Qin Guanrui stared at Mei Zhi with a cold face and said, "Such a stupid thing, I can't even understand the master's words, what's the use of keeping it." also tried to speculate on the master's mind privately, and made such a big mistake, if she was kept, I don't know what kind of catastrophe would be caused in the future, so it was better to sell it early. ”

Qin Jingxi's aggrieved eyes were tearful in an instant: "Third brother, even if Mei Zhi is wrong, Mei Zhi is also my maid, she has been with me for many years, I ......"

As he spoke, tears were about to fall.

Qin Guanrui couldn't bear it in his heart, but after raising his eyes and seeing Qin Chaojiu's eyes with a little coldness, he gritted his teeth and said: "Such a slave, my Hou Mansion categorically can't tolerate it, come here!" ”

"Yes."

"Pull both of them down for me, give me twenty strokes, and find someone to sell them."

"Yes!"

"Miss, Miss save the slaves, the slaves and maids are all dedicated to the Miss, Miss, Miss, Miss......" Mei Zhi begged bitterly, and was soon gagged by the old lady who was quick with her hands and feet.

Chen Sanniang was even more frightened and softened on the spot, and when she was dragged away, she cried directly.

Qin Guanrui finally looked at Qin Jingxi's face, and reduced it from fifty to twenty canes.

But Qin Jingxi glared at Qin Guanrui fiercely, turned his head and lay on the table, crying.

The grievances in her heart at the moment are real, from childhood to adulthood, the third brother did not spoil her for the first time, and relied on her.

Qin Guanming walked to Qin Guanrui's side, his eyes lowered: "Third child, you broke your sister's heart, and you didn't apologize to your sister regardless of your sister's mood?" ”

After the words fell, Qin Guanming hurriedly pulled out a stool, sat next to Qin Jingxi, and said softly and steadily: "Sister, don't cry, the second brother will immediately send someone to stop it, and never let the plum branches be sold." ”

Qin Guanrui immediately said coldly: "No, Mei Zhi should be punished for making a mistake, I also did this for the sake of Jingxi's future, if you are really for the good of your sister, you should find a more secure maid for your sister to come back." ”

Qin Guanming stretched out his hand and pushed Qin Guanrui: "What do you know!" I see that you are also blinded by lard. ”

Qin Guanrui was pushed and staggered, and his face instantly turned red from anger and wrongdoing.

Qin Guanrui turned around and stood on the other side of Qin Jingxi, and said earnestly: "I'm really for your good, that girl from Mei Zhi has no brains at first glance, the person she misunderstood your meaning today is Qin Chaojiu, and tomorrow it may be in your name to target others, what will you do then?" ”

"I don't listen, I don't listen, the third brother just likes his sister, and the third brother just can't see his sister being wronged, so he has to sell my person, I know that only my sister is the Qin family, I originally ...... Originally, he was just an outsider, woo......" Qin Jingxi was already crying on the table.

These words were like a knife hitting Qin Guanrui's heart, stabbing his heart into a big hole sentence by sentence.

He didn't think so, why did his sister have to say that?

Qin Chaojiu has always admired Qin Jingxi's ability to forcibly shift the focus, and secretly decided that perhaps, she also has to learn this ability, maybe it can be used at a critical moment.

The wicked had been punished, and Qin Chaojiu turned around to see how the bamboo wound was healing.

Originally, she wanted to find a doctor to treat the bamboo knot as soon as possible, but the bamboo joint was a strong one, so she had to ask Qin Chaojiu to take this breath first, endure the pain, and find the eldest lady.

"Hey, my eldest lady, why are you crying, have you been wronged by something?"

In the distance, at the gate of the courtyard, a weather-covered woman trotted over, dressed in colorful brocade, and on her head was a beaded flower of a pink peach blossom that did not match her age.

She ran all the way to Qin Jingxi, and when she saw Qin Jingxi crying with tears on her face, her eyes were full of distress.

Turning his head to Qin Chaojiu, he scolded again: "What good things have you done?" It's useless every day, rats know how to make holes, and you can only know how to make trouble everywhere, and now that you're capable, you dare to bully your sister? Hurry up and apologize to your sister! ”

The woman, with her rough fingers calloused on her face, almost touched Qin Chaojiu's nose.

This person is Qin Chaojiu's adoptive mother Wen, whose real name is Wen Ting.

is also Qin Jingxi's biological mother.

Qin Chaojiu took a step back slightly, and his cold gaze fell on Wen Ting's body.

This is the mother who raised her for sixteen years, but also beat and scolded her for sixteen years.

The original owner has always wondered why other people's mothers have cared for their children in every way, and how it is that only their own mothers have beaten and scolded themselves since they were children.

It wasn't until someone told her that she wasn't her mother's biological child that it dawned on her.

She thought that Wen treated her badly because she was not born to her. When she returns to the Hou Mansion and meets her biological father, she will definitely be good to her.

But the reality is often even more brutal.

Neither the biological mother nor the adoptive mother loved her.

Qin Chaojiu's heart gave birth to a trace of sadness and pity, no matter how hard the original owner of this body tried, no matter how good it was, they couldn't see it.

