Chapter 883 Having a Lover
? Qin Yining nodded with tears, suppressing his sadness.
She returned to the Qin family for five years and experienced many ups and downs. Although she had been separated from her parents for a long time, she still had hope for the future and knew that no matter how much hardship she experienced, she would eventually have a chance to return home.
This time, the future is bleak.
Such a separation between life and death is really heartbreaking pain. Her parents, relatives, and her child who is less than two years old... these are the most important people to her, but she may withdraw from their lives from now on.
It was rare that Qin Yining was so vulnerable. The way she restrained her tears was even more distressing than crying in Pang Xiao's eyes. He really hoped that Qin Yining was an arrogant and domineering person. If he could not be so sensible, why would he suffer so much?
"Father-in-law, this is all my son-in-law's fault." Pang Xiao kowtowed three times, "Father-in-law, don't worry, this trip is not to die, but to keep important people alive. I will not risk everything and die." Even if there is a danger one day, as long as I am around, no one will hurt Sister Yi. Even if it is a matter of life and death, I will protect her with my life and will never walk behind her. Father-in-law, please rest assured. !”
Qin Huaiyuan nodded, holding back tears, and helped the two of them up.
"Okay. Okay, my father understands what you mean. We are not separated by life and death. Although it is difficult now, things are not that bad. After this separation, we will see each other again in the future. You and I don't have to be so pessimistic. "
"Yes." Qin Yining and Pang Xiao said in unison.
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi watched with sympathy, and promised Qin Huaiyuan: "Don't worry, Mr. Qin, we will do our best to assist the prince, and we will never slack off!"
"I trust you two gentlemen, and I will do more work for you from now on."
"I can't take it seriously. This is what the two of us should do..."
After the family decided on a strategy, Pang Xiao arranged for someone to send Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi back.
Qin Yining followed Qin Huaiyuan back to the inner house.
There was no one else on the road, so Qin Yining took the opportunity to ask: "Father, will Aunt Cao still go with you this time?"
Qin Yining wanted to care about his father, but because she was a married woman, she couldn't directly ask her father about his concubine, so he could only ask tactfully.
Qin Huaiyuan naturally understood what Qin Yining meant.
He said bitterly: "I wanted to ask her what she meant, but she avoided me. She has been living in the guest house and refused to come around the house. I can't bother her anymore."
When Qin Yining heard Qin Huaiyuan take the initiative to talk about the details, he knew that he was really confused.
Even if Qin Huaiyuan had any difficulties with this matter, he wouldn't discuss it with Sun, right? It's okay for brothers to say this to each other, but with Qin Huaiyuan's character, he will never lose his dignity as an elder brother in front of his second uncle and third uncle. Otherwise, how can the family convince everyone in the future?
So when my father encountered such troubles, he didn't even have a place to talk.
"There is no doubt about Aunt Cao's sincerity towards you. This can be known from her following her over the years. Back in Dayan's capital, when Zhixi troops came to the city and the capital suffered from drought and water and food shortages, with Aunt Cao's skills, In fact, you can leave us alone and walk away. But she is willing to follow you and lead the way for you.
"Although my mother and I are both serious wives, and we don't want our husbands to take concubines, we are moved by Aunt Cao's sincerity and dedication. My mother told me that looking at her Because she loves you, she is willing to risk her life to protect the important people around you. She has saved the lives of our family members several times, and even her heart was moved.
"Father, for such a woman who is willing to devote herself wholeheartedly to you, I feel that accepting her is not an insult to you. If you cannot take the initiative, you will feel sorry for her deep affection."
Qin Huaiyuan blushed and lowered his eyes. Logically speaking, these things should not be said to his daughter.
But he was really confused.
"I know what you said in my heart. I am not hard-hearted and can be moved. I also admire her. But now that I mentioned the matter to her, she refused. Earlier I accepted her for the sake of my heirs. Concubine, I have broken your mother's heart. Your mother was born in a famous family and has suffered a lot with me in her life. Now that I have an outstanding daughter like you, I am no longer obsessed with having a son, so naturally I refuse to do so. It makes your mother sad to take a concubine for the sake of the heirs, but I am not treating the Cao family for the sake of the heirs..."
Qin Yijing listened to Qin Huaiyuan's words quietly. She knew that her father usually spoke clearly and coherently, but this time he was a little confused.
This is enough to prove that Cao Yuqing's incident has disturbed her thoughtful father.
Since her father was willing to discuss his concerns with her, she stopped being rigid and asked, "Daughter, I understand. You really appreciate Aunt Cao and are pleased with her, so you want to hire her as your concubine?"
Qin Huaiyuan nodded, looking a little uncomfortable.
