When Mrs. Xue said this, Qiu seemed to understand something, and she was stunned for a while, not knowing how to answer.

Old Mrs. Xue swept around and said, "I still have a set of courtyards in Rongcheng, and I haven't rented it out all these years,"

She said to Qiu first, "On weekdays, because you take Ah Lian back to Qiu's house, you often go to the other courtyard to live, so this courtyard has been cleaned, and it has been renovated again this year, I just want to go and see, so I take Ah Ling and Yan'er to live in the other courtyard."

Qiu Shi was slightly surprised in his heart,

The repair of this annex was prepared by her, whether it is the furnishings or the ornaments, they are all genuine, and I feel a little sorry in my heart.

I didn't dare to persuade, but I just smiled and asked, "Is the old lady going too?" ”

Qiu has always been exquisite, even if he suffered a few losses in Xue Ling's hands, he still greeted Xue Ling with a cold face, but at this moment, he could clearly feel that this smile had become a little reluctant.

Old Mrs. Xue snorted, and said unintentionally, "This witch doctor exam is unusual, the three children of our Xue family's younger generation are going to go, and the whole Jiangling is watching, if these three children can't pass any of them, wouldn't it be a joke, I will personally take a few juniors to go." ”

The smile on Qiu's lips stiffened a little, "The three children are extremely hardworking, Ah Ling doesn't need to say it, our Ah Hao has also worked very hard these days, it is Ah Yuan, I have seen three watches in the middle of the night these days, how can I not pass any of them, and the witch doctor exam is very boring, the old lady is at this age, and the boat and car are tiring, I am afraid that it will not be able to bear it, and the old lady should stay at home." ”

Mrs. Xue was very firm, "Staying at home every day, it's boring, I don't have to say it anymore." ”

She glanced around and continued, "Since you are all here, I have one thing to say, the annex in Rongcheng was built for me by my parents when I came out of the pavilion, just hoping that I would have a place to live in Rongcheng when I returned to Rongcheng. ”

Xue Ling naturally knew that this courtyard was of great significance to her grandmother, and she had been to it in her previous life.

The most important thing is that Qiu has been thinking about this annex for a long time.

The Qiu family is also the daughter of the Qiu family, but it belongs to the side branch, and the dowry when she leaves the cabinet is naturally not comparable to the old lady from the lineage.

Although Qiu didn't say it, he still remembered this courtyard more or less.

Xue Lian didn't feel good in her heart, since she could remember, she followed her mother back to Rongcheng to live, and she lived in this courtyard eight or nine times out of ten.

Although she deliberately hid it, she still revealed a little sourness, and said, "Grandmother is eccentric, even if our daughters can't be compared with the third sister, there are two older brothers." If the two elder brothers also pass the exam, how does the grandmother plan to reward them? ”

Old Mrs. Xue glanced at Xue Lian, Xue Lian's idea was careful, and she knew it clearly.

If it was said that in the past, she did have such a mind and wanted to leave the other courtyard to the Qiu family.

Not now.

Everything she has, except for Xue Ling, never wants to share anything with others.

Old Lady Xue asked Xue Yuan Xue Hao and said bluntly, "You two also want this courtyard?" ”

This sentence is asked, who dares to say that it wants.

Xue Yuan hurriedly said, "Since Grandmother gave it to the third sister, it is the third sister's." ”

Xue Yuan wasn't a little sure, so he didn't want to fight for it.

Xue Hao was a little sure, so he felt that he had lost a lot, but Xue Yuan had already spoken, and Xue Hao had to follow, "That's exactly what he said." ”

Old Mrs. Xue bowed her head and said, "Yes, the boy of my Xue family must have great ambitions, he will earn back what he wants, and grab things with his sister at home. ”

After saying this sentence, even Qiu Shi couldn't say a word.

Old Madam Xue said to Mama Qiu, "Bring me the four treasures of the study I prepared." ”

Mama Qiu came out with two sets of four treasures from the study room and put them on the table.

"These are my two specially customized sets of study four treasures, Ah Yuan, Ah Hao, if you pass the exam, you will be rewarded with this."

A room full of people was dumbfounded.

Although the four treasures of the study are also very precious, compared with the courtyard of Sijin at that time, even a fraction of them were not enough.

Even Xue Ling felt that her grandmother was not a little biased, but she didn't want to refuse.

That is what my grandmother wanted, and she happily accepted it.

"Thank you, grandmother, I won't disappoint her."

After Xue Ling thanked her, Old Lady Xue was even more happy.

Xue Jiman and his wife didn't feel good in their hearts, but they wouldn't say much, and Xue Jihong couldn't help it, "Mother, what does she want so much real estate for a little girl, and she goes to Rongcheng less, and if she gives it to her, it's just for nothing." ”

Old Mrs. Xue was rejoicing, and when she heard the words, her face turned into a crotch, "Do you think I'm biased?" ”

No one said a word.

Old Mrs. Xue looked around, took in all her expressions, and then continued, "Ah Yuan and Ah Hao are both men of my Xue family's generation, and now that the Xue family is in great trouble, it is up to the two of them to bear the heavy responsibility, in fact, when they arrived at this field, Ah Ling was in front, and now they know that she is a little girl, when they recommended her to be the head of the family, why didn't they remember that she was just a little girl." ”

Mrs. Xue said excitedly, and her voice became stern, "You all ask yourself, do you feel a little ashamed of yourself when you go out, but if there is something that can be afforded, it is not the turn of Ah Ling and a little girl to come out of this head, if you are jealous of everything she has gained today, just stand up now, who dares to pat your chest and put this burden next, this courtyard, I will give it to whom." ”

But Mrs. Xue finished speaking.

Everyone in the room was silent.

It was Qiu Shi who said first, "What my mother-in-law said is reasonable, and it should be so." ”

Only then did Mrs. Xue say, "In that case, go and prepare, and set off early." ”

Jiang Yue had already arranged everything, and just handed a box of medicine to Xue Ling, "Remember to urge Yan'er to take medicine, if there is anything wrong, let someone come back in time to send a message, you can also find your uncle." ”

Xue Ling nodded and said, "Okay, A-Niang, don't worry. ”

Old Mrs. Xue took Xue Ling and Xue Yan into the carriage, "When we go to Qiu's house, we will go to your uncle and grandmother first, and have a meal at Qiu's house, and then we will go to the other courtyard." ”

In total, it adds up to about an hour.

The Qiu family is good at incense, and when they entered the city, they saw that spices were sold on both sides of the street.

Along the way, the smell of spices lingered around Xue Ling.

I just feel the aroma.
