Don't think that your eldest brother is gone and forget about him. He is always watching over you all."
Now, all the children in the Qi family were confused by their father's words.
Has he still not accepted the fact that his elder brother is dead
I still feel like he's looking at us.
But they didn't dare express different opinions because their father was always very strict with them.
His prestige and authority do not allow them to have any opposing voices.
Then Lord Qi said, "His wife is your sister-in-law.
You must respect your eldest sister-in-law just as you respect your eldest brother, understand?"
At the same time, he glanced around with a very stern look.
The children had no choice but to nod in agreement.
No matter how unhappy you are, what can you do
Since the most authoritative father had spoken, they of course stopped arguing and reluctantly called her sister-in-law.
Bai Chen agreed to all of their requests and took out a few talisman papers folded into triangles from his purse.
"This is a lucky charm I got in the countryside. I don't have anything valuable, so consider this a gift."
The amulets in Bai Chen's hand were, of course, the ones he found out of the small box last night.
As for the efficacy, of course some changes have been made.
Also added a wish talisman and a calming talisman.
"You take this as a meeting gift?" Qi Zhuyu couldn't help but show contempt, "Who would care about your meeting gift
Just a few pieces of scrap paper, can that be a gift?"
"No, sorry!" Bai Chen looked extremely ashamed, and glanced at Qin cautiously, "You all know my origin, I can't produce anything valuable.
But in order to get this amulet, I knelt down from the doorstep of my home all the way to the temple to pray for it.
At that time, I only hoped that I could give this amulet to my husband as soon as possible, hoping that he would recover soon.
But, who would have thought? "
As Bai Chen spoke, he began to wipe his tears. Seeing that no one appreciated his kindness, he took the talisman paper back and put it back into his purse.
Qin hesitated for a moment, "Don't rush to put it back, this child is really thoughtful.
Otherwise, give me one."
Recently she has been suffering from insomnia and is in a bad mood. She feels tired during the day and cannot fall asleep for a long time at night. She feels very uncomfortable.
Since the child said that he prayed for it with many kowtows, maybe it will be of some use.
"Okay!" Bai Chen looked flattered. He opened his purse again, took out a piece of talisman paper and handed it to Qin with both hands.
“I heard from the master in the temple that this talisman must be placed on the chest for better effect.
Not only can it ward off evil spirits, but it can also soothe the mind and calm the spirit."
"Oh! Really?" Qin looked at the talisman again and again. If it was really useful, it would be great. There would be no harm in keeping such a thing on the body, so she decided to give it a try.
Hope I can have a good sleep tonight.
Bai Chen glanced at Qin's dark circles and of course understood that she had been feeling uneasy these days.
This is what happens to people who have done something wrong.
The person she harmed is now a god in heaven. How can she rest in peace
The others did not give Bai Chen any face and all looked down upon the few pieces of paper.
"Yes, mother-in-law, I have been on the road for fifteen days. I have been restless every day, feeling uneasy and unable to sleep at night.
The daughter-in-law originally planned to give all these amulets to the eldest son, so she was reluctant to use any of them herself.
It was not until the daughter-in-law knew that the eldest son had passed away that she dug it out from the bottom of the box.
Last night, my daughter-in-law used a talisman before going to bed. Unexpectedly, the effect was so good and she slept well until dawn.
This shows that this thing is very effective, so I brought it as a gift."
Hearing this, Qin's face was filled with smiles.
It means it works.
Now, for her, if she had to choose between giving her 10,000 taels of silver or letting her sleep soundly, she would definitely choose to sleep soundly.
After receiving the gift, Qin also began to pretend to wipe her tears, "Xuan'er, he really left too suddenly.
Every time I think of it, I feel sad. "
The second and third sons of the Qi family curled their lips at the same time. It seemed like their eldest brother was about to die at any moment, so how could he leave so suddenly
Qi Zhuyu couldn't bear it any longer and tugged at Qin's sleeve, "Mom, my brother is already ill and is suffering if he lives. You should relax."
"But, but, I just feel uncomfortable." As Qin spoke, she put her head on the shoulder of Lord Qi, looking like a little bird.
When Lord Qi saw this, his heart softened and he gently stroked Qin's hair to comfort her.
"So much time has passed, relax. I know you can't bear to let go, but you also know Xuan'er, he..." He stopped talking.
The fact that my eldest son is a fairy from heaven cannot be let anyone else know.
If this statement were to spread to the outside world and then reach the emperor's ears, it would very likely arouse his suspicion.
Even the immortals have entered your house, do you want to steal my throne
The children of the Qi family are used to seeing their parents show their affection, so they don't feel anything when they see such a scene.
However, the two concubines lowered their heads even more.
Recalling that when the master was still a young boy, they served him and made his bed with warm quilts, it was so cozy and warm.
But since the master married Qin, they rarely even had soup.
One of them did get to drink a mouthful of soup, but the taste and sourness of it were simply indescribable.
Then Qin finally brought the topic back to the point.
"I discussed it with your father. Your eldest sister-in-law became a widow after she got married. It's really pitiful.
Therefore, we plan to adopt one of your uncle's grandsons under your eldest brother's name."
Bai Chen smiled secretly in his heart, but on the surface he was already deeply moved by Qin, with tears in his eyes and choking for a while.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, for thinking so carefully about your daughter-in-law. Thank you, mother-in-law!"
By the end of the conversation, I was sobbing.
However, Bai Chen's crying was interrupted by the second son of the Qi family.
"Mom, what are you talking about
He's already dead, what's the point of adopting a child?"
The idea of adopting a son for his eldest brother really scared the second son of the Qin family.
Nowadays, the position of the crown prince still belongs to the eldest brother who has passed away.
Is it possible that my adopted son will compete with me for that position
"Don't be impatient!" Qin glanced at the children, "Your eldest brother has already passed away. After the seventh day of his death, he will give the title of Crown Prince to Hua'er.
Giving your elder brother an adopted child is just to give him more thoughts.
It will always be good to have more descendants who can pay tribute to him in the future."
Now both sons were silent. The second son had a happy look on his face, while the third son pursed his lips without a smile at all.
Bai Chen glanced at their expressions and could tell that they were not on good terms with each other.
Even if they are brothers, they are unwilling to give in when it comes to the fight for the title.
Since both are legitimate sons, the throne should be given to the older one, but there are exceptions where it is passed directly to the younger one who is more capable.
This is how the title of Marquis Qi came about. Because he was more capable than his other brothers, his father went against everyone's opinion and gave the title to the fourth brother.
In the eyes of the second son, since his eldest brother was dead, it was only right for him to get the title.
But in the eyes of the third son, he felt that he was better than his second brother in every way, including knowledge, courage, and appearance.
