The shopkeeper Zhong said: "If it is not the turn of the villain to know about the matter next to it, but this matter is big, and it is also said when listening to the chatter of the drinker, the queen mother sent a decree to summon your mother a few days ago." ”

Qin Yining was shocked when he heard this, and his fair cheeks looked a little pale.

What kind of temper is the Sun family, Qin Yining can't understand it anymore, the Sun family is a person who has nothing to do and has to make trouble, not to mention the relationship between the Cao family and the Dingguo Mansion. I'm afraid that if the queen doesn't find trouble with the Sun family, the Sun family's temper will inevitably collide with words, not to mention that the queen summoned the Sun family for no reason, and it is impossible to be at ease at all.

Qin Yining said anxiously: "Then how is my mother's situation?" ”

"We really don't know about this, but if you want to come to Mrs. Taishi's identity, it won't be a big deal for the queen to summon her."

Qin Yining nodded and took a few deep breaths before settling down. I was anxious to go home.

"Someone was waiting for me outside, so I went back to the house first. It's not good to ask the elders in the house to wait for a long time, and we'll talk about business matters another day. ”

Shopkeeper Zhong nodded understandingly, and politely sent Qin Yining into the carriage.

Qin Yining returned to his heart like an arrow, and urged the coachman to speed up.

In fact, when she set off for Xihua City, she didn't worry about the Sun family, but at that time, she couldn't protect herself, and she didn't know if she could come back alive, so she couldn't take care of the rest of the things, so she naturally had no spare energy to take care of the Sun family.

Qin Yining blamed himself a little.

She was so carried away that she didn't go home immediately after returning to the city, but even had the heart to stop by to see her own property first.

Seeing Qin Yining's solemn face, Bingtang and Songlan knew that there were some bad things in the prefect, and they were also a little worried.

The carriage galloped all the way back to the Qin Mansion.

The porter saw that it was Qin Yining who came back, and he was still a little stunned for a while, Songlan and Bingtang were also clever, and ordered these people to take the soldiers who escorted back to eat and drink, and asked people to go inside to tell the old lady.

Menzi reacted at this time and ordered someone to rush in to spread the word.

Qin Yining handed over the escort to the housekeeper, ordered the reward, and took the rock candy and Songlan to the old lady's Cixiao Garden.

And when the old lady in the Cixiao Garden got the news of Qin Yining's return, she couldn't sit still, put on a cloak with big sleeves, and walked out quickly under the support of Mama Qin.

Qin Yining had just passed through the hall of Cixiao Garden, and saw the old lady wearing a tea-gold brocade Fushou pattern.

"Grandmother!"

"Oops! My Sister Yi! The old lady quickened her pace, but a pair of small feet couldn't walk fast, she walked too quickly and took three steps back and two steps, and her body was also a little shaky, and the steps of a gold-inlaid jade that she was obliquely inserted were trembling, reflecting her luxurious and jewelry.

"Grandmother, granddaughter is back." Qin Yining came closer, lifted the hem of her skirt and knelt down, and saluted the old lady first.

The old lady supported Qin Yining with both hands, and said again and again: "Okay, good, it's good to be back!" What about your father? ”

Qin Yining said with a smile: "My father is still outside the city, so he ordered me to go back to the house first." ”

As soon as he heard that Qin Huaiyuan had also come back safely, the old lady smiled and said, "Just now they talked back, I thought it was this group of little monkey cubs who coaxed my old woman!" I didn't think you'd come back. ”

The eldest maid Jixiang and Ruyi and the maids and women in the courtyard were all on the side, and they all laughed when they heard the words, and came forward to salute Qin Yining, and the scene was very lively.

The old lady took Qin Yining's hands, looked up and down, and didn't see any clues, so she said, "Let's talk to my grandmother first." He also instructed Mama Qin: "Lujuan, you quickly call someone to tell the second and third children and the girls, and say that Sister Yi is back." Tell them all to come quickly, and dinner will be served at my place. ”

"Yes." Mama Qin smiled with a smile on her face.

The old lady took Qin Yining's hand up the steps and entered the house, naturally a maidservant served the two of them and untied their cloaks, bypassed the carved interstitial screen with happy eyebrows to the inner room, and the two sat down on the Luohan bed with a red mattress by the window.

The old lady instructed Jixiang to bring a brass hand warmer to Qin Yining, and asked the maid to serve refreshments, and then said, "Why didn't your father come back with you?" How's the peace talks? ”

Seeing Qin Yining, Qin Huaiyuan was asked first twice in a row, and then he asked about peace talks, where did Qin Yining still not understand what was most important in the old lady's mind?

She had already known the old lady, and she was not angry, and said with a smile: "Back to my grandmother's words, my father and Master Cui of the Ministry of Rites are going to camp outside the city, and the emperor's will is to hold a grand welcome ceremony early tomorrow morning, and lead the hundred officials to personally welcome my father and his party into the city to celebrate the success of the peace talks." ”

When the old lady heard this, she stroked her palms, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were smiling: "Good, good!" Did you go well this time? ”

"Back to the old lady, everything is going well, my father is outstanding, my granddaughter just watched from the sidelines, and my father successfully completed the peace talks, which is really admirable!"

Qin Yining said this, just to tell the old lady that she was useless this time, and she was still perfect, and at the same time praised Qin Huaiyuan, and also indirectly patted the old lady's ass.

Qin Yining can see it through. The old lady is selfish and powerful, and he is very ruthless to everyone, maybe all the love in this life has been used on Qin Huaiyuan, praising Qin Huaiyuan, in the old lady's ears, it makes her even more happy than praising her.

Sure enough, the old lady nodded again and again with a smile, and said to Mama Qin, Jixiang and Ruyi beside him: "Your eldest master was different when he was a child, and he was extremely intelligent, and now he can do such a big thing, and the other two countries restore peace and avoid the suffering of the people, which is really a great merit, and the history book will also record this one!" He really deserves to be the son of my Qin family! ”

"It's not that you teach well, old lady." Mama Qin also took the opportunity to put on a high hat for the old lady, which made the old lady laugh proudly.

As he spoke, there was a mixed sound of footsteps outside, and the curtain of the door was raised, and the second lady and the third lady entered the door with the girls in each room.

Qin Yining stood up, his eyebrows swept over everyone, and he didn't see Sun's figure.

Her heart hung up, but she still smiled on her face, and saluted the second lady and the third wife: "Second aunt, third aunt." ”

"Sister Yi'er is back!"

The second and third ladies both smiled and greeted each other.

In fact, in their opinion, Qin Yining's reputation was ruined the day he left the city. Now that the people are back, they still can't find what attitude to use to face her for a while.

The two of them looked at Qin Yining without a trace, wanting to see if there was any change in her.

Qin Yining could also see the embarrassment of the sisters in the family, as well as the appearance of the old lady who wanted to ask but was embarrassed to ask directly, so she held back a fire in her heart.

She smiled and asked, "Why didn't you see my mother?" Is her body uncomfortable again? ”

When everyone heard this, they were silent for a while.

Qin Yining knew that something was not good when he saw everyone's expressions, and turned his head to look at the old lady inquiringly.
