Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 16

"Miss Wu, Miss Wu is really well taken care of here, Taoxi didn't lie to you." Taoxi felt that Miss Wu's eyes were too aggressive, as if she was a different person.

Lin Qingran asked her urgently, "What about these few days!"

Taoxi paused for a moment, but still said the same way, "Miss has been taken care of well these days, Miss Fifth, you really think too much."

Lin Qingran didn't wait for her to finish speaking and went back to the big sister's room, and said as she walked, "If you don't tell me, I'll ask in person."

Taoxi hurriedly chased after her and stopped Lin Qingran, with a troubled expression on her face, "Fifth Miss, you are really embarrassing this servant."

"Taoxi, don't be embarrassed if you say so." Lin Qingran looked up at her, her eyes softened a little, "You have to know, we all care about the big sister, and she has lost weight just a few days after giving birth. After so much, I can see it, could it be that the second sister can't see it, and then the mother will know, and the eldest sister can still hide it."

Taoxi's eyes were slightly red when she said this. After a long time, Taoxi said, "Fifth Miss, Miss, she is suffering in her heart and has nothing to say."

Lin Qingran's heart skipped a beat, and she waited quietly for Taoxi to continue, "Miss was compared with the two daughter-in-laws in He's family when she was offered tea the next day after she got married. Not as tall as them, the young lady is holding back all these things, the uncle and the young lady refuse to say a word, and even gossip that the young lady will not be able to give birth to a boy after she is pregnant. The child has never been here again these few days, the young lady is not doing well these few days, and I feel uncomfortable, and the person who was raised well has suddenly become so thin."

"Did elder sister warn you that no one is allowed to say these things?" After a moment of silence, Lin Qingran asked her, and Taoxi nodded, "Madam and Master will worry about her if they know about these things."

Is this why the eldest sister suddenly lost weight? Lin Qingran looked at Taoxi, "Eldest sister gave birth to a daughter, and Mrs. He didn't come over, so where is the eldest brother-in-law?"

"My uncle likes the young lady very much, and I have been here for the past few days." Taoxi said this, Lin Qingran was slightly relieved, and wanted to say something, a maid not far behind called Taoxi, the second sister and the others I'm in a hurry, I want her to go back quickly.

Lin Qingran turned around and wanted to go back to her eldest sister's room, but Taoxi called her in a low voice, "Fifth Miss, the servant said, please don't mention it to Miss Fifth."

Seeing the worry on Taoxi's face, Lin Qingran nodded, "I promise you."

Back at the eldest sister's house, the three of them left together and went to the front hall to watch the second eldest granddaughter of the He family wash the third. Along the way, Lin Qingran felt a sense of powerlessness flooding her whole body.

The eldest sister gave birth to a daughter, and Mrs. He treated her indifferently. This kind of cold violence is more chilling than hysterical accusations and complaints.

In this prosperous He family, the head of the house will take over the title in the future, and the second house seems to be quite promising. At any time, it seems that there is a competition, to see whose son is more promising, and whose daughter-in-law will marry More powerful, compare who will have a grandson first, and whose grandson will be smarter in the future, and who will learn more.

And the eldest sister gave birth to a daughter, in the eyes of Mrs. He, she directly lost to the eldest family.

In the past, Lin Qingran felt that it was too much for her grandmother to keep asking her father to accept concubines and provoking her mother with words, but seeing how the He family treated her, Lin Qingran suddenly felt that her grandmother was much simpler.

The reason why she felt powerless was that even if she knew about the situation of her elder sister, she couldn't change it. The elder sister was married, she was the daughter-in-law of the He family, and she followed the rules of the He family. , whether it is bitter or sweet, the big sister has to bear it by herself, and many of these things seem so aggrieved.

Father and mother may have considered the He family in many ways, and they also affirmed the character of the eldest brother-in-law, but many things can only be understood after living together, and that little contact alone is not enough.

Lin Qingran remained silent along the way, and Lin Qingyan patted her forehead lightly, "What's the matter, this is, I was still alive and kicking just now, and I was speechless all of a sudden."

Lin Qingran raised her head, looked at the second sister, then at the third sister, moved her mouth, and a smile appeared on her face, "No, I was just thinking, the big sister's yard is so big, I didn't come over just now."

Probably because she thought what a seven-year-old girl could think, Lin Qingyan pinched her fleshy face, "The He family is a big family, and it has been passed down for several generations, so it is naturally rich."

"I don't think everyone is doing well." Lin Qingran muttered, life is not going well, no matter how prominent it is.

"It's nothing good." The three elder sisters who had been quiet all the time suddenly said, Lin Qingran looked up at her, and Lin Qingxuan reached out and touched her head, "The big family's is too complicated, it's not as simple as the small family's."

The three of them were talking, and in front of them was the arch of the front yard, and there was a lively sound, and the three baths came to an end.

