"The maids and concubines say goodbye to Madam and the Fourth Young Lady."
"Daughter greets mother."
The women's greetings were sweet and sweet, and the pictures of the neatly saluting looked very pleasing to the eye.
The premise is not to look at the smug look on their faces.
Qin Yining returned the salute with a smile, and then sat down on Sun's starting position.
Mrs. Sun's face was flushed, and she thought that she should not care about the poor food on the table, and she should not think about her crying red eyes, so she only used the style of Mrs. Zhengfang to deal with these people.
But her blushing face still betrayed her inner embarrassment and humiliation.
Cao Yuqing Shi Shiran sat on the armchair next to her, leaning on her elbows lazily, looking at the crowd with a smile, as if she was waiting to watch the play.
The four aunts Hua, Li, Qian, and Chen originally wanted to follow the example and sat down with Mrs. Cao, but when they looked up to meet Qin Yining's half-smiley eyes, they paused again.
They are not like Cao Yuqing, who has an outstanding family background, and they don't dare to be too careless in doing things.
Qin Huining had come to Sun's face at this time, holding Sun's arm and sitting beside her, softly explaining: "Mother, I have been grounded by my father these days, and I haven't been able to come to accompany you, you He looks a lot thinner."
"Yeah." Seeing her daughter, Mrs Sun was happy, but when her eyes fell on her silver-red splendid coat, she couldn't help frowning: "What are you wearing? Your grandfather and uncle just passed away. How long, and who are you showing off your fancy clothes!"
Qin Huining heard the sarcasm in her heart, but her face was full of fear, she stood up and lowered her head and said:
"Mother, it's the first month of the month. My daughter wants to walk outside. I'm afraid of making the old lady unhappy. Naturally, I can only make up a little bit. Besides, the adoptive mother has only entered the door. I will also do my best to be filial."
"Foster mother?" Sun shi didn't understand what he meant.
Qin Yining's eyes fell on Cao Yuqing, who was lazily eating candied dates.
Cao Yuqing noticed Qin Yining's gaze, and smiled politely back, intending to get close and win over.
Qin Yining raised her eyebrows lightly and withdrew her gaze.
It seemed that Qin Huining had already embraced Cao Yuqing's thigh.
Aunt Chen said with a smile: "Back to the eldest lady, Miss Huining and Sister Cao are very destined, and now the old lady is in charge, making Miss Huining recognize Sister Cao as the adoptive mother, and the concubines just went to the Cixiao Garden to watch the ceremony. "
Aunt Chen is now thirty-five years old. She was a servant girl who served Qin Huaiyuan since she was a child, and later became a maid. After Sun entered the door, she turned her face and raised her aunt.
Chen Shi felt that his relationship with Qin Huaiyuan was unusual. Even if he sold himself to the Qin family with a death deed, his status was different, so he didn't care when he spoke.
She had been suspecting all these years that it was the Sun family who gave her the sterilization pill, otherwise how could she have been pregnant? !
"Exactly, the concubine saw that Miss Huining and Sister Cao are indeed destined, even the flowers and the moon are so similar." Seeing Aunt Chen like this, Aunt Qian also smiled in cooperation: "Just now, there was a banquet in Cixiaoyuan, and everyone was so excited. It's said that Miss Huining is somewhat similar to Sister Cao. It's just that the sisters have the eldest lady in their hearts, and they only took two bites, so they came here to greet the eldest lady."
The Qian family was bought by the old lady from outside, in order to pass on Qin Huai's lineage to a good family son. Now he is 28 years old, but he looks like his early 20s, and he is very charming and charming.
With Aunt Chen and Aunt Qian taking the lead, Aunt Hua and Aunt Li also laughed, ignoring Sun's livid complexion and congratulations.
Qin Huining showed a shy face, coquettishly pulled Sun's sleeve and shook it, and called out, "Mother."
Sun shi's eyes went black for a while, and his head was buzzing. After a long while, he took a breath and pointed at Qin Huining with a trembling finger.
"Okay, okay! You ungrateful white-eyed wolf, I'm blind, and I have raised you for so many years!" The voice fell, and he slapped him.
How could Qin Huining think that the Sun would raise his hand and hit him regardless of Cao Yuqing's presence? There was no time to dodge, and he fell to the ground with a slap, covering his face and looking up at Sun.
The tears of humiliation that Sun shi had been holding back fell again, pointing to the circle of people in the room, and said, "I know what you are paying attention to. Don't forget, I am still Qin Meng's wife!"
The four concubines admired Sun's stern look, and each laughed mockingly. They have been bullied by the Sun Clan for a long time, and now they can finally see what is called "a phoenix that loses hair is not as good as a chicken", it's really happy!
Qin Huining covered her face and sobbed: "Mother calm down, no matter who I recognize as my adoptive mother, my mother is still my mother. Your daughter will never forget the kindness of your upbringing, and her daughter is just a relationship with her adoptive mother. You Don't you want to embarrass your adoptive mother?"
In a word, everyone who said it all looked at Cao Yuqing.
I saw Cao Yuqing sitting in the same position, and eating a candied date from the small purse that she was carrying, her red lips slightly pouted, and she looked really good-looking.
