Qin Huaiyuan said slowly and perseveringly: "You are my daughter, and I naturally understand what you are thinking and resenting. You are smart and keen, and you can see through many things at a glance, but you are too impetuous, and you won't forgive anyone if you see it through, what? Everything has to be right and wrong.
"I know that when you argue or do something with others in this house, it's almost impossible for no one to stop you, but what about when you go outside? If you really run into a trainee, you're just a little stronger, so what can you do to others? What's more, you are now relying on the identity of the first daughter. No one in this family will hurt my daughter, but when you go outside, even if you don't take the initiative to provoke, someone will hurt you. Sister Yi, is this what you said for the father? Li'er?"
"Father is absolutely right. My daughter is wrong." Qin Yining bowed her head in shame, "My daughter is really too serious. Sometimes she can't help but be impulsive when she sees some injustice."
Qin Huaiyuan smiled, "I understand your feelings, but you must remember that filial piety comes first, and even if the old lady does things wrong, she is my mother after all. I want to change your mother's situation and believe in you for my father. It's not just a method of confrontation. Your powerful skills can be used on Qin Huining, but it is disrespectful to the elders. What's more, what if you win the argument with the elders? It will be you who will suffer in the future. Mother and daughter, are you right?"
Qin Huai was mostly in the outer house. Apart from greeting the old lady, he seldom set foot in the inner house. He even analyzed the people in the inner house so thoroughly, which made Qin Yining very admire.
"Father is right, but in fact, my daughter regrets it too. At that time, my daughter only thought that the old lady doesn't care about me anyway, what I say or do, she still doesn't care about me, and if she wants to be indifferent to my mother and me, it will be no less. , and let everything go."
"But you actually have a tactful way, but you just can't hold back when your mind is hot?"
Qin Yining blushed and nodded, looking like a little milk cat who knew he had made a mistake and begged his master's forgiveness.
Qin Huaiyuan laughed: "You are a child, it's not a big mistake to be reckless and impulsive. As a father, I also think that as a person, you can't just endure blindly, you must be both rigid and soft. Being a father doesn't mean that you are not allowed to be rigid and soft. But you also have to distinguish the object, for those you can't collide with, it may be more appropriate to be firm, Chinese and foreign."
"Yes." Qin Yining looked at Qin Huaiyuan admiringly, with bright eyes: "Father was like this just now, saying 'hidden knife in a smile' makes many people feel guilty and blushing. Father, when will my daughter be like you! I feel hello Amazing! No noise, no need to raise your voice, just a few words will suppress people!"
Seeing her daughter's eyes full of admiration, Qin Huaiyuan felt very satisfied.
The big hand couldn't help touching Qin Yining's head, "The means is one aspect, but more importantly, it is because of the identity of the father."
Qin Yining blinked, his eyelashes flickering to understand what Qin Huaiyuan meant.
Her father was telling her that only by standing in a higher position and relying on people can people be feared.
Moreover, only "being in the position" and "doing his own thing" can make people convincing, otherwise it will be deviant and will be criticized.
Qin Yining nodded heavily: "My daughter knows, she will be filial to the old lady in the future."
"These are not big things. I believe that you have handled them well. But there are still many suspicious things about Xian Guguan today. Come and talk to my father."
Qin Yining knew that Qin Huaiyuan would definitely ask, so he told the story without hesitation. When it came to Yao Zhixi, Qin Yining did not tell the truth, but used those words to deal with Xu Mao.
Qin Huaiyuan did not doubt such a half-truth, but said, "Although that Young Master Yao is acquainted with the shopkeeper Zhong Da, his eyes and spirit do not look like an ordinary person for his father. It is appropriate to order someone to heal his wounds, but it is also a safe way to stay away."
Qin Yining recalled what had happened since he met Yao Zhixi, and felt that this person was unfathomable, so he said obediently, "Don't worry, father."
Seeing that her daughter didn't hide herself at all, Qin Huaiyuan was very satisfied, nodded and said, "You can do it as you please. For my father, I believe that you have your own rules of conduct. There is one more thing that you should pay attention to."
"Father, please order."
"Now that Dazhou's documents have been scattered twice in the city, the emperor has concluded that Dazhou's spies have already penetrated into the capital. In addition to today's incident at Xiangu Temple, Master Xu thinks that it is because of Dazhou people who set up the suspicion, and the emperor is afraid that he will be uneasy. If uneasy, what do you think he will do?"
Qin Yining thought about it for a while, and then said bluntly: "The emperor must try his best to seek peace, be more soft-hearted towards Da Zhou, and use the knife to calm Da Zhou's anger towards those who are loyal to him."
Qin Huaiyuan was choked by Qin Yining's straightforward statement.
Seeing Qin Huaiyuan's silence, Qin Yining asked with a smile, "Father, is what my daughter said wrong?"
"Your analysis is very incisive." Qin Huaiyuan coughed and said, "Now our family has become an in-law with the Cao family, and the emperor and I have become brothers-in-law, so we can be safe for the time being, and it's hard to say about other families. So If anyone has a flower viewing party recently, don't go to it, and I will explain this to your grandmother when I look back."
"Yes. Daughter remember."
"Also, where is your mother..." Speaking of the Sun family, Qin Huaiyuan frowned and sighed: "This time, no matter what the reason is, I'm sorry for your mother, you have to take care of her."
Qin Yining nodded obediently.
