Chapter 140: Pleasing at both ends
In the face of Chai Jingzhi's forced marriage, the waiter said that he would not agree to anything, and in the end, Qin Xinyi still relented and agreed to plead with her grandfather. This evening, Qin Yunhou was a little early and was reading a book in the study.
After Qin Xinyi learned about it, she came to the study and walked in directly, shouting coquettishly: "Grandpa!".
Qin Yunhou was very happy to see his baby granddaughter, looked at her and asked, "It's Xin'er!" Something to do with grandpa?".
Qin Xinyi didn't say what she meant, and said pretendedly: "I'm here to see grandpa!" Why didn't you take care of business today?".
Qin Yunhou put down the book and replied pointedly: "I will be the examiner next year, I haven't read these books for a long time, review them!".
Qin Xinyi leaned over and looked at it pretendedly. Qin Yunhou still knew that she had something to ask for herself, and looked at Qin Xinyi and said deliberately: "I heard that the Xia family is going to give Xia Xunqiu to Tang Tong, and the two met in Cao's mansion.".
Qin Xinyi was taken aback, pretending to be disappreciative and said, "What does this matter to me.".
Qin Yunhou saw that Qin Xinyi's face was obviously a little surprised, and then said: "You can't marry Lan Tingshu, under the persecution of Xia Zhan, Xia Xunqiu chose Tang Tong, but Tang Tong and Lan Tingshu have a good relationship, do you believe it?".
Qin Xinyi heard that her grandfather was waking herself up, and she didn't seem to care, "Grandpa is saying that Xia Xunqiu deliberately chose Tang Tong, did he want to get rid of Chen Dingxian?".
Qin Yunhou still admired his granddaughter's cleverness and nodded with satisfaction. Qin Xinyi said questioningly: "But you can obviously refuse!".
"This is the difference between people who are smart and not smart, if you want to mix in the capital, how can you not give Xia Zhan face!".
Qin Xinyi understood that Tang Tong was also a last resort, and even her grandfather didn't dare not give Xia Zhan face when she looked at the capital, not to mention the little Tang Tong. While Qin Xinyi was thinking about it, Qin Yunhou said again: "I heard that Tang Tong is interesting to you?".
Of course, Qin Xinyi didn't admit it, and said, "It's not like that!".
Qin Yunhou didn't pursue it in detail, and explained: "This person doesn't want to think about it anymore!" He has fallen into the clutches of Cao Tong and can't turn over.", Qin Xinyi was a little puzzled, and wanted to ask again. Qin Yunhou politely refused: "Grandpa still wants to read, you can go!".
At this time, Qin Xinyi had to talk about the book, and pulled Qin Yunhou's right arm, "The booklet doesn't want to marry Commander Chai, grandpa!" You're going to quit this business, right?".
Seeing that his granddaughter finally couldn't help but beg herself, Qin Yunhou naturally said, "You don't have to go back to your family!"
Qin Xinyi thought that her grandfather didn't want to retreat, so she continued to shake Qin Yunhou's hand constantly, "You just agree!".
That knew that Qin Yunhou quickly replied, "I said that I don't need to retreat, because the Chai family withdrew first.".
Qin Xinyi was overwhelmed when she heard this, and asked again in disbelief, "What's going on?".
Qin Yunhou didn't know why, so he could only shake his head, "This afternoon, Commander Chai came to me and said that Mrs. Chai didn't agree, so she could only compromise, and she said a lot of good things, and I didn't care about it anymore.".
Qin Xinyi also felt strange, Mrs. Chai had agreed before, why she suddenly changed her mind, she was really puzzled. Now that things have a happy ending, don't bother with it.
Qin Xinyi was thinking about this all the way back, but she still couldn't understand it. Returning to his small courtyard, he said in front of the four people who hugged the qin, Si Qi, the waiter and the painting: "The Chai family has retired today, and the waiter does not need to marry into the Chai family!"
After staying for a long time, they all had feelings that they couldn't give up, and the three of them were all happy for the waiter, and they all cheered loudly and jumped up. I saw that the forgetful servant listened to it, and inadvertently said: "I knew he would handle this well!".
Seeing that the waiter was speechless, Baoqin asked puzzledly, "Who do you say he is?".
When the waiter saw that he had missed his mouth, he immediately replied, "Of course it's the old man!".
Into the painting sneered: "You just say that the old man will not get it.", and the three of them all said hello to the waiter.
But this matter did not escape Qin Xinyi's eyes, and soon the three of them opened the hug qin, leaving one of the servants, "Did you tell Tang Tong about this?".
The waiter didn't expect the young lady to know about this, so he was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and replied: "It was my second sister-in-law who told him, not my will.".
Qin Xinyi was very angry, "Can't I help you?".
The waiter was a little aggrieved, and hurriedly waved his hand, "I told Miss that I didn't want to marry, and you persuaded me that I could only ask Tang Gongzi.".
Qin Xinyi didn't expect the servant to call Tang Tong a son, it seems that this girl has selfish intentions towards Tang Tong. Thinking of his grandfather's words again, whether Tang Tong, who was mired in the quagmire, could survive this catastrophe, he couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart, and wanted to inquire about Tang Tong's situation, so he could only rely on the servant to do this, and there was no more embarrassment for her.
The next day, the waiter came to the Tang Mansion with a familiar car, and welcomed her to the living room like a VIP of the old scene. Tang Tong was not there, Chen Xiao came out and greeted him with a smile, "Girl in waiting!" It's been a long time.".
The waiter hurriedly saluted, "Hello Sister Chen!".
