I steamed buns for the general

Chapter 31

Qin Jin didn't have a good impression of Xie Yuanzhou. When the maid came to invite him, he wanted to refuse, but thinking about Zhijin, he got up after thinking about it, changed his clothes and walked forward.

The three of them exchanged cups and glasses, and said insincere words, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves for a while.Qin Jin drank a glass of wine, looked up and caught a glimpse of a light green dress entering the yard, suddenly made up his mind, and beckoned: "Zhijin, hurry up, where are the steamed buns? There are guests here today, why don't you steam some more."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Yuanzhou paused the hand holding the wine glass, and turned his head to look in surprise, only to see a girl of twelve or thirteen years old wearing a light green embroidered beanie, carrying a plate, but there was no hair on her head.Looking at that face again, Xie Yuanzhou only felt his head bang and couldn't think of anything else.

Why is this kid here?Shouldn't she be dead already?His heart was suddenly turbulent, and countless thoughts aroused, and these were naturally noticed by Qin Jin.

When he thought about this, Zhijin had already come in, and instead of looking at the weirdness of the three people at the banquet, he lowered his eyebrows and put down the plate, "General, if it's not enough, Zhijin can steam some more." Although Zhijin didn't understand why the general Eating the steamed buns she made, but I have nowhere to go, so I can only do this.

Xie Yuanzhou was sweating profusely on his forehead, and he didn't dare to look up. The Jiang family and Qin Yang Qinjin had seen their own daughters and Zhihang at the palace banquet that day, and now this girl is six points similar to Qiao's. Zhihang is also three points similar, as well as the name, which is clearly the child from more than ten years ago.

Qin Yang and Qin Jin naturally saw his gaffe, but Qin Yang didn't pay much attention to Xie Zhihang that night, so he just wondered why Xie Yuanzhou lost his composure.

But Qin Jin could see it clearly, which further confirmed his and Jiang's conjecture.I really don't know that this Xie family is so vicious, even the newborn baby is not spared. If there is any defect, it can be understood, but it is clearly a healthy child.

Qin Jin sighed secretly in his heart, but Xie Yuanzhou wished he could leave here as soon as possible. If the events of the year were publicized, he would be ashamed.

"No, you can wait here." Qin Jin glanced at Xie Yuanzhou as he said, and sure enough, because of his words, he became more nervous, his face turned pale, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

Zhijin didn't know, so in the past, Qin Jin just asked her to steam steamed buns, and she really didn't do the work that a girl should do.After being raised in the mansion these days, her complexion has improved, and even the hair on the top of her head has grown a lot.She raised her head slightly and looked at Qin Jin in surprise, but didn't react for a while.

Qin Yang frowned a little, and urged: "Hurry up and fill Master Xie with wine."

"Yes." Zhijin bit her lip and stepped forward to pick up the flagon to fill Xie Yuanzhou. Xie Yuanzhou stared at Zhijin for a moment, which made her feel inexplicable pressure, and felt that this person was so ignorant.

Qin Yang snorted coldly in his heart, this Xie Yuanzhou looks pious, but in fact he is also a pervert, it's just that such a big child has given birth to filth, this is in the Qin family, if it is in the Xie mansion, this little girl probably will not end well .

"Go down." Qin Jin hooked his lips and drank a glass of wine, turned around with a faint smile on his face, and said to Xie Yuanzhou, "Thank you, sir."

Xie Yuanzhou consciously lost his composure, and smiled: "This girl in the house looks good, like an old friend."

"Oh?" Qin Yang smiled, "Could it be like Mrs. Xie?"

What he said was just a joke. It is rumored that Mrs. Xie is weak and bedridden all year round, and everything in the house is in charge of the aunt. It seems that there is no reason for the rumors that Xie Yuanzhou favored his concubine and killed his wife.

Xie Yuanzhou's face froze, and he couldn't maintain the smile on his face, he sank, and said for a while, "Oh, it's really similar."

He didn't say any more, shook his head and picked up the glass, "Let's drink."

Qin Yang was also surprised. From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of Qin Jin looking at Xie Yuanzhou with an inquiring expression, and his doubts became even worse.

