Chapter 337 Today is different from the past


    The next day, Qin Chi returned to Qinjiagou.


    I met my parents and elders, and then went to meet the clan leader. The clan began to prepare for ancestor worship in full swing, and Lao Qin''s family also began to prepare to choose a date to hold a flowing water feast.


    Everyone else in the family is busy.


    Only Song Jin is relatively free. The reason is that she will give birth next month, and everyone subconsciously avoids her and goes to see Li when they have something to do. Qin Chi was also too busy to get away.


    Many people come to visit him every day, and he also has to visit his former teachers and hand over invitations.


    Song Jin spent time with her children when she had time.


    In addition, I asked about the business in Huizhou.


    Today Song Jin is sitting in the small courtyard, Hu Zi is reading on the stone table, and Niu Niu is very clingy and is lying on her lap talking.


    A figure appeared in the archway in front of the courtyard.


    "Hey, my sister is rich."


    This man started acting strangely as soon as he arrived.


    Song Jin raised her eyelids and glanced at Song Xiu, "We haven''t seen you for a year, but you still haven''t changed."


    Not wanting the two children to see their tit-for-tat scene, Song Jin asked Xiaoyu to take them away.


    Before the two children left, they still politely said hello to Song Xiu, and then left hand in hand.


    Song Xiu waved her embroidered handkerchief and sat opposite Song Jin.


    Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with a mean look on his face, and at the same time, he was full of hostility. A blind person could see that. Also, Song Xiu''s clothes and jewelry didn''t look fashionable. .


    "Are you having a bad life?" Song Jin suddenly asked.


    Song Xiu''s face contorted for a moment when she heard this, "I am living a good life. I have no shortage of housing, food, and clothing."


    "That''s good, it''s really good."


    Song Jin actually followed Song Xiu''s words, which made Song Xiu''s face stiffen again.


    When Song Jin came back, even if she didn''t inquire, she still knew a lot about what happened in the fourth room. Qin Mingsong had not been at home for a long time, saying that he was studying outside. Song Xiu suspected that she was fooling around with Bai Cuiwei, and went to keep an eye on Bai Cuiwei when he didn''t find Qin Mingsong. Cui Wei.


    Bai Cuiwei couldn''t bear it anymore and moved.


    At this time, his whereabouts were unknown, and he was said to have become a monk.


    Qin Mingsong is really studying. He often communicates with others and asks for advice. In the past, not many people would betray his reputation, but later Qin Chi won the top prize, and Qin Mingsong really benefited from it.


    The advantage of having Qin Chi''s invisibility is.


    Some people don''t mind giving him a good deal, and Qin Mingsong will also give some advice when he comes to ask for advice.


    Today, Qin Mingsong came back after receiving the news and took Song Xiu with him.


    When Song Xiu came over, her eyes fell on Song Jin''s swollen belly from time to time, "The baby is about to be born."


    "Well, next month."


    Song Jin''s eyes glanced at her belly, but he didn''t ask any questions.


    But when Song Xiu saw her looking at his belly, he knew what it meant even if she didn''t ask. Suddenly, a wave of anger rushed into his heart, and he was so aggrieved that he couldn''t vent it.


    After losing my second child.


    Song Xiu never got pregnant again, and even after seeing a doctor, there was no improvement.


    Song Jin said, "Why do you come to see me?"


    "It''s okay, just come and take a look."


    Song Xiuruo said that it was impossible not to have envy and jealousy in her heart, but it had happened too many times, and she had become somewhat used to it, so she said with a bit of sourness, "I stopped by to congratulate you, sister. I heard that you have been blessed with a royal decree. Yes." A respectful person of the fourth grade.”


    "Well, the emperor''s grace is great."


    Song Jin replied calmly, then lowered his head and stroked his abdomen.


    The two never thought that one day they would sit here and talk calmly. It can only be said that Song Xiu has grown up, or it can also be said that there are fewer gatherings and more separations, and some of the grievances and grudges in the past seem superficial.


    Song Xiu smiled reluctantly.


    Ever since the two of them returned home in fine clothes, Song Xiu, even though he had not left home, still knew how much of a sensation Qin Chi had caused when he returned to his hometown to visit relatives. There was still a lot of people outside, which meant that the back house was quiet.


