Qin Youyi took her children and returned to the capital with her husband Su Zhongying within a few days. Since Su Boxiong was still in the southwest and had not yet received news of his return, the funeral at Zhenxihou Mansion had to be hosted by Su Zhongying and Qin Youyi for the time being.

Mrs. Zhenxi Hou was deeply saddened by her husband's death. She had been bedridden for many days and refused to even see her close relatives and friends. Qin Youyi was responsible for all the reception work for the female relatives. Even her and Su Zhongying's eldest son,

However, at the age of twelve or thirteen, he was still a half-grown child, and he still stood beside his father very presentably, helping to receive relatives, friends and guests who came to express their condolences.

After Qin Bai and Niu went to worship, they returned home and talked to Qin Hanzhen, who had come back to visit, and said: "It can be seen that living outside for a few years is still very beneficial to your two little cousins. Let me see

The two children are now much more alert, speak louder, and are stronger. They are not like the little lambs they used to raise by their grandmother. They look well-behaved, but in fact they don't look like children at all."

Qin Hanzhen also felt happy when he heard this. The behavior of Madam Zhenxihou is obviously not suitable for the generals. It is a good thing that she is sick now. I hope that in the future, the Zhenxihou Mansion will be led by brothers Su Boxiong and Su Zhongying.

Can you gradually get rid of the shadow of the past and welcome a new life?

Niu also told Qin Hanzhen: "I seem to have heard the wife's maiden family discussing in private the matter of dividing the family. Although it is not easy to divide the family during the period of filial piety, it is not difficult to divide the family after observing filial piety.

Just wait three more years. Your eldest aunt seems to have this intention. She has discussed with your uncle privately and wants him to help your little aunt. If your little aunt and uncle agree to the separation of the family, then he has to come forward and say so.

Xiang Caixing, there is no way you can let your little aunt and two children continue to be tortured by Mrs. Zhenxihou. Your aunt and grandmother have rarely asked for help from me. Just a Chengenhoufu is not worth it.

It’s not enough. If the Yongjia Marquis Mansion is added, Mrs. Zhenxi Marquis will not dare to have any objections. In this way, your little aunt will be able to escape safely."

Qin Hanzhen said: "Whether we separate the families or not, it depends on what Uncle Su and his brother want. If you don't want to be rubbed by Mrs. Zhenxihou anymore, at worst, you can just continue to find a way to live outside the family after observing your filial piety. This has

What is there to worry about? In contrast, Mrs. Zhenxi Hou Shizi cannot get rid of it, right?"

Niu said: "How can I care about what your great-aunt thinks? But now that she can focus a little more on her own flesh and blood, instead of talking about Xu Zheng's failure in the test all day long, it is a great thing for us.

Now. Your uncle and brother now want her to think more about your little aunt, so as to save her from thinking about Xu Zheng again."

Speaking of Xu Zheng, Qin Hanzhen also asked: "What are Xu Zheng's thoughts now? Should he continue to take the palace examination and accept it even if he ranks low, or should he give up on this subject and take the exam again after the exam, just like his eldest cousin and Prince Yu did?

"

Mr. Niu curled his lips: "God knows what happened? There has been no movement in Xu's parents' room for several days. I only know that they went to Gui's house a few days ago and closed the door when they came back. There was a funeral in the Zhenxi Hou Mansion, and their house

After all, they were considered in-laws in a roundabout way, but they hadn't even come to express their condolences. They even went to the second room of the Xu family. I don't know if they thought that the Zhenxihou Mansion was not as good as before, so they looked down on people snobbishly.

Anyway, Mr. Xu is always flaunting his status as a scholar, but the things he does don’t look like a scholar at all. On the contrary, he is looked down upon by others!"

Niu didn't know, so Qin Hanzhen didn't ask again. Two days later, she and Zhao Mo also went to the Zhenxihou Mansion to express their condolences, and offered a stick of incense to the deceased Zhenxihou, which was regarded as an in-law marriage.

Etiquette. She was a female dependent and did not see Su Zhongying, but she saw Qin Youyi and Bian Shi, the wife of the Prince of Zhenxi, who were answering the ceremony in the mourning hall. Although they were pale and looked haggard, they were in good spirits and looked quite good.

In order to be calm, I must have been prepared for this funeral. The two sisters got along quite harmoniously, and they discussed and discussed everything. The affairs in the Zhenxihou Mansion were decided by her and her husband together, and there was no other decision.

There is room for people to intervene.

Qin Hanzhen thought of the rumored Mrs. Zhenxihou who was so sad that she refused to see anyone, and understood that the current Zhenxihou Mansion was really going to be completely transformed.

With the marriage relationship between Suning County Prince's Mansion and Zhenxi Hou Mansion, Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo can make this trip in person, and with all the etiquette, there is nothing to criticize. What happens after that, the Su family will decide on their own

He could handle it, and Qin Hanzhen didn't pay much attention.

Zhao Shuo, who is now living in the fiefdom of Suning, has a new child after the spring flowers bloom. He is clamoring to hold a banquet for his new son. Zhao Mo, who is the elder brother, has to personally host it. Zhao Mo is now

He was busy with the aftermath of the Liaodong War, so how could he have time to pay attention to him? He sent an official back to deal with it. As for Zhao Shuo's desire to take his youngest son to Beijing to present the jade ultimatum in person, it was even more impossible. Qin Hanzhen gave him

Ma Auntie gave her a gift, which was nominally a reward for bringing a child to the Zhao family, but actually it was meant as a warning. As expected, Ma Meiniang, who received the gift, quickly gave up on the idea, and she didn’t know that she had used it.