The concubines seemed to have the backbone when they saw Cao Yuqing like this, and looked at Sun scornfully again, and persuaded:
"The eldest lady also needs to have some grace."
"That's right, the Dingguo's mansion is gone, but the eldest lady is still there. Could it be that because the Dingguo's mansion is gone, the eldest lady's tutor is gone?"
"Now that the old lady is happy, who is the eldest lady aiming at? Is it because she is dissatisfied with the old lady?"
"No, the eldest lady is the most filial piety. How can you disrespect the old lady."
"That's for Sister Cao?"
…
The four concubines were very eloquent, and with a few words, the two people who already had blood feuds were pulled over the air.
Sun's eyes turned red with anger.
However, Cao Yuqing was still eating the snacks she brought with her.
In the past, Duke Dingguo’s mansion was powerful, and the Sun family was domineering. No one dared to offend the Sun family. Even the old lady had to be polite to her in front of the Sun family. Qin Huaiyuan was not enthusiastic about the concubine’s affairs. The four concubines naturally did not dare to make trouble.
Today is not the same as in the past. Now, the Sun family is eating rough tea and light meals, receiving the scorn of the old lady, without a backer, and facing the powerful Cao Yuqing of her mother's family. How can these aunts not take the opportunity to step on them
Sun shi's brain was buzzing again, and his whole body was shaking with anger. Just when she was about to have a seizure, Qin Yining opened her mouth first.
Her voice was not high, and she said lightly: "Everyone shut up."
The concubines were stunned when they heard Qin Yining's voice, but they didn't pay attention to the Sun family. Qin Yining was even less concerned now, and continued to "persuasion" as usual.
Qin Yining sneered, raised her voice slightly, and said, "Mother Jin, the concubine disrespects the mistress, what should I do?"
"Miss Hui, the concubine is the same as the subordinates, and naturally depends on the master."
The words fell, and the four concubines finally shut up.
Concubine Chen looked at Qin Yining mockingly, and said, "Fourth Miss, don't be too careless, the eldest lady hasn't spoken yet, what's the matter with you!"
"Yeah, it's better not to mix with adults from Miss Fourth Miss's family." Aunt Hua also said.
Qin Yining still sat in the same position and instructed Mama Jin: "Go, call a few stout old women, Chen Yiniang, Hua Yiniang, Li Yiniang, and Qian Yiniang, they have not been enough to serve their father for many years, and they cannot provide children for the Qin family. Not to mention, they still come together to make trouble in the wife's room, ramming the master as a concubine. The Qin family doesn't want such a messy family slave. They ask Ren Yazi to strip off their brocade clothes, gold and silver jewelry, and send one to each person. Put on a sackcloth jacket and sell it directly to a place I'll never see it again."
Listening to Qin Yining's instructions, everyone was dumbfounded, and Mrs Sun finally recovered and looked at her daughter dumbly.
Mother Jin swallowed, thinking to herself that the four girls are really amazing!
The aunts were also a little surprised.
I thought Qin Yining was a savage, with a savage tongue and a love for beating people. If this time angered her, the truth would no longer be with the Sun family, and outsiders would feel that the Sun family had no way of teaching, and teaching a direct daughter became a shabby house. , and also let the master see what kind of wife he married.
No one could have imagined that Qin Yining would not quarrel with them this time, nor beat them, and would actually sell them!
Aunt Chen sneered: "Joke! I have served the master since I was a child, and the master didn't say anything. Why would you sell me!"
"Why?" Qin Yining stood up and looked at Aunt Chen with a smile on his lips: "Of course I am the master and you are the servant."
He turned around and told Mama Jin, "Why don't you go soon?"
Seeing Qin Yining's independent style, Mama Jin became very proud and immediately went to call someone.
Qin Huining grabbed Qin Yining's sleeve and said, "Sister Yi, how can you do this? Father's bedside person is someone you can say if you want to! What are you going to do? Do you want to rebel!"
Qin Yining gently flicked Qin Huining's hand away and gave her a gentle smile, "Don't worry, I'll settle the account with you later."
Her voice is not high, her attitude is gentle, and she is not as powerful as before, but Qin Huining felt a chill down her back, and her heart trembled when she was frightened, and she couldn't help but take two steps back.
Seeing Cao Yuqing eating snacks beside her, Qin Huining barely suppressed the panic in her heart.
And the news that Xingning Garden was going to sell the concubine's room was spread by the servants brought by the concubines when Jin's mother was looking for someone to come, and it was known to the whole house.
In the Cixiao Garden, the old lady was talking to the second and third wives with a smile, and when she heard that such a thing happened in Xingning Garden, she immediately shouted angrily: "It's absurd, absurd! That hen that doesn't lay eggs. She can't lay an egg by herself, but she has to sell the people around Meng Ge'er, who gave her such courage!"
It was Ruyi who replied, and Ruyi raised her eyes and glanced at Mammy Qin, before she said uneasily, "Back to the old lady, this is not what the eldest lady ordered, but the fourth lady."
When the old lady heard this, her heart burst into anger: "It's this girl again! She turned against her! Dare to touch her father's pillow, the second daughter-in-law, the third daughter-in-law, you all come to see me! I'm down! Let's see, who dares to run wild in my territory!"
