Chapter 252: Concession
"Ah, sir, you can't admit such a thing!" Qin Mu's sharp shout sounded instantly.
Qin Ziqing still raised his head and looked at Qin Mian, the expression on his face was obscure. He lowered his head, "Please don't be angry with the child's question, the child just wants to know the real situation." ”
Qin Mian sneered: "The real situation, isn't this the real situation you are expecting?" ”
Mother Qin was stunned, this, what is the situation at the moment, she looked at Qin Mian and her son at a loss, not knowing what she should do at this time.
"Father, if we didn't do it, you just have to say no, but if we do it, the child should also have the right to know. The child has already explained that the child only wants to know the most real situation, and does not dare to speculate on anything. Moreover, only by knowing the most real situation can children know how to deal with it in front of outsiders. ”
"Xuan'er, this matter really doesn't do anything to us." Seeing that Qin Mian didn't speak, Qin Mu spoke.
Qin Ziqing looked at his mother, looked at his father, Qin Mian didn't speak again since that sentence, he just looked at Qin Ziqing at this time, as if he was wondering whether what his son said was true or false. Qin Ziqing had already kowtowed again, knelt down straight and said, "Since this is the case, the child knows." ”
After speaking, he got up and stood up to say goodbye, but was pulled by Qin's mother: "What do you know?" ”
Qin Ziqing was puzzled: "Didn't Mother Fang Cai say it, this matter has nothing to do with our house." That's what the child knows. ”
Mother Qin patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. I thought he had seen something flawed.
"The child was a little tired because he came back from the road, so he didn't accompany his father, and the child retired first." Seeing that Qin's mother didn't say anything, Qin Ziqing said goodbye.
Qin's mother was as kind and pleasant as usual, and said, "Okay, go quickly." It's important to get a good rest. On the one hand, he was busy calling people to serve his son to rest, and he was not at ease, so he explained a few sentences to Qin Mian and walked to his son's yard with Qin Ziqing.
At this time, in the middle of the night, although several masters have not rested, but most of the people left are night watchmen, the maids in front of them carry lanterns on both sides, followed by a few servants, and there is no one else on the road.
Qin's mother took her son's hand and asked as if unintentionally, "Didn't you promise to help others do things and leave?" Why did you come back all of a sudden? Is it because you heard that? ”
Qin Ziqing answered them one by one, without any emotional fluctuations in his tone. "I heard from people on the road that the Su family's affairs must have been caused by business competition, and they also said that maybe it was the closest person who did it. The child thought to himself that this closest thing was not our house, and he quarreled with someone at that time, and came back to confirm it in a fit of anger. As for the thing that helped people, in fact, it was not a big deal. I've already sent Ah Si to deliver the message. ”
Mother Qin was startled, and hurriedly looked back: "What?" Did you come back on your own? Ah Si didn't follow? ”
Qin Ziqing just smiled and said nothing.
"How can this work? I don't even have a waiting guy when I go out! Mother Qin was a little impatient.
Qin Ziqing hurriedly stopped: "Mother, I'm just coming back, and besides, isn't Ah Si being spent by me to do things." I'm already so old, what's not to worry about. ”
Qin's mother was disgusted: "It's so big? How old are you? You don't understand the mood of being a mother at all. ”
"Yes, it's the child's fault." Qin Ziqing said with a smile.
The mother and son walked silently for a while, and Qin Ziqing suddenly said: "There is one thing, please ask my mother to help me." ”
"What's the matter?" Qin's mother asked.
"The child knows that my father and mother want me to go through the imperial examination and earn a reputation to glorify my ancestors. But, mother, as you know, I don't really like this very much. Sometimes I envy my brother even more, he can do what he likes. ”
"What's his favorite thing about that?" Mother Qin interrupted, "Taking care of the family's property, what's not to like about it." It's just to make money, and no matter how much money you have, you're looked down upon by those officials. It's better to take a good test for fame. ”
Qin Ziqing was a little helpless: "Look, mother, you have said so much before I finish talking here." ”
Qin Mu smiled: "Okay, you say it." ”
"The child knows what his father and you are thinking, and wants me to use it wholeheartedly. But the child is really not interested in this, even if he tries his best, it is difficult to earn a little fame. Instead of wasting time on this issue, it is better to let the child spend more time helping the eldest brother take care of the business. ”
Qin's mother stopped and looked at Qin Ziqing: "Is it that the money you get when you go out is not enough, so you are struggling?" Silly boy, if it's not enough, you tell your mother, our family still lacks your money? ”
"Well, that's one aspect. Children have been used to being extravagant since childhood. I went out a few times this year, and sometimes I really found that I didn't have enough money in my hand. But I have no place to get money except the little money in my hand. So I thought that if I could learn from my eldest brother, even if I was in a hurry to use money in the future, maybe it would be of any use. When you're out of the house, no matter how much money you have, it's not as good as having skills in hand. ”
Qin's mother suddenly laughed: "You kid, you're really stupid." What kind of skill is it to take care of the industry? "Qin's mother is helpless, this child was spoiled by herself, and she doesn't know anything, and she doesn't understand things." Okay, you, just be good. As for money, I'll tell your dad when I go back, in addition to the money I give you every month, I'll give you some extra spare money. ”
"Mother, even if I have more spare money, I will always run out of money." Qin Ziqing was also speechless.
Qin's mother was helpless, "Okay, then you say, what should I do?" Learning to take care of business is not a matter of a day and a half, even if you learn from your eldest brother, it will not solve any problems for a while. Besides, you still have to think that the Lord is the Lord! ”
"Then it's better to discuss with my father and give me a shop, as soon as I come, I don't need to give me my usual spare money, I just need the profit of the shop." Second, even if it's me, I always have to take a break, learn to do business or something in my spare time, and plan for the future. ”
This is what I mean if I don't pass the imperial examination. After all, the imperial examination is a difficult thing, just in case, there is always nothing wrong with it.
This, Qin Mu felt that she really had to think about it. After all, although this son is smart, if he really doesn't understand anything, of course Qin Zipeng doesn't dare to treat his own brother harshly, but what she doesn't worry about is the Xiao family. Now that he is in charge of the house, Xiao always wants to make some small moves behind his back, so if one day the husband and wife are gone, his precious son may really be bullied by Xiao.
"Well, I'll talk to your father about it when I get back."