Seeing that Qin Huaiyuan felt guilty towards Sun for taking a concubine under the order, his heart was full of mixed feelings. His father was forced to, and his mother's resentment was not wrong.
All of this was because of the emperor's various practices that mixed their peaceful lives.
There was silence in the study, and after a long time, Qin Huaiyuan said: "Now Xihuacheng Dazhou has changed the coach, I don't know if the war will ease."
"Changed the head coach?" Qin Yining said in surprise, "Isn't that little prince the head coach?"
"Pang Zhixi is unruly and unruly. He refused to obey Emperor Zhou's command before the battle, and was deprived of the position of Marshal of Pingnan by Emperor Zhou in a rage. Now the new Marshal of Pingnan in Dazhou is Lian Shengjie, Minister of War."
Qin Huaiyuan had a mocking smile on his face: "This Lian Shengjie has average ability to lead troops, but he is lustful and greedy for money, and he is a man who knows how to get into camps. Our spy came to report that it was Pang Zhixi who was deprived of the power of the head coach and was dissatisfied. , fell out with Lian Shengjie in just two days, and left the barracks in a rage on his horse, and now he does not know where to go. And Pang Zhixi's Hu Ben army refused to listen to Lian Shengjie's command at all. If Da Zhou continued to make trouble like this , our crisis may be resolved."
Pang Zhixi
When Qin Yining heard the name, she immediately thought of Yao Zhixi.
However, the names of the two are exactly the same, which is not surprising.
Qin Yining didn't think much about it, only said: "It would be good if they had internal strife."
Qin Huaiyuan also said, "It's up to them to arrange it now, and we can also take the opportunity to breathe."
Qin Yining heard Qin Huaiyuan's tone and knew that on Da Zhou's side, even if Pang Zhixi was not leading the troops, they would have little chance of winning for Dayan.
Even if there is not much hope, Qin Yining hopes that they can pass this year safely.
—
Thirty-five years of Dayan Qinglong, and three years of Great Zhou Shengchang, came under the dull taste of the year.
Qin Yining and Mrs. Sun wanted to keep their filial piety for the son of the Sun family, so they didn't say anything about wearing plain clothes. They didn't participate in the family banquet or inviting the opera troupe to sing.
Last time, Miss Liu was banned by the second lady because she helped Qin Huining. Because of the New Year, the ban was relieved.
But Qin Huining was ordered by Qin Huaiyuan to think about copying the "Book of Filial Piety" a hundred times behind closed doors in the Sydney Courtyard, but she didn't know why she didn't finish copying it immediately, and she was extraordinarily quiet throughout the New Year.
The most surprising thing is Qin Huaiyuan's attitude towards Cao Yuqing.
Qin Huaiyuan has never been able to see such a beautiful woman with tenderness like water. She only provides food and drink to her, and has never been to her yard.
Qin Huaiyuan's attitude made those people in the mansion respect Sun's a lot.
Except for the old lady.
"Don't Sun and Sister Yi want to keep filial piety? Naturally, they can't eat big fish and meat, so the kitchen cooks some vegetarian dishes and sends them away. How can I do it simply? It's too delicate, how can it show Sun's filial piety? Also, sister Yi gave her the bird's nest porridge for free, don't you need money for the bird's nest? Keeping the filial piety is so extravagant, who will give her face!"
The old lady took two sips while holding the brand-new brass cigarette holder. She felt that the new cigarette holder was not as easy to use as the original one, and she couldn't help but get angry again.
Mother Qin persuaded several times, but she didn't dare to say it too frankly and called the old lady suspicious. In the end, she could only have people send food such as boiled vegetables to Xingning Garden.
In Xingning Garden.
Holding the bowl, Mr. Sun looked at the brown rice in the bowl, and then looked at the rotten yellow vegetable soup boiled with vegetable leaves in a jar. His whole body was shaking with anger.
"What is this? It's bullying me who has no parents! No matter how bad I am, I'm still Qin Meng's direct wife. Is that how they treat Qin Meng's family like this!"
Sun was so angry that he was about to throw the bowl.
Qin Yining's eyes and hands were quick, and he rescued the poor white porcelain bowl.
I don't know how many have been broken in the past few days. The money of the broken dishes is more valuable than the vegetable soup they eat.
"Mom, calm down. Do you remember what I said to you before, that you can only get the best by eating hard? Besides, although the food they brought was so careless, we actually didn't eat badly. ."
Qin Yining smiled and said, "Do you think the vegetarian dishes in Guangyuan Building are good? My daughter asked someone to buy them again?"
Sun's tears rolled around her eyes, "We are the long house, and we have a fixed number every month. The big kitchen sends this kind of food box. We eat less than the next person. Where did all the money go? I They sent someone to ask, they said that we should keep filial piety, we need to eat less plain food, and there is no shortage of good food and drink. This is the old lady, this is slapping me in the face!"
Tears could not hold back and finally fell.
Seeing this, Qin Yining was helpless, coaxing and persuading. After all the persuasion was said, Mrs. Sun stopped crying.
At this moment, there was a coquettish whisper from the courtyard.
Mama Jin said back and forth with a very ugly face: "Mrs. Cao Auntie, Auntie Hua, Auntie Li, Auntie Qian, Auntie Chen, and Miss Huining have come to say hello to you."
The voice fell, and before Sun shi could say refusal, the door curtain was lifted, and a fragrant wind rushed in, and a group of beautiful aunts walked in first.
