Return of the Swallow

"Mother." Qin Huaiyuan said in a deep voice unhappily: "Sister Yi is my only daughter and your granddaughter! She has been kidnapped now, and you don't know whether she is alive or dead. What you want to think about is not worrying about her condition, but Why are you thinking about arranging people for her husband? Is this what a grandmother should do? "

Qin Huaiyuan is thinking about his daughter's life and death now. And this time, I don’t know if the Holy Spirit will be able to come to his senses after getting through this. He was even more worried about whether the location where he hid his in-laws and his family of three would be discovered.

These things have made him very upset. In addition, although the Tatars have suspended the war because they have lost food and grass, who can be sure that the Tatars will have no food and grass to support the war?

What if Siqin had the same idea as him and dispatched them like a hussar, without carrying too much baggage, raiding wherever there was food, and breaking into the Zhou Dynasty to plunder, wouldn't the people on the border be miserable?

Qin Huaiyuan was exhausted mentally and physically just thinking about these things, but the old lady mentioned this matter again just after experiencing a battle of wits.

No matter how patient she was, her selfish words were completely worn away.

The old lady was stunned by her son's scolding, and said in disbelief: "Brother Meng, what do you mean? Why wasn't my grandmother the one who did this? Isn't it our entire Qin family that I did?

"It's true that Sister Yi is my granddaughter, but I don't have this one granddaughter, not to mention she's not the most filial to me. Shouldn't I be planning the future for other girls from the Qin family?

"Besides, with the marriage between the two families, since one granddaughter cannot consolidate the status of the princess, isn't it time to send another one over? What are you so awkward about?"

Qin Huaiyuan's face was as dark as water after hearing this. The aura he had developed in the court for many years was released when he suppressed his anger.

Although the old lady spoke righteously, she still felt a little scared when she saw Qin Huaiyuan's cold eyes.

However, she didn't feel that she was at fault. She just felt that her son's behavior must have turned his elbows outward, and he would no longer have a mother when he had a wife and daughter!

The old lady shed tears of grievance, sobbed and patted the pillow on her knees: "Why am I so miserable! How did your father teach you in the beginning? I think you have forgotten it! How many times have you repeated my words? Refute, you think you have strong wings and are the head of the family, so you will no longer be filial to your mother!"

Usually when the old lady cries at this time, Qin Huaiyuan will gently comfort her and say some nice and soothing words to comfort her.

But today, Qin Huaiyuan just stood there silently,

He looked at her with a distant and unfamiliar look.

Seeing that Qin Huaiyuan did not coax him as expected, the old lady felt even more aggrieved and burst into tears.

"What a sin! I don't live anymore, I don't live anymore! Oh my heart, all my heart, it's all in vain! How much do you all dislike me!"

While crying, he beat his chest and feet, covered his face with a handkerchief, half of the jade hairpin on his head slipped off, the bun was loose, and his gray hair was scattered, as if he had been insulted.

It's like being tortured.

The second master, the second wife and the third master were all silently watching the old lady making trouble.

Originally, the second lady wanted to go up and try to persuade her. There were already a lot of things going on at home. She was crying and fussing like this with a red mouth and white teeth, and she still looked like an old man.

But the second master secretly held the second lady and prevented her from getting close.

The third master couldn't bear to see his aunt being like this. He sneered slightly, turned around and left first, out of sight.

There was only Nanny Qin standing awkwardly beside the old lady, neither trying to persuade her nor retreating.

There was silence in the house. The old lady's voice was hoarse from howling. No one came to comfort her, let alone Qin Huaiyuan who came to apologize. She became even more angry.

She beat her chest, pointed at Ms. Sun who had been silent next to Qin Huaiyuan, and cursed: "You are the bitch! If Meng, who is teasing me, doesn't learn well, you say you are blowing some pillow wind!"

Qin Huaiyuan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Mrs. Sun couldn't bear it anymore and finally said sarcastically: "It's so funny! I'm telling your son not to learn well? You don't even see if your son is a three-year-old child! Will she listen when I blow the pillow? I also want to ask him to do those things. Anyone who disturbs the house and makes it uneasy is kicked out, will he listen?"

"You!" The old lady glared angrily, knowing that Mrs. Sun was referring to herself when she accused Sang and Huai.

Sun's expression was still as stubborn as before, and her words seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.

"I've really had enough! The old lady is obviously the matriarch of the family, so she should find ways to maintain the harmony between her children! But why is it you who stirs up trouble every time!

"What's so wrong with Sister Yi that you want to harm her like this!

"You first persuaded Ba Yatou to make him fall in love with my uncle. Didn't you think about it, if this concubine thing doesn't work out, will the sisterly relationship between Ba Yatou and Sister Yi be better? What about you? Have you ever thought about how your daughter-in-law and sister-in-law get along with each other--\u003e\u003e

Where?

"Are you dissatisfied? You think your son is unfilial? But let me tell you, as biological parents, we, let alone other people, feel ashamed to live in this house! This house was bought with Sister Yi's money!

