Chapter 127: Turnaround

Xiu'er was ignorant and unconscious, still lamenting the miserable situation of Mrs. Lu, so she muttered to Wanchun: "In the end, this old lady is really miserable, and her children are rich and rich, but unfortunately they are not filial." ”

Wanchun nodded thoughtfully, but she didn't listen much to Xiu'er's words, because her legs and feet were not very neat, and the distance from the next door to the ward was only a few meters, and the master and servant walked for a few minutes before returning to the room. Wan Chun was bent on remembering the dowry that the old lady Lu said, and secretly wanted to find an opportunity to inquire carefully. It's just that the old lady is very guarded, and she is afraid that she will not be able to ask the real situation easily, so it is better to start with her daughter.

Lu Jianskirt is not as measured as her mother and eldest brother, as long as she is slightly tempted, she is not afraid that she will not be able to ask. It's a pity that she has called the old lady out now, and I don't know when she will be able to come to the hospital.

Before the case was resolved, Wanchun couldn't help but feel a little worried in her heart, and she was always absent-minded.

Let's say that Cuizhi got Zhongqing's password, and sure enough, she took the car from the house to the hospital in the evening, and still took care of Wanchun with Xiu'er. Wan Chun asked about the physical condition of her mother Yu and nephew, and Cuizhi smiled: "The fever of the little master has subsided a lot, and the wife's spirit is better than yesterday, but the phone call from Jiujing trapped her, and she was still talking to the master in the house when I came." My uncle is fine today, and he has been accompanying him in the living room since my aunt and aunt came. ”

"Did Jiujing call again?" Maybe it was because he went out and inadvertently suffered the cold, Wan Chun coughed lightly, stroked his chest and asked, "But what is it for?" ”

Cuizhi shook her head and said, "Then where can I know?" I'm not our wife's ear, she answers the phone in the house. But I heard my wife and the second lady mention it yesterday. It is said that after the lord and the uncle returned to Beijing, what garrison troops had been withdrawn. He also said that if Miss Four's injury was not completely healed, she would stay in Shanghai for a few more days. I see. Today's phone call is probably still these, but I will add a few words of greetings to Miss Four. ”

Wan Chun bit her lower lip, although Cui Zhi had only learned three or four percent of the language, she had already understood that the garrison must be the two columns of men and horses sent by the presidential palace. This makes people very curious, in that bombing case, the presidential palace clearly found a reason to monitor the Jing'an official residence, at this moment the anti-Japanese tide has not passed, why did the presidential palace suddenly say that it would withdraw its troops without cause and effect?

Wanchun is far from the political center. I really can't guess or think through these things, but fortunately, Jiujing has his grandfather and father guarding him, and nothing will happen. Now it's important to be busy with her affairs, since the phone call has reached the Fengqiao Mansion, her injuries are almost healed, and her mother will definitely have the idea of returning to Beijing, and her time to move is running out.

Looking at Cuizhi, she remembered that her second sister Zhongqing didn't know if she had done what she promised Lu Jianskirt, so she said again: "When you come." Did the second sister not go out at home? ”

Cuizhi said: "I shouldn't go out, my aunt and aunt are still waiting for her to speak, and my wife and aunt are here, where can she go?" How. Does Miss Fourth have something to find Miss Two? ”

It would be best if Zhongqing didn't go out, there was always room for things to turn around. Seeing the Lu family again in this way was not what she wanted. All she can do is go step by step without regrets.

Wan Chun nodded and said, "I have something to ask her, I don't know if the second sister is free?" ”

Cuizhi smiled: "My own sister." What is empty and not empty, there will be guests at home. It's not good for me to call her, wait for my aunt and aunt to leave, and then call the Fengqiao Mansion, and the fourth lady can tell the second miss directly if she has anything. ”

"Then wait until after dinner."

Wan Chun smiled, that dowry may be the last memorial left to her by her mother, no matter what, she has the right to know the truth about the dowry, but how to get it?

If she is Xie Yaxian, or she may be qualified to ask for the dowry back, but she is not now, she can't ask Miss Li Si to make someone steal and rob it, wouldn't it be a trace? But if you don't do this, it is difficult to let Lu Jianskirt steal it for her, so why?

Slowly bending over and hugging her knees, Wan Chun half-turned her head to the pillow and looked silently ahead, the white bed, white floor and white wall, connected end to end everywhere, creating an illusory scene, and she was trying her best to see a different scenery from this illusion.

Lu Jianskirt's intention to seek a future for her husband is good, but from Mrs. Lu's side, she doesn't seem to think so. If this person seeking a future is replaced by Lu Jianhao or Lu Jianpeng, the old lady will definitely not have this attitude.

Lu Jianpeng? Yes, she let Lu Jianskirt and Mrs. Lu live together, but she forgot about this good person. If she was to seek a future for Lu Jianpeng, the old lady would definitely help her, didn't she want to know what the dowry was? As long as she leaked a little in front of Lu Jianskirt, she knew that she could find an errand for Jianpeng, and she only needed to spend some money on the Lu family. Although Lu Jianskirt didn't have the money, she would definitely tell Mrs. Lu about this, and the old lady was more compact in her hands, and she would always think of a solution for her son's career. So, if nothing else, the dowry hidden behind her back should be shot, right?

