There was dead silence in the side hall, the air seemed to freeze due to the old lady's displeasure.
Qin Yining, who was kneeling on the carpet of splendid flowers, raised her eyes to look at the old lady, and said slowly, "It was my adoptive mother who told me to hide when she was dying. Saying that if I was sold like this, it would be over if I was sold for a lifetime. After eating it, it came out clean."
In a word, it contains how much helplessness and hardship.
It was originally the golden branch of the prime minister's residence, but was lost in the wild after being exchanged by gangsters when he was born. After a long time, he met a kind-hearted adoptive mother and went away early. He became an orphan at the age of eight. To survive, to taste the hot and cold world of life, but survived strong, until now, at the age of fourteen, he was found by his biological father.
How can such a girl not be pitiful
If it was them, could they survive alone in the wilderness for six years at the age of eight
None of the people present had such confidence.
Even for six days, they couldn't bear it.
Not to mention the issue of what to eat and what to live in, that is to live alone, no one to take care of you when you are sick, no one to care about the cold and heat, and loneliness without even a single person to talk to.
After all, people's hearts are made of meat, and many of the people present looked at Qin Yining with pity and tenderness.
"You... it's too hard for you." The old lady sighed in her heart, and the sharpness just now became a little weaker.
Qin Huining saw that the old lady was moved with sympathy, and she couldn't help clenching her fists tightly. Four pale crescents were cut out by her nails, almost bleeding, but her delicate face was even more pitiful, and she was crying. Tears welled up in the swollen almond eyes.
Three or two steps forward, Qin Yining supported Qin Yining with both hands, Qin Huining's thin white jade hand rubbed Qin Yining's rough and calloused hand, and said with pity: "Sister Xiaoxi, you are suffering."
A small stream is equivalent to agreeing with the fact that the old lady does not recognize Qin Yining.
Everyone is a human being, how can they not understand? Some of the girls bowed their heads and did not look at them, and some whispered.
Qin Huining's hand felt clammy and cold, which reminded Qin Yining of the cold snakeskin for no reason. She blinked and drew her hand back.
Since she entered the door, the hostility of the person in front of her was most obvious. It seemed that she was the adopted daughter of unknown origin whose identity was reversed. When she came back, she took this person's position.
Qin Yining, who lives in the wild, is almost born with the ability to perceive hostility, otherwise she will not be left with the dregs that have long been eaten by wild animals. Although she hides in the deep mountains, she is not completely incapable of going down the mountain. She will collect herbs, hunt and go down the mountain in exchange for some necessary materials for life, which is indispensable to contact with merchants or hunters. I am afraid that the understanding of human nature is more thorough than these noble people.
Because in the war-torn era, in order to survive, she had seen all the nasty and dark things.
Qin Huining's pretended gentleness and genuine resistance made Qin Yining pursed her lips.
The second master, Qin Han, frowned in disapproval, stepped forward and saluted: "Old lady, if Sister Yi's nickname is Xiaoxi, that's why we don't forget her adoptive mother's eight-year upbringing, but The daughters of our Qin family are all composed of Ning characters. Jia Ning, Hui Ning, Shuang Ning, An Ning, Bao Ning, which one is not the case? Besides, the uncle has given Xiaoxi the boudoir name Yi Ning, the old lady is here If…”
"My words, now it's the younger generation's turn to take care of it? I'm too old to take care of this family!? Or do you want to be in charge of the Qin family, and you have the final say in changing the Qin family?"
Although Qin Han is the eldest son of the third house, the third master is a concubine. The old lady doesn't like the concubine, and naturally doesn't like Qin Han much. He usually takes Qin Han's decency into consideration. Not so much.
The second grandmother, Mrs. Meng, stepped forward and pulled Qin Han's sleeve, reminding her husband not to touch the old lady's bad head in person.
Qin Han is a chivalrous person at heart, and his stubborn temper is also resisted by the unreasonable remarks of the old lady, "Even though Sister Yi grew up in the countryside, she is the uncle's biological daughter after all, as long as she is not blind and foolish. You can tell at a glance, since no one questions her identity now, why does the old lady still talk like this?"
The old lady pouted and said angrily, "There are so many similar people in the world! Could it be that the ones who look like your uncle are all from our family!"
"Old lady, in fact, you also know in your heart that Sister Yi is the child of the uncle who was replaced by a political enemy. We didn't say that when Sister Yi came back, what was going to happen to Sister Hui, why are you nervous? A girl of unknown origin. You can take care of your granddaughter, why can't you take care of your granddaughter?"
A sentence of unknown origin, said Qin Huining's face flushed red, and then tears rolled down her fair and beautiful face, she choked and threw herself into the arms of the old lady, sobbing: "Grandmother, it's the granddaughter, isn't it, it's the granddaughter? it is good… "
The old lady's nose was sore from Qin Huining's crying, and then she burst into tears, patting Qin Huining's back, "Sister Hui, don't cry, there is a grandmother here, they dare not do anything to you!"
