Chapter 244: Confession

"Father seems to be very happy! The sixth brother must also be happy! I just don't know if my mother will be happy if she knows? If my mother is also happy, our family will be really happy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lan Xi saw that his father and senior brother had already arranged the matter, so he put it aside and talked about family affairs instead, and there was two points of schadenfreude in his tone.

The third master Lan was reminded of this, and obviously thought of the third wife's usual love for his son, this matter is really not so easy to handle, but seeing his daughter looking at him with a blank eye, his expression is still a little hateful, even if the third master has more weakness, he also stiffened his momentum at this time, and said, "I am the head of the family, for the sake of your sixth brother's future, I can't be the master again?" In a moment, I will go and tell your mother, "Then you will go with me." You are brothers, friends and sisters, come to me, you should also contribute to the affairs of your sixth brother. ”

Lan Xi raised her eyebrows, which also counted her. After thinking about it, Lan Xi deserved to say cheerfully, "Okay! With me and my father, I will definitely be able to convince my mother and make her happy. ”

Master Lan San muttered secretly, this girl's mind is really hard to guess, and it will change after a while. "Your mother is really, let her go back to the capital first, she has to go, and she has an awkward relationship with me." Although the third master was complaining about this, Lan Xi heard the two different meanings, and couldn't help but purse his lips and snicker, isn't this secretly refreshing? Think the third wife is worried about him and can't do without him?

Lan Xi was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't say anything, and stepped forward quickly and took the hand of the third master. The third master couldn't help but stiffen, when Lan Xi was young, the third wife was a loving mother, so he could only be a strict father, and it seemed that in his impression, the father and daughter had never been so close. He couldn't help but feel a little complicated, what's wrong with this girl?

"Father, you are a good father." is also a good official, so much trouble, in fact, he has long expected that it will be such a result, and all he asks for is a clear conscience. Lanxi was proud at this moment, and she believed that her father, given time, would definitely be like her grandfather and go down in history.

Lan Xun came for a while, and when he heard about it, he was overjoyed at the moment. The father and son discussed it very much, and then they came to the upper room, coaxing and coquettishing the third wife. Even if the third wife was reluctant and worried in her heart, she still agreed, so Lan Xun cheered happily, and hurriedly asked people to simply pack a bag, take his personal servant Yufeng, and the third master specially assigned the two generals to follow him, beat the horse out of the gate of Lanfu, and went straight to the east gate of Huzhou to find Geng Xiwu to meet.

Lan Xi's heart has been added to this matter. Of course, it's not just Lanxi, these days, even if the third master has never said it, the third wife has also understood better, from time to time looking at the non-stop rain outside the house and sighing, occasionally muttering about the third master who is not at home all day, every day, let the small kitchen change the way to make some good supplements for the third master, as long as the third master returns to the house, he will immediately send it. In addition, I muttered from time to time, I don't know if Lan Xun and Geng Xiwu have suffered outside, and if they are eating well? Do you sleep soundly?

Although Lan Xi always persuaded with good words, he had no worries in his heart. Especially looking at the rain that has never been lived, the worries in my heart are even heavier day by day.

The third wife's mood was a little uneasy, and people were always inquiring about the news outside the house, and the people in the house seemed to have a premonition of something, and in recent days, the atmosphere in the house was very calm.

On this day, the third wife, as a few days ago, called the three sisters Lanxi, Lanqin and Lanyu in front of her, and the mother and daughter sat on the couch, or leaned on the pillow, or leaned on the chair, each sitting on a needlework, but they were not as casual as in the past, and even the young Lan Yu seemed to notice something, held her breath and did not dare to say more.

In the afternoon, the third lady rubbed the corners of her forehead, her brows were deeply locked, and Lan Xi stood up and said, "Mother, if you are tired, you should go and rest for a while." "I'm afraid that these days, the third wife is worried about this, and worried about that, she has a lot of worries, and she didn't sleep well at night, but only a few days, she was haggard a lot, Lan Xi saw it in her eyes, she was very distressed, but she should have persuaded it, the third wife is not a fool after all, the current situation, where can she really be relieved. It's Lan Xi herself, why don't she hang her heart, for a while, except to persuade her to rest, there is nothing she can do.

The third lady shook her head and said, "Your father didn't return all night last night, and I heard that the water by the river ..... where I could sleep." Wait, your father will be back in a moment. ”

A few days ago, the water level on the riverside rose again and again, but fortunately, the three old men resisted the doubts of the Manchurian government, and stepped up the dredging of the river and strengthened the embankment when the conditions permitted. However, since yesterday, there has been a faint news that other state capitals have been flooded, even if the local government has deliberately blocked the news, but there is no impermeable wall, after all, the news is still spreading, for a while, there is a lot of noise, there is a lot of panic, are afraid of tomorrow this water, and they will go to their own place.

It rains a lot in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many rivers, so I didn't pay attention to it when it first rained, but now I am panicking. Especially when the news came back yesterday was that the water level was about to be level with the embankment on the riverside outside Huzhou City, the third master did not dare to leave the embankment, and organized his government soldiers, officials, and people who volunteered to help to temporarily raise the embankment with those sandbags and stones.

Even if it is a woman's family, the third wife will not be so ignorant, she naturally knows what she will face if something happens to the embankment, and the third master is now near the embankment, how can you calm down?

Lan Xi naturally knew that she was not worried? Even Lan Qin and Lan Yu looked at each other, and they were all frightened, and quietly sat beside Lan Xi, one left and one right, and pulled Lan Xi's clothes tightly. Lan Xi looked at it, sighed, stretched out his arm, hugged one hand tightly, the mother and daughter were silent, and the maids and women in the house were all silent, and they didn't even dare to come out.

Therefore, when the series of hurried footsteps came to the ears, it felt abrupt and shocked.

The third lady suddenly felt her heart beating uneasily, and the people in the house all turned their eyes to the door, and a figure dressed in a cloak and wearing a hat walked in quickly with a rain, which was the youngest son of Lin's mother's family who was sent by the third wife to inquire about the news, calling for peace. Seeing that Ping'an's face, which always had a three-point smile on weekdays, was so stiff at this moment, Lan Xi and the third wife were uneasy, and sure enough, the next moment, Ping'an's words exploded in their ears like thunder, "Madam, the embankment just broke through." ”

In a word, it is a prophecy. (To be continued.) )