The hall was full of people, the leader took them to one side, announced that Mrs. He came over, saw the three sisters from their family, and said with a smile, "The hospitality is not good, Xiao He, take the three young ladies of the Lin family Go there." Seeing that the child had been carried to the next door, Lin Qingyan pulled the two younger sisters and did not move, but looked at Mrs. He with a smile, "I just went to see my sister, and I forgot the time since I haven't talked for a long time. It’s just late, and I missed my little niece’s baby shower, it’s really unreasonable, please lead us to see the child, we sisters have prepared gifts for her.”

The couple of them came here on behalf of the Lu family and the Lin family. Naturally, Mrs. He would not neglect, "Xiao He, take Miss Lin's family to the wing room, and bring them out to the arranged seats later."

After seeing Mrs. He off to greet other guests, the three of them followed Xiao He to the next room, where a nanny and two maids looked after the baby lying on the crib.

After entering, the child on the bed had already fallen asleep. Lin Qingran glanced at the soft little niece, took out a delicately carved golden lock and wrapped it around her hand, and said softly, "This is from Aunt Wu, You have to grow up healthy and healthy, and you have to be nice to your mother." The last sentence was so light that Lin Qingran said it close to the little guy's face.

Putting down the things the sisters gave, Lin Qingyan still wanted to see the child, there was a burst of laughter outside the house, and in a blink of an eye two girls who were as old as Lin Qingxuan came in, and Lin Qingran heard the nanny call them three Miss and Cousin.

The third miss of the He family saw Lin Qingyan and the others, smiled slightly, recognized the leader Lin Qingyan, and naturally guessed that the two who had never met before were the Lin family and the other two ladies, "I said, why are you not outside?" When I saw Sister Lin, I came here to see Sister Hui."

"Yeah, I went to see the big sister first, and then I came to see the child, so I can have an explanation with my mother when I go back." This has happened, and I have to say a few words, so I just sit down and mention Lin Qingran. At that time, she politely called out to Miss He Jiasan, Sister He, then nodded to Miss He Jiabiao and said hello, and sat quietly beside her sister, obediently reducing her sense of presence.

It's just that Miss He's Cousin on the opposite side seems to be quite targeted. Seeing Lin Qingran's faint greeting, she pursed her lips and smiled, "So it's the fifth Miss of the Lin family, isn't she a little child prodigy?"

"Miss Qin was joking. It's all other people's exaggeration. She's not a child prodigy." Lin Qingyan took her words and smiled, "My lord taught her. She is young, so she was pulled up to show off."

"So that's how it is." Miss Qin laughed while holding the handkerchief, "I said, boys are not so smart, let alone a little girl, it's no wonder that your family is all sisters, It’s hard for no brothers to come out.”

Lin Qingyan's complexion changed slightly, and then she let out a hehe, "I didn't expect Miss Qin to worry about the Lin family's affairs for us. I'm really ashamed, but now that I have two younger brothers, I think it should make many people feel happy." Don't worry, it's really hard for you." It's really enough to say a few words about the relationship that doesn't make sense.

This lady named Qin Suwan really looked worriedly at Sister Hui who was lying on the bed, "Yes, I just don't know who will marry Sister Hui in the future."

As soon as these words came out, even the third lady of the He family's complexion turned pale. Lin Qingyan had long been holding her breath here. It's nothing to be weird. Before Miss He could persuade her to make peace, Lin Qingyan's voice was cold It rang out, "Miss Qin, are you too lenient? You are so concerned about other people's affairs, how hard you must be."

Qin Suwan probably didn't expect the second young lady of the Lin family to be such a hard-to-talk master, she was stunned for a while, but she spoke slowly, her tone full of grievances, "Miss Lin, how can you talk like that, I just care about you Miss Hui."

"Cousin, who will send Sister Hui to her when she gets married in the future? Naturally, her younger brother will come, so you don't have to worry about it." Miss He San immediately followed Qin Suwan's words, and then looked at Lin Qingyan with a smile, "Sister Lin Don't mind, my cousin is just like that when she speaks, there is nothing wrong with her."

This is the He family, Lin Qingyan and the others are guests, and they didn't really come to quarrel. Miss He San acted like a peacemaker, so Lin Qingyan didn't say anything, but Qin Suwan's eyes were still not so kind , What's the matter with no malice, this man speaks outspokenly, what kind of upbringing is at home.

Qin Suwan also felt aggrieved at this moment. She felt that she was right. A girl from the Lin family only had two sons in the end. Who knows whether her cousin will continue to have a daughter after giving birth to sister Hui? This cousin is married Wasn't there no younger brother to send it to me?

The atmosphere continued to be awkward, so Miss He had no choice but to continue smoothing things over, stood up and gave Qin Suwan a hand, "Look at what we said, I forgot the time, it's time for the banquet, it's been a busy morning, Sister Hui just fell asleep not long ago, Sister Lin, why don't we go out and sit down and talk."

She raised her hand not to slap the smiling face, Miss He San looked at them with a smile on her face, Lin Qingyan pulled her two younger sisters together, and put on a smile with a comfortable expression, with a sincere tone, "That's right, you shouldn't say what you said Yes, don't make people disturb Sister Hui to sleep."
