Yang Haiyan knew that the Qin family were all open-minded, especially Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin, who had everything in mind, so she would not play tricks on such an old person, and said frankly: "Don't hide it, Grandma, I have asked Nanny Lian to tell A-ma. I thought that with A-ma as a biological sister, it would be inconvenient for me, a nephew's wife, to entertain my uncle."
Grandma Qin said: "You did the right thing."
Military camp field
It was just past noon, and Qin's mother was resting. Thirty soldiers had already eaten. At this time, the maid sent by Yang Haiyan and the maid she hired were cleaning.
In fact, there were two people to help, and Qin's mother still needed to be busy. Someone washed the vegetables and someone washed the dishes, and just gave some instructions when cooking. However, although there were 30 soldiers eating, there were only two dishes and one soup. The meals were decided by Yang Haiyan in advance. Each meal had one meat, one vegetable and one soup. It seemed that three dishes were a lot, but in fact , they were not much.
This meal was like a layer of rice, with a layer of vegetables on top of the lunch box, and then a few pieces of meat, and then a bowl of egg drop soup. When there was no meat, there would be scrambled eggs. Anyway, there were vegetables at every meal, even if there was less, they would be given. Therefore, the soldiers were active in training, working, and feeding chickens, ducks and pigs every day, because these were their rations.
These soldiers ate better than at home, so they were very grateful to General Qin and very loyal.
"Madam...Madam..." Nanny Lian called out as soon as she got off the carriage.
Qin's mother was resting, and she came out of the house when she heard Nanny Lian's voice. Qin's mother had been a peasant woman all her life, and she didn't feel that she was already a royal concubine. Besides, she still liked the life of a peasant woman. She was uncomfortable with everything being in accordance with rules. For her, living in the military camp and fields was not as comfortable as living in the general's mansion. Next to the military camp and fields was a farmland. Some women would pass by here when they went to the stream to wash clothes. Some of them knew Qin's mother and would come to chat with her. She was very comfortable.
Of course, those who came to chat were also because someone in the family was a soldier under Qin Fang, and everyone knew that this person was the mother of General Qin, so they came. Some came to make friends, and some had no other intentions. Regardless of the purpose, at least Mother Qin was quite lively.
Mother Qin was still very enthusiastic about Nanny Lian. She knew that her daughter-in-law valued her, so she gave Nanny Lian face: "Nanny Lian, why are you here?"
Nanny Lian first bowed to Mother Qin, and then said: "Madam, the county lord asked me to come. There are guests in the mansion. They are the general's third uncle and cousin. The cousin is called Tadpole. The county lord said that the third uncle of the Xu family missed his sister, so please come over."
Hearing Nanny Lian's words, Mother Qin's face sank immediately. Her daughter-in-law's words were polite. Whether the third brother missed her sister, only she knew. She didn't expect that her third brother's wife was still unwilling to give up, and even tempted the third brother to bring Tadpole here. When she thought of this, Mother Qin felt as disgusted as if she had eaten rat shit.
It was impossible for Si Ya to marry Tadpole. Mother Qin grew up in the countryside and had seen shameless practices in the countryside, such as locking boys and girls together. Even if they had done nothing wrong, it would still ruin the girl's innocence. When she thought that the third sister-in-law might have ulterior motives, she was worried about Si Ya. She immediately said, "Let's go. I'll go back with you." She rushed into the house, told the maid some things, and followed Nanny Lian.
On the way, Mother Qin also asked Nanny Lian about the situation. When she learned that Tadpole had fainted at the gate of the general's mansion, she became even more disgusted with the behavior of Aunt Qin San. Was she really sending her nephew to die? The third brother and nephew have never traveled far, so you dare to let them go on the road to come here? Being able to beg here is already an eye-opener for God.
When Qin's mother arrived at the general's mansion, Tadpole also woke up. Uncle Qin and Tadpole had already taken a bath, changed into clean clothes and were eating. Uncle Qin's clothes are guard uniforms, and Tadpole's clothes belong to Qin Shoucheng. It's not that Yang Haiyan refused to give Third Uncle Qin good clothes, the guard uniforms were also brand new. Although they were made of ordinary materials, they were much better than those worn by farmers working in the fields. Mainly because there happened to be clothes suitable for Uncle Qin's height in the guard uniforms, so they were given to him first.
Uncle Qin didn't have any idea about this. It was good that he had clothes to wear, not to mention they were new, so he was quite happy.
In this brief contact, Yang Haiyan already knew the character of Uncle Qin San, a simple-minded man. She also knew why they came here, because it was Aunt Qin San who tricked them to come here, so that Uncle Qin San would follow Qin Fang to develop.
Speaking of which, Yang Haiyan had a lot to say. Uncle Qin San was a simple-minded man, like a spoiled giant baby, but he had one advantage over ordinary giant babies, that is, he was not very scheming.
