Beautiful woman

Chapter 8 Chapter 8 The Zhou family cancels the engagement

The person coming from the Zhou family was a woman who was dressed quite decently.The Zhou family was from a scholarly family, and the woman who claimed to be Zhou Xu's wet nurse was also very polite in her speech.

The Zhong family was stunned for a while, and it took them a while to realize that Zhou Xu's wet nurse was here to cancel the engagement.

Retire!
The Zhong family all looked at Qin Xiangxiang.

Qin Xiangxiang's face was a little shocked, obviously he didn't expect that he could still be divorced.Could it be that Zhou Xu found a better little lady?Unlikely.Well, was it because her father was in trouble that the Zhou family broke off the engagement?Gee, this Zhou family is really ambitious.

Wu Jiayi couldn't help but jumped out: "We are getting married in a few days, why are we canceling the engagement? Our eldest wife is already close, and the engagement is canceled, how can we talk about other marriages?"

Unexpectedly, Wu Jiayi was quite generous.

Qin Xiangxiang thought this in his heart, and Wu Jiayi said angrily: "You took the initiative to cancel the engagement. We will not return the gift you promised to give."

Qin Xiangxiang suddenly had a bold idea. The Zhong family might have sent the gift to her parents' family directly when the Zhou family ordered it.

Zhou Xu's wet nurse obviously got the instructions from her master and did not argue about it: "Of course there is no need to refund it." Anyway, she didn't have much money.When the Zhou family fell in love with Qin Xiangxiang, it was because she was a little transparent like her father didn't love her and her mother didn't. The gifts she made were not heavy, and the total amount she paid was not even worth two cents.

So the decision to cancel the engagement was made inexplicably.

This did not affect the mood of the Zhong family. They continued to sit down to eat, but Qin Xiangxiang took the crystal elbow away.

Hongxiu was in a daze when a plate of crystal elbows was stuffed into her arms.

Before Tianxiang could recover, a plate of golden chicken was stuffed into her arms.

Zhong Youzhi stood up, his beard trembling with anger: "Mrs. Qin, although I am not your biological uncle, I can still teach you a lesson!"

Qin Xiangxiang was still looking at the dishes on the dinner table: "As long as you know your identity."

She put a plate of seasonal vegetable soup into her arms.It has both meat and vegetables, so it's a good meal.

Wu Jiayi spoke quickly: "Your mother has to tell you that if you don't obey, I won't give you the [-] yuan dowry!"

Sure enough, the money is in the hands of the Zhong family.

Qin Xiangxiang smiled sweetly: "Whatever, anyway, now that I have been annulled, I don't know when I can get married, so I'll trouble this mother to take care of it."

Wu Jiayi was not very old, and when Qin Xiangxiang called her mother, she was so angry that the pink on her face fell off again.

Qin Xiangxiang led the two maids away quietly.

Wu Jiayi was so angry that she was about to throw her chopsticks, but Mrs. Wang quickly stopped her: "Madam, you can't do this."

Wu Jiayi sneered and said: "Mrs. Wang, why didn't you say something to stop that little hoof from being so domineering here? Didn't you say that that little hoof is usually timid and has no temper at all? Look, my sister As soon as she leaves, she will become the king of the Qin family."

In fact, Mrs. Wang was also very puzzled.In the past, when the madam made things difficult for the eldest lady, the eldest lady never complained and huddled in her own small yard, like a transparent person.That's why she never took her seriously and thought Qin Xiangxiang was a good person.

Why did Mrs. Qin seem to be a different person once the master and his wife left?

Mrs. Wang was thinking as she comforted Wu Jiayi: "Madam, don't worry. This lady has been annulled. You can find another marriage for her. The master and his wife are not here. No matter how powerful the lady is, she can't compete with the number of us." What's more, in Mrs. Wang's heart, the eldest lady is not powerful to begin with.

Wu Jiayi looked at Mrs. Wang.No wonder this old woman was so important to Mr. Zhong. Tite left her as the housekeeper. It turned out that she was really cruel and ruthless.

With this thought in mind, she said hypocritically: "You can save yourself the trouble. I never leave the house without taking the first step, and I don't know any good husband of the right age in Kyoto. How about you recommend me, Mrs. Wang?"

