The sun sets.
Night fell and lanterns were hung in the mansion.
In the plum garden.
Miss Qin Er, dressed in a plain white dress, was sitting in front of the desk in the study room, waving her bare hands lightly and writing "Story of the Three Kingdoms" with a pen.
The two thin smoky eyebrows look like they are frowning but not frowning; the slightly pale cheeks have a hint of worry.
Write and meditate.
But at this moment, she couldn't calm down.
Only she and her brother-in-law knew the news brought by the second wife of Cheng Guofu.
Didn't tell anyone.
Before leaving, her brother-in-law also told her not to tell anyone else for the time being.
Although she believed in her brother-in-law's abilities, this matter was too dangerous after all. How could she not be worried?
Unfortunately, she was too weak to help her brother-in-law herself.
"Why……"
She sighed softly: "If I had the ability of the eldest princess, then my brother-in-law would not have these troubles. For my brother-in-law, besides being able to chat with him, what other use do I have? I am not even as good as Xia Chan and Bai Ling, at least they are useful to my brother-in-law... I am not even as good as Xiaodie, at least she is healthy and can serve my brother-in-law. And me? I don't know when I will fall... For my brother-in-law For me, I am just a burden after all..."
The night breeze blows outside the window, bringing the fragrance of flowers in the courtyard.
You can only smell it, but you can't touch it.
She put down her pen and was frowning in random thoughts when Qiu'er knocked softly on the door and said, "Miss, Madam is here."
Immediately, footsteps entered the house and there was a knock on the door.
"Weimo, can mother come in?"
Song Ruyue's gentle voice came from outside the door.
Second Miss Qin came to her senses, cleared away the complicated thoughts in her mind, and said softly: "Mother, come in."
"Squeak..."
The door opens.
Song Ruyue was dressed in a purple skirt and walked in gracefully. She frowned with the same thin eyebrows as hers and said somewhat unhappily: "What about that brat? Why aren't you here with you?"
Miss Qin Er smiled slightly and said softly: "Brother-in-law has gone back to study. It's almost the Chinese New Year, and the autumn exams are not far away. How can you have so much time with me?"
Song Ruyue walked next to her, looked down at the writing on the rice paper on the table, and then looked at her again and said, "In the evening, Yang Ping'er from Chengguo Mansion came over. What did she say to you?"
Second Miss Qin rolled up the rice paper on the table and said softly: "We just chatted for a while and didn't say anything."
Song Ruyue suddenly became angry and said: "Wei Mo, do you treat my mother as an outsider? You haven't even gotten married yet, and it's starting to look like water being thrown out?"
Second Miss Qin turned to look at her and said with a smile: "Mother, you came just in time. Wei Mo has something he wants to discuss with you."
Song Ruyue was slightly startled, and immediately said seriously: "Say it."
Miss Qin Er put the rolled-up rice paper away, then looked at her and said: "Mother, the bones of my brother-in-law's mother are still buried in the barren mountains. Since you and dad have approved of him, Wei Mo wants dad to agree to put the Do you think it’s okay for the bones of my brother-in-law’s mother to be moved to the ancestral grave of our Qin family?”
As soon as these words came out, Song Ruyue's face suddenly changed, and she immediately said: "This is not allowed, it is against the rules. Even your second grandmother, third grandmother, and the mother of your third uncle and fourth uncle are not qualified to be buried after their death. In the ancestral tomb of the Qin family. You also know that no matter it is a big family with titles like ours or a family in the village, the rules are the same. People with foreign surnames cannot be buried in the ancestral tomb of the family unless they are the first wives. That boy His mother has nothing to do with our Qin family, and her background... Wei Mo, you can't be willful in this matter. No matter how nice you are to that boy, you can't make fun of the ancestral rules. Your father loves you, and he doesn't like to abide by etiquette. , I may respect your opinion, but our Qin family is a big family, and it’s not just our family. The ancestors of the Qin family are buried in the ancestral graves. Even if that kid gets the number one scholar in the future and becomes a high official, this matter will not matter. Absolutely impossible, you don’t even have to think about it.”
Miss Qin Er was silent for a moment and said softly: "Mother, Wei Mo remembers that there is a lot of land next to the ancestral grave. If someone from the village there dies, they are sometimes buried there. Can my brother-in-law's mother be moved there? ? This shouldn’t be considered a violation of ancestral rules, right?”
