Chapter 21: Weird
Rong Wan pushed the door in, but saw that the outer room was empty, and there was no one around, and there was not even a sound.
She didn't know what it meant, so she had to call softly, "Grandmother, Awan is here." ”
No one answered, and there was a deathly silence. Rong Wan was puzzled, and couldn't help but be a little panicked, and hurriedly pushed the door out, and the maid guarding the door bent down to salute her.
Rong Wan turned around and looked at the two servants in front of her, their faces were calm, and they didn't see a trace of turbulence when they saw this, as if someone had already ordered it.
Rong Wan calmed down a little and said to the two of them, "Grandmother is in the house?" Why is there no one in the house? ”
"If you go back to Miss Watch, the old lady has been waiting for Miss Watch in the house!" One of the more clever servants answered, but her voice was hoarse, but she looked like an old woman.
Rong Wan's discomfort was even worse, and the corners of her mouth stiffened slightly, "Maybe my grandmother is in the inner room, why don't the two sisters go and report to Ah Wan!" ”
The maid who spoke just now shook her head, "The old lady has commanded, and you are not allowed to enter without instructions." ”
In this way, Rong Wan made it difficult to let herself go to the inner room, but it was the first time she saw the old lady, if she dared to break into the inner room, it would inevitably make people unhappy, thinking about it like this, there was no other way.
"Xu is my grandmother is tired and wants to rest for a while, Ah Wan is waiting in the outer room, can I trouble the two sisters to make a cup of hot tea?"
The two maidservants were stunned for a moment, and then curtsied their knees and said, "Miss Biao is waiting in the house first, and the maidservants will come soon." ”
Rong Wan entered the house at this time, An An sat on a chair on one side, but after a while, a maid came over with hot tea, made a cup of tea, and retreated, closing the door by the way.
Rong Wan took a sip of tea, and the uneasiness in her heart gradually disappeared.
Judging from the reaction of the two maids just now, they should have been ordered in advance, so this scene must have been arranged by someone else, so she only had to wait quietly for their layout to surface.
Only an hour passed, and another hour passed, and there was still no movement.
Rong Wan's side had already refilled a few cups of tea, and she gradually couldn't figure out what tricks this old lady was doing.
In the previous life, until her tragic death, the old lady of the Hou Mansion had never shown up, let alone expected her to have any feelings for the Hou Mansion, in this life, she just wanted to watch coldly to protect the people she cared about.
After another stick of incense, there was finally a slight cough in the inner room, and then he said, "Qiuni." "Born very old, it should be the voice of the old lady.
Rong Wan didn't step forward, but just opened the door and said to the two maids outside, "Which one is Sister Qiuni?" My grandmother woke up and called Sister Qiuni! ”
The maidservant who had just made no noise nodded, "The maid is Qiu Ni." The voice was crisp, completely opposite to Fang Cai's servant, Rong Wan let in, and let Qiu Ni in.
Qiu Ni entered the inner room and called, "Old lady," and then stepped forward to help Old Madam Qi sit on the couch.
Old Madam Qi looked through the door of the inner room to see the outer room, but she didn't see anything, and said softly, "How is it outside?" ”
"Back to the old lady, Miss Cousin has been here for two hours, but she has not been to the inner room, she just ordered the maid to make some tea and tea, and has been waiting outside."
Old Madam Qi put away her eyes and nodded slightly, "It's quite honest." After a pause, he asked, "What do you think of her?" ”
Qiu Ni took the words, thought about it carefully, and only said one sentence, "Miss Biao is a smart person. ”
Old Madam Qi couldn't help but nodded, Qiu Ni has been by her side since she was a child, and she still has this bit of eyesight, and if she says that she is smart, she must be smart.
If it weren't for Qi Yanran's remark about Rong Wan in front of her after the Hundred Flowers Poetry Conference, she wouldn't have noticed this granddaughter at all. Now that you've noticed, it's an opportunity.
Maybe this time there really is a salvation.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qi couldn't wait to see her granddaughter with her own eyes.
"Qiu Ni, change my clothes."
"Yes, old lady."
Rong Wan sat on the chair and waited for a long time, very calm, and when Qiu Ni helped Mrs. Qi over, Rong Wan saw her so-called grandmother for the first time.
Mrs. Qi is about sixty years old, although her face is not full of wrinkles, but she is already very old, her face is a little pale, and she can even see that her body is a little uncomfortable, but her whole body still exudes nobility, which makes people unconsciously retreat.
"Ah Wan greets her grandmother." Rong Wan looked at it slightly, then bent down and saluted, and the upbringing was also appropriate.
Mrs. Qi sat on the top and carefully looked at Rong Wan, who hung her head, and couldn't see her face, but she saw that her black hair was bright, her ears were white and transparent, but she was slightly red, and her thin neck was very good-looking.
"You're Rong Wan? Look up and show your grandmother. The voice in the ears was very kind, and it was hard to imagine that my grandmother, who had ignored them for so many years, could be like this.
Rong Wan raised her head, her skin was white and beautiful, her face was clear, and her eyes contained brilliance, which really made people unable to take their eyes off.
Old Madam Qi couldn't help but secretly say in her heart, she is indeed a beautiful embryo, she is only thirteen years old now, she is so eye-catching, and the excitement that pressed into her heart, Old Madam Qi coughed lightly.
"Come, Wan'er, come to my grandmother." Old Madam Qi beckoned, her face was full of smiles, as if she had always been a very loving grandmother, but Rong Wan always felt that there was something strange in her heart, but she couldn't say it.
Rong Wan walked in front of Old Madam Qi, and when she got closer, Old Madam Qi stretched out her hand to put Rong Wan's face on the house, her fingers slid through her eyes, then to her nose, and finally to her mouth, "Wan'er has such a good face at a young age, very similar to when your mother was a child." ”
If Rong Wan didn't have the experience of the previous life, I am afraid that she would really sink into the sweet words of the old lady Qi who she had never seen before, but it was a pity that she only felt that there was something staring at her now, which made her whole person feel thorns in her back, and she did not dare to relax in the slightest.
"What my grandmother said is that Ah Wan is the daughter of her mother, so she is naturally very similar to her mother."
Speaking of this, Old Madam Qi's face was a little stunned, and she seemed to be slightly sad, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen your mother for a long time, my body has always been very weak, and I rarely see people." ”
Rong Wan nodded, "My mother knows that my grandmother is not in good health, so I don't dare to disturb my grandmother, but if my grandmother wants to see my mother, my mother will definitely come." After saying this, Rong Wan was a little excited.
Seeing Rong Wan's somewhat excited appearance, Mrs. Qi couldn't help but smile slightly, maybe after so many years, such a chess piece has not been abandoned, fortunately, she was in time, "While I am in good health these days, you go back to the house and tell your mother, so that she can come and see me!" ”
"Ah Wan knows. Grandmother must take care of herself. ”
Seeing Rong Wan's sincere appearance, Mrs. Qi couldn't help but feel relieved, "You have nothing to do on weekdays, and you come to accompany Yanran more, you two sisters, you can read together and talk about your heart." ”
"Yes, grandmother." Rong Wan lowered her head again and narrowed her eyes, from Qi Yanran's attitude that day, Rong Wan knew that Old Madam Qi must be very majestic, but now Old Madam Qi's attitude has changed greatly, which makes her very weird, it seems that she can only be careful.
