Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 372

The next day, as the morning light dimmed, Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu woke up one after another.

However, Qin Xiang did not get up in a hurry, but discussed the young prince's proposal with Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu meant not to go. If he couldn't even get the people and things in order at the Hanlin Academy, then he still wouldn't be able to make a difference if he went elsewhere.

Xiao Chenyu also agreed with Qin Xiang's recommendation of Qin Yaozu. He said that Qin Yaozu's experience and ability were better than his own today.

Qin Xiang looked at Xiao Chenyu's eyes carefully and felt relieved when she saw that he didn't mean what he said.

Qin Xiang said: "I plan to solve Ma Hui's matter first, and I can't delay it forever. Because I have to go all out to take over the young prince's fragrant banquet."

In addition, time is tight, so Qin Xiang cannot be distracted.

Xiao Chenyu suddenly said: "Tell me, if this fragrant banquet finally falls into your hands to organize, will anyone cause trouble?"

"In the face of huge interests, some people are naturally jealous, but I am not afraid. I will drag the young prince and Princess Yaoxiang to stand in front of him. He is a giant Buddha, and I am not willing to steal the limelight."

Xiao Chenyu pinched her cheek and asked with a smile: "How do Xiangyan and Princess Yaoxiang get involved?"

Qin Xiang slapped Xiao Chenyu's rebellious hand away and said confidently: "Today, when the young prince talked about receiving the delegation, I saw the look on Princess Yaoxiang's face, and I was afraid that she wanted to interfere."

"It seems that these 'gods' are going to fight!" Xiao Chenyu said with emotion.

Qin Xiang said with some doubts: "I just don't understand, what are the Queen Mother and the Emperor's plans for the young prince? Is it simply to train him, or is it for other reasons?"

Xiao Chenyu said: "Why do you think so much? Just organize the fragrant banquet."

After Qin Xiang packed up, she went to the Su family's house to say hello, and then looked at her son and little sister, and then went to the outer courtyard to find Uncle Qi.

Uncle Qi took her to a separate courtyard where there were twenty silent people.

Qin Xi knew that this was the person for her.

Qin Xiang couldn't judge whether a person was good or not. She only tested whether everyone obeyed her orders, and the result was naturally satisfactory.

Uncle Qi handed the people over to her, saying that this courtyard was specially allocated for them to live in. They had a separate door to enter and exit, and they did not need to go in and out through the main entrance.

Qin Xi thought for a while and said: "Don't be so special. Just join the guards and have the same food and clothing expenses as everyone else. Of course, only Xiao Chenyu and I can arrange for them to go out to do things."

Uncle Qi also nodded. The more special it was, the more attention and doubts it aroused from others.

However, these people still live in this courtyard. After all, other places are also full of people. They just say to the outside world that they are a newly hired group of nursing homes.

Qin Xiang immediately called for Sun Jifei and handed all the people over to Sun Jifei for arrangements.

Qin Xian asked Sun Jifei to withdraw the people who were staring at Ma Hui before, and let these new people keep an eye on him at night.

After making arrangements, Qin Xiang went to the incense shop, while Sun Jifei stayed to communicate with these people and talk about the new master's rules.

In the incense shop, Ma Hui was still doing her business as before. If it hadn't been discovered that she had gone out to have a tryst with Du Ziren, I'm afraid there would be nothing wrong with her current face.

Moreover, Qin Xi discovered that Ma Hui had even put her original clothes back on.

Qin Xiang asked the shopkeeper about the account and the situation in Ma Hui's store as usual. Then he praised him a few times as usual and gave him some benefits before letting him go out first.

Qing Gu brought Qing Qian in. Qing Qian smiled with crooked eyebrows, wished Qin Xiang blessings, and recounted what happened during this period. Qin Xi didn't feel anything strange after hearing this, so she asked Qing Qian to go back to her house first.

When Qing Qian heard this, she looked a little reluctant, but she recovered in an instant and bowed in response.

Qin Xiang saw her mood change and asked with a smile: "But are you happier here? Are you so happy that you don't want to go back to serve me?"

Qingqian's cheeks were slightly red and she waved her hands to express her loyalty.

Qin Xiang didn't feel angry after hearing her sophistry.

The young apprentice Qin Yafeng heard that the master was coming and came to see him. As soon as he came in, he heard Qing Qian's words and stood aside hurriedly without daring to speak.

Qin Xiang looked at Qin Yafeng and asked, "Are you unwilling to go back?"

Qin Yafeng quickly glanced at Qingqian, then immediately looked at Qin Xiang, pursed her lips, and then said: "Disciple thinks that I can learn a lot here, and I also follow him at the incense shop. The masters were making incense, but the disciples were not lazy.”

Qin Xiang nodded: "I will be busy for a while, and I probably won't be able to take care of your studies. You might as well stay here."

Qin Yafeng smiled immediately.

Qin Xian added: "Then I will take Qingqian back and send a servant over to take care of your daily life!"

Qin Yafeng's smile faded a little. He glanced at Qingxi again, who had her head lowered. She seemed to be struggling, and then asked Qin Xiang: "Sister Qingqian said that she also likes people like sister Ma Hui." That’s how things work here.”

Qing Qian suddenly raised her head, shook her head at Qin Yafeng, then glared at him, then looked at Qin Xiang, knelt down and said: "Madam, I have absolutely no intention of going back to serve my wife."

Qin Xiang looked at Qingqian carefully and saw panic in her eyes.

"Qing Qian, do you know that when Ma Hui knelt in front of me and wanted to be an apprentice in the incense shop, her eyes were very firm. She chose this path with all her might. You think you have made a decision now? Or, do you dare to do this even if you offend me? "

Qingxi did not expect that Qin Xiang did not scold her, but said that her heart was not firm.

Qinggu takes charge of Qingxi, which is equivalent to being her master. Therefore, Qinggu cannot see Qingxi acting so stupid. Besides, she is the person who knows Ma Hui best and knows that Qingxi is very different.

She walked to Qingqian, pulled her up, and said: "At first, Ma Hui had the opportunity to marry our second master's brother, but Ma Hui refused. She chose to work in the incense shop in order to make money for herself. Earn a way out.”

Qingqian looked at Qinggu in confusion, but she knew that Qinggu was teaching her, so she listened very carefully.

Qinggu added: "Ma Hui believed in her choice and was willing to work hard for it. At that time, Ma Hui didn't understand anything, couldn't read, couldn't calculate accounts, couldn't recognize spices, and couldn't communicate with guests. communicate."

"She is now able to handle everything and talk and laugh happily with the guests. In addition to her talent, a large part of the reason is that my wife gave her the opportunity to learn."

Qinggu said this with a cold look in his eyes: "Maybe she has forgotten that what she is today is all given by the second master and his wife. Without the second master to save her, she would have been sold to someone who knows where she was. Without the wife With her vigorous cultivation, can she be as successful as she is now?”

Having said this, Qing Gu rolled his eyes and looked at the door, his eyes even colder.

Qin Xiang also put down the tea cup and looked at the door with a slight twinkle in her eyes.

The door was slightly ajar. Ma Hui was standing outside, holding a scent box in her hand, but she couldn't push the door open.

I heard Qin Xi say: "Qing Qian, you'd better go back with me. Ma Hui is enough here."

Although there was some reluctance in her eyes, Qingqian still nodded vigorously. It would be good to stay or go back. Qingqian really thought so in her heart.
