In the house, Mrs. Qin leaned on the big pillow, and a girl knelt on the ground to beat her legs.

Seeing the old lady come in, the old lady Qin said lazily: "This girl, it will not be easy in time." ”

"Yes, after all, it is an old lady's blood on your body, and it is still a bit like you, but compared to when you were young, it is still 108,000 miles away." The old lady stepped forward to pour tea and handed it to the old lady, and smiled and complimented.

"Alas, we are all old, and this heart has also softened." Old Mrs. Qin did not accept the tea, but looked at this person who had served her all her life.

Seeing that she was already old and still serving herself wholeheartedly, the old lady was a little touched in her heart: "When I saw this girl Qin Ying, I suddenly remembered that we were at that time." At that time, it was really difficult for the two of us! ”

The old lady sat on the edge of the kang and nodded with feeling, their master and servant life is not easy, the old lady has not even married in her life for the old lady, and she has no heirs.

"If it weren't for the old lady who left early, leaving you with such a big mess, and a few children who haven't grown up, the old lady wouldn't have worked so hard."

How easy is it for a widow to keep a large inheritance?

Only they know how much blood their hands have been stained with, and how many families have been destroyed.

Therefore, after her sons got married, the old lady began to eat fasting and chant Buddha every day, ignoring the mundane things outside.

"You haven't paid attention to those mundane things for many years, why do you want to see this girl today, and you are still angry with her, why bother?"

Old Madam Qin sat up, waved her hand, and asked the little maid to go down.

"But I can inquire clearly, who let those fools come to the Qin family?" After waiting for the people to leave, Old Lady Qin asked with a serious expression.

"Go back to the old lady and inquire clearly. Everyone said that there was a woman in a hood who sent them a letter in a carriage saying that they should come to the old lady on time today, and that they should not come early, let alone late. ”

"These idiots, someone else is so obedient when they give a letter? Raising it in the Qin family is also a scourge. The old lady squinted her eyes slightly, the corners of her mouth drooped, and the old lady at this time had a trace of kindness, which looked chilling.

"It's no wonder they, old lady, please look at this handwriting and payment, how can you look at the handwriting of our fourth master? Those children and aunts, how can they tell whether this is the handwriting of the fourth master? The old lady sighed, frowned, and said a fair word for those people.

The old lady placed a stack of envelopes on the table.

"Alas, it's all my fault, I was busy with business, busy fighting with those clansmen, and handed over the fourth child to the nurse, but I was damaged by the nurse's son."

The old lady said words of self-reproach, took the letter and looked at it, and her brows were even tighter.

"The fourth child will definitely not be so confused, this must be someone behind the scenes." The old lady's eyes became sharp: "The Qin family seems to have encountered hard stubble." ”

"The old lady asked Qin Xun to come over, but she suspects that she did it?" The old lady asked hesitantly.

"Well, I'm a little suspicious of her, and I want to see who this girl is who everyone is different? Still."

The old lady stood up and walked behind the screen, she was going to change her clothes, and the old lady immediately followed.

"However, I found that although she is smart and stubborn, she still lacks some scheming in the city, and this matter is either someone behind her to instruct her, or make ideas for her, or it has nothing to do with her."

"Not her?" The old lady helped the old lady change into a brocade robe, and said: "But I think about it, after all, I am just in time, and I am a little smart and normal, but if I talk about scheming and courage, I am afraid that it is very limited." ”

"I hope it's not us two old guys who have lost their eyes. After the luncheon, I will call the eldest brothers, but I want to see clearly, who is going to move my Qin family? ”

After changing her clothes, the old lady called the woman who combed her hair to come in and comb the old lady's hair, and the old lady put the incense beads given by Qin Shao on her wrist.

Mrs. Qin came to invite the old lady to the banquet hall, and there was another compliment.

"What are you doing when you send someone over and invite you?" For this daughter-in-law of the long house, the old lady still likes it very much.

"The daughter-in-law is not worried about others, she doesn't go on a trip in person, and she is not down-to-earth."

The eldest lady personally helped the old lady to go out, and when she saw the incense beads in the old lady's hand, she said: "The peony girl of the fourth brother's family is a filial piety, and the things she sent have also won the favor of the old lady, but she understands the old lady's mind better than these who have been raised under the nose of the old lady." ”

"You don't want to eat this idle vinegar, I have a reason to wear this thing." The old lady was unwilling to be false with her eldest daughter-in-law, so she directly broke her mind and gave her a reassurance: Your children are different after all.

"The fourth child's group of children came to the door, who do you say did this?" Without waiting for the eldest lady to be happy, the old lady asked again.

"This" The eldest lady glanced at the old lady's expression, and couldn't see any meaning, so she smiled and said, "Where can the daughter-in-law know?" Even the fourth child raised so many people outside, and the daughter-in-law only found out this morning. ”

"What are you anxious about, I didn't say it was you, besides, this matter is not good for you, and I don't think you will have so much to do."

The old lady frowned, and said in her heart that this eldest daughter-in-law used to be quite calm, but now why is it that the older she gets, the more useless she becomes?

Mrs. Qin pursed her lips, glanced at the old lady again, and said with a little doubt: "There are so many people in the fourth family at once, and the fourth brother and daughter-in-law are afraid that they are going to make a trouble." The old lady has to come forward to make arrangements. ”

"How do you say it's arranged?"

"The girls got married when they were old, and the underage girls and men all gave some silver taels and sent them back, saying that they recognized them, but when they were separated, they could come back to worship their elders during the New Year's Festival. It can not only appease them, but also not make the fourth room too unpresentable. What's more, so many people can't live there. ”

Actually, the last sentence is the point.

The four brothers of the Qin family have split up, but the rest of the brothers are not going out alone, they still live in the old house, and many things are mixed together, and they are all subsidized by the old family.

The courtyard of the four-room room is not big, but the people in the four-room are the most, and now that so many people are back, she must be the sister-in-law to arrange the residence at that time, so the eldest lady took the excuse to discuss with the old lady first.

"There's no urgency in this matter, I'll talk about it when I ask clearly." With a single sentence, the old lady ended all the plans of the eldest lady.

And Qin Xun and Xiao Chenyu just walked outside the door of the banquet and met Lu Jiu head-on.

Lu Jiu greeted him with some concern: "Why have you been there for so long?" But what happened? I should have gone with you before, so that I might have taken care of it. Anyway, my reputation for being unstingy has long been out, and I'm not afraid of being said. ”

Xiao Chenyu patted Lu Jiu's shoulder and said gratefully: "Brother Lu Jiu is worried, we are fine." ”

Lu Jiu slapped Xiao Chenyu's hand away, looked Xiao Chenyu up and down with both hands on his chest, and said quite smugly: "You are calling it wrong, I am not Brother Lu Jiu now, you should call me my eldest brother." ”

Qin Xun didn't have the heart to listen to their nonsense, so he walked past the two of them and walked inside, and Qing Cang and Qing Gu also followed.
