26. Miss Qin who was isolated
Zhou Xuan said goodbye to all the insect friends, and Boss Feng sent the insect club carriage to take him back to Qin Mansion.
On the carriage, Lai Fu was dressed in a mahogany box with silver, and kept giggling.
Zhou Xuan said: "Lai Fu, follow my son-in-law to do it well. I promise you to marry a wife and thirty acres of fertile land. This is called a peasant wife, a mountain spring, a little field, and you can live a comfortable life. Look, this is twenty taels of silver. Take it first, don't be grateful. This is your income from labor. Don't say much when you go home, otherwise Song Dachun and the others will be jealous of you."
Lai Fu patted his chest and choked and said that he would follow his son-in-law in the water and fire.
Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "What about water and fire? It's not about robbing - mistress, Hu Tong, you two will follow me in the future. I plan to set up a worm club to contribute to the development of Jiangzhou cricket entertainment industry." Each of them also gave them twenty taels of silver.
The two simple farm boys were blushing and couldn't say a word of gratitude.
The carriage drove into Jiulianfang. The weather was hot and there were many people in the carriage. Everyone drank wine. The air was turbid and smelled unpleasant. Zhou Xuan held Xiaodi who was asleep and poked his head out of the car window to breathe fresh air. Suddenly, he saw an acquaintance walking out of a restaurant on the street with his stomach outstretched.
"Song Dachun--" Zhou Xuan cried, slapped the carriage, and the carriage stopped.
When Lai Fu's colleague Ding Song Dachun heard someone shouting, he looked around for a while, and saw Zhou Xuan in the carriage, his face suddenly froze for some reason, and walked over a little embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be a son-in-law, you are back." As he said, he turned his head and looked at the restaurant he had just come out.
Zhou Xuan asked: "What are you doing here? Is it the wife who asked you to come to us?"
Song Dachun said with a panic look: "No, no, the villain met a friend here and had a drink with him. He went back now and went back immediately." As he said that, without waiting for Zhou Xuan and the others, he trotted to the Qin Mansion by himself.
Zhou Xuan was a little surprised. Song Dachun was not honest and a little sloppy. What kind of friends did he drink with? He was so stupid?
Zhou Xuan drank a few more drinks and his head was a little dizzy. He didn't think deeply about it. He asked the driver to continue moving forward and return to Qin Mansion.
What Zhou Xuan did not expect was that as soon as his carriage drove out of the restaurant for hundreds of meters, a middle-aged man with white and thin faces walked out of the restaurant. Zhou Xuan also recognized this person as his father-in-law's deputy, Assistant Professor Jiang from the State Medical Bureau.
Zhou Xuan returned to Qin's mansion and first carried Xiaodi to his mother-in-law, and then asked Lai Fu and Song Dachun to carry the mahogany box containing silver in it.
Everyone in the Qin Mansion knew that my son-in-law had gone to gamble crickets, which was a gamble of 3,000 taels of silver. At this time, when he saw the box coming in, the whole mansion caused a sensation. Everyone knew that my son-in-law had won and my son-in-law had made a fortune.
Zhou Xuan took 820 taels of silver in his room, carried the remaining 2,000 taels and the mahogany box to Mrs. Qin's room, and said respectfully: "The son-in-law asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law to be the blessing of the two adults. This time, he won the battle insect by chance. In addition to the cost of treating guests, the remaining 2,800 taels of silver was left. The son-in-law left 800 taels for spare. Here are two thousand taels, and all of them were handed over to the mother-in-law for the family."
Mrs. Qin was chatting with her adorable daughter Seen Needle. After hearing Zhou Xuan's words, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak. After a while, she moistened her dry lips and said, "Zhou——Uh, son-in-law, it's better for you to keep the money yourself. This is the money you earn, how can we Qin take good care of it!"
Zhou Xuan said: "What does my mother-in-law say? Zhou Xuan is the son-in-law of the Qin Mansion for one day. The money he earns must be handed over to his elders. This etiquette is indispensable." As he said that, he bowed back and his humble appearance was a role model for the son-in-law of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Mrs. Qin stared at the white silver, and after thinking about it, she completely forgot that her adopted daughter Su Renzhen was still beside her.
