Chapter 191: Knife Mouth Tofu Heart
A maid with a thoughtful appearance, a gentle expression, wearing a lake green armor, about eighteen years old, walked in from the outer room and stood in front of Huo Baoying, this is Hongling.
Hongling was sold on the street to bury her father, and was bought back by Qi Jiao, when she bought it back, this girl was only twelve, and six years have passed, and Hongling has also become Qi Jiao's personal maid.
At that time, Qi Jiao didn't think about opening her face to Hongling to be Qi Dongrui's concubine, Qi Dongrui has not taken a concubine for so many years, and he has never given birth to a son, his mother-in-law Huo Baoying has mentioned it several times, and the person arranged by her mother-in-law might as well choose her side.
However, Hongling didn't agree, Qi Dongrui vetoed it even more, and resolutely refused to accept concubines, it just so happened that Qi Jiao was pregnant, and Huo Baoying also stopped, but now she gave birth to another daughter, and Qi Jiao was under a lot of pressure in her heart.
Not long ago, I heard that Huo Baoying wanted Qi Dongrui to marry a flat wife, but now there is no news, but the stone in Qi Jiao's heart still hasn't fallen, and what makes her even more worried is that Huo Baoying's attitude towards herself in the past few days has never been better, Qi Jiao is afraid that something will go wrong, maybe her mother-in-law has changed her routine, but she has never mentioned this topic again.
"Hongling, wait a while, you will go to me to get the blood swallow over, and stew some for the eldest daughter-in-law every day, oh, by the way, you have to ask Dr. Huang first, whether it is medicinal or not, remember to ask tomorrow, you can stew it, and then slowly make up for it after taking the medicine." Huo Baoying looked at Hongling, then picked up Qi Jiao's hand and patted it with a loving face.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, Hongling's maid is intimate and powerful by your side, I think it's best to leave this matter to Hongling, but I still have to ask you what you mean." Huo Baoying said with a smile.
Qi Jiao, Qi Dongrui, and Hongling were all nervous, thinking that they were going to bring up the old things again.
"Mother, you say." Qi Jiao said with difficulty.
"You also know that it is rare for them to come to Shun'an Mansion once in Jiuli, so they have to go around the city well, but after all, they are not familiar with the place, and we must take a good belt as in-laws, I let Mama Wan and Su Shulin go to them to serve, but it is not suitable for no maid, I think it is most suitable for Hongling to go."
"How are you doing here, you can tell your in-laws about it, how they live here, Hongling can tell you when he comes back, it's no better, what do you think?"
Qi Jiao understood, but what she heard was too different from the question she had imagined before, and she didn't react for a while, "Mother, is this the case?" ”
"It's a big deal." Huo Baoying said seriously, "Qi Jiao, I was negligent with my mother before, and every year in the future, you and the boss have to go back to Jinshui Town to see your mother's family, and your daughter will go back to her mother's house in the second year of junior high school, this is a custom, although your father and mother are gone, but the eldest brother is all there, and there are fewer contacts, and the feelings will be light." ”
"And your eldest brother and them, we used to be inhospitable, and they came once a year before, but they didn't come much in the past two years, and I missed it very much, and then they had to come more, Jiuli and Shixiang They also had to come, I liked it very much when I saw it for the first time, those two little girls are so likable, and your sister-in-law and the rest of their families are welcome."
"By the way, the full moon wine born to the first two children was a small one, and this time it has to be a big one." Huo Baoying looked at the little doll Qi Jiao was holding in her hand and said.
"Dongrui, don't forget to give our fifth lady a nice name, I'll pick an auspicious day for the zodiac, celebrate my birthday, and invite the eldest daughter-in-law's family to come." Huo Baoying suddenly thought of a wonderful way to get closer to his in-laws, and it was justified.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, you are still weak, you may not be able to bother more at present, this matter is handled by the mother, you will follow the study, in the future, we will also hand over the inner house of the house to you, now slowly follow me to learn, and you can be on your own in the future."
"You are also a smart person, you have learned a lot of things in the past few years, and the feed is also simple, our Qi house is not a big family, and there is no content, my mother will teach you a few years, it will definitely be okay." Huo Baoying smiled brightly, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes came out.
The shock in Qi Dongrui's eyes was undisguised, but it was more of a surprise, "Mother, have you thought about it?" ”
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, it's good that your husband and wife have a good relationship, and I will have to worry less in the future, and the family will be handed over to you in a few years, and I will be able to live with peace of mind." Huo Baoying said with a smile, "But while I still have energy in the past few years, I will help you again." ”
"Those messy girls, my mother shouldn't introduce them to her son again, right?" Qi Dongrui raised his eyebrows and asked.
"What nonsense, I was worried about your heirs before, but Dr. Huang said that as long as the eldest daughter-in-law is raised, it will not be a problem to have a few more."
"If you are destined to have no son, anyway, your second brother will have it, whether it will be passed by then, or whether you will leave it to your nephew after a hundred years, it is all the Qi family, and there is no need to distinguish it so clearly, it is all out of my belly, all the same." Huo Bao English is very serious.
Qi Dongrui was curious in his heart, what happened to make his mother have a qualitative change.
Qi Jiao's tears were like broken threads, and she couldn't say anything when she grabbed Huo Baoying's hand, but the people in the room could see the strong gratitude in her eyes.
"Oh, you're still in confinement, crying is not good for your body, okay, okay." Huo Baoying comforted softly.
After Huo Baoying led Hongling away, Qi Jiao slowly calmed down, "Xianggong, what do you say my mother is?" ”
"My mother's nature is not bad, she is also for Qi House, and since her father went, it is even more so." Qi Dongrui hugged Qi Jiao and said, "Mother is a knife mouth, although she has been harsh on you all these years, she has never used any means, and she has not tossed people behind her back, she is only a little more powerful." ”
Qi Jiao nodded, her mother-in-law's temperament has gotten along over the years, and she also knows that the main reason is that she doesn't look down on her background, although she has not given birth to a son over the years, but her mother-in-law does not have a strong Cypriot, so she has to look at her father-in-law's face, but it is mainly her nature.
My father-in-law also has no concubines and intercourse, and my mother-in-law enjoys it herself, so she is somewhat tolerant and considerate of her daughter-in-law.
"This time, the eldest brother and they had an encounter, and they had some contacts with the Guo Mansion of the same acquaintance, and my mother mainly valued this." Qi Dongrui explained, "But you don't need to remember this, what kind of family Guo Mansion is, she knows it in her heart, and she has more or less thoughts about being able to take sides." ”
Qi Jiao thought of the grandmother who came that day, and called Jiuli and Shixiang Miss, no wonder, she didn't expect that she would be blessed by her niece.
