let's eat quickly, the food will be cold for a while, and when Achen comes back, I will ask the kitchen to make him a new one." ”
A few people swept the unhappy ones aside, and then they picked up their smiling faces again and began to eat.
Lu Shi said a little sourly: "As soon as Qin'er came back, she knew that she was sticking to her grandmother, and my mother felt that it was a little redundant." ”
Old Madam Yang hugged Qin Niang with an arrogant face and said, "Next generation, do you understand?" ”
Lu smiled: "Yes, yes, what you said is right." ”
The family ate happily, and after a while, Gu Chen came back again.
"How? Did the people drive away? Qin Niang asked.
"Drove away, including what he had brought with him." Gu Chen said with a relaxed face.
"You're not rough with anyone, are you?" Qin Niang looked at him with a very suspicious look.
Gu Chen pointed with his chin to the old lady who stood beside Mrs. Yang as soon as she entered the door: "You can ask Mama, I will send people away without blood." ”
Otherwise, where would he have come back so quickly?
"Uncle really didn't move." The old lady said truthfully.
Qin Niang lowered her head and picked up the rice, insisting on the habit of eating without saying a word, Gu Chen thought that she would not ask again, but unexpectedly, when she put the bowl away, she chased after her and asked, "How did you send people away?" ”
She didn't believe it, so since Feng Zhun dared to make a posture just now to send the things he brought to the gate of the Yang Mansion, he would be easily coaxed away?
According to Gu Chen's temperament, he may have taken someone else's handle again, so he forced the other party to leave so simply.
Gu Chen saw her expectant look, and it was rare not to give him a look, so he explained honestly.
"I didn't actually say anything to him, I just told him something, and when he was scared, he even ran home to deal with it." Gu Chen looked understated, and there was a little smugness between his eyebrows.
Qin Niang was so tickled by him that she secretly kicked him under the table.
Gu Chen glanced at her aggrievedly, but he didn't dare to sell Guan Zi anymore.
