The best farmhouse

Chapter 257

In the empty yard, only Mrs. Qin was planting flower branches in the yard, and the green radish, which had been waiting on the sidelines, was nowhere to be seen.

see such a situation.Zhao Qingfeng felt that something was wrong.

"Mother, where's the servant girl in the mansion?"

Seeing Zhao Qingfeng coming back, Qin's expression was calm.

"It's all sold."

"sold?"

Zhao Qingfeng was surprised.

He has only been away for a few days, and the family has become like this.

Qin put down the scissors in his hand and looked at Zhao Qingfeng, then sighed before speaking.

"You still remember how Qingfeng and our family got rich and how we got to where we are today!"

Zhao Qingfeng didn't understand why Qin Shi said this at all.

But still nodded: "I remember all of them."

Mrs. Qin then sighed again: "At the beginning of our family, Mrs. Chen married you, but now you have broken your own promise. These mothers have always disagreed. The two aunts are restless. You are right. Like Mrs. Chen, they bully Mrs. Chen even more recklessly, so that Mrs. Chen can only get quiet by hiding in her own yard, I don't believe you don't know about this."

Zhao Qingfeng lowered his head with some guilt, he knew all this, but kept turning a blind eye.

Qin continued: "When encountering such a thing, who doesn't have a pimple in their hearts? It was because you were sorry for Chen, but in the end you felt that Chen was ignorant. You couldn't do it at the beginning, so why did you promise?"

"There is also the servant girl in this mansion. My every move is being watched by others. I feel that life like this is aggrieved! I am not as beautiful as the two aunts. I have to be watched by them for everything I do. , do you think I feel better?"

Zhao Qingfeng didn't know these things, and Zhao Qingfeng looked at Qin Shi in surprise.

"Mom, is what you said true?"

Qin smiled bitterly: "Of course it's true. All the maids in the mansion were sold by your sister. Now your sister has gone to Yazi to buy maids."

Zhao Qingfeng was very surprised when he heard Zhao Canniang came: "What? My sister is here."

Qin nodded: "Your sister has been here for two days."

Zhao Qingfeng didn't know why he felt a little guilty at this moment.

Qin didn't let go of the guilt in Zhao Qingfeng's eyes.

"Don't be guilty, you don't know what your sister is doing. Those two aunts are too arrogant. This time Chen Zhongqiu is here again. You said that Chen Zhongqiu saw such a situation, can he not feel sorry for his sister? ?”

Zhao Qingfeng didn't know what to say for a moment.

What he said to the Chen family at the beginning were all said in front of the Chen family.

Now that Chen Zhongqiu came to see such a situation, he would definitely not stand by and watch. No matter whether Zhao Canniang was Mrs. Chen or her sister, she should take care of this matter.

"Mom, I know what to do. In fact, I know that I am sorry for Mrs. Chen, but... let me explain something to my sister!"

Zhao Qingfeng also has Zhao Qingfeng's difficulties.

It took Zhao Canniang about an hour to go to Yazi's place, and when she came back, Zhao Canniang brought back more than [-] maids and servants.

Each one was carefully selected by Zhao Canniang.

Xiaoqin and Mo'er will be handed over to Xiaoqin and Mo'er to arrange the maidservants when they come back.

Zhao Canniang returned to Qin's courtyard, but saw Chen, Qin and Zhao Qingfeng sitting together.

Mrs. Chen has lost weight recently, Zhao Qingfeng didn't know that he didn't enter Chen's yard before, this time Mrs. Qin called Mrs. Chen, Zhao Qingfeng saw it, and felt very guilty.

After saying a lot of things to make Mrs. Chen forgive, Mrs. Chen also wanted to let go, and the two of them were reconciled.

As soon as Zhao Canniang entered the room, Zhao Qingfeng stood up.

"Channiang, let's go out and talk!"

Zhao Qingfeng was still guilty.

Zhao Canniang nodded and followed Zhao Qingfeng to the garden.

Zhao Canniang didn't speak first, but Zhao Qingfeng couldn't help but said, "I'm sorry, Canniang."

Zhao Canniang smiled helplessly: "You should say sorry to me."

Zhao Qingfeng lowered his head.

"Brother, I think you must have difficulties, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Zhao Qingfeng looked at Zhao Canniang in surprise, never expecting Zhao Canniang to say such a thing.