"My nephew hasn't married yet but has someone he likes?" Xie Yuanzhou changed the subject and returned to today's goal.

Qin Jin didn't like to talk and laugh, and just nodded when he heard the words: "There is no suitable candidate yet."

Xie Yuanzhou's eyes lit up, "Oh? Hehe, my nephew is so outstanding, there must be many boudoir daughters who are attracted to you."

"Lord Xie is really absurd." Qin Yang changed his address in a flash, making Xie Yuanzhou stagnate. Thinking about it today, it is impossible. It seems that he should find someone with status to talk about it.

The three of them ate their meal, Xie Yuanzhou hastily bid farewell and left.

Qin Yang looked at Qin Jin and asked doubtfully, "What do you think of today's events?"

Qin Jin glanced at him calmly, and asked back, "What do you think?"

"As for the marriage with Xie's family, even though the girl is a concubine, she still looks good." Qin Yang couldn't help being a little annoyed when he saw his son pretending to be stupid. He knew his son's temperament best, but he didn't know who he resembled.

"Let's procrastinate first." Qin Jin didn't agree or refuse, and left after leaving an ambiguous sentence.

Qin Yang blew his beard and stared angrily, this marriage... I really can't decide... I'm so sorry.

But Xie Yuanzhou was really in a cold sweat when he came out of Qin's house, he didn't care about other things, and hurried back to Xie's house in a sedan chair.Xie's family has a big business, before they can sit down to drink a cup of tea, Mrs. Zhao dressed up brightly and brought Xie Zhimian over.

As soon as he entered the room, he couldn't wait to ask: "How?"

In the final analysis, this marriage is their family's high-ranking. They don't look at their parents but only look at the two children. Qin Jin alone is a few blocks away from Yuanzhou. A concubine's daughter, although she is favored, what is her status?If he married the Qin family, he would naturally win over Qin Jin for the second prince. When the second prince takes over, he will not worry about not having a good life for himself.So Xie Yuanzhou attaches great importance to this marriage and wants to make it happen.

Seeing that his wife and daughter cared so much, Xie Yuanzhou didn't say anything about the fact that he went to Qin's house and didn't even say about the baby kiss 20 years ago, because he had another thing in his heart.

Looking up to see the anticipation on Xie Zhimian's face, he just sighed and said, "Zhimian go back first, I'll talk to your aunt about something."

"Daddy~~" Xie Zhimian looked at his father in disbelief.

Xie Yuanzhou felt a little irritable because of the girl he saw today, and he didn't know how to explain to his daughter that the marriage was not settled. Naturally, his mood was not much better.

Zhao's mind was exquisite and clear, she winked at Xie Zhimian, and then supported Xie Yuanzhou to comfort him: "Master, what's the matter?"

Xie Zhimian pouted in disappointment and left. Xie Yuanzhou sent out all the maids and wives, and when only the husband and wife were left in the room, he said, "Do you still remember what happened more than ten years ago?"

Mrs. Zhao was taken aback for a moment, not understanding why this matter would suddenly be brought up after returning from a good trip to the Qin residence, and asked suspiciously, "Why did the master suddenly think of this matter?"

He instructed Zhao to do the things back then, and he didn't go around the bush right now, saying: "Today I was at Qin's house, and I met a maid who looked quite similar to Zhihang, and her eyes were even more like Qiao's. Shi."

"Is there such a thing?" Mrs. Zhao was also taken aback when she heard this. Back then, she just handed over the child to Xue Momo, and Xue Momo was her dowry mother, so it was impossible for her to harm herself. There should be nothing wrong with handing over the child to Mother Xue."

Xie Yuanzhou frowned when he heard this, "Go and call Madam Xue to ask about it. Otherwise, it will be a trouble."

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she didn't dare to delay, so she raised the curtain and shouted, "Go and get Madam Xue."

The maid, Qiao Xing, promised to go quickly.Mother Xue is Zhao's dowry mother, she is a ruthless character, she is over 50 years old, and in the Xie Mansion, she is also someone who would not dare to offend her, but she still respects her own lady, Zhao, when she heard that Zhao was looking for her, Came in a hurry.

When Mother Xue heard the reason, she thought for a moment and said, "I threw the child into a mass grave that day. There were no wolves, tigers and leopards there at night, and it probably won't matter if it was eaten by wild dogs."

