The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 324 Tired (2)
Now Zhao Jing has calmly accepted this moment, she just turned around and said to Xu Si'an: "A few days ago, I sent someone to He's house to see Mrs. He, she is now a month old, and she is already bedridden. Well, I heard the news from my mother-in-law that she came back. I'm afraid Miss Qi is going to live in our parents. I thought she is old enough, or we can find a place for her now that Mrs. He is still the governor. Is it okay if you get married?"

She raised her head and glanced at Xu Si'an quietly, and seeing that he had no objection, she continued, "It's just that it's difficult for Miss Qi to marry a good man. Do you have any subordinates who are motivated and willing to endure hardships? Why don't you find them?" Come here, is it good for us to look at each other?"

Hearing what Zhao Jing said, Xu Si'an lowered his head and frowned for a moment, then raised his head: "All the men of the Qi family have died on the battlefield. I don't think she is willing to marry a general. If not, you can inquire about it." We subsidize her a dowry for a few farming and studying families in the suburbs of Beijing, so that she can live comfortably."

It makes sense for Zhao Jing to think about it carefully. People who practice martial arts have their heads tied to the waist of their trousers after all. Qi Xinrui may not be willing to marry him.What's more, even if you are married in the past, a man's age is the time to make contributions, so he may not have so much time to spend with his new wife.

"Then I will go to He's house in a few days and discuss it with Mrs. He."

In the Ziwei Garden, Qi Xinrui's red eye circles from crying haven't subsided yet.What happened today was really the most wronged she had endured in the past ten years.Seeing her like that, Mama Zhong and Liu Sui looked at each other, and in the end Mama Zhong couldn't help but said, "What's the matter, girl? Could it be that someone bullied you? Even if someone bullied the girl, didn't Mrs. Hou help you?" Can't you follow the girl?"

How could Qi Xinrui have the face to talk about those things again, seeing that she was still wearing the same rose red shirt, she got up from the bed in despair, took off her clothes, and continued to cry on the bed.

"Throw away this dress!" Qi Xinrui covered herself in the brocade quilt and said, Liu Sui on the other side hurriedly said: "Why do you want to throw away this dress, my aunt made it for you not long ago!"

Mother Zhong, who was on the side, understood a little bit after hearing these words, and said to the girl with a smile on her face: "What's wrong with the girl? The girl is dressed so grandly today, she must be gorgeous, so it's hard to return the favor." Did someone say that the girl is not good-looking?"

"Mother Zhong..." Qi Xinrui became even more sad after hearing this. In terms of appearance, she is not as bad as Lu Xinyue, but in terms of family background...she is just an orphan.As the little maid said, what is the difference between me and them?

"Girl, don't cry. If the girl is wronged, it will be fine if she doesn't go to such occasions in the future. Poor our girl who has no parents since she was a child, so she is bullied by others like this."

Mother Zhong's words sounded like she was trying to persuade Qi Xinrui, but after hearing this, Qi Xinrui became even more sad.Mama Zhong patted her on the back and said, "Good girl, don't cry, it hurts me so much. What can we do now that we are living under the fence?"

Liu Sui at the side frowned after hearing this, and couldn't help but said: "Mom, please stop saying a few words, the girl is sad, are you trying to persuade her, or are you provoking her, it's finally gone Cried……"

After hearing this, Mother Zhong turned her head and stared at Liu Sui, and said: "You heartless girl, what do you know, the girl hasn't had dinner yet, go to the kitchen and see what else is there to eat. !"

After listening to the order, Liu Sui went outside, and happened to meet a maid from Songhe Hall who came to deliver snacks to Qi Xinrui, so she took it in with a smile.She was holding the curtain and was about to go in, but she heard Zhong's mother say to Qi Xinrui: "Actually, my aunt sent someone to visit the girl a few days ago, and brought a few words with her. The old slave didn't dare to tell the girl, but now the girl has suffered." If there is no one who can support such grievances, what will happen in the future?"

When Qi Xinrui heard this, her crying gradually subsided, she raised her head and asked Mother Zhong, "What did Eldest Sister say?"

Mama Zhong frowned, with a hesitant expression, she gritted her teeth and said, "My aunt said that she is not in good health, and I don't know if she can last until this baby lands safely. The hands are pitiful, let the girl think of a way, even if she is a child in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, it is worse than being ruined by the uncle."

After these words, Qi Xinrui's face changed suddenly, and she almost couldn't support her body. She took Mother Zhong's hand and asked, "Mom, elder sister wouldn't say that. Mom, you must be lying to me, right?"

"Girl..." Mother Zhong's face became more and more serious, she sat on the edge of the bed, took Qi Xinrui's hand and said, "Girl, you have also seen that you are an orphan now, and when you go out, you dress up What's the use of standing out? Wasn't she being bullied? The Marquis of Wu'an was just a court lady, but now that she's a Marquis, who would dare to show her any disdain? My aunt's thoughts are all for the girl's consideration!"

Qi Xinrui looked blankly at Mother Zhong, and slowly let go of her fingers grabbing her sleeve, leaning against the head of the bed slumped and said, "Did you think about it early in the morning? You wanted me to be a concubine for Marquis Wu'an early in the morning." Come?"

Mother Zhong frowned, noncommittal, but continued: "Why do you say that, girl, my aunt still loves you, she has such thoughts, and it is also an expedient measure, girl already understands her, she has taken you to congratulate her all these years It's not easy at home..."

Before Mama Zhong finished speaking, Qi Xinrui suddenly stood up from the bed, she walked a few steps towards the dressing table with a wobbly body, and sat down slowly, a picture was reflected in the bronze mirror in front of the stage. With haggard cheeks, she looked at herself in the mirror with red and swollen eyes, and said leisurely: "What else did elder sister say?"

Mama Zhong continued: "My aunt also said that she originally wanted to mention this matter to Mrs. Xu herself, but she was afraid that the old lady would get angry and this matter would not be possible, so she asked the old slave to plan for the girl's life. Make cooked rice from uncooked rice, the Hou Mansion will not be able to rely on it!"
