Section 607 Promise
Hongying was very curious, and didn't understand why the master suddenly changed his mind.
Yun Luo folded Mrs. Xu's letter and put it at the head of the bed.
She raised her head to meet Hongying's curious eyebrows, and asked without emotion: "Hongying, I remember that I once asked you to inquire about the person 'Li Jingzong', right?" β
The red-tasseled jet-black pupils changed color all of a sudden.
"Yes, young lady." But his head hung down.
"Haven't you heard yet?" Yun Luo took a deep breath and asked again.
Hongying was silent, her face turned pale, and she knelt on the ground all of a sudden: "Young lady, the slave is incompetent, the slave is ......" Her voice was full of embarrassment and shame.
"Did you tell me from Humble Mountain?" Yun Luo restrained the thoughts that were tumbling in his heart and asked in a cold voice.
After a moment, the red tassel nodded slowly in affirmation.
It was really ordered by Tang Shao.
Yun Luo couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
She knew that Tang Shao ordered Hongying like this, and he was also dedicated to her. After all, when she learned that Li Jingzong was Mrs. Fan's father and the former secretary of the military department, she had all the ideas in her heart.
Mrs. Fan...... The kind old lady who treated her like a grandson when she was in Suzhou.
The old lady who took good care of her after she entered Beijing.
The old lady who supported her at the banquet in the Tang Mansion.
β¦β¦
Countless images flashed in her mind, overlapping the face of Mrs. Fan, who was either kind, kind or dignified.
Among so many faces, which one is the real Mrs. Fan?
Thinking of what Mrs. Xu wrote in the letter, she couldn't help but shudderβ
Concubine De praised her in the Tang Mansion that day. The original intention was to invite Concubine De back to the palace to let the saint give her a marriage, and marry her to Fan Xiaoyu, the eldest grandson of the Fan family.
Mrs. Fan obviously knew that she was in love with Tang Shao, why did she promise her to her eldest grandson?
Is it really because I like her, to the point where I have to stay by my side and be my granddaughter-in-law?
No...... No......
She is the daughter of Li Jingzong, the secretary of the military department, and she has been raised by her father since she was a child.
It is rumored in the capital that this old lady is involved in all matters of the Fan family.
Yun Luo, who learned all this, couldn't help but be in a trance in his heart.
Those pictures of warmth and affection flew in front of her like a change of lights, and in the end there was only a fragment left.
The funny thing is that she has never connected "Li Jingzong" with the military department Shangshu.
I saw the faintly blue face of my master. Hongying knew that she had really done something wrong this time.
She suddenly fell to the ground and explained, "Young lady." Please don't blame the adults. The slave maid found out that Li Jingzong was Mrs. Fan's father, and she hesitated in her heart. Especially after entering Beijing, the young lady went to Fan's mansion several times to meet Mrs. Fan's joy, and the slave maid ......" Hongying said half of it. Didn't go any further.
Yun Luo knew what she meant.
Then. I have a lot of admiration for Mrs. Fan. If anyone rashly came to tell her how Mrs. Fan was, she would definitely not accept it.
But it's one thing to know, and it's another thing to feel uncomfortable.
She couldn't help but say to Hongying with a cold face: "What you said." Although it is excusable, it is trapped in my passivity. I'll know these things sooner or later, so what's the use of you hiding them? β
When Hongying heard this, she kowtowed in shame.
The sound of "dong dong dong" shook Yun Luo's ears, and he couldn't bear it in his heart, so he hurriedly stopped it.
"Humble Hill and you are both kind, they don't want me to be in a bad mood about these things, I can understand that. It's just that in the future, don't be self-righteous anymore, it's up to me to decide what happens. β
It was rare for Yun Luo to have such serious words about Hongying, and as soon as these words came out, Hongying's cheeks were already flushed.
Yun Luo also stopped at the point, and after beating it a little, he stopped dwelling on this matter.
Thinking of Mrs. Xu's letter, Yun Luo motioned to Hongying to change her clothes and prepare to go to Fangming Courtyard to explain the situation to Mrs. Tang.
Soon, the group arrived at Fangming Courtyard.
Yun Luo explained the intention, Mrs. Tang suddenly solemnized, took the letter handed over by Yun Luo and looked at it carefully.
"Since Mrs. Xu is asking for you, you can make your own decision." Mrs. Tang did not object, but took the letter and handed it back to Yun Luo.
Yun Luo replied softly: "My daughter-in-law is brave and decides to agree to Mrs. Xu." β
When Mrs. Tang heard this, she just nodded, and did not say anything, and Yun Luo retired with interest.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for the Jiang family's homecoming banquet.
Yun Luo dressed up, and then got into the carriage arranged by Mrs. Tang and rushed to the Jiang family's temporary residence in the capital.
It is a small house with three rooms and a courtyard, and although the layout is compact, it is scattered.
In the yard, the spring flowers have quietly bloomed, revealing a delicate yellow color to decorate the spring color.
Yun Luo got out of the carriage, and Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Xu were already guarding her at the door.
"Young lady, you're here, ouch, fluffy and shining, fluffy and shining......"
Mrs. Jiang enthusiastically came over to take her hand, and Yun Luo avoided her hand by pretending to go to smooth her hair.
Mrs. Jiang's face was slightly sluggish, and then she smiled brightly as if nothing had happened.
Mrs. Xu grabbed Yun Luo's hand from the side, put it in her ear and said softly, "Thank you." β
Yun Luo didn't say anything, and smiled with her.
Suspicion flashed in Mrs. Jiang's eyes, but she didn't ask any questions, but just led Yun Luo into the main hall.
At this time, Jiang Zhixia, the bride, had not yet set off from Zhu's mansion, but there were unexpectedly several ladies sitting in the room.
Yun Luo looked at it, several of them were brightly dressed and had gorgeous jewelry, and they were noble ladies at a glance.
And two of them she knows, one is Mrs. Su and the other is Mrs. Fan.
The other is about forty years old, with amiable eyebrows and slightly plump skin, and he smiles before he speaks, and he has a good face.
Yun Luo didn't know her.
Could it be...... The wife of the Peng family?
She guessed this in her heart, and Mrs. Jiang's introduction completely confirmed her conjecture-
"Second lady, this is the young lady of the Tang Mansion."
"Young lady, this is the second lady in the old mansion of Peng Ge."
Second Mrs. Peng is the same generation as her mother-in-law, Mrs. Tang, and it stands to reason that she is her elder, Yun Luo hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
And the second lady Peng was really polite and modest, seeing this, she immediately bent down to help Yunluo, and said: "Oh, young lady, don't be polite, don't be polite." As he spoke, he smiled at Mrs. Su next to him, "No wonder you said that the young lady of the Tang family is so beautiful and wise, how to be pure and filial, I am really curious, but now I have seen a real person, it's really good......"
Holding Yun Luo's hand and laughing, Wei Feng's face couldn't be dissolved.
Yun Luo looked embarrassed, and modestly said "Don't dare". (To be continued......)
