This was Qin Liuxi's first time seeing Qin Yuanshan, his grandfather. Upon seeing this, he shook his head.
The confiscation of their homes and exile was a huge blow to the Qin family, and an even greater blow to the old man who had managed to become a third-rank official. His eyes were dull, and the official palace was dark and dull. This meant that he had no chance of becoming an official.
Looking at his breath again, his face was slightly blue, and when he spoke, there were rales in his lungs, which was probably due to stagnant water in his lungs.
Qin Yuanshan's energy and energy were not very good, but he was much luckier than dying on the road to exile. At least he got here safely.
"Grandpa, eldest sister, why does she want to go to the Taoist temple to practice?" Qin Mingyan sat down and asked.
Qin Yuanshan was stunned: "Why do you suddenly ask about this?"
"I'm just curious."
Qin Yuanshan said: "Your eldest sister was in poor health when she was a child and often fell ill. This was caused by a conflict with the Qin family. But when she was five years old, her current master appeared in our Qin family, which shows that her fate is strange. If If you don't leave home, you may die young, so I put her in your mother's name early and put pressure on her with your mother's nobility. And the Taoist priest told me that our Qin family will suffer a disaster in ten years. Only if your eldest sister enters Taoism will our family's fate be saved, otherwise the Qin family will be destroyed. Out of selfish motives, my grandfather sent her back to the old house and entered Taoism with Taoist priest Chi Yuan."
He said and sighed: "The old Taoist is not lying. Our Qin family really suffered a great disaster. Fortunately, only the men over twelve years old were exiled. The female family members in the family can still return to their hometown. Otherwise, the female family members will be exiled with them." , and what kind of situation is it?”
As men, they couldn't bear the hardships of the exile, so how could the women bear it? Not to mention, any of the pretty girls on the exile would be molested by the guards, and they all saw it, and they were all thankful.
Qin Mingyan heard the reason and said, "But she was only five years old at that time and she had already left home. It would be too cruel."
"It's cruel, but coming from a noble family, this is fate. I know it's unfair to her, but I am the head of the Qin family, and what I have to worry about is the entire family. Yan'er, the leader, always has times when he can't help himself." Qin Yuanshan's eyes were a little cloudy, and he looked into the void and said, "My grandfather has it, and many family heads in Shengjing will have it. I feel guilty for her, but I don't regret the decision I made at that time."
Qin Mingyan opened his mouth. What if this was just a lie told by the Taoist priest? Wouldn't it harm the eldest sister?
But seeing his grandfather's old face, he couldn't say a word.
Qin Liuxi looked at the old man in front of him coldly, turned around and walked out, jumped up to the roof and sat down, holding his chin and looking at the rows of rooftops.
As the head of the family, you should take the overall situation into consideration and consider not the future of a grandson or granddaughter, but the entire family.
If the old man had originally said that he wanted to take Qin Mingyan away, would he have been so righteous?
Qin Liuxi gave a sneer.
The setting sun gradually sets to the west.
The men of the Qin family who went out to make money returned to their nest one after another. She saw her scumbag father, two uncles, and a cousin. Without exception, they all bore traces of vicissitudes of life and were dressed in commoners, but their spirit was compared to Qin Yuanshan's. But it's much better.
Qin Liuxi looked at Qin Boqing, who had a broken arm, and a few others, talking about what happened today, and took out some reward money.
It seems that Gong Bocheng really followed her instructions and took care of a few people, making their lives much better than those of many homeless people.
Qin Liuxi looked at these elders. Although their faces were full of exhaustion and depression, they were not depressed. Instead, they seemed to have truly adapted and left.
She had no intention of getting to know a few people.
After walking out of Qin's house, she saw a carriage parked not far from Qin's house. There was a steward guarding the carriage.
Qin Liuxi's eyebrows are frivolous.
She got into the carriage.
"Is it Xiaoxi?"
In the carriage, the middle-aged man sitting upright moved his mind, looked in a certain direction as if feeling something, and moved a plate of cloud cake over?
"Isn't it me?" Qin Liuxi removed the invisibility charm, transformed into a living person, and showed his true body. He looked at the man opposite and grinned: "Brother, long time no see."
The uncle's forehead jumped and he glared at her: "Don't be naughty, I'm old enough to be your father."
"It's too miserable to be my father. I'm lighting a fire over there!" Qin Liuxi pointed in the direction of the Qin family and said, "Why are you here? I thought you had gone to the Western Regions long ago."
"We haven't set off yet." Uncle Gong said, "If you hadn't given those two little beggars the peace charm, I wouldn't have known you were here."
"I have something to do here. Let's take a look at those people." Qin Liuxi twisted a piece of cloud cake and put it in her mouth to bite. The sweet and melt-in-the-mouth texture made her as satisfied as a satiated cat. Er narrowed his eyes.
Uncle Gong shook his head and moved a few more plates of exquisite snacks over.
"Has everyone seen it?" he asked while pouring tea for her.
Qin Liuxi swallowed the pastry, took the warm tea he handed to her, drank it in one gulp, and said, "No, there's no need to meet."
The uncle heard this and asked, "How long will you stay here?"
"I'll leave in a moment." Qin Liuxi touched another piece of pastry and said, "I'm not like you, big brother, who is free and wealthy, but I have to go back to earn sesame oil money. There's no way, I'm the Young Master now, and I have a heavy burden. Very much."
Gong Bocheng looked at her silently extended hand and swatted it away: "No money."
How can such a good thing happen if you just meet up with someone, collect some money, and then leave?
Qin Liuxi said in a faint voice: "Brothers, don't forget each other even if we are rich and noble. Remember back then when I detoxified you and gave you etheric veins to help you cut off good and bad fortunes, it cost you more than a thousand pieces of gold? Now I want it from you. Not even a few pocket coins?"
Gong Bocheng sneered: "Guild Bank, your seal has never been used once. I put a knife on your neck to prevent you from taking it?"
Qin Liuxi chuckled: "No reward for no merit."
As she spoke, she held his hand, carefully felt his pulse, and said after a while: "The fire in your heart is a bit strong, your liver yang is elevated, your eyes are blue and black, and your spleen and stomach are weak and cold. Have you not slept well recently?"
The uncle nodded.
Qin Liuxi took out the needle pack from his purse, opened it, and said, "Lie down and I'll give you a few needles."
The uncle lay obediently in the spacious carriage and allowed her to administer the acupuncture. When he heard the long-lost prayer, the corners of his lips raised and his eyes gradually closed.
When he woke up, Qin Liuxi had long disappeared, and only the steward was waiting by him. He couldn't help but sigh, that child could not be kept.
"Sir, the eldest lady also left behind Jingfang and Yangrong Pills." The steward said with a smile.
Uncle Gongcheng nodded and said, "It's almost summer. Let the embroidery shop make a few more sets of clothes and send them to her. I think she's grown a little taller."
"Don't worry, I'll take note of it."
Gong Bocheng said again: "Then the Qin family don't need to look after it too carefully. There seems to be some movement in the capital to investigate the sacrifice. It seems that they will not stay in the northwest for a few years."
The steward sighed: "They are very lucky."
Uncle Gongcheng lowered his eyes and snorted: "Their greatest blessing is giving birth to Xiaoxi."
The steward didn't dare to answer the conversation, for fear that this man would be so bitter that he wouldn't even be as jealous as the vinegar here.
And Qin Mingyan, the next day, looked at a prescription for treating cough and asthma that appeared out of thin air on his pillow, and screamed, is this, is there a ghost in the house?
