Chapter 283: Hindsight
Ah Lian watched the two of them talk to herself politely, but she didn't understand much, the Xiao family's long room? Three-room? What is that? Does the Xiao family still have such a complicated statement?
Ah Lian came out on behalf of Su Nian, and naturally she couldn't be rude, and after returning the salute dignifiedly, she said softly, "Two sons, the maid is a maid in the Xiao Mansion, just came out to buy things, if the two sons have something to do with my wife, please go to the house to submit the name post." β
One of the men in a soapy blue carved silk brocade robe smiled slightly, "You are the girl in front of Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao likes the snacks in Wangjiang Tower, so you will come to Wangjiang Tower every few days, you can be responsible for Mrs. Xiao's food, how can it be a girl who is only responsible for purchasing?" We just want to ask you to introduce you to it. β
It turned out that they were the ones who took the hibiscus almond cake, Ah Lian was a little wary in her heart, they knew it in detail, and they even knew it in good detail, and they even counted the time when they came to Wangjiang Tower, and they could still stay here to stop her carriage......
"This son, the servant is not as powerful as you said, but just buy some snacks, the son is too uplifting the servant, not to mention, the requirements of the two sons are quite inappropriate, if you really want to see the lady, please submit the name post to justify."
Ah Lian is very hard, she doesn't want to embarrass Su Nian, although the hand hanging in her sleeve is held tightly, but she is trying to keep calm on her face, Miss can say in those stories, losing people don't lose the battle, at least people can't see that she is afraid.
The man in the dark robe on the side frowned impatiently, "Second brother, what are you doing with her little girl?" Hold her directly. If I go to Xiao Mansion again, I still don't believe that woman still doesn't see us! β
Ah Lian was shocked. Sure enough, the person who came was not good, and he wanted to catch her to blackmail Miss? Is there any royal law in broad daylight? During this time, Ah Lian was strongly influenced by the so-called "story". I have been educated a lot, so I immediately asked aloud:
"Who the hell are you! What do the people pretending to be my Xiao family want to do? I can tell you, my lord is now leading an army into battle, how can you pretend to be at will! If you don't get out of the way, I'm going to report to the police! β
Ah Lian's voice was crisp and clear, she was still young, and she had a little childlike voice, they were originally only in a corner of the street, and there was not much movement. But as soon as these words were said, especially when Lord Xiao was mentioned in the words, half the people on the street immediately turned their eyes over.
Although the carriage of the Xiao Mansion is very low-key, the brand of the Xiao Mansion is quite recognizable, and I saw Ah Lian standing on the carriage, looking condescendingly at the two people in front of the carriage, with a sharp and righteous appearance between her eyebrows, and suddenly many people looked at the two people with a little thief eyebrows.
Who is Lord Xiao? That's the great hero of the Li Dynasty! Now he is leading his troops again. The prestige in the capital is very high, and there are still people who stop in front of the carriage of the Xiao Mansion without long eyes, which is really boring.
Seeing that many people were secretly moving in their direction, the two men sensed that something was wrong. The man in the dark robe glared at Ah Lian viciously, and it was full of gloom, before quickly leaving with the other person.
"Miss Alian. You can actually let me show that. Ah Lian was a little prostrate, but she heard a faint green voice on the side.
Greenwill put the knife back. A little melancholy, he and his sister Luhe have been with Mrs. Xiao for some time. But it didn't come in handy once...... by the way, Green Lotus was quite busy, and he followed his wife for a while with an idea, and he was very busy.
Green Lotus is good at whipping, he is good at using flying knives, before coming to Xiao Mansion, Lord Xiao solemnly hoped that they could protect Su Nian, they all had the consciousness of risking their lives, but they didn't have a chance to really need them......
Ah Lian still has the strength to feel green and melancholy, slowly climbed into the carriage, and collapsed directly on the mat, so terrible, so terrible, she was able to say that kind of thing to such a person, Ah Lian's little heart was beating violently at the moment, as if it was about to jump out of her mouth.
She pursed her mouth and covered her mouth with her hand, but strangely, in addition to fear, there was also a trace of unknown emotions spreading out of her heart.
She can also be very brave to defend Miss, she can also stand up in front of Miss, this is a great sense of achievement, a small emotion spread instantly, making her heart beat more violently, just now she should be able to speak more forcefully, Ah Lian leaned on the carriage, a little annoyed, she always thought of how to speak after the most appropriate......
Back in the house, Ah Lian didn't forget to bring the hibiscus almond cake to Su Nian first, Su Nian was listening to Thorn Ping playing the guqin, and the music was something she had never heard before.
Su Nian often hums some strange tunes, but he doesn't know what the score is, Thorn Ping will roughly reduce these tunes to the score and play it, Su Nian is very amazed, and he began to rack his brains to think about it, I really can't remember, so I just let Thorn Ping make it up directly.
Thorn Ping is also used to it, just make it up, she used to be a housekeeper lady, not to mention proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also take all kinds of shots, especially the guqin, the attainments are quite profound, and every time she makes it up, she is quite satisfied.