"You lost all your belongings on the road! If Sister Yi hadn't used her own money to buy this house first, and she was afraid that our husband and wife would be disgraced and the brothers would be embarrassed, so we quietly transferred the property rights to We, our whole family are still renting a house to live in!

"A person who is not involved in childbirth eats and lives in Yi Jie'er all day long. We Yi Jie'er don't want your thanks. We just want to show our filial piety. But what about you? She has been kidnapped. She is alive and well. I didn’t even know that you stabbed her in the back! I think you don’t care about your granddaughter’s life or death at all!

"You are a grandmother! Do you still have a heart?"

"You are so presumptuous!" The old lady beat the mattress angrily, "Brother Meng, if you were raised by me, divorce her! Divorce her!"

"Die me up? I wish you could! I've seen it all! When my father and brother were here and our Dingguo Palace was prosperous, who came here to propose marriage? It wasn't me who came here to marry me. From the Qin family!

"It was so easy for me to get pregnant in ten months. Why did I lose Sister Yi's son after I gave birth to her? Mother and daughter have been separated for fourteen years. Who will make up for this suffering?

"You think I can't give birth to a son for you, you think my natal family has lost power, and when my natal family was being persecuted, you shamelessly welcomed the demon queen's sister into the house to be your concubine!

"Suffering from a natural disaster, the whole family tightened their belts. Sister Yi went to work and hunt with a hungry face and skinny muscles. All the food she saved was eaten by you. You didn't know you felt sorry for her, so you smacked your lips and turned around to raise her. The little rabbit was eaten! You can bite such a little beast as big as a palm! How shameless!

"You enjoy the happiness of family, but you don't know how to cherish it. Instead, you instigate the relationship between your children! If I don't tell you, will you think I am mute? Give me up, even better! My mother has long been prosperous in the south, and I am not helpless. We have a home to go to and nowhere to go! I want to go outside and tell you how you, a mother-in-law, treat your children!"

Sun cursed angrily, spat hard, turned around and left.

Qin Huaiyuan's brows had turned into knots. He turned around and grabbed Sun, "Don't go. It's dangerous outside now. There's going to be a war..."

"Let go!"

Sun shook off Qin Huaiyuan's hand, and tears fell down: "Qin Meng, I have lived with you for most of my life. I have endured all the grievances, cowardice, and dangers with you. Yes, I have experienced it. It can be said that I have endured what I should endure, and I have endured what I shouldn’t. Even if your mother thinks that I can’t have a son, I will raise a child for you in a room. Although I am jealous, but It's also because I care about our relationship as a couple over the years, but when have I not taken a concubine for you?

"Your mother is a mother and cares about her children and grandchildren, but I am also a mother! I am the only daughter of Sister Yi. I was the one who was stupid and didn't treat her well. When Sister Yi was lost, I felt as if someone had betrayed her. It's like digging it out and roasting it on the fire! Your mother wants to persecute my daughter's marriage for the sake of other granddaughters! She wants to bully my daughter, but you still want me to endure it? "If you were a man, divorce me now!" If it's not convenient for you to leave the capital, I'll go! I'm going to Tartar to find my daughter! "

Sun's voice was trembling until the end, and she was sobbing.

Qin Huaiyuan's eyes were also red. He ignored Sun's fierce struggle and slowly raised his arms to hug Sun.

"Well, I didn't do well enough. We are not young anymore. You are breaking your body from crying. It is not worth it. We still have to live to watch Sister Yi give birth to children in the future, right? "

It would be fine if there was no one to coax her, but now she was leaning in Qin Huaiyuan's arms, breathing in the faint fragrance of books and ink on his body. Sun grabbed Qin Huaiyuan's lapel and finally burst into tears, crying and beating her his chest.

"It's all you! What kind of official are you doing! You worked hard for the Qin family, but why did you sacrifice my daughter! My daughter is not yet seventeen years old, she is still so young!"

Sun's worries, grievances and dissatisfaction that had been suppressed for a long time were vented without hesitation this time, and she buried her head in Qin Huaiyuan's chest and cried till the end of the night.

Qin Huaiyuan rested his chin on Sun's head, letting her cry and wet his clothes, and her eyes gradually turned red.

Seeing the couple like this, the second lady also sobbed and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. Thinking of that catastrophe, where her family and servants died, she couldn't help but feel sad.

The old lady was dumbfounded. She had never seen Sun in such a bad manner in all the years she had been here, and she actually dared to occupy her son's chest and cry!

She cried just now, but her eldest son didn't come to comfort her!

The old lady held her mouth shut, sobbed again, and muttered: "You have done evil, you are an unfilial son, you are an unfilial son..."

The second master rubbed his temples. Seeing that his eldest brother ignored the old mother, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and sit on the edge of the bed, handing the old lady a veil.

"Mom, don't be sad. You are the head of our family. You have crossed more bridges than we have walked. You are the most considerate of our children."
