Chapter 508: Visit

"Who in Xinghua can do what Dad wants to do at one time?"

Although Yun Niang is a daughter of an official family, she usually rarely asks about the affairs in the official yamen, basically does not care, and rarely inquires.

"Wang Zhijun is also old, he basically doesn't care about things in Xinghua, and all the big and small things are pushed to the general judgment yamen, from the actual situation, if he can find Yang Tongju, he will say a word, and the inspection department will stop. It's just that my father had some unhappiness with this Yang Tong before the sentence, but he couldn't pull his face to find him. ”

"What is the holiday between my father and Yang Tongju? Why didn't my daughter hear about it? ”

"It was a few years ago, it was when I was an official in Nanjian Prefecture, there was a big case that year, and I asked you to draw a portrait of the murderer, do you still have an impression?"

"My daughter remembered that it was a big case, and we returned to Xinghua from Nanjianzhou that year. But what does this case have to do with Yang Tong's sentencing? ”

"It's very related, he is the secretary of the palace soldier case who inspected the Shencai Army stationed in Nanjianzhou, the case was very complicated back then, originally he was a witness to help the state government solve the case, but in the end he swayed between the state government and the god cavalry army to control the yamen, although the matter subsided, my father was very disappointed in him, and he also felt that my father had deceived him, and finally broke up. Now that I'm going to look for him, my dad really can't pull his face. ”

Father Meng shook his head again and sighed.

And after Yun Niang heard this, the figure of the man many years ago instantly appeared in front of her, and there were ripples in her heart for a while, and she couldn't help but be in a trance.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, Dad will think of a way by himself, it's really not good, I don't want this old face, what if I go to see him in person!"

Father Meng waved his hand, as if to dispel the troubles in his heart.

"Dad, you used to have a higher official position than him, and you were older than him, no matter how you say it, you can be regarded as his elder, how can you go to see him? He should have come to see you. It's better to let your daughter try it first, if he can come to see her father, it's naturally best, if he doesn't come, then find a way. ”

In a trance, Yun Niang suddenly had an idea in her heart, she couldn't suppress it, and after quickly thinking about it, she decided to obey her own mind this time, so she took the initiative to ask Ying to help her father take over the matter.

"How can one of your daughters' family show up, and besides, there is a difference between men and women, it is better for your father to go to see him himself."

When Father Meng heard this, he refused directly without hesitation.

"How could the daughter go to see him, I heard that his wife has a wide range of friends, is a heroine among women, and has frequent contacts with the family of Xinghua officials, although the daughter has not seen her before, but she has long wanted to know her, meet with her, chat, maybe you can solve the trouble of your father, and the people around you say a word, isn't it much easier than the father to come to the door in person? Let her daughter try it first, probe the style, and have a preparation for success or not, in case he is unreasonable, and his father can't come to the door in person to fold face. Dad, what do you think? ”

Yun Niang's words hit the pain point in Father Meng's heart, and he was worried that Yang Cong, who was now a general judge, would not be reasonable and would not give him this face, so he was indecisive and irritable.

If the daughter can find out the wind through the other party's family, it will be the best to become natural, and if she doesn't succeed, she will not think of other ways, and she will not lose her old face.

"Okay, you can go and have a look. But remember, your father is no longer an official of the court, and you are still a daughter to be married, so you must be polite when you speak and act, and don't be unreasonable and aggressive. ”

"Is my daughter like that, don't worry."

After Yun Niang finished speaking, she quickly left with an irrepressible excitement, and walked quickly towards the backyard, she had to prepare well.

Father Meng looked at the back of his daughter who left, stunned, his daughter is nineteen years old, and she has to book a family affair for her no matter what this year, and she must be married within two years and find a lifelong support, otherwise he will not feel at ease even if he dies.

Yun Niang returned to the backyard and instructed her subordinates to prepare a carriage for her, and she was going to go to the Yamen tomorrow morning, and then with the help of the maid, she began to choose the clothes to wear when she went out tomorrow, and she worked for an hour or two before determining the clothes, headdresses, and accessories to be worn tomorrow.

Her maid didn't understand this, and she didn't explain much, but said that she couldn't be too casual when she went to see Mrs. Tongju.

The next morning, Qingchen was selecting cloth in the house, preparing to sew a dress for her husband, when she suddenly heard a report from someone who had come to visit.

Recently, she rarely saw outsiders, and asked who was coming, and the next person replied that the person who came was the daughter of Mengfu, and she had been waiting outside the door for a while.

Meng's daughter?

Qingchen thought about it carefully, there was no such person among the people she knew, and she wanted to find a reason to shirk it, but after thinking about it, she had seen each other, and she didn't know what the other party's character was, so she refused to meet.

After some deliberation, Qingchen finally decided to see each other, if it wasn't for the people, it would be a big deal not to communicate in the future.

She asked Lian'er to go outside the courtyard on her behalf to invite the daughter of Mengfu to come in, and she tidied up her hair and clothes a little, and hurriedly went to find other accessories to dress up.

