Chapter 36: Confinement
Tao Jiajia pulled Qin Shumei to sit down, and asked her maid to help look around, and then answered Qin Shumei's question.
"Of course Mrs. Dong knows, this is what she told me."
Qin Shu's eyebrows jumped, if this was Tao Jiajia's own thoughts, it could only be said that she was greedy for wealth and the powerful, and with this kind of thought, it would be difficult to persuade her to come back.
But if Mrs. Dong suggests, then maybe she can save this lost lamb.
"How did Mrs. Dong mention this to you? Tell me about it. ”
"Mrs. Dong praised me for my beauty, and always said frequently that marrying outside is a pearl secret investment, if anyone marries a woman like me, it must be a good blessing in the previous life......"
Tao Jiajia babbled for a long time, and Qin Shumei probably extracted a central idea from her rambling narrative.
The first half:
The outside world is poor, the days in the house are not worried, she is loved by the elderly, and she is loved by two sisters-in-law, only by staying in Xufu forever is to find the harbor of life and the destination of life.
Second half:
How miserable it is to have no heirs, how glorious it is to give birth to a child, if she enters the second room and gives birth to a child, the glory will be shared with the Dong family, and the child will be raised with the Dong family.
Summary:
It's all fart.
Qin Shumei directly interrupted her lengthy narration with questions.
"Are you happy with Xu Dingkun?"
"The second brother is my sister and treats me well, if I follow him......"
"If you marry him, you will not be his sister, but his concubine. If you don't have a relationship between a man and a woman, how are you going to divide his affection in the future? Is it just the status of a righteous sister? ”
Tao Jiajia's smile froze, her beautiful fantasy only had a rough outline that Dong had built for her, and she didn't consider this kind of detail.
"You are a concubine, how are you going to face the old lady and the old general?"
"My father and mother have always followed me..."
"That's because your father's kindness has nothing to do with you."
Qin Shumei put the truth that was directly dissected in front of Tao Jiajia bloodily. Her face turned pale and her lips quirmed, but she couldn't say anything to refute it.
"Your father's life was exchanged for the Xu family's upbringing of you. But if you are in a hurry to marry Xu Dingkun and be young, how do you want the second elder to look at you? Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law only have a hard time, how much love is left? ”
She knew that she was cruel when she said this, but it was such a cruel fact that could wake up this girl. Qin Shumei breathed a sigh of relief and let Tao Jiajia digest it on her own for a while.
"One last question."
Tao Jiajia raised her head blankly, and there was no brilliance in her eyes.
"Your child, was it born to the Dong family, or was it born to yourself?"
"I gave birth, of course, to my child."
"Then do you know that the children born in the concubine room need to be raised in the real lady's room?"
Qin Shumei stroked her knees.
"Look at the Dong family, didn't you marry Xu Dingkun longer than you? She can't give birth, how can you be sure that you can? If you can't give birth, will she give you a good face when the time comes? ”
"You are a concubine, you have no support from the elderly, no husband to love, and no wife to support you, how will you live in the future?"
The words have been said thoroughly, Qin Shumei didn't say anything more, she quietly brushed her sachet and ears, just waiting for Tao Jiajia to figure it out by herself.
She was forced to enter the Xu Mansion as a guest, and she and Tao Jiajia only met in Pingshui, if it weren't for the fact that she was quite simple and her heart was not bad, she wouldn't have had to get involved in this kind of thing.
Tao Jiajia has lived in Xufu since she was a child, with fine clothes and food, no one disobeys her, but no one educates her. For her, the Xu family is the happiest nest of happiness, and it is precisely because of this that when the Dong family mentioned it to her, she would have an idea.
"I, but I...... I married out of the Xu Mansion, can I live well in the future? ”
When Qin Shumei heard this, he almost wanted to look up to the sky and laugh three times.
"What's wrong with it? If you want me to say, you are waiting for the old lady to find a serious person to marry, with the wealth left by your own family, and the dowry that the Xu family pasted for you, you can live with your waist in your husband's house. Xu Mansion has a lot of affection with you, you can be regarded as half of your mother's family, with this big Buddha here, are you still afraid of being bullied? ”
That Xu Dingkun is a person with no future and a confused head, not only that, but also a trinity of mom and dad and brother bao, and marrying him is to jump into the big fire pit.
However, in the second half, Qin Shumei didn't open his mouth and said, after all, slandering other people's sons in other people's homes is not just to make himself uncomfortable.
Tao Jiajia was moved by Qin Shumei's words. Since she and Lu, the old lady knocked on her side several times to ask what kind of husband she liked, thinking that she was considering her marriage. This is also why, she did not respond to Dong's words for a long time, and begged the old lady to be a child.
Qin Shumei saw that she had changed her mind and breathed a sigh of relief silently. Fortunately, this Tao Jiajia is not a stupid person, I just beg her not to leak her mouth in the future and confess herself. If that's the case, the beams of himself and Xu Dingkun will be considered to be another layer.
She hummed a little song and went back to the courtyard, and saw that Yang Zhaoquan was also sitting in the courtyard drinking tea calmly, without any urgency to leave the Xu family.
Qin Shumei clicked on the system interface, and the daily task check-in column was clearly marked [11/60 day], which was only two or three days away from the agreed time limit, but this person was not in a hurry to get to Liangzhou, but really became a guest in someone's house, and I don't know what to think.
"Ahem, Gorou, when are we leaving?"
Originally, he was not in a hurry, and she was not in a hurry, but now that it has ruined the good things of the Dong family, it is better to get away as soon as possible before being discovered.
Yang Zhaoquan was itchy by her shouting Wulang, Qin Shumei called her Wulang in front of people, and called him by his full name later, if he always got along in front of people, he could always listen to her call himself like this, which is not bad.
"No hurry, stay for two more days."
Stay two more days?! Then wait for the beheading!
Qin Shumei rolled his eyes, it was only one day, and nearly half of her "Women's Daily Health Regimen" was asked, and if she stayed for a few more hours, I am afraid that she would have to run out of water to buy new books.
"Why did you suddenly ask about this?"
Yang Zhaoquan also poured her a bowl of tea and motioned for her to sit down and talk well.
Qin Shumei asked the two maids to leave the courtyard, and then told him all the causes and consequences of the incident.
"Now you know, right? That's why I have to run quickly, it's not beautiful to get involved in this kind of family affairs, we can leave the land of right and wrong, it's better to leave. ”
Yang Zhaoquan looked at her bright face, half helpless, half relieved. Obviously saying that it was a troublesome matter, she was extremely happy to be able to bring back a woman. Just as she taught Niu Zhuang's daughter-in-law to make sugar and saved Xu Zhenying in danger, her temperament of not being able to see others in distress has never changed.
Thinking of this, and thinking of what General Xu said in the past two days, Yang Zhaoquan took her hand.
"You've said so much about what you've seen, do you want to hear what I've been doing in the past two days?"
