Marrying into a poor family

The third wife was about to get angry. As soon as her breath reached her throat, Qin Xiang made a silencing gesture and pointed towards the upper room: "Does the third wife want to disturb the old lady?"

It doesn't matter whether the method is old or not, as long as it works, it will work. Sure enough, the only person who can suppress the third wife in time is the word "old lady".

Qin Xiang was a little tired, so she took the tea to see the guests off, which was a way of giving face to the third wife.

The third wife stood up and left angrily. Of course, she had long forgotten to take a look at Qin Yafeng.

The next day, Qin Xiang got up early, packed up and said goodbye to the old lady. The old lady stayed with her for breakfast before letting her go.

Qin Xiang left with her children and Qing Gu. There were only three of them, but the courtyard seemed to be as quiet as dead water again.

Qin Xiang did not leave immediately, but went to Lu's house. Mrs. Lu insisted on keeping her for one day. Qin Xiang saw that Mrs. Lu had something to ask, so she stayed.

Mrs. Lu asked Qin Xiang how her days at the Qin family were going.
Qin Xi smiled and said it was fine, and explained the matter in general.

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Lu was satisfied and relieved.

"I was a little worried because you were too stubborn before. Now that you can make use of the resources of the Qin family, I feel more relieved."

People are afraid that their obsession will be too deep and they will not be able to see the way forward clearly, or they will do something when they know they cannot do it, and the consequences will often be unimaginable.

The sign of a person growing up is that he has smoothed his edges and learned to be smooth. Although it hurts and feels uncomfortable, if not, he will definitely be scarred in the future.

Qin Xiang nodded and accepted Mrs. Lu's careful teaching, feeling grateful in her heart. Mrs. Lu was one of the few who was truly kind to her. For such people, Qin Xiang could only be grateful and remember them in her heart.

In the evening of that day, Mrs. Lu held a banquet to see Qin Xiang off. Lu Jiu also rushed back from outside. Master Lu went to another place to check the accounts and could not come back for the time being.

Mrs. Lu sat at the top, Qin Xiang sat on her left, Lu Jiu on the right, and his wife Huang sat down next to Lu Jiu.

The four of them had no rule of not talking while eating, and they chatted while eating, but mostly it was Mrs. Lu and Qin Xi who talked. Lu Jiu interrupted from time to time to guide the conversation and asked about things that interested him.

However, Lu Jiu has always avoided the capital and seems unwilling to mention the people and things in the capital at all.

Qin Xiang naturally knew what he was doing, but she did not expect that Princess Yaoxiang would be so lethal to Lu Jiu, and even now Lu Jiu is still avoiding her.

Moreover, Qin Xi found that Lu Jiu had become much calmer. In the past, she always liked colorful clothes like a peacock, but now she only wore a navy blue plain satin shirt. Even the sandalwood fan that was always with him in the winter when I first met him has disappeared. Now that it is hot summer, it stands to reason that it is time to use the fan to bring coolness.

Out of curiosity, Qin Xiang glanced at Lu Jiu twice more, but Huang happened to see her.

Huang didn't speak much during the whole process and didn't eat very much. Because of her pregnancy, Huang's face still had some spots and she had put on some weight. She actually looked more blessed.

However, maybe Huang didn't think so, especially when she saw Qin Xiang, she felt particularly uncomfortable.

There is no doubt that Qin Xiang is beautiful, but Qin Xiang never pays attention to this. It was as if she didn't care at all, which made Huang even more jealous.

After the meal, Lu Jiu didn't stay long and left with Huang.

Qin Xiang and Mrs. Lu moved to the flower hall next door to have tea and chat.

Qin Xiang asked how long it would take for Huang to have a baby, and Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "It's still more than a month away!" Mrs. Lu had always hoped that Lu Jiuzheng would have a biological child, and now that she had a child, Qin Xiang was also happy for Mrs. Lu.

However, there was not much excitement on Mrs. Lu's face.

She truly regarded Qin Xiang as her daughter, and she could only talk to Qin Xiang about what was in her heart.

"Since Lu Jiu came back from the capital, he has changed. He has become taciturn and only likes to wear plain colors. He also doesn't go to the Hualou Restaurant that he loved most in the past, unless he has to socialize. "

As a mother, she is not happy that her son is stable and growing up. On the contrary, she is more worried about whether something has happened to her son, whether he has encountered a crisis that cannot be solved?
"In comparison, I prefer him to live heartlessly, alas!" Mrs. Lu sighed. In this case, she could only tell Qin Xiang. If outsiders knew about it, they would probably laugh at them. The family tradition is out of whack.

Qin Xiang thought about it and agreed, saying, "If it's Lu'er, I just wish him safety and success!"

After being silent for a while, Mrs. Lu seemed to start talking, and then said: "My daughter-in-law, Mrs. Huang, is the same. At that time, Lu Jiu was not willing to marry her, and after he got married, he didn't pay much attention to her. At that time, she was very obedient. But later Lu Jiu calmed down and treated her wholeheartedly, but she became suspicious all the time and kept a close eye on Lu Jiu."

Qin Xian smiled: "That's how it is between husband and wife. It's just fun between husband and wife. Godmother, don't worry about other people's husband and wife affairs. You, just take good care of your body and bones, and wait until you have grandchildren." "

Mrs. Lu's lips curled up, she wanted to smile but couldn't. She held Qin Xiang's hand sideways and said, "She is pregnant, and I have never cared about their husband and wife's affairs. I only focus on taking care of her food and daily life." .”

"But she came to me and said that she would give the eldest maid as a dowry to Lu Jiu as his wife. She also said that if the eldest maid gets pregnant, she will be her aunt in the future."

"I thought that this was a matter between their husband and wife, and it was not easy for my mother-in-law to interfere, so I said she could make up her own mind."

"But she said that Lu Jiu didn't want her, and she was very distressed. She didn't know if Lu Jiu looked down on her maid, and she wanted me to help ask and make a match."

Qin Xiang was noncommittal about this. This was a common practice for wealthy families, especially a romantic man like Lu Jiu. Of course, he couldn't bear loneliness. Of course, Qin Xiang would not let Xiao Chenyu enjoy such blessings.

"At first, I advised her that she didn't need to do this. I'm just not generous. What's the point?" Mrs. Lu obviously didn't agree with her daughter-in-law's approach and shook her head.

However, the subsequent development made Qin Xiang a little stunned.

After Huang became pregnant, she seemed to be a different person and became very stubborn.

She originally proposed to help the maid, but when Lu Jiu refused and her mother-in-law did not agree to help, she fell into a kind of morbid madness and wanted Lu Jiu to sleep with her maid.

Later, she drugged Lu Jiu's wine and finally let Lu Jiu sleep with the maid, but she shed tears all night.

The next day, when she had fetal movement, Lu Jiu didn't care about being angry and asked her doctor first, and then the matter was revealed.

The maid in the common room fell asleep once, so it was natural for her to serve Lu Jiu at night.

Huang couldn't bear it anymore. After all, Lu Jiu's nickname used to be outside and she couldn't see it. Now, it's next door, just separated by a wall. No matter how much you pay attention, some movement will come through.

"If it's just jealousy, that's fine, but" Mrs. Lu sighed heavily, and her eyes became a little moist.

Qin Xiang's heart also skipped a beat, thinking to herself, the matter might be more than that simple!
Sure enough, after Mrs. Lu adjusted her mood, she continued: "Although our family is relatively strong externally, we don't have many rules and have always been tolerant towards our family members."
