Chapter 391 Homesickness
"My Lord, you actually doubted me?" Qin San, a man of few words, spoke up at this time, because he got along well with Lieutenant General Lu, and he was deeply saddened by the death of Lieutenant General Lu.
Qin Hanzhang remained silent. With Lieutenant General Lu's death, he was prepared to keep his suspicions to himself forever. He also kept his promise and brought Lu Zhiqing into the Marquis' Mansion to be his sworn sister.
But I didn't expect that Su Qianqian's entry into the Ministry of Personnel would confirm that suspicion.
"Has any news been sent from Jinning?" Qin Hanzhang collected his thoughts and asked.
"It has been sent out. Madam, you have brought the head of the family back. It was really an accident that helped. Madam is really a lucky star."
Qin Shiliu grinned. It was rare for him to praise a woman. He always thought that women were delicate and troublesome.
"Madam is not only blessed, but also... so wise that she is almost a demon." Qin San blurted out.
Qin Hanzhang looked up and stared at Qin San. Qin San bowed expressionlessly and said, "My lord, I will go out and arrange the manpower for tomorrow." As he spoke, he stepped out.
Qin Shiliu followed him out while holding back his laughter.
Qin Hanzhang thought about what Qin Shiliu and the others had heard, and then thought of Su Qianqian, "Too smart to be a demon..." He whispered these four words and couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.
Before dinner, the Qin family would go to Fushou Hall first. The old lady did not want the younger generations to visit the elders every morning and evening, so this was considered as the younger generations greeting the elders, so generally everyone was there.
Qin Yuqing changed her previous shy personality. In just a few days, she became much more lively and cheerful, and even became a chatterbox.
"The swordsmanship of the second brother of the Zhou family is really superb. With just a few moves, he was able to overwhelm those students with some basic skills!
Originally they thought he was just an ordinary martial artist invited, and wanted to test the second brother. But the second brother said nothing and just practiced a few moves, "Shua, shua, shua", and those young men all obeyed obediently! ”
Qin Yuqing gestured as she spoke.
The third old lady was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. Her good daughter finally looked like a member of the Qin family. When she looked up and saw Qin Yuzhuo listening with her ears perked up and smiling, she winked at Qin Yuqing:
"Tell me more. Your third sister loves to hear it."
"How could I like to listen? When I came here, I heard Xiaoliu talking nonstop and no one else could get a word in." Qin Yuzhuo hurriedly denied.
"Didn't my third sister go to the academy today? I clearly saw..." Qin Yuqing looked at Qin Yuzhuo strangely.
"I didn't go, you saw it wrong!" Qin Yuzhuo interrupted Qin Yuqing loudly.
"How could I be wrong..." The little girl was unhappy and was about to argue, but Su Qianqian said, "Yuqing, is there anything interesting in the academy? Third sister-in-law wants to hear it."
Qin Yuqing immediately gave up arguing about who was right and who was wrong and started talking about other things with great interest.
"Professor Xue is really popular. Her classes are always full, so she has no choice but to add one more class. Wherever she goes, there are people following her, some asking about her homework, and some giving her gifts, but Professor Xue never accepts gifts."
"Third sister-in-law, you don't know that in the past few days, our Lanxiang College has become a household name in Xijing. Studying in Lanxiang is a glorious thing. When you wear a student robe after school, people will ask you about it with envy."
Qin Yuqing was very proud, and her description was a little exaggerated.
"Sixth sister, you will be a celebrity in the future, the number one female blacksmith in Xijing City, Miss Yuqing!"
Qin Yuping teased Qin Yuqing deliberately, but Qin Yuqing refused to let him go and went to catch Qin Yuping. Fushou Hall was much more lively than usual.
Madam Qin enjoyed watching the younger generations playing. These days, her ears and eyesight were sharper than before, her hair had gradually turned darker, her body felt lighter, she ate well and slept well, and she really felt like she was returning to youth.
All this was thanks to Su Qianqian. Madam Qin looked at her granddaughter-in-law who was sitting beside her with a smile on her face and looked like a little fox, and secretly thanked the gods and ancestors.
"The day after tomorrow is the day for ancestor worship. Tomorrow the farm will send three sacrificial animals. Instruct them to clean up the place."
Mrs. Qin thought of her ancestors' special instructions.
"Don't worry, grandma. Your granddaughter-in-law knows." Wang Yuke agreed quickly. Now she is in charge of all the affairs in the mansion. She will ask Su Qianqian and the elders to make decisions on major matters.
"On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, we will worship our ancestors and prepare for the New Year. This year is the first reunion year for our Qin family in five years, so we must have a good time."
Seeing that Madam Qin was in high spirits, Mrs. Du also mentioned it.
"That's right. Without that worry in our hearts, our family will be reunited and celebrate the New Year happily. Grandma has prepared a lot of red envelopes. Whoever says the most auspicious words will get the most!"
Madam Qin said cunningly.
Everyone laughed, and the little girls were thinking about where to learn auspicious words.
Su Qianqian was in a low mood. The New Year was almost here. She had been in this place for more than five months. She wondered if time in that world worked the same way as here. If so, it should be around the Dragon Boat Festival there.
She stays here from summer to winter, while her mother takes care of her alone from winter to summer. She doesn't know how long it will take before she can leave here and go home.
There are people over there who are worried about her...
"Qianqian, it's time for dinner." Mrs. Du's gentle call brought Su Qianqian back to her senses. When she looked up, she saw Qin Hanzhang looking at her intently.
Su Qianqian was a little absent-minded during dinner. Even her favorite potatoes in batter failed to arouse her appetite.
After dinner, Su Qianqian got down to business. She repeated what Steward Lu had said to Madam Qin and several other senior executives, which naturally shocked the Qin family again.
Qin Hanzhang remained silent, looking at Su Qianqian from time to time. He had a hunch that Su Qianqian was in a bad mood.
Qin Hanzhang did not go to the study that night. He took a book and read it at the table, occasionally looking up at Su Qianqian.
Su Qianqian was embroidering a purse without much interest, following the pattern of the torn purse. However, her embroidery was already poor to begin with, and this time she made mistakes again and again.
"Aning, what's wrong?" Qin Hanzhang finally couldn't help it, sat next to Su Qianqian and held her hand.
"It's okay." Su Qianqian had no way to explain that she missed home and her mother.
"No matter what, you can tell me. If I can't help you, I will find a way for you." Qin Hanzhang said in a deep voice, his eyes fixed on Su Qianqian's face, his heart beating a little fast.
"Is anything okay?" Su Qianqian looked at Qin Hanzhang's peach blossom eyes, in which her own figure was reflected.
"Yes." Qin Hanzhang answered softly, his heart beating faster.
"Then... can I have a bowl of ice cream? I'm hungry." Su Qianqian spoke after a moment of hesitation.
"No... okay." Qin Hanzhang agreed reluctantly and told Su Mu to prepare it for Su Qianqian, secretly breathing a sigh of relief in his heart.
For some reason, he was afraid that Su Qianqian would make a request that he could not accept.
Su Qianqian also breathed a sigh of relief, and she almost said that she wanted to go home.
