Chapter 245: Enemies Meet
Wei Huai'an ended his conversation with Su Haoran, and then came to Su Mu's spiritual room.
"Ling'er...... Uncle just asked me if I wanted to marry you. ”
Although the two did not meet on their wedding night like ordinary people, Wei Huaian was still a little shy if it was so straightforward.
Su Muling raised his head and looked at him quietly, waiting for him to speak.
"I said that when I returned to Beijing in the next year, I would come to propose marriage."
Wei Huai'an swallowed his saliva quietly, and looked at her with a pair of eyes and veins affectionately.
Su Muling smiled, as if everything was expected.
"Daddy is like that, always trying to marry me off in a hurry. Don't agree to the prince first, the major events of life still have to be judged by the family. ”
"My grandmother and father listened to me."
Su Muling's attitude was unclear, and Wei Huai'an was a little anxious.
"Since ancient times, how can marriage have its own decisions? What's more, the prince is still the noble son of Houfu. I advised the prince to ask the family before making a decision. Su Muling insisted.
"Okay, I'll go back to Beijing and tell my grandmother." Wei Huai'an turned around and left.
Su Muling followed a few steps behind him, and called him anxiously: "Huai'an......"
Wei Huai'an did not pause at all, and went directly to Su Haoran to ask for his resignation.
"In order to show my sincerity to Ling'er, I will leave for Beijing now. After showing his grandmother's family, Huai'an came to ask Ling'er for marriage again. ”
Su Haoran didn't know what happened to make Wei Huaian so anxious to return to Beijing, but Su Haoran was happy in his heart. Su Muling's family affairs are uncertain for a day, and he is worried about it for a day.
Su Haoran said a few words to send people out of the door.
Wei Huai'an left, but Su Muling felt uneasy. Although she also likes Wei Huai'an, she is still a little hesitant when it comes to talking about marriage. Although she also cares about Wei Huai'an in her heart, Xiao Wenxuan is a lingering shadow in her heart.
The news that Su Muling was going to marry spread within the Su family, and the entire Su family was immersed in joy. Su Muling was not affected at all like an outsider, just teasing her two younger brothers and sisters every day.
Su Muling stayed at home honestly, and when Xichun saw that she was afraid that she would be depressed without leaving home, she pulled her to go shopping on the street, buy some embroidery threads, and casually retrieve Su Muling's new clothes.
Su Muling also wanted to go out to breathe, she put on a honey-colored brocade skirt, buckskin cotton boots, and a white fox fur coat. got in the carriage and took Xichun and Wuying all the way around.
Walking on the bustling street, the feet are light. The brilliant sunlight sprinkled between the green tiles and red walls everywhere, the abrupt horizontal cornices, the high fluttering shop signs, the sparkling carriages and horses, the endless flow of pedestrians, and the tranquil and comfortable smiling faces, all show people's desire and expectation for the New Year.
Su Muling was in it, and his heart couldn't help but feel comfortable. She and Xichun took new clothes and bought some pen and ink.
"Miss, look, what a beautiful begonia flower."
After walking around, Su Muling was about to go home, but Xichun grabbed her and pointed to a flower shop and shouted excitedly.
"Miss, you happen to be missing a few pots of flowers in your house. Shall we buy some back? ”
"Let's go." Su Muling looked at the blooming begonias placed at the door and walked in with a smile.
"Guest officer, what kind of flowers do you like? We have yellow xin, tangtang, brocade ribbon, beauty cherry, and calendula here, which one do you need? ”
"Ten pots each should be sent to the Su family on Tianzhu Street."
"Okay! Huang Xin, Tang Tang, Jin Dai, Beauty Cherry, and Calendula each have ten pots and send them to the Su family on Tianzhu Street. Miss has a total of eight taels and eight dollars. ”
The young man neatly calculated the account and looked at this rare beauty in front of him with a smile.
Xichun took out his purse, took out ten taels of silver, and handed it to the young man.
The young man took the silver and was about to make change, when a voice came from the back door: "Ban'er, return the silver to Miss Su." In the future, when Miss Su comes to buy flowers, she will not need money. ”
Su Muling didn't know that she still had such a big face, and when she turned her head to look, she saw Yao Junnan walking towards her with a smile.
Su Muling reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "I didn't even know that this flower shop was originally Feng Gongzi's property. However, Mu Ling thanked Feng Gongzi for his kindness, and the money still had to be given. ”
Su Muling gave Xichun a look, and Xichun didn't wait to find money, so he took her arm and walked out.
"Sister Mu Ling, wait, I don't mean anything else, I just want to express my apologies and offense to my sister a few days ago. If Sister Mu Ling doesn't accept it, I will think that my sister is still angry with me. ”
Yao Junnan stepped forward to stop her, and his seemingly sincere words made Su Muling unable to refuse his good intentions.
Su Muling was very upset about his sister Mu Ling, and seeing that the people in the store were looking at her sideways, Su Muling didn't want to entangle with him, so he gave Yao Junnan a salute and said politely:
"In that case, thank you Feng Gongzi for your kindness, I still have to take a step in advance." After saying that, he didn't look back on the ground, and waited for the carriage at the door.
