Chapter 219: A Dead Man Meets on the Streets of Los Angeles

"It's the eldest daughter of the county lord of Qinglai, Liu Yunxian." Master Shu pursed the corners of his mouth and replied with a smile, although the people of the capital have always known about the disagreement between the county lord of Qinglai and Mrs. Shu, but the daughter of a county lord can give you a merchant as a wife, which is a big face!

An Guogong did have the expression that Master Shu wanted to see on his face, vaguely moved, and a little excited, after being excited, calm down, or return to the essence of the matter......

"Yuntang and Qinglai have been at odds since they were children, but fortunately, His Majesty and the Queen Mother love Yuntang even more, so they suppress the eldest princess when Yuntang and Qinglai are fighting; And the eldest princess is not His Majesty's sister, nor was she born to the Queen Mother, so naturally her affection in front of the Queen Mother is not as good as her own sister's daughter, but ...... You also know that Yuntang's temper will never agree to let Qinglai's daughter marry into the Shu family. ”

An Guogong's face was also a little worried, this is the biggest problem, if he can't get Mrs. Shu's side, even if the county lord of Qinglai wants to marry his daughter, there is no way to do it......

As for Shu Wangjin, even if he is a thorn in the pan and difficult to deal with, he is also the son of Master Shu, and if a filial piety is pressed, he must obediently marry Miss Liu, so it is not a big problem on his side...... However, Mrs. Shu is a big problem here! If she didn't agree, it would be impossible for Master Shu to help his son marry the daughter of the county lord of Qinglai......

"Guogong...... I also know about this, so I came to ask for help from the prince. Master Shu sighed a few times, he has really broken his heart for this marriage recently. Even the hair is a lot grayer.

If it weren't for the Shu family and for Shu Wangjin, why should he be unpleasing in these two places?

An Guogong is also quite considerate of Master Shu's difficulties. Therefore, with a wave of his sleeves, he directly agreed, "You can rest assured that this matter will be handed over to me, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory result when the time comes." ”

He is full of confidence in this matter, after all, he knows Mrs. Shu's character very well, although he does not say that he dislikes the poor and loves the rich, but he greatly admires talented and capable women. And Liu Yunxian, the daughter of the county lord of Qinglai, although she said that her appearance was not very good, at least her talent was really praised by the masters of calligraphy and painting in the dynasty.

Moreover, although Liu Yunxian's appearance is a little worse. But marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, with the county lord of Qinglai as the backstage, presumably the Shu family's business will go to the next level! Seeing this, Shu Wangjin wanted to marry an illiterate peasant girl, and the woman's appearance must not be bad; When the door is closed. Who cares who you love? Besides. The daughter of the county lord is also a county lord, although her status is not as noble as the county lord, but she is much stronger than the peasant girl......

"In this way, I am really grateful to Guogong......" After listening to An Guogong's words, Master Shu was really happy, and even his voice began to become unstable.

Let's talk about Los Angeles again, Lin Mei and Qing Yan are wandering the streets at this time, since Lin Mei's last incident. Shu Wangjin now will definitely send two or three Shu family servants to follow wherever she goes, originally he wanted Shu Zhou to follow. But there are too many socials and acquaintances here in Los Angeles, and Shu Zhou's left and right hand is really indispensable, so he filmed another person to follow Lin Mei.

In broad daylight, Lin Mei sneezed several times for no reason, and Qing Yan, who was standing on the side, immediately wrinkled her nose in disgust......

As everyone knows, this is precisely because Master Shu and An Guogong are talking about her!

"You hate me so much, so why do you follow me when I go out? Isn't it self-deprecating? Lin Mei touched her red nose and glanced at Qing Yan helplessly, "Besides, Shu Wangjin and Suzhou don't come out, don't you like to follow Shu Wangjin the most on weekdays, why do you want to follow me now?" ”

"You love following you so much!" After hearing this, Qing Yan glanced at Lin Mei with disdain, and said with a pout, "Today is the big gathering in Los Angeles once a month, there will be many fresh gadgets sold on the street, and this is a coastal area, and commerce is developed. Many merchants from other countries also sell their own things here, especially the clothes and headdresses, some of which are really beautiful......"

