Chapter 308: Worrying about Marriage
Qin Yi was quite dissatisfied with the sixth brother's behavior of attracting children. After hearing about it, the third brother apologized on his behalf.
Qin Yi felt quite uncomfortable again, "I, I didn't want to lose my temper with him..."
The third brother's attitude was too humble. Qin Yi was just overwhelmed for a moment. When it came to Qin Xiangsong and others' studies, it was difficult for Qin Yi to calm down immediately.
However, things had calmed down by then, and facing the third brother's solemn apology, Qin Yi didn't know where to look.
"I understand." The third brother pulled the people behind him out, "but it's still my brother's behavior that was inappropriate."
"Sixth brother." The third brother turned sideways, "Speak."
"I'm sorry." Lao Liu said reluctantly, "I shouldn't have been there with the marshmallows."
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay." Qin Yi waved his hands repeatedly, "I was also wrong just now, don't mind it, I apologize to you too."
Lao Liu raised his eyes, his mouth corners pressed down, and he suddenly realized that Qin Yi was a little pitiful at this moment. "Forget it, since we are both wrong, let's not talk about this matter."
"That's good, of course." Qin Yi's nervous expression eased.
The matter was resolved, and the third brother took the sixth brother away, leaving Qin Yi here to repent. He was very dissatisfied with himself today and found that he could not control his mood.
During dinner, Qin Yi had no appetite. Qin Xiangnuan happened to pass by and heard a few words of conversation between Lao San and Qin Yi. She thought that Qin Yi was a little too extreme this time.
Qin Yi had some free time recently, so he worked harder on Qin Xiangsong's schoolwork, but he was extremely dissatisfied with the results. Qin Xiangnuan had no better suggestions and advised Qin Yi to take it slow, but the other party didn't listen.
"Yier, say something to your mother." Perhaps Mrs. Qin noticed Qin Yi's depression and kept him after dinner.
"Mom." Qin Yi didn't know the reason and felt a little nervous at this moment.
Old Madam Qin did not mention a word about what happened today, simply because she did not know that what she said at this time would make Qin Yi a little upset.
"Mom, how can you say such things in our current situation?" Qin Yi's face turned red with shame and anger, but Qin Yi himself couldn't tell how much shame and anger were contained in it.
"What's our current situation?" Old Madam Qin said displeasedly, "Is it you who are bad, or is it your family?"
Qin Yi never thought that Madam Qin would find another wife for him, and she happened to mention this matter to him today. "I'm a bad person, mother. I just got divorced not long ago, and now I can't pass the imperial examination..."
"Your elder brother has been harmed to this extent by the court. It is right that he does not take the imperial examination." Old Lady Qin coughed a few times as she spoke. Perhaps it was because her body had not been fully recovered and she was afraid that one day she would suddenly leave.
Therefore, before leaving, Old Lady Qin wanted to see that every child was living well. She was not worried about others, but now Qin Yi was the only one who made her most worried.
"Mom, I just want to say that I don't have any skills now, how can I harm others!" Qin Yi retorted helplessly.
But seeing that the effect was extremely poor, Mrs. Qin ignored what Qin Yi said and said to him firmly: "This matter is not up to you to decide. I will find a wife for you in the next few days. Don't give her a bad face when the time comes."
"Mother!" Qin Yi frowned. Old Madam Qin had rarely been so strong before. Qin Yi didn't know how to comfort her for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of Qin Xiangsong, "Mother, let's not talk about the fact that I divorced someone not long ago."
"Think about Song'er." Qin Yi's eyes lit up. "He's at an age where he's disobedient. If you find someone he doesn't like, your grandson will be the one who suffers."
How could Old Madam Qin not have thought of this aspect? When Qin Yi said this, she seemed relieved and her tone softened. "Yier, don't blame me. You don't have to worry about Song'er's affairs. I won't let anyone bully him."
Qin Yi was anxious, "Mom, we don't need to be so anxious."
"Don't say anything. You don't have to worry about this." Old Madam Qin waved her hand at him, a look of fatigue on her face. "Go back. Mother is tired."
Old Madam Qin's expression couldn't be hidden. Qin Yi hadn't noticed it before, but only now did he notice that Old Madam Qin's face was slightly pale. "Mother, are you feeling unwell?"
"Nothing, just an old illness." Old Madam Qin still waved at him and asked him to leave.
Qin Yi hesitated for a long time, looked deeply at Old Madam Qin, and then left. He met Ying Niang as he went out.
Ying Niang deliberately stayed here to wait for someone. After seeing Qin Yi come out, she wanted to go in.
But after taking a step, she was stopped by Qin Yi, who turned around to look inside the door and called Ying Niang to a place where Old Madam Qin would not hear their conversation.
"Miss Ying, has my mother said anything recently?" Qin Yi asked in a low voice.
Ying Niang had spent more time with Old Madam Qin than any of them, and she had heard a lot. At this moment, she glanced at Qin Yi's expression and told him everything she had heard about Qin Yi in recent days.
"She's not thinking about marriage for me." Qin Yi shook his head slightly. "Did she ever say she was feeling unwell?"
Ying Niang frowned. Qin Xiangnuan personally took care of Old Madam Qin's health. She had never heard Qin Xiangnuan say that there was a big problem, and neither had Old Madam Qin.
But why did Qin Yi ask this?
"Did Uncle Qin find anything wrong?" Ying Niang asked in a low voice.
Qin Yi couldn't explain it either. Madam Qin gave him an unusual feeling, and seeing her look so haggard made him feel nervous.
"Mom looked really bad, and Nuannuan just told us that she just needed to recuperate for a while and she would be fine." Qin Yi couldn't help but feel worried, "But now it doesn't look like that. Could it be that Mom is worried?"
"The old lady never told me this before." Ying Niang lowered her head, trying to find some clues from her memory.
"Perhaps I'm overthinking it." After a long while without Ying Niang's reply, Qin Yi said, "Miss Ying will need to pay more attention in the future."
Ying Niang came out of her thoughts and waved to Qin Yi, "Uncle Qin, you're too polite."
After separating from Qin Yi, Ying Niang couldn't help but want to observe Old Madam Qin when she saw her again.
"But Yi'er asked you to plead with me?" Old Lady Qin thought of Qin Yi asking Ying Niang for help, but she guessed the content wrongly.
Ying Niang wanted to refute her, but she thought it was okay to just let it go, so she continued, "Since the old lady has guessed it, I don't need to say anything."
Madam Qin chuckled and said, "It seems Yi'er has found the wrong person."
"Why does the old lady want to find a marriage for Uncle Qin at this time?" Ying Niang asked with a smile, because the old lady Qin had only mentioned this matter to her in the past few days, and she didn't expect it to be settled so soon.
