Chapter 209: Hate
"Chen Xinyao? How did she end up here? ”
On the fourth day of Lan Wu's "illness", at noon on April 22, Lan Xi finally returned to Huzhou City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough it was only a few days, life and death went by, and it felt like a long time had passed. The moment he saw the gate of Lan Mansion, Lan Xi couldn't help but feel moved for a moment.
However, Miss Lan Wu was still "sick", so she naturally didn't want to swagger through the gate, so she was ready to make a detour to the side door and sneak in. Anyway, before she came, the senior brother had already informed her father that someone should pick her up at the side door. Who knows, just as he was about to leave, a group of people came from inside the door, Lan Xi hurriedly pulled Geng Xiwu, and the two hid in an alley opposite Lan Mansion together.
Then he poked his head out and looked out, and saw that it was actually Mother Lin who personally sent people out, and then looked at it, it was actually Chen Xinyao, who had some disagreements with her at the Yufu birthday banquet before, and was afraid that she hated her, and her mother, Mrs. Chen. Seeing this, Lan Xi couldn't help frowning, how could these two come to her house?
"What's wrong?" Geng Xiwu was keenly aware of the change in Lan Xi's mood, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Lan Xi pondered for a moment and said, "It's nothing. "Maybe she thinks about it too much, although there are many officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are only a few who have heads and faces, and they have some dealings with the Chen family, not to mention, Mrs. Chen is also here, what can happen? Chen Xinyao is not sensible, is it possible that Mrs. Chen is also not sensible? Thinking like this, Lan Xi put aside a trace of weirdness in his heart and stretched his eyebrows.
But Geng Xiwu looked thoughtfully at the Chen family's mother and daughter who were boarding the carriage.
Seeing the Chen family's carriage leaving the gate of the Lan Mansion, Lan Xi sighed lightly and said, "Let's go!" Brother. ”
The two of them drove their horses forward towards the west gate of the Lan Mansion.
And on the carriage of the Chen family that was leaving the Lan Mansion, Mrs. Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but the smile on her face had disappeared, and she stared at Chen Xinyao with a solemn face and said, "Although Mrs. Lan didn't say anything, she didn't say half a word of forgiveness. You say you, such a big person, why are you so ignorant? Offended the Fang family and the Lan family all of a sudden, how could this be good? ”
"Mother, daughter knows it's wrong. Didn't I come with you to apologize? Mrs. Lan didn't say anything, but it was unfortunate that she came today, and she couldn't apologize to Miss Lan in person, at most, after a few days, during the Dragon Boat Festival, her daughter would ask Miss Lan Wu for forgiveness in person! Chen Xinyao lowered her eyebrows and said in a sincere tone.
When Mrs. Chen saw her daughter behaving like this, her original anger calmed down instantly, sighed, took Chen Xinyao's hand, and said, "Mother also knows that this matter is actually wronged by my son." It's just that the Fang family has always been unforgiving, and Mrs. Lan is also well-known for protecting her shortcomings, although our family is not afraid of them, but it is not good to offend our family after all, your father ordered our mother and son to come to the Lan Mansion to apologize. After all, the Fang family was biting and refusing to let go, but the Lan family was never going to be stiff again. ”
"Mother, daughter knows." Chen Xinyao nodded, with a look of regret, and even tears in her eyes, "My daughter was indeed too composed, and she was tired of worrying about her father and mother." ”
Mrs. Chen hugged Chen Xinyao into her arms, and there was two points of resentment in her eyes, and she was her own person on the left and right, so she no longer had any scruples, gritted her teeth and said, "In the final analysis, this matter is still the inauthenticity of the Li family and the Fang family." But now in this situation, we can only swallow this breath for the time being. ”
"My daughter understood. The mother can rest assured that when the Dragon Boat Festival comes, her daughter will definitely ask for the understanding of Miss Fang and Miss Lan Wu, so as not to make it difficult for her father. Chen Xinyao nodded, looking sensible.
But Mrs. Chen was distressed, and took the person into her arms and comforted her. I didn't have no resentment in my heart, and I quietly hated the three families.
As the saying goes, if there is a mother, there must be a daughter, and Chen Xinyao's sweet-faced and bitter temperament is not without reason.
After a long while, Chen Xinyao pinched the handkerchief and gently pressed the corners of her eyes wet with tears, as if worried, "That's right, mother." I was in Lan Mansion just now, and I didn't see Miss Lan Wu, but I just heard that she was sick, so it's not a big deal, right? ”
"The old slave went to inquire quietly, saying that a few days ago, Miss Lan Wu suddenly had a rash, and she couldn't see the wind, and she was afraid that she had given it to someone, so she sealed the yard and was raising it, even the people in the house didn't know how sick she was." A mother beside Mrs. Chen whispered back.
Got a rash? A strange light flashed in Chen Xinyao's eyes.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she was stunned for a moment, but after that, she couldn't help but feel happy, and pretended to sigh, "Alas! This rash can be big or small for the daughter's family. Although this Lan Wu girl looks younger than my sister Yao, she should say kiss when she sees it, right? At this time, if there is something wrong with this rash and a scar falls on the face, I am afraid that this family will have to suffer a loss, right? How good is that? No wonder Fang Cai saw that Mrs. Lan's face was not good, and no wonder...... Pity the hearts of parents all over the world. ”
Chen Xinyao didn't say anything, lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth quietly hooked up when the carriage shook.
And in the Lan Mansion, Lan Xi, who was being pressed by Qin's mother to soak in hot water and scrubbed like a dead pig, was very miserable. Didn't she just stay in the mountains for a few days, and for some reason she was a little embarrassed and dirty? Mom had to look disgusted as if she were on the verge of a great enemy, as if she had come out of a beggar's heap.
didn't argue with Mother Qin, but Lan Xi quietly glared at the smoke behind her who was brushing her back, lighten it, otherwise you will be deducted from your monthly money.
Liuyan was so frightened by that look that he gasped, and the movements of his subordinates quietly eased, but in his heart, he scolded his own girl more and more stingy.
Lan Xi saw Liuyan's slightly pursed mouth out of the corner of his eyes, and naturally received the resentment in those eyes, but he didn't feel angry, but instead bent the corners of his mouth and smiled. No one knows how rare and cherished it is for her to be so dull after experiencing those few days in the mountains.
After playing tricks on Liuyan once, Lan Xi's mood seemed to be much better. After taking a light breath, he rested on the edge of the bucket, soaked in hot water, and was comfortably served by the two of Liuyan and Fangcao. After running around in the mountains for a few days, riding horses and fleeing, not eating well, sleeping well, both afraid and worried, where is there in Lanxi that is not tired, and after a while, he is a little drowsy.
After bathing for a while, Liuyan helped Lan Xi up, took comfortable home-cooked clothes for her to change into, and Qin's mother instructed the kitchen to prepare some food for Lan Xi, so she also came over to serve herself.
Lan Xi frowned, and then remembered and asked, "Mom, I just happened to bump into the female dependents of the Chengxuan political envoy family outside the mansion gate, I don't know what they are here for?" (To be continued.) )
