Chapter 751: A family does not become a family
The eunuch who passed the word said that he would arrive at about three quarters in the future, and Qin Yu's family was supposed to be waiting at the gate of the mansion at two minutes. But seeing that it was not three moments at this time, there was no movement at the door of the house.
In the Prime Minister's mansion, Zhao Kang and Qin Yu went to the study after lunch to look at the paintings of Mr. Baishan that Qin Yu had just obtained recently, Qin Yingxuan and her mother went to the warehouse to look at the clothes, and it seemed that no one cared about Qin Yingyue's return to the province at all.
No one shows that they care, but it doesn't mean that no one really cares. At this time, everyone was calculating the time in their hearts, and felt that according to the distance from the palace to the prime minister's house, even if the sedan chair walked very slowly, it was time to arrive.
Zhao Kang is enough to be ignorant of his family's affairs, and after listening to Qin Yu's evaluation, Zhao Kang followed with his approval, as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Father, is it time to pick up the concubine?" ”
Qin Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, my family doesn't care about this." When the people in the palace arrive at the door, let's just go out again. ”
Zhao Kang nodded and said, "Yes." ”
But after a pause, he asked without seeing anything: "Father, for some reason, why does the son-in-law always feel that his father and mother don't like the concubine?" Xuan'er also told her son-in-law that the concubine was not, but the son-in-law only thought that this was just a matter between sisters. Consideration between women, we men naturally don't have to take it to heart. Now I see my father's meaning...... But when the concubine was in the house in her early years, what did she do to her father's disobedience? ”
Zhao Kang asked calmly, as if he really regarded this as his own family matter, and there was nothing to avoid. Qin Yu originally didn't want to hide the discord between their family and Qin Yingyue from Zhao Kang, but it was difficult to explain the reasons for this. So he just sighed and said, "It's hard to say anything about this matter...... Kang'er, as long as you know that you are Xuan'er's husband, this is enough. As for the noble person in the palace, we can't afford to climb her, and we won't climb her, understand? ”
Zhao Kang took a step back and said, "The son-in-law is offended, I'm afraid it will make my father sad." Father's words, the son-in-law wrote down. Just ......"
"What?" Seeing that Zhao Kang stopped talking halfway through, he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"Oh. No, nothing. The son-in-law listens to his father. Zhao Kang said.
Qin Yu said: "How you and Xuan'er got married before, everyone understands in their hearts. Because of this incident, you may be grateful to the moon concubine. Although you and Xuan'er are now in love, it can be seen that there should indeed be a good relationship between the two of you, but this does not show that the original approach of the concubine was right. There is a clear difference between decent deeds and crooked ways, and they must not be confused. Kang'er......"
Qin Yu called out earnestly, and said: "It is said that the prodigal son does not change his money, he can change his mistakes, and he is very good, and my father-in-law only hopes that you can change your evil and return to righteousness, and live a good life with Xuan'er in the future." As long as you can carry everything clearly in the future, your father-in-law will never take care of the foolish things in the past. Jackals can't get along, tigers and leopards can't seek skin, do you understand your father-in-law's reminder? Can you understand your father-in-law's hard work? ”
"Father misunderstood...... Zhao Kang said with a deep salute, "The little son-in-law thinks that after all, it is a family, and there may be room for relaxation." The son-in-law just wants to share his father's worries and see a harmonious family. But since my father is so resolute, it can be seen that the discord between our family and the concubine did not come overnight, and if there is really any misunderstanding, I am afraid it will be difficult to unravel. The son-in-law will naturally listen to his father's teachings,
Qin Yu nodded with satisfaction and said no more.
Zhao Kang was distracted......
Qin Yu and Qin Yingyue were not in harmony, he naturally knew it for a long time, but now it seems that on Qin Yu's side, this discord has reached a situation where water and fire are incompatible, and if possible, they will not get along. But Qin Yingyue's side obviously wanted to win over Qin Yu. Otherwise, with Qin Yingyue's unprofitable temperament, she would never have rushed to be embarrassed.
Regardless of whether Qin Yingyue can successfully win over Qin Yu in the end, the best result for this father and daughter is to be separated. So which side should he be on? Qin Yu meant to let him stand on the side of the Prime Minister's Mansion. But Qin Yu, the old horseman, obviously couldn't give him any great benefits.
After His Majesty took power, he paid more attention to the upstarts in the court, and although he was very polite to these old ministers, he did not entrust them with heavy use. Qin Yu himself is the end of a strong crossbow, how can he take care of him? What's more, he and Qin Yingxuan have been married for so long, Qin Yu has always been lukewarm to him, and he doesn't put his son-in-law on his body. His plan to gain a firm foothold in the court by being the prime minister's son-in-law not only did not come to fruition, but made people with a heart take it as a joke.
At this time, no matter how high-sounding Qin Yu was, but because of the festival ahead, I am afraid that it is impossible to really help him. So no matter from Qin Yu's own heart or from Qin Yu's ability...... Qin Yu's side is not a wise choice.
Since it is inconvenient to choose Qin Yu, then there is only Qin Yingyue......
It seems that Qin Yingyue, a woman, really has the means, she is all disfigured, and she still has the ability to fight for the concubine position. He also thought that Qin Yingyue was destined to be lonely in the palace for the rest of her life.
For him, Qin Yingyue's side is a ready-made road, he has already walked it before, and he has walked it well. It's better to keep going, maybe you can really get to the top of the clouds.
As soon as Qin Yu put away the paintings, he heard the little maid hurriedly come and say, "Master, the concubine has already arrived outside the door." ”
Qin Yu glanced at him, nodded lightly, and said, "Okay." Did someone tell Madame and Mademoiselle? ”
"Aqua went and told me." The little guy said.
