144, Chapter 144

As soon as Qin's mother heard Grandma Qin calling her name, she knew that Aunt Han San had said something to her. Anxiety welled up in her heart. Although her mother-in-law loved her, she would stick to her when there was delicious food at home. She was not like other girls who had to work every day since she was a child. However, she didn't know what her mother would say to her this time.

Qin's mother walked out in an irritable mood.

Grandma Qin looks like a kind old lady. Grandma Qin is a different type. Grandma Qin is a shrewd, a bit powerful, but very kind old lady. And Grandma Qin's affection for others is that she is an old lady who is easy to get along with, but does not have Grandma Qin's shrewd appearance.

"Mom." Mother Qin walked to Grandma Qin, "Aren't you chatting with everyone? Why are you here? Are you going back?"

These words blocked what Grandma Qin originally wanted to say. She believed that her daughter also knew what she was doing here. In fact, before the Qin family became prosperous, she thought it would be good for Siya to marry Tadpole'er. Siya was her granddaughter and Tadpole'er was her grandson. They were close friends inside and outside, so it couldn't be better. But the third daughter-in-law didn't agree at that time, insisting that Tadpole was still young.

But now, the Qin family is prosperous, and Si Ya's biological brother is a general. Although she also hopes that her grandson will be well, she must also recognize the facts clearly. Si Ya is now an official lady, and Tadpole is a child of a poor family. People just don’t deserve it. But the third daughter-in-law kept talking, which made her upset. Moreover, the third daughter-in-law also said that she could try this matter, but if the Qin family doesn't agree, she won't talk about it.

She thought it would be okay to give it a try. But just now the third daughter-in-law came. She said that Qin's mother couldn't afford her natal family, so she disliked Tadpole's poor conditions and asked herself to speak. She didn't want to come, but the third daughter-in-law persuaded the third child, who begged her to come because he was aggrieved, so she had no choice but to give it a try.

But at this moment, Grandma Qin saw her daughter's expression and knew what it meant.

Grandma Qin sighed and said warmly: "I'm going back later. I have things to do at home and farm work to finish. Are you going to A Fang's place the day after tomorrow?"

When Qin's mother saw that Grandma Qin didn't ask about what happened just now, she didn't say anything about it. She focused on Grandma Qin's affairs and said, "No, the family's fields will be handed over to the second house. After the crops are harvested, the fields will be rented out." , the person who rented it out has already been found. It has been delayed for several days due to the matter of the fields and the running water mat. If he doesn't leave the day after tomorrow, A Fang's side will be worried. I can’t say it’s busy over here.”

Grandma Qin sighed, her eyes looking at Mother Qin were a little complicated. Naturally, she was sincerely happy that her daughter was enjoying the blessing. No one thought that her daughter would still be here today. "When you were born, you were just such a small one. I was so happy when you were born. In the blink of an eye, you married Tieniu. I saw that the Qin family was a good person and that the in-laws were sensible, so I agreed. Your marriage. Later, you also succeeded in giving birth to a son. A Fang was a filial son and could join the army in his father's place. Did he ever think that a filial child would be rewarded and that he would be able to make it today? "

Speaking of this, Qin's mother was also happy: "No, back then he secretly signed up for military service without telling us. When her grandma found out, she almost cried her eyes out. But this kid has big ideas. He was only sixteen at the time. Why did he have such a big idea and sign up for military service? It’s thanks to his big idea that he is where he is today. But as the elders, we still feel sad that our family has no one to rely on. It doesn’t matter. It’s not easy to get to where he is today. Therefore, neither my father nor his grandparents will allow anyone to ruin his reputation or affect his future.”

Grandma Qin said: "It's true that it's not easy for our poor families to produce promising children and grandchildren." No matter what the family, no one would allow their children's future to be ruined. That's a general who honors his ancestors and changes the lintel of his family.

Qin's mother said: "Mom, A Fang is your grandson. He has become promising. You will have many people to rely on in the future. If your brothers and sisters are not good to you, your sisters-in-law and sisters are not filial to you." , just tell me, in the worst case, you can follow us."

Grandma Qin couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this: "Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about? How can an old woman with a son live with her daughter?"

Qin's mother said: "Are we not allowed to be filial to our own mothers?"

Grandma Qin was happy when she heard this, but when she thought about it...she sighed deeply: "In the past, when A Fang was not yet developed, I thought about letting Si Ya and Tadpole make a date. Dear, I thought it would be good for Si Ya to marry her grandson. No one would bully her when she married into our family. After that, she was delayed and delayed until now. Si Ya is now a lady from the official family. ‌Follow her elder brother and sister-in-law. Yanyan is a smart and knowledgeable girl. She must have taught Siya well, right? "She has seen her grandson's wife, who is really good. She is beautiful and gentle, making people fall in love with her as soon as she is in the room.

