Chapter 18: Where is Ganshui Village?
Qin Xinxin had been sitting in the inverted room of the Qin Mansion for a long time.
Since Lao Li entered the door to pay a complaint, she disappeared, and she and her two maidservants were taken here to wait. Although there were no tea and snacks, Qin Xinxin still sat straight and dignified.
Since entering the Qin Mansion, she didn't seem to have returned home, but as if she had gone to the battlefield, her whole body was extremely vigilant, her back was straight, like a sharp sword out of the sheath.
However, although Lao Li has been gone for so long, she has not seen a trace of panic, not so much believing in Lao Li's loyalty, but believing in the means of the star's domination.
On the way to Qin's Mansion, Qin Xinxin had already made a good statement with the three of them.
Because of the death of Mrs. Song, there are more Mu Xi and Pomegranate, and they will not be able to hide the things they met with Dawan people. But Qin Xin didn't want to cause more trouble, she just wanted to find out what happened after she was drunk that day, where is her grandfather now, and which county and state is Ganshui Village in?
As for the father's love, from fifteen years without asking for news, to after the Dawan people proposed to want the princess and the daughter of Ye to make peace, the Qin Mansion immediately sent Song Pozi and her party to pick her up, and the clues can be seen.
Along the way, Lao Li, who had completely fallen to Qin Xinxin, also explained to Qin Xinxin the inside and outside of the Qin Mansion.
It's just that although Lao Li has been in the Qin Mansion for a long time, he often runs outside, and he doesn't know many things in the inner house very clearly.
Listening to his introduction, it turned out that Qin Lian had been the teacher of the year since he was in high school fifteen years ago, and now he married his beloved daughter Cao to the Cao family.
After that, the two were harmonious, Luan Feng and Ming, and they also had a period of affection.
However, later Qin Lian brought his widowed mother-in-law from the countryside to live in the house, and the relationship between Qin Lian and Cao's family became a gap. Because Lao Li was waiting in the outer study at that time, he knew that Qin Lian had slept there for several days and refused to go back to the backyard.
Later, I didn't know what happened, so the Cao family sought to release him for him, and the Cao family was not allowed to follow him because of the slippery tire. Who knew that when he returned to Beijing after the expiration of four years, Qin Lian brought back one big and two small, which were now the noble concubine Aunt Zhou and the second young master Qin Songwu, and the third lady Qin Songci.
"Unexpectedly, since then, my wife has changed her eldest lady's temper and become kind to our subordinates." Qin Xin's heart faintly sounded Lao Li's voice, and she still remembered what Lao Li said at the time, "When Mrs. first got married, she had a rare bit of the grandeur of the eldest lady now, oh, no, it's time to call the second lady now." He glanced at Qin Xinxin and saw that she didn't show anything on her face, so he continued: "Mrs. changed her normal behavior, not only did she not get angry, but she was extremely affectionate to Aunt Zhou, and later proposed to the master that in order to make the second young master and the third young lady marry better in the future, you might as well raise the second young master and the third young lady under her knees." ”
But it seems that Aunt Zhou strongly opposed it at that time, so the old man compromised and only agreed to raise the third lady in the wife's room. However, at that time, the old man and his wife were getting older, and there was no sister-in-law under their knees, and the second young master was the only son of the old man, and the old lady and the old man were naturally very treasured. But if this son is kept in his aunt's room, as his wife said, it will not sound good to say it in the future. ”
"So later, the second young master went to the old lady's house, grew up with the old lady, and when he was old enough to go to school, he entrusted his relationship and sent him to the famous Bailu Academy in the suburbs, and he usually didn't go home."
"Aunt Zhou has returned to the capital since she left, and her son and daughter are no longer around, so she has devoted all her attention to the old man. Mrs. saw the opportunity quickly, and immediately opened her face to the most powerful big girl beside her, who is now Aunt Fang in the house. Aunt Fang is young and beautiful, Aunt Zhou is empathetic, Mrs. is virtuous and virtuous, presiding over the feed, impartial, and since then, there has been no more turmoil in the house. ”
Qin Xinxin couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, this Lao Li is really a wonderful person, and the words "impartial" are really good. Where is there no more turmoil in this back house, it is clearly an undercurrent surging, and the mountain rain is coming.
