Chapter 17: Chapter House (1)
Wang Xiaoxiao didn't know how she returned to the bedroom, only knew that she was supported by Rufang so that she didn't fall down because of nervousness and weak feet. She rested in bed for most of the day before she regained her normal heartbeat, and she let her out. Taking advantage of the fact that the sun had not yet fallen, she took out the love letter written to her by Dong Mian hidden in her sleeve and read it carefully, and then picked up her pen and dared to reply after thinking about it. Her hands shook every time she wrote a few words, and it took all her strength to barely write a line. Xiaoxiao let out a sigh of relief, glad that she didn't make a fool of herself in words because she was too excited.
"May you don't go back, and work hard to add food." A voice mixed with laughter sounded above Xiaoxiao's head, like thunder, which made Xiaoxiao's ears roar, and even turned pale with fright.
Xiaoxiao hurriedly tore the letter, but Hongyan reached out and held it down: "The peach blossom note is precious, I don't allow you to be so violent." ”
Xiaoxiao was so frightened that tears were about to fall out.
Originally, she was given the title of "non-serious" because she was molested and was driven to Zhuangzi. In the past, her mother also became the first person in Lin'an City because of her private life, but now she is still remembered and has become a model of women's rudeness. If it is rumored that she will also secretly Chen Cang with others, she will really go to the house or throw herself into the lake.
Xiaoxiao knelt down: "Sister spare my life!" ”
Hongyan hurriedly pulled Xiaoxiao up.
Xiaoxiao was originally going to kneel for a long time, but unfortunately her body was too weak, but Hongyan was in good health, so she straightened Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao couldn't, so she had to stand there, her handkerchief was crushed, and a face as pure as a fairy pear blossom brought rain: "Sister, don't make a noise, if you hide it, you are a good person, a benefactor of a slave, and a slave must be a cow and a horse to repay my sister." ”
Hongyan wiped Xiaoxiao's face with a handkerchief: "What are you panicking about, you and my sister, will I still go out to preach?" It's a harm to you and a harm to me. ”
Xiaoxiao thought for a moment.
Also, your bad reputation will indirectly affect your red face. Although she has been married, people are terrible.
Xiaoxiao wiped her tears with a handkerchief and stopped her panic.
Hongyan was a little blamed: "You and his affairs should have been told to me earlier, and I didn't let the Zhou family keep caring about me, and finally let Lin Gongzi fight with him." Lin Gongzi was angry, and knocked a big bag on my brain with a fan, and told me to take care of you. ”
Xiaoxiao lowered her head guiltily and bowed her knees to Hongyan: "My sister apologizes to my sister." ”
Hongyan hurriedly supported her: "Don't come, I'm most afraid that others will do this to me." ”
Xiaoxiao smiled shyly.
It turns out that my sister is so good, she really shouldn't have listened to her mother and father's instigation and worked against her.
Hongyan held her hand and sat down with her on the edge of the bed: "Li Gongzi entered Beijing this time to take the exam, you have a long relationship with his children, didn't you mistake him?" If you put it down for the time being, persuade him to work hard, and when he has a future for fame and fame, he will talk about big things again, and there will be a guarantee. You teach him to write a letter of promise that he will never live up to you. ”
Hongyan laughed, it was a strange promise.
Hongyan persuaded him so in order to dilute the connection between the two. Xiaoxiao's temperament is too soft and cowardly, and Li Dongmian is too ambitious in his eyes, even if they are really together, they will be another pair of resentful couples like Ren Jiulong and Zhang Wan in the future.
Xiaoxiao listened, blushed and nodded: "What my sister said is that my sister will reply to teach him this." ”
Hongyan answered, and let her do it.
Since they can't stop them from falling in love, then they can redeem a little bit, not to prevent Xiaoxiao from being hurt, but also to prevent the Ren family and the Zhang family from losing their faces.
Although Li Dongmian is talented and sleek, he is a scheming person. Originally, saving Xiaoxiao was to value her as a young lady, and with so many people watching, he could become famous and find a Bole as a backer. Later, Xiaoxiao was interested in him, and Xiaoxiao's own life was innocent, and there were millions of family fortunes of the Wang family, and there were Ren and Zhang families behind him. He just wants to rely on others to climb up, where did he ever think of going to the officialdom by himself? Therefore, after reading Xiaoxiao's letter, he only had troubles in his heart and no joy.
Li Dongmian's little servant listened and presented a cup of tea: "Why are you worried? ”
Li Dongmian was angry: "I thought that this matter would be successful, and my sister is now serving as the housekeeper of the mansion, so she will be able to pave a way for the future." I never thought that this Miss Wang didn't know what kind of ** medicine she had taken, so she came to this trick. ”
Listened: "Childe, Gongzi Zhou had a good fight with Gongzi Lin and Miss Ren last time, it must have been your affair." Thinking about it this way, it was Miss Ren who abducted Miss Wang. ”
Li Dongmian snorted coldly: "I know that Ren Hongyan is unconscious, he can play a few noble sons around, and he can also seduce the son, who believes if he is not a character?" Let's just say that Ren's mansion, the big house is clean, and the people below are still looking forward to her, and my sister is not less idle in Renfu. The family management did not go well, and he was scolded by his brother-in-law in vain. ”
Listening to the smile and not speaking, he just silently took out a letter from a small cabinet, and his eyes flashed: "Childe, do you remember this?" ”
Dong Mian took a look at it and said, "Ah, this is a letter written to me by Miss You Er, asking me to enter the house as a house doctor." I have only cared about Miss Wang's affairs for the past few days, and I forgot to reply, and almost destroyed the Great Wall. ”
Dong Mian snatched it, and he was about to start replying to the letter.