Speaking of this, Qin's mother's face showed joy: "That's right, Yanyan has a lot of experience. Si Ya is with us, so she must be better than Yanyan. When she sent a letter back before the New Year, she said that she knew a lot of words and her needlework was better than before. She also used the pocket money her sister-in-law gave her to buy me a gift. This child really wasted money. How could I lack these things?" Although she said so, there was a hint of pride in her tone. "In the final analysis, Afang's wife is better. Si Ya and Shou Cheng are both there, and all the food, clothing and housing are spent by Afang and his wife. Afang is a man who doesn't care about the family, and he doesn't know that money is hard to earn these days. So, Afang's wife is still the first wife.

However, after we go to Yunxiang County, Si Ya and Shou Cheng will have to follow us. We will have a monthly allowance for the fields in the military camp there, and I will also have a salary from the imperial decree every month, whether it is to support Shou Cheng's studies, to save some money for Shou Ye to marry a wife, and to prepare more dowry for Si Ya in the future, it is enough." Fifty taels of silver a year is indeed enough. In the countryside, Li didn't even need to spend five taels of silver to marry a wife. But now the family conditions are better, whether it is a son or a daughter, she doesn't want to treat her badly. After the New Year, after receiving this year's salary, Daya's dowry must be supplemented. It's impossible to give Si Ya a good dowry and put Daya, who has already married, aside.

Speaking of this, Mother Qin smiled: "As a mother, I always hope that my children are well. When I and Fang's father got married, you worried about this and that. At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I always felt that your worries were unnecessary. Now I am also a mother, and I understand your intentions back then. Now, I am relieved about Fang. The remaining Shouye, Shoucheng and Si Ya, although they have a legitimate eldest brother to rely on, they have to stand up on their own in the end. Otherwise, can Fang and his wife support them for a lifetime? If so, even the closest eldest brother will cause conflicts." After everyone gets married, they will always take care of their own small family.

Listening to what Mother Qin said, Grandma Qin was deeply touched. Her daughter's words told her that she wanted to give the best to her children, whether they were boys or girls. Grandma Qin was not a person without measure, nor was she a person who didn't know what was good or bad. She knew that Tadpole was not worthy of Si Ya now, and she also knew the temper of the third daughter-in-law. How could her daughter marry her granddaughter to her parents' home? But she was always a little disappointed. But she also knew that if she forced it, the family relationship would be broken today. Not to mention that her daughter would be broken with her parents' home, even with her as a mother. If something happened to her husband in the future, then... But if she didn't force it today, the family relationship would still be there, and her parents' home would not refuse when they needed her help in the future.

Grandma Qin didn't say it in the end. People are good and think a lot. They always have to think about the future. "When you go out, you have to be careful. The road to Yunxiang County is a bit far, and you have to prepare what you should prepare on the road. You don't have to worry about things at home. Knowing that my eldest grandson is so promising, we will be fine at home." This is the truth. Their Ding family is the direct family of the general.

Hearing her mother say this, Qin's mother's eyes were red. Don't blame her for being selfish. Even if her parents wanted to borrow money, she would be willing to give it. But she would never gamble with her children's happiness. She knew that what she said today might hurt her mother, but what could she do?

Mother Qin said with red eyes: "Don't worry about me. We have Afang's subordinates to take care of us on the way. When we arrive in Yunxiang County, Afang and his wife will be there. I heard from Afang's subordinates that Afang is the most powerful official there, and no one will look at us. On the contrary, I am more worried about you and your father. We are going to Yunxiang County so far away. If anything happens to you, I can't take care of you. Mother, your father must take good care of himself. You still have to enjoy Afang and his wife. When I get there and settle down, I will talk to Afang and ask him to send someone to take your father over to live for a while."

Grandma Qin was overjoyed by what Mother Qin said. She was happy, but she would never go there. When people get older, they don't like to go out and walk around. After the mother and daughter talked for a while, Grandma Qin said to Mother Qin: "Then we will also say goodbye. I will go and say hello to your mother-in-law and will not disturb you."

Mother Qin did not try to keep her, as they did have a lot of things to do: "Then I will accompany you."

Grandma Qin and Aunt Qin were still chatting. When she learned that Grandma Qin came to say goodbye to her, she hurriedly said: "Mother-in-law, please sit for a while. We don't know when we will meet next time."

Grandma Qin said politely: "No, you are busy too, so we will not disturb you. Mother-in-law, thank you for coming to propose marriage that year. My daughter has the blessing to enjoy today."

Grandma Qin also said modestly: "Not at all. If it weren't for Yueying giving birth to Ah Fang who is so smart, our Qin family would not be here today. So, I also want to thank you for giving birth to Yueying."

The two old ladies complimented her. Seeing that Grandma Qin was determined to leave, Grandma Qin saw her off in person.
