Chapter 885 Soft-hearted
"What are you worried about now?" Qin Hanzhen looked at Qin Jinhua sitting at the table with his chin in a daze, and couldn't help but ask her.
Qin Jinhua didn't move his neck, but turned his eyes to look at her: "I'm not worried? What do I have to worry about?" The content of his words was completely inconsistent with the aura emanating from the whole person.
Qin Hanzhen curled his lips and walked to sit opposite her: "Don't coax me. Although I don't know why you are worried, you don't look like you are okay. If you are really worried, just
Tell me. Although I may not be able to help you, I can at least explain it to you, and maybe I can even help you come up with a solution. But if you don’t say anything, you can’t think of anything.
If there is no way to solve it, then you can only keep worrying. Now I am just here to ask you, but with your obvious appearance, it will be your parents and brothers who come to ask you tomorrow! In two days, maybe
Even your grandmother is talking."
Qin Jinhua pursed her lips, sat up straight, and whispered: "Actually, I'm not worried about anything, I'm just..." After a pause, she looked embarrassed again and did not continue.
Qin Hanzhen raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong? Is it your family's business? You don't want us, the third bedroom, to know? Did the eldest uncle and the second uncle quarrel again? Didn't it mean that the second uncle persuaded the eldest uncle? Didn't the uncle
Grandma is still insisting on your marriage to your eldest cousin?"
Qin Jinhua shook his head: "Grandma is not like that. After my father made it clear that he disagreed, she communicated with the Xu family and agreed not to mention cousin Xu's marriage to her brother again, nor to
You will mention the matter between me and my cousin Xu. But..." She paused again, "Grandma looks very sad. In the past two days, I went to Songfengtang to calm down in the morning and dusk, and found that grandma was listless and energetic.
She is much weaker. I don’t know if it was because of my brother and I. My father’s attitude was too tough, which made her sad..."
Qin Jinhua's mood is very contradictory. She naturally has complaints about her grandmother. She has no obsession with marriage matters and just obeys the arrangements of her parents and family. But she likes Cai Yuanzhen very much and knows that her brother once hoped to marry Cai Yuanzhen.
, although Xu Xiu has known her since childhood and their relationship is okay, but it is not as good as Cai Yuanzhen. However, because the Xu family interfered, her brother lost a good marriage, and contacted her mother several times in the past.
Arranging another marriage for her brother was secretly sabotaged by the Xu family. It was also because of the rumors spread by the Xu family that she was unable to arrange a good marriage. She must have been angry. She didn't understand why her grandmother treated her like this.
She and her brother seemed to think that their grandchildren were not as important as their nieces and nephews, and they didn't understand why the Xu family was becoming more and more ugly. Could it be that the love shown to her by the Xu family when she was a child was just an act?
Now that she was finally free from the entanglement of the Xu family, she no longer had to worry about being forced by her grandmother to marry into the Xu family. Logically speaking, she should breathe a sigh of relief. But seeing her grandmother's lonely look, she felt uncomfortable again. Regardless.
It is unreasonable how stubborn her grandmother is about her marriage. After all, she is the grandmother who has loved her since she was a child. Except for her marriage, Mrs. Xu has always treated her very well. Seeing her grandmother so sad, Qin Jinhua couldn't help but feel guilty.
After listening to Qin Jinhua's hesitant confession, Qin Hanzhen finally understood why the little girl was struggling. She sighed: "There is nothing you can do about it. Could it be that you feel sorry for your grandmother? I hope her mood will be better."
Get up and take the initiative to tell her, are you willing to marry into the Xu family?"
"How is that possible?!" Qin Jinhua's eyes widened, "Third sister, please don't joke. Cousin Xu's marriage has been decided, there is no need to mention it again, and the remaining Xu Rong... I told you a long time ago, if I
If I really married a white man, my mother would probably vomit blood!"
A white grandnephew of a high-ranking official cannot marry, not to mention that the Xu family is not what it used to be. If Xu Rong can live up to his expectations, just like Xu Zheng, even if the Xu family plummets, he will still be a potential stock in the eyes of the world, but
However, Xu Rong cannot be compared with his cousin. His status is entirely dependent on the status of the Xu family. When the Xu family was prosperous, he still had considerable influence in the marriage market; if the Xu family failed, he would have nothing to gain.
It's time to take action.
Qin Hanzhen naturally understood this, and she smiled at Qin Jinhua and said, "Look, things are so clear and simple. No matter how sad my great-aunt is, you can't be soft-hearted and fulfill her wishes, so there is no point in worrying about it.
You can wait until your great aunt slowly figures it out. If you really feel bad about it, then be nicer to your great aunt, be sweeter, coax her more, spend more time with her, give her some food she likes, and make a few things for her.
Little needlework, or giving her a pat on the back or something like that. As long as the eldest uncle and grandma don't encounter anything that happened to the Xu family, she still loves you, her biological granddaughter. If you are filial to her, she will feel happy. As time goes by,
When Xu Zheng gets married and Xu Xiu talks about being from a good family, my great-aunt will naturally have nothing to feel sad about."
Qin Jinhua's expression moved slightly, he pursed his lips, nodded solemnly and said, "I know what to do."
After finishing talking about the troublesome things, Qin Jinhua suddenly remembered another thing. He took Qin Hanzhen's hand and explained to her seriously: "This time for my hair extension ceremony, I originally planned to ask you, the third sister, to be the one who compliments me.
