Chapter 180: Succession

The so-called can't be prevented, Mrs. An prevented Meng's backtracking, but she couldn't prevent someone from obstructing it.

An Ruoxian knocked on the side, and heard from Meng's mouth about the old lady's words and deeds that day, and knew that the old lady intended to pass An Ruolan to the other four rooms, and her mind turned again.

She couldn't let An Ruolan continue to stay in the Wenxin Marquis Mansion and continue to stay under the old lady's wing, otherwise the qiΔ“ she carefully arranged would be in vain.

With a slight turn of thought, she had an idea.

Because they both live in Yirong Yuan, and they are both in the wing room of the East Courtyard, An Ruojin and An Ruolan like to stick together when they have nothing to do on weekdays, after the rumors spread, the two are not out of focus, Jiao is not away from Meng, except for a few days to go to Puji Temple, the two eat, sleep, study, and play in one place, but they are getting closer and closer.

In the afternoon of this day, the sun was just right, and An Ruojin originally planned to take a nap with An Ruolan, but before going to bed, Murong suddenly sent someone to ask her to go back to Suotong Garden, saying that there was something important to discuss.

An Ruojin was clear-minded, vaguely guessed what was going on, and didn't dare to slack off, she confessed to An Ruolan, and immediately led Qiaolu to Suotong Garden.

An Ruoxian was waiting on the way to Suotong Garden.

She had already sent someone to pay attention to Suo Tongyuan's movements, and she sent someone from the Murong clan to find An Ruojin, so she immediately rushed over.

In order to stop An Ruojin and say a few words.

She is convinced that no one wants to share their parents with others.

At the fork in the road to Suotong Garden, An Ruojin saw An Ruoxian who was waiting for her from a distance, frowned without a trace, and she turned her head to prepare for a detour.

It's not that she's afraid of An Ruoxian, but she doesn't want to and disdain to have any contact with An Ruoxian.

"Sister Jin!" An Ruoxian stopped her before she left.

As a last resort, An Ruojin had no choice but to stop. turned around to face An Ruoxian, who came with a happy face.

"Suotong Garden and Xinyue Garden are one east and one west, separated by almost the entire Hou Mansion, I didn't expect to meet Sister Xian here. What a coincidence. An Ruojin greeted An Ruoxian who came close with a smile.

An Ruoxian's feet were stunned, and a touch of humiliation flashed in her eyes very quickly.

She pretended to be innocent and ignorant and smiled, suppressing the resentment and disdain in her heart, and said in a childish language: "It must be the fairy who let Xian'er meet Sister Jin!" ”

An Ruojin smiled faintly, noncommittal, and only said, "If it's okay." My sister took her leave first. ”

Bow slightly. is about to cross An Ruoxian and leave.

Seeing this, An Ruoxian panicked, and no longer pretended to be ignorant and naΓ―ve. She said loudly to An Ruojin's back: "Sister Jin, you must have heard the sentence that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers." ”

Hearing this, An Ruojin paused slightly, but did not turn back.

An Ruoxian immediately felt happy in her heart, raised her chin, and continued: "Sister Jin, have you ever thought about why Sister Lan is so close to you now?" It stands to reason. We are all cousins, living under the same roof, shouldn't we wait until now to have similar interests, how much of the sincerity on our lips is true? ”

"Sister Jin, do you remember the day of the plum blossom last year? My sister still remembers that her grandmother, Sister Kuajin, handled it properly that day. It is also good to go to the Buddha hall to copy the scriptures and punish kneeling. But are these really Sister Jin's ideas? Didn't someone deliberately let you get out of the way? ”

"And on my grandmother's birthday, who came up with the idea of that cat butterfly picture. Presumably Sister Jin knows better than anyone else, but my sister doesn't understand, there were so many honors and gentlemen present that day, such a great opportunity to become famous, why would anyone be willing to transfer the opportunity to others? Was that person really as indifferent as she appeared? Or did she have some other purpose? It's cold in high places, the higher you stand, the harder you fall, I think Sister Jin should understand these truths. ”

That she, even if she doesn't say it, the two of them know it.

An Ruojin turned around slowly and quietly, her eyes were vague and inexplicable, she approached step by step, her voice was cold and hoarse: "You mean, Sister Lan wants to use me and my brother as substitutes for the dead, shield the arrow, and then kill us?" ”

This is exactly what An Ruoxian meant in her words.

was very satisfied with her comprehension, and An Ruoxian bowed her head in praise.

Talking to smart people is to save time and effort, although she still doesn't look down on An Ruojin, but she has to admit that An Ruojin is the most brilliant of the girls of the Wenxin Houfu generation.

If An Ruojin can be taken for his own use, or if the two join forces, then ......

An Ruoxian's eyes turned slightly, and a small abacus was dialed in her heart, and just as she was planning hard, a slap suddenly fell from the sky and slammed into her face.

The crisp sound of "pop" directly stunned An Ruoxian, and before she could react, there were two more "pops", and in the next moment, her face hurt hotly.

"You-" Her eyes widened in disbelief, looking at An Ruojin, whose right hand had not yet been lowered.

An Ruojin glanced at her coldly, and slapped her twice, this time An Ruoxian was on guard, so naturally she would not stand stupidly and be beaten again, she took a few steps back in a wolfish manner, and narrowly avoided it.

