Return of the Swallow

Chapter 17: Impressed

Views:

Ruilan has never felt so real as now that his life and death are completely in the hands of his master. Recalling the contempt of Qin Yining yesterday, her bowels of regret are turning green.

But the matter has come to this point, whether to die or live depends on the words of the master.

Rui Lan's nervous palms were sweating, and she raised her eyes to meet Qin Yining's calm eyes. She hurriedly lowered her brows, trying her best to show her deference.

Qin Yining blinked, smiled, and stepped aside. As such, it is not going to be pursued.

Rui Lan's dangling heart finally let go, grateful for Qin Yining's generosity, she kowtowed to the old lady, saluted all the masters, and withdrew with Qiu Lu.

Seeing all this, the second lady and the third lady couldn't help but smile, and they praised Qin Yining's way of doing things a little more.

If Qin Yining were to let Rui Lan fall, it would probably make those who want to defect to her worry a little bit more. After all, a person who had just helped her was let go in a blink of an eye, and it wasn't something that would make people feel comfortable.

Looking at today's events again, although the pieces are not satisfactory, looking at the old lady now, I feel very good. The second and third ladies are like mirrors in their hearts. The reason why the old lady can be so calm is because Qin Yining just said a few words.

She calmly scratched the old lady's itch just right, whether it was her deep scheming, or her extraordinary intelligence, or her own spirituality, this girl was not an ordinary character.

They thought Qin Yining was a "savage" before, but now it seems that they are shallow.

Although this girl looks soft and weak, she is really brave and resourceful. So smart and polite, full of spirituality, it is much better than a woman who is full of knowledge but can't do anything.

For example, these women from a prominent family with hairpins, their greatest use in the future is nothing but marriage.

If you are only full of knowledge, but do not know how to advance or retreat, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the husband's family.

Besides, it is virtue that a woman is incompetent, and most people in this dynasty would not require a woman to be knowledgeable, as long as she can recognize the account book when managing the central bank.

At present, it seems that Qin Yining has initially met these requirements.

Not only is she not weaker than other women, but she is stronger than them all. Not only has a bright mind, a prominent family background, a powerful mother family, but also a gorgeous appearance that ordinary women can't ask for.

Just talking about that last point is enough to make her future husband fascinated.

Isn't it just around the corner for such a girl to be favored by the old lady

After the second wife and third wife analyzed it like this, they couldn't help but admire Qin Yining, and their attitude towards her changed a bit.

The second lady asked Qin Yining whether her clothes were still warm.

The third wife even smiled and said, "I just got a good set of jasper head and face, and Sister Yi just came back to the house. The third aunt doesn't have any good greetings, so I will ask someone to send it to you later."

Qin Yining got up and saluted, smiled and said, "Thank you third aunt."

"Oh, good boy, it's your own family that is polite. You only go home. Let's move around more. If you have nothing to do, you can go to the third aunt to play. You can come to us if you have anything." The lady's hand said: "Isn't it, second sister-in-law?"

The second lady nodded very kindly and said, "What your third aunt said is."

Miss Qi showed a friendly smile to Qin Yining at the right time, expressing that she obeyed her mother's words and welcomed her very much.

For a time, the atmosphere in the house was unprecedentedly harmonious.

Qin Yining accompanies the elders obediently. She is very quiet and doesn't talk much, but because of her steadiness and her father-like appearance, people unconsciously value her a little more.

Qin Huining watched everything coldly, and the jealousy in her heart was like a flood bursting a dike.

Seeing with her own eyes that the attention and favor that belonged to her in the past has now become someone else's, and her face was so wounded that the murderer not only did not receive the punishment that she deserved, but was even admired.

When did she Qin Huining become a stepping stone for others to climb up!

But when all this came, she couldn't resist and was powerless to break free. She can only accept it obediently and accept it with a smile...

Qin Huining is wronged, angry, jealous, and resentful to those who don't take her seriously. However, she can only hide all of this in her heart, and she can't show it, lest she lose everything she has now.

She lowered her head, gritted her teeth and trembled under her emotions, but she had to hold back.

At this moment, the maid Jixiang came in and saluted: "If you go back to the old lady, the madam is back, and the mother Bao, who is next to Mrs. Dingguo's wife, is with her, and she is asking to see you outside the door at this time."

The old lady was in a good mood, but when she heard the words "eldest lady", she became worse again.

The eldest daughter-in-law is arrogant and domineering and can't give birth to a son. She can't look down on it, but Qin Huai is far ahead of the court affairs and needs to rely on the Dingguo Gongfu.

The old lady knows that the help of in-laws is very important to Qin Huaiyuan, and she can also see that although the Sun family is arrogant and domineering, she does not have much bad intentions, and she, as a mother-in-law, turns a blind eye to many things Just close one eye.

But this time, Mrs. Sun suddenly went back to her mother's house, and after arguing with Qin Huaiyuan, she said she would leave. This kind of woman really had to be blamed.