Song Ruyue frowned, looked at her and said, "Wei Mo, why did you suddenly mention this matter? Is it related to what Yang Ping'er said today? Or did that kid bring it up on his own initiative?"
Miss Qin Er said: "When my brother-in-law went out to visit the grave and did not return all night, Wei Mo mentioned this matter to his father. After all, my brother-in-law has married into our Qin family, and it is not appropriate for his mother's bones to be buried in the barren mountains. There is so much land next to our ancestral graves, so it doesn’t matter if we give one to my brother-in-law’s mother. My father agreed at the time, but in the end nothing happened. It must have been my second uncle who refused. Mother, so Weimo wants to ask you for help today. Go and tell dad again."
After a pause, she said softly: "After all, brother-in-law has done so many things for our Qin family. Just defeating the Song family's conspiracy at the eldest princess's banquet last time is worthy of our Qin family doing something for his mother." What. Mother, what do you think?"
Song Ruyue was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course I have no objection to being buried next to the ancestral grave. But after all, your second uncle is in charge of the Qin family now. Even if I tell your father, your father can't do it without permission. Decide. Wait until your father goes to discuss it with them."
Miss Qin Er said softly: "Mother, hurry up."
Song Ruyue stared at her for a while and said, "Wei Mo, your father asked me to ask you, do you want to tell your second uncle and others about this matter in advance?"
Second Miss Qin was slightly startled: "What's the matter?"
Song Ruyue rolled her eyes and said angrily: "What else is there, isn't it the matter between you and that boy? What your father means is that if we go to Kyoto by then, it will be difficult to handle this matter. , so I want to help you get it done before going to Kyoto. When you get married, no one will say anything else after going to Kyoto. Your father wants to tell the rest of the Qin family in advance so that they can be mentally prepared. When I got it, I was shocked and couldn't understand it. Your father held a family meeting that day and announced to everyone that he would choose a husband for you. In fact, he had already given them a hint, and the hint was very obvious. Your second uncle must have guessed it already. I'm here, I probably told your fourth uncle and the others, otherwise it would be impossible for no one to come to propose marriage after such a long time."
"What your father means now is to tell them directly that you are going to marry that boy, so that they can be mentally prepared in advance. What do you think?"
Second Miss Qin was silent for a while and said, "Mother, wait a little longer, I...I haven't thought about it yet."
"Haven't thought about it yet?"
When Song Ruyue heard this, her face was full of doubts: "What haven't you thought of yet?"
Qin Weimo looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "Mother, are you going to let your sister divorce your brother-in-law, and then let him marry me?"
Song Ruyue nodded and said: "Yes, Jianjia doesn't like that boy anyway, and it was Jianjia who took the initiative to bring this matter up. It just so happens that you and that boy are in love, Jianjia divorced him, and he followed you again, perfect !”
Qin Weimo murmured in a low voice: "It's not perfect at all."
Song Ruyue frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Qin Weimo raised his head and met her eyes: "Mom, you know what Weimo means. Weimo is not in good health and will be at any time... So, Weimo doesn't want to be his brother-in-law's first wife, Weimo just wants to... … I just want to be my brother-in-law’s concubine, or just like that… my sister-in-law…”
As soon as these words came out, the tip of Song Ruyue's eyebrows suddenly twitched for a few times, and then her face darkened and she said angrily: "You think so beautifully! Bah! It's the beauty that that brat thinks about! He's dreaming! He's delusional! He can't even think about it! Don't think about it! Tell your mother the truth, did that little bastard tell you this and teach you this? Did he force you to tell me this? Shameless little thief! I want all the sisters, I want to eat the bowl What's in the pot is stealing what's in the pot, bah! I'd rather die than surrender! Even if that little bastard sells me out in anger, I will never agree!"
The more he curses, the angrier he gets!
It is tolerable, but what is unbearable!
"Zhu'er! Go and call that little bastard over here! I want him to know who is in charge of the Qin Mansion! I want him to know that I, Song Ruyue, am not someone to be bullied!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Pearl hurried away immediately.
Miss Qin Er immediately said anxiously: "Mother, it's Weimo's own idea to not care about brother-in-law's affairs. Brother-in-law has never thought about it in this way, nor has he said anything in this way. Don't reprimand him..."
