Lu Yan saw Wanyao walking away with Yuan's carriage, and then turned around and walked towards Yuwen Yong's teahouse. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
I'm afraid that I have followed Yu Wenyong for too long, and even my temperament is a little similar, especially the poker face, which has no expression all day long.
Lu Yan approached and whispered: "Your Majesty, Weichen met the princess of Qi just now, she didn't leave Chang'an, but coincidentally, Yuwenhu's wife Yuan seems to be very familiar with her, she got into Yuan's carriage, and the carriage drove towards Otsuka Zaifu." ā
Yu Wenyong frowned, lowered his eyes slightly, played with the tea cup in his hand, and broke it with a little force.
In the teahouse, this master and servant were too handsome and dazzling, and the people around looked at the table from time to time, and then whispered. Seeing this, Yu Wenyong immediately took out a certain amount of silver and walked out of the teahouse, followed by Lu Yan.
"Lu Yan, in a while, you will go to the village under Amber Mountain to find out if there is a girl named Yaowan?"
"Yaowan?"
Yu Wenyong suddenly stopped, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?" You know? ā
"I don't know."
Inside the Otsuka Mansion
Xu was frightened, Xu was worried about Li'er, Wanyao tossed and turned on the bed, staring at the bed tent in a daze for a long time, she couldn't sleep, and she couldn't think of who she had offended. Why do you have to put her to death? She has escaped from the Qi Palace, and she has nothing to do with them, so who could it be? Could it be the man with facial paralysis who was slapped by her just now? It's not right to think about it, you don't want to kill someone for a slap, right?
Wanyao really had a headache when she thought about it, so she got up and walked towards Li'er's bedroom.
The scorching sun was shining outside, and Wanyao was panicked, almost falling to the ground, the girl in the house was clever, stepped forward to support Wanyao, Wanyao said thank you, and then left, but there was something strange in the house, all the girls who saw her all opened their eyes and showed surprise after seeing Wanyao, or turned around and ran away in fright.
Mrs. really stayed in front of Li'er's bed, and Li'er also woke up, her face was pale, her face was haggard, and her pair of radiant phoenix eyes were also dimmed at this moment, and she was waiting for the girls to drink the medicine at this time. After seeing Wanyao, she tried hard to pull out a smile.
Madame looked back in the direction of Li'er, and saw that it was Wanyao who was also smiling brightly at Li'er, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and crescent eyes with crooked laughter.
Wan Yao had changed into clean clothes, those were Yao'er's clothes, the pale pink gauze skirt lined the skin was very fair and tender, she walked as light as butterfly wings, and her long black hair was scattered on her shoulders.
Madame looked at Wanyao for a long time, and the corners of her eyes changed from the initial wetness to tears. Wan Yao picked up Juan Pa and handed it to Madame without knowing it, and said, "Madame, isn't there something sad?" Can Wanyao help? ā
After the lady stood up, she took Wan Yao's hand and shook it gently, with tears on her face: "You look so good in this dress, even better than the crescent white dress that your sister wore on her birthday." Last time you said you liked the jade bracelet that Fanbang tributed, your father sent someone to ask for it, and found a craftsman to engrave your name, do you wear it? Yao'er, my son, I've been worried about you for a long time for my mother, but it's okay, you're back. ā
Wanyao broke free of her wife's hand, took a step back, and said: "I think Mrs. recognized the wrong person, the little girl's name is Wanyao, not the Yao'er in the lady's mouth, and I have never seen Mrs. before." ā
Madame took a step closer and grabbed Wan Yao, and even choked up the words she said: "Maybe the Bodhisattva heard my day and night prayers, so it just happened that I saved you." Girl, you are my Yao'er, otherwise how could you look exactly like her? She went, and you came. Who else would you be if you weren't Yao'er? Yao'er, don't scare your mother, your mother's heart is broken with you, how can you bear to make your mother sad again and again? ā
