Marrying into a poor family

Qin Xiang did not see Su Shi come back that night. When she was anxious, she saw Zhang Lao Er came back to report that Mrs. Su was seriously ill and insisted on keeping Su Shi to talk. So Su Shi decided to stay for two days and sent him back to report that she was safe.

Qin Xiang didn't trust the Su family in her heart, but since the Su family brought many people, she was not afraid of the Su family's mischief. She also gave Zhang Lao Er a few words and asked him to go to the Su family early the next morning to keep an eye on them.

The next day, Xiao Chenyu took a break. When he returned home, he found a tall young man standing in the yard. The man in a brocade robe had his hands behind his back, and he was holding a fan with a rosewood frame. In today's weather, holding a folding fan is purely for fun. To show off.

When people in the courtyard saw Xiao Chenyu, they all called him "Master". The young master also turned to look at Xiao Chenyu, raising his eyebrows slightly and looking up and down at Xiao Chenyu. Seeing that he was dressed simply, they couldn't help but feel a little scornful.

Xiao Chenyu asked doubtfully: "Who is this?"

Qin Xiang happened to come from the yard on the right. When she saw Xiao Chenyu coming back, her face softened and she shouted: "You're back, why don't you come in?"

Then, he handed the wooden box in his hand to Xiaozhu and asked her to give it to Master Lu Jiu. He stood next to Xiao Chenyu and introduced the two of them. Then he explained to Xiao Chenyu: "The several incense sticks I made before are ready. I will take them." Come and let Xiao Dongjia show it to the guests, and we can better produce it by deciding on the quantity of goods."

Xiao Chenyu nodded to express his understanding, and invited Lu Jiuye to come in and sit down to drink tea. However, Lu Jiuye politely refused while holding the wooden box.

"I have been in Qijiang County for a long time. Now that I have taken these treasures, I will return to the capital immediately. However, I should be back soon, and it will not be too late to have a drink with Brother Xiao by then."

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Lu Jiuye said goodbye and led the people straight to the dock.

Xiao Chenyu went back to the house and changed into comfortable clothes.Qin Xiang put aside the matter of the fragrance house and followed him back. As long as Xiao Chenyu came home, Qin Xiang would try his best to accompany him.

Qin Xiang helped Xiao Chenyu tie her belt, but Xiao Chenyu couldn't help but touch her face. After being slapped away by Qin Xiang, he said, "When you go to the county school tomorrow, take Xiao Qi to take care of you."

"Why do I need any servants to follow me? Is there anything I can't do by myself?" Xiao Chenyu's thoughts are still on his wife. After all, he is a young man and has just started eating meat. Now he cannot see her every day. Now that he has met her, The wife wished she could transform into a wolf immediately.

Although he didn't go to bed immediately to relieve the anger in his heart, he couldn't calm down anyway.

"Listen to me, bringing someone with you is not only to take care of your daily life, but also to help you run errands and deliver news to your family." Qin Xi held Xiao Chenyu's hand, not allowing it to move, and said, "I I always feel unsure, so just let Xiao Qi follow you, it will reassure me."

It was rare for Qin Xiang to express her concern for him in this way. Xiao Chenyu felt very comfortable. When he was excited, he hugged his wife and fell on the wooden couch to kiss her carefully.

After the kiss ended, Xiao Chenyu leaned over and looked into his wife's eyes, smiling: "I'm going to meet my mother-in-law. Are you going to the incense room or accompanying me?"

"My mother has gone to the Su family. You can't show filial piety in front of your mother-in-law today." Qin Xiang is not a hypocritical person, and she is happy to enjoy Xiao Chenyu's obsession and tenderness. At this time, she is lying lazily and reaches out to poke Xiao Chenyu. Cheeks smiled.

Xiao Chenyu grabbed her finger, put it on his teeth, took a bite, and asked, "Why are you going back to Su's house?"

