Chapter 375

Xia Qingsang was already smiling, and after drinking two sips of the tea served by Qiulin, she laughed so hard that her teeth could not see her eyes.

To be honest, he has been looking forward to this cup of daughter-in-law tea for several years.Now I finally got my wish and drank this cup of daughter-in-law tea!
After drinking the daughter-in-law's tea, a girl came over with a wooden tray.Qiu Lin looked over, but saw that there were jade, agate and other utensils in the tray, all of which looked moist and watery, and they were of great value.

At this moment, Xia Qingsang stroked her goatee, showing an amiable appearance, and said with a smile from ear to ear: "A Lin, now you are married to our Xia family, and you will be our Xia family in the future." Your daughter-in-law. You are a good boy, and our Xia family will definitely not treat you badly. This is the first time our father-in-law and daughter-in-law meet, father-in-law has prepared some small gifts for you here, please accept it."

Qiulin knew that this was the rule, so naturally he would not refuse.He smiled and said: "Then thank you father-in-law, and the daughter-in-law will not refuse." Qiulin called himself daughter-in-law for the first time, and found it extremely awkward, and now even his face became a little awkward.

At this time, Xia Ziling who was sitting next to Xia Qingsang stood up with bulging eyes and resentment, and said to Qiu Lin sullenly: "It's the first time my siblings enter Xia's house today, and I, the aunt, should also show something." Pull out a gold hairpin from the head, the golden hairpin is exquisitely carved, it looks radiant and very eye-catching. "This golden hairpin is my meeting gift for my younger siblings. I hope that my younger brother and younger siblings will be able to sing in harmony and grow old together from now on."

Xia Ziling almost finished the call through gritted teeth, even a deaf person could feel the sarcasm and disdain in her words.Now she was staring at the golden hairpin handed to Qiulin with bulging eyes, the red fire in her eyes almost ignited the golden hairpin.

In fact, it wasn't that she was reluctant to part with the golden hairpin, but how could a poor country girl like Qiulin deserve it?If she hadn't been beaten by her father and younger brother before, she would never have said such good things to this poor girl.

Qiulin naturally heard the disdain and sarcasm, but he kept silent.It would have been fine if her father-in-law and Xia Yan weren't there, she definitely wouldn't hold back and quarrel with this cheap elder sister.But at this moment, there are father-in-law and Xia Yan, and after the quarrel, the two of them are caught in the middle, how embarrassing it is!

Qiu Lin swallowed all his anger into his stomach, and spoke in a calm tone, neither feeling too alienated nor too affectionate. "Thank you big sister for giving me the golden hairpin."

Xia Qingsang was very relieved to hear Qiu Lin's calm words.He knows that his daughter has been spoiled and spoiled, and he has no time to take care of her, and now he has developed such a virtue.He was afraid that Qiulin would be impatient and quarrel with the eldest daughter on the spot, and it would be difficult to close the marriage at that time.

Fortunately, this little girl Qiulin is not such a reckless person, because of this momentary anger, she quarreled with the eldest daughter in front of him.Xia Qingsang felt more and more that this daughter-in-law was right. At this moment, he felt more and more that his son had eyes, and he said such a girl with eyes.

Feeling the approving gaze cast by his father, Xia Yan felt very terrified.Stretching out his arms, he grabbed Qiulin and hugged her in his arms, smiling brightly like spring flowers in March.He said loudly: "By my sister's auspicious words, don't worry, my sister and I will love each other and grow old together."

What Xia Yan said was not entirely to dispel the eldest sister's contempt for Qiulin from the bottom of her heart, he was making a promise to Qiulin!

All his life, he has made up his mind to go all the way to Hei, and grow old together with Qiulin.This is his promise to Qiulin!

Why didn't Qiulin understand Xia Yan's thoughts? Hearing the words that had already been said badly, Qiulin didn't feel that it was a uniform random promise.When these words came out of Xia Yan's mouth, it had the power to convince her.

Maybe it was said by others, Qiulin might think it was just perfunctory.But when Xia Yan said these words, Qiu Lin Piansheng was very convinced.She was firm that if Xia Yan could say it, he would definitely do it.

Qiulin felt relieved, the anger that was suffocating in his heart just now had disappeared, and now there was only a lot of emotion left.Qiulin knew that Xia Yan was not someone who made promises easily, and now that he made such a promise, he would definitely grow old with him.

Now, Qiulin feels that the luckiest thing in her life is to meet such a person who treats her sincerely, loves her and cherishes her!

Xia Yan's words encouraged Qiu Lin.Now she straightened her back and stood in front of Xia Ziling, without the slightest timidity to shrink back.

Xia Ziling was so angry when she heard her younger brother's swear words, she almost slapped the table with eyebrows and green eyes!She raised her almond eyes and lingered on Qiulin's face several times, but she really couldn't see any merits in this man. Such a country bumpkin dared to provoke her in front of her, she was really mad at her!
Xia Ziling's lungs were about to explode with anger, but at this moment, she really couldn't say anything else.Her father and younger brother had already beat her up before, so she wouldn't be so unreasonable and start a fight with Qiu Lin on the spot. Isn't this just a joke for people to see their Xia family?
Xia Ziling took several deep breaths before slowly calming down the anger in her heart, twitching the corners of her mouth, and said rather dullly: "Speaking of which, my brother and sister are really lucky, I'm not boasting, my little brother treats others well. Excellent. It is a great blessing for younger siblings to marry him."

