As soon as Qin Huaiyuan and his two younger brothers entered the main hall, they saw Sun hurriedly greeted him from inside.
"Master, is Sister Yi back? I went to the street today and heard people talking about it!"
Qin Huaiyuan smiled and nodded and said, "Holy Shang Hongen has arranged for Sister Yi and Wang Ye to live in Huangzhuang outside the capital."
Mrs Sun said: "But don't they come home? Sister Yi got married in June last year. I haven't seen her for almost a year. I really miss her. I don't know if she suffered in Tatar. The lord doesn't know if he still trusts and loves him like he used to."
Qin Huaiyuan saw that Mrs. Sun was already frowning worriedly, and smiled: "Don't worry, the prince and the courtier who is favored by the sage, how can they be people who like the new and hate the old? I think Sister Yi will be back soon. Home is here."
At this time, Mrs. Sun also heard that Qin Huaiyuan's tone was different from usual, and immediately became alert, then nodded stiffly and said, "Yes, what the lord said is. The sage is Mingjun, the prince is a loyal minister, Sister Yi My son is not an unvirtuous daughter-in-law, and it should be fine."
Qin Huaiyuan nodded, and the family went to the back to greet the old lady.
The old lady fell ill again a few days ago, and she is not in good spirits. In addition, she was too disappointed with Qin Huaiyuan. Now that she saw Qin Huaiyuan, she didn't have a good face. Instead, she loved her second son instead.
A few people saluted, and the old lady said, "I'm back. Brother Xiu, come and sit with my mother, it's warm."
The second master smiled and nodded, then sat in front of the old lady. The second lady also brought hot tea to several people by herself.
The old lady didn't even look at the eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law, and the third master even looked down on him. He pulled the second master to chat hotly, and finally talked about the return of Prince Zhongshun to Beijing.
"I just heard what they said, is this true?"
The second master's expression was condensed.
Who is so talkative, to tell the old lady about the outside world
The old lady is not well now. The need to rest is one of them. The most important thing is that now Pang Xiao returned to the capital and was sent to Huangzhuang. People who didn’t know it said that the sage cared about his ministers, but those who knew it knew that it was house arrest in disguise. what to dispose of.
In that case, I don't know if it will tire the Qin family.
Therefore, there must be many pairs of eyes staring around the Qin family now.
The second master is very worried that the old lady will say something unpleasant, and it will cause trouble if it reaches the ears of the Holy One. When even looking for help, he looked at Qin Huaiyuan.
In the past, the elder brother was more experienced in dealing with such things, but now he can't think of how to deal with it.
Qin Huaiyuan received the second master's gaze and said, "It's serious for mother to rest in peace and recuperate. You can't get involved in external matters. It's just futile to ask."
Hearing the words, the old lady immediately said angrily: "Why, I don't even have the qualifications to ask? You took away my power in charge of general affairs, and now you still want me to be blind, deaf, dumb? You? Unfilial son!"
Qin Huaiyuan said helplessly: "Mom, calm down. Don't get angry, you will hurt your body carefully."
The old lady said: "If you say a few words less, I may live a few more years! Besides, I am talking to Brother Xiu, why are you interrupting?"
The old lady then said to the second master earnestly: "There are many kinds of rumors out there, all of them say that the shaman of Pang Zhixi has lived up to the good intentions of the sage, and even surrendered to the Tatar because of a woman's treason. Now that he has come back, I don't know how the Holy Spirit will deal with it.
"Our family is unlucky, and we actually became in-laws with the Pang family. It was Sister Yi who didn't worry, and brought the disaster into the family. Now, looking at the attitude of the sage, the Pang family may be condemned. Fortunately, there is only one Yi in our family. My elder sister is married, I am a wise old man, there is no reason to give the eighth girl the surname Pang, or else a major incident will happen
"I mean, you all should be honest with me and distance yourself from the surname Pang, so don't let them get tired. Our Qin family has gone through so many ups and downs, and now it's easy to live a stable life. Now, don't make any mistakes in the family because of this incident, I can't stand it anymore."
The old lady was talking and shaking her head, as if the sky had forgone me but I was still very kind.
When Sun shi heard it, he was not angry. If this old lady wasn't Qin Huaiyuan's biological mother, she would have slapped her ears long ago!
Ingratitude, despicable and shameless to say is such a person!
Sun shi was too lazy to quarrel with the old woman, and felt that if the popularity died, it would not be worthy of infamy for her in the future. So I immediately got up and went out.
The old lady looked at Sun's back and sneered a few times, then spit, "I can't teach my daughter well, so now I'm going to put on airs with me."
The second master, the third master and the second lady were all very embarrassed by the side, especially seeing Qin Huaiyuan's face getting more and more ugly, the third master persuaded: "Big brother, don't take it to heart, my mother is old and a little confused. "
As soon as the old lady heard this, she smashed the pillow on the spot, "You are raised by a little woman, it's your turn to talk to me! Get out!"
