Chapter 47: Steps

Tang Meng looked at those jewels and shook his head with a complicated expression.

"The girl is a downright person, you and I have never known each other in the past, you sincerely came to save me, not only can I not repay you anything, but I will not cause you trouble, you don't blame me, I am already very grateful. These jewels are regarded as gifts from me to the girl, and they are counted as my thank you gifts, and the girl must accept them. ”

"That's not possible, these are the hearts of the Qingliu people for you, and they are the good karma that your father formed in the past, and I will never ask for it. Let's not care about the past, and if you enter the house with me in the future, I will have a time when I will be tired of you, I just hope that we can support each other. As for your body, I mean I won't touch anything. ”

Qin Yining said, shoehorning the jewelry to Tang Meng, "You listen to me, it is always beneficial and harmless to save more self-esteem." ”

Tang Meng and Qin Yining tore apart for a long time, but in the end they couldn't get through.

She is not a rigid person, Qin Yining treats her so sincerely, she is very moved.

Accepting the things, Tang Meng saluted Qin Yining: "I am alone, the girl's love, I can only repay it with loyalty." ”

Qin Yining helped her up with a smile: "Meeting is fate, we support each other to live a good life, and there is still a long way to go." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, although they were masters and servants, they had a lot of emotions in their hearts, kindness and friendship.

Seeing that the matter was done, Qin Yining instructed Ruilan to recuperate from his injuries as soon as possible, so he called the servant of Zhong Da's shopkeeper and instructed him to prepare the car: "I want to go to the Dingguo Mansion." ”

The little guy should have retreated.

Tang Meng saw that there was no one around Qin Yining to serve, and he was originally going to follow, Qin Yining said with a smile: "In the past two days, I will arrange for you to return to the world, and it is justified to follow me when the time comes, Ruilan's injuries still depend on you to heal, so you can stay by Ruilan's side first." ”

Although Tang Meng was still wearing a Taoist robe, he had psychologically regarded Qin Yining as his master, so he nodded obediently.

"Don't worry, girl, I have been learning medicine from my father since I was a child, and it is difficult for me to treat a flesh wound." grabbed Qin Yining's hand again and looked at it, and said with a smile: "The girl has a lot of scars on her hands, she must have suffered a lot before, right?" I made the scar removal ointment in the past two days, and the girl wiped a box, and kept her hands back to the same as before, and even the girl's skin I had a way to regulate. ”

Where is there a woman who doesn't love beauty? Looking at the girls in the house, Qin Yining sometimes feels that she is too rough, exposed to the wind and sun, not to mention the scars and cocoons on her hands, even the skin on her face is rougher than that of other girls, but it is not obvious because she is young.

Now that he heard Tang Meng say that there was a way, Qin Yining said happily: "Then I can count on you." ”

Tang Meng patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, I'm the best at tinkering with these." ”

Qin Yining instructed Tang Meng and Ruilan again, then left the Tayun Inn and took a carriage to the Dingguo Mansion.

After lunch, it was the time for the Duchess of Dingguo to listen to the housekeepers and grandmothers to reply and send and receive the right cards.

The warm pavilion of the deliberations was busy, and Bao's mother quietly went to the Duchess of Dingguo and whispered back: "Old lady, my aunt and grandmother are here." ”

Duchess Dingguo frowned, "Let her go back to rest when she is full." It's not enough to make trouble in the room, I'm busy here, where can I have time to pay attention to her. ”

"What did Mother say?"

Without waiting for Bao's mother to go out to spread the word, Sun had already opened the warm curtain and entered the door by himself. Regardless of the housekeepers around him, he strode to the side of the Duchess of Dingguo.

"Mother, why didn't you say Qin Meng came to pick me up!"

The Duchess of Dingguo listened to the blue tendons on her forehead, and waved her hand helplessly.

Bao's mother immediately understood, and retreated with the housekeepers, leaving the space in the warm pavilion for the mother and daughter.

Only then did the Duchess of Dingguo say: "You are in a hurry, which one asked you to go back to your parents' house?" In my opinion this time, it's completely yours or not, you made a mistake yourself, do you still expect others to bow their heads and submit to weakness? If you are smart, hurry back and be your wife, don't wipe out the love between husband and wife, and you will cry when the time comes. ”

"Mother, are you my mother, why do you only know how to reprimand me every time you see me, and you only say that I am not, why don't you look at what Qin Meng has done."

Duchess Dingguo felt tired, stroked her forehead and said tiredly: "Sister Han, you are not a child anymore, do you still need to say some truths?" Your mother-in-law and your husband-in-law didn't target you at all, they said that Sister Yi'er's matter, you were ashamed, and you also took out your identity as the lady of the Dingguo Mansion to suppress people? Don't forget, you are the daughter-in-law of the Qin family! ”

"Am I doing something wrong? Sister Yi went out to see a foreign man privately, I disciplined my daughter, Qin Meng not only waved my hand away, almost pushed me to the bottom, but also scolded me, saying that my rules were not good, but I could be ruthless to my daughter, and said that I should learn the rules! “

Sun wiped his tears: "Where am I sorry for him, he actually bowed my face like this in front of everyone, my rules are not good, is it not as good as a girl who came back from the mountains?" He himself said that Sister Yi made a mistake, and I disciplined him for him, but he actually scolded me! ”

Sun's complaints, during this time, the ears of the Duchess of Dingguo were calloused. Listening to her crying and crying, if this was not her own daughter, the Duchess of Dingguo really wanted to throw people out and fend for herself.

