Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Lady of the Rivers and Lakes
Xiao Jingxuan is gone.
Listening to Mengchi, Aunt Ying gave him a pineapple brocade box, and after he read it, he left without saying a word, leaving no message.
Yuwen Yanshu understood that this was because he didn't want her to chase after her, and it seemed that Uncle Xiao's death was indeed related to his father. Between the hatred of his lover and the hatred of killing his father, he chose the latter. Reason told her that she couldn't blame him, but emotionally she couldn't help but blame him. How good it would be if you didn't come to Jiangnan, and how good it would be if you didn't come to Guyan.
With the evil fire in his heart, he couldn't help but stab himself twice and cry when he talked to Mengchi, who came to report the news. If it weren't for her mother, Ah Ling would not have doubted her father, let alone gone so resolutely.
And then......
"Auntie, if you don't change your name, you don't change your surname, Zhao Fengniang, people in the rivers and lakes call Xiao Pepper yes. ”
So......
"You don't go out to inquire, is my little pepper easy to mess with, and you dare to bully my cousin at my house. The woman who suddenly fell from the sky slapped the table vigorously, startling everyone.
At first glance, this woman looks a little similar to Mengchi, and her clothes are even more similar, with a red shirt and skirt, and wide sleeves. The difference is that Mengchi has very few decorations on his body, only the hair has been tired of beads and golden hairpins, and the snow-white jade bracelet on Hao's wrist almost blends with Saixue's skin, which is easy to be ignored.
Compared with Mengchi, this person has slightly dark skin, wears a golden phoenix bead and three tails of golden steps, wraps his green blonde hair with twigs and combs his hair, and his swarthy hair is decorated with many soybean-sized jade. There was a fried yellow gold collar around his neck, two gold bracelets on each wrist, and a fine jade pressed the corner of the skirt. Not to mention the gold threads that loom on the clothes. is not like a Jianghu person, but like a nouveau riche woman. From head to toe. Only the pair of red boots on his feet have a bit of the meaning of running the rivers and lakes.
Xia Qiyang is an honest person, and he looked at Mengchi in surprise: "Dream girl." This is your sister?"
Mengchi didn't expect this person to come so uninvited, and said that this was her home, so angry that her face was red and white, and she gritted her teeth and said, "No." ”
"Why are you here?"
She was panicked by Yuwen Yanshu's words, her mother's debt was repaid, although it was not clear, but Xiao Jingxuan left because of what her mother said, which is an indisputable fact. Although Dream Pond is delicate, it is not capricious. The mother did something wrong, and what could she do if she was told two words as a daughter. I have to say that Mengchi is a good girl who is filial.
"Why am I here, if I don't come, you won't be bullied to death. Zhao Fengniang sat down on the chair with a big grin, and commanded a man in Tsing Yi who followed her: "Go, come to a cup of tea." ”
The man in Tsing Yi was thin and tall, with an average appearance, and his eyes were as bright as a dagger out of the sheath. The whole person gives people a cold feeling, as if there is no zài except for the people around him. Listening to Zhao Fengniang's words, she glanced at her coldly.
That glance was really cold and ruthless, and Zhao Fengniang involuntarily shrank when she looked at her. In a blink of an eye, he straightened his waist again and shouted louder: "Don't go yet." ”
The man withdrew his gaze. Only then did I slowly get a glass of water. Ignoring Zhao Fengniang's outstretched hand, it rested directly on the coffee table next to her.
This side of the car. Mengchi is explaining the woman's identity to Yuwen Yanshu and them, and she is the daughter of Mrs. Dream's mother's brother. That is, her cousin.
"It turned out to be her. Qiu Chaoyang said something in his words.
Xia Qiyang muttered in his heart, Mrs. Meng looks so graceful and graceful, why is her niece like this?
Dugu Ling finally persuaded Yuwen Yan to stop his tears.
"I just feel very uncomfortable. Yuwen Yanshu wiped dry tears.