With a sigh, Zhao Qingfeng said: "Actually, it's my vanity that's causing trouble. You also know that if the man is from a better-off family, that man doesn't have three wives and four concubines. I can be regarded as a respectable person now. People in the business know that your sister-in-law is the only one in my family and laugh at me behind my back."

Zhao Canniang didn't speak, just looked at Zhao Qingfeng.

Zhao Qingfeng continued: "It was also a chance. Aunt Yan's elder brother is one of my men. He has been helping me for a year or two. That day when his son was full moon, I went there and got drunk and found out that I was with Yan. Auntie was lying together. At that time, Auntie Yan was crying so much that she disturbed her brother. Auntie Yan had a good marriage, but I ruined it like this. I must be responsible for others! So I carried Auntie Yan into the yard .”

"You didn't tell your mother about this matter, and you didn't discuss it with your sister-in-law, did you?"

Zhao Canniang asked.

Zhao Qingfeng nodded: "There is no discussion, the reason why Aunt Qing entered the mansion is similar, I accidentally bumped into Aunt Qing taking a bath, and then..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Canniang touched her forehead with her hand: "Brother, don't you think there is something wrong there?"

These two were clearly framed on purpose!

Zhao Qingfeng didn't know where.

"I know they used tricks to frame them, but after getting to know them slowly, I think they are very nice, caring and sensible."

Zhao Canniang sneered unexpectedly at this time: "Sensible? Your sensible is that they treat you well in the room? Doing those things behind the scenes, forcing the sister-in-law to dare not go out, and making the mother want to leave the house? Brother, this Is that what you said was sensible and considerate?"

Zhao Qingfeng was speechless.

"Tell me how to deal with the next thing!" Zhao Qingfeng asked.

Zhao Canniang shook her head: "This matter is your matter, you can handle it as you say, and I don't know if you ask me."

Zhao Qingfeng sighed.

Zhao Canniang continued: "I just cleared out the maids in this mansion so that my mother and sister-in-law can be the masters of the Zhao mansion. As for the two aunts, you can do whatever you want."

Zhao Qingfeng nodded: "My sister is my fault."

Zhao Canniang looked at Zhao Qingfeng: "I told you before Anniang, if you can't do it, don't promise, you will only make others feel more sad, sister-in-law is a good woman, don't wait until everything is irreparable I regret it."

Zhao Qingfeng nodded.

"I know how to deal with this matter. I definitely can't send it away. After all, I have indeed ruined his innocence. Let's stay in the mansion. As long as I don't make trouble, I can tolerate it."

Zhao Canniang nodded.

Zhao Qingfeng and Zhao Canniang returned to Qin's courtyard.

Chen Zhongqiu brought the child back earlier today.

It was probably because the three of them had gone through Yucheng once, and they had finished watching all the strange things, so they came back early.

As soon as he entered Qin's courtyard, Zhao Qingfeng saw Le'er and Xian'er.

Le'er was young and didn't remember much, but Xian'er threw herself into Zhao Qingfeng's arms.

"uncle."

Xianer looked happy.

Zhao Qingfeng wrapped up Xian'er, and hugged Le'er beside him, his face was full of joy.

"Le'er is called Uncle."

Zhao Qingfeng was in a great mood teasing the child.

Le'er smiled slightly and called, "Uncle."

Zhao Qingfeng nodded and smiled happily.

"Le'er is so good. Uncle didn't come back today to buy food. Wait until tomorrow uncle will take you out to play."

Le'er shook her head directly and said seriously: "Uncle is busy with business, Daddy took us to play, and even painted sugar paintings."

Zhao Canniang was worried that Zhao Qingfeng would be tired from holding the two children, so she stretched out her hand and hugged Le'er in her arms.

"Go inside and talk."

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she went in with the child in her arms.

Chen Zhongqiu's complexion was not good, he glanced at Zhao Qingfeng and entered the room.

The room is full of her own people, because there is no maidservant for the time being, so Zhao Canniang pours the tea by herself.

Chen Zhongqiu on the side glanced at the Chen family, and then looked at Zhao Qingfeng: "How did you promise my sister before? I should have married my sister to you if I knew that what you said was not a promise. It makes my sister unhappy every day, and this is all a good thing you did."

