Chapter 368: Hai Qingtan is strange
Wei Yanran didn't know about Qin Yenan's arrangements, so she dressed up early the next morning, and then went to the Hai family with Qingzhi.
This time her arrival was much better than the last time, and the housekeeper in the backyard personally led her to Hai Qingtan's yard.
Walking on the cobblestone path, Wei Yanran turned her head sideways and asked, "I wonder if Madame is free?" I would like to visit her in a moment. ”
Mrs. Hai has not heard from Hai Jingtan since she let her go, and besides, Wei Yanran came to the mansion to see Hai Qingtan this time, and she should also visit the elders in the mansion, so it is not too much to make this request.
The eyes of the housekeeper standing behind Wei Yanran's side suddenly flashed, and he had a smile on his face, but the words he said scared Wei Yanran back, "Madame happened to be seriously ill in the past two days, and now she is sick in bed, if the princess wants to see her, I am afraid that it will be a little inconvenient, let's talk about it next time." ”
The expression on her face did not change, but Wei Yanran had doubts in her heart, did this housekeeper have so much power in the backyard? In a few words, you can make a decision for the master's family, or is it that Mrs. Hai's situation is not as good as a housekeeper now.
"Since Madame is inconvenient, then the princess will come to visit next time." Wei Yanran's temperament has always been that people respect me and I respect him, but this housekeeper is so unkind to her, so don't blame her for using her identity to pressure him.
Sure enough, after her words fell, a touch of embarrassment suddenly slipped across the housekeeper's face, and then smiled reluctantly.
After crossing this stone road, she arrived at the courtyard where Hai Qingtan was, and Wei Yanran saw Hai Qingtan standing at the door to greet her from a long distance. And the latter greeted Wei Yanran with a smile on his face after seeing Wei Yanran's figure.
"Sister Wei, you are here." Hai Qingtan grabbed Wei Yanran's arm as soon as she came up, and then smiled sweetly at her as usual, but somehow, Wei Yanran felt that this smile contained many things that she couldn't understand.
"Don't stand here, come in with me." Hai Qingtan didn't seem to notice Wei Yanran's slightly stiff body, and pulled her into the courtyard together.
instructed the maid to serve tea and snacks to Wei Yanran, Hai Qingtan was busy, as if she cared about Wei Yanran very much, "Sister Wei, you came this time for the order of the head of the family, right?" ”
She lowered her eyes a little sadly, her long eyelashes obscuring the brightness of her eyes, making it impossible to see what she was thinking.
"I didn't expect my sister to do that, and actually stole my father's token before leaving, but why did that token appear in the Yasukuni Mansion? Who rescued my sister? Hai Qingtan frowned with a touch of sadness, frowning lightly, as if he was quite worried about Hai Jingtan.
"Speaking of which, I wonder what happened to Mrs. Hai?" Wei Yanran didn't open her mouth to explain, but asked another question.
Wei Yanran's sudden question seemed to make Hai Qingtan unexpected, she blinked in astonishment, and then sighed heavily, "Mother has angered my father and grandfather by letting my sister alone this time, and this son is still confined in the courtyard and cannot come out." ”
Why is Hai Qingtan's answer different from that of the housekeeper? Who the hell is the two of them lying? One said that Mrs. Hai was seriously ill in bed, but the other said that she was imprisoned, and the Hai family did not seem to be simple.
"I wonder if I can visit Madame if I have free time today?" With a hint of temptation in her eyes, Wei Yanran picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.
The fingers in the sleeve curled up, Hai Qingtan had a look of embarrassment on his face, and then glanced at Wei Yanran apologetically, "It's not that Qingtan didn't take Sister Wei there, but my father gave an order not to allow my mother to see others easily, and even I can't see her on weekdays." ”
Is it true that Mrs. Hai was imprisoned? However, what Hai Qingtan said is somewhat true and how false it is.
Wei Yanran quietly retracted her gaze, and then changed the topic, "It seems that Qingtan also knows about the theft of the family master's order, so after the prince sends the token back that day, can Lord Hai say anything?" Or is there anything I want to convey to the son? ”
Seeing that Wei Yanran no longer mentioned Mrs. Hai, Hai Qingtan breathed a sigh of relief, and her face relaxed a lot, and then took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Wei Yanran, "Father knew that Sister Wei was coming today, so he handed me this letter early, saying that he wanted me to hand it over to Sister Wei in person." ”
"Hai Daren is really thoughtful." Wei Yanran glanced at the envelope casually when she took it, and saw that the seal on it was still sealed with fire paint, so she sighed secretly that Lord Hai was thoughtful.
"As far as I know, the Hai family has also sent many people to look for your sister, is there any news now?" Wei Yanran carefully tucked the envelope into her sleeve and casually talked to Hai Qingtan.
After that, the conversation between the two revolved around Hai Jingtan, and Wei Yanran quietly asked Hai Qingtan about Hai Jingtan's childhood, but Hai Qingtan didn't know anything.
From their conversations, although Wei Yanran noticed that Hai Qingtan liked her sister very much, the sense of disobedience in this became more and more serious, as if the former was deliberately hiding something.
After saying everything that should be said, and asking everything she wanted to ask, Wei Yanran got up to say goodbye, and then left with Qingzhi.
Looking at the backs of their master and servant leaving, Hai Qingtan subconsciously squinted his eyes, but the fingers holding the door frame became more and more forceful, until there was no longer a trace of expression on his face, "The hands and feet you did won't let them see it, right?" ”
"Miss, please rest assured, the slaves and maids are all made of fire paint, and the slaves and maids will naturally handle this trivial matter."
"That's the best."
……
After getting into the carriage, Wei Yanran took out the letter from her sleeve and looked at it carefully, but she didn't see the reason.
"Miss cares so much about this letter, do you suspect Miss Hai of lying?" Wei Yanran's intuition has always been very accurate, and if she hadn't noticed something wrong with this letter, she would never have read it repeatedly.
Frowning slightly, Wei Yanran bit her lower lip, and took the envelope over and looked at it several times, but still didn't find any problems, "I don't know why, I always feel that Hai Qingtan is weird today." ”
She seemed to be deliberately hiding something, and she wished that Wei Yanran would leave quickly, and even her words were no longer as steady and gentle as usual, Wei Yanran was now six points sure that there must be something wrong with Hai Qingtan.
Just as the master and servant were frowning and thinking at the same time, the carriage suddenly shook heavily, and the horses outside also neighed and stopped moving.
"What's going on?"
