Chapter 212 A Family of Parasites
Even if He Jiaojiao was unwilling, she had no choice but to get married because the imperial decree could not be disobeyed.
Because Qin Lang's hair has not grown out yet, getting married now would only make people laugh, so they kept putting it off.
It wasn't until the twelfth lunar month that they saw they could no longer delay the matter, so they had no choice but to discuss the marriage.
Although Qin Lang's hair had grown, it was too short to tie up, so he had to buy a wig and wear a hat.
At least I didn't lose face.
Even though Minister He was dissatisfied with Qin Lang, he still bought a house for He Jiaojiao. Although it was not as big as the one owned by the Lin family, it was big enough for her to live in.
He Jiaojiao brought a total of eight servants, including two personal maids who were responsible for He Jiaojiao's food, daily life, dressing, combing her hair, washing her, and managing He Jiaojiao's personal belongings.
A mother, an older servant, is responsible for giving He Jiaojiao advice when something happens, helping to take care of her children when she has them, and managing other servants.
There is a cook and a fire maid, who are responsible for cooking in the kitchen.
A groom is responsible for travel.
Two maids were responsible for cleaning, washing clothes and other miscellaneous tasks.
This was the most the He family could give. As for the accounting, the mother would do it, the shopping would be done by the groom and the maid, and the errands would also be done by the maid.
Because Minister He felt ashamed, he did not invite any guests to the wedding banquet of He Jiaojiao.
After Qin Lang's actions became known, his colleagues began to doubt his character, and no one was willing to attend his wedding banquet.
On the second day after their marriage, when Old Lady Qin and her family happily wanted to move into He Jiaojiao's house, they were driven out by the servants.
Old Mrs. Qin was stunned.
"How dare He Jiaojiao be so disrespectful to her mother-in-law?"
But she was pointed at by Tian's mother beside He Jiaojiao and scolded:
"I've never seen anyone marry into a family and bring their own mother along. Oh, it's not just my mother, there's also a group of vampires. All my brothers, sisters, and brothers are here. I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless..."
Mother Tian humiliated her.
Suddenly many passers-by gathered to watch.
If it were someone else, they would definitely feel ashamed, but who is Old Madam Qin? If she had any dignity, she would not act so arrogantly in the house that came as a dowry with the Lin family.
Old Madam Qin sat on the ground and burst into tears, telling how difficult it was to raise Qin Lang all these years. She had finally trained him to be a talented person, but his wife refused to let him recognize her as her mother.
"That's too much. No matter what, you can't deny me."
"Yes, I gave birth to him, raised him, and even paid for his education. If I don't acknowledge me, am I still a human being? Scholars have always been known to be heartless. It seems that this is absolutely true."
"This kind of person is worse than an animal. I heard that he married the daughter of Minister He. After all, she is a concubine's daughter, yet she dares not recognize her mother-in-law."
"Yes, the daughter of the Lin family was so good. I heard that Old Lady Qin always put her daughter-in-law above her. Seeing that the Lin family was in trouble, she insisted on divorcing her. Old Lady Qin deserved this fate..."
…………
When Old Lady Qin saw someone speaking up for her, she became even more energetic.
As for the unpleasant things and things that were not in her favor, she ignored them all.
The servant had no choice but to report to He Jiaojiao.
He Jiaojiao, who had originally wanted to live a good life with Qin Lang, glared at Qin Lang fiercely.
Qin Lang suddenly felt guilty, but he couldn't bear to see his mother suffer, so he advised: "Jiaojiao, my mother is old, and I don't feel comfortable letting her suffer in this dilapidated yard. You just..."
"You mean that my He family supports you and also has to support your mother?"
"It's not like I don't have a salary, so why can't I support my mother? He Jiaojiao, as a daughter-in-law, you should respect your mother-in-law. If I divorce you, even my father-in-law won't be able to say anything."
Qin Lang said angrily.
He Jiaojiao was so angry.
But what Qin Lang said was also true. Not being respectful to one's mother-in-law is a serious sin.
"Okay, I can let your mother live in my house, but your brother, sister-in-law, and younger sister-in-law, forget it!"
He Jiaojiao sent her personal maid Luzhi to bring Old Lady Qin in.
Green Branch nodded and understood what to do.
She came to the door with two servants and came forward with a smile: "Old Madam, you have misunderstood my young lady. How could she not respect her mother-in-law? The young lady was taking a nap just now. When she woke up, she heard that you had come, so she sent me to ask you to come home."
"Actually, the young lady had been complaining since early morning about why the old lady hadn't arrived yet. When she heard that the old lady had arrived just now, she was very happy and asked me to come out to pick you up."
Old Lady Qin snorted coldly when she heard this!
That's about right.
Luzhi helped her up from the ground and supported her towards the gate.
Only then did everyone stop talking.
Just as Boss Qin was entering the house with his wife and brother's wife, they saw the door slam shut with a bang.
The Qin boss and his wife, Qin Yuelian and Qin Sanlang were all confused.
What does this mean?
Old Mrs. Qin also heard the sound behind her. She turned around and saw that her other children had not yet entered the house and the door was closed.
Her face immediately turned stern, and she angrily shouted, "You little slave, you have no sense at all! How dare you close the door before the master and his men even enter?"
Luzhi's face darkened upon hearing this, and she loosened her grip on Old Lady Qin. "Master? What master? The master of our He family is our Lord He, the Minister. As for those people outside you mentioned, they are just some poor country folk. Do you still dream of becoming the master of our He family? You're dreaming!"
"presumptuous!"
Old Mrs. Qin didn't expect these servants to be so presumptuous. She remembered that when Lin Zhiyi married her son, every servant was respectful to the Qin family.
She raised her hand to hit Luzhi, but Luzhi dodged it, "Old Madam, you don't think that just because my daughter married into your Qin family, she has to support your Qin family of parasites, right?"
Old Lady Qin's face turned green with anger. She angrily asked, "Who are you calling a termite?"
Luzhi's face was full of sarcasm. "I'm not wrong. If they weren't termites, how could they dream of living in the He family's house and letting us girls support them?"
Luzhi raised her foot and walked away.
Old Madam Qin was so angry that her eyes widened and her face looked extremely ugly!
The Qin Lao Da and his wife, Qin Yuelian, Qin Lao San and others wanted to knock on the door, but they heard passers-by saying unpleasant things.
"Old Lady Qin has already gone in, what are these people still doing here? Aren't they here to send Old Lady Qin to enjoy a good life?"
"Of course they want to go in and enjoy the good life, just like they did with the Lin family's daughter, so they can eat the He family's daughter."
"They are so shameless. Madam Lin was so easy to talk to back then. If she were someone tougher than me, she wouldn't even let them in."
"Yeah, how could they have such a face? I heard that the Qin family rented a shabby yard in the city and couldn't even afford to eat."
…………
The family who originally wanted to go in and act arrogantly had their plans dashed.
Boss Qin felt ashamed.
Qin Yuelian and Qin Sanlang didn't want to leave at first, but Boss Qin scolded them, "You shameless people, hurry up and leave."
"Big brother."
As soon as Qin Sanlang opened his mouth, he was slapped in the face by Qin Lao Da. Qin Yuelian, who wanted to speak more, quickly shut her mouth.