Zhao Canniang did not speak to Chen and Qin.

Zhao Qingfeng stood up with some guilt, and apologized: "I was wrong, I was sorry for my wife, I won't say anything about the future, I will do it to make you believe it."

Chen Zhongqiu originally wanted to frighten Zhao Qingfeng, and he didn't really intend to complain, after all, Zhao Qingfeng is not bad now.

"I don't want to talk to you about anything else. If you feel sorry for my sister, I'll take her back to Baiyun County and take the child with me."

Zhao Qingfeng kept smiling.

Zhao Canniang shook her head helplessly: "Brother, we may stay here for a few more days, let's not talk about Zhong Qiu, we will do it when the time comes."

Zhao Qingfeng actually cared most about Qin and Zhao Canniang, especially Zhao Canniang's thoughts.After all these years, without Zhao Canniang, he would not be where he is today.

One must know how to repay kindness, and Zhao Qingfeng understands this principle very well.

"Chan Niang, I know."

Zhao Canniang stood up, and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about these unhappy things, brother, how about the two of us cooking in person tonight, mother hasn't eaten the food we cooked for a long time."

Zhao Qingfeng let out a long breath and nodded, "I'll make whatever you want to eat."

Zhao Canniang thought for a while and said, "I actually kind of miss the corn grits we used to eat, how about we cook this tonight?"

When I just came here before, Zhao Canniang ate corn grits and felt sick, thinking about it now, I really miss it.

After being reminded by Zhao Canniang, Zhao Qingfeng remembered that he hadn't eaten corn grits for a long time.

"Then we'll eat this at night, with corn grits as the staple food, and a few other dishes."

Zhao Canniang smiled and nodded, in a very good mood.

When Leer and Xianer heard that Zhao Canniang was going to cook by herself, they were so happy that they ran around the house.

Qin smiled and felt happy in her heart. The happiest thing in her life was raising two filial children.

In the kitchen, Chen Zhongqiu took the children to play next to the kitchen. Le'er had never been to the kitchen before, so she was curious about everything she saw at this moment.

Zhao Canniang lit the fire, and Zhao Qingfeng was busy behind the stove.

From time to time, Chen Zhongqiu would go into the kitchen to fan Zhao Canniang, and the happy appearance made Zhao Canniang envious when she recalled it later.

Xiaoqin, Mo'er and the others have to arrange for the maids to do things, and the maids will come to cook after Zhao Canniang and the others cook dinner.

Plates of dishes here were brought to Qin's room.

Aunt Yan and Aunt Qing didn't know Zhao Qingfeng was back until late at night.

No one tipped off the news, so the news naturally spread unhappily.

As soon as Aunt Qing and Aunt Yan entered Qin's courtyard, they began to howl. The sound was so earth-shattering that people who didn't know it really thought something big happened.

Zhao Canniang sneered and continued to set her chopsticks.

Chen's expression was also indifferent.

Le'er and Xian'er looked outside strangely.

"Why are people outside Dad crying so much? Are they beaten?"

In Le'er's heart, only when she was disobedient and making trouble, Zhao Canniang would beat her, and she would cry so hard.

Zhao Canniang smiled slightly, shook her head and said, "No, Le'er is going to play with grandma."

Zhao Qingfeng frowned, the two children are here, Aunt Yan and Aunt Qing are still like this, it is really disgusting.

Zhao Qingfeng has already walked out the door.Come to the yard.

"Why are you crying? Don't you know you have a child?"

Zhao Qingfeng said angrily.

After being yelled at by Zhao Qingfeng, Aunt Qing and Aunt Yan really shut up immediately.

"We knew it was wrong."

Zhao Qingfeng snorted coldly and said, "Tell me, why are you crying?"

Zhao Canniang stood not far away and watched, Aunt Yan and Aunt Qing thought, no matter how much Zhao Qingfeng protected Zhao Canniang, he would not do anything to them.

Aunt Yan stretched out her hand and gently pushed Aunt Qing's back, and Aunt Qing immediately sobbed and said, "Sir, you must decide for us."

Zhao Qingfeng frowned and looked at the two of them.

"Master, what master?"

Aunt Yan immediately said: "The maids around us were all sold by my sister, and she bullied us."

Isn't the sister that Aunt Yan is talking about is Zhao Canniang?