"Shut up! Do you think I'm blind? He has been entangled with that Bailing Xia Chan all day long. He and Xia Chan went on a date in my back garden in the middle of the night. He kept flirting with that Bailing girl, and then provoked you. His sister Everyone in the Qin Mansion knows about Tong Chi’s dirty thoughts, and I’m not an idiot!”
"Stop talking! Let me teach him a lesson later! If you don't teach him a lesson for three days, he will rebel against you!"
Not long after.
Zhuer came in a hurry with Luo Qingzhou.
"Mother-in-law."
Luo Qingzhou had just been doing exercises in the back garden and practicing Plum Blossom Flying Fist. At this time, he was sweating profusely, and his fisting intention had not yet completely subsided. He was panting heavily while looking at her, and subconsciously couldn't help but feel the hand in his sleeve. He clenched his fists and unclenched them again and again.
Song Ruyue had her hands on her hips, her face full of anger, and all kinds of reprimands were about to come out from her throat. When she saw his eyes and aura, and saw his fists repeatedly clenched in his sleeves, she suddenly thought of the insidious and terrifying little bastard, and her heart skipped a beat. Shrinking, with a straight face, he said with a serious expression: "Do you know why I asked you to come? Did you say something to Weimo that shouldn't be said?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said respectfully: "What is your mother-in-law referring to?"
Song Ruyue met his eyes, her soul suddenly trembled, and her heart became even more frightening: "You...you know what you said! Humph!"
Luo Qingzhou frowned and thought carefully.
Song Ruyue had been holding back a lot of reprimands in her heart, but she didn't dare to say a word at this time, so she could only say harsh words: "I tell you, it's impossible! Don't even think about it!"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and suddenly realized, he raised his hands and said respectfully: "Mother-in-law, is it about my mother's bones? Mother-in-law, don't worry, Qingzhou knows the rules and knows the appropriateness. Qingzhou only wants a piece of land, as long as it's not in the wilderness It's okay to move to the ridge, but I don't dare to expect to move to the Qin family's ancestral grave. If my mother-in-law still feels embarrassed, Qingzhou can just spend money to buy a piece of land by himself. "
As soon as these words came out, Song Ruyue was stunned. The anger and grievances that were blocking her heart suddenly disappeared.
Seeing how sensible this boy was, and thinking that his mother was really pitiful, her heart softened, and her tone softened and she said: "It's not difficult at all. You are a member of my Qin family. I will give you a piece of land to bury your mother." That's right. It definitely won't work inside the Qin family's ancestral tomb, but there is still a lot of land around the ancestral tomb. Then you can choose a day and just move there. Don't worry, no one dares to say anything about this matter. "
Luo Qingzhou's heart warmed, and he bowed his head and said respectfully: "Thank you, mother-in-law. Qingzhou will definitely remember the Qin family's kindness and will never forget it."
After hearing this, Song Ruyue felt even softer and relieved. She was silent for a moment and waved her hands: "Okay, go ahead. I will tell your father-in-law about this in person. He must handle it for you in the next few days." good."
Luo Qingzhou thanked her again and did not dare to stay any longer. He glanced at Miss Qin and turned to leave.
After he went out, Song Ruyue was still immersed in the warm and gratifying emotions just now, and said to herself: "That boy is quite sensible."
Miss Qin Er on the side held back her laughter and said, "Mother, didn't you just say that you wanted to teach your brother-in-law a lesson?"
Song Ruyue came back to her senses, rolled her eyes at her, and snorted coldly: "Mother, this is for your sake, I am afraid that you will be embarrassed and distressed. Hum, if you were not here, that kid would have been kneeling on my mother's side right now. He kowtows in front of him and admits his mistake! Mother, I promise he will spray foam all over his head!"
Second Miss Qin suppressed her laughter, paused, and whispered: "Mother, would you please consider Wei Mo's proposal again? My brother-in-law is not an outsider anyway, so neither my sister nor I will care."
"Shut up! You're dreaming! Don't even think about it!"
Song Ruyue glared and said angrily.
Thinking of her two beautiful girls, stripping off their clothes and lying on the boy's bed together to serve him, and being teased and bullied by him at will, she felt heartache and pain in her bones!
"Unless I die!"
She gritted her teeth.
After Luo Qingzhou returned, he took a shower.
Then he confessed to Xiaodie, and his soul left his body.
As soon as his soul rose into the air, he suddenly found a figure standing at the entrance of the alley by the back door, looking towards the gate and into the alley from time to time.
Sure enough, I was waiting for him to go out!
