And so it was.

An Ruolan had these four words in his heart.

Although I expected it for a long time, when I heard it with my own ears, it was inevitable that my heart would be mixed with taste.

Looking deeply at the mother with a beautiful face and gentle temperament, she exhaled silently in the bottom of her heart, and she smiled casually: "I don't know, my daughter only met once when Master Chanzhen first arrived at Puji Temple, and when I saw him again, it was the time to listen to Buddhism this morning." ”

"Really?" Meng Shi didn't believe it, and asked with a little eagerness and dissatisfaction: "Lan'er doesn't want to talk to her mother in detail?" Are you blaming me? ”

As he spoke, his eyes were red again, and he wanted to cry.

An Ruolan was quite helpless, and was thinking about how to explain, when Xia He's joyful voice came from outside the door: "The fifth master is back." ”

It turned out that An Shiyan had returned from the government.

Meng Shi immediately blinked, forced out a few tears, got up and greeted him eagerly.

An Ruolan looked at her happy and eager look, only to feel that this difference was too obvious.

Does this mean that she is not welcomed?

Pouting, An Ruolan didn't take it to heart at all.

An Shiyan entered the door in a hurry, and when he opened his mouth, he called eagerly: "Lan'er! Lan'er! Come out and let my father see! ”

Hearing this call, Meng Shi's footsteps paused slightly, and Bei Ya subconsciously bit his lower lip.

An Ruolan, who caught up from behind, saw her indignant look and reminded quietly: "Mother, father is waiting for you." ”

Hearing this, Meng Shi immediately retracted his expression, raised his chin and said, "Don't need you to say more, I heard it." ”

Flick your sleeves. With a smile on her face, she greeted An Shiyan, who came through the door.

An Ruolan touched the tip of her nose stupidly, she didn't hear her father call her mother.

Muttering a few words in her stomach, she kicked and stomped along.

"Fifth Master." Meng received An Shiyan. He called softly in a low voice, his expression full of tenderness.

An Shiyan smiled warmly at her and shook her hand.

Meng's heart fluttered for a while, and her eyes were full of her husband's elegant and handsome face.

Just before she came back to her senses, An Shiyan passed her and walked in front of An Ruolan.

"Lan'er." An Shiyan gently stroked the top of An Ruolan's head, with closeness and apprehension in his tone.

An Ruolan twisted uncomfortably. Avoiding the hand on his head, Fu said, "I've seen my father." Father is well-being. ”

Seeing this, An Shiyan's face flashed with a touch of unnaturalness, but he withdrew his hand.

I took a closer look at my daughter, who I hadn't seen for a few days, and saw that her eyebrows were peaceful. With an indifferent expression, he smiled with relief: "After a few days out of the house, I looked much calmer, and I wanted to gain a lot." ”

An Ruolan smiled calmly and said: "The temple is quiet and peaceful, and my daughter has benefited a lot from listening to a few lectures on Buddhism." ”

"Very good, very good." An Shiyan shook his head repeatedly.

Meng suddenly came back to his senses. Looking back in disbelief, looking at An Shiyan's gentle side face, she couldn't believe that her husband would abandon her for her daughter!

A sudden flash of resentment flashed in his eyes. She immediately squeezed forward, blocking between her husband and daughter, and smiled gently: "The fifth master has just come back, he must be tired, sit down and rest." ”

An Ruolan knew that she felt that she was in the way, so she took advantage of the situation. said: "The daughter will not disturb her father to rest, and the grandmother will let the daughter return early." ”

Let's talk about it. and he will depart.

"Wait a minute." An Shiyan stopped her, and smiled softly in her puzzled eyes: "For my father, I want to go to your grandmother to say goodbye, you wait for a while, and after your father changes clothes, I will go with you." ”

So that's what happened.

An Ruolan secretly glanced at Meng Shi, whose face changed suddenly because of these words, and stiffened his head: "Listen to my father." ”

An Shiyan was very happy, and immediately called Meng Shi into the inner room to change clothes.

After changing into homely clothes, An Shiyan beckoned An Ruolan to leave, but Meng Shi stopped him and said, "It's not too early, I should also go and say goodbye to my mother." ”

The implication is that she wants to go together.

An Ruolan didn't have an opinion, but An Shiyan said: "When I came over just now, I met Mama Wu in my mother's room, and she said that she came to pass the word for her mother, saying that her mother had just returned and was still very tired, so you don't have to go to ask for peace today." ”

Meng's eyebrows jumped, and he said in a low voice: "Why didn't I see Mama Wu coming......

"I told her to go back." An Shiyan frowned slightly and explained.

Several old grandmothers around the old lady took him when he was a child, and he respected him very much.

"I see." Meng Shi laughed dryly, pulled the handkerchief, paused, but said: "Even so, the fifth master should not disturb his mother." ”

As the words fell, the wrinkles between An Shiyan's eyebrows deepened instantly, and the corners of his lips tightened unhappily.

Seeing this, Meng couldn't help but be slightly stunned, knowing that he was displeased.

Tightened her veil crampedly, she didn't know how to prevaricate, only resentful, looking at him pitifully.

Seeing her like this, An Shiyan couldn't bear it in the end, so he had to ease his expression and explain: "I want to discuss things with my mother." ”

"This, in this way, the fifth master should go early and come back early, I will wait for you to come back and eat together." With the steps under the steps, Meng Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled softly and softly.

An Shiyan was very useful, shook her hand, and said a tender word, and then left with An Ruolan.

During the conversation between the husband and wife, An Ruolan maintained a state of looking at the nose and nose and the heart, trying to minimize the sense of being in zài, and only treating it as if she did not have zài.

On the way to Yirong Garden, An Shiyan also asked about the experience of the group in Puji Temple in the past few days, and An Ruolan only picked up some trivial things that were not important in daily life, and did not mention much.

