Chapter 221: Preparedness

Before Qiulan could retreat, Lu Qingrong couldn't wait to open the envelope.

Jiang Xuan's vigorous and agile handwriting was right in front of him, and Lu Qingrong couldn't help but be a little shaken.

Only then did she realize that it seemed that she had seen Jiang Xuan's words for the first time. The content of the letter was only a few sentences, and I thought it was a hurried march, and it was too late for children to grow up.

Lu Qingrong had been thinking about it for the past few days, and he didn't know where they were going at this time, but Jiang Xuan didn't mention it in the letter.

In fact, there is only one thing said in the whole article, that is, his handkerchief was lost before leaving, so Lu Qingrong remembered to help him embroider another one.

Lu Qingrong seemed to be able to see Jiang Xuan's smiling face and his soft words with a hint of trickery through the letter.

Of course, she knew that Jiang Xuan was not really afraid that she would forget to embroider the veil, but specifically told her about "losing the veil".

Could it be that Qiu Muyun came to the door to make trouble was known to him?

Lu Qingrong quickly denied this possibility, such a short period of time is not enough for this news to come back and forth.

I simply didn't think about why he said this, in short, being able to receive Jiang Xuan's letter made Lu Qingrong feel an indescribable pleasure.

As everyone knows, Jiang Xuan will suddenly send the letter back, completely because of Jiang Ling.

On that day, Jiang Ling "inadvertently" mentioned when chatting with Jiang Xuan: "That day, I went to the house for my sister to give a birthday gift to Mrs. Shizi, and on the way out, I saw a handkerchief not far from the door of the study, which seemed to be something on the body of the prince, and was about to pick it up, but it was picked up by a well-dressed girl, and I hurriedly avoided it." Ahem, I didn't mean to bump into the woman. If someone sues me, you can't believe it! ”

A large part of Jiang Ling's words are nonsense. But well-intentioned. Even he regretted it afterwards, why was he so nosy!

After Jiang Xuan heard this, he kept it in mind, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, for fear that during his absence, Lu Qingrong would be bullied by people with ulterior motives, and it didn't take a while. So he wrote a letter to his family and sent it back.

This is the letter in Lu Qingrong's hand that made her smile at this moment.

Carefully putting away the letter, Lu Qingrong took out the washed handkerchief from his sleeve again.

Put it in front of your nose and smell it lightly, you can only smell a faint smell of soaphorn; Unfold in the sun. can only see his jerky and lame female red.

But just like this, it made Lu Qingrong's heart feel down-to-earth and warm for no reason......

At this moment, there was another person, also thinking about the veil. While thinking about Jiang Xuan.

It was He Qingwan in the Feng Courtyard.

It's early this morning. first accompanied Qiu Jinting to Qinyi Courtyard to ask for peace, and then immediately followed her back to Fengyuan when he heard about the evil disease. I just went to the attic at the back to change my clothes, and when I came back, I heard Jiang Ke teaching Qiu Jinting in the house, and waited at the door for a while, until she saw Jiang Xuan whisking away angrily, and she didn't enter the house.

Qiu Jinting's complaints were endless, and he said over and over again in a few words, "Why don't I respect my sister-in-law?" Am I not polite enough to the Lu clan? "Who made them stretch their hands so long?" Even Jing Chuntang's sick aunt had contact with the people in their Yu Courtyard! "What's wrong with me avoiding her, who can guarantee that she hasn't been sick? I'm a double now. There is no room for half a pip cuò! ”

Every time he said the last sentence, Qiu Jinting's momentum would unconsciously weaken.

He Qingwan didn't bother to pay attention.

She just made a concerned appearance and persuaded Qiu Jinting not to be angry, but her heart was made more and more irritated by these complaints.

Last time my mother came to the Hou Mansion, she first went to Qinyi Courtyard to find Mrs. Wu, and then went to Yu Courtyard to see Lu Qingrong, and when she came to see herself, the look on her face was obviously not as confident as when she was in He Mansion before, and even a little panicked. asked her what was wrong, and refused to say, just let herself wait for good news.

But from her mother's instructions to herself, He Qingwan still felt a little uneasy.

My mother prepared herself for the fact that there might be some rumors that would damage her reputation, but that was a stopgap measure, and there was no need to worry about it.

As soon as these words came out, it was impossible for He Qingwan's heart not to beat the drum.

However, she could only choose to believe Qiu Muyun and try to calm down, hoping for good news.

On the second day, instead of any good news, there was no good news in the entire Hou Mansion, but there was news of his death.

Aunt Wei and Aunt Chen, who were sent outside the city yesterday, didn't survive a night, and before dawn, there were no people!

Hearing this, Mrs. Wu was very surprised, and immediately called Lu Qingrong to inquire.

"The two aunts are gone?" Mrs. Wu's tone was very strange, and there seemed to be a bit of expectation in her surprise.

"It's all gone." Lu Qingrong had a moderate amount of sadness on his face, and at the same time he couldn't hide his self-blame, "I also asked about this carefully just now, saying that the two aunts have been having a high fever and not going away, and just after the ugly time, Aunt Chen will not be able to do it first." Xu was frightened by the news of Aunt Chen's death, and Aunt Wei, who had already improved slightly, followed her within half an hour......

