Chapter 184
Rong Qi was still hesitating, so Steward Chen came to report: "Master, a housekeeper came to the transfer envoy's mansion and said that he wanted to meet the master." ”
Master Rong hurriedly invited in, and seeing that Rong Qi was still standing aside, Master Rong frowned again: "It's not proper, you better go out." Rong Qi smiled and went out. The housekeeper's eyes were very angry, and when he saw Rong Qi, he gave his hand: "Why does the third master greet him personally?" ”
Rong Qi said a few polite words to him, the housekeeper entered the hall and wanted to kowtow to Master Rong, the housekeeper sent from the Lin Mansion was not so polite, Master Rong held the housekeeper tightly: "Hugh wants to be like this, if you have anything to say, please say it directly." ”
Although the housekeeper was held up and did not bow down, he still stood there and said with a smile: "The little one is not the housekeeper of the Lin family, the little one is from the capital, and at the behest of our wife, he specially came to talk to Master Rong." ”
Come from the capital, madam, and the name of the Tuolin family, that is, the housekeeper of Jingfu, Master Rong's mouth opened and closed in surprise: "Although we also have some friendship with Lord Lin, I don't know what can we do to Jingshangshu?" ”
The housekeeper of Jingfu smiled again before saying: "This matter really has a lot to do with your mansion, dare to ask Master Rong, in the past of your mansion, did there ever be an aunt who claimed to be surnamed Su?" "Aunt Sue? Master Rong didn't expect to ask her, although he felt that this matter was strange, he still replied: "Speaking of which, she is the biological mother of the little girl, and the little girl just turned one year old that day, she went due to illness. ”
"Master Rong, this Aunt Su, what is her age?" This question is even more strange, could it be that his Aunt Su has something to do with Jingfu? In this case, wouldn't his own family be close to Jingfu. No wonder this housekeeper didn't dare to sit down, Master Rong thought to himself, and replied in his mouth.
Listening to the age and appearance of Aunt Su at the beginning, the housekeeper of Jingfu pondered, and then bowed his hand to Master Rong: "Thank you." Someone will come to visit later. Then the butler took his leave.
"Third child, you said that the housekeeper of Jingfu came to ask, could it be ......" Since the matter has reached this time, Rong Qi also put together what Aunt Su said that day. This made Master Rong's mouth closed in surprise for a long time: "How can this be, her mother is actually Mrs. Jing's aunt and nephew?" In this way, our family can be close to Jingfu. ”
Although this family is far away, it is better than not having any relatives at all. Rong Qi responded to Fang Dao: "But this is just a prevarication, if you want to come to Jingfu to do things safely, you have to send someone to take a look." "In any case, this thing is eight | nine is not far from ten. Master Rong danced happily: "Hurry up and tell your daughter-in-law, let her make a few more new clothes for Yuzhi, and the jewelry must also be played well." I remember that when Aunt Su came, no, when the Qi family first came, she still had a few pieces of clothes, and they were also found, maybe they were given to her by Mrs. Jing in the past. ”
Rong Qi listened to Master Rong's instructions, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and didn't go to talk to Yanran, but patiently persuaded Master Rong there. Although Master Rong knew that this was Rong Qi's kindness, this matter was really extraordinary to the Rong family, how could he hold it.
Yanran had already gotten the news, and knew that it was the housekeeper of Jingfu, so after thinking about it, she came to find Rong Yuzhi. Rong Yuzhi was sitting in the room doing needlework, it was the end of October at the moment, the wind was very cold, Rong Yuzhi put on a fox fur on his shoulders, and the needlework in his hand did not stop.
Yan Ran saw Rong Yuzhi's side face at the door, and after a closer look, she and Mrs. Lin also looked a little similar, but there were as many aunts and nieces as there were like aunts, so Yan Ran didn't go to her heart, but greeted with a smile: "What is my sister-in-law embroidering?" ”
"I want to make a belly pocket for the child in the fourth sister-in-law's belly!" Rong Yuzhi looked up and saw Yanran standing there, hurriedly got up to greet her, and asked the maid to bring tea.
When Yanran sat down, she picked up this belly pocket, looked at it carefully, and smiled: "Hey, your needlework is much more delicate than before." ”
"The third sister-in-law laughed at me, how can I compare to the third sister-in-law's good needlework?" Rong Yuzhi handed the tea to Yan Ran, who took the tea and shook her head with a smile: "That's the original, at this time, I haven't used a needle and thread for almost a year, and my hands are very raw!" ”
"The third sister-in-law is busy, not as busy as us." Rong Yuzhi smiled and said a little gossip, and Yanran let the maid go out and looked at Rong Yuzhi carefully.
"Why does the third sister-in-law look at me like this?" Yan Ran didn't take her eyes back, but said to Rong Yuzhi: "Sister-in-law, do you miss your biological mother?" ”
That aunt with the surname Sue? Rong Yuzhi didn't know what kind of mood he was in for her, and when she thought about it occasionally, she would always be a little melancholy, or this was the natural blood relationship between mother and daughter.
"I'm fine without her. Or rather, better than what she was doing. Rong Yuzhi replied vaguely, and Yanran couldn't help but smile before saying: "Sister-in-law, there is something that your third brother and I knew about more than a month ago, but I didn't tell you for the sake of safety." ”
"Is it about my aunt?" Rong Yuzhi asked rhetorically, and Yanran nodded before saying, "It's indeed your aunt, but she may be long gone." ”
Gone? Rong Yuzhi had tears rolling down the corners of his eyes, and then said: "Originally, I thought that I could really see her again and call her a mother." However, she was still gone. Yanran patted her hand before she said what Aunt Su said that day.
