Chapter 169: The Pendant

"How can my uncle and grandfather talk about me? You're kidding me, aren't you? Xue Ling asked with a smile.

Old lady Qiu did not answer, but recalled the past, and said, "When your grandfather was young, he often came to our house to play, Chengxiao was still a child at that time, and he always followed us. ”

Xue Ling listened quietly, there are many brothers and sisters, and the feelings of one mother and siblings are always much deeper than the feelings of half-brothers, which is human nature.

Relatives are distant and close, and it has always been so.

Old lady Qiu took a sip of water, moistened his throat, and then continued, "Now I think of that time, it is really nostalgic, I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, it has been more than half of my life, Chengxiao that day, drinking with me, after three rounds of wine, he suddenly mentioned the past, talking about the beginning, when your grandfather passed away, he was sad in his heart, when your father took over the head of the family, he was eighteen or nineteen years old, and he was not as good as the crown. ”

Xue Ling listened to the past and just stood quietly.

Speaking of this, Old Lady Qiu's tone also sighed, "After your father took over the position of the witch master, he thought he could put his mind at ease, but he didn't expect your father to leave too." ”

I can't say much about the circumstances of life.

The Xue family is changing too quickly, and when the younger generation takes over the burden, it is always difficult.

"It's not just Chengxiao, your grandmother also said the same thing, and now when it's your turn, you're even younger. Counting it, there is no one younger than you in this Gangneung family. ”

The Qiu family and the Xue family are not only in-laws, but also intersecting families.

Old lady Qiu watched the Xue family update again and again, and was also embarrassed, originally looking at Xue Ling calmly, he felt a little relieved, but Xue Ling said that this is not the blessing of the Xue family, but it aroused the old lady Qiu's emotions.

Xue Ling also sighed, "Life is so capricious,"

Some people envy her, some people envy her, some people laugh at her, and of course, there are people who sympathize with her.

No matter what, in this life, no one can shake her again.

And what others think, for her, no longer cares.

Old lady Qiu also knew something about what had happened in the Xue family in the past few months, and was worried that she would be resentful at a young age, so she persuaded her, "Ah Ling, I always seem nosy to say this, but the current situation is different from previous years, and the Xue family has no choice but to push you up,"

Xue Ling's voice was low, "Uncle and grandfather don't need to say much, I know all this, no matter what the reason, no matter how heavy this burden is, I will be generous next." As the daughter of the Xue family, these are not only the responsibilities of the Xue family, but also my responsibilities. ”

It's just that when she is pushed up, she can take advantage of the situation.

However, when I wanted to pull her down, I couldn't help it.

Old lady Qiu wanted to speak and stopped, thought for a moment, and then got up.

There were a lot of books in the study, and Old Lady Qiu took out one at random, and there was a letter in it, he picked it up and looked at it, and then handed it to Xue Ling.

"Look, this is the letter of the report."

Xue Ling opened it and saw that the letter was made of ordinary letterhead, and the handwriting was in regular script, with traces of deliberate imitation.

Xue Ling just glanced at it and put it in the envelope.

This kind of anonymous report usually does not leave any clues.

Xue Ling didn't expect to find out the person who reported it from such a letter.

Old lady Qiu looked at her and didn't move.

"Ah Ling should have guessed a thing or two." Old lady Qiu said.

"Uncle and grandfather also know who did it." Xue Ling also used an affirmative tone,

Old lady Qiu did not deny it, "I'm just guessing." ”

Xue Ling put the letter in his sleeve, "I, like my uncle and grandfather, is just guessing. ”

Old Lady Qiu looked at Xue Ling as if she was in her chest, so she no longer bothered about this matter.

"Ah Ling, I have observed for a few days and found that your temperament is different from that of Jiyuan. It's not the same thing, since you've already guessed it, I won't say more, if you need it in the future, as long as I still have a breath, I will help you. ”

Xue Ling knew that at least at this moment, Old Lady Qiu was sincere, and she would talk about it later.

She sincerely thanked her, "Thank you uncle and grandfather." ”

Old lady Qiu said, "I have a gift for you. ”

Old lady Qiu pushed a wooden box on the table in front of Xue Ling.

Xue Ling shook her head and refused, "Thank you uncle and grandfather, I don't need it." ”

"Open it and see, you'll need it."

Old Lady Qiu once again pushed in front of Xue Ling.

Xue Ling hesitated a little, opened it, and a faint fragrance came to his nose, only to see that it was a small pendant style inside.

"What is this?"

Old Mrs. Qiu said, "This thing is called herb incense. ”

Xue Ling had heard of the name of herbs.

I only know that it is extremely precious, even if my grandmother is out of the cabinet, she has never owned it.

"Thank you uncle and grandfather for your kindness, I don't like to bring incense."

Old lady Qiu explained, "This is not an ordinary incense, it is made of nearly 100 kinds of medicines, and there is no smell in Su Ri, but if you encounter other spices of the Qiu family, you will distinguish and resist, so this incense is dedicated to balancing all the incense of the Qiu family." ”

Xue Ling hurriedly retreated, "This is too valuable, and besides, I don't need such a thing." ”

This gift was too heavy, and even Xue Ling was slightly surprised.

The Qiu family is famous for making incense in the land of Gangneung.

If one day, someone in the Qiu family will fight against Xue Ling, and with this herb incense, the Qiu family will not be able to use incense.

"You are the head of the Xue family, I should have given you a gift, think about it, only this is the most suitable."

Old lady Qiu pushed it in front of Xue Ling again, "Girl, take it, this is what the Qiu family owes you, and today is just an explanation for you." ”

Only then did Xue Ling know that Old Lady Qiu gave her an explanation because of Qiu's participation in the arson.

"It's all gone, and I don't pay attention to it." ”

She was honest in her heart, "I don't need anything like this. ”

Old lady Qiu said, "Ah Ling, this matter is indeed my negligence, you take it well, my Qiu family and the Xue family have been friends for generations, I and your grandfather are like brothers and sisters, your father is my nephew, and I also watched grow up, this time, the Qiu family participated in the selection of the head of the Xue family, and it was indeed the Qiu family who was the first to lose." This incense pearl jade pendant has a total of five years of efficacy, these five years are enough for you to grow, during the five years, if someone in my Qiu family calculates you, with this pendant, you can dispose of it yourself. ”