Mrs. Wang sneered in her heart.The Zhong family is only a small courtyard, so there is no second door.If it weren't for his wife's constant support for her mother's family, Wu Jiayi wouldn't be able to wear such good clothes.Madam is indeed right, Wu is the best at taking advantage of others.

She also smiled falsely: "I have always heard that the eldest lady is the best at asking questions. How can such a trivial matter trouble the eldest lady." After she praised Wu Jiayi, she immediately fell silent.

There was so much hatred in Wu Jiayi's heart, but when she thought of Qin Xiangxiang's appearance just now, and felt that she would not choose an "excellent" husband for Qin Xiangxiang herself, the thorn in her heart became fierce.

She sighed: "Mother Wang, I don't have to worry about this. If it weren't for that yellow and white thing, other people's mouths wouldn't be able to pry open."

Mrs. Wang's face immediately turned ugly.

But remembering the madam's instructions, I had to endure it: "Don't worry, madam, I understand."

The deal was concluded and Wu Jiayi had a great appetite.

The rest of the Zhong family seemed not to have heard the conversation between Wu Jiayi and Mrs. Wang, and just focused on eating.

It can be seen that the Zhong family follows Wu Jiayi's lead.

Mrs. Wang didn't show it on her face, but she scolded Wu Jiayi in her heart.

Wu Jiayi is a good person, how could she not be aware of what Mrs. Wang is thinking.But if she had any sense of shame, she would never not give food to Qin Xiangxiang.

The two have their own agendas, but they have the same goal.

Back in the small courtyard, Hongxiu and Tianxiang still felt like they were in a dream.Madam, she must be possessed by an evil spirit.Otherwise, why would he do something unusual from his behavior over the past ten years?

Qin Xiangxiang thought about picking up the food: "Eat quickly, it's already cold. Oh, these crystal elbows are for the two of you. The shape complements the shape. Your hands must be very good."

Shape complements shape... Hongxiu and Tianxiang stared at the chubby, greasy crystal elbow, and then looked at their green-white hands. For a moment, they couldn't help but think about whether they were grateful to Qin or angry.

But after all they had done rough work, the two of them were already very hungry, and they didn't care about maintaining a slim figure, so they finished the food in a short time.

Qin Xiangxiang said: "If you have blisters on your hands, don't wash the dishes."

If they don't wash the dishes, should the eldest lady do it?The eldest lady is so considerate of the servants?

Qin Xiangxiang said: "At dinner time, go to the big kitchen to get the food, and then bring the bowls and chopsticks over."

Hongxiu and Tianxiang: "...Yes." Since the eldest lady is possessed by evil spirits, how can she help wash the dishes?They were really confused.

Qin Xiangxiang was actually quite tired, but she remembered running the foot shop. After dinner, she asked Hongxiu Tianxiang: "Are there any books about general affairs in my father's study?" She was eager to know more about Sheng Guo. various laws regarding running a business.

Hongxiu did not betray her old master just because she ate Qin Xiangxiang's crystal elbow. Hearing this, she looked at Qin Xiangxiang warily: "We have sealed the master's books, and insignificant others cannot touch them. "

Being compared to an insignificant bystander, Qin Xiangxiang was not annoyed. He only glanced at Hong Xiu gently and said, "You are loyal to my father and deserve praise. But you are so smart, why haven't you realized that at this moment? You and I are just grasshoppers on a rope. My father was kicked out of Kyoto, leaving me alone to deal with him in Kyoto. When he can return to Beijing depends on my level of effort. And my level of effort, It also depends on how quickly I make money. Not to mention that I have been disowned by the Zhou family, but I have not been disowned by the Zhou family. Just because the Zhou family is poorer than mine, can I take care of my father's affairs? "

She goes to the end.

Hongxiu and Tianxiang were shocked.Madam Qin, how could she say such a thing?

The two were once again convinced that Mrs. Qin must have been possessed by an evil spirit when she went to Baoxiang Temple.

However, what the lady said does make sense.Most everything in this world is inseparable from power and money.If Mr. Qin wants to come back, he really has to use money to open up his joints.

But just for that dilapidated foot shop, if the emperor hadn't shown great kindness, I might not be able to come back for the rest of my life, right?

Just when Hongxiu and Tianxiang were hesitant, Mrs. Wang came again.This time she gloated: "Madam, the people from Dali Temple are looking for you for questioning."