Qin Yining asked the question hidden in her heart: "But father, Aunt Cao has expressed her feelings for you in front of you before. She is a straightforward person and has never hidden it. She was so proactive back then." , why don't you accept her?
"She came to the mansion as a concubine given by the Holy God, but you would rather accept the other four concubines than get close to her, and just put her in a high cabinet... If I were Aunt Cao, I will also have resentment in my heart. I won’t nod as soon as you open your mouth. Wouldn’t that mean that if you call it, it will come and if you wave it, it will go?”
Qin Huaiyuan gradually stopped as he listened to Qin Yining's analysis.
The father and daughter were walking to the small lake in the back garden. To the right was Shuoren Zhai, where Qin Yining lived, to the left was the old lady's Cixiao Garden, and to the left was Xingning Garden.
The winter night was dark and windy, with no stars or moon. Only the lights of Shuorenzhai illuminated the road in front of me. The lake was pitch black, as if a lake of pitch-black ink had gathered.
Qin Huaiyuan stood there with his lips pursed, looking at the dark lake, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After a while, he said hoarsely: "I see. That's what she thought. However, I didn't mean to look down on her."
Qin Yining nodded and sighed: "If father has any ideas, he can tell Aunt Cao directly. Aunt Cao is not an unreasonable person."
"I know. When she came here with the order, we were colleagues, so naturally we could only keep her distance. Later, I didn't want to delay her. She wanted to be my bodyguard and no longer my concubine. Of course I agreed. There's no reason why she shouldn't. If I am willing, I will force someone to stay by my side.
"Even later, when Dayan was destroyed, our family went through many disasters before reaching Dazhou with great difficulty. I knew that the future was bleak, and it was very likely that she would become a victim of the struggle between the three factions at any time. How could I drag her into the quagmire? She wouldn't Be my concubine, just a bodyguard, and you can leave at any time.
"She could have been free, but why should she be buried with her because of my own selfishness? It is only now that I am about to live in seclusion in Xiyue, no longer want to get involved in the world, and my life has become more stable, so I think of mentioning this matter to her. But she didn't want to.
"That's all, that's all. You can't force this kind of thing, and there's no reason for me to force someone to be my concubine. Besides, your mother has been with me all her life, and I really can't forgive her a lot."
Qin Huaiyuan seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to be a catharsis of emotional confusion. He couldn't find anyone to tell these personal words, so he could only say them in front of his daughter, who was like a confidant.
Qin Huaiyuan turned around in embarrassment, "Sister Yi, you..."
But before he finished speaking, he saw the unexpected person behind Qin Yining.
Seeing that her father's eyes were wrong, Qin Yining hurriedly turned around and saw Cao Yuqing wearing a royal blue cloak with a chinchilla fur collar, standing two feet behind her, her fair skin looking fine in the night. Porcelain, but her expressions were not clear, and I don’t know how long she had been following them and how much of their conversation she had listened to.
Cao Yuqing looked at Qin Huaiyuan silently.
Qin Huaiyuan stood with his hands behind his back, and slowly clasped his hands behind his back. The two of them looked at each other in silence for a moment.
Qin Yining really had mixed feelings at this time.
She knew there was a couple in front of her.
But thinking of her mother, she felt it was a betrayal.
From Cao Yuqing's point of view, she was trained as a spy since she was a child and became a killing machine. When she was young, her heart was tied to a man. She gave her sincerity to him, waited for him, and was even ready to give her life for him at any time. . Now that she had finally seen the moonlight, she didn't want to snatch the position of the wife. All she wanted was the status of a concubine. What was wrong with her?
From the father's point of view, there is nothing wrong with a man taking concubines. With his identity and talent, he should bring in as many women as he likes, and no one can point out his fault.
But from the perspective of a mother, her husband who treats her wholeheartedly, while loving her in her heart, also shares her feelings with other women. She can only smile and nod, agreeing to him having other women at the same time, and agreeing to share her husband with her. If you don't nod to others, it means being unkind, jealous, and committing a sin. In order to maintain the family, maintain the relationship between husband and wife, and fulfill another miserable woman, she could only pretend to be generous against her will, and nodded in agreement.
None of them is wrong, and they each have their own difficulties and grievances.
But Qin Yining felt more distressed about his mother.
Qin Yining knew that her thoughts were unacceptable in the current world, but she was filled with emotion that this world was never fair to women.
Qin Yining bowed his knees and quietly stepped away, leaving space for the two of them.
She did not go back to Sydney Garden immediately, but went directly to Xingning Garden.
Mrs. Sun was taking her mother Jin and the girls in the house to check their luggage. Seeing Qin Yining coming, Mrs. Sun smiled and said, "Sister Yi is here. Have you and your father settled the matter?"
"It's settled." Qin Yining smiled and took Sun's arm, "Is mother's luggage ready?"
