Chapter Twenty-Seven: Life is Full of Calculations

Qin Zijin stayed in the courtyard of his cheap cousin Yang Yan, listening to his cheap cousin talk about his ridiculous deeds these days, but it was better than staying in the yard of the fifth aunt and grandmother and being nagged.

It wasn't until the next person came to invite the two of them to go to the front hall for dinner that Qin Zijin went over to meet the fifth aunt and grandmother.

Qin Wuniang frowned when she saw Qin Zijin and reprimanded a few more words, "I know that you have a good relationship with Yan'er, but you have no blood relationship, you are married again, there are many people in the house, it is inevitable that there will be tongues, if this is not good, it will not be good for you and Yan'er's reputation." ”

Qin Zijin paused and nodded in response, "Zijin will pay attention in the future." ”

She always ignores that this is a feudal patriarchal society, and what the fifth aunt and grandmother said is not unreasonable.

When they passed, Mrs. Yang, Meng Shi and Yang Yan were already sitting at the table, and when they saw Qin Wuniang, they got up and saluted.

After each of them finished saluting, Yang Yan waved to Qin Zijin enthusiastically, "Zijin, come and sit on my side." ”

Qin Zijin glanced at Meng Shi, who had an indifferent expression, found a lower position, and said, "Thank you, cousin, I can just sit here." ”

However, Yang Yan didn't give Qin Zijin a chance, and directly pulled Qin Zijin to sit beside him.

Qin Zijin secretly glanced at the Meng family, still with an indifferent expression, and then ignored the two juniors and Qin Wuniang's greetings.

The four of them sat down at the table, but they didn't start the meal in time, Qin Zijin probably guessed that he should be waiting for Yang Zhongshu, the head of the Yang family, the stepson of the fifth aunt and grandmother.

Sure enough, Yang Zhongshu came over after a while, and after a salute, the head of the Yang family sat down under Qin Wuniang.

Immediately, he frowned, and looked at Meng Shi dissatisfied, "Since it's a family banquet, why don't you see Hui'er?" ”

A trace of impatience flashed in Meng's eyes, and he answered, "I sent someone to invite him, and he said that he wanted to accompany his aunt to dinner, so he didn't come." ”

Yang Zhongshu replied with heavy eyebrows, "Then let Aunt Xue come over." ”

Meng Shi was obviously unwilling, but he could only grit his teeth and order the subordinates on the side, "Please." ”

The head of the Yang family is a person who is not smiling, and with him joining on the table, the atmosphere is obviously much duller, and even Yang Yan on the side has a lot less to say.

Yang Zhongshu said to Qin Wuniang without saying a word, and he also asked about Qin Zijin's situation.

Waiting until there was a noise at the door, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old young man in brocade came in with a woman who was weak and willow and helped the wind.

The two greeted each other, and the unsmiling head of the Yang family rarely showed a gentle side, and greeted the young man with a cold greeting.

However, from the moment he entered the door, the head of the Yang family didn't even look at the son next to Qin Zijin.

At the dinner table, there were only questions and answers between the head of the Yang family and the concubine Yang Hui's father and son, and Aunt Xue, who was smiling gently, interjected from time to time.

Meng's face became more and more heavy, and finally he couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Master, Yan'er's family affairs have been settled, and Mrs. Hu has signs of relenting, but there is a condition, her youngest daughter's family affairs have to be taken care of together." ”

After speaking, Meng Shi glanced at Yang Hui meaningfully.

Yang Yan heard that it was about his own family affairs, and was about to speak, but he was pulled by Qin Zijin on the side.

Yang Yan didn't know why he looked at Qin Zijin, and saw Qin Zijin gently shaking his head at him, and Yang Yan closed his mouth unwillingly.

As soon as Meng's words fell, Aunt Xue and Yang Hui, who were still smiling, changed their faces, and Yang Zhongshu also frowned, and said, "The youngest daughter of the Hu family can't hear or speak, how can she be worthy of Hui'er." ”

Yang Hui responded anxiously, "Dad, I'm still young, so I'm not in a hurry about family affairs." ”

Meng Shi glanced at Yang Hui, chuckled lightly and said, "Is Hui'er in a hurry or dissatisfied with this family business?" ”

Then he turned his head and persuaded, "Master, Hui'er is a concubine, although the youngest daughter of the Hu family has some minor problems, but in the end, she is the daughter of the Hu family, and Hui'er is not a grievance. ”

Yang Zhongshu seemed to lower his head and think about it, then sighed and said, "The Hu family's family affairs must be decided, you should come down first." ”

Meng Shi opened his mouth with a happy face, but the faces of Aunt Xue and Yang Hui became more and more pale, and they couldn't hide their hatred when they looked at Yang Yan.

This meal can be regarded as a deceit and intrigue, but it is none of Qin Zijin's business, she just watched a drama of a wealthy house fight.

Qin Wuniang didn't participate too much, she wasn't her biological child anyway, she couldn't manage it and was not qualified to manage it, she just took care of her old lady of the Yang family.

The head of the Yang family left after eating, and as soon as he walked on his front foot, Aunt Xue and Yang Hui also got up to say goodbye, and the Meng family would not stay.

As soon as the people left, Yang Yan looked at Meng Shi dissatisfied, "Mother, I don't want to get married." ”

Meng Shi sank his face and reprimanded, "Why did I raise such a useless thing as you, look at your father, I don't want to look at you more, I only have that Yang Hui in my eyes, you don't know how to make progress all day long......"

Meng Shi counted Yang Yan and didn't give Yang Yan a chance to interject at all, and in the end, Yang Yan couldn't stand it and got up and ran away.

Looking at the back of Yang Yan leaving, Meng Shi sighed and said, "Mother, why did you say that Yan'er became like this?" ”

Since she was called, Qin Wuniang had no choice but to speak, "Yan'er's nature is not bad, don't be in a hurry, guide slowly." ”

After speaking, he also got up and left with Qin Zijin's farewell.

In another courtyard of the Yang family, Yang Hui smashed all the things that could be smashed in the house, and after nothing was smashed, he said with a grim face, "If you want to be engaged to the eldest lady of the Hu family, I want to see if he can have that blessing." ”

Aunt Xue looked at her son worriedly, "What do you want to do?" ”

Yang Hui sneered and responded, "Don't worry, my son has his own success in his heart." ”

These messy things of the Yang family are none of Qin Zijin's business, she will return to the village tomorrow, and naturally she will not take these things to heart.

After returning to the courtyard of the fifth aunt and grandmother, she talked with the fifth aunt and grandmother for a while, and then she went to the side courtyard where she used to live to wash and rest.

However, the sudden noise outside in the middle of the night made Qin Zijin wake up instantly.

Sitting up silently, listening to the slight footsteps outside the door slowly approaching, Qin Zijin quickly got out of bed and touched the back of the door barefoot, listening carefully to the movement outside the door.

When his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he saw a puff of white smoke drifting through the crack in the door.

Qin Zijin hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, breathing as little as possible, and at the same time sighed in his heart, how come this life is full of calculations, there is no moment to stop.

There was no movement outside the door for a while, and after a while, a voice came from the door, and the people outside said in a breathy voice, "It's almost, you can touch in and take a look first." ”

Another person whispered, "Look at what, a little girl can still find a film, if she is not stunned, she will be stunned with a knife, just throw the person in it quickly." ”

With that, he pushed the door open.

Qin Zijin stood at the door, watching several black shadows swaggering into the door, so he quickly rushed out from behind the door, shouting loudly while rushing out of the door, "Help, there are assassins, help......"
