Chapter 753 Qin Meiniang takes advantage of the situation
When Qin Meiniang came to the prime minister's house, Mrs. Lin was talking about Beijing gossip with her daughter-in-law and granddaughter. Suddenly she heard the eldest maid came to report that someone from the Qin family came to the door and handed over a purse.
When Mrs. Lin heard about the Qin family, she was stunned for a moment: "Which Qin family?" Suddenly she thought of a figure and asked happily: "Is it the Young Master?"
The confidant nanny opened her purse, revealing the clear white jade, and handed it to Mrs. Lin: "This is what you rewarded the young concubine. If she comes to visit, there is no need to bring a token."
"Yes, she is that eldest aunt Qin. She was the former wife of Song Liyang, the head of the Ministry of Rites, who fell into the water and drowned during the Dragon Boat Festival this year. After the Qin family was defeated, she was abandoned by him and returned to her parents' family." The eldest maid explained Qin Meiniang's origins.
.
Mrs. Lin said: "Wherever the person is, please come in."
She had also seen Aunt Qin, who was gentle and soft-tempered. She also came to the door for some reason, and even came with a token, fearing that she wanted something.
Although Qin Meiniang took the token, she did not expect that this old lady would actually meet her. She was happy but also a little worried. She wondered if she would take advantage of the situation.
She came to Mrs. Lin's Shoukang Hall with an uneasy heart. Seeing the old lady with kind eyes and smiling face, Qin Meiniang bowed down and said, "Qin's Mei Niang pays her regards to the old lady and wishes her good health."
"Okay, get up quickly. Boss, wife, help her up quickly. You girls, please serve tea and give me a seat."
Mrs. Lin smiled and stepped forward to help her, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we last met when Master Yuncheng was giving a lecture at the Dharma Field of Huangjue Temple."
Qin Meiniang also saluted her and said with a smile: "I'm sorry that Madam still remembers me."
Mrs. Lin asked: "Why did you come to Beijing? But Young Master, I have something to ask of you?"
Qin Meiniang's face turned slightly red and she said: "I would like to thank the old lady for meeting me, a little woman who has only met me two or three times. To be honest, I have no choice but to come to the door this time. I am also the girl from Xi'er before coming to Beijing."
She gave me some guidance. If there was no other way, I wouldn't want to borrow her favor. It's really..."
As she spoke, tears welled up and fell down.
Mrs. Lin was surprised and hurriedly stepped forward, patted her and said, "Hey, this is so good, why are you crying? If you have something to say, tell her slowly. We will definitely help if we can."
Qin Meiniang wiped her tears, stood up and knelt in front of the old lady, saying: "Old madam, I came here to ask for your help to help the young lady bring her daughters back to protect them from evil hands."
Mrs. Lin frowned and said, "Get up and say it."
Qin Meiniang sniffed, took a sip of the tea handed over by Mrs. Lin, thanked her, and calmed down a little. Then she thought about how the Qin family was defeated, why she and her daughter were abandoned by the Song family and returned to her parents' home, and then several times.
Months ago, how Qin Liuxi saw his eldest daughter's face and calculated her fate, as well as what happened after coming to Beijing.
"...He is just dead. Since he is Yuyan's biological father, the fact that the sisters came to attend the funeral is because of their superficial father-daughter bond. Otherwise, even if they don't return to Beijing and only observe filial piety in Li City, who can say
What? They have been abandoned, and they have established a female household with me, taking my surname." Qin Meiniang gritted her teeth and said: "The Song family's plan is disgusting. They want to sell my son to seek glory. It is really disgusting. I am really disgusting.
I can fight them to the death, but that only leaves my son with no hope. I am a divorced woman, and my natal family has been defeated again. I can't fight for the time being. I have no choice but to come here shamelessly, hoping that the old lady will come forward to help me take my daughter away.
Come out, I would like to set up a longevity tablet for the old lady."
Old Mrs. Lin snorted: "It's really ugly for the Song family to eat so well. I'm still in the period of filial piety, but it's really abominable to have such a scheme against a pair of girls who have been kicked out of the family."
Mrs. Lin also looked disgusted and said, "They are not afraid of losing face if they are so dirty during the filial piety period."
"If they want face, they won't abandon the girl. Later, they will think of the benefits they can bring, and do everything possible to get the girl back." As the saying goes, people become better with age. The Song family has done it so obviously. Who is here?
Not knowing the twists and turns here, the old lady naturally understood what the Song family meant.
In one sentence, it is nothing more than selling a girl for glory.
Mrs. Lin looked at her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, if not, I will invite them here in the name of Tang Yatou. After all, they are all young girls of about the same age. I said that I knew they had returned to Beijing and wanted to meet them."
As for the Song family's doubts about how the two sisters Qin Yuyan knew the Xiangfu girl, they didn't just make it up.
Mrs. Lin shook her head: "Tang'er's name is not big enough, and their grandmother is holding them back on the grounds of serving the sick and observing filial piety. What can you do? It's me, just say that Mei Niang is here as a guest. I heard that Yu Yan
The girl is very popular, let her embroider my forehead, and come here to decide the pattern."
Qin Meiniang was overjoyed and agreed.
Mrs. Lin looked at Qin Meiniang again and said: "Although Prince Zhao is not very good, he is still a descendant of the clan. Now that you and your daughter are in destitution, if she really becomes the princess of the county and a wife of the clan with status, are you really unwilling?"
"
Qin Meiniang smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Old madam, you don't have to test me. In the past, I also thought about my daughter marrying high, but it was just better than the Song family. After all, her father and I were both concubines, and we were not very dignified. Later, we were not.
I dare to think about it. Prince Zhao is a son of the clan. To be honest, he doesn’t want to find a successor with some family background? The Song family said it is a successor, and it will work out. If Prince Zhao regrets and only wants to take a concubine, what can anyone do?
He? I just want my son to find a son who knows both coldness and hotness. It is better for the young couple to discuss things carefully than to waste time in a wealthy courtyard and feel unhappy."
Mrs. Lin had some admiration in her eyes. She was quite sober at the critical moment and was not fooled by false wealth.
Without further ado, since the Song family is already making arrangements, it is best to get the two sisters out as soon as possible to avoid being really wasted.
Mrs. Lin sent her confidant, Grandma, to pick up the Song family in person. Qin Meiniang wanted to follow, but she stopped her.
"Since you are a guest at my place, just wait, and the old mama will naturally know what to say." Mrs. Lin said: "Tell me, the young master told her fortune, and said she will marry late?"
"Yes." Qin Meiniang told Qin Liuxi the fate again.
Madam Lin rested her head on the Kang table with one hand and said, "If Prince Zhao knew that this girl would marry her husband at an early age, he would be very angry at the Song family."
Mrs. Lin smiled: "Mom, Prince Zhao goes to Changyin Tower every afternoon to walk the birds."
Prince Zhao likes birds, and Changyin Tower has the most precious bird species, so he must go there.
"Then ask someone to make arrangements. Make sure Prince Zhao knows about the danger. If this is overcome, the bird will not be able to escape."
Mrs. Lin agreed.
Qin Meiniang blinked, could she still play like this?
