Chapter 43

Qin Yunxiang, who came to ask for peace in the house, heard the sound and immediately greeted him, "My brother rushed back from a tiring trip last night, he must have been tired, even my father said that I could let my brother sleep a little longer, why did my brother come over so early?" In front of Qin Linfeng, Qin Yun's makeup looked so innocent and lively, like a child who needs to be pampered all the time.

Qin Linfeng really ate this set very much, even in front of Qin Yunuan, he touched Qin Yun's smooth long hair without fear, and said with a smile: "How can you be tired when you come to see you and your mother?" Qin Linfeng has cherished this sister very much since he was a child, and Qin Yunuan also knows it, but now that the two of them are older, it is inevitable that they will be a little overly spoiled when they have such a move.

Qin Linfeng glanced slightly, his eyes actually stepped directly over Qin Yunuan, and instead greeted the Xiu Gu beside Dou Qing'e: "I haven't seen you for a year, but Xiu Gu is getting younger and younger." ”

Xiu Gu was also so happy that she returned the salute, this family looked so harmonious, as if Qin Yunuan was an outsider, or rather, for them, Qin Yunuan was a person who should not appear at all.

"Yu Nuan has seen the eldest brother." Even if Qin Yunuan is unwilling, the etiquette must be complete, so as not to find the slightest mistake for others.

"Who are you calling big brother?" Qin Linfeng, who was still polite just now, said in a tone like a cool breeze in the cold winter wax moon, "I, Qin Linfeng, have only one sister from beginning to end. ”

When Qin Yunxiang heard this, he couldn't help but become proud, but he still said angrily: "Brother, my mother said that the mother of the third sister died early, and the master handed over their sister and brother to my mother to teach, so it is like my mother's biological children, and it is also like my biological sister." ”

Qin Linfeng snorted contemptuously and coldly: "Xu I have been away from home for a long time, and I don't know, it turns out that the concubine and the concubine can also be compared, it turns out that an embroidery girl from a pariax background marries into the Taiwei Mansion, and even her daughter can become a phoenix." ”

"When the eldest brother says this, he is not afraid of being listened to by someone with a heart?" Qin Yunuan's eyes swirled around Qin Linfeng, as if he was looking into the distance, blurry and profound, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to point, "Eh, isn't that Steward Xie beside my father?" ”

If you really have been heard......

Qin Linfeng turned his head nervously, only to find that there was a spring flower vine swaying in the wind behind him, and there was not even a fly, let alone a big living person. Besides, Steward Xie has always been with his father, how could he come to this Cuixuan Courtyard alone.

Qin Linfeng is at the age of young and vigorous, he is outside all the year round, he only understands the arrogance of the rivers and lakes, and does not understand the tricks of this inner house, so he turned his head angrily and broke out directly: "You dare to trick me?" A concubine who can't get on the stage really only knows these cheap methods. ”

Qin Yunuan's face was full of sincerity and grievances, and she snorted: "Yunuan really saw Steward Xie just now." ”

"How dare you say ......." Qin Linfeng is modest and elegant on the surface, but in fact he is impulsive and reckless, Qin Yunuan grasped this point, she looked at Qin Linfeng with fire in her eyes, but a sense of revenge sprouted in her heart.

Just when Qin Linfeng looked at Qin Yunuan angrily, ready to reprimand and reprimand this concubine who didn't know what to do, the hem of the clothes on the other side was tightly pulled by Qin Yun's makeup, and before he came back to his senses, he saw that Qin Zhen was already standing in front of the shadow wall, and the person who followed him was really Steward Xie.

Qin Zhi made a straight face, his hands were behind him, and he stared at Qin Linfeng who was embarrassed and overwhelmed for a long time, three years ago, he just saw that the eldest son of this grandson was too impatient to send him out to study, and now it seems that three years of tempering have not changed him in the slightest, disappointed, hatred of iron does not become steel, thousands of emotions surged into his heart together, the air seemed to condense into ice, Qin Zhi took a deep breath, didn't say anything, and turned straight away.

Steward Xie also replied with an expressionless face: "The eldest young master, the eldest girl, the third girl, the master specially ordered someone to prepare a meal in the Water Pavilion, and specially sent the little one to invite you over." ”

It is rare for Qin Zhen to come to Cuixuan Courtyard in person to invite Dou Qing'e's mother and son to come over to eat, Qin Linfeng looked at Qin Yunuan angrily, if it weren't for this girl who stirred up the situation......

Dou Qing'e also came out of the house when she heard the sound, she looked at Qin Yunxuan, Qin Linfeng and Qin Yunuan who had been standing outside, just by looking at Qin Linfeng's dissatisfied face, she probably knew what was going on.

"What are you doing standing here, didn't you hear the old man just shouting for us to have breakfast? We are a family, and we haven't eaten together for a long time. ”

A good move to fight cattle across the mountain, the bloodshot in Qin Linfeng's eyes seemed to be slowly expanding, and he even ignored the urging of Dou Qing'e and Qin Yunxiang, just stared straight at Qin Yunuan, after he hurried back to the house last night, the first one was Qin Zhen who went to see him, and regardless of whether it was true or false, he made a big show of his harvest and experience from this year's study tour, which made Qin Zhen praise him, but now, he let his father see such a scene, it seems that what his mother's letter said is really right, all along, they have been underestimating this concubine too much.