Hearing that his biological mother's surname is Qi, and she was raised by Mrs. Jing's side since she was a child, Rong Yuzhi's eyebrows couldn't help frowning: "It turns out that I still have some relationship with Mrs. Lin." ”
"It's no wonder that Mrs. Lin likes you when she sees you. Sister-in-law, if you really admit your relatives, your life will be different in the future. "The niece and granddaughter of Shangshu Mansion are comparable to the young ladies of ordinary merchants. Rong Yuzhi couldn't help but smile faintly: "What's the difference?" ”
As soon as Yanran was about to speak, the maid came in and said, "Grandma, that Aunt Su from the Lin Mansion is here, and she said that she wants to meet Miss in the young lady's room this time." ”
The Jing family is naturally extremely safe in doing things, but I am afraid that in addition to looking at Rong Yuzhi, when necessary, I also want to see the red mole on Rong Yuzhi's shoulder. Yanran asked the maid to invite Aunt Su in, and then she held Rong Yuzhi's hand with her hand: "Don't worry, whether it is or not, you are the daughter of the Rong family." ”
Rong Yuzhi smiled faintly, is her mother really like that? If it is true, it is no wonder that she is unwilling to be a concubine and takes the opportunity to escape. But what about escaping, she didn't die early.
Aunt Su didn't come alone this time, and there was a forty-year-old mother-in-law who came with her. As soon as she entered the house, the woman looked at Rong Yuzhi's face, and the tears in her eyes fell down: "This, isn't this Miss Cousin, I remember that Miss Cousin likes to laugh like this." ”
"You see, it's a big deal." Aunt Su knew the answer, and deliberately said this, the mother-in-law wiped her tears with her sleeve: "Can't be wrong, Miss Cousin ...... that day" The mother-in-law paused when she said that: "Don't talk about Miss Cousin, even if it's a lady, she laughs like this." ”
The lady here is naturally Mrs. Jing and not Mrs. Lin. Yanran glanced at Rong Yuzhi with a smile, and then said to the mother-in-law: "Mom, do you remember those things that day?" This woman nodded again and again, how could she not remember?
Aunt Su fell to the ground with a stone, and Rong Yuzhi was like a grandmother instead of a mother, and then Aunt Su said: "I also heard that Miss Rong also has a red mole on her shoulder, please let the little ones take a look." ”
Red moles? The mother-in-law hurriedly put away her tears, looked at Rong Yuzhi and said, "Miss Rong also has a red mole on her shoulder?" I served the young lady in the bath that day, and the young lady often talked about this red mole. Rong Yuzhi didn't expect that there would be such a mark, and his face was red and about to drip blood.
Yan Ran had already instructed the maids to close the doors and windows, and asked Aunt Su and the mother-in-law to follow Rong Yuzhi behind the screen.
Rong Yuzhi is a boudoir woman, and she is still very shy when she unties her clothes in front of the living. Entering the screen, Rong Yuzhi just sat on the stool, bowed his head and twisted his clothes, and didn't move for a long time. Aunt Su was a little anxious, stepped forward and saluted, "Miss, the little ones are offended." ”
After speaking, Aunt Su reached out to take off Rong Yuzhi's coat, Rong Yuzhi became more and more shy, and only covered her face with her sleeves. When the mother-in-law saw Aunt Su doing it, she stepped forward and pulled off Rong Yuzhi's underwear, and saw that there was a red mole the size of a grain of rice on the snow-white shoulder, which was particularly conspicuous.
Aunt Su and her mother-in-law tested the truth, so they tidied up Rong Yuzhi's clothes, and the two saluted: "I offended Miss, I really shouldn't have offended." ”
After the mother-in-law finished speaking, she went to push Aunt Su: "What Miss, from now on, it will be Miss Cousin." "Miss Table? Rong Yuzhi frowned slightly, then lowered his head and smiled. Yan Ran heard it outside the screen, ordered the maid to remove the screen, and said congratulations to Rong Yuzhi with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations, in the future, there will be another family of relatives to come and go." ”
Relatives? The mother-in-law frowned, and sighed: "Miss Biao was so precious that day, Mrs. often said that she wanted to find a good family for Miss Biao, but who knew that it would ......."
Everyone's girlfriends were abducted and sold as concubines, which is a shame that can't be washed away. Aunt Su hurriedly slapped the mother-in-law: "This matter, let's just take a look, didn't the lady say in the letter that the lady wants the lady to verify the authenticity, and the lady is in charge?" ”
The woman nodded, but there was a lot of reluctance in her eyes when she looked at Rong Yuzhi, after all, it was Miss Qi's bloodline, how could she be left outside? Aunt Su looked at the mother-in-law's eyes and knew that Mrs. Lin's idea would come true, but she smiled lightly.
Before Aunt Su and her mother-in-law left, she told her not to say anything about this matter in advance. Yan Ran nodded yes, and when she sent them away, Yan Ran smiled at Rong Yuzhi and said, "Anyway, I see, they will definitely recognize their relatives." ”
"My mother is like that, but I'm just a ...... after all"
Rong Yuzhi was worried about how Yanran didn't know, and clenched her hand: "What are you?" Isn't it a good citizen to go out, and isn't it a lowly person? What is there to worry about? Rong Yuzhi smiled again when Yanran said, his mother came like this, I don't know, will that aunt treat him well?