"Why didn't you strangle her at the beginning?" Zhao cried out, realizing that her voice was a little louder, and said, "You know that girl has come out again now."

"Ah." Madam Xue was also dumbfounded. Under such circumstances, can the child still live?

"Okay, you go down first." Xie Yuanzhou was irritated, he waved the person out, and added, "Don't tell the matter."

Nanny Xue nodded hurriedly, and walked out the door under the master's resentful gaze.

Mother Xue was a little aggrieved, she went out and Qiao Xing followed her with an apologetic smile, and then went to see her off, not noticing that a figure flashed into the next room.

Here Xie Yuanzhou sighed, held Zhao's hand and said: "When Qin Jin called someone, I heard it really, that girl is called Zhijin."

"Zhijin?" Mrs. Zhao opened her mouth wide in disbelief, "Isn't the child who was thrown away called Zhijin? The clothes he was wearing at that time still had his name embroidered on it. What should we do?"

The Zhao family was in a hurry, Xie Yuanzhou was also anxious, this girl is a disgrace to the Xie family, she should have died more than ten years ago, but she couldn't die in such an environment, she turned out to be a fatal one.

"And that girl's hair is very short, she looks like she has been an aunt for a long time. Don't let Mrs. Qiao know about this." Xie Yuanzhou instructed.

Mentioning Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Zhao sneered twice: "It's natural. I took the child away that day, and she hated me so much. Since I have already thrown away that evil, we must not tell her. We have to find a chance to get rid of her." That's good, if the Qiao family in the province knows about it and publicizes the matter, the Xie family will have no reputation."

Xie Yuanzhou naturally knew this truth, "It's just that it's really hard to deal with people in the general's mansion."

Mrs. Zhao sighed and frowned. She was quite happy for her daughter's marriage these days, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen.

Xie Zhihang, who was listening in the corner next door, couldn't close his mouth in surprise.Dare to feel this came out more than ten years ago.Could it be that the child who was thrown was his sister?
Are you still in the general's mansion now?
Xie Zhihang admitted that he was a little excited, he had never been so excited in the past ten years.Since he was a child, his parents didn't know him, his mother didn't love him, and his younger siblings bullied him. After ten years, he thought it should be like this in the future, but he didn't expect such a big event in the middle.

He also has a sister.

Hehe, Xie Zhihang laughed, he listened carefully for a while, and after he was sure, he went to Lanhuiyuan, where his mother Qiao lived.

Mrs. Qiao was taking a nap in her room, when she heard the maid's report, she got up and went to the front hall unhappily.The ten-year-old son has grown up and looks a little calm, and she hasn't seen him for quite a while.Just thinking about that man...

"Mother, does the child have a sister?" Xie Zhihang looked at Qiao with bright eyes and asked expectantly.

"Who are you listening to nonsense!" Qiao Shi, who had always been sneering and low-browed, suddenly yelled, glanced at the surprised eyes of the surrounding maids, and motioned the maids to back down. It took a long time to stabilize her mind, pretending to be ignorant, and asked: "Who did you hear that from?"

Although Xie Zhihang is only ten years old, he is a precocious boy. He has been bullied by the concubine all these years, and he has developed a lot of insight. Looking at his mother's reaction now, he knows that what he eavesdropped just now is true.Looking at his mother's appearance, he curled his lips unconsciously: "Mother doesn't need to ask these questions, just tell the child if this is the case."

"Go back, don't inquire about these things any more." Qiao returned to her usual calm look and waved her away.

Xie Zhihang was wronged by his mother for not protecting her all these years, and his eyes filled with tears, "Not only does mother not like the child, but doesn't she even want to get her sister back? Is it possible that a mother's heart is made of iron?"

Qiao's body froze, that child.Hehe, it should have been damned.

"Mother doesn't want to recognize my sister, but the child wants a sister." Xie Zhihang raised his hand and wiped away his tears fiercely, "Mother is so cruel, just pretend that the child has never been here before." He opened the curtain and ran away after finishing his cruel words out.

Qiao Shi stood there for a long while without realizing that the child was still alive.But what about living?It's just a disgrace.