In addition, when he knew that his baby sister Qin Yunxiang's face injury was also related to this concubine, he couldn't wait to pluck Qin Yunuan's bones, Yun Makeup was a person who attached great importance to appearance, and he Qin Linfeng knew best.

"What did I say just now," Qin Yunuan said with a smile, "I'll just say that I saw Steward Xie, big brother, why don't you believe it?" ”

"You are really ruthless," Qin Linfeng said mockingly, "However, even if you have more schemes, you are just a concubine, and Qin Baochuan is just a concubine, so be careful for me in the future." ”

The family rarely had a morning banquet together, and everyone arrived, but Li Mengming came very late.

"Yo, Sister Li is finally here," Aunt Liu's charming eyes were full of coquettishness, and she sneered with a veil, "Only Sister Li, with the love of the master, dares to come later than the housewife and the master of the house." ”

Li Mengming's expression was haggard, and no matter how much she wiped the fat powder, she couldn't cover the dark circles under her eyelids.

"My sister doesn't seem to have slept well," Dou Qing'e said with a faint concern, "Is there something missing in the Furong Courtyard, what is missing, just tell me." ”

Li Mingming waved her hand again and again, and her tone was as soft as a spring catkins, she only looked at Qin Zhen and said: "It's all good, it's the yard arranged by the lord and Mrs. for Mengming, so naturally everything is good." ”

Li Mengming's move was very clever, and her eyes already told Qin Zhen that she had been wronged in Furong Courtyard.

"My aunt's foot is still injured, so it's immobile." Qin Yunuan smiled and relieved Li Mingming, but the appearance that seemed to be smiling but not smiling made Li Mingming shiver inexplicably.

"Let's eat." Qin Zhen waved his hand slightly uncomfortably.

A home-cooked meal, everyone is duplicitous.

At night, Liao's mother was about to close the courtyard door, and Cui'e, the maid beside Dou Qing'e, took the two little maids into the courtyard.

"Third girl," Cui'e hastily saluted Qin Yunuan, "It turns out that the third girl didn't sleep, and Madame was worried about disturbing the peace of the third girl." ”

Qin Yunuan stroked the hanging bun, obviously deliberately disturbed, and said so high-sounding: "Sister Cui'e is serious, how can I bother, in fact, in the past few days, I have been sleeping restlessly, you know, my courtyard is relatively close to the Furong Courtyard, this big night," Qin Yunuan's face suddenly became very ugly, as if he saw a god and a demon, he leaned closer and whispered to Cui'e, "Sometimes, at night, I will hear the cry that comes out inexplicably from the Furong Courtyard, and the sound doesn't look like Aunt Li's, Ai Ai's is terrifying to hear. ”

Cui'e shivered straight, and the corners of her forehead unconsciously broke out with sweat, Cui'e and Lu Liu were the same, she entered the Taiwei Mansion as a maid at the age of twelve, and now she has been working in the Taiwei Mansion for more than ten years, and she is still unmarried in her twenties, all because Dou Qing'e has always liked to tie people to death, if they are allowed to marry a husband's family, in case the husband's family has the ability in the future, it will directly threaten her control over them.

Then Aunt He's death was only six years ago, Qin Yunuan can't really remember it, but the maid next to Dou Qing'e must know something.

"What did the third girl say," Cui'e's voice trembled slightly, "Now that it's early spring, it should be which wild cat in estrus is calling at night, so the three girls are not at peace." ”

"Oh, that's it," Qin Yunuan made a look of sudden realization, stroked his chest and said, "I thought there was something strange in this Furong Courtyard." She looked at Cui'e's expression as she spoke, until the tip of Cui'e's nose began to slowly ooze cold sweat, and then suddenly changed her words: "By the way, Sister Cui'e came to me at this time, but what does my mother have to order?" ”

Cui'e's face immediately returned to normal, even with a touch of arrogance, she motioned to the little maid behind her to hand over the things: "This is the last time the three girls borrowed two Buddhist scriptures from Wan'an Temple for Mrs., but it is a pity that Mrs. recently took over the account room, tired day and night, eyes are not good, the words on this Buddhist scripture are small, Mrs. heard that the font of the three girls is the most beautiful, I want the three girls to copy the Buddhist scriptures for Mrs., the words are written larger, which is convenient for Mrs. to read." ”

It is understandable for children to copy Buddhist scriptures for their parents, but for Dou Qing'e......

"It's rare that my mother has something to trust, and Yu Nuan must copy Buddhist scriptures devoutly." Qin Yunuan's face showed an unconcealable joy, and she didn't know how flattered she was. Qin Yunuan instructed Tong'er Man'er to accept the scriptures.

"And this," Cui'e took a brocade box from another little maid and said to Qin Yunuan, "This is Madame's favorite pine oil smoke, I'm afraid that the third girl won't have enough here, so she specially sent me to send some over." ”

Where is it not enough, a concubine like Qin Yunuan has never had pine oil smoke ink in the example.

For Dou Qing'e's "kindness", it was really warm.
