Ji Yun felt depressed, but since Wangfei had ordered her, she couldn't do anything other than nod. She couldn't act on her own and ruin Wangfei's plans.
Thinking of this, Ji Yun could only nod and say with heartache, "But Wangfei will feel wronged like this. You've suffered so much for Wang Ye, and people outside are still talking bad about you. Now that you're home, you can't feel at ease and you're being slandered. If this continues, how long will you endure? You've done so much for Wang Ye, but Wang Ye doesn't know about it. Also, I don't know if Wang Ye will help his mother to misunderstand you. "
The more Ji Yun thought about it, the more conflicted she felt. The more she analyzed, the more she felt wronged for Qin Yining. Her tears were about to fall.
Qin Yining smiled and said, "There's nothing to feel wronged about. Maybe when I didn't know, he also suffered a lot and just didn't want to tell me. Also, even if Wang Ye helps Old Madame, there's nothing wrong with that. After all, she's his mother. "
"Ai!" Ji Yun felt helpless and sighed heavily. But she also understood that it wasn't good for her to continue speaking. Since Wangfei had thought things through, she could only comfort her and not sow discord. If she really disturbed Wangfei and Wang Ye's foster marriage, wouldn't that be a sin?
When Qin Yining returned to the guest courtyard, he had already adjusted his mentality and didn't look strange at all.
The maidservant was guarding outside. When she saw Qin Yining, she immediately came forward to greet him and happily welcomed him in.
As soon as he entered the central room, he was greeted by the warm air mixed with the fragrance of food. Qin Yining took off his cloak, walked around the screen, and entered the room. He saw Old Madam sitting at the head of the table. Eighth Miss and Qin Huining were standing on either side of Old Madam. Qin Huaiyuan was sitting next to Old Madam. Second Madam, Second Old Master, and Third Old Master were all sitting in order. Behind them stood Eldest Cousin Brother Qin Yu, Second Cousin Brother Qin Han, Second Sister-in-law Madam Meng, Fifth Cousin Brother Qin Xian, Tenth Cousin Brother Qin Rong, Eleventh Cousin Brother Qin Zong, and Cousin Nephew Qin Yuzhen.
As soon as she saw Qin Yining enter the door, Mammy Qin hurried to greet her with a smile.
"Oh, my great aunt, I missed you so much!" Mammy Qin bowed to Qin Yining excitedly.
How could Qin Yining accept Mammy Qin's salute? After all, she had served old madam all her life. She hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it and returned half a salute.
"How has Mammy Qin been?"
"Okay, okay."
As she spoke, she personally laid out a thick praying mat for Qin Yining on the floor.
Qin Yining knelt down and bowed to old madam properly.
"Granddaughter pays respect to old madam."
Although old madam didn't like Qin Yining, she still missed her after not seeing her for a long time. In addition, she had fallen ill twice this year, and her health was not as good as before. Furthermore, Qin Huaiyuan often whispered some things in her ear, so her thoughts were gradually being affected.
Therefore, when she saw Qin Yining, she didn't oppose her like before. Instead, she smiled and nodded repeatedly. "Quickly get up, quickly get up. Come here, come to grandmother. "
Qin Yining was a little surprised by old madam's attitude. However, when she saw Qin Huaiyuan smiling, she knew what was going on. She smiled and bowed to Second Old Master, Second Old Madam, and Third Old Master before going to old madam's side.
Old madam took Qin Yining's hand and let her sit down next to her.
"Good child, you've been away for a year. You've suffered."
"Granddaughter is ashamed to have troubled old madam."
"Aye, I've heard from your father. You bought back our family's old residence and renovated it, didn't you? "
Qin Yining smiled and nodded. "Yes, that's our home after all. The interior has been completely renovated, but the layout and furnishings haven't changed. It's still the same as it was before. When I returned this time, I stayed in Snow Pear Courtyard. As for the other courtyards, appropriate people have been arranged to look after the rooms. "
"Good, good, that's really good." When old madam thought of that residence, countless memories surged into her mind.
Ever since she married into Qin Manor, all the memories, good and bad, were entangled with that residence when the hall was still there.
Originally, when the country was ruined and the Family had sold their wealth, the residence, which was mostly burned down by the fire, was sold at a low price, and the money had long been used up. She didn't expect that one day, that old residence would be returned to the Qin Family.
In this way, even if she closed her eyes one day and went to see her elders and husband in the afterlife, she would have an explanation.
Old madam smiled, but her eyes were already filled with tears.
Second Madam hurriedly coaxed her. "You've been thinking about your granddaughter all day long. You should be happy that she's back. Why are you crying again? It's a happy occasion that our family has a regiment member. "
Everyone hurriedly coaxed her.
Old madam stopped crying and nodded repeatedly. "Yes, it's a good thing. It's a happy occasion. Your Second Uncle is also seeking a vacancy now. Your cousin and younger brother are both studying. Also, Eighth Sister and Miss Huining have already agreed to marry each other. They will be getting married in the new year. Our family's life is gradually getting better, and everything is stable. Even if I close my eyes one day, I won't let my ancestors down. "
"Old madam, don't say that. You're a person with Dai Fu. Our family's good fortune is still to come."
Everyone talked at once to coax old madam until old madam laughed. Qin Yining then asked with a smile, "Which family did Eighth Sister and Miss Huining get engaged to? Have you confirmed it? "
"It's already confirmed." Third Old Master smiled and said, "The other party is from a family of farmers and scholars. He's the second son of a concubine. I've seen him. That young man's temperament is very good. He's a good match for our Eighth Girl. In addition, our family has a relationship with Eldest Brother and Wang Ye. I believe that Eighth Girl won't suffer any losses after she gets married. "
Eighth Young Miss was Third Old Master's concubine's daughter.
Qin Huaiyuan said, "The one who looked at Sister Hui is also from a family of farmers and scholars. The other party is also the fourth son of a concubine. His ancestors have quite a lot of property and he's also the son of a concubine. Previously, they discussed a dormitory, but the girl who was supposed to be there fell ill and left. Langjun's marriage was delayed. Now that I've seen them, I feel that they're very good. They're from a family that knows their place. Thus, we decided on them. "
Qin Yining nodded and said with a smile, "If father and third uncle think they're good, then they're definitely good. When our family's girls go out, first of all, they can't be bullied. "
Eighth Young Miss and Qin Huining's faces burned. Perhaps it was because of the thought of waiting for their daughter to be married, but the two of them withdrew their original thoughts and focused on preparing for marriage.
Eighth Young Miss was truly satisfied.
Although Qin Huining sometimes thought about what would happen if Qin Yining didn't come back and she was still Qin Huaiyuan's concubine's daughter, what would happen in the end? But now, she had to rely on her Family Qin. She even had to rely on Qin Yining's identity as a Wangfei. Many of her thoughts were just thoughts in her heart. Qin Yining could become a Wangfei. She only hoped that she could also be a rich madam and live her own life. In the future, she would be content if she minded her own business.
Old madam smiled and said, "The food has already been prepared. Everyone, quickly take your seats. The food will get cold if you're late."
The whole family smiled and agreed. They sat around the three square tables according to their identities.
Qin Huaiyuan held a wine cup and was about to speak when a servant quickly walked in from outside.
