"I'm old, I'm old. I don't have the complexion of when I was young, let alone agile. Look at me now, I'm trembling when I walk. Alas, I'm old, I'm really old."
Old Madam Qin laughed and sighed, but she couldn't hear anything else.
When they were young, Old Madam Qin was also a strong woman, and so was Old Madam Qin. The two of them had worked together in the same agency, so there would be some friction between the two of them.
Later, they got married and had children. One married a diplomat, and the other married a military officer. Their family backgrounds were similar. Even if they didn't compare themselves, their colleagues in the agency would.
Moreover, the two of them were two of the famous "Three Iron-Blooded Wives" in the agency. If they didn't compare themselves with them, who else could they compare themselves with?
They weren't bad friends when they were young, but they didn't have any contact in private except for work, even when they grew older.
The older generation knew that the two old madams of the Qin family and Family Xia didn't see eye to eye when they were young, and they still didn't see eye to eye when they were old. Even if they had worked in the same agency and sat in the same office, they still didn't have any contact.
Now that they suddenly buried the hatchet, it was no wonder that Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle were surprised.
They were all very surprised, but they didn't show it on their faces. The visitor was a guest, and she was also an old woman. The younger generation didn't have the right to talk.
Soon, the two old madams pulled each other and chatted intimately. There was no tit-for-tat like when they were young.
Behind them, the two old men also laughed and chatted. There was no grudge between the old men, but because their wives couldn't tolerate sand, they had always been friends with gentlemen and didn't have a deep relationship. Otherwise, with the friendship of visiting abroad many times, they would definitely be good friends.
"The Qin family is stronger than the previous generation. The youngest diplomat in your family is a role model for young people. He's young, but he has the demeanor of your youth. His future is limitless, limitless! "
The one who spoke was the old man. He praised Qin Xiu at first sight. It wasn't polite words, but sincere praise.
The Old Master was most concerned with national affairs. How could the Old Master not know Qin Xiu, a young and promising diplomat who fought for the glory of the country?
He even said to the Old Madam many times, "The Qin family is also a little strange. Every generation, there will be an outstanding man, but there will also be a man who will give others a headache. It's still the same in this generation!"
In Qin Xiu's father's generation, his youngest son had given birth to an illegitimate son, Qin Yi. If not for Qin Xiu's father, Ambassador Qin Dingkang, who had some tricks up his sleeves, this matter would have been known by everyone.
When it came to Qin Xiu's generation, the illegitimate son Qin Yi, who was recognized by the Qin family, was also a disorderly person. He used the living signboard of the Qin family to live a good life in the capital. He was a typical dandy who did not do anything.
The Old Madame also said, "Strange." It was indeed the case. A good bamboo shoot was followed by a bad one. It had been this way for generations and had never changed.
In Old Master Qin's generation, it was his younger brother who made trouble. At that time, there was a secret rumor that Ambassador Qin Dingkang's younger brother was not actually his biological brother, but the flesh and blood left behind by Old Master Qin's younger brother. Because of this, another illegitimate son was born.
However, these were old stories. Now, except for the older generation who still knew some inside stories, few of the younger generation knew. The same was true for the new nobles in the capital. They didn't dare to secretly discuss the Qin family's affairs.
Master Xia and the Old Madam, who knew the inside story, were even more unlikely to say anything.