It was as if everyone else was going to drive Qin Huining away.
Everyone knows that the old lady is used to love like this, and they are very helpless.
The eldest grandmother, Mrs. Yao, came forward and persuaded him, "Uncle, anyway, take care of the old lady, and don't say a few words."
The second grandmother hurriedly pulled Qin Han's sleeve and motioned him not to talk too much, so as not to make people hate it.
But Qin Han didn't care, and still said loudly: "It would be too unfair to say that Sister Yi is not allowed to be called Yining. Sister Hui, you have nothing to worry about in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but what you enjoy belongs to Sister Yi. My son's blessing! It's time to speak for her now, how can you still carry a gun and a stick."
Qin Huining, who was named, looked up at Qin Han with a pale face.
Qin Han said: "Now the war is raging, the country is not a country, and there are ten rooms and nine empty rooms in Liangcheng, which is horrible! If you see it with your own eyes and experience it yourself, you can understand the difficulty of Sister Yi! I went out this time. It's cold for a while. I admire Sister Yi's tenacity. If you don't say anything else, if any of you have been there, the grass on the grave should be three feet tall! We have found the flesh and blood of our family. , I am happy to admit it, maybe I will die in two days, and my family will die in one place."
Qin Huining choked with red face and red ears: "I stole the life of sister Xiaoxi, and I can't live with her."
Qin Han pouted and rolled his eyes.
"Enough, second brother, you're the only one who talks a lot." Uncle Qin Yu waited for Qin Han to finish before he said something lukewarm.
The old lady put her arms around Qin Huining, and angrily pointed at Qin Han with her finger wearing an emerald ring, "You wicked obstacle, let me say something, but you are talking about this car to block my heart!"
"I know that the old lady is panicked when she sees me, I can't escape!"
"You better get away!"
Qin Han snorted, grabbed his daughter-in-law, turned around and left.
The old lady clapped the little girl beside her hand angrily, and shouted outside with a red face: "You bastard! bastard! Get out and don't come to see me!"
"Grandmother, calm down." Qin Huining choked and hurriedly persuaded: "Second cousin is outspoken, and he didn't say anything wrong. I'm not worthy of it."
When the old lady was told by her, she couldn't help but hugged her head and cried with Qin Huining. It made the other girls cry, and the room was in chaos for a while.
Qin Yining watched coldly, the brilliance in his eyes dimmed a little.
These new red and green people, surrounded by gold and jade, are like living in two worlds with her. It was obvious that the person was right in front of her, but it made her feel too far away.
If it is still peaceful and prosperous outside, she really wants to leave, and would rather live a life of hardship, and still have freedom.
But she is not reconciled! This is her home, she finally has relatives, do you really want to hand over everything that belongs to her
According to the second cousin, her biological mother is still there.
A mother must love her child, just like an adoptive mother. Not her biological mother would do her best to care for her. Even so, her biological mother must love her even more.
Qin Yining became a little anxious, looked back at Qin Huaiyuan, who frowned, and asked anxiously, "Father, where is my mother, why haven't I seen her?"
Qin Huining heard the words and looked back at Qin Yining.
Qin Huaiyuan gave a light "um", and then waved his hand to summon Jixiang: "Go and invite the eldest madam."
Auspicious promised to retreat.
Qin Yining stopped looking at the reaction of the old lady and the others, and just stared at the direction in front of the door. She knew that she was a picked child since she was a child, and she dreamed of what her mother was like in her dreams. Now that we are about to see it, those who have been tempered by years of hardship and have developed a calm heart will inevitably have sweaty palms.
After a while, there was a sound of mixed footsteps outside, and then a little girl replied from outside:
"Old lady, the first lady, the second lady, and the third lady are here."
When the warm curtain was picked up, a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing a light purple robe with a waist and a plain brocade, wearing a red gold crested head with eight treasures, rushed in first.
She stood beside the floor-to-ceiling bogu frame and looked around for a week, her eyes swollen into walnuts from crying suddenly fell on Qin Yining.
Qin Yining clenched her hands tightly and instinctively took two steps forward, also looking at this woman.
Their eyes met, and although no one told her, she just knew that this was her mother.
"You..." Mrs Sun walked towards Qin Yining slowly, her body seemed to weigh more than a thousand jin, she raised her hand tremblingly and touched Qin Yining's face.
Qin Yining finally had tears in her eyes, and murmured, "Mother." She raised her arms and took two steps forward involuntarily.
Suddenly, Mrs Sun covered her mouth and started crying, then she stepped back and shook her head and said, "Impossible, impossible. Over the years, I have not raised my children, how could this be!"
Seeing this, Qin Huining rushed up with red eyes, and fell into Sun's arms at once, crying: "Mother, it's your daughter who can't help you, she doesn't deserve your love, it's her daughter who takes the place of Sister Xiaoxi. , but, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it!"