In fact, she also knew that after hearing what happened before, it was already the best thing for Xiao Jingxuan to say goodbye without saying goodbye. Maybe it won't be long before he finds the truth, and that truth has nothing to do with his father, and he will naturally come back. When people are always persistent, letting him follow his heart and do what he should do is the greatest respect for love.
"Who am I talking about, shouting here?" I don't know when, Zhao Fengniang walked in front of Yuwen Yanshu with a look of disgust.
If it was in the past, for this kind of rude behavior, Yuwen Yanshu would definitely not give up and make trouble with her. But now, if you Zhao Fengniang are still Zhao Longniang, no one is her mother, and she is not in the mood to compete with others.
"Cousin, let's tell Dream Girl to leave early while it's still early. ”
Dugu Ling glanced out the window, the sun climbed up obliquely, and estimated the time around: "Okay." ”
Zhao Fengniang, who was not taken care of, was angry, the old lady talked to me personally, you dare not give me face.
I just saw Yuwen Yanshu leave the stool and prepare to stand up. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he pushed her back hard: "I asked you something, and you dare to ignore me, do you know who I am." ”
got up, and Yuwen Yan, who was rudely pushed back, was stunned. I'm going, have you been committing Tai Sui recently, my lover Lao Yan is flying separately, and everything is not going well, and now I have to be such a bully, the tiger is not powerful, you really think I am a sick cat. Thinking like this, anger came up.
As soon as the anger comes up, people are a little uncontrollable. Picked up the teacup on the table next to him and smashed it: "Get out!"
This angry shout was full of inner grievances, infinite resentment, mixed with countless irritability, hatred, and the loud voice shocked everyone. Zhao Fengniang was the closest, and she bore the brunt of it, facing this roar, she only felt that the sound was like a boulder beating in her ears, which shocked her heart, her ears were ringing and dizzy, and she took a few steps back.
The grievances in my heart seemed to be vented with this loud roar, Yuwen Yanshu's heavy heart seemed to be loosened for a moment, and the person was a lot more relaxed, and the previous sadness seemed to have disappeared.
For a long time, there seemed to be the afterglow of that sound in the hall, buzzing.
"Are you practicing the 'Lion's Roar Skill'?" Zhao Fengniang asked cautiously, with a hesitant fear in her eyes, how could such a loud sound be made in this small body?
Qiu Chaoyang looked at her impatiently: "I don't know if I don't hurry up...... Walk. "He originally wanted to say 'get out', but because she was Mengchi's cousin, he still saved some face.
"My mother has been unwell for the past few days. you
Zhao Fengniang hurriedly left here. It's terrible that a little girl has such profound skills. The man in Tsing Yi followed him. Seeing her back almost deserted and fleeing, there was a faint trace of disdain on her expressionless face. The voice just now, although it sounds high, but if you distinguish it carefully, there is no internal force at all, and you can be scared away like this. Master, this time the vision is not good.
"July, are you going to see what's going on?" Mengchi was obviously pale, this cousin was really getting more and more disagreeable. Do you really think that Wuyingzhuang is her home, just come when she says it, and she doesn't say hello, it's too presumptuous.
Yuwen Yanshu insisted on leaving, Mengchi was weak-hearted, and Qiu Chaoyang's beauty did not make her have the urge to stay with them, and instructed her subordinates to prepare supplies and send them out in person.
On the way, Yuwen Yanshu was silent. Dugu Ling is only by her side, dutifully playing a good cousin. The procedure of saying goodbye to the host's family was thrown to Qiu Chaoyang and Xia Qiyang.
From a distance, I saw Zhao Fengniang hiding behind a rockery, and peeked at them sneakily through the vines hanging down like a waterfall on the mountain
"Dream girl. That cousin of yours doesn't look much like you. Xia Qiyang was extremely displeased with her behavior, but his own personality was recuperating, so he couldn't say anything unpleasant.