Tadpole said as he drank rice porridge: "Cousin, I haven't eaten for several days. My father begs for food every day, but what he gets is not enough for me." When Uncle
Qin San heard his son say this, he wanted to hide his head under the table. He blushed and explained: "This... the money brought by this family has been spent." The main reason is that they didn't know that Yunxiang County was so far away, and the money they prepared was not enough. If he had known it was so far, he would never come.
"Bah, you are really promising. You brought your son to beg for food. Why don't you take your head to the shop to exchange for money?" Mother Qin came in and cursed loudly.
Uncle Qin San knew that his eldest sister came without seeing anyone. He shrank his neck subconsciously. Who is Uncle Qin San afraid of the most? It is undoubtedly his eldest sister. Because he and his elder sister were both loved by their parents, so when his elder sister scolded him, his parents would not tie him up, so Uncle Qin was most afraid of his elder sister.
Uncle Qin did not even drink the porridge, and looked at Mother Qin timidly: "Sister... Sister, you are here?"
Tadpole was also afraid of this aunt. Every time the aunt went to their house, she would inevitably scold him, so every time the aunt came, he would run away to play. This time he came to his cousin's house, mainly because his mother said that he could eat meat every day at his cousin's house, and that if he married his cousin Si Ya, he would not have to do any work in the future, and he could lie at home and eat meat every day, and someone would serve him. He did not care whether he was served or not, and he did not have to work at home. What he wanted was to eat meat every day, so he followed his father.
However, imagination is beautiful, and reality is terrible. The most terrifying thing is to face his aunt. "Aunt...Aunt..." Tadpole and his father had the same expression, looking at Qin's mother fearfully.
Qin's mother looked at her brother and nephew, furious. Although they had changed into new clothes, Qin's mother still disliked them. She sat down at the dining table: "Third brother, why are you here?" Uncle
Qin swallowed his saliva: "This...this child's mother said that our grandfather and I have no future in the countryside, so she asked us to go out and have fun, so...we came to Afang's place. Thinking...thinking that with Afang here, at least there will be someone to take care of us." Uncle Qin was so scared that he directly gave away Aunt Qin's mother. He couldn't remember anything he had thought of before coming here.
But Qin's mother didn't believe it: "What else did your wife tell you? Is she planning to take advantage of Si Ya?"
Uncle Qin didn't say anything, even though his wife said so.
But if Uncle Qin didn't say anything, Tadpole would dare to say: "Aunt, my mother said that Si Ya should be my wife."
Qin's mother said: "She is dreaming." But in front of her nephew, she didn't say too much about her sister-in-law, after all, she is her nephew's biological mother, "Let me ask you, do you know what it means to be a daughter-in-law?"
Tadpole immediately said, "I know. You have to give birth to my children and earn money to support me."
"Bah..." Mother Qin was about to burst into curse, "In our family, it doesn't make sense for girls to earn money for boys. In our family, your aunt I was raised by your uncle, and your cousin's wife was raised by your cousin. If you want Si Ya to be your wife, you have to earn money to support your wife."
Tadpole thought this matter was too complicated: "But I can't make money, and my mother didn't tell me that."
Uncle Qin listened quietly. As long as his eldest sister didn't target him, he didn't care how she taught his son.
Mother Qin said, "Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, come back with me and I will tell you how to make money."
Yang Haiyan was a little surprised. She looked at Mother Qin.
Mother Qin smiled at her and said, "Yan Yan, let's go to another place. I have something to tell you."
Yang Haiyan stood up and said, "Okay."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked out of the hall and went to a quiet place. Mother Qin did not keep them in suspense and said directly, "Yan Yan, your third uncle A Fang is a brainless man, and Tadpole is also a lazy glutton. I don't want to embarrass my mother's family. If this is someone else's family, I would not even look at them. But this is my mother's family, and I have to say it even if I don't want to.
You probably don't know that after the news of A Fang's incident spread back to my hometown, we held a buffet when we came here. I told you about this, but you still... There is nothing behind that. At that time, Tadpole's mother came to me and wanted Si Ya to marry Tadpole. So whether I am selfish or powerful, given the current situation of our family, I really don't like Tadpole. Even if I want to help my parents' family, I can give Grandpa A Fang some money every year, but it is impossible for me to marry my daughter.
I originally thought that if I refused this matter, it would be fine, but I didn't know that Tadpole'er's mother was such a careless person that she actually asked Ah Fang, his third uncle, and Tadpole'er to come over. Hey..." At this point, Qin's mother sighed. Her cruel third brother and sister didn't even think about whether they could reach Yunxiang County safely with the third brother's ability?
Fortunately, they arrived safely, even though they came all the way to beg for food. Thinking of this, Qin's mother was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Yang Haiyan said, "Don't worry, mother. Even if Third Uncle is unreliable, they are safe for Tadpole."
Qin's mother shook her head and said, "I'm not worried about them. I'm worried about Afang's grandparents. But I'm going to take them to the military camp."
