Qin Yining, the old lady, and the Sun family were on the way to the palace gate on their way to change carriages by taking the oil wall carriage in the palace.
Qin Yining still covered her face and whimpered, and said something: "I don't want to marry Deng Tuzi. If you promise me to this person, I will throw myself into the river and jump into the river..." Although the voice was not loud, the inner supervisor who was driving the car outside would definitely listen. clearly.
The old lady and the old monk usually do not say a word when they enter the meditation.
Hearing this, Mrs Sun wished she could cover Qin Yining's mouth. She had already scolded this dead girl thousands of times in her heart. She was just like this in front of the royal family, and she was like this even after she came out. He wanted to teach a few words, but because he was still in the palace, there was an internal supervisor outside the carriage, so he couldn't move.
It was not until they reached the gate of the palace that the three of them changed into the Zhu Lunhua covered car that they had come in, and the loyal servants of the Qin family drove the car away from the palace, and Qin Yining finally stopped crying.
Mr. Sun couldn't hold back his temper any longer, and scolded violently: "You ignorant dead hoof! It's like a Monkey King in the mansion, if you give you a stick, you can overturn the house! Why are people talking about you outside? Just a few words, you dare to cry in front of the royal family, if the emperor or the queen is to blame, who can afford it? Are you trying to harm our family or something!"
Qin Yining hurriedly smiled and grabbed Sun's arm and let her sit down. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother, listen to your daughter's explanation."
"You explain shit! I've already cried, if the emperor wants to blame, maybe he'll already hold grudges at this moment! What's the use of your explanation! I don't think your father should come back to you, the family used to be peaceful days. , it's a mess that was mixed up by you!"
Qin Yining was still smiling, but the smile in his eyes gradually faded away.
Although he knew about Sun's temperament and didn't want to care about it, he was often hurt by Sun's accidental words.
It's just that Mrs Sun is her mother and she doesn't protect her. Could it be that she is being reprimanded by her mother-in-law
Qin Yining widened the smile on the corner of his mouth a little bit and said, "Mother don't be angry, listen to me, I just cried like that on purpose, originally I was the one who was molested by Deng Shizi, if I didn't take the opportunity to cry After all, I am afraid that the emperor will issue a decree on the spot and promise me to the Cao family."
Sun shi was stunned for a moment, and his arrogance immediately subsided.
She was just angry that Qin Yining was crying in front of the royal family, but she didn't want Qin Yining to marry such a disciple.
Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't make sense for him to reprimand his daughter. Is it okay for Qin Yining to wait for the emperor to marry him without crying or making trouble
When Mr. Sun thought about it, he coughed twice in embarrassment, in exchange for a dissatisfied white eye from the old lady.
Qin Yining continued to explain: "I'm not being picky about marriage, but now I don't know what my father means, so how can I deal with things in a confused way?"
Qin Yining's heart is like a mirror, her marriage must be a marriage, and the object of the marriage must be someone who will help Qin Huaiyuan. She had already thought of this level when she promised to come back to Qin's house.
In the world of women's marriage, who is not the matchmaker's words for parents? Her father chose to say that the object of his kiss was someone who was helpful in his career, but for her, it was no different. It's not the same who you marry anyway
By this time, Mrs. Sun had completely recollected her thoughts. She never imagined that Qin Yining had already thought so much when she was only worried about it!
Wei Dao's mother said that Qin Yining had a good understanding of things and wanted her to ask Qin Yining's opinion more. Thinking about it carefully, last time she listened to Qin Yining's words and took the initiative to go to the old lady to soften up. Qin Huaiyuan not only did not reprimand her, but also made peace with her. Wake up, this time Qin Yining met the emperor and was able to act with such a clear mind.
Sun shi smiled with satisfaction and nodded Qin Yining's forehead, but because she scolded people too hard just now, and felt a little remorse, she felt that it was unreasonable for a mother to apologize to her daughter.
"Yesterday your uncle asked someone to give your grandmother the furs of two white foxes, and your grandmother sent them to you, saying that they were used as fur collars when making big clothes for you. Tachibana will send it to you."
Qin Yining knew that when Sun said this, he was showing his favor, and he didn't care about Sun's words just now, and he didn't care that the fox fur was not given to her alone. ."
Seeing that Qin Yining was smiling as usual, Mrs Sun liked it in her heart.
The old lady is used to seeing the mother and daughter like this these days, and she has become accustomed to it, but she feels more pity for Qin Yining in her heart.
She wanted to reprimand Sun for a few words, but Qin Yining smiled and held hands with Sun to talk. Now the atmosphere is so good, the old lady couldn't open her mouth.
The carriage returned to Qin Mansion all the way, and as soon as it stopped in front of the mansion gate, a few servants greeted it.
Qin Huaiyuan's long follower Qitai saluted and said, "The old lady, the eldest lady, and the fourth lady are back! The grand master was thinking of you all, and specially ordered the villain to wait here, and the villain will be here. Go back to the words of Grand Master."
The old lady helped Qin Yining and Mrs Sun's hand out of the car, and said with a smile, "Tell your master to talk to Cixiaoyuan, and say I have something important to tell him."