Zhao Canniang in the distance stood happily under the eaves and watched.

Neither speak nor defend.

Zhao Qingfeng frowned even tighter, and looked at Aunt Yan beside him.

Perhaps it was because the light at night was not very good, but Aunt Yan didn't notice the flickering anger in Zhao Qingfeng's eyes.

Aunt Yan looked pitiful in her clothes, and said in a low voice: "The thing is like this, and I don't know what happened to my sister? She sold our maid directly, and deducted half a year's monthly salary from us. We have to say no." Come on, Mr., you have to be the master for us. If there is a younger sister who is in charge of the elder brother's house, even if there is any misunderstanding and conflict between us, we can talk about it after closing the door, but the younger sister is a married woman. ... Yanniang feels wronged."

After Aunt Yan finished speaking, she squeezed out two tears from her eyes.

Chen Zhongqiu also came out at this time, stood beside Zhao Canniang and looked at Aunt Yan who was not far away, sneered and entered the room.

Zhao Qingfeng's face became darker and darker, and he said word by word: "There are certain words and rules, I only say once, you are concubines, you should have the duties of concubines, don't be unscrupulous just because I treat you well, if in the future If you dare to offend Madam again, pack your bags and leave."

Aunt Qing and Aunt Yan cried even harder.

They didn't expect Zhao Qingfeng to come forward to protect Chen's this time, which was something they didn't do before.

Zhao Qingfeng paused for a moment, then continued: "There is another thing that you have to understand clearly. If you dare to refute my mother's words, you will be punished by the family rules yourself. There is another thing that I want you to remember for the rest of your life. "

When Zhao Qingfeng said this, his tone was very severe.

Aunt Qing and Aunt Yan looked at Zhao Qingfeng in confusion, but Zhao Qingfeng spoke seriously.

"My sister can take care of things in my room. Her attitude is my attitude. I don't care what other people do, but my sister can do whatever she wants. If she is willing to divorce you and send you out, I don't have the slightest opinion either."

As soon as Zhao Qingfeng's words came out, Aunt Yan and Aunt Qing stopped crying.

Did they hear correctly?
Zhao Qingfeng actually indulged Zhao Canniang like this.

"Why Xianggong, is it because we are not good?"

Aunt Yan asked a little unwillingly.

Aunt Qing also looked pitiful to me.

Zhao Qingfeng raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the two of them and said coldly, "Because in my heart, except for my mother, no one is more important than my sister."

Anyone who is familiar with Zhao Qingfeng knows how much Zhao Qingfeng loves Zhao Canniang.

Aunt Qing and Aunt Yan were still a little unwilling to hear this.

"Sister, we know we were wrong!" Aunt Yan said repentantly.

Just now, Aunt Yan saw Zhao Qingfeng's dark face.

At this time, Zhao Canniang came down suddenly and said, "I've finished handling the matters at Brother's house for you. Tomorrow will be business matters. Don't say I'm cruel."

More than half of Zhao Qingfeng's business has Zhao Canniang's hard work in it.

Zhao Canniang couldn't bear to see her business ruined by a mob like this.

Although she didn't understand why Zhao Qingfeng wanted to use such a person, Zhao Canniang felt that since she had begun to control her, she had to control it to the end.

Zhao Qingfeng nodded, not feeling uncomfortable or unhappy at all.

"Canniang, you can do whatever you want. I plan to take your sister-in-law, Xuan'er and the others out for a walk these few days."

Zhao Canniang smiled with satisfaction when she heard this.

Aunt Qing on the side was so angry that she pulled the handkerchief in her hand desperately, feeling very uncomfortable.

Aunt Qing and Aunt Yan were the same at this time, and they both hated Zhao Canniang in their hearts.

It can be seen that what Zhao Qingfeng said just now is not a little false.

Zhao Canniang's position in Zhao Qingfeng's heart now seems to be higher than Qin's position in Zhao Qingfeng's heart.

In fact, Zhao Qingfeng was just grateful.

If it weren't for Zhao Canniang, he would still be a mud leg in the Zhuangzi, and he might not have enough food and clothing every day. Zhao Canniang's kindness to him could be repaid more than a little.

The most important thing is that Zhao Canniang did this for his own good, firstly to keep his inner house safe, and secondly to keep the business from being damaged.