The third master is a concubine, but when he was in the Dayan Dynasty in the early years, most of the expenses of the entire Qin family except Qin Huaiyuan and the second master's monthly salary were paid by the third house. The third master and the late third wife contributed a lot to the Qin family back then.
Now the old lady doesn't remember how good it was at the time, so she scolded people when she opened her mouth, and the third master couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and snorted coldly: "You said that others can't teach your daughter well, but I want to know what kind of person can teach you like this. Dimu, unkind, unkind, ungrateful! You never remember what others have given to you, and if you are a little bit inferior to your thoughts, you will turn your face and ignore anyone, and you are actually worthy of being the mistress of the family!"
"Reverse, reverse! Drive this evil barrier out of me!"
"I don't need to be rushed, I'm too lazy to look at you! Since you've been treating me as your son, I don't want to shave my head and be hot!"
The third master turned around and left, and when he reached the door, he said, "Big brother and second brother also saw it, it's not that I'm unreasonable, but the old lady is really hateful. You two are brothers, but you should be careful, don't call the old lady. The one you provoked left your heart. If our three brothers are not in harmony, the Qin family will be separated."
The old lady clutched her chest with one hand and pointed at the third master with the other, and couldn't help coughing.
The third master lifted the curtain and went out, and she spat fiercely.
At this time, apart from Mother Qin, only Qin Huaiyuan and the second master and his wife were left in the house.
Qin Huaiyuan said: "Mother is a smart person. She knows how to judge the situation, so I won't say much. If I want to come here, my mother knows all these things. My son will retire first."
Qin Huaiyuan stood up and saluted, then retreated.
The old lady turned her face away from Qin Huaiyuan. But out of the corner of his eyes, he kept looking at the figure when he left, and seeing that he didn't even look back once, he was even more angry.
In the end, he was the son she once liked the most, but now he has left his heart because of his wife and children, ignoring his efforts over the years.
The old lady came out of grief for a while, pulled the second master and started to cry: "My life is suffering! When I married into the Qin family, I didn't have a good life. Back then, your father..."
The second master had to listen so quietly, feeling very helpless, but whoever made the old lady be his own mother, when encountering such a thing, he couldn't beat him or scold him, he could only endure it.
When the second lady listened to the complaints of the old lady, the old sesame and rotten millet, her ears had grown calluses. She was too lazy to pay attention to the increasingly unreasonable old lady, and quietly withdrew.
Pulling up the curtains and going out, he saw Qin Huaiyuan standing under the porch with both hands.
The second lady sighed lightly and stepped forward, saying, "Uncle, don't be sad, my mother is really old and confused when she is in the Spring and Autumn Period. Sometimes she is confused, and what she said should be unintentional."
Qin Huaiyuan and the second lady met at the ceremony, kept a distance of three steps, and said, "What the younger brother and sister said. What the mother said, the sons and daughters who can't reach them can only listen."
The implication is that the second lady understands. Anyway, the decision of the family is not with the old lady, no matter what the old lady thinks, he just shuts the door and makes a fortune at home.
The second lady said worriedly, "Sister Yi has followed the prince to Huangzhuang by now, right?"
"Yeah." Qin Huaiyuan smiled at the second lady, and said, "Sage is kind and generous, our family will be reunited soon."
While chatting, Qin Huaiyuan actually opened his mouth and closed his mouth to be the sage's kindness.
At this time, whether it was Qin Huaiyuan, the second master, the third master, or the second lady and the Sun family, they all understood in their hearts. The in-laws are probably all under the eyes and ears of the saint now, and their every move will be transmitted to the ears of the saint.
They were still like this at home, let alone the Pang Xiao family who had just returned to Beijing
I don't know what kind of nets were set up in Huangzhuang. I thought Qin Yining and Pang Xiao were closely monitored at this time, and there was no freedom at all.
It would be fine if they were being watched. The most important thing was that none of them knew what the Holy Master wanted to do next.
The entire Qin family looked as usual, just living a noisy life.
Qin Huaiyuan didn't sleep well all night. At this juncture, he did not dare to tip off with his in-laws. I only hope that my in-laws are all smart people, so that I don't suddenly appear as a hostage to threaten Pang Xiao.
When it was time for the court meeting the next day, Qin Huaiyuan and the second master went out early and walked all the way to the palace.
The official sedan they were riding in had just arrived in front of the palace gate, but was blocked by a line of Gyeonggi guards.
"Wait a moment, my lords. The carriage of Prince Zhongshun and Princess Zhongshun has arrived. Please come in later."
Qin Huaiyuan, who was sitting upright in the sedan, closed his eyes and rested his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes, pulled the sedan curtain and stood out.
After crossing the crowd in front of him, Qin Huaiyuan saw Pang Xiao's group of carriages and horses slowly parked not far away.
Pang Xiao first got off his horse neatly, then walked to the gorgeous carriage that was following closely behind him, raised the splendid warm curtain with his own hands, and carefully helped Qin Yining who was dressed up to get off the carriage.
Seeing that although her daughter had lost a lot of weight and her face was a little pale, but she was still safe and sound, Qin Huaiyuan finally let go, and could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