Qi Tai bowed as he should, waiting for the old lady, Mrs Sun and Qin Yining to get on the small sedan chair, and then went to the study in the outer courtyard to answer.
The group returned to Xingning Garden, and just after taking off the cloak and sitting down to take a sip of hot tea, Qin Huaiyuan hurried over.
Seeing Qin Huaiyuan entering the door, Qin Yining and Mrs Sun hurriedly stood up and saluted.
Qin Huaiyuan waved his hand and carefully looked at the faces of the three of them. Seeing that there was nothing out of the ordinary, he felt a little relieved.
Qin Yining thought that the old lady must be discussing the matter in the palace with Qin Huaiyuan, so she took the Sun's arm and said, "Didn't my mother say that there are fox skins for me? The pine nuts and sweet-scented osmanthus candies are gone, I will follow my mother to Xingning Garden, and ask someone to bring my food box over there, shall we have lunch together?"
When Qin Yining asked "How are you?", her voice was soft and glutinous, and it made people unable to bear to refuse.
Naturally, Mrs. Sun liked her daughter to be close to him, and she also wanted to make up for the wrong person she had just scolded, so she nodded with a smile, and turned to the old lady and Qin Huaiyuan to salute: "We will leave first."
The old lady nodded with a smile.
Watching the servants serve Sun and Qin Yining put on the cloak and went out. The old lady lowered her face and said to Qin Huai, "Thanks to Sister Yi's adaptability today, otherwise things would be unimaginable."
Qin Huaiyuan sat beside the old lady and frowned, "What happened?"
The old lady explained to Qin Huaiyuan the process of entering the palace today, what everyone looked like, and what they said.
Finally, he said: "If sister Yi hadn't started crying on the spot, clamoring to become a monk or marry, I'm afraid the emperor and the queen would have ordered the marriage on the spot. I think the Cao family is simply uneasy and kind. And I always feel that this matter It's not over yet. The queen clearly has a grudge on our family and wants to use Sister Yi."
Qin Huai said, "I understand this matter. The emperor only favors the queen. Hearing the queen's pillow-side wind is also a little bit, but why did the emperor find out like this..."
Qin Huaiyuan rubbed his fingers on the smooth tabletop, pondered for a moment, and then understood in his heart: "I'm afraid it's because I became the prince and the master." But why did the emperor suddenly do this? Was it planned for a long time, or was it temporary
"Oh?" The old lady didn't know much about matters in the imperial court, so she asked, "What's wrong with you becoming the prince's teacher? Is it worth the emperor's actions?"
Qin Huaiyuan understood this in his heart, but he didn't want to tell his mother about these messes. It would only upset the old lady. It would not be good if she got sick from boredom, so she gave the old lady a light smile. You brought a bowl of tea.
"Don't worry about it, mother. Your son knows these things in his heart, and he can handle them well. If you just help your son take care of the inner house, you will be grateful to your son."
The old lady laughed: "You child, what is the family saying." She was really distracted, and she talked to Qin Huaiyuan about some things to prepare for the New Year.
Qin Huaiyuan patiently accompanies the old lady to plan household topics such as how to spend the new year and how to arrange it later, and also accompanies the old lady to lunch.
After rinsing her mouth, Mother Qin came in with a smile, took the warm handkerchief from Qin Huaiyuan who was about to wipe the old lady's hands, and joked with a smile, "The old lady is in such a good mood today, but Because the Grand Master serves you better? Has the old slave been compared?"
While speaking, from the angle that the old lady could not see, Qin mama gave Qin Huaiyuan a wink.
Qin Huaiyuan immediately realized that something was going on outside.
The old lady laughed: "Lujuan, how old are you, you are still compared with Meng Ge'er."
Qin Huaiyuan said with a smile: "I can't compare with Mother Qin. Mother Qin did her best to serve her mother, and she has been loyal all her life. I am the son, busy outside, and know that my mother is living well at home. , and my heart can be at ease.”
"I don't dare to be an old slave. It is the duty of an old slave to serve the old lady." Qin mama turned around to salute Qin Huaiyuan, but quietly gestured to him, and said silently, "The prince is here." .
Qin Huaiyuan nodded with the same smile, and said, "Mother, take a nap in the afternoon. My son has something to do outside, so he will go first."
"Go ahead, it's been a long time for you." The son is a powerful official in the court, so he must have a lot of things to deal with. If he can spare time to accompany her, an old lady, to talk about the arrangements for the New Year, and to accompany her to lunch, she has already Very satisfied.
Qin Huaiyuan respectfully saluted the old lady, and then retreated.
After exiting the door of Cixiaoyuan, the long attendant Qitai quickly walked over and whispered: "Master, the prince is here, he is wearing casual clothes, and he doesn't bring his entourage. It seems that the prince is quietly coming by himself Yes, the villain didn't dare to show it, so he arranged people to have tea in the study."
"Yeah." Qin Huaiyuan responded, thinking to himself that perhaps the prince came in a hurry and could solve the doubts in his heart.
There was no sign before, and he did not understand why the emperor suddenly wanted to arrange his daughter to be a wife from the Cao family. What good would it be for the emperor to tie the Qin family and the Cao family together.