Yao Junnan followed behind her and watched her leave with a smile. The carriage went farther and farther, and the smile on Yao Junnan's face gradually disappeared......
That day, he heard that Su Muling had returned to Songjiang and was excited. Single
He thought that Su Muling had been wandering outside all these years and was getting older, so he would honestly find a man to marry and live his life as he should.
According to Su Muling's age, men of the right age have already started a family. The concubine in the side room, Yi Su Muling's character and identity, would never agree.
His status, status and financial resources are not inferior to the Su family, and he knows Su Muling, if he asks Su Muling to marry, he will definitely get a beauty.
But he made a mistake, it turned out that Su Muling had never broken off the man who loved her. Yao Junnan was slapped in the face by Su Muling, but he still hit it hard.
Yao Junnan was humiliated by Wei Huai'an in the teahouse and was annoyed. But he is not a person who will give up easily, he decided to make Su Muling change his opinion of him, he wanted Su Muling to see the image of the man he held up with silver.
Therefore, at the moment when Su Muling sent it to the door, Yao Junnan finally used the free order to maintain his self-esteem!
In the evening of the same day, fifty pots of budding flowers were sent to Su's house.
Su Muling asked Xichun to send a few pots of each of Su Haoran and Ru Ping's rooms, and left a few pots in his own room, and the rest were distributed to his subordinates.
This night, all the people in the Su family slept very deeply......
When Su Muling was awakened, he didn't know where he was for a while. She opened her eyes sleepily, and the room was brightly lit. Several people in tattered clothes and dirt stood in front of her bed staring at her.
"You ...... Someone ......" A knife was pressed against her throat, and Su Muling closed her mouth.
The man with the knife looked at her with a sneer: "I can't imagine it, we will meet again in a year or two." ”
"You? Song Mingjie? Through the messy hair and dirt, Su Muling looked at this nightmarish face in surprise, and he really came out.
"Miss Su, you still know me."
Another petite figure came over and lifted the broken hair on his forehead, it was Song Mingjie's favorite concubine Wang.
"And me, eldest sister, didn't expect me to be alive, right?"
Another man, who was packing all her jewelry into a box, also turned around and came to her.
Su Muling looked at Song Mingjie and his wife and concubine and took a few deep breaths, and replied coldly: "Su Wanqing, I also recognize you when you turn to ashes." ”
Song Mingjie sat on the edge of Su Muling's bed, withdrew the knife, reached out and stroked Su Muling's cheek, with a sly look in his eyes.
"Want to know what's going on? Any idea why we're here? ”
"How did you get in?" Su Muling stared at him, wanting to move her body, but found that her limbs were weak, and she knew that she should be poisoned.
Song Mingjie got up and came to the window and reached out to pick a begonia flower.
"How did you get in? Haha, swaggering in. You know? There is a chasing soul in the flower/stamen of this flower, and ordinary people will be drowsy and unable to wake up after smelling it a few times. After twelve hours, the poisoned person will fall asleep and die if there is no antidote. That is to say, if you don't want the Su family to be destroyed, you have to obediently cooperate with us, otherwise, today next year will be the sacrifice day of your Su family. ”
Song Mingjie waved his hand, and a pot of flowers fell to the ground and shattered.
Su Muling was taken aback, and suddenly regretted it in her heart.
Xichun wanted to put flowers in two places in her father's and her room, and Su Muling insisted on putting a pot in the next person's room.
If according to Xichun's arrangement, it would be impossible for these outlaws to swagger into the Su family with only their shadowless skills.
"What do you want?" Su Muling pretended to be calm.
Song Mingjie, Su Wanqing, and Wang, who escaped from death row, can do anything.
How she herself doesn't care, it's a big deal to die. But she couldn't let Su Haoran and a few younger siblings have an accident.
Song Mingjie sat back in front of the bed, stared at her beautiful face, squinted and smiled evilly: "Simple, take out the map to Donggu Island." ”
Su Muling's heart was relieved, it turned out that he wanted a map.
She knew that the prison escape in the capital was in an uproar, and Song Mingjie and his colleagues would sooner or later fall into the legal net under the national arrest, and what was waiting for them at that time was the head of the family.
And Donggu Island is far away from the Ming Dynasty, and it is the fastest way to escape from the Ming Dynasty.
"If you want money, I can give you all the money, but the map of Donggu Island has been destroyed by Daddy." Su Muling stared at him.
Everyone in her family has been poisoned, and she has to do her best to save her life and earn a chance for her family to live. If she handed over the map, Song Mingjie would not let anyone in the Su family go.
"Ruined? You are talking nonsense, that map is Daddy's treasure, and it can't be easily destroyed. ”
Su Wanqing drank while gulping down the lotus seed mung bean crisp on Su Muling's table.
After two years in the dungeon, they were tortured to the point that their skin was covered with bones, and when they saw this snack, Su Wanqing ate it first.
"Since Aunt Ru gave birth to a child for the Su family, my father decided to wash his hands and not dry them. It was a bane to keep the map, and I persuaded my father to burn it. ”
"So, I didn't have a map. But I will give you the money of my house, that you may flee for your lives. ”
Su Muling said, his hand quietly reaching under the pillow, where there was a dagger sharpened like clay.