Although these words meant to belittle her, Qiu Lin was not at all upset at the moment.Actually, thinking about it, what Xia Ziling said was also true.Xia Yan is like a high-ranking nobleman who overlooks all living beings, a slim white lotus without vines or branches; and she is a dogtail grass growing in the mountains and fields, although she is full of vitality, she is unknown.

Sometimes Qiu Lin also thought, if Xia Yan hadn't rescued her by the river before the meeting, the two of them might be two people who had no intersection.

Xia Yan said at this moment: "Okay, Ah Lin, didn't you also prepare presents for Dad and Eldest Sister, please ask someone to fetch them." Ask Qiulin, this is not what he wants to see.

After Xia Yan's reminder, Qiu Lin remembered.Just now, I was going to call someone to bring the things over, but was interrupted by the eldest sister, Qiulin only thought about how to deal with her, so that I would not lose face and not embarrass my father-in-law and Xia Yan?
Qiu Lin patted himself on the head in frustration, and suddenly realized: "Oh, look at my memory, I forgot all the important things. Come here, quickly bring the presents I prepared for my father-in-law and eldest sister."

When Qiu Lin came to Xia Mansion, she did not bring a dowry maid with her.The maids at her natal family are also very useful. If she takes one away, it will be an intangible loss to her natal family.After coming to Xia Mansion, Xia Yan gave Qiu Lin two maids, named Lotus and Plum Blossom. Although the names are a bit common, they are easy to remember!

At this moment, the girl named Lotus came in from outside the house holding a tray, and saw that there were new embroidered shoes, sachets and jade pendants on the tray.Although it is not as expensive as the jade, agate and gold hairpin that Xia Qingsang and Xia Ziling gave to Qiulin, it is better than the exquisite appearance, and it is hard to put it down just looking at it.

Qiulin felt inexplicably happy when he saw his father's eyes soften.From the tray, he took out a pair of cloth shoes, a sachet and a string of prayer beads made of rosewood.Looking at Xia Qingsang's gentle eyes and kind face, Qiu Lin seemed to be inspired, and said with a smile: "Father, these are cloth shoes and sachets made by my daughter-in-law, and this string of Buddhist beads. This is Qiu Lin Those who specially go to Ciyun Temple to pray have been consecrated by eminent monks, and they can be carried on the body to ensure safety."

Xia Qingsang listened to her words with incomparable sincerity, her eyes became softer, and when she took those things from Qiu Lin's hands, she couldn't put them down.Sincerely admired: "This embroidery work is really good. I never thought that after living for most of my life, someone still misses my old bones. Alin, you have a heart."

Xia Qingsang's words made Qiulin's face turn red, she lowered her eyebrows, took out something else from the tray, and held it in front of Xia Ziling's eyes, "Sister, this is what Qiulin gave you. You made embroidered shoes, and this jade pendant was carefully selected by Qiulin, I hope eldest sister likes it."

Although this Xia Ziling is not likable, she likes to put on a show.But after all, it's Xia Yan's older sister, so I always ignore her and treat her like a cloud of air that doesn't exist, right?

Xia Ziling's eyes were higher than the top, and she snorted slightly disdainfully, and said in a rather eccentric way: "My brother and sister have a heart." Xia Ziling snatched the thing from Qiulin's hand, and threw it to a little girl who was following beside her In his hand, he no longer cares about it.

At this moment, Xia Ziling yawned, with blue light under his eyelids, and said in a low voice, "It's just a tea ceremony, I pulled people up early in the morning, I haven't had enough sleep yet, I'll go back to my room to sleep first It's gone." After speaking, she stood up precariously, and at this moment, a well-dressed maidservant came over and helped Xia Ziling go outside the house.

Qiulin looked at the embroidered heel jade pendant that was casually held by the maid, and felt slightly sad and wronged in her heart.It seems that my intentions are destined to be ruined in vain.

After Xia Ziling left, Xia Qingsang sat up from the chair a little tiredly.He said to Qiulin in a soft voice: "A Lin, you must have heard A Yan mention his unworthy sister before. She is such a virtuous sister. You don't need to be familiar with her, just treat her as a child who hasn't grown up. The doll is ready."

Thinking about what Xia Qingsang said, Qiu Lin suddenly understood.Isn't that what happened?This Xia Ziling has an awkward personality, isn't she just like that child?Why did she bother to sulk with her?What's more, the most important thing is that she didn't spend her whole life with Xia Ziling.What kind of person is she? Thinking about it now, Qiulin doesn't think it has a particularly big influence on her.

Thinking of it this way, Qiulin suddenly felt remorseful, and the piece of cotton that was stuck in his heart suddenly collapsed and disappeared.