How can they appease Zhao Shuo? As for when their youngest son will receive the jade certificate? They have to wait until the anniversary has passed to make sure that the child will not die. And this is the treatment that only direct descendants of the clan will receive, like

A commoner child like Zhao Shuo's youngest son is considered lucky if he can be registered before the age of eight. How can such an honor be given so easily?

However, when Qin Hanzhen saw that Zhao Mo personally delivered a message to the clan government and presented a jade certificate to Zhao Qi, he knew what he really thought. His background was not important, the key was whether Zhao Mo saw it or not.

.As long as he feels good about it and cares about someone, even if it is the son of his enemy, he is willing to take care of it. But if he is not satisfied, he will still have reservations about the child even if it is his own child.

Qin Hanzhen understood Zhao Mo's thoughts and had an idea of ​​how to treat Zhao Shuo and Ma Meiniang.

Zhao Mo was very busy, so Qin Hanzhen took the place of her husband and carefully explained to Zhao Qi the matters such as the jade ultimatum. He also explained clearly what kind of treatment he would enjoy in the future, how much money and food he would have every year, how to arrange his studies, and his future career.

How do you find a job when you grow up, how do you settle down, what can you get when you get married, if you want to make progress and strive for meritorious service and a title, what do you need to do, and to what extent...etc., etc., very detailed.

Zhao Qi has been a smart child since he was a child. After listening, he was thoughtful. Qin Hanzhen did not bother him and said to him: "You never let your brother and me worry about you. We also believe that you will not go wrong."

Lu. But after all, we are all your brothers and sisters-in-law, your relatives. If you need help or if you don’t understand something, just feel free to ask us for help and advice, and don’t be heretical."

Zhao Qi pursed his lips and smiled shyly: "I won't. My brother and sister-in-law are good to me, I know in my heart. When I encounter difficulties, I will not be polite to my brother and sister-in-law. If I only think about my own face,

I refused to ask my brother and sister-in-law for help, but ended up making things worse. Shouldn't I ask my brother and sister-in-law to help me deal with the aftermath? That would be adding to the chaos."

Qin Hanzhen smiled and touched his little head: "Hey, brother Qi, it's good that you understand this." She looked at the clothes on his body and said, "This is something your girl made for you, right? It's very good.

It matches your skin color. Later, I will send you a few more materials of similar colors and patterns, and you will ask someone to make you some more clothes, ready to wear when you go out. Now you are going to visit your friends today and ask for advice.

You still have to go to school, and you have to pay respects to the elders in the clan during the New Year. You can’t just go back and forth wearing the same four-piece clothes of the season. Your brother is too careless to think of this, but you can actually tell your sister-in-law."

Zhao Qi didn't take it seriously: "I'm a man, why do I need so many new clothes? Just enough to wear, four pieces a season is already a lot!"

Qin Hanzhen watched him say the words "I am a man" with a childish look on his face, and couldn't help but feel a little funny. He also followed his words and said: "Yes, yes, you are a boy, of course."

You don’t need to be as particular about what you wear as girls. It’s just that people in the world are very vulgar and like to respect others first and then others. If they look down on you because you don’t have many new clothes and make things difficult for you, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?

?Our family obviously doesn’t lack that little money, so it’s a big deal if we can miss out on one thing. If we have extra time, it’s better to use it on more meaningful things. Don’t you think so?”

Zhao Qi thought for a while, nodded and said: "That makes sense. Then just follow what sister-in-law said." But then he blushed and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, can I make less clothes and make them a girl's clothes?

Want to give it away? I'll choose the ingredients myself and let my girl make it."

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but wonder: "Who are you giving the clothes to?" But he immediately thought of a possibility in his mind.

"It's for Sister Hanzhu." Zhao Qi said with some embarrassment, "I think she's not in a very good mood recently, and I want to cheer her up. She saw a beautiful new purple dress worn by Aunt Ping.

I took a look at it several times, feeling envious but afraid to tell anyone. I thought it would be easy to find something similar in material in our house, so I decided to give her a piece of clothing."

Cai Shengnan's new purple clothes? Qin Han really thought about it and remembered it. The material of the clothes was sent back to her parents' home. There are indeed some in the prince's palace, and since there are more than one color in the same series, if she chooses

A piece of material came out and was made for Qin Hanzhu, so there was no need to worry about the embarrassment of matching clothes. Qin Hanzhen readily agreed to Zhao Qi's request, but he was still a little depressed in his heart: "Why is Hanzhu in a bad mood?"

Zhao Qi hesitated for a moment and said: "I can't tell clearly. She seemed to have mentioned that her brother would soon be no longer her brother, so she felt sad. But didn't she only have a brother? When did she have another brother? She said that

If she is from the Marquis Chengen's residence, it seems that she is not close to any of her cousins."

Qin Hanzhen's heart skipped a beat. If he is Qin Hanzhu's brother, then there is indeed one, Qin Qian. But isn't brother Qian still living in his hometown in Jiangning? He should try to take the Tongsheng test this year, right? What?

Qin Hanzhu would suddenly say that her brother would no longer be her brother? Could it be that... what Niu had vaguely revealed before was finally going to happen?
