"Father!" Qin Yining trotted as fast as he could, with the snow-white fox fur behind him forming a fan, and the hairpin on his head swaying, as light and cheerful as a swallow thrown into the forest.
Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing, and walked a few steps to greet him: "Slow down, slow down, they are all mothers, and they still look like children."
Qin Yining smiled, not even knowing that the front teeth were freezing cold, panting slightly, and a white mist was breathing in front of him.
"Father!" When he got to the front, he stood straight in the same position. He wanted to reach out to hug, but he couldn't move because of the etiquette, so Qin Yining knelt on the ground to give a big salute.
"Get up, get up quickly." Qin Huaiyuan hurriedly helped him up and wiped off the snow foam on Qin Yining's forehead with his sleeve, "What are you doing? We don't need those false gifts when we meet."
While talking, he helped Qin Yining brush the snow off his shoulders, but he didn't even realize that there was a layer of hoarfrost on his beard, "This year you've been out of the house, you've cleared up. But my father sees you in good spirits. , I can rest assured knowing that Zhixi has not treated you badly."
"What my daughter's letter says is true. I won't lie to you. Although it's chaotic outside, but the prince is standing by, it doesn't make me suffer."
"That's good. I just thought he was a responsible person at the beginning. Those two grandsons of mine went to the south with your mother?"
"Yeah, they went to the south to see my grandmother. The lord arranged for someone to protect him all the way, and Aunt Cao also took someone to escort me. Father doesn't have to worry."
"Well, of course I'm not worried, I'm still at ease when you do things."
"I just want to see my grandson, but I'm a little disappointed not to see anyone?"
Qin Huaiyuan was amused and laughed, and nodded Qin Yining's forehead, "You bad girl."
Qin Yining also burst into laughter, how much depression he had along the way dissipated after seeing Qin Huaiyuan.
At this time, Director Cheng led the people to approach and salute.
"I have seen Master Qin."
Qin Huaiyuan returned the salute with a smile: "Director Cheng doesn't need to be too polite. This time the little girl takes care of Manager Cheng, and this official is very grateful."
"Ouch, Lord Qin has broken the slaves." Director Cheng hurriedly avoided Qin Huaiyuan's courtesy, and instead gave Qin Huaiyuan a salute, "Thanks to the princess for showing mercy to the slaves, or else The slaves are still ill and can't get up, so I'm afraid that this errand will be delayed."
"Where, if you can do your best, it's all for the errand of the Holy Spirit."
"Yes, that's the truth." Chief Cheng nodded in agreement, and then smiled knowingly: "With the wind and snow, it's better for Lord Qin to go back to the mansion with the princess first? The servants will go back to the sage of Ming Ming right now?"
Qin Yining was a foreigner, so naturally he did not need to enter the palace to face the saint.
Qin Huaiyuan smiled and nodded naturally, and said, "In this case, I won't delay Director Cheng's errand, please."
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Director Cheng and Qin Huaiyuan were polite again, and then brought their own part of the people to the city.
Qin Huaiyuan said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go home first. We'll talk about everything when we get home."
"Yes." Qin Yining nodded with a smile.
Both masters and servants got into the carriage, Qin Yining ordered the carriage to follow Qin Huaiyuan's carriage, and the carriage of Qin Huaiyuan's followers followed at the end of the line, all the way towards the new palace given by the royal family.
This new palace was built on the basis of an original official residence. It is not comparable to the scale of the palace that was burnt to the ground, but the two families are still wealthy.
Qin Yining's carriage entered the side door and went inside side by side with Qin Huaiyuan.
Qin Huaiyuan smiled and said, "When you come back, go to Mrs. Yao and your mother-in-law to greet him first, and then come home. Your grandmother and your second aunt have already prepared meals, and your uncle is also at home."
Qin Yining nodded seriously: "Okay. I see."
Qin Huaiyuan didn't invite Yao Chenggu and Yao's to come, Qin Yining knew that maybe it was inconvenient for the two families to live in the same house, and there would be some small frictions.
Qin Huaiyuan is not a picky person, but he is not a soft persimmon to be squeezed by others. Like the old lady, Yao Shi is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If the two sides meet, some friction is possible.
However, the reason why the two families live together is that there is no way. Pang Xiao and her are not at home. With limited manpower, it is naturally the best protection to live together. Moreover, no matter how smart Yao Chenggu and Yao Shi were, they were still a step behind Qin Huaiyuan. Qin Huaiyuan could also take care of them if they lived together, lest Yao Shi and Yao Chenggu do anything to offend Tianwei by accident.
But having said that, the more people there are, the more things to do, and I don't know what was posted, which would make Qin Huaiyuan so indifferent to the Yao family's father and daughter.
Qin Yining followed Qin Huaiyuan all the way through the spacious gravel road, around the frozen mirror lake, and came to a fork in the road.
Qin Huaiyuan said with a smile: "Going inside is the courtyard of Mrs. Yao and the others, and the courtyard of you and Zhixi is next to them. This way is our family's temporary guest house. Go back first for my father, You can ask Ann to come back later."
"Yes. I understand." Qin Yining nodded, and asked Bingtang and the others to follow the maidservant to put their luggage in the courtyard. With Ji Yun, they found a little girl to lead the way to the courtyard where Yao Chenggu and Yao's were.
