Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 9 The Eye of Memory (1)
These two must be Lin's two daughters, Qiu Mingyu and Qiu Minglan.

If Lin Yufang did not agree with Shen's mother and son entering Qiu's house, she knew that Qiu Zhongqing had always been thinking about Shen's, and could win his heart outside, but if she welcomed him back home, she might not be able to how is it.She naturally knew that Qiu Zhongqing had secretly had sex with that bitch of the Shen family and gave birth to two scumbags all these years. If it hadn't been for the oppression of the old ancestors back then, Qiu Zhongqing would have brought back the mother and son of the Shen family long ago.The old ancestor passed away a year ago, Qiu Zhongqing had no checks and balances, and suddenly became rampant.In the past, the old master Gu Nianqiu's family has a century-old family tradition, and he didn't want to get too stiff with Lin Taishi, who was an official in the same dynasty, so he didn't support Qiu Zhongqing in welcoming the Shen family into the mansion.But it's different now. Although Lin Yufang came from the Grand Master's Mansion, she has been married into the Qiu family for more than ten years, but she has not added any children to the Qiu family so far.Although Shen is an outsider, she gave birth to Qiu Zhongqing's only son.Invisibly, Old Master Qiu naturally changed his view of Shen.In addition, the old matriarch kept nagging in his ear how gentle and submissive Shen was, how kind and courteous she was.More than ten years ago, if Shen and her mother hadn't rescued her, she might have died in Yangzhou.

In this way, Old Master Qiu also tacitly agreed to Qiu Zhongqing's taking back the Shen family.

But Lin Yufang is not happy anymore. Why, she is Qiu Zhongqing's first wife, the second daughter of the dignified Grand Master's Mansion, why should a criminal minister's daughter steal her husband's favor?It's just that the old man Qiu spoke, and she didn't dare to disobey.The old ancestor passed away, and the old man Qiu is the biggest in this mansion.No matter how arrogant she was, she didn't dare to pluck the whiskers from the tiger's head, so she gritted her teeth and endured it.Unexpectedly, Qiu Zhongqing actually proposed Shen's charming hoof as a good concubine.

Hmph, isn't it just a little bit of fighting spirit, there's nothing to be proud of.But having said that, not having a son has always been a pain in her heart.The old matriarch doesn't want to see her, and keeps talking about her children, even if she is unwilling, there is nothing she can do.Well, she endured.A good concubine, hmph, is just a concubine who can't stand on the stage.When you arrive at the Qiu Mansion, put it under your nose, it will be easier to clean up.

However, I heard that Qiu Zhongqing actually went to pick up that bitch back to Beijing in person.Lin's anger, which had been suffocated for a long time, was even higher, and he had already smashed those antique jade objects in his room.Later, the old lady sent someone to ask her to drink Shen Shijing's tea in person.Okay, let's have some tea, right?She wanted to see how charming this Shen Shi was, and she could win Qiu Zhongqing's soul away.

Sure enough, seeing this, she couldn't help being jealous and resentful.Now that the old matriarch is so gentle and tolerant towards her, her love is beyond words, and Lin Shi is even more angry.

At this time, the old man spoke.

"Since you have entered Qiu's house, go and toast your wife with a cup of tea."

"Yes." Shen replied in a low voice.

The old matriarch asked the servant girl to bring the tray over, and Shen took a cup of tea and knelt down in front of Lin.

"Madam, please drink tea."

Lin stared at her, his eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, but he still refused to reach out to catch her.The old lady glanced at her, "My daughter-in-law looks bad, but is she sick?"

Qiu Mingyue raised her eyebrows, and a smile flashed in her eyes.The old matriarch really didn't want to see Mrs. Lin, so she didn't give her face in front of so many people.No need to look, she can already guess how ugly Lin's expression is at the moment.

Lin stirred the veil in her hand, her eyes became more sinister.

The old matriarch frowned, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by a gentle, flattering voice.

"Mother, a maid served tea to my sister-in-law a few days ago. The tea was too hot and she accidentally burned her hand. Maybe she hasn't recovered yet..."

Qiu Mingyue looked up, and saw that the woman who was speaking was wearing a breasted cloud gauze double-breasted shirt, a sky-green satin dress with weeping willows and dark flowers, her face was pretty, and she was kind and timid.This person must be the wife of Qiu Zhongwen, the third son of the Qiu family, and also his third aunt, Lu Shi.In the compound of a wealthy family, such a weak temperament will only be bullied.

The old matriarch glanced at her and hummed lightly.

"So, let's not drink this tea today." Her voice was flat, but what she said made Lin even more angry.

"My daughter-in-law has always been tolerant. Mrs. Chen gave birth to children for my Qiu family. It is really not easy to raise a pair of children by myself after so many years of hard work." She looked at Mrs. Chen with warm eyes.

"The old man and I drank your tea today, you are from my Qiu family..."

"No, I don't agree." Lin couldn't help screaming anymore, Qiu Minglan couldn't stop her, so she could only secretly annoy her mother for being impulsive.

It was Qiu Mingyue who looked at Qiu Minglan meaningfully.Compared to the insolent Lin, this Qiu Minglan is quite a character.

When Lin shi drank, even the old man frowned.The old lady's eyes were slightly cold, but she remained calm.

"Mother, the law says that a concubine must serve tea to the principal room before entering the house, otherwise she will not be considered a concubine." And relying on the favor of the ancestors, no one dared to say anything in the Qiu Mansion.Today, the old lady of the Qiu family, the old lady, and others have repeatedly provoked her, how can she bear it?Shen Shi wanted to become Qiu Zhongqing's concubine without offering her tea, hmph, delusional.

The old lady snorted lightly, and gently put down the lid of the cup.

"Didn't you hurt your hand? Still have the strength to serve tea?" These words really slapped Lin's face in front of everyone.

Qiu Zhongqing kept silent, and he also knew that his new wife had a bad temper.Today she took Shen Shi back to the mansion by herself, she must be resentful in her heart.So I wanted to get things done early so that there would be no further disturbances.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lin is an extremely stupid person, and repeatedly offended his mother, his complexion is extremely ugly.Especially thinking that the whole family is here, I feel even more ashamed, so I secretly glared at her and whispered a warning.

"Stop messing around here. It won't do you any good if you offend your parents."

Lin's chest was burning with anger at the moment, and she couldn't care less about other things. She raised her head and poked her neck and said, "Thank you mother for your concern. Although my daughter-in-law's hand is hurt, it's okay to take a cup of tea." Looking coldly at Shen Shi who was kneeling on the ground holding the teacup softly, a sneer flashed across his eyes.

"Sister Shen is really beautiful, no wonder the master always misses her. Today I can see her true colors."

Shen's face turned pale when she heard that, Lin's words were witty, mocking her for being a sexist, why couldn't she understand?But now that she was under the eaves, she had no choice but to lower her head and move the teacup one point higher.

"I respectfully invite my wife to drink tea."

Qiu Mingyue tried her best to restrain the anger in her heart. She will teach Lin to repay the shame today a hundred times in the future.

Lin took the tea coldly, and suddenly let go.