    "Sister is doing great now, and I feel ashamed of myself." Song Xiu seemed to want to give a few compliments, but something didn''t taste right when it came out of her mouth. At least Song Jin felt uncomfortable after hearing this, "What is your purpose of coming here? Just tell me directly."


    Song Xiu tugged on the embroidered handkerchief, "No, last month someone donated a Zhuangyuan archway, which is almost completed. The clan is also building a clan school, repairing the ancestral hall, and purchasing clan fields. I heard that it is Qin Chi donated a large amount of money, how long has he been an official? "


    "What do you want to say? That he took money and returned to his hometown to work as a money-splitting boy?" Song Jin raised his eyebrows.


    Song Xiu said dryly: "I don''t mean that."


    "What do you mean?"


    Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with a half-smile.


    Song Xiu wanted to talk back to Song Jin forcefully, but in the end she didn''t have the confidence to back down.


    No matter how stupid you are these years, you can finally realize that what Song Jin said in the early years was not false. She said she would never pay attention to her again, so she really ignored her. Since I left Huizhou, I haven''t written a letter to her, sent her anything, and I haven''t asked about her life.


    Sit for a while longer.


    Song Xiu probably found it boring, so he found an excuse and left.


    If you have nothing to say to Song Jin here, you might as well go outside and listen to people flattering you.


    Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!


    While at the arch, Song Xiu met Qin Chi.


    Qin Chi greeted politely, "I''ve met my aunt."


    Song Xiu responded awkwardly and left.


    Qin Chi came to sit in front of Song Jin, then looked at the archway where no one was standing, "Isn''t she coming to cause trouble to the lady?"


    "I''ve grown a little bit."


    Song Jin wanted to say that it was probably reality that taught her how to be a good person, "When people come over on their own initiative, they probably want to take advantage of our husband-in-law. She used to clamor all day long not to let us take advantage of the family after the separation, but now she wants to take advantage of our husband-in-law." It’s funny just thinking about it.”


    Qin Chi understood and couldn''t help but laugh: "This is unavoidable. Fortunately, the families have been separated, and the light they can get is limited. After all, we are already two families."


    "I know."


    Song Jin didn''t take it to heart.


    Qin Chi said with emotion: "After all, I still want to thank you, Madam."


    "Thank me for what?" Song Jin asked with a raised eyebrow.


    Qin Chi knew that she was asking questions knowingly: "It''s just something outside. You asked Xing Lun to do it. Many Huizhou businessmen also joined in, contributing money and efforts."


    "I just asked Xing Lun to start."


    After Song Jin confirmed that Qin Chi was going back to his hometown to visit his relatives, he sent a letter asking Xing Lun to return to Huizhou to do some things. Some of them were things led by Huizhou merchants, and some were good deeds done in the name of Qin Chi.


    Don''t mention things that benefit the clan.


    Just a series of good deeds such as building bridges and paving roads, which benefited the local people, brought Qin Chi''s good reputation to a higher level.


    Therefore, before Qin Chi returned to his hometown, his reputation was already very good in Huizhou. In addition, some things that happened after Qin Chi entered the court and became an official were gradually spread back to Huizhou.


    He was promoted to the fourth rank in about a year.


    Even if these four grades have not yet been implemented, Emperor Mingcheng''s golden mouth has been opened, and it is a matter of ironclad certainty.


    There was a family dinner in the afternoon.


    Everyone was here, not only the old Qin family, but also the married daughter and uncle who brought their family to the house.


    Song Jin has to show up this time.


    I unexpectedly met Qin Mingsong during the dinner.


    There seemed to be some changes in Qin Mingsong. Song Jin couldn''t tell specifically what the changes were. It was probably because he was no longer as good as before. After all, he was no longer the most promising person in the old Qin family.


    Qin Chi sat in a conspicuous position and talked and laughed.


    Today is different from the past.


    Even if Qin Chi is not superior, he seems to be a person that many people cannot reach.


    Song Jin looked at this scene and suddenly felt relieved.


    After all, she was the one who lived a life that the three of them could not reach...
