After rebirth, dribbling and leaving

Chapter 147: Zhongyuan Chapter

Liu Diejing gave her son 20,000 taels of silver notes after giving him numerous instructions, and waited anxiously for this big deal to be done!

And Su Qingling finally waited for the good news that Ye Jian collected from outside!

"Miss, Aunt Ke was the granddaughter of Madam Hou's aunt. Her family fell into poverty early in her life. She had been living with the Liu family since she was six years old. She suddenly left the Liu family more than four years ago..."

Ye Jian didn't know how to continue. Su Qingling looked at him, still considering, and gestured indifferently to continue!

"When the master left for his post, Aunt Ke accompanied him all the time and treated him as his wife. She was about to give birth. It is said that Aunt Ke went there first and rented a house. She lived there with her maid for several months. Later, when the master arrived, he directly brought her to the county government compound..."

Although Su Qingling had guessed it almost right, he still felt cold all over. So that's how it was. He didn't expect that Aunt Ke was the one who hid the most!

Haha, it seems that this game is becoming more and more interesting!

While she was deep in thought, she accidentally glanced at Ye Jian and discovered a clue!

"Ye Jian, do you have anything else to say?"

Ye Jian opened his mouth slightly before saying:

"To answer Miss, it was the young master's people who found out... Hehe... Zheng San said that if you don't ask, then there's no need to mention it. If you do ask, then there's no need to hide it from you! But I'm your servant, I can't hide anything from you!"

Su Qingling couldn't help but roll his eyes, but then he became a little smarter: "It seems that my Chunlan has good taste!"

Chunlan was suddenly teased, her face suddenly flushed, and she said angrily:

"Young lady has become a bad person now, and she teases us servants all the time!"

Ye Jian's ears did not turn red, he just smiled foolishly, bowed, and left after completing his mission!

Dongmei's eyes widened, full of gossip:

"Hey, when did Sister Chunlan have an explanation with Brother Ye?"

Xia He smiled foolishly: "You little fool, you are just a kid, why are you worrying about these things? But Sister Chunlan kept it a secret. If the young lady hadn't said anything, I'm afraid we would all be in the dark!"

Unexpectedly, before she finished her words, Dongmei took over:

"Humph. Sister Xia He said I was a little fool, but I know that Brother Qin secretly bought you a gilded plum blossom hairpin. It's so beautiful!"

When Xia He heard this, she was like a cat with its fur standing on end, and she chased after Dong Mei to hit her:

"You little bitch, let me tell you something. It's his business if he buys it. Do I want it just because he buys it? Humph, I'm not someone who is short-sighted!"

Qiuxiang saw the two people fighting and was afraid that they would bump into the young lady, so she hurriedly spoke out to stop them:

"Oh my, sisters, please be careful. If you touch the young lady, you may be skinned alive by the nanny..."

The anger immediately spread to Madam Zhou, who was making small clothes, and raised her head, laughing and scolding:

"You guys can make as much noise as you want, but be careful that the walls have ears, and if someone hears it outside the gate, they will say something bad about your young lady again!"

The two looked at each other, stuck out their tongues, and then they calmed down!

However, Su Qingling was looking at Chunlan and Xia He. Generally, girls in Dali Country could get engaged before they reached the age of 15, and could arrange for marriage after they reached the age of 15!

And these two girls, one is eighteen and the other seventeen, which means they are not young anymore. After things here are settled, we have to settle their marriage first!

Today is the Zhongyuan Festival, the day when the underworld opens its doors. Our ancestors said that all ghosts can come out and wander around, so people will prepare rich offerings for their ancestors and the dead on this day for them to enjoy and use. In addition, Taoist priests or monks will be invited to perform rituals, chant sutras and worship Buddha, to help the dead transcend and help them reincarnate as soon as possible!

In her previous life, Su Qingling did not believe these things. Now, since she can be reborn, what else is there not to believe?

I was carried back to the yard yesterday, so if I go there again today, I will certainly not be treated well!

The weather was gloomy with occasional drizzle, and the yard felt a little chilly!

Xia He helped her to tie a simple bun, and fastened it with two plum blossom-shaped gold hairpins with kingfisher feathers, and simply embellished it with a few single-pearl flowers!

She specially used dark powder on her face to make her look much more haggard, and also applied powder on her lips to cover up the good color, and then used colorless lip balm!

She found a plain light green skirt and put it on. People were afraid that the master would fall down at the next moment!

When they arrived at the main courtyard, people from the second and third rooms also came. The aunt could not be present for such a big event, so Marquis Xie and his two brothers walked in the front ancestral hall, followed by the male members of the Xie family, and finally Liu Diejing and her female relatives!

Shao was only half a step behind her sister-in-law. Seeing that Su Qingling looked really bad, and thinking of the rumors, she felt even more distressed for her niece-in-law!

Without making a sound, he slowed down a half step and synchronized with Su Qingling, and said softly:

"My niece-in-law looks very unwell. She should take care of herself and avoid the foods that are normally taken. For the sake of the baby in her belly, it's better to be safe than sorry!"

Su Qingling looked at Second Aunt in surprise. There was deep concern in her eyes, which was not much different from the coldness and warmth when they first met. No matter what, Su Qingling would not refuse the kindness!

"Thank you for your concern, Second Aunt. I'll ask the maids to be more alert when I get back, so they don't eat the wrong things..."

This is quite interesting. Second Aunt can understand the meaning behind it. I have understood your hint!

Shao didn't expect that his niece-in-law was so smart and could understand the meaning of an ordinary sentence. He even had a better impression of her!

Her daughter Xie Fangxuan was not much different from Su Qingling. Seeing her mother taking the initiative to approach her, she naturally moved closer as well!

Wei from the third room was very insightful. She knew that her second sister-in-law was trying to make peace with Su, so she naturally followed on one side, and her two daughters surrounded her on the other side!

However, in this way, Liu Diejing was only followed by two concubines and a few servants, which made her look much more alone!

The daughter-in-law, who should have been isolated, was surrounded by people from the second and third rooms. She was even more unhappy when she thought about being refused the key and could not help but snorted coldly!

When they arrived outside the ancestral hall, the servants had already laid out all the tribute fruits. Women were not allowed to enter and could only wait outside!

The yard is surrounded by banyan trees. The branches of the banyan trees stretch into the sky like an old dragon spreading its wings, interweaving with the green leaves swaying in the wind to form a beautiful picture.

There was an old locust tree on one side of the ancestral hall. The lush branches and leaves of the locust tree were like a huge green umbrella, providing shade and shielding the people below from the rain!

In the ancestral hall, Xie Chen lit incense for the ancestors, said some words asking for the ancestors' blessings, and led everyone in kowtow.

After the sacrifice was over, he left the ancestral hall, took the incense handed over by the servant, and walked to the other end, where Xie Xuanping picked up a bamboo pole with a long firecracker hung on it. The incense head touched the string, and sparks hissed out!

Xie Hou dodged backwards in a hurry, and the firecrackers made a crackling sound. When the sound of the firecrackers died down, a cloud of smoke filled the air. That was when the matter was settled!