Mrs. Wu let out a long sigh, looking at Lu Qingrong's eyes, as if she felt a little relieved.

"How did you deal with the aftermath?" Mrs. Wu asked.

"Madame, don't blame." Lu Qingrong confessed first, and then said with a little hesitation: "Before sending them outside the city, I listened to the doctor's advice, if someone dies of illness, they need to bury them as much as possible and burn their clothes to use ......."

Mrs. Wu bowed slightly, and didn't mention it again, but asked again: "How are the maids in Yuyuan?" ”

"I haven't seen any cases yet." Lu Qingrong explained: "For the sake of safety, I thought about letting them stay outside the city for a while, and then take them back to the house when they are completely fine." In this way, it also saves the people in the house from panicking. ”

"Just do as you say!" Mrs. Wu waved her hand and asked Lu Qingrong to go back with some impatience.

Lu Qingrong still did not change his remorse and left.

By the time she returned to the Yuyuan, she had already become the same as ever.

"Did you give those medicinal herbs to Monan?" Lu Qingrong asked Luzhu.

"I took a few yesterday." Lu Zhu replied in detail: "According to what you instructed, this matter is not in a hurry, just let him send someone to ask one place a day, the important thing is not to attract the attention of others." There is already a reply today......"

"I'm not in a hurry when I said it!" Lu Qingrong said with a smile: "Besides, if it's just one medicinal material, I can't see anything!" ”

"It's not about medicinal herbs." Luzhu began to hesitate a little, "It's the little guy who was sent out today who came back from the pharmacy and heard some other rumors......

"What rumors?"

"There have been rumors in the market these days, saying that the daughter of Lord Nakaga's family in the Ministry of Rites has not yet talked about marriage, and she has received something from a man, but she doesn't want to be abandoned by others, which is very pitiful......" Luzhu said that he was a little embarrassed.

When he heard the word "concubine", Lu Qingrong had already snorted coldly in his heart, and when he heard the back, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

Beginning and abandoning?

It's a shame they can say it!

"That's all?" Lu Qingrong lowered his voice as much as possible.

"And ...... Now people are speculating about who this person who has been abandoned from the beginning to the end is who. Moreover, Miss He now lives in the Hou Mansion, this matter is not a secret, but those people outside can't tell the ...... of the Yuyuan and Fengyuan," Lu Zhu said Finally, his voice was weak and inaudible.

Although Lu Zhu deliberately said it vaguely, Lu Qingrong was not difficult to understand.

This is clearly to point the finger at Jiang Xuan.

At this moment, she didn't want to think about who spread these filthy rumors, whether it was Qiu Muyun or Qinyiyuan, it didn't matter.

After all, He Qingwan did this thing by himself.

Originally, Lu Qingrong also planned that if they didn't do anything else, he wouldn't bother with them......

"You go to the front to find Mo Nan, just say that it is my order, let him do his best to invite Master Sun to come and discuss something." Lu Qingrong regained his calmness.

Green Bamboo took the order and left.

Not long after lunch, Sun Yiming came to Yuyuan.

Lu Qingrong asked him to wait in the flower hall in front for a while, changed out of his homely Hangzhou silk jacket, and wore a water-blue Hangzhou silk placket, an azure skirt, and his hair was not combed, only wearing a Hetian jade magnolia hairpin, and hurriedly came to the flower hall.

"Mrs. Shizi is so anxious to find me, but what's the matter?" Sun Yiming quickly sat back in the circle chair, picked up the teacup, and spoke in a leisurely tone.

"The prince came with a letter yesterday." Lu Qingrong said first.

"Oh?" Sun Yiming smiled, "It's really different from what it used to be!" The Marquis of Jingyuan also had such a time of childlike affection! ”

Lu Qingrong didn't say why he was invited to come, and Sun Yiming was not in a hurry to ask.

"Just to say goodbye." Lu Qingrong was a little embarrassed, "I mentioned that he lost his veil before." ”

"Hmm." Sun Yiming pretended to respond strictly, knowing in his heart that this was about to get to the point.

"I'm not going to go around in circles with you anymore." Lu Qingrong simply said: "Since this handkerchief was indeed picked up by them, then now the one in their hands probably needs to have an owner!" ”

"Haha! You've finally figured it out. Sun Yiming laughed heartily, "That's how it should be!" You don't need to be merciful to them. Since they don't even care about their own reputation, whatever the result is, they are all to blame, and they can't blame others. ”

"What are you...... What rumors have you heard? ”

"Humph!" Sun Yiming sneered, "Not only did I hear the rumors, but I also know where this came from." ”

"From where?" Lu Qingrong couldn't help but ask.

"It's not the Hou Mansion."

Sun Yiming only said this, and Lu Qingrong understood.

"As for the owner of this veil......

Lu Qingrong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Sun Yiming: "What Mrs. Shizi meant, I already understand, it's enough to talk about it here, and you don't need to worry about the rest of the things." Just remember that no matter what happens in the future, it has nothing to do with the Hou Mansion, it is all asked for by themselves. (To be continued......)