At this, Madame could not hold back any longer and sobbed softly. Wanyao was a little distressed, her chest was stuffy, as if she was pressed by a stone, she couldn't turn a blind eye to a stranger, and she was her benefactor. So he didn't break free anymore, raised his hand to smooth her back, and comforted: "Madam, please mourn, people can't be resurrected after death, and if the dead see you like this, they will not feel at ease below." ā
When Mrs. listened to Wanyao's words, she cried even more hysterically, and her body fell to the ground with Wanyao. Seeing this, Phantom Cloud immediately put down the medicine bowl in his hand, knelt down in front of Wan Yao, looked at Wan Yao with teary eyes, and said in a miserable voice: "Miss Wan Yao, when I saw you yesterday, you tightly protected Miss Li'er in your arms, and the slave knew that you were a girl with affection, my wife had been ill for a long time because of the second lady, and as long as she was awake every day, she would kneel in the ancestral hall to ask the Buddha to protect the second lady, and yesterday her body was just better and went to worship the Bodhisattva, I didn't expect to meet you, this must be the Bodhisattva's manifestation, I'll send you to Madame. Miss Wanyao, for the sake of Mrs. saving your life, stay in the house and be the second miss for us, Phantom Cloud kowtows to you. After saying that, he slammed his head to the ground, and the sound was very loud, and Wanyao's body trembled. Wan Yao hurriedly pulled up the phantom cloud, looking at her forehead was red and swollen, and blood beads had oozed out.
"Phantom Cloud, you go and deal with your wounds first, I want to think about this matter." After saying that, Wan Yao helped her wife to the seat again.
Wanyao was just about to get up and serve a cup of tea to Madame, but Madame leaned forward, stretched out her hand and grabbed Wanyao, with tears in her eyes, and said sincerely: "Maybe you are not my Yao'er, but it is a gift from God to meet Miss Wanyao today." If Miss Wanyao doesn't mind, I want to recognize you as my daughter-in-law, you can live in the house permanently, our husband and wife have come to mourn their daughter, Yao'er and his father have been ill for many days, and they are sad all day long, and their souls are not guarded. If I see you, I think he will be very happy, and we will definitely cherish you even more, okay? ā
Madame looked at Wanyao with sincerity and expectation on her face, and after a while, seeing that Wanyao did not answer, she hurriedly said: "Miss Wanyao's family can also take over and live together, there are many rooms at home." You can live in my house with peace of mind, and no one will dare to hurt you in the future, my husband is the current Otsuka Zai, and he will definitely protect you, and besides, didn't the girl just say that she wanted to repay me? I don't ask you to be a cow or a horse, but for the sake of my old age and daughter, have mercy on me, and are willing to stay with me in this house for some time. ā
Wanyao was deeply touched by the lady in front of her, she was also a motherless child, in the days when her mother just left, she closed herself to death, did not see friends, did not talk to people, and did not even allow anyone to approach. How could she not understand the pain and the expectation of not believing the facts? Madame's pleading eyes were full of tears, and Wanyao's eyes were red.
Wanyao sniffed hard, with a slight nasal voice, and said softly: "Madame, don't be polite, just call me Wanyao." Wanyao was fortunate to be able to get acquainted with her wife, which was already a blessing she had cultivated in her previous life, how dare she ask for too much. ā
When Madame heard this, she immediately understood what Wan Yao meant, and then smiled and said, "It's the blessing of our old couple, so the girl agrees?" ā
After Wan Yao smiled and nodded, she respectfully called her stepmother, and the smiling lady Yuan's eyebrows stretched, and the whole person was as bright as the sun outside the window.
Lu Yan hurried to Wujia Village at the foot of Amber Mountain, and inquired carefully, but he didn't hear of a girl named Yaowan, so he rushed back to the palace overnight.
This was within Yu Wenyong's expectations, and he was not more disappointed, but shook his head, the corners of his mouth rose, a little helpless, and ordered Lu Yan to investigate all the nearby villages to see if there was a girl named Yaowan, Lu Yan received the order expressionlessly and went down.
Yu Wenyong chuckled lightly and said to himself: "It seems that I really have to punish her well next time." ā