Even if she didn't appear through her body, presumably whether it was the Hou Mansion or the Wen family, when they saw her cold body, they wouldn't have half of pity and guilt.

They may even say that whoever told her to be self-conscious, she had to practice dance desperately here, she didn't know how many pounds and taels she had, and she found it herself when she died.

sighed: "Everyone has a life." ”

A few more false tears, or ...... Not a single tear.

The heart that belonged to the original owner trembled slightly, and it was contracted for a moment and then suddenly released, and the pain spread out at that moment.

On Qin Chaojiu's beautiful and fair face, there was a moment of compassion and sorrow flashing, and then she returned to her usual cold look.

If it was in the past, the slightest change in her mood would not have been noticed by anyone, but today, Qin Guanrui didn't know why, he actually raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Chaojiu more.

It was that glance that clearly saw the pain in the depths of her eyes.

The thoughts were fleeting, Qin Chaojiu raised his eyes and looked at Wen Ting: "Mother, how do you know that I must be wrong?" ”

Wen Ting swore and said, "Do you still need to think about this? I can guess with my toes, that is, you made your sister unhappy, and you are jealous that your sister can grow up in the Hou Mansion since she was a child, and you can only grow up in the countryside with me. ”

came with Wen Ting, as well as her son Cheng Qiang, who is Qin Chaojiu's elder brother.

Cheng Qiang was tall and thin, standing there like a bamboo pole.

Cheng Qiang glared at him with squinting eyes, and said to Wen Ting: "Mother, what nonsense do you talk to her, just let her apologize to my sister, my sister is golden, how can she be bullied." ”

"You quickly kneel down and apologize to my Jingxi!"

Wen Ting said, and he was going to kneel down with his own hands and press Qin Chaojiu.

Qin Chaojiu's eyes were awe-inspiring, and he shouted lightly: "You dare!" Don't forget, this is the Hou Mansion, not the Chengjia Village. ”

Wen Ting stepped forward to grab someone's hand and immediately paused.

Yes, although the Qin Dynasty was not favored in the Hou Mansion, now she is also a person with a biological father, and she is the second lady of the Hou Mansion.

Cheng Qiang sneered on the side: "I think you just forgot, who pulled you up with a handful of and urine, why, now that you are the second lady of the Hou Mansion, you dare to talk to your mother like this?" I'm going to beat you up today, I'm going to see who's going to stand up for you little slut! ”

Cheng Qiang said, his face showed ruthlessness, raised his hand and slapped towards Qin Chaojiu.

Seeing Cheng Qiang make a move, Qin Guanming and Qin Jingxi on the side did not move at all.

But Qin Guanrui couldn't help it, stepped forward to stop Cheng Qiang, he lowered his voice, and shouted angrily: "This matter is not Qin Chaojiu's fault!" ”

"It's not her fault, she should fight too!"

Cheng Qiang shouted that he was going to fight Qin Chaojiu again, but because Qin Guanrui stopped in front of him, he didn't dare to push, so he could only shout loudly: "Look at her eyes now, she is very high, she no longer takes my brother in her eyes, if she doesn't beat her, she really thinks that she is a daughter." ”

The matter of Qin Guanrui punishing the two subordinates soon reached Bai Wan's ears.

Bai Wan didn't ask the reason, she directly ordered to save the plum branch, and hurriedly came towards Xixueyuan.

Cheng Qiang's shouting voice was heard from a distance, and Bai Wan couldn't help frowning.

After bringing Qin Chaojiu back to the mansion, Wen Ting and Cheng Qiang's mother and son were also arranged by them to live in a separate courtyard in the Hou Mansion.

Today, I don't know how they came over, and they also came to Jingxi's courtyard, which made Bai Wan feel unhappy in her heart.

"Jingxi, what happened, how did you dispose of the plum branches?" Bai Wan walked over, walked to Qin Jingxi's side as soon as she came, took her hand and asked softly.

Qin Jingxi's eyelashes stained with tears lifted slightly, glanced in the direction of Qin Chaojiu, seemed to think of something sad, and as soon as he turned his head, he threw himself into Bai Wan's arms and cried bitterly.

She didn't say a word, but she seemed to say a lot.

A wave of anger instantly arose from the bottom of Bai Wan's heart, and she swept towards Qin Chaojiu with disappointment in her eyes, and asked, "How long are you going to make trouble before you want to give up?" You were in the limelight at the palace banquet, you also received the reward of the queen's mother, you also lived in the big courtyard, and the posts from General Shen's Mansion have been delivered to you, you should be satisfied, right? Why do you want to kick your sister's personal girl out of the door? Qin Chaojiu, don't you want the whole family to hate you, are you satisfied?! ”

Facing Bai Wan's questioning voice, looking at her disappointed face, Qin Chaojiu behaved extremely calmly.

Bai Wan's eccentricity, she has already seen it.

Qin Chaojiu's lips opened lightly, his voice was cold and clear, and there was a sound on the ground.

She spoke slowly and asked, "Mother, don't you deserve what I deserve when you say this?" ”

How did it end up in Bai Wan's mouth, but it became their gift to her?