"I don't like her coming. Just blast it out, you guys are so procrastinating. No wonder they are delusional. ”
Qiu Chaoyang is not so subtle and polite, the matter of Mrs. Meng's mother's family. He'd heard some rumors outside. He never thought of marrying Mengchi as his wife, but he always regarded her as a friend, and if he was a friend, he had to consider her from the position of a friend.
Mrs. Meng's maiden family, the Zhao family in Xuanzhou, turned out to be a famous family in the rivers and lakes. Mrs. Dream's father, Zhao Yueren, loved chivalry and righteousness when he was young, and made many friends from all walks of life. A nine-ring sword dance weighing 18 catties is full of tigers and tigers, splashing water and not entering, and has become the overlord of Jiangnan.
But such a chivalrous and courageous hero has a fatal weakness - lustful, Mrs. Meng's mother was a famous beauty in Jiangnan back then, but unfortunately her face was thin, and her daughter had no choice but to die of illness when she was ten years old.
After that, only half a year, Zhao Yueren welcomed into the outer room that had been raised outside for several years and became the second Mrs. Zhao. However, this one did not last long, and he disappeared in just half a year. After a year, Zhao Yueren's third wife was released, and she was a concubine by Zhao Yueren's original side. This concubine has a son under her knees, who is only half a year younger than Zhao Hongying.
Mrs. Meng was already dissatisfied with her father's mother's bones and brought in the newcomer, and before two years, her father had a third wife. In a fit of anger, he took the people left by his mother and moved to Jingyun Villa at that time.
Jingyun Villa was originally the property of the Zhao family, but before her mother died, Zhao Yueren was assigned to her daughter's name. She was a wise woman who knew her husband and daughter, and had already anticipated what would happen after her death, which was her last retreat for her daughter.
At that time, the Jingyun Villa was not big, only the place where Xiao Jingxuan was outside when he saw it. After Mrs. Dream moved here, she immediately bought several surrounding mountains, and without anyone knowing, she extended hundreds of miles into the deep belly of the mountains.
And the Zhao family has gradually fallen in the past few years, Zhao Yueren was brave and strong when he was young, and he didn't know how to control the woman, he was old, there were problems in all aspects of his body, and he was always unable to be the master of the house, and at the instigation of his wife, he handed over the home to his son, and he took a large group of aunts and sisters to live in a beautiful Zhuangzi outside the city, which was famous: recuperation.
His son is a gentleman who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do anything, Lao Tzu has only learned a lot of kung fu, and it's okay to bluff ordinary people, but he can't control a strong man who is a little big and thick. But he inherited his father's lustful problem very well, and he was not good at management. The Zhao family soon couldn't make ends meet and was stretched thin.
He was afraid that his father would pursue him, so he didn't dare to sell his property. So he listened to his mother's Jianyì and hit the idea to his sister's Zhuangzi. Anyway, my sister is a woman, she has children out of wedlock, she loses her reputation, and she can't get married. The daughter born will also be spilled out of the water in the future, and who else can this Zhuangzi give if he doesn't leave it to himself.
"I also know this reason, but my mother always said that after all, he is a half-brother, and he has done too much, which makes him laugh. What's more, my grandfather is still alive, and he dotes on my cheap uncle so much, and he won't come to the door when the time comes. Mengchi pouted, according to her thoughts, it should be that they went to the door and settled these things with her grandfather.
"Otherwise, let's get married, don't let you get involved, I'll let my mother make this Zhuangzi a dowry for me, and they won't dare to fight the idea here." Dream Chi blinked and looked at him expectantly.
Qiu Chaoyang was shocked, how could it be involved in him: "You just don't get married, and they don't dare to come hard." "Do you think that the secret weapon of Wuyingzhuang is vegetarian? Otherwise, with the shameless Cheng dù of the mother and son, they would have found someone to rob it earlier.
He was bypassed again, and the dream pool retracted his expectations, fortunately, there were more rejections, and she didn't care at all, anyway, she had time, and I believe that one day she would be able to go to the golden stone sincerely. Uncle Lame said that the children of the rivers and lakes must have the spirit of perseverance. (To be continued.) )