After walking for only a few hundred steps, when I turned a corner, there was a courtyard with the words "Chunhui Hall" written on a plaque with green paint on a black background.
Qin Yining smiled and ordered the girls to report.
In fact, Qin Yining knew it well. When she entered the mansion, she saw a servant who ran away quietly as soon as she saw her, thinking that she was going to report the news to the old man and Yao Shi.
Qin Yining and Ji Yun stood in front of the door, and the maid quickly stepped forward to knock on the door. The old woman who was guarding the door hurriedly pushed the door open. When she saw Qin Yining, she hurriedly came forward with a smile on her face and saluted, "Greetings to the princess."
"No gift. Are the old man and old lady here?"
"I'm here, I'm here, just now, the old lady ordered the slaves to come out to see if the princess is back. I miss you so much!"
Qin Yining nodded with a smile, raised his hand to signal the maid to step back, and took Ji Yun into the courtyard gate.
There were servants and maids under the corridor that Qin Yining knew and some who had eyesight, but they were all very respectful when they met Qin Yining.
A maid turned to Qin Yining's side and opened the dark red Fushou pattern oleander warm curtain for Qin Yining.
A gust of warm air mixed with the strong smell of dry smoke rushed towards the face, forming a white mist in the gap between the door curtains.
Qin Yining took off the cape on his shoulders and handed it to Ji Yun, then quickly walked around the screen with the carved cloud pattern on the corner of the plain face and walked towards the inside.
Yao Chenggu and Yao shi were sitting leaning on the heated kang by the window and talking, Yao Chenggu clicked on the cigarette holder, and the room was filled with smoke. Yao Shi was peeling and eating peanuts, and there were a lot of peanut skins on her skirt and sleeves.
Qin Yining walked closer and bowed his knees: "Greetings to the old lady and the old lady."
Yao Chenggu raised his eyelids and exhaled through the smoke, and the smoke in front of him immediately thickened.
"Come back, get up."
"Thank you, old man." Qin Yining stood up straight and put his hands down.
Yao clapped the scraps on his hands, brushed the peanut skins on his cuffs and thighs, and frowned, "Why didn't you bring my grandson back?"
"When I go back to the old lady, Brother Zhao and Brother Han were taken by Mrs. Tai and my mother to my grandmother's house in the south. As soon as Mrs. Tai saw the two brothers, she liked them so much that she didn't want to be separated for a moment. We can only let the two old people take my brother out of the house."
Hearing that Qin Yining pushed Ma Shi to hold him, Yao Shi was speechless for a moment, and turned to say: "What is Zhao Ge'er, what is Brother Han? Who got the name?"
"The old lady Hui was given by the prince, such as Showa and Ruhan. The prince said that the old lady said that the whole generation of the Pang family is like a word. Both Zhao and Han have the meaning of light, and they have inherited the incense of the Pang family. The meaning is good, so the lord gave this name."
Yao Shi had nothing to say again, Pang Ruzhao and Pang Ruhan, the sounds were indeed pleasant, much better than the Xiangbao and Yubao she had thought before.
But screaming like this really made her feel uncomfortable. The Pang family never looked at her directly. She had worked so hard to raise a child, why should she pass on the blood to the Pang family for nothing.
Thinking about it makes me feel like a fire.
Yao Shi was displeased, and her tone was not good: "Your belly is still good, and you are lucky to give birth to two males in one fell swoop, but you have to take care of yourself, after all, being a woman, it is not beautiful if you have stains.
"You may not be in good health after giving birth. You should choose two innocent girls to keep the prince in the house, and give birth to a boy and a half girl, and also call you a mother and concubine? After all, it is also the bloodline of the Pang family."
Qin Yining suddenly raised his head, the cold light in Xingxing's eyes was faint, as cold as a sharp blade flashing past in the moonlight.
Yao Shi's words were choked in his throat, but he didn't say it.
This little girl has been out for more than a year, how can she still have a temper! How dare you stare at her like that!
Qin Yining raised her head, raised her chest, and stood up straight, "I slandered the identity of my own grandson, is this what the old lady said?"
"What do you mean!"
"What I mean, the old lady is very clear! I am indeed lucky to have two men in one fell swoop, which is also a good reward for my good deeds!
"The old lady has slandered and slandered several times, and the whole house has been slandered. The rumors and rumors are all directed at me and my two children. You don't care about my daughter-in-law, don't you care about your own grandson? You don't care about the relationship between you and the prince. Mother-son relationship? Is it possible to slander me to show the authority of the old lady? The old lady is not afraid and will get the reward?"
"What kind of attitude do you have, which girl has rules like yours! Strange people say you are a savage!"
"Since the old lady doesn't look down on me, she can let the lord leave me with a letter of divorce, and I will leave with my child."
"How dare you! If you leave, you can leave on your own. It's not your turn to take my Pang family's children!"
Qin Yining sneered: "You have been in Pang's house for many years, and you have rich experience. You naturally know what kind of girl has no blemishes and a clean family background. Please accept the prince in the house and give birth to a son and a half daughter, no matter what. Isn't the bloodline of the serious Pang family
"As for my son, you're not sure if it's your grandson, but I'm sure it's my son! If anyone slanders my two children in the future, I'll let someone know what a 'wild man' is!"