Chen Xiao was still full of scenery, and greeted politely: "Sit down!" Our master went to the barracks, and Steward Jing should send someone to call him, wait first!".
The waiter sat down and asked very casually, "What is Sister Chen busy with?".
Chen Xiao said with a smile on his face: "What can I do, just take Huzi!" The waiter girl wants to know what our master is doing, right?", the waiter blushed a little when he heard this, and Chen Xiao continued: "I don't know much about what the master is doing outside, but I come back to read the book every day until late, and I am preparing to participate in the imperial examination.".
The waiter listened very carefully, but he didn't dare to face Chen Xiao squarely, and let her speak alone. Chen Xiao said tentatively: "We don't dare to ask about the master, the maid speaks, the master will not blame!".
The waiter hurriedly excused himself, "It's not so magical, he just wants to find out the news of our young lady through me.".
Chen Xiao was a little eager and couldn't wait to say; "The squire girl needs to help us a lot!".
"Of course!", the waiter nodded hurriedly.
Chen Xiao said with a smile on his face: "As long as Miss Qin becomes our wife, the master will not treat the girl badly!".
The waiter didn't know how to reply, so he could only be silent, Chen Xiao stared at the waiter, "The waiter girl is so beautiful, then Miss Qin should be more knowledgeable and courteous, as beautiful as a fairy?".
The waiter replied truthfully: "Our young lady is introverted and not good at communicating, but she still has Tang Gongzi in her heart, but our old man and the old man don't agree very much, but I believe that Tang Gongzi will have a way."
Chen Xiao nodded and said his opinion. If the imperial examination is in high school, our lord will definitely come to the door to propose marriage, and I hope to get my wish!", the waiter also felt the same way, and quickly nodded yes.
Tang Tong hurried back in a hurry, and as soon as he arrived in the living room, he said, "The book-maid is here!".
The waiter hurriedly got up and saluted, "Thank you Tang Gongzi for your rescue!"
Tang Tong also hurriedly waved his hand, "Thank you for your efforts!".
Chen Xiao was very interested, "I still have something to do, you two can talk!", Tang Tong nodded and watched Chen Xiao leave.
Sitting on the seat, seeing that the waiter was still standing, he beckoned and said, "The waiter girl is sitting!", and after seeing the waiter sitting down, "Miss Qin has something to ask, right?".
The waiter wanted to hang Tang Tong's appetite, "You are so confident, I have something to ask Tang Gongzi.".
Tang Tong stretched out his hand, "Please speak!".
The waiter was also polite, "What method did Tang Gongzi use to get Commander Chai to withdraw from the marriage?".
"The book-maiden really wants to know?".
The waiter nodded, and Tang Tong had no choice but to speak, "It's nothing, it's just that I demonized you, to take the position of the main room, and I have the Qin Mansion as a backing. The main Chai Jingzhi has a handle in the hands of his wife, how dare he not obey!".
"What's the handle?".
Tang Tong smiled evilly and shook his head, "It's a dirty thing, the maid still doesn't know!", the maid didn't ask anymore after thinking about it. This matter is really thanks to Tang Tong, such as Chai Jingzhi insisted that the Qin family would definitely sacrifice himself.
The waiter returned to the truth, and asked in a tone of judgment: "Now let's talk about you and Xia Xunqiu!".
"I fell into Xia Xunqiu's trap and became her shield, and Xia Xunqiu also clearly said that he was using me.", Tang Tong hurriedly explained, with a look of grievance.
The waiter came to ask questions on behalf of Qin Xinyi, and the routines were all agreed. "Why don't you refuse?".
"Xia Zhan and Cao Tong don't even dare to offend Qin Ge Lao lightly, not to mention that I, a petty official, can only agree first and then find a way!", Tang Tong shouted that he was wronged, and he almost kowtowed.
The waiter looked at Tang Tong with an aggrieved look, and couldn't help but feel funny. But he asked sternly, "Tell me what tricks you have!".
Tang Tong solemnly rounded the field for himself, "In terms of emotional matters, there are no tricks, you can only take one step at a time, I persuade Xia and Autumn to go on a hunger strike to protest, it should have an effect, right?".
As soon as the servant heard this kind of bad trick, it seemed that Tang Tong was also poor in donkey skills, and he couldn't help but worry about whether it would be effective. Then he asked, "If not, what should you do?".
Tang Tong raised his hand and swore, "Quit!" Resolutely quit! I only have Miss Qin in my heart.".
"Your appearance, our young lady must be very moved when she sees it!", the waiter said with a mocking tone.
Tang Tong let out a long sigh of relief, "You don't know my difficulties, I'm a rat in the bellows now, and I don't know what to do!".
The attendant looked at him worriedly, "I understand! But our young lady and Xia Shunqiu don't deal with each other, and if we don't get both, we will have a bad reputation of stepping on two boats.".
Tang Tong suddenly stood up and walked to the waiter, "You still understand me best!", and was about to grab the waiter's hand, but the waiter shook off Tang Tong's hand and reprimanded: "Be serious!" I'm talking to you on behalf of Miss."....
Tang Tong had no choice but to sit back in his seat, and the waiter said solemnly: "I hope you will solve the matter with Xia Xunqiu as soon as possible, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"
Tang Tong nodded hurriedly, "I must hurry up!" I won't let Miss Qin down!", the words were finished, and the waiter put down the shelf. began to worry about whether Tang Tong would be able to get out of this mess, and looked at Tang Tong with a fixed gaze. Tang Tong understood the mood of the waiter, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and I am confident that I will get out of this predicament!", the mood of the servant was eased when he heard this sentence.