After Thorn Ping finished playing, Ah Lian came up and told Su Nian about today's events.
Su Nian ate several pieces of hibiscus almond cake in a row, and when she wanted to eat it again, Yueniang went up and snatched the plate down: "Madam, it's time to eat in a while, be careful if you eat too much and have no appetite." β
Su Nian is not good at this, he has no control ability, he eats desperately when he likes to eat, and then it's really time to eat, he can't eat anything, and he will be hungry after the meal......
Yueniang was also reasonable, Su Nian had to hold the cup and drink a sip of water: "They say they are from the Xiao family?" The Xiao family's big house? β
"Well, that's what I heard them say, miss, who are they? Why don't you come to Xiao Mansion to deliver the post, and you have to stop my carriage halfway? Ah Lian was very puzzled by this, and all the normal actions were made abnormal.
Su Nian glanced at Yueniang, and Yueniang also happened to look back, and only after putting away the dim sum plate did she say with a straight face: "Madam, what Yueniang told you last time was them." β
Su Nian knew about this early in the morning, those people wanted to see Su Nian, of course they handed over the post early in the morning, but they all stopped Yueniang, Yueniang also told Su Nian, Xiao Ge's father Xiao Ran was expelled from the house by the Xiao family, and nothing was given to him, Xiao Ran went all the way to the capital, and almost didn't survive several times.
The Xiao family is not a family without a background, but Xiao Ran has never had any contact with the Xiao family, not at all, others will naturally not investigate anything, when Xiao Ran has not passed away, the Xiao family once sent some letters, at that time it was the time when Xiao Ran was trusted and respected by the emperor, and I don't know how Xiao Ran replied, in short, there was no follow-up after that, it seems that Xiao Ran and the Xiao family no longer correspond.
"Yueniang doesn't know what these people from the Xiao family mean by looking for them now, but what the master means is that they no longer have anything to do with the Xiao family, and Yueniang thinks it's better for Mrs. not to see them."
Although Yueniang was in charge of the affairs of Xiao Mansion, she did not make a decision directly, but came to ask Su Nian for advice and gave her advice.
Su Nian also heard Xiao Ge say something that his father would be expelled from the Xiao family, and it had something to do with his father's father, although he didn't know it in detail, but he didn't want to be involved with the Xiao family anymore.
So Su Nian let Yueniang watch it, Yueniang turned a blind eye to the famous posts that she wanted to see, those people still wanted to break in, but did Xiao Mansion break in casually? If that's the case, what kind of face do they have to meet Lord Xiao?
No matter what, I can't see Su Nian, the people of the Xiao family will come up with such a method, I wanted to catch the girl who had to be used in my hands, Shen Su Nian couldn't be gone, I didn't expect that people didn't catch it, they were almost caught by onlookers.
Su Nian touched his chin, how did they know that Ah Lian's dim sum was bought for themselves? But if this kind of thing happens, can she report it to the official?
"Madam, don't do it first, firstly, they didn't succeed, secondly, once they reported to the official, it would be as they wanted, and when the time came, it was a misunderstanding, and by the way, they were publicized as people from the Xiao family, and those people were cheapened in vain." Yueniang felt that it was inappropriate.
But Su Nian felt that it didn't matter, she thought that the identities of these people would be revealed sooner or later, and they came to the capital for this, wasn't that?
"Okay then, leave it at that, let's see what else they can come up with." Su Nian was lazily looking forward to it, she had been bored for a long time, and she didn't think that these people from the Xiao family would threaten her anything, they had already expelled people from the house, and if she came to the door again at this time, it would be impossible for her to be so thick-skinned......
The concierge was still unwell, and it was inconvenient to see guests, and Su Nian also tried to let them go out less often, but he didn't expect that for people who wanted to see themselves, there were far more ways than these two.
The steward in the front yard came to inform Yueniang that someone from the government had come, saying that someone had caught a thief and found two objects from his body, but they were from the Xiao family, so he came to make such a trip and asked them to recognize him.
Yueniang went in confusion, but came back with a black face, standing next to Su Nian and not knowing how to speak.
Su Nian is painting and playing, painting a fox, half-curled, the furry body wrapped into a pom-pom, naΓ―ve and cute, but the eyes are finely white, and the eyes are a little deep.
"Madam, it's their ......" Yueniang frowned, the government said that the two items were very valuable, and they needed to be confirmed by Mrs. Xiao in person, Yueniang saw the people standing next to the official, and guessed their identities.
Su Nian put down the pen and looked left and right, "Do you want to add a few more tails to it?" β
The corners of Thorn Ping's eyes began to jump again, and seeing that Su Nian began to mutter "nine-tailed fox" or something again, she hurriedly stepped forward and took away the painting in her hand, which was a waste of money.
Su Nian rubbed his empty hands regretfully, and then looked at Yueniang: "Aunt Yue, have you seen those two things?" Are they going to give us a gift first? (To be continued......)