When it comes to this jewelry box and clothes, two women who have a bad relationship can turn enemies into friends, and they chatter.

Lin Mei was naturally no exception, her eyes immediately lit up, and she took Qing Yan's hand and said, "Really? Let's go check it out...... By the way, how much silver did you bring out today, will it not be enough, do you want us to go back and get more silver? ”

"Not enough money?" Qing Yan seemed to have heard the funniest joke, and smiled, his little face was full of arrogance, "Our Shu family is the one who prints silver tickets, and only our Shu family cooperates with the imperial court in the whole world!" How can there not be enough silver? It was Madame, and the water she bathed in every day had to be the nectar that hundreds of people had painstakingly collected every morning; It's this bucket of water, and you have to spend dozens of taels of silver to hire someone! Not to mention the petals and incense powder used in every bath, which is not the best thing? Some of them can't be enjoyed every day even if they are afraid of the ladies in the palace, but our Shu family is rich, so it naturally doesn't matter......"

Lin Mei was really dumbfounded this time, in the few days she stayed in Shufu, she also felt that Mrs. Shu's life was luxurious and graceful, but she didn't expect it to be so extravagant...... Sure enough, she was lonely and unheard!

"Even if there is less silver on the body, there is our Shu family's money in this Los Angeles, just take the token given by the young master and show them at that time, how much silver will you take at that time?" Qing Yan raised his chin, and his tone was full of pride; This is also due to the fact that she followed Shu Wangjin, otherwise even Shu Yujin would have strict rules for Qingyu.

Shu Wangjin is a man after all, and he doesn't care much about women spending money on clothes and rouge gouache, and Qing Yan is the most favored big girl in the Xiuwen Academy for so many years, so she naturally doesn't worry about food and clothing, even if she is a daughter with a poor family background, I am afraid that she will not have such a good treatment!

Lin Mei was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and only after a long time did she remember to nod her head in agreement with Qing Yan's point of view. Touching the lotus bead bracelet that she kept close to her, Mrs. Shu once told her that this was a token of the Shu family's housewife. It seems that she should also keep it and not lose it......

"Why are you still stunned there?" Qing Yan walked a long way, only to find that Lin Mei didn't follow, and she was really afraid of Shu Wangjin's punishment, so she turned around and came back.

"Ah...... It's okay, let's go there and look at the clothes! And also...... You see, how the woman was dressed so revealingly. Not ashamed at all! As she spoke, Lin Mei pointed to an exotic woman who was buying jewelry on the side of the road, and whispered in Qingyan's ear. But the gems on her forehead are so beautiful! ”

"Oh, you said the woman...... It was the people of Persia, and the women of their country were all dressed like that......" Although he said this, Qing Yan also had the same hostile eyes towards the woman as Lin Mei.

No way. The woman was both in shape and in appearance. is much more brilliant than the two of them, no wonder the two of them say so sour......

"Forget it, it's someone else's business anyway, let's go over there and have a look!" Lin Mei pointed to the big mansion with atmospheric blue tile walls on the side, which was quite interesting; There were many people coming and going at the door of the house, including men and women, and I don't know what place it was, but it was so lively.

Qing Yan glanced over there. I was also a little interested, and nodded and said. "Then let's go over there!"

The two little servants behind them had no choice but to follow the two of them into the big mansion; Shu Wangjin said it explicitly, if he loses it, he is afraid that the lives of the two of them will not be guaranteed......

Lin Mei held hands, looking like two sisters, and was about to walk in with high spirits.

At this time, I heard a gentle female voice behind me, "The two young ladies in front, can you please stop?" ”

Lin Mei and Qing Yan glanced at each other, and only then turned around after calling the two of them, and then saw a middle-aged lady with a beautiful face dressed in gorgeous clothes standing behind the two of them; The noble lady was followed by two maids and four guards, and it seemed that the origin should be not small...... It's just that Lin Mei doesn't know what this noble lady is doing when she stops herself and Qingyan? I don't know her, could it be Qingyan?