Qin Xi pushed Xiao Chenyu away and sat up, and explained the reason for Su's return. Su's biological mother was also involved here. Qin Xi simply told her as well. Now that she and Xiao Chenyu had a bigger secret, she became more candid. .

After Xiao Chenyu was pushed away by Qin Xiang, he lay down and looked at Qin Xiang who was sitting up quietly. After she finished speaking, he frowned and sat up and said: "The Su family took out my grandmother's relics for no reason. What do you think? It also feels like there’s some conspiracy, so I’m sure it’s not a new trick?”

Qin Xiang was very busy during this period, and the Su family was not on Qin Xiang's list of precautions, so she just thought that it would be appropriate if she arranged someone.Now when Xiao Chenyu said it, he was shocked in his heart, and then hesitantly said: "What can the Su family do to my mother? The most important thing is to get some benefits and make some money?"

Xiao Chenyu could see Qin Xiang's thoughts and said: "The weather is nice today, why don't we go to Su's house to bring my mother back now. Let's also take a break. We don't have time to spare on weekdays, so we also take this opportunity to imitate others' steps." Spring outing."

Qin Xiang had never done such a thing as a spring outing, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

So the couple did what they said and immediately asked Li Siniang to arrange a carriage and horse trip.

Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu did not bring anyone with them. Xiao Chenyu was still driving the carriage. Qin Xiang was sitting in the carriage, holding back the curtain and talking to Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu talked about what happened in the school, and said that several gentlemen asked him where he bought the incense in the sachet he wore.

"The sachets I made for you can repel mosquitoes and wake you up. They are not expensive. If necessary, I will ask Li Siniang to arrange for someone to sew a few more sachets to give away. These are not worth anything. It’s nice to be able to do a favor.”

Xiao Chenyu nodded in agreement and said casually: "If it's not troublesome, just ask someone to do a few. If it's troublesome, forget it."

Well, the couple looked at the greenery along the way, and some early spring flowers were also blooming. They also thought of the peach blossoms in the yard. But Master Lu Jiu often drank and entertained friends in the peach garden, so Qin Xiang never went to see them. Pass.

"Now we have money in our hands, but we don't dare to use it arbitrarily. Otherwise, I really want to buy a yard and move out immediately." Qin Xiang always felt that there was a hook in Lu Jiu's eyes, and she always wanted to take away some of it from Qin Xiang. Something like that made Qin Xiang a little bored.

However, she would never reveal any of these things to Xiao Chenyu to avoid causing trouble.

The couple had never been to Su's house, but they found it by asking random people.

Qin Xiang looked at the Su family's house from a distance and sneered repeatedly: "The Su family is like a small landowner. I originally thought of the kindness of raising my mother, so I didn't care so much. It was just a small punishment or a big warning. I just feel relieved, if the Su family has evil thoughts again, I will definitely spare them."

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they stopped the carriage. Xiao Chenyu took Qin Xiang's hand and asked her to get out of the carriage, and then went up to knock on the door.

While waiting for someone to open the door, Xiao Chenyu looked around and said, "There are a lot of fertile fields here, and they are almost as big as Xiaojiacun."

It was Su Xiaomiao who opened the door. She glanced at Xiao Chenyu and Qin Xiang's faces several times before closing her open lips: "Why are you here?"

Qin Xi smiled meaningfully: "Why can't we come? Or is it that only my mother is allowed to come here?"

Su Xiaomiao raised her eyebrows and said rather unhappily: "Your mother was called here by my grandma, and you didn't have anyone to call you, so why don't you be shameless when you come all by yourself?"

"Stop talking nonsense, where is my mother?" Qin Xiang was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, stretched out her hand to push the person aside, and walked into the Su family's yard.

In the yard, Ms. Su and another woman were sitting next to each other. She must be about the same age as Ms. Su. She was wearing a pair of coarse cloth clothes and a pair of old cloth shoes.He and Mrs. Su were wiping tears while talking, and they seemed to be old acquaintances.
