Chapter 162 The Most Difficult Person
Chapter 162 The Most Difficult Person
Mother Lin stumbled back and sat at the door crying, saying that if Qin Wan went back to her parents' home like this, she would hang herself at the door.
Qin Wan: “…”
The barking dog never bites. The woman who is more difficult to deal with than Madam Zhao and Madam Gu Liu is actually this old lady Lin who cries all day long.
Qin Wan suddenly understood and became more and more annoyed the more she thought about it.
Ten households in the eastern suburbs form a Jia, and ten Jias form a Bao. The quarrel between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the Lin family was so intense that the Jia head and Bao head were alerted and came to mediate.
When Qin Wan saw Lin's mother crying, she also started crying, which gave the captain and the head of the village a headache.
After all, this is Mr. Lin’s family, which is always different from ordinary families.
One is a widowed mother who can raise a successful candidate in the imperial examination, and the other is a strong-willed daughter-in-law from her own family.
When they get together, no one gives in to anyone else, which makes things difficult for them.
Finally, it was the captain who asked someone to take a message to the Qin Mansion to ask Cui to come.
In the end, I still said that Wan Fenghui's poems were worse than mine.
Those patients came from the same courtyard and were very well-behaved and obedient. They never walked around randomly, and wore bibs, burned incense, and drank medicinal tea as required. They still got sick. Everyone was shocked and hesitant to carry out Qin Yuan's request.
Mother Lin smiled and said, "Your husband is the only one in your mind. How could you know that? You had a dream tonight. You dreamed that your husband went to Yuyuantan and met two noble ladies. The two noble ladies were impressed by his poetry and praised him a lot. They admired him very much."
Ziqi knew that this would be the result. Looking at the seven mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were obsessed with power, he could only sigh and say, "Of course you also hope that Qin Wan can be humble. A harmonious family brings prosperity. Let's all make some concessions."
Because of that, my cousin almost fell into the eighth place and was granted the status of a retired scholar. Before looking at the list, he kept exclaiming "What a close call!". My cousin and Doctor Liu were at the end of the seventh place and behind the seventh place respectively, and they were staring at each other from a distance.
In order to prevent everyone from following the rules, you also asked Gu Jinghui to ask some guards to patrol the area, and if they found anyone running around, they would record it.
Doctor Liu kept the matter a secret, and when he heard this he asked curiously, "Why did he say that?"
Mother Lin nodded and then shook her head.
……
Mother Lin nodded heavily and looked at Doctor Liu expectantly.
Wan Fenghui said: "Today at Yuyuantan, the poem written by his cousin was also deeply appreciated by the seven nobles."
Doctor Liu also spoke up.
Who would have known that Doctor Liu would be upset for several days because of Lin Ziqi's poem that day. He always felt that all his hard work would only serve to benefit Lin Ziqi.
The patients were sealed outside the yard and were allowed to enter and leave, but Qin Siyuan moved around on his own initiative, and the range of his movement was smaller than that of a few other people.
When the holiday began, Doctor Liu left home and returned to the Imperial College much earlier than usual.
Lin's mother said something.
But from then on, Lin's mother became more cautious and wrote down the whereabouts of the dowry one by one. If Cui wanted to take the money, she had to sign and seal it.
Wan Fenghui was so confused.
Mother Lin immediately shook her head and said, "How is that possible?"
Qin Yuan was puzzled at first, until Dahong sent someone to bring you a note saying that Qin Siyuan had been to the lower room and asked to see Old Madam Gu to check her pulse. He also asked if he could also check on the two adopted sons of the Marquis.
Doctor Liu and Wan Feng were both in high spirits.
I remembered that Wan Fenghui frequently visited the Marquis' Mansion after that, so I asked, "Is it possible that I didn't find someone to help me write a poem?"
Qin Siyuan was placed in a yard closest to the patients, and he only needed to check on the patients' conditions on a daily basis.
"What does that mean?" Doctor Liu asked slowly.
Speaking of Wan Fenghui's future, it was Cui who was most concerned.
Because of my casual movement, a few more patients came outside the palace during those days.
Doctor Liu said, "You think it's possible, but his cousin suddenly wrote a few bad poems, far beyond my usual level."
Cui immediately stopped crying, took Lin's mother's hand and said, "You bad daughter-in-law, you are young and you lost your mind. He should blame you. Qin Wan was sick yesterday. The doctor said that I worked so hard for the imperial examination. You seven mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law just wanted to quarrel and make trouble for me. Nothing is more important than Qin Wan studying for the exam. He said yes, yes, yes?"
Doctor Liu simply lit a lamp and read outside the main room. Only then did Cui calm down and also took her needle and thread and sat by the lamp to accompany him in reading.
She frowned and sighed, "My dear, Wan'er is not even sixteen yet. If she did anything wrong, you can just teach her a lesson. Why did she cry to such an extent and let outsiders laugh at her? Even if Wan'er is stubborn and refuses to listen to advice, you can tell Mr. Lin and tell us. Wan'er is Mr. Lin's legal wife. If she doesn't have a good reputation, how can Mr. Lin have a good reputation? Since ancient times, a man has governed his country and the world by managing his family. If a man can't even manage his family well, how can he be an official and help the monarch govern the world?"
But it was Madam Gu who took the initiative.
Doctor Liu frowned and thought hard. After a long while, he asked, "Did he dream about his cousin?"
Cui was born in the Qinghe Cui family. Although it was a branch, it was also a prominent family. If it were not for her daughter Qin Wan, she would never have set foot in such a place in her life.
People in each yard can run around freely.
My cousin's poetry is good, and that's something everyone in the Qin family knows.
Doctor Liu's future is equally important in the eyes of Lin's mother.
But Lin's mother had a way to tell Lin Ziqi about that matter. Anyway, it wouldn't have any impact even if she told Doctor Liu.
Mother Lin wanted to be intimate with Doctor Liu outside at night, but Wan Feng found a way to ruin it. You said it directly, just throwing things outside the house, making indirect accusations, saying that the older daughter-in-law was cheap and seduced her sick son, who only cared about such a small matter and didn't even care about her own health.
Ever since the establishment of the Dingbei Mansion, Qin Yuan has managed it like an iron barrel.
Doctor Liu remembered the poem that Lin's mother dreamed of, so he asked, "Did you say this poem spontaneously in your dream?"
Mother Lin was concerned about Dr. Liu's performance at Yuyuantan Lake, so she finally found an opportunity to ask him indirectly, "Did your husband meet any noble people when he visited Yuyuantan Lake?"
Mother Lin also gave up the idea of making a scene and said to Ziqi with a smile: "Mom, men are filial, and I didn't disturb you."
In later lives, Imperial Physician Liu won the first place among the seven candidates in the spring examination of the following year. With the recommendation of a nobleman, he passed the examination and entered the Hanlin Academy.
Mother Lin pondered for a while and said, "Cousin, did you make a bad poem on your own initiative?"
In the end, it seemed as if the days had returned to the time when Lin's mother got married. The seven people, mother and children, got along very well, but Lin's mother was excluded and had to stay alone in the empty room.
When Imperial Physician Liu went home on vacation, Cui complained and Lin's mother cried; when Lin's mother complained, Wan Feng cried.
Doctor Liu was deeply moved when he heard this.
The incident finally passed with little fanfare but plenty of uproar.
After some discussion, they discovered that Qin Siyuan was the same.
The activity areas for each group and each person are clearly marked.
Mother Lin said, "You did dream about your cousin, but you didn't dream about me writing poetry."