As for sewing needles, I had been watching the expressions of Zhou Xuan and Mrs. Qin coldly just now, and I felt very strange. She thought that Zhou Xuan agreed to have a fake marriage for the sake of the Qin family's money, but now it seems that it is not the case. What is Zhou Xuan for? Is there really such a filial fake son-in-law in the world?
Sewing Needle thought about it for a long time and understood Zhou Xuan's painstaking efforts. Zhou Xuan liked Qin Que and wanted to be a real son-in-law.
Thinking of this, the sewing needle suddenly felt empty.
Dr. Qin and his daughter came home from get off work at 4:30 in the afternoon. They learned that Zhou Xuan had won 3,000 taels of silver from Wu Gongcao's son. Dr. Qin was surprised. Although Qin Que was also surprised, he was not particularly happy. He just secretly said to Ernine: "Sister Zi Er, Que'er is right, he is quite able to make money."
Mrs. Qin asked the maid to invite the master and the lady to go to her room to discuss things. The sewing needle was very sensible and knew that the lady was not referring to her, so she quietly avoided it.
The family meeting was chaired by Mrs. Qin. She first informed Zhou Xuan about the silver offering, pointed to the mahogany box in the corner of the wall and said, "The two thousand taels of silver are there, what do you think should you do?"
Dr. Qin shook his head and sighed: "Good kid, good kid. That day, when I saw him outside the tea stall, I knew that he was not an idiot. He exuded the noble aura of a prince, and even though he was in trouble, he did not hide his light-"
Qin Que heard his father praise him too much and couldn't help but say, "Okay, Dad, he is made of gold and shining!"
Dr. Qin also laughed: "I won't say it anymore. You and your mother and daughter decided on this matter. I can't speak anyway."
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qin must make him say this time: "Master, you are the head of the family. Of course, you have the idea of this matter, you can speak freely."
Dr. Qin felt that the wife's attitude was a bit strange, and he twisted her beard and said, "I said, "What's wrong with accepting this money? It's all a family--"
"Well, it's a family. When Mr. Zhou marrys Sister Renzi, he will be a family." Qin Que heard something in his father's words, so he quickly said the matter of Erzi as a shield.
"Huh?" Dr. Qin didn't know about Mrs. Qin's plan to make the erect needle easy to marry. He was very surprised. After learning the whole story, he said angrily: "You guys just mess around, I don't care." He stood up and was about to exit the venue.
Mrs. Qin held her back and said, "Master, the matter of sewing needles is just a joke. Isn't you going to make any decisions about such a big deal?"
Dr. Qin thought to himself what happened to his wife today. He delegated power several times and was not polite now: "What I mean is that a handsome man like Mr. Zhou is hard to come by. If you insist on pushing him to others, then I have nothing to say - Que'er, think about it, if Xiao Lu really cares about you, how could he not even catch up with the wedding date and not even a person to report the news?"
Qin Que's tears suddenly burst out from his eyes and he whimpered, "My cousin must have something urgent, otherwise he will definitely come-"
When Dr. Qin saw his daughter crying, he panicked and said, "I'm talking too much, I'm talking too much, I'm going to wash my face." He hurriedly left.
Qin Que gradually stopped sobing, and the house was very quiet.
After a while, Mrs. Qin asked, "Qi'er, what should you do if you say this?"
Qin Que is such a smart girl. Her mother was talking strangely today and she had noticed it long ago and said with tears in her eyes: "Mother, what's wrong with you? Didn't this matter be agreed upon long ago? Could it be that when my mother saw the 2,000 taels of silver surnamed Zhou, she changed her mind?"
Mrs. Qin blushed and said, "What are you talking about? Is your mother the kind of greedy person? I think Mr. Zhou is really good-looking--"
"Mother, don't say it." Qin Que interrupted his mother: "Mr. Zhou is ten thousand times more characterful, and Que'er only has her cousin in her heart. Que'er will wait, and his cousin will definitely come to marry Que'er."
Mrs. Qin sighed, patted Qin Que's back of the hand, and said warmly: "Qi'er, Mom is also for your own good. Since you have made up your mind, Mom won't say anything anymore. I just hope Xiao Lu will come quickly. At that time, Mom will definitely grab his ear skin and ask him to apologize to you, which will cause my Que'er to suffer so much grievance."