"Sister Han, you have to be clear, Sister Yi is not only Qin Meng's daughter, but also your daughter! Shouldn't you be glad that your husband cherishes your children? Where is there a mother like you, who still compares with her own daughter? I don't think you're crying tears, it's all brains, and your brain is already empty. ”

"Mother! Why do you say that about me! ”

"Am I not right? I've been observing you for the past few days, you can't figure it out in your own mind, and you don't want to listen to what others say, you just blindly know how to cry, and you are still waiting for Qin Mengba to carry you back in a sedan chair? Let me tell you, now Qin Meng is already the imperial master! If you don't go back, your aunt will be able to ride on your head! ”

"I ......"

"You are stupid and confused, and you don't know people clearly, Qin Huining plucked you, you are still in your forties and can still fall into the trap, and you still have the face to cry at this time?! I think you should cry your brain, it's not like my daughter. ”

Sun whimpered as he was reprimanded in person.

Duchess Dingguo's temples jumped and hurt, but fortunately she stood up and wanted to go out.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Bao's mother said with a smile under the corridor: "Old lady, look who is coming." ”

As soon as the warm curtain was lifted, Qin Yining entered the door with a smile, the scarlet brocade cloak on her body reflected her pretty face in white and pink, beautiful like a newly bloomed plum blossom in the backyard.

"Grandmother." Qin Yining bowed.

Duchess Dingguo was pleasantly surprised to help people up: "My sister Yi, why did the cold weather come?" ”

Qin Yining looked at the Sun family on the side, then winked at the Duchess of Dingguo, took off the cloak and handed it to Bao's mother, and then went to the Sun family to salute.

"My daughter has seen Madame."

Sun was angry at this time, and when he thought that the cause of this incident was that Qin Yining went out of the house without permission, he naturally didn't like it when he saw people, so he wiped his tears and snorted away from his face.

The Duchess of Dingguo frowned, but stood in place and did not move.

She wanted to see what Qin Yining wanted to do.

Qin Yining saw that Sun's crying eyes were red, and he still ignored him, so he knew that Sun had not recovered after seven or eight days, so he had to kneel upright.

"Madame, don't be angry, everything is mine."

Sun snorted coldly: "Do you still know that you are wrong? Then how can you have so much courage to go out to see a foreign man, and run to Ning Wangfu single-handedly to ask for someone, what a bold man! ”

"At that time, I was also eager to save people, and I just wanted to do my best. I didn't expect King Ning to give Miss Tang to me directly. However, it is precisely because of this incident that my father was able to ascend to the position of the Grand Master, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Qin Yining lowered his head and replied.

When Sun heard this, he didn't understand what it meant.

The Duchess of Dingguo nodded when she heard this, secretly thinking that she had not seen the wrong person, and stepped forward to help Qin Yining up, and said: "It's cold on the ground, just sit and talk, your mother is angry now, and some things can't be figured out, just tell her about it." ”

"Yes." Qin Yining smiled gratefully at the Duchess of Dingguo, and then told the Sun family one by one about King Ning's strategy, the changes in the pattern caused by Tang Meng's incident, the official position of Cao Taishi and why Qin Huaiyuan was able to ascend to the position of Taishi.

Sun Shi didn't cry, but looked at Qin Yining with some consternation, "These words were taught to you by your father?" ”

"It's all my daughter's own thoughts," Qin Yining smiled shyly and said, "I'm also thinking nonsense, I don't know if it's right, and I think that if I become a prince like this, I will definitely go to King Ning immediately." ”

Duchess Dingguo's eyes flashed when she heard this, and she asked with a smile: "Why do you say that?" ”

Qin Yining said with a smile: "The emperor will definitely not like to see his courtiers form a party, King Ning is originally a martial prince, and he has a certain prestige in the army, if he is good friends with the new Taishi, where can the emperor rest assured?" I think even if my father doesn't do this, King Ning will impeach my father again, and only if the two are not close can the balance of the court be maintained. ”

"Good boy." Duchess Dingguo pulled Qin Yining over, hugged her in her arms, patted her on the back and said, "You're right, your grandfather just told me about your father's participation in King Ning today." I really didn't misread you, you're a smart kid. ”

Sun Shi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Qin Yining in a daze.

The Duchess of Dingguo sighed when she saw this.

Qin Yining knelt down for Sun again, and said, "In any case, it's not right for my daughter to go out without permission, and Mrs. can teach her daughter a lesson." Now that my father has ascended to the position of the Grand Master, the Prince of the Day After Tomorrow will come to the door in person, and the house will hold a banquet for the teacher, and the mother is now Mrs. Taishi, if you are not present, the father's face will not be able to pass ah, you and your father are deeply in love, where is the overnight hatred. My daughter has come today to make amends to you and beg you to go home. ”
