Chapter Forty-Eight: Visiting the Eldest Sister

After a busy morning, they bought everything they should have bought, and they were ready to leave for home.

I didn't want to, but I saw Yang Yan at the door, this time it was not alone, there was a follower behind him, and he was holding a package in his hand.

Qin Zijin was surprised, "Are you planning to go out?" ”

Yang Yan nodded, "I'm going to go to your house to have a look." ”

Qin Zijin's eyes widened, "Go to my house?" ”

Yang Yan responded, "Yes, I've been calling my cousin for so long, and I've never been to your house." ”

Qin Zijin looked at Yang Yan with a complicated expression, "Are you sure you want to go?" ”

Yang Yan nodded in response, "Of course, didn't you see that my things were all packed?" By the way, go to the countryside to relax, so as not to disturb people's eyes at home. ”

Qin Zijin couldn't bear to refuse, and nodded in response, "Okay, I just hope you won't regret it." ”

Because Qin Zijin bought too many things, plus two more people, an ox cart would definitely not be able to go back.

Thinking that they would go to Yantang Town to visit the eldest sister, for fear of delaying Yu Liniang and his wife, Qin Zijin simply went to the city gate and rented two ox carts, one to sit and the other to load things.

Now there is no shortage of these silvers, Yu Liniang knew that they still had something, so she didn't say much, they went on the road together, and parted ways after arriving in Yantang Town.

Yang Yan sat in the carriage with a disgusted face, "I knew that I would have to take this broken car to go to your house, so I let my grandfather's carriage send us." ”

Qin Zijin was surprised, "Your grandfather's family has a carriage?" ”

Yang Yan raised his head and said proudly, "Of course, my uncles are all in official positions." ”

In this era, it is said that the family has no official status and cannot use a carriage, Qin Zijin was very annoyed after hearing about it, and she still thought that she would buy a carriage when she had money.

Yang Yan's grandfather's family is not ordinary, Qin Zijin knows some of it, but she didn't expect that Yang Yan has several uncles who are actually officials.

"Since your uncle is an official, why is your father still rushing to the Hu family? Wouldn't it be nice to please your grandfather's family? Qin Zijin asked curiously.

Yang Yan sighed, "My uncle is an official in Kyoto, and he is very busy, but he can't take care of my father's business, my second uncle is out, it is far away, and they have a bad relationship with my father." ”

Qin Zijin pursed his mouth, "Okay, the relationship between you wealthy families is always so complicated. ”

After all, Yantang Town is next to the county seat, in the end it is more lively than the remote Hongping Town, even if it is not a market day, there are still some pedestrians coming and going on the street, and the shops on both sides are also much more complicated.

Their group of two ox carts still attracted a lot of attention.

Guided by Qin Liu's direction, their ox cart stopped at the door of the house in an alley.

After getting out of the ox cart, Yang Yan still looked disgusted, "This gate is too small, and the carriage can't get in." ”

Qin Zijin was speechless when he heard this, thinking that after Yang Yan went to her house, his expression must be very exciting, and when the time comes, he may directly follow the ox cart and go back to the county seat.

Qin Chen knocked on the door for a while before an impatient question came from inside, "Who?" ”

Qin Chen was about to answer, when the wooden door was opened with a clang.

The one who opened the door was a plump woman in her forties, who was stunned when she saw Qin Chen's expression, and then showed a smile that didn't smile, and greeted, "Yo, it turned out that my mother is here?" So many people, what is it? ”

Qin Chen replied with a smile, "If you have something to do with the county seat, come and have a look by the way." ”

Normally, the woman would have warmly beckoned them to the door, but the woman stood motionless at the door.

Qin Chen had to speak again, "Is Baozhen at home?" ”

The woman still replied with that twitching smile, "It turned out to be to see Baozhen, she and Zhang Lin temporarily moved to live in their hometown." ”

Qin Chen frowned, "Aren't all the houses in my hometown collapsed?" ”

The woman replied, "Where can it be, it has been repaired a long time ago, there are too many children in the house, and Baozhen likes to be quiet, so I moved over, and I won't invite you into the house, you can go directly to the old house." ”

After speaking, they closed the door directly, and they actually ate a closed door.

Qin Baoli looked at the closed door in disbelief, and couldn't help but scold, "This old woman is too much." ”

Qin Chen also frowned, grabbed Qin Baoli, who was impulsively about to step forward and kick the door, and said, "What's the trouble, let's go, go to the old mansion and have a look." ”

The group had to drive the ox cart out of the alley, and Qin Chen guided the way and left Yantang Town.

The old house of the Zhang family is not far from Yantang Town, and they drove the ox cart to a dilapidated village, Yang Yan couldn't help but complain when he looked at it, "This is too broken." ”

Qin Chen responded, "Most of them have moved to the town, and this place is deserted. ”

The ox cart finally stopped at the door of a collapsed dilapidated house, Qin Chen looked at the broken yard with a confused expression, Qin Zijin was speechless and asked, "This is the old mansion of the Zhang family." ”

Qin Chen nodded and replied blankly, "Didn't you say that it was repaired?" ”

Thinking of the woman with a mean face and seeing them smiling, Qin Zijin stepped directly into the dilapidated house and walked towards the only house that had not collapsed.

Looking at the situation outside, sure enough, there were traces of someone's life, and as soon as she approached the door, a weak female voice came from inside, "Brother Lin, are you back?" ”

Qin Chen, who was following behind Qin Zijin, could hear the sound inside, and his eyes turned red in an instant, and after Qin Baoli heard the sound inside, she couldn't help but rush directly into the house.

"Eldest sister, how did you become like this?"

As soon as Qin Zijin walked to the door, Qin Baoli's exclamation came from inside.

Qin Chen also rushed into the house excitedly past Qin Zijin, and saw Qin Baozhen lying on the bed with deep sunken cheeks and a pale face, and couldn't help but cover his mouth and cry before he even walked in.

Qin Baozhen on the bed tried to show a pale smile, "Why are you here?" ”

Qin Chen finally controlled his emotions, wiped the tears on his face, sat on the edge of Qin Baozhen's bed, took her hand and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, what's going on?" How did you become, how did you become this, how did you still live here? ”

Qin Baozhen couldn't help it, she burst into tears before she could open her mouth, and called out to her mother aggrievedly, but she didn't say a word.

Qin Baoli couldn't help but scold with red eyes, "Is it that dead old woman?" I should have pounced on her and scratched her face. ”

Qin Baozhen's mood stabilized a little, and then she intermittently said what happened to her.

Qin Zijin couldn't help frowning when he heard this, what is going on.

Originally, Qin Baozhen married the Zhang family, which had good conditions, Zhang Lin was still an only son, but he lost his mother at an early age, and Zhang Lin's father continued the strings, but only gave birth to two female babies.

Qin Baozhen married into the Zhang family during Zhang's father's illness, and her original intention was to be happy and see if Zhang's father's condition would improve.

I don't want Zhang's father to see that his only son finally married his daughter-in-law, and he just spread his wish to someone.