She is a mother-in-law. If she is blindly regressed because of the strength of her daughter-in-law's mother's family, not to mention that others will look down on her, even the remaining two daughters-in-law and the clan's daughters-in-law of the family will say this when they know it. Everyone is a soft persimmon.

How will she stand up in the future? Wouldn't everyone be able to follow suit

The old lady lowered her face, waved her hand and said, "You all go." She looked like she was going to break up with Sun.

The second wife and the third wife did not want to go into the muddy water, so they each withdrew their daughters from each room.

Qin Yining also intends to leave. But the old lady thought about it and said, "Lujuan, take Sister Yi and Sister Hui to the interior to get the medicine first."

"Yes." Mother Qin nodded clearly.

It seems that the old lady is planning to let the girl meet Bao's mother in Dingguo's mansion.

This mother Bao is the escort of Mrs. Dingguo's wife, and she is deeply trusted. Mrs. Dingguo specially arranged for her to come, and I am afraid that she has to explain or apologize. Moreover, telling some things to Mother Bao is equivalent to telling Mrs. Dingguo that yesterday's incident involved two girls, so it is better to make it clear in front of Mother Bao, lest things will become more complicated under suspicion.

Qin mama took Qin Yining and Qin Huining to the inner room.

There is only a floor-to-ceiling cover between here and the side where the old lady is. There are various exquisite decorations on the Bogu shelf. There is also a pot of green chrysanthemums in the corner. Green makes the whole room look fresh and bright.

Qin Yining and Qin Huining sat down on the Luohan bed covered with a light green brocade mattress across a small table, and Qin mama took the ointment to serve the two of them.

On the side, the eldest maid Jixiang and Mrs. Jin, Caiju and Cailan, who were beside the Sun family, had already served the Sun family and entered the door.

The old lady sat in the first place, no different from usual.

But Sun's face was embarrassed, and he saluted: "Old lady, my daughter-in-law is back."

The old lady's expression was indifferent. Although she didn't scold anyone, she expressed her anger very clearly.

Sun Shi was embarrassed and thought to himself: This old guy has shamed me in front of my parents' family!

But even if she didn't like it, she didn't dare to disobey her mother-in-law, and the words of her biological mother were still in her ears, so she didn't dare not to obey, so she could only bite the bullet and say: "Old lady, don't be angry, it was because I learned yesterday. My mother was not in good health because she was too anxious, so she hurriedly returned to the Dingguo Gongfu without returning to the old lady. For the sake of your daughter-in-law's filial piety, please forgive me."

After Sun Shi finished speaking, his face was already hot.

She has always been noble, why has she ever bowed her head like this

Knowing that what she said was a lie, the old lady couldn't do anything to her because of her humble attitude. It was not easy to publicize what happened yesterday. Qin Huaiyuan had already ordered that it should be resolved as soon as possible. The big things should be reduced to small ones. If she continued to hold on and shouted things out, the old lady was afraid that she would delay her beloved son.

What's more, it is rare for the Sun family to be like this. In the future, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have to get along with each other, and in front of the mother, these respects still have to be given to the Sun family.

The old lady said: "Forget it, get up quickly. Is my mother in good health now?"

"It's much better." Sun sighed in relief, smiled and went to refill the old lady's tea bowl.

And Bao's mother gave a big gift to the old lady.

The old lady's smile became very enthusiastic. She still sat cross-legged on the Arhat bed, and leaned over to help her with one hand: "Get up quickly, I haven't seen Mommy Bao for a long time, please sit down. Good luck, serve tea."

Bao's mother even claimed that she did not dare, and sat sideways on the Jin Tu, and politely took the white porcelain cover bowl brought by Jixiang, and greeted the old lady's body with a smile.

The old lady and Bao's mother had a very friendly chat with each other, and finally the matter came to the fourth young lady who had just returned to the residence.

"Old lady, our wife is overjoyed to learn that Master Xiang has found the pearl of the sea, which has been lost for many years. This time, I instructed my servant to follow my aunt to come to the house. One is for my aunt's business. Please bear with me. The slaves brought some high-quality medicinal herbs and a few pieces of satin that the emperor had just rewarded, which is some of our lady's wishes. The most important thing is that the lady wants the slaves to see the lady, make an appointment, and want to invite the lady. Go back to Dingguo Gongfu."

When the old lady listened to Bao's mother's words, she didn't even bother to worry about it. In addition to apologizing and bringing gifts, she has no reason not to let people from her grandfather's family see the child.

"My mother is too polite. The whole family is close relatives. Why is this so? I also asked Bao's mother to go back and thank Mrs. Dingguo on behalf of the old man. It's just that the girl is in the back room now." Please come out.

Mother Bao hurriedly stood up, smiled and looked in the direction of the inner room, her eyes full of curiosity and caution.
