Chapter 266: The Xie Family
Qin Xun didn't agree, but said: "They are my personal maids, and I don't hide anything from them." ”
Mrs. Xie really didn't know what to do, and she was unceremoniously squeezed by a woman younger than her daughter-in-law, and she couldn't get out of this breath no matter what.
Fortunately, Grandma Xie walked out from behind the screen next to her, and she was just listening to the movement while making tea in the ear room next to her.
At this time, she gave the tea to Qin Xun first, and then to her mother-in-law, and then stood beside Mrs. Xie, and asked Qin Xun in a strange manner: "This aunt is not very old, this mouth is really powerful, it is rare for people like us to be seen." ”
She glanced at her mother-in-law, raised her hand to cover her lips and chuckled: "Mother, look, our daughter's house that grew up according to the rules like this is still a little boring; Sure enough, you still have to be born in the countryside, so it's interesting! ”
Mrs. Xie had a helper, and she suddenly regained her combat effectiveness, reached out and patted her daughter-in-law's hand, and said angrily: "The life of a person is fixed, you were born with fine clothes and jade food, and your identity is here, so naturally you can't do those rural things." ”
Grandma Xie nodded, and admitted her mistake quite obediently: "Mother-in-law is very right, people like ours have bigger rules than the sky, and there is no way to do it." ”
This means that Qin Coriander has no rules and upbringing, how can Qin Coriander not hear it?
She didn't interject, and she didn't have the slightest hint of annoyance, the two people in front of her were too familiar to Qin Xun.
For their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they usually deal with others with the same voice, such as Qin Xun in the previous life, as well as the second and third rooms.
But they are not also monolithic, after all, there is a man between the two of them who is the link, this person is the eldest young master of the Xie family, the eldest grandson of the Xie family.
The old lady of the Xie family is a character, but his private life is also chaotic, and he is getting older, so he is even more confused.
The eldest man of the Xie family's long house is a mediocre character, probably suppressed by his strong father for too long, so he is becoming more and more weak, not fighting, not grabbing, not talking, and a little tired of mundane things, there are always some days a year to live in the temple, for the family, but the responsibility is there, the father is here, he doesn't dare to get rid of it completely.
The master of the second room of the Xie family is even more squirrel, and he is simply a dou who can't be helped. He is not a woman, but he likes drama very much, spends a lot of money on drama, and says that he is clean and self-conscious, never provokes women indiscriminately, so that his wife can't find faults.
The Xie family's third room is a concubine, no matter how capable they are, they have nothing to do with the Xie family's family business.
Therefore, the third generation of the Xie family is particularly important, especially the eldest grandson Xie Haoran.
Xie Haoran was personally raised by the old lady of the Xie family, and he attached great importance to it, and he was cultivated as the future head of the Xie family.
And he has been with his grandfather since he was a child, and he has seen a lot of things that cannot be put on the table, so when he is only in his twenties, he has already learned to sell officials, of course, in fact, it is more than that, even the pickled affairs of the old lady of the Xie family have been handed over to him to deal with.
Therefore, Xie Haoran, the grandson of the Xie family, is now the rightful head of the Xie family, and his mother and wife can be so arrogant in the Xie family.
The eldest wife of the Xie family could not get the respect and love of the Xie family, so she devoted all her efforts to her son, and the son and his wife had a very good relationship, and they were always sweet and greasy, which made the eldest lady of the Xie family jealous and dissatisfied.
But Grandma Xie is a clever one, coaxing her husband's liking, and then turning back to coax her mother-in-law to be happy.
In short, these two people maintain a delicate balance, but it is almost difficult for outsiders to detect.
The reason why Qin Xun knew about the discord in their hearts was that in her previous life, after the daughters of the Xie family were imprisoned, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who loved each other scolded each other for a mouthful of multigrain cakes, until they fought.
When the pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had enough yin and yang weirdness, Qin Xun put down the teacup, chuckled, and stopped the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's words.
"What is the matter with you, please make it clear, I still have important things to do today, and I don't have much time to stay in Xie Mansion."
The eldest young grandmother walked to the circle chair directly opposite Qin Coriander and sat down, took out a silk handkerchief embroidered with white magnolia flowers and wiped the corners of her mouth, and then raised her eyelids to look at Qin Coward.
"I read the note that Mrs. Xiao gave to my mother-in-law, it stands to reason that for your slander against our family, we can directly report to the official to arrest you, but I think that after all, it is an in-law, although"
When she said this, she paused, made a surprised look, covered her cherry mouth with a silk handkerchief, and asked in surprise: "I forgot, Second Mrs. Xiao doesn't seem to be from the Qin family, as if you are just the outer maid of the Qin family, this is actually not our family's in-laws, right?" ”
"Go on!" Qin Xun only said lightly, and did not say much.
Grandma Xie raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Qin Xun quite interestingly.
After a long time, he said with a cold face: "My Xie family is in the capital, but I have never been slandered, I don't know where did Second Mrs. Xiao know about slandering my husband?" ”
The corners of Qin Xun's mouth were raised, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved, and a bright smile appeared on his delicate and beautiful face.
"Whether this is true or not, I have no way of knowing, let alone tell you where I heard it. However, you can think about it carefully, I am a woman and a child, and I have just come to the capital, where can I hear such news? ”
Grandma Xie's eyes flashed coldly, and she looked at her mother-in-law blankly.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was stupid, Mrs. Xie sneered coldly, but her face was not obvious, she glanced at her daughter-in-law soothingly, and then faced Qin Xun, and asked in a low voice: "But what did Lord Yaoxiang say?" ”
"This" Qin Xun pretended to hesitate, and his eyes turned around a few times, and then he said calmly: "No, don't speculate, Lord Yaoxiang is not such a casual gossip." ”
"Besides, we are not familiar with Lord Yaoxiang, so she invited us to live in Qifeng Villa for one night, watched singing and dancing together, drank tea and wine, and enjoyed flowers and fragrance."
"That's not enough?" Grandma Xie couldn't help but raise her voice, questioned loudly, received a slap from her mother-in-law, and hurriedly held her breath.
"When you celebrate the New Year, didn't you also give gifts and have a relationship?" The eldest wife of the Xie family just wants to talk about it today, to find out the relationship between Qin Xun and the Nine Princes' Mansion, and why she won Yao Xiang's favor, which is also what the men of the Xie family want to know.
Qin Xun deliberately made his relationship with Lord Yaoxiang ambiguous, the more like this, the more jealous and suspicious it became.
Moreover, if one day, Lord Yaoxiang knows about her today, she can't make a mistake.
In fact, others ignored that it was actually three people who were invited to the banquet by the lord of Yaoxiang County.
On the carriage back, Qin Xun silently looked at the street scene outside the window, on the bustling street, pedestrians had different looks, all busy and running for their own affairs.
"Say, why did man come into this world to go through such a journey?" She asked suddenly, inexplicably.
Qinggu and Qingqian glanced at each other, not knowing who the wife was asking? Or is it talking to yourself?
Qing Qian was more lively, blinked her eyes and said: "The slave maid thinks it's fun, this street is so lively, it's just that there are a lot of people, if there are no people, this street will be very deserted, it will be very boring." ”
Qin Xun was indeed talking to himself, but after listening to Qing Qian's words, he couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became happy.