In the end, my mother arranged for me to be Cousin Lu. She thought that Cousin Lu was already engaged to Crown Prince Cai. From what my brother heard from Crown Prince Cai, it seemed that he was quite satisfied with Cousin Lu, and they would definitely be harmonious after marriage.
My aunt discussed it with my mother, and planned to lend me my haircut gift to show Cousin Lu as a compliment, which would also let people in the capital see that Cousin Lu’s dignified appearance is enough to match that of Crown Prince Cai, and prevent people from spreading rumors outside.
Gossip. I thought it wouldn’t be easy for Cousin Lu, so I agreed. I didn’t discuss it with you in advance, so don’t be angry with me."
Qin Hanzhen laughed when he heard this: "What can I be angry about? When you told me for the first time that you wanted to ask me to be a liker, I was a little panicked. Although I have never done it before, it was all in
When I was in my hometown, all the people who came to watch the ceremony were my relatives and friends, and no one would find fault with me. This time, the second sister, you and the second uncle are going to have a big event and invite so many guests. I am really afraid that I will be nowhere to be seen by then.
I didn't do it well and I'm embarrassed for you. Now that you let Cousin Lu take over this important task, I'm really relieved."
How could Qin Jinhua believe that Qin Han would really be flustered by a small haircut gift? It's not like she has never attended banquets held by the powerful circles in the capital, and she has never met dignitaries from all walks of life, but she has always been low-key and quiet, and she is not a good dancer.
But Qin Jinhua knew in her heart that Qin Hanzhen said this just to make herself feel better. She smiled and took Qin Hanzhen's hand: "Good sister, thank you very much." She felt indescribably close to Qin Hanzhen in her heart.
Qin Hanzhen asked her with a smile: "I asked you earlier, have you thought about what to give Cousin Lu to add makeup? Do you have an idea?"
Qin Jinhua has already thought about this problem: "I plan to give her the golden silk headdress inlaid with red treasures. The workmanship of the headdress is excellent, but it is too heavy. I will only give it to her when I go to the palace to pay respects during the Chinese New Year.
Wearing it, my head and neck hurt every time I put it on. Cousin Lu is stronger than me, so I simply gave this to Cousin Lu to add to her makeup. She will be the wife of the Marquis of Yunyang in the future, and she won’t be able to do it without a few decent sets of head and face jewelry.
.My set of golden silk hair and face is very good, and it was made in-house."
Qin Hanzhen said casually: "Since you gave her a set of gold silk inlaid with precious stones, I will give her a set of pearls, decorated with diamonds from Guangzhou. It is more elegant and can be worn in daily life, but
Not shabby at all.”
The two began to discuss what kind of box they should use to store the jewelry. At this moment, Ranqiu came in carrying a cage and said hesitantly to Qin Jinhua: "The second cousin of the Xu family is outside the second door. He said he wanted to see the girl. What's the matter?"
I brought this in, saying it was what the girl wanted, and he finally found it recently." In the bamboo cage in her hand, there seemed to be a snow-white little rabbit, fluffy and extremely cute.
Qin Jinhua was startled. She took the cage and opened the lid. The little white rabbit immediately jumped out and nestled in her arms. Its two red eyes stared at her blankly and its two long little ears twitched.
A shrug immediately touched her heart. She couldn't help it, she gently picked up the little rabbit and touched its fur, and couldn't help but smile on her face.
Qin Han gave a sincere "tsk" and looked at Ranqiu: "Xu Rong is waiting outside the second door. Apart from asking to see you girl, he didn't mention anyone else? Doesn't he need to go and say hello to his great-aunt first?"
When Xu Zheng and Xu Rong came to the Chengen Marquis Mansion as guests, they had to go to greet Mrs. Xu first. Because the reason for their visit was to greet their great-aunt, it was impossible to directly say that they came to see the girl from Qin's family room. That would not be a good reputation.
Nice to hear.
Ranqiu hesitated again: "Yes... the second cousin of the Xu family originally planned to go to the madam to pay her respects, but the madam said she was not well and asked him to go back. He didn't mention it again, and only said that he would take care of the little girl.
I gave the rabbit to the girl, saying that I made an appointment with her in the past."
Qin Jinhua raised his head in surprise: "When did I make an appointment with him? I..." She bit her lip, "I told him not to bother."
Qin Hanzhen asked her: "Do you like this little rabbit? In fact, if you really want it, you can ask the people below to get one for you."
Qin Jinhua smiled bitterly, touched the little rabbit again with some reluctance, and put it back into the bamboo cage: "Give it back to cousin Rong. Mother doesn't allow me to raise these furry little things. It is a living creature."
, it is impossible to hide it from my mother. Rather than letting it be lost by then, it is better to ask cousin Rong to find a good place for it."
Ranqiu whispered: "Girl, I heard that the second cousin of the Xu family caught this rabbit personally. In order to catch it, he even got injured on his hand. I just saw it at the second door. There were several wounds on the back of his hand.
A bloodstain."
Qin Hanzhen raised an eyebrow.
Qin Jinhua hurriedly asked: "Is he okay? Why bother? He is not the person to do such a thing, just ask the people below to do it."
Ranqiu sighed: "He said this was a gift for the girl. How can he show his sincerity if he doesn't catch it himself?"
Qin Jinhua lowered his head, looking at the little rabbit spinning around in the bamboo cage, and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly I realized that it is Christmas Eve, I wish everyone a Merry Christmas~Happy New Year~~~