Qin Lian abandoned her mother and daughter for fame and fortune, and her character can be seen; Who knew that the noble daughter of the Cao family was only pretended to be in her original form for three or five years, and now she has a beautiful wife and concubine, so unhappy?
The Cao family was originally a delicate and well-known noblewoman who did not know the world, but who knew that she was also forced by Qin Lian to become a calculating inner house woman.
It's only to blame my mother and Cao's unladylike encounters, and my father... Phew, what kind of father is he?
It was the Cao family, who originally saw the Song Pozi she sent, and later met Mi Xing and Lao Li, and learned from them that the Dawan people begged the princess and the noble daughter of the clan to reconcile with each other, so they gradually pieced together her intention to come to find her suddenly, so she was also disgusted with her, but after listening to Lao Li's introduction, she only felt that she was a victim who was deceived by his father to marry like her mother.... It's just that I don't know if she knew that when she married her father at that time, he was married in his hometown......
Qin Xinxin has been silent for a long time, she must not know, she is a woman in the boudoir, and the marriage here is all based on the words of her parents' matchmakers, where is there room for them to put their beaks.
Thinking about it this way, it turned out that his biological father deserved to die, and he did not hesitate to abandon his wife and daughter for the sake of glory and wealth, and he did not cherish it after marrying a rich girl.
But I heard Lao Li continue: "The eldest lady is talented and intelligent, her skills are high, and she has the fancy of Lord Mixing, the old slave shouldn't say much, but listening to Lord Mixing's words, Miss has other plans to enter the mansion, so Miss might as well deal with Aunt Zhou more, and the old lady can also go there more often." ”
Qin Xinxin had indeed understood the meaning of his words, I was afraid that Qin Lian's mother, that is, his grandmother, had the same complaints about Mrs. Qin as Aunt Zhou.
Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a major problem, the Cao family was born in a famous and noble family, and she was married, while the old lady Qin was a widow in the countryside, and she led her eldest son to high school to explore flowers, and the poor became rich; Seeing that Song Pozi is a countryman to herself, if there is a servant, there must be a master, and when the grandmother first arrived in the Qin Mansion in Beijing, the two must have had a lot of unhappiness.
But....
Qin Xinxin waved his hand, since Qin Lian and his grandmother were both born in Ganshui Village, it would probably be easier to find out by himself. As soon as she thought of this, she hurriedly asked Lao Li.
Who knew that Lao Li replied with a sad face: "The little incompetence, I'm afraid I can't help much." The old man and the old lady are taboo to mention their origins in the house, so we as slaves don't dare to inquire, but we vaguely heard that it is from the northern countryside, which is also a little rumor that leaked out when the old man quarreled in the wife's house. ”
"There was no old slave in the list of going to Ganshui Village to pick up the eldest lady home, but it was Song Pozi who sent a letter later, saying that something went wrong, and the house hurriedly lined up the old slave to answer. At first, all the people sent were the wife's people, and it wasn't until something happened in the back that the master ordered the servants to rush to meet them. However, when we arrived, the Cao Mansion also sent someone over, and they arrived before us, and they had already been dealt with, so we didn't know what happened to the eldest lady's grandfather. It's just that after seeing us arrive, the people of the Cao family withdrew first, but the old slave remembered that we were the eldest lady who was picked up in Yangzhou Mansion. If the eldest lady wants to find out the location of Ganshui Village, I'm afraid she still has to go to that area. ”
Although Qin Xinxin was disappointed when he heard this, he had at least seen a glimmer of hope.... But the Cao family? Qin Xinxin secretly wrote down this clue, thinking that the future would be long, and she would always be able to find out what happened that day step by step and find her way home.
She was recalling what Lao Li said to her that day, when she heard a well-dressed maid push the door in, her whole body was much more arrogant than the pomegranate when she first met, and she tilted her chin slightly and said to Qin Xinxin: "Miss has been waiting for a long time, Madame, please come in and talk." ”
The pomegranate on the side couldn't help but pout.