Zhao Kang heard this report, but he was not in a hurry at this time, but was carefully looking at Qin Yu's inkstone, as if he didn't want to go out.
Qin Yu said: "Virtuous son-in-law, let's go to the door to pick up the concubine." ”
Zhao Kang raised his head and said respectfully: "Yes." ”
Qin Yu was very satisfied with Zhao Kang's reaction, and naturally saw that Zhao Kang was doing what he liked, and when he didn't say that he was going, he didn't dare to speak at all.
The two went out together, and they talked happily all the way. Qin Yu didn't walk fast, so Zhao Kang didn't dare to move faster, so he could only follow him. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the mansion, I saw Mrs. Wei and Qin Yingxuan also walking slowly.
didn't meet Qin Yingyue halfway, obviously Qin Yingyue was waiting in the sedan chair, waiting for them to come to greet her, not letting herself lose her identity at all.
Seeing that Qin Yu and Zhao Kang, as well as Mrs. Wei and Qin Yingxuan had all arrived at the door, Qin Yingyue still didn't get out of the sedan chair. Because, at this time, they are in the door.
Xiao Ningzi was very eye-catching, and said with a smile: "The adults and the lady were so happy to see the mother, but they were stunned for a while, and forgot to go out to greet each other!" ”
Qin Yu and Wei glanced at each other, the eunuchs in the palace had all said this, even if they didn't want to give Qin Yingyue face, they had to give face to the palace, right? I can't do it, I still have to get out.
Seeing their family of four out of the house, Qin Yingyue just lifted the sedan curtain and said with a smile: "Father and mother have always been fine?" ”
"It's always good to go back to your mother's words." Qin Yu said. But he only gave a salute, and still stood.
Qin Yingyue smiled, no longer spoken, but looked at him in this posture of opening the curtain. Qin Yu saw that Qin Yingyue wanted them to kneel, but there was no way, even if they didn't want to, they had to kneel. If you wait for this little eunuch to remind you again, your face will be dull.
Qin Yingyue saw that the family of four knelt down, so she put down the sedan curtain, and got off the sedan chair supported by Xiao Taohua, and Manran came to the family.
"Father and mother, please hurry up, the daughter is not filial, because of this identity, it hurts the father and mother to condescend." Qin Yingyue personally helped Qin Yu up, her voice and expression were full of apologies.
Qin Yu didn't appreciate it, and said with a smile: "The distinction between the monarch and the minister cannot be abolished, Niangniang is the person next to Your Majesty, seeing Niangniang is like seeing Your Majesty, and the ministers should bow down." ”
"How did my father see him like this?" Qin Yingyue held Qin Yu's hand very affectionately.
But he didn't wait for Qin Yu's answer, and then said, "It's cold outside, let's go into the house and talk...... Xiao Tao and Xiao Ningzi, quickly bring in the birthday gift that the palace brought to my father...... There are only nine kinds of birthday gifts for the father, but each of them is personally selected by the daughter from the Si Zhen Bureau. The father also knows that the more His Majesty dotes on his daughter, the more he wants his daughter to choose more, and the daughter is embarrassed to do it. And the daughter also knows that her father has always been an honest official, and if the daughter gives her father's birthday gift too extravagantly, she is afraid that she will annoy her father. ”
Qin Yingyue said as she spoke, carrying Qin Yu with her, and walked towards the mansion as if no one was around, not caring about the Wei family and Qin Yingxuan and his wife at all. Although Qin Yu didn't want to be so close to her, after all, she was a woman, and she couldn't do too badly in her feelings, so she could only nod and say with a smile: "Niangniang has thought it through." ”
"I wonder how my father's birthday party is being prepared? Need help in the kitchen? Qin Yingyue turned around and glanced at Xiao Ningzi, and said with a smile, "Xiao Ningzi is a new slave given to her daughter by Your Majesty, and she was carefully selected by Your Majesty, and she is extremely safe." If the kitchen can't be busy, it's the same to let Xiao Ningzi follow suit. Father is called by his own family, don't be polite. ”
"The father-in-law in the palace must be doing things safely. It's just that the kitchen is already busy, and there is no shortage of manpower for a while. Don't dare to bother your father-in-law. Qin Yu said.
Qin Yingyue nodded and said, "The minions in this palace are also very good at doing things, and their skills have been taught by this palace in the past." ”
Qin Yu laughed awkwardly and stopped talking. Qin Yingyue definitely came prepared this time, and the person who came was not good. After only a few words, he has already begun to give him verbal authority. But Jiang is still old and spicy, no matter how shrewd you are, can your daughter still fight her father?
Qin Yu felt that today should only be regarded as a joke. As long as you have a good chat with your eldest daughter and eldest son-in-law, you can deal with Qin Yingyue and leave her aside. He can't offend the lady in the palace, but he can't hide?
The father and daughter seemed to be affectionate, laughing and entering the house. It is the main house of the Prime Minister's Mansion "Jiyue Hall" that is a banquet guest. Qin Yingyue walked directly to the main seat very unceremoniously and sat down, Qin Yu and Wei sat on the left and right sides of the chairs below, followed by Qin Yingxuan and Zhao Kang.
Qin Yingyue glanced at Qin Yingxuan and said with a smile: "My sister's face is getting more and more beautiful, I can see that my sister is so envious......"
Qin Yingxuan didn't give Qin Yingyue any face, snorted coldly, turned her head away, and didn't reply to her words at all.
was treated coldly, but Qin Yingyue didn't feel embarrassed at all, but continued: "Seeing my sister so beautiful, my sister is envious, and the most is happy. The two daughters of our Qin family, one of them is still beautiful. ”
