Chapter 382

During her long talk, Old Madam Qin seemed to have aged a lot. She then finally said, “I know your second uncle, he may say that someone is at fault but he must have also accounted for at least half of this fault.” Otherwise, why would he be so guilty and anxious!

Qin Jiu and Qin Zening still weren’t able to grasp what was really happening. Apart from obediently listening to Old Madam Qin, they also don’t know what to say and could only occasionally look at each other’s faces.

The siblings’ somewhat confused look made Old Madam Qin at a loss.

Old Madam Qin felt pity and somewhat sad, she couldn’t help but remember that when her eldest son and daughter-in-law passed away, Ning’er was only a small child who was forced to grow up and shoulder the responsibility of taking care of his younger siblings.

Long before, this child who was fatherless and motherless at such young age has become someone who was in charge of his family. These siblings were pitiful enough, and yet, they were still soft-hearted, especially Ning’er, he did not inherit the title nor did he got married, and now he was kicked out by his second uncle to set up his own family.

Among other things, Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu would also suffer some disadvantages when it comes to discussing marriage in the future.

The more Old Madam Qin thought about it, the more she felt that it was not easy for his eldest grandson, “Ning’er, your life was exchange for this merit, and since you no longer have a title, you have to earn your own in the future, also, as the eldest brother you need to support your younger sister and brother.”

“If you don’t think about yourself, think about your younger siblings a little more.”

Once again, Old Madam Qin was immersed in her own thoughts and kept talking to herself.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

Qin Jiu looked at the gray-haired woman in front of her and pursed her lips into a smile as her eyes brightened even more.

Although Old Madam Qin was partial toward Qin Xin, she was also partial to her people. Her partiality to Qin Xin was understandable since she raised Qin Xin like her own child. One would have feelings after raising a puppy or a kitten let alone a person, not to mention, Qin Xin had been under her for more than ten years, so obviously she loves Qin Xin as a real granddaughter.

“Grandmother, I’ll see you off.” Qin Jiu also stood up.

Qin Zening originally wanted to send Old Madam Qin off too but was dismissed by the latter. “Ning’er don’t need to send me off, I happen to have a few personal words to say to your sister.”

Thus, Qin Zening was left alone in the main hall as he helplessly watched the old and young walk away.

Old Madam Qin took Qin Jiu’s hand as they walked and said, “Jiu’er, there are some things that your mother should have told you but she left early, while your brother is thoughtless, and your aunt is proud and arrogant...ai.”

“County King thinks highly of you which is a good thing but good things do not last long...don’t be self-willed in what you will do in the future, a girl should be obedient and gentle. Once you marry your husband, obey him, just like your second sister, although she and the second prince previously had some problems but they were still able to solve the differences, and if she gives birth to a royal son, at least her position as side concubine could be sealed...”

Qin Jiu: “...”

She almost chuckled but restrained herself. She already knew the old madam’s temper, and upon hearing the following words, it went straight in one ear and out the other. Anyway, all she needs to do was smile.

Old Madam Qin looked at Qin Jiu’s well-behaved appearance after she gave her advice and was relieved: Jiu’er would soon become a county princess, meanwhile, Ning’er has a good job, she could now tell Ning’er about marriage so that he could establish the eldest house. She needs to pay attention to Ning’er.

This was what running through Old Madam Qin’s mind from when comes out of Hulu Lane until she returned back to the Marquis mansion, but she couldn’t think of a suitable candidate to be her granddaughter-in-law. She wonders if she needed to go into the palace and talk to Empress Wei, but she was afraid that Empress Wei would choose a proud one for Qin Zening.

Amidst her dilemma, Old Madam Qin returned to Ronghe Hall. Qin Zhun immediately received the news that his mother was back.

He had already waited impatiently after knowing that Old Madam Qin had gone to Hulu Lane, thinking that he was able to move his mother, he went to Ronghe Hall again.
