"Four, four girls, why are you here, really, really rare." Bi Tong's hands and feet were cold at this time, her mind seemed to be filled with lead, she couldn't think anymore, one hand subconsciously pressed her bulging arms, her eyes dodged .
Qin Yining turned a blind eye and said with a smile: "I went out to inspect the industry today, and I happened to pass by here. I know that Miss Bitong lives here, so I came to visit Aunt He. Your girls gave you a vacation today, so you can go home and see?"
Bitong's family name was He, and her name was He Erya before entering the mansion.
"Yes, yes." Bitong felt that her brain was finally starting to work, and she smiled witly: "Our girl rewarded me with a little money. I knew the family was nervous and sent it home specially."
"Miss Bitong is really filial." Qin Yining smiled and said to Aunt He, "Aunt He is very lucky."
"Whatever girl Zhudong said, it's not all that the mansion is willing to promote her. Erya is young, and she expects to teach her more."
Aunt He was in her 60s and her temples were gray. After hearing Qin Yining's compliment, she felt honored and smiled a few times with her face full of wrinkles.
Qin Yining smiled, then stood up and said, "Miss Bitong works hard in the mansion on weekdays, and it's rare to come out on vacation once. You mother and daughter must have something to say about themselves, so I won't bother you any more. Leave."
Shopkeeper Zhong Da was startled, and immediately took out a piece of silver from his sleeve pocket and put it on the table with a smile, "This is a gift from the girl, and it is also a grace from the Qin family."
The silver was white with frost, and seeing that there were three or four taels, Aunt He hurriedly knelt down and gave thanks.
Bi Tong was also stunned, and then kowtowed.
Did she scare herself
Are the four girls really just passing by to see
Yes.
She just returned to the mansion, and she wanted to create a virtuous name for herself.
Qin Yining had already helped Aunt He to get up, and after a few polite words, she called the shopkeeper Zhong to take someone to say goodbye.
Bi Tong stood blankly on the spot, watching people go out, and then let go of her hanging heart.
"Phew! It really scared me to death." Bi Tong sighed while patting his chest.
At this time, Aunt He had sent the person out and turned back. With a smile, he picked up the silver on the table and looked at it, biting it with his teeth.
"This girl is the newly-recognized daughter-in-law of Grand Master, isn't she? She is really kind, and she was rewarded with so much money all at once."
Bi Tong poured a bowl of water and gulped it down, thinking of Qin Yining's gracious face just now, not only laughed and said:
"Mother, don't be deceived by her superficial skills. She beat me up before, and now the bruises on her body have not subsided. She just went home and wants to gain a reputation for being virtuous."
"Really? I don't think she looks like that." Aunt He said with concern: "How are you hurt? Are you still serving at Fourth Young Lady?"
"I'm fine. Now the fourth girl is an adopted daughter and has changed her name to girl Huining. I'm still the most capable person by her side. No, today I came here to send things to my house on purpose, and girl Huining gave me a lot of jewelry."
As Bi Tong said, he took out something, and took out a hanging pearl, agate ring, gold earrings and other objects from his arms.
"Mother, please keep it for me. Don't tell my sister-in-law to yell at my nephew when she sees it. You should leave a way out for your daughter, right? You were poor and sold me for so many years. With the money I take home to pay, I will come out and start a family in the future, and my mother will think more about me anyway."
As soon as Aunt He saw the treasures on the table, her eyes straightened, and she shouted: "Oh my God! My Bodhisattva! Miss Huining is really generous, really..."
Before he could finish speaking, the door of the house was pushed open with a creak.
Bi Tong was startled, for fear that her brother and sister-in-law had returned, but before she could cover it up, she froze completely when she saw who was coming.
Qin Yining stood at the door with a smile, "Aunt He, I just ordered someone to go to the rice shop to buy you a bag of rice, and someone will bring it later, so I'll let you know." Seeing the jewelry on the table, Qin Yining glanced at the jewelry on the table. Just a change of face.
"Bi Tong, where did you get these things?"
"This, four girls, this is what our girls rewarded me." Bi Tong smiled stiffly.
Qin Yining hurried to the door, picked up the jasper hairpin with the begonia flower, and said with a sneer, "This is one of the jasper heads and faces that the third aunt gave me."
He picked up the pearl and agate ring again: "This is just given to me by Mrs. Cai, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy today."
Picking up the pure gold rose earrings: "This is what Wang Yushi's wife gave me today."
Finally, he turned around and pointed at the drop-shaped jasper earring: "This is what Mrs. Zuodu Censor gave me today."
"Bi Tong, how do you explain?"
Bi Tong's head was buzzing, and her legs flopped softly and knelt on the ground. Recalling the appearance of Qiu Lu in the warehouse today, I felt chills in my heart, and cold sweat covered my forehead and dripped down my chin.
Counted! She's hit! !
Qiu Lu's hoof actually harmed her!
No, no, not just Qiu Lu.
Bi Tong suddenly raised her head to look at Qin Yining, her heart was already half cold.
Perhaps, from an earlier time, when those gifts were delivered, Qin Yining had already set up a set just waiting for her to drill!
At that time, she was next to Miss Huining, and she only glanced at Miss Fourth when she opened the gift list!
