Chapter 170: The Pendant 2
The four major families pay attention to the inheritance system, and most of them are dying inheritance.
Old Mrs. Qiu is the oldest head of the four major families, and in the past few years, she has also begun to let go and let her eldest son deal with all the affairs of the Xue family.
This is also the reason why Mrs. Qiu has made some omissions.
When the sister-in-law's sister questioned face-to-face, Mrs. Qiu was surprised in her heart, but more self-blame and guilt.
The relationship with the Xue family is not only in-law, but also carries more memories of childhood.
After thinking about it, it can be regarded as a compensation for Xue Ling, an explanation for her sister, and a promise from the Qiu family.
Xue Ling looked at that thing, knowing that this matter really had nothing to do with Old Lady Qiu, because of her grandmother, and Old Lady Qiu personally expressed her position, Xue Ling naturally had no reason to refuse.
What's more, that's what she wants.
What happened, there is no point in pursuing right and wrong, and now she only hopes to win the greatest benefit for herself based on what happened.
She took it and looked at it in the palm of her hand, "Thank you, uncle, grandfather." I accepted it. ”
She raised her head, and there seemed to be starlight fluctuations in her eyes, "There is a wrong, there is a debtor, I will not count the grievances and grievances on the head of the Qiu family, but the same thing will never happen a second time, and I will never allow it." ”
Old lady Qiu sighed softly, from intimacy to alienation, this is the eternal truth, as the years go by, the younger generation takes over the family, and the relationship between the two families can no longer maintain the intimacy it once had.
And Xue Ling, in just two days, Old Lady Qiu also discovered that there is an inviolable stubbornness in Xue Ling's temperament.
This little girl has courage, strength, and brains, neither going with the crowd nor retreating easily, and she is indeed a rare talent.
"Actually, as long as you carry this thing with you, the people of the Qiu family will naturally understand what I mean, even if it is."
His voice stopped, "Even if I'm gone, the majesty of this pendant will always be the same." ”
The pendant in his hand looks very ordinary. Xue Ling put it in her hand and stroked it gently, "Okay." ”
Old lady Qiu said, "Ah Ling, there is one more thing. ”
Xue Ling raised her head with some doubts, "Uncle and grandfather, please speak directly." ”
"There was a great drought in the north, and the court issued an order for the south to choose a witch doctor to go to the north to pray for rain. I also received the document today, thinking that the king of Gangneung didn't want to conflict with our witch doctor teacher, so he decided to meet tomorrow at the Gangneung Palace. Now, since you are the head of the Xue family, when the time comes, you will also have to participate. ”
Zeng Yi and Jiang Mingxu mentioned it successively, and Xue Ling was naturally not surprised.
Old lady Qiu said, "This witchcraft praying for rain consumes energy and energy, and now it is separated by disputes between the north and the south. Going to the north is a very cost-effective thing, you are young, you are a girl, and the Xue family has just gone through this matter, it is better to put it off, and you won't say anything if you want to come to the court. ”
Xue Ling vaguely remembered that there was this incident in the previous life.
At that time, she had just been promoted to the position of the head of the family, and the Xue family directly rejected such a thing, and she didn't have a house in mind.
And now.
She remembered what she had told her about the island in Qingshui Lake.
A gentleman promises, although she is not a gentleman, but she has to repay her sister's favor no matter what.
Not to mention.
Even if it wasn't for Zeng Yi's request, she would have to make this trip.
The only thing that caught her off guard was that the time was a little tight, this time, at least half a month, the Xue family still had some things to deal with.
Xue Ling remembered that the first time the emperor's eldest grandson officially proposed anti-witch was during the great drought in the north.
Xue Ling exhaled softly, the last person in the previous life to go to the north was only the Jiang family, and the uncle couldn't go because of the free clinic, but he sent his cousin to go.
Later, the emperor's eldest grandson began to suppress the Wu clan in various places on the grounds that the Wu clan in the south had no compassion and the Wu clan in the north was incompetent.
Waves of controversy have been set off between the DPRK and China.
Except for the Jiang family, who survived, all the families were more or less hit hard.
All the things that happened in the previous life, some of them can be changed, and she naturally can't ignore them like in the previous life.
This trip, no matter what awaits her in front of her, she must go.
Walking out of the study, the pendant around her waist fell into everyone's sight.
All the eyes of the Xue family fell on Xue Ling.
Surprised, puzzled, and finally compromised.
When he came out of Qiu's house, it was already the beginning of the lanterns.
She was still thinking about things in the back of her mind.
Old Madam Xue got closer, and when she saw the pendant hanging from Xue Ling's waist, she was also a little surprised, but she still asked, "Ah Ling, what did your uncle and grandfather say to you?" ”
Xue Ling retracted her thoughts and said with a smile, "I said some things from before, and then gave me this." ”
She took off the pendant and handed it to Mrs. Xue.
Old Mrs. Xue took it in her hand, "This is the Qiu family's herb incense pendant, which only previous heads of the family have." ”
Xue Ling only knew that it was precious, but she didn't know that it was so precious, and said, "It seems that I am stained with my grandmother's light." ”
Old Madam Xue smiled, "Silly girl, grandmother doesn't have such a big face," she handed back the things in her hand to Xue Ling, "Take it well, this is the promise that the Qiu family gave you, and the Qiu family owes you,"
She sighed, "This pendant has the effect of five years, and five years is enough for my Ah Ling to grow into the head of the Xue family." Since it's given to you, you can take it well. ”
Xue Ling smiled, "If I take it, one day I will fight against the Qiu family, won't I take advantage?" Doesn't grandmother feel sorry for the Qiu family? ”
Old Mrs. Xue sighed again and said, "The water spilled by the married daughter, I just feel sorry for my Ah Ling now." Take it with you, no one will dare to bully you with such means in the future. This is the attitude that the Qiu family should give. ”
Old Mrs. Xue carefully hung Xue Ling on her waist.
Xue Ling asked, "The four major families, each of them has a treasure, our Xue family's is Xuanjiqin, and the Qiu family is this herb incense." ”
Old Mrs. Xue smiled, "I don't know what the treasure of the Xue family is, but the treasure in my heart is only my pair of granddaughters." ”
Xue Ling was moved in her heart, "Thank you, grandmother." ”
Xue Yan also thanked him.
After returning to the other courtyard, Xue Ling prepared to go back to the inner courtyard.
"Third sister," Xue Yuan called Xue Ling.
"Thank you for today."
He bowed.
Sincerely, "I mean what I say, and I will listen to the third sister in the future." ”
Xue Ling turned around, "Big brother is outside, go back and rest early." ”
Xue Yuan's expression was much more relaxed, "If I go back like this because of cheating, my father will definitely blame me, third sister, thank you very much." ”