Standing firm, she shouted angrily: "You dare to hit me?!" ”

This is the second time, the previous time was An Ruolan, and now it is An Ruojin, since she was a child, she has never been slapped by anyone, even the tricky and vicious stepsister before the crossing, she didn't dare to do anything to her, but when she got here, she was humiliated by two people she couldn't look down on one after another, how could she swallow her breath?

Immediately, An Ruoxian was about to pounce on it.

But someone was one step ahead of her, and before he could do anything, he restrained her.

There were several sisters fighting in the plum garden, and Murong was worried that An Ruojin would suffer, so he arranged a maid who knew some kung fu by her side, and right now, it was that maid who subdued An Ruoxian.

Even though An Ruoxian knows a little bit of self-defense, and her hands are ruthless and spicy, her body is still small, and she is completely inadequate in front of people who really understand martial arts.

Struggling and writhing, An Ruoxian shouted unwillingly: "Let go of me!" You cheap slave, you dare to do something to Miss Ben! Let go of me! ”

Seeing this, An Ruojin remembered that time when she was in the plum garden, An Ruoxian's ruthless appearance at the beginning, and she didn't feel a little chill in her heart.

After settling down, she said sharply: "At a young age, you know how to play right and wrong, provoke the relationship between the sisters in the house, and no matter how you teach, what will happen in the future?" Come. Send her to your grandmother and let her get out! ”

Mother Qiu stepped forward.

Glancing coldly at An Ruoxian, who was still struggling, An Ruojin turned to leave.

Mother Qiu winked. The maid who restrained An Ruoxian nodded in understanding, and immediately led the person in the direction of Yirong Yuan, and Mother Qiu herself quickly caught up with An Ruojin, who had not yet gone far.

Huang Ying stood aside tremblingly, not daring to come forward to plead at all, only when everyone left, she hurriedly ran to Xinyue Garden. Go and ask for Meng.

An Ruoxian was half-pushed and half-pulled and sent to Yirongyuan without mentioning it.

The Murong clan looked for An Ruojin to come over. Indeed, as An Ruojin expected, it was for the sake of succession.

"Mother, daughter has long said it. If Sister Lan can be the girl of the big house, how good it would be to be my own sister, my mind has never changed. An Ruojin held her mother's hand and said firmly.

Whether it was the trouble in the plum garden, the eldest brother being designed, or celebrating her grandmother's birthday, Sister Lan helped her a lot. She can't help but feel sisterhood and gratitude to her, and she has long regarded her as her own sister.

She is not as stupid as An Ruoxian thought, although she has not had much experience, and maybe her mind is not meticulous enough, but who really treats her. She can tell the difference.

She was angry. did it, firstly, because An Ruoxian looked down on her. The second is because An Ruoxian insulted the sisterhood between her and Lan'er.

Taking 10,000 steps back, why should she believe in a concubine with a bad heart, instead of a sister who gets along day and night?

Therefore, An Ruoxian is asking for hardship.

Murong realized her daughter's determination, but she still couldn't help but remind: "Even if one day, your father and mother are better to Sister Lan than you, you don't regret it, don't you care?" ”

She has already discussed with her husband, as long as Sister Jin does not object, they have no second words.

Hearing this, An Ruojin smiled, blinked her eyes and smiled playfully: "As long as you don't deduct my dowry, it's best for you all to go to bother Sister Lan, I'm happy!" ”

Amused by her eccentric appearance, Murong laughed and said, "You girl! ”

Then he sighed with relief: "Jin'er has grown up." ”

An Ruojin smiled quietly.

Besides, the second lady and the third lady, both of them are also willing to let An Ruolan pass under their own knees, but they are willing, which does not mean that the people around them are willing.

Second Master An is now smooth sailing in his official career, and he has finally come out of the way, he is becoming more and more cautious, unwilling to go on any business trips, and unwilling to let any factors that may affect him exist, who can guarantee that An Ruolan will not affect his fortune?

When the second lady mentioned the matter of succession to him, he tactfully but clearly objected, and he also asked the second lady to consider the old lady's reply.

Second Master An didn't want to leave a bad impression on his mother.

As for the third room, An Sanye didn't have as much thought as An Erye, he agreed, but the third lady's mother disagreed. Under the pressure exerted by her mother's family, the third lady also gave up the idea of adopting An Ruolan.

So in the end, only An Shiting and An Ruolan's uncle Meng Chengyan were willing to adopt her, and King Jin was excluded from the selection early.

The old marquis personally apologized to the king of Jin and thanked the king of Jin for his kindness, and the king of Jin only felt relieved, as he expected.

Back at the palace, King Jin first went to visit Meng Yuyan and told her about the rejection.

"Wen Xinhou has a lot of concerns, and it is reasonable that he will refuse." Meng Yuyan said with a faint expression, as if he had expected it.

Seeing this, King Jin's eyes quickly slid with a faint joy, he hugged her into his arms, and said guiltily: "It's my fault." ”

Meng Yuyan lay meekly and softly in his broad embrace, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.

How could she miss the relaxation in his eyes?

Three days later.

After repeated postponements, An Ruoxian's brother and sister's initiation ceremony was finally held, and the Xue family was officially promoted to an aunt, and An Ruoxian was not recorded in Meng's name after all.

On the same day, An Shiyan trembled, heavyly, and sadly crossed out An Ruolan's name marked under Meng's name, and An Shiting wrote the three characters An Ruolan under Murong's name.

Since then, An Ruolan has succeeded to the big house and has become the heir of the prince of Wenxin Hou and the second daughter of the big house, and her identity is even more noble. (To be continued) R655
