Qin Liu pondered it for a long time, and finally figured it out.

Liu Xuejiang's eldest uncle Liu Lai, his wife Hu, gave birth to a cousin Liu Chengen. Hu is known as the eldest lady in the Liu family, and is the aunt of the fat cousin Hu Guangsi.

Waiting to see him outside the door was Hu Guangsi's mother, Mrs. Fang, who almost became the kind woman of Liu Xuejiang's mother-in-law.

Qin Liu's eyes were a little hesitant. She didn't have an impression of this Mrs. Fang, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

The ink dye behind him saw through Qin Liu's thoughts, and said with a smile: "The slave maid heard that the girl is married, her husband's surname is Li, and she has two children. The girl is generous to deal with Mrs. Fang, and listen to what she says, everything is ink-stained. ”

Qin Liu nodded and looked at himself in the mirror.

The upper body is inlaid with a circle of white wind hair, the lower body is a stone blue eight-piece Hunan skirt, the head is held by a silver hairpin, and the earlobes are a pair of small silver earrings.

The whole body is very plain, which is very in line with her widow character.

Qin Liu didn't have any idea about marrying Hu Guangsi. Her immediate task is to survive, the second is to take Erlang to her side, and the third is to wait for news from Bars's side.

For Mrs. Fang, who took the initiative to visit, she could only wait and see what happened.

Qin Liu followed Mo Ran to the main house in front of him, but saw that the door of the main house was open, and the subordinate was walking out of the house with a charcoal basin, and there were three people standing in the main house, and their faces were not clear for a while.

Qin Liu walked into the house and happened to hear the middle-aged woman's chatter.

"This carbon fire is the most harmful! My family thinks about it, what a good child, but he can't be harmed by this carbon fire! Be sure to open the windows to ventilate ......"

It was a sunny day outside the house, and as soon as he entered the house, his eyes needed to adapt to the darkness, and Qin Liu heard a few exclamations before he could see a few people in the house.

"Ajan!"

"Ajan!"

"Sister Ajan!"

"The people's women are late, please Mrs. Fang and Miss Gongzi don't be surprised." Qin Liu greeted each other while slowly looking at everyone in the room.

The three people in the room were all standing, and the leader was a woman in her fifties, wearing a dark blue overcoat and a green bro skirt, but with a silver hairpin ring, and she was also widowed when she looked like she was dressed, so it should be Mrs. Fang.

At the bottom left of Mrs. Fang stood a young man in his twenties with beautiful eyebrows, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl in the flower season.

The son was dressed in royal blue straight clothes, with a palace silk tied around his waist, and his eyes looked at Qin Liu with sparkling eyes, without blinking.

The flower season girl's costume is more lively, with a goose yellow placket with narrow sleeves inlaid with a circle of white hair, and a lake blue woven golden horse face skirt underneath, and the double bun on her head makes her particularly playful and cute.

Seeing Qin Liu looking over, the girl pulled the sleeve of her son's shirt and whispered, "Brother, you can't be rude." ”

Childe hurriedly retracted his gaze, his jade face blushed, and he bowed a little more hesitantly.

Mrs. Fang directly stepped forward and shook Qin Liu's hand, bursting into tears: "Six years have passed, and the vicissitudes of life are human and wrong, and Ah Jiang doesn't know us now." I'm the aunt who watched you grow up, A-Jiang! ”

As Mrs. Fang spoke, sorrow came from it, and she couldn't help crying.

Qin Liu's heart was sour, and with red eyes, he helped Mrs. Fang to the chair, and slowly comforted: "Auntie, Ah Jiang's brain has been injured, and I don't remember many things, so I ask my aunt to forgive me." All these years, how are things okay at home? ”

Mrs. Fang couldn't hold back her tears, wiped her tears and said, "Back then, your eldest uncle took our family out of Beijing and returned to Qin'an's hometown, concentrating on tutoring Guangsi's homework, and striving to let Guangsi end up in the middle of the game. Who would have thought that after studying a winter night, your cousin and uncle were injured by charcoal. Guang Si fell stupid, your uncle didn't hold on, and left before the spring was over. ”

As soon as Mrs. Fang finished speaking, tears fell like rain again.

Qin Liu finally understood the reason why Hu Guangsi, the fat cousin, did not come to Liu's house to propose marriage.

Thinking about it, Hu Guangsi was a little embarrassed because of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by burning charcoal for heating in winter, and because he lost his father, he couldn't be lifted, so he had no face to come to Liu's house to propose marriage.

Qin Liu thought of the upright scribe in his dream who questioned his grandfather Liu Jian's injustice in officialdom, and was full of emotion.

This Uncle Hu is a clean and honest official with ideals and pursuits, but he was dismissed in the power struggle, and his godson died early when he returned to his hometown.

Qin Liu turned his gaze to the young man on the side and asked suspiciously, "Is this Cousin Guangsi?" How is it not the same as I remembered? ”

The young man's white skin was swollen red, and he stammered and squeezed out a few words: "Ah Jiang, in the future, I won't snatch your chestnut cake!" I, I'll do it, make it for you to eat! ”

Qin Liu chuckled.

Mrs. Fang also collected her tears, and said with a nasal smile: "This kid has always been thinking about his cousin Jiang. I told him that Cousin Jiang had married early, and he never listened......"

Qin Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Cousin Guangsi is a talent, which is very different from when he was a child. ”

The flower girl on the side smiled like two crescents: "My brother didn't grow up before, and people love to eat and grow fat, like a leather ball." Now that I have grown taller and lost a lot of weight, I am more energetic. ”

Qin Liu blinked, trying to search for information about the little girl in front of him in his memory.

The girl introduced herself: "Sister Jiang, I am Shen Yu, when I left the capital, I still took the forbidden step you gave me, you see." ”

Shen Yu held up a piece of mutton fat jade in the skirt and forbidden, and the tassel under the forbidden step pulled two beautiful butterflies, which was very novel and refined.

Qin Liu smiled and nodded, this Miss Shen Yu has a lively temperament, and it is very likely that she is persuading her to be quiet and graceful.

"Auntie, cousin Guangsi, cousin Shenyu, it's better to stay with me for lunch, and we'll catch up with the old days."

Mrs. Fang shook her head with a smile, took her hand and said, "You are here alone now, and the New Year is too lonely." Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, so it is better to go to the Hu family with us to celebrate the New Year together, and also have a lively and festive life. ”

Qin Liu was embarrassed but firmly refused.

"Auntie, I am a newcomer, and I am a widow's family, how can I go to someone else's house for the New Year? It's better to go to the house tomorrow on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and ask my aunt for some cakes to eat by the way, and my aunt is not allowed to be stingy. ”

Mrs. Fang's red eyes narrowed with a smile: "Don't be stingy, you must not be stingy!" ”

A few people exchanged pleasantries again, Mrs. Fang looked at the sun, or reluctantly got up to say goodbye, and repeatedly told Qin Liu to come over tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings, she had a lot of thoughtful things to say.

Qin Liu responded one by one.

The ink dyeing on the side was clever, and went to wrap some raw meat and pastries as a return gift for Mrs. Fang to take back.

Qin Liu sent them to the door, and when he saw that Mrs. Fang and Shen Yu had gotten on the sedan chair and left, Hu Guangsi followed the sedan chair and turned around the corner and disappeared before returning to the house.
