Pang Xiao had long noticed that Qin Yining always inadvertently looked in a certain direction. When he heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle happily.
Qin Yining looked up at him in surprise, only to see that Pang Xiao was smiling. His phoenix eyes were long and slanted, which usually gave people a sense of fierceness. But at this time, when he grinned, it only made people feel warm and happy.
Qin Yining also couldn't help laughing. "What are you laughing at?"
Pang Xiao lowered his head to look at her. From his angle, he could see her large eyes and long eyelashes. The more he looked at her from this angle, the more adorable she looked. He didn't care that they were in front of the manor's gate. His large hand couldn't help but grab her waist and pull her closer to him.
"Sister Yi, do whatever you want. I won't sacrifice my body for someone's help and let my own people be wronged for no reason. "
Qin Yining was completely amused by the words "sacrifice his body". He couldn't help but gently punch him on the shoulder.
Pang Xiao also couldn't help laughing more happily.
It was normal for the two of them to get along so sweetly. The servants around them had long been used to it.
But in the eyes of some people, it was just an eyesore.
Yao Clan, who had just arrived at the door, rolled his eyes and coughed with a handkerchief covering his mouth.
Pan Keyu turned around and hurriedly bowed. "Old Master, Old Madam, Old Madam. Greetings."
Yao Chenggu nodded with his hands clasped behind his back.
Yao Clan said with a smile, "You are also here …"
He chatted with Pan Keyu.
Madam Ma didn't even look at Pan Keyu. She just looked at Pang Xiao and Qin Yining, who were talking and laughing. She also laughed.
"Look how nice they are."
Yao shi heard this and lightly snorted, "Improper."
Madam Ma was in a very good mood. But when she heard this, her face immediately darkened. "Improper? You say it as if you are very considerate! "
Yao Clan was stunned at first, then his face blushed.
It wasn't the first time that Madam Ma had scolded her. She was angry because when Madam Ma and Ma Zhongzheng had gotten married and got pregnant, she would scold her whenever there was something about women's morals and rules.
"How many years has it been? Mother, why are you still biting on it? If I knew what was proper, then Dai Fu wouldn't even be in this world! "
Mrs. Ma sneered, "You think you're proud?"
Yao Clan was so angry that his face turned red. He bit his lower lip and did not dare to talk back. Because Madam Ma always beat her up without caring about the occasion.
She didn't want to make a fool of herself in public!
Qin Yining and Pang Xiao had already seen Madam Ma and her entourage coming out. The two of them walked over together.
"Grandma.
”
"Hey. Dai Fu, you must be careful when you go out. You must pay attention to your safety. Your family is waiting for you. "
The reason Pang Xiao went out was to lead troops to suppress bandits.
When it came to suppressing bandits, it was a real fight. If things didn't go well, he would lose his life. Madam Ma was very worried, but she also knew that this was what Pang Xiao had to do. She couldn't stop him and could only earnestly remind him to relieve his worries.
Pang Xiao nodded seriously. "Grandma, don't worry. I've already prepared. Nothing will happen."
As he spoke, he pushed Qin Yining to Madam Ma. "I'm not at home. Grandma, please take care of Sister Yi."
Madam Ma beamed and nodded repeatedly. "Okay, okay. Don't worry."
Yao Clan and Yao Chenggu had been neglected for a long time and were unhappy. When they heard Pang Xiao's words, Yao Chenggu frowned.
Yao Clan's mouth was crooked.
But after all, they were also very concerned about Pang Xiao's safety. Yao Clan didn't want to be estranged from their son, so she didn't flare up at this time and didn't directly confront Pang Xiao.
Anyway, she was Qin Yining's official mother-in-law. When Pang Xiao wasn't here, she asked her daughter-in-law to set the rules. Who could say that she was wrong?
"Wang Ye, the troops outside the city are ready to go." Huzi came to report.
Pang Xiao realized that it was almost time.
He reluctantly squeezed Qin Yining's hand and said with a smile, "I'm leaving. I'll be back soon."
Qin Yining nodded with a smile.
Pang Xiao respectfully bowed to Yao Chenggu, Madam Ma, and the Yao Clan. Then he mounted his horse and left with a few of his attendants to join the troops outside the city.
Looking at Pang Xiao's back, Qin Yining's heart throbbed.
Even though they had been married for so long and their child was already one and a half years old, this man often made her blush and her heart warm. She couldn't help but want to look away. She was too embarrassed to stare at him in front of others, but she couldn't bear to miss a second of time with him.
She didn't know how other people would feel after marriage. Anyway, she and Pang Xiao were separated more than they were together, but they became more intimate and cherished each other.
Madam Ma watched Qin Yining eat and stared in the direction Pang Xiao left for a long time. She couldn't help but smile and say, "Okay, Yi 'er, don't look. He's gone far."
Qin Yining suddenly came back to his senses and said with a blush, "No, I was thinking about something just now. Grandma, let's go back."
Madam Ma didn't expose him. She nodded with a smile and turned back with Qin Yining.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Yao Clan with her hands folded and her handkerchief clenched into a ball. She was staring at Qin Yining coldly.
Qin Yining stopped and said respectfully, "Old Madam."
Yao shi sneered, but in the end, she was not stupid. She could not say anything unpleasant in front of Ma shi. She only said: "I heard people say that your needlework is good. I just happened to have some cloth cut out and wanted to make some winter clothes. Come and help me see what the flowers look like."