Because she has been in the backyard, she didn't think about seeing outsiders, she didn't clean up much in the morning, no thrush, no powder, no lip dye, at this time it's obviously too late to get these again, but you can't just see outsiders, it would be too rude, so she hurriedly drew her eyebrows, applied some powder, and dyed her lower lip.

When she was almost packed, Lian'er came to report: "Madam, the daughter of Mengfu has arrived." ”

Qingchen wanted to draw his eyebrows carefully, but he couldn't make the guests wait for a long time, so he could only get up and go out of the house to meet the uninvited guests.

As soon as he entered the reception hall, Qingchen's eyes were attracted by a beautiful woman about seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a green embroidered cloud shirt, an ankle-length lotus green silk skirt, and embroidered green cloth shoes.

I saw the woman sitting there quietly, smiling slightly, and for a while, Qingchen looked a little distracted.

"Madam, this is the daughter of Meng's mansion." Seeing that Mrs. was a little distracted, Lian'er was busy introducing and reminding her.

Qingchen had just come back to his senses, and saw the woman sitting in the hall get up and salute her, and said softly in her mouth: "Meng Fu Yunniang, I have seen Madame." ”

"You have to sit down, it doesn't have to be."

Qingchen walked into the hall in a few steps and sat down opposite Yun Niang.

"Mrs. Xie." After Yun Niang thanked her, she then sat down.

Qingchen saw that the other party had a lot of etiquette, and he was not a pampered eunuch, so he immediately ordered Lian'er to serve tea.

"I don't think we've seen each other before, right?"

Qingchen couldn't say that she was enthusiastic about the woman in front of her, because the situation she was facing at the moment was a bit complicated, and she didn't know the other party's intentions, for her, any young and unmarried woman was a threat, and she had to be careful. Her sisters who helped her get ideas didn't recommend her concubines less, although most of them were unmarried women with ordinary families, but they were not without the daughters of large families.

"Madame is saying that we have never met. Although the little woman has never seen Madame, but the name of Madame 'Woman' has long been passed into the boudoir, and the little woman has admired Madame for a long time, and has long wanted to visit, but she has never had the opportunity to meet Madame. I took the liberty to visit today, and I hope that Mrs. will not be surprised, if there is any abruptness, the little woman will apologize to Mrs. here first. ”

Yun Niang smiled, got up, squatted slightly to Qingchen, and gave another salute.

"The sister of the Meng family doesn't have to be so polite, and I have nothing to do in the house. The heroines in the girl's mouth are all false names that they spread falsely, and I don't dare to be it. ”

Qingchen saw that the daughter of the Meng family who came to visit suddenly didn't seem to have any special intentions, she spoke softly, cautiously and politely, and her vigilance in her heart was reduced a little, and there was a smile on her face, because she was a few years older than the other party, in order to show her closeness, she was even commensurate with her sister.

As soon as she heard this, Yun Niang's heart was overjoyed, and the smile on her face became brighter.

I heard her immediately reply: "Mrs. is too modest, Yun Niang has heard many people talk about Mrs. has a smart martial arts, the general thief is not Mrs. opponent at all, even the roadblock bandits do not dare to provoke Mrs., Yun Niang is very envious, if Yun Niang is also like Mrs. with martial arts, where can the world go, why stay in the boudoir all day long, waste time, even the spring and the green are not free." Yun Niang is really envious of Madame! I wonder if Yun Niang is too late to practice martial arts now? ”

Qingchen who said these words was very useful in his heart, and only heard back: "Sister of the Meng family, practicing martial arts is not an easy task, I don't know how much hardship I have to endure, my sister has been in the boudoir for a long time, I am afraid that I don't know much about the hardships of the world, people who wander around all day long, who doesn't want to have a place to live, but where there is a place to eat and sleep, who wants to run around?" It's better for the girl to stay at home safely, once she leaves home, I don't know how much hardship she will have to suffer. ”

"Madame should have traveled a lot of places and seen many people and things, unlike Yun Niang, even if she followed my father as an official, she also went to some places, but it was only limited to the inner courtyard of the government office, or a few places in the city. What interesting people and things can Mrs. encounter, can you tell Yun Niang about it, so that Yun Niang can also have a long insight? ”

Yun Niang showed her identity without a trace, and led to the topic, so that she would not be relatively speechless and embarrassed.

Sure enough, when Qingchen heard that the other party was the daughter of an official eunuch, she suddenly became a little more cautious, and only heard her smile: "Sister said that I was joking, I traveled around in my early years, just to survive, interesting or boring, and I didn't care about it, but whether it was a good person or a bad person, I didn't meet much, and it was just an experience for me." This was also a long time ago, and in recent years, I have been like a girl, living at home, and the outside is a thing of the past for me. I don't know where my sister has been? ”

Yun Niang said: "Yun Niang has not been to too many places, before the age of ten in Putian, after my mother passed away, I went with my father, where he went to be an official, I went to three places, three years ago we came back from Nanjianzhou." My father is no longer an official, and I can only stay at home with him. ”