Thinking like this, Lin Mei glanced back at Qing Yan, and when Qing Yan saw Lin Mei looking at her, she immediately glared back, and said viciously, "What do you see, I don't know her!" ”

The noble lady smiled when she heard this, looked at Lin Mei gently, her eyes were quite relieved and sighed, and she said, "Looking at your appearance, you are really more and more similar to your mother...... However, seeing you like this, you have forgotten all about me. ”

Qing Yan immediately looked at Lin Mei, indicating that this person knew not me, but you......

Lin Mei was a little embarrassed when she heard this, she really couldn't remember this noble lady, and she ...... Listening to her tone, it seems that she is very familiar with her mother, and she should have seen herself; But why didn't she remember anything?

The lady's face darkened slightly, and her tone was full of sorrow, "But it's not wrong that you don't remember me...... When I saw you, you were only a few months old; Later, when I saw you again, you didn't remember me anymore. I just watched you frolic and play from afar, watching you be naughty like a boy, your mother has to help you clean up the mess every time, how can you still have the gentle temperament of the year? ”

"Madame...... I really don't remember...... But, madam, do you know my mother? Lin Mei asked cautiously, and suddenly remembered that her mother had also said that she would bring herself to Los Angeles at that time, as if she was going to come here to join a friend of her when she was a child...... Could it be this lady?

It's just that...... That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it? Los Angeles is not small, and it was encountered like this, which made Lin Mei feel full of strangeness.

The noble lady smiled slightly, looked at Lin Mei's eyes full of love, and said softly, "It's okay if you don't remember me, you didn't remember me at that time, how could you remember me?" However, I have been friends with your mother for more than ten years, and she watched me get married and sent me to travel with my husband. Later, after several years, I saw her again; At that time, you had just been born, and you were like a kitten, a little lump ......"

Lin Mei's cheeks couldn't help but turn red when she heard this, and she said a little shyly, "Madam, I'm ...... My mother rarely told me about her past. ”

The noble lady's face suddenly became heavy, and she gritted her teeth and said, "If I had known that your mother would become what she is now, I would not have agreed to help her hide from Master Zhao and Mrs. Zhao every day to secretly meet your father!" I won't help her find the shelter in Linshan County, and let her take you to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests for more than ten years! It's good now...... Hou, a group of male babies in your father's house, even if your mother goes back, I'm afraid of ......"

Lin Mei listened to this noble lady's deep hatred for her father, and suddenly had a good impression of her, inexplicably kind; She walked over to the lady and said, "Madam, I don't know what you call it?" ”

Only then did the noble lady realize her gaffe, stroked her forehead and smiled, "It's really old, but I let you see the joke...... Wan'er, my surname is Lin, and my husband's surname is Zhong, so you can call me Aunt Lin...... However, Wan'er, if you are free, why don't you go back to the house with me, and when the time comes, Shu Gongzi's side, I will ask someone to report a message. ”

Surname Lin? Lin Mei's heart moved slightly, and she heard this noble lady call herself Wan'er, and knew that this lady should also be from the capital; It's just, Shu Wangjin? How did she know about Shu Wangjin?!

Seeing Lin Mei looking at herself with a puzzled look and a slightly vigilant expression, the noble lady couldn't help but feel funny, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and covered her mouth with a smile, "As early as when you and Shu Gongzi 'eloped', your mother wrote a letter and asked people to send it to Los Angeles quickly, so that I can take good care of you...... Only then did I know that you had already met your father, and your mother followed him back to the capital; I didn't expect you to hate your father so much, you didn't even go back to the capital, and followed Shu Gongzi to Los Angeles......"

Lin Mei was a little embarrassed when she heard it, but she didn't expect her mother to value herself so much, and it was really a knife-mouthed tofu heart, it seemed that she would still treat her well in the future...... Just, Daddy? She doesn't admit that An Yuanhou is her father!

"Wan'er, my house is nearby, why don't you come and sit with me?" When the noble lady saw that Lin Mei stopped talking, she pinched her face and smiled intimately, not at all like the rusty appearance of having not met for more than ten years, she was very familiar; After that, she glanced at Qing Yan who was standing on the side again, and also invited, "This girl might as well be with her......"