How can you remember who sent which things by just looking at them? !
Also, how could she figure out that Miss Hui Ning would leave her to follow Qiu Lu
She originally thought that this man was a powerful savage, but she never expected that she would be able to remember her, and she had such a deep scheming that she could have been counted in long ago!
Not only did she want to take her down, she also mocked her in front of the ancestral hall.
By the way, Rui Lan was indirectly forced to leave the house...
Unexpectedly, this person would put her to death quietly!
Bi Tong's eyes were dark, and he almost fainted!
Aunt He said in a panic, "Miss Zhudong, you, have you read it wrong? Erya said that these were given to her by Miss Huining. Do you think there is a misunderstanding?"
"Bold!" Zhong Da's shopkeeper Hong Zhong said, making Aunt He tremble.
"How could the girl frame your daughter because of such a little thing? Since those things can be explained, the gift list and gift box are naturally still in the house. If you think our girl has wronged your daughter, we can go to the gift giver one by one. Confront!"
The shopkeeper Zhong Da immediately said contemptuously: "My girl is very kind, and the person who came to visit the door to give money and food has already given you enough face. I never thought that you would actually take revenge for your kindness!"
Aunt He cried out loudly, just begging for mercy.
Qin Yining frowned, turned around and walked out.
Storekeeper Zhong Da hurriedly put away all the jewelry and followed him out, "Girl, your stuff."
Qin Yining took the jewelry, lowered her eyes and said, "This matter is just as I said before, and I will leave it to you to deal with it. There is only one thing, it will not harm the family, and it is not allowed to hurt people's lives."
The shopkeeper Zhong Da froze upon hearing this, and hurriedly lowered his head, he should have gained a new level of understanding of Qin Yining's ability to penetrate people's hearts.
"Where is the girl going now?"
"I'm going to see Ruilan and Miss Tang."
"Yes, the villain ordered someone to escort the girl." The shopkeeper Zhong Da respectfully saluted and sent the servant and the nurse to escort Qin Yining back to the Tayun Inn.
The shopkeeper Zhong Da entered the room and said to Bi Tong, "Do you want to die, or do you want to live?"
Bi Tong raised her head with a pale face, and said with trembling lips, "Please show me the way."
…
Tayun Inn is not far from the market, and it only takes a few moments to arrive by horse-drawn carriage.
Qin Yining was escorted into the door by the servant of the shopkeeper Zhong Da, and went straight to a side courtyard at the back.
Just as he stepped on the steps of the main house, the khaki cotton cloth and bamboo warm curtain were lifted, and the ruddy little Taoist nun in a Taoist robe suddenly rushed out.
"Girl, you are here!"
Looking at the little Taoist nun's round apple face, big round eyes and cute appearance, Qin Yining couldn't help but patted her head: "Yes, how's Meng'er doing these days?"
"Don't worry, girl, I'm doing well, and the shopkeeper Zhong Da takes great care of me. By the way." Tang Meng took Qin Yining's hand and walked into the house: "Sister Ruilan's injury has been cured by me. It's eight, and now the wound has scabbed over."
After entering the door and entering the inner room, Ruilan wearing a white t-shirt went down to the ground, and those who were slow to move were going to salute Qin Yining.
"girl."
"Get up quickly, carefully open the wound." Qin Yining hurriedly supported her with both hands and carefully helped her lie down. Looking at her slightly pale face, she sighed, "You are suffering. It is I who have tired you."
"What did the girl say?" Rui Lan half propped up her body and said eagerly: "Girl, although we have known each other for a short time, we have had misunderstandings, but I have long wanted to understand, no matter which master we are with, It's all a life of prosperity and loss. If this incident followed other people, I'm afraid I would have been beaten to death. The girl can save my life and give me ginseng and cinnamon to heal my wounds. I understand in my heart. Kind man, you have saved the slaves and slaves for the great kindness, and the slaves will not be able to repay them in this life."
Rui Lan said and kowtowed to Qin Yining on the couch: "In the past, the slave servant was ignorant and did something wrong. The girl ignored the past suspicions, but the slave servant felt ashamed, and only hoped that she would be able to serve the girl for a long time in the future. To repay your grace."
"Alright, alright, I already know." Qin Yining held her up to keep her from kowtowing, "The past is over, and our misunderstandings are not worth taking to heart. I will definitely repay you for your grievances. Fair."
Rui Lan cried and laughed, wiping her face and said, "The servant knows that the girl will definitely support the servant."
Qin Yining sat down with a sigh, and took out the jewelry from his arms. Except for the Begonia flower and jasper hairpin given by the third aunt, the rest were handed over to Tang Meng.
"These are yours."
Tang Meng looked at those things strangely and said, "Girl, what does this mean?"
"Today my father was hosting a banquet in the mansion, and I received many gifts, all of which were given by Qingliu civil servants. I understand in my heart that these things were given to me on the surface, but they were actually given to you by my hand. There are also some medicinal materials, the four treasures of the study, the ruler and other items, which are also sent by the Qingliu. When you enter the house, I will give them to you. Menger, you take these well, you have your own money anyway, so you won't be two Eyes darkened."