Listening to this, he said: "Childe, have you ever thought about why it wasn't Gongzi You or anyone from the You family who sent you a letter, but the second lady sent someone to send it to you?" ”
Dong Mian was about to write with his pen, and when he heard this, he stopped his pen and thought about it. After a while, Dong Mian showed a meaningful smile, and he pointed and listened: "It's still you kid monkey spirit." ”
Hearing that the master comprehended, he hurriedly approached: "Childe, isn't this Second Miss You from a better background than Miss Wang?" Although her appearance is not as good as Miss Wang, her son loves Jiangshan more? ”
Dong Mian swiped the pen on the listening face, and there was an instant black line on the listening white face. Listening did not rub, but affectionately held Dongmian's hand.
Dong Mian laughed: "Don't talk nonsense. ”
Listen to the ambiguous smile: "Naturally." ”
Dongmian replied to Miss You Er, not only willing to go to You Mansion to be a house doctor, but also added an ambiguous sentence or two. Miss You Er is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and soon sent someone to take Li Dongmian into the mansion. Li Dongmian and Miss You Er secretly communicated with each other, and Hongyan passed on the book, which was even more lingering than when he was with Wang Xiaoxiao. Miss You Er is also a wealthy person, and often sends gold and silver to him, so Dong Mian has also accumulated a fortune, and he has also saved interest in the silver village!
Dongmian gained power in the You family, Li Yahuang's waist in the Ren family was also straighter, Ren Jiulong, the new brother-in-law, could get the blue eyes of the You family, he was naturally willing to invite him to eat and drink often, but he didn't know where Zhang Zhu had gone. After the turmoil of the Hongyan incident, no matter how much Rao is Ren Jiulong wants to remain neutral, he can't, he has to choose between the queen and Concubine Lin - and in the end, Ren Jiulong still chose the queen for his sister and completely took refuge in the You family.
In the blink of an eye, Hongyan and Xiaoxiao have been imprisoned for two months. The Double Ninth Festival fell, Ren Yu and Lian were about to arrive in Lin'an, and Ren Jiulong, for the sake of a good reputation, sent Rong Bo to order Zhang Wan to take the children home for the holiday.
happened to be sick and on leave at home, Zhang Wan called Hongyan and Xiaoxiao to visit Zhang's mansion, and euphemistically lifted the confinement of the two.
When my sister came, Dai Zhong naturally didn't stay in Lanhuaxuan, but only flew to Zhang's house, and provoked Mei Zhi to complain: "What a heartless person, come if you want, and leave if you want!" How many good things to eat at my place! ”
Dai Zhong only smiled: "You write it down, and you will pay it back in the future." Then he ran out and rode away.
Zhimei twisted her handkerchief, leaned against the window and muttered, "What do you use?" I am not scarce in silver. ”
Dai Zhong galloped to Zhang's house, and went to his mother before he had time to change his sweaty clothes, and saw that his mother was crying with Hongyan and Xiaoxiao, Dai Xing was also standing next to him wiping his tears, and he couldn't help but shed tears that couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad.
As soon as Hongyan saw Dai Zhong coming, he threw himself into Dai Zhong's arms regardless of it: "Brother! ”
Dai Zhong stroked Hongyan's cheeks, and his eyes, which usually didn't pretend to be anything, were full of distress: "I've lost weight." ”
Yun Tan secretly wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.
This is the first time she has seen Dai Zhong in the past two months, and he is still so generous and uninhibited, exactly the same as what she has been thinking about in the past two months.
Zhang Zicong coughed and was helped out by Zhang Zhu.
Zhang Wan hurriedly went to help: "Dad, you are still sick, what are you doing here?" ”
Zhang Zicong only beckoned to Xiaoxiao and Dai Zhong, and when the two came to his side, he held one in one hand, and his eyebrows and eyes were sincerely doting: "The good boy is so easy to come, I can't see anything anywhere." ”
Zhang Wan smiled: "If you like it, let Dai Zhong bring Xiao'er to see you in the future." ”
Zhang Zhu said: "Dad likes that they will both come together in the future." ”
Dai Zhong was stunned, and Xiaoxiao blushed.
Zhang Wan and Hongyan looked at each other, and saw that Zhang Zicong had no intention of refutating, so they were speechless: Zhang Zicong himself has no son, one of the two daughters left only his favorite granddaughter, and the other gave birth to a strong and heroic son, both of whom have reached the age where they can be said to be relatives.
But where can Zhang Wan agree? Zhang Zicong likes it, it doesn't mean that Zhang Wan and the people of the Ren family like it. Let's not talk about the previous grievances and grievances, Xiaoxiao is already an orphan, even with millions of family wealth, but there is no foundation, no mother's support, and it will not help Dai Zhong's future at all. Marrying Wang Xiaoxiao is a great care for Wang Xiaoxiao, and it is Zhang Zicong's great selfishness. Wang Xiaoxiao herself still has a belonging, and Dai Zhong is also lingering between Yuntan and Fengyue, where can it be?
Yun Tan couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
If Dai Zhong marries the daughter of a high family, he will inevitably not be able to take a concubine before marriage, then his future will be far away; But if she marries Wang Xiaoxiao, as the number one girl in Renfu, it is a sure thing for her to be a concubine. But Dai Zhong's matter has not yet been decided, and she has no idea.
The family was embarrassed with their own thoughts, and the next person came to report: "Master Yu and all the masters: Uncle, Master Ming and Lord Liu are having tea in the front hall." ”
Zhang Zicong hurriedly said: "Zhu'er helped me to the front hall to meet the guests, Ah Da and Xing'er came with me, you mothers and sons play by yourself, don't forget to come out for dinner." ”
Hongyan and the others responded, sent Zhang Zicong to the door, and then turned back.