These were the things that women talked about in the family.
She said that she wanted to look at the flowers and do sewing. In fact, she wanted Qin Yining to set the rules.
Qin Yining wasn't surprised at all. He said respectfully, "Yes."
Madam Ma frowned.
Just as she was about to stop him, Yao Chenggu said with a smile, "The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are willing to be intimate. Don't stop them. Are we going to accompany the child for the rest of his life? Why don't we take the opportunity to ease their relationship now? "
Yao Chenggu's words spoke Madam Ma's mind.
She was old, and there would be a day when she had to leave. She wanted to see the Yao Clan have someone to rely on in her old age. She wanted the whole family to be harmonious and happy. She didn't want to be estranged from the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Madam Ma sighed and didn't stop him. Instead, she said, "Are you going to make winter clothes? Your father and I are going to make winter clothes too. I'll bring the cloth and the people to make it with you. "With her around, the Yao Clan couldn't make any trouble, right?
Yao Clan's face stiffened when she heard that. She looked at Yao Chenggu subconsciously as if asking for help, but Yao Chenggu didn't say anything.
Yao Clan could only nod. "That's good."
Qin Yining said with a smile, "I'm also planning to cut some old clothes for the two brothers. They've grown up a lot, right? The clothes I made before shouldn't be suitable for them. "
At the mention of her great-grandchildren, Madam Ma smiled happily. She held Qin Yining's hand and said, "The two children can walk now. They can say simple words and call me Great-grandma. It's just that the conditions don't allow it. I don't know if the children will still recognize me when they see me."
These words pierced Qin Yining's heart. At that time, she had no choice but to let the Sun Clan and Madam Ma take the children to Southern Yan and let Duchess Ding take care of them. The children were young and couldn't remember things clearly. Maybe when they met again, they wouldn't even recognize her as their mother.
Madam Ma seemed to realize that she had said something wrong. She couldn't help but pat Qin Yining's hand and said, "Mother and children are connected by heart. The children will be close to you when they see you. Don't worry."
Qin Yining said with a smile, "Yes, Wang Ye should have arranged for people to go to the south to pick them up. They should be here soon."
"Really?" Madam Ma was surprised. "That's great. We still have to make the clothes quickly. "
The two of them talked and laughed. They each asked people to bring needles, thread, and dustpans and sent them to the Yao Clan's house.
The Yao Clan's smile froze on their faces. They had no impression of what their grandchildren looked like, let alone how much they missed them. In her heart, she always felt that there was something wrong with the bloodline of the two children. In addition, she didn't like Qin Yining, so she naturally didn't have any expectations for them.
She wanted Qin Yining to set the rules, but she didn't succeed in the end.
Every time Qin Yining was called by the Yao Clan, Madam Ma would always come with him. Now that the Yao Clan saw Madam Ma, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. No matter how many plans they had, they couldn't carry them out. They were very depressed.
Helplessly, she could only think of ways to make Qin Yining unhappy to vent her anger for herself.
Pan Keyu was invited by the Yao Clan every day to talk.
"… So Keyu also knows how to make northern snacks?" The Yao Clan laughed and chatted with Pan Keyu while drinking tea.
Qin Yining and Madam Ma were sitting together sewing clothes for the children. When they heard the sound, they couldn't help but look up.
Pan Keyu was wearing a light pink robe and a pomegranate-red dress. She was delicate and beautiful like a flower. As if she sensed Qin Yining and Madam Ma's gazes, she straightened her back and said modestly, "I only know a little. If Madam Ma likes it, I'll make some next time. Please try it and give me some advice. "
The Yao Clan was happy to hear that and said, "Okay, you can also make some savory snacks. Let me tell you, Dai Fu loves to eat those. He knows how to make them himself, but he's busy with work and doesn't have the mood to cook. The people around him are disappointing.
They don't know how to make these. If you can make them well, Dai Fu will have a good meal. "
Qin Yining, who didn't know how to make snacks, was speechless.
Madam Ma felt awkward when she heard those words. She put on the thimble and picked up the half-finished soles. "Everyone likes different tastes. Don't tell me Dai Fu doesn't have a chef by his side? These days, as long as you have money, what kind of chef can't you hire? Sister Yi runs such a big business. How can Dai Fu's mouth suffer? Moreover, Miss Pan is a guest. Dai Fu specially ordered the servants in the outer courtyard to serve her well. You, on the other hand, are ordering people to make snacks. "
The Yao Clan originally put on airs in front of Pan Keyu. After all, she was the birth mother of Prince Zhongshun and had the title of nobility. Pan Keyu was born in a rich family. She was proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She was also beautiful and had always taken the initiative to get close to her. The Yao Clan found a lot of confidence in front of Pan Keyu. But now, they were tongue-tied after being scolded by Madam Ma.
The Yao Clan gritted her teeth.
She didn't believe that Madam Ma couldn't understand Pan Keyu's intentions. She didn't know what kind of witchcraft Qin Yining used to make Madam Ma especially like to go against her!
At this time, Qin Yining just finished using a thread. He held a bandage and looked up with a smile. "Before Wang Ye left, I had a discussion with Wang Ye. The weather is good now, and it's a peaceful time. I haven't had time to walk around the old capital, and I haven't gotten to know all the madams yet. So I plan to hold a Hundred Flowers Banquet at Changchun Garden in a few days and invite all the young ladies to come and gather. "