Crash! Cuizhi closed the thick velvet curtains on the floor, and the room was only lit by electric lights, if it weren't for her actions, Wanchun would almost not know that the sky had become dark to the bottom of the pot, and when people were in a daze, time always felt like it was stolen by others, and it passed so fast.

Because of the doctor's instructions first, Xiu'er estimated that the time was pouring tea and waiting for her to take medicine, Wanchun took the tea and medicine in her mouth, and swallowed it with a grunt. The medicine is prescribed by Western medicine, and the particles the size of the fingernails of the little thumb are wrapped in a layer of dark green sugar, which is not very effective on the wound, but only anti-inflammatory. It's just that she was in a hurry, and the pill was stuck in her throat, and the sugar coating was dipped in water and slowly melted, and a bitter and bitter breath came out of her throat.

Cuizhi went to pour water, opened and closed the door, and the wind brought up between the opening and closing of the door panel actually blew every corner of the curtain, revealing a touch of darkness in the outside world.

Such a good night, but an unexpected guest came and disrupted her contemplation.

I saw Cuizhi standing at the threshold, opened half of the door and said inward, "Fourth Miss, Miss Mei sees that you are here." ”

She has been in Shanghai for many years, and she has followed Zhongqing to the theater to listen to a lot of plays, and she is naturally very familiar with Mei Ruolan and herself, and Mei Ruolan is also smiling and bowing her head to the door.

Her visit was so sudden that Wanchun couldn't help but be surprised, so she had to smile and invite Mei Ruolan to sit down. Maybe she just left the stage, Mei Ruolan's face was still wearing unseasonably heavy makeup, and she could still see the blue eyeshadow on her eyelids. She sat down, naturally she wanted to ask Wan Chun how her injuries were, it was true that there was no friendship between the two of them, but because of Du Jiu, Mei Ruolan was still kind to Wan Chun. She knew that Wan Chun was very surprised by her sudden visit, so she smiled first: "After that day's farewell, the Grand Theater was really busy, and I never had time to come over to visit Miss Four, so I hope Miss Four is not surprised." In the past two days, a group of newcomers have come to the theater, and they can always hold up the scene, Du Jiuye will be gracious and allow me a few days off, so I will have a lot of time, and I will have nothing to do when I go home left and right, if the fourth lady is not annoying, leave me to accompany you to say a few words, okay? ”

Wan Chun smiled silently, since Du Jiu came in as a doctor that day, he hadn't been seen for a few days, and she thought he had let him go, it turned out that she had underestimated him. However, Mei Ruolan is really a caring and shrewd person, and a few words made her difficult to refuse her request, so she had to laugh and say: "I naturally welcome Boss Mei to come, but I'm afraid that this place is shabby and the hospitality is not good." ”

Mei Ruolan looked peaceful, but she didn't mind this. Today's visit is not all about Du Jiu's wishes, she herself had the intention of coming to visit, but it was more appropriate to come out through Du Jiu's mouth, after all, she is still a little estranged from Wanchun in her heart. -- This estrangement has nothing to do with the wind and moon, but about status.

Humble people are always afraid of meeting outstanding people, which will only highlight their humility even more. However, the humble are willing to be close to the great people, so that they can know where their own lowliness lies. She happens to be such a contradictory person, knowing that Du Jiu's treatment of Miss Fourth will definitely be different from others, but she still wants to understand where the difference is.

Xiu'er brought the tea to her, she took it and thanked her, the cup was made of sea porcelain, not like it was used in the hospital, it was probably brought out from home, chic and small.

The bottom of the cup circled the feet, and the heat passed down the edge of the cup, Mei Ruolan held the bottom of the cup with her palm, absorbing a little warmth and smiled: "Come here so late, the fourth lady doesn't dislike me for disturbing your recuperation, it's already extraordinarily kind, how can you say that the hospitality is not considerate?" It's very cold outside, and it's still the end of autumn, and the wind blows on people's faces, like a knife, and it's almost winter. ”

She didn't have anything to say, so she didn't make the house too embarrassed, Wanchun was also a lot more casual, no matter what Mei Ruolan's purpose was for this trip, she believed that she would not hurt herself, so she said: "That's not possible, it's only late October, and it has to be November to enter winter, and this may be a cold wind transiting." ”

"No wonder, it's so cold that people shrink their necks." Mei Ruolan's smile is much more sincere, although there is a difference between her and Wanchun's status, but the two have the same heart. I don't know why, when I saw the face of this fourth lady, she always had something to say, but she didn't bring a task, and she was willing to gossip. Thinking about it, it's probably because Wanchun never takes Miss Four's shelf, and the wonderful and approachable girl will always make people happy. (To be continued.) )