It's not that she doesn't want to say it, it's that she really doesn't know much.

The father and daughter entered the Yirong Garden together, and after the report, they waited for the old lady to come over in Songhe Hall.

The old lady was reciting scriptures in the Buddhist hall, and when she heard that An Shiyan's father and daughter were coming, she immediately cleaned her hands and rushed back to the main hall.

After listening to Master Chanzhen's explanation of the Buddhist scriptures, the old lady became more and more convinced of Buddhism.

Entering the Songhe Hall from the corner door at the back of the house, the old lady beckoned An Ruolan and said, "Your sisters and sisters are all playing in the garden, you can go quickly, and I will call you when the meal will be served." ”

"Huh!" An Ruolan responded crisply. Xiang An Shiyan was short, and went out happily.

As soon as An Ruolan left, the smile on the old lady's face faded. She sat down on the throne and beckoned An Shiyan: "Sit down." ”

An Shiyan saw her mother's dissatisfaction, but she didn't dare to complain, so she only sat down respectfully on the left chair.

The old lady is not a person who beats around the bush, and after An Shiyan greets her, she said bluntly: "Can your father tell you about Sister Lan?" ”

An Shiyan is also used to her mother's straightforwardness, and she can cope with it at the moment. Honestly replied: "Father didn't mention it. ”

But in my heart, I was worried, and I knew that it was about rumors.

The old lady heard his answer. There was a sense of helplessness and bitterness in her heart, and even in front of her son, the old marquis asked her to be a villain.

Sighing slightly, she closed her eyes wearily. A moment later, when she opened her eyes again, she was the dignified and calm, shrewd and capable old lady again.

She said: "I won't hide it from you, this time I went to Puji Temple with your mother-in-law to ask Master Chanzhen to point out the famous way, Sister Lan and her ......."

After a pause, he said heavily: "I'm afraid that I can't raise it under the knees of you and Meng anymore, according to the words of the goddess." Only Sister Jilan can calm down the rumors. ”

An Shiyan's hand trembling when he went to serve the teacup almost knocked over the teacup.

"Mother, mother......" he said in a panic and eagerly, "is there no other way?" ”

He didn't want to lose Lan'er.

The old lady did not shake her head. He didn't nod, just looked at him deeply, and after a long time, he said, "Old Five, you tell your mother the truth, are you afraid of rumors?" Do you think Sister Lan will hurt you and Brother Yan? ”

"My son doesn't believe it!" An Shiyan replied without hesitation.

The old lady nodded. Her face looked much better, and she narrowed her eyes slightly. He said in a deep voice: "If you and the Meng family are unwilling to succeed, and this heart is unswerving, the mother will show her old face and help you keep Lan'er!" ”

"Mother!"

Hearing this, An Shiyan was moved, but he didn't dare to respond, he really didn't want to go out of Jilan'er, and his heart was unswerving, but Yuxia ......

He still remembered that Yu Xia had mentioned that he wanted to send Lan'er away.

He was not sure to convince his wife.

Seeing that he hesitated, the old lady was quite annoyed in her heart, and said coldly: "Since you don't dare to respond, your mother won't force you." ”

She knew the reason for this, and she was disappointed and embarrassed to raise a son who was so weak in terms of feelings.

"Mother......" An Shiyan hung her head in shame.

The old lady didn't listen to his nonsense anymore, and said sternly: "Now I have to choose a good home for Lan'er, I will discuss with your brothers and sisters-in-law to see if they are interested in adopting Lan'er, if not, your uncle and brother are also willing to take Lan'er over." ”

These words made An Shiyan feel embarrassed, he lowered his head and muttered like a dying struggle: "Lan'er is my daughter......"

The old lady didn't look at him at all, and waved his hand to let him go.

Even if he was unwilling, An Shiyan had to get up and salute and say goodbye.

Looking at his back as he walked out in despair, the old lady couldn't bear to sigh and raised her voice: "If you want to stay Lan'er, think clearly and then return to me." ”

She was willing to give him another chance.

An Shiyan looked back suddenly, with a flame of hope burning in his eyes, but in the next second, the flame was getting weaker and weaker.

In the end, he gave up his hand and said, "My son will think carefully." ”

Then he turned and left.

The old lady sighed lowly.

Jin Wang's Mansion, front yard study.

King Jin listened to the news reported by the secret agent, Jun frowned, and asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”

"It was reported by the secret guard who was recently sent to guard the Wenxin Marquis's Mansion, from the mouth of Mrs. An, presumably there will be no fake." The spy dressed in darkness replied truthfully.

King Jin bowed slightly, waved his hand and said, "You stand down." ”

The spy responded, bowed and disappeared in an instant.

Sitting behind the bookcase of the pineapple flower, King Jin stroked the white jade paperweight in his hand, frowned and pondered, and after a while, he called outward: "Jialu." ”

The heavy door carved in mahogany was slowly pushed open, and a middle-aged man over fifty years old bowed in, bowed his head and said, "What does the prince command?" ”

With a white chin and a low and thin voice, this man named Jialu was a close eunuch brought out of the palace by the King of Jin.

"You go to the Wenxin Hou Mansion to report to Mrs. An, saying that this king intends to adopt the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion." King Jin said cautiously.

Jialu was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes flashed with joy, and he said in a loud voice: "The slave and maid are going, this is going!" ”

Thinking of something again, he asked: "Lord, do you want to tell the princess about this matter?" ”

King Jin was silent for a moment and said, "Wait for me to go and sue her in person." ”

Garlu responded happily and hurriedly withdrew.

Looking at the happy back of his father-in-law, who had taken care of him since childhood, King Jin sighed heavily and helplessly. (To be continued) R466
