Chapter 45: The Bastard Daughter

Wang Qin'er hurriedly said gratefully: "Thank you, Miss Lu." ”

At this time, Lu Guanlan also had a smile in his eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Ruoxuan thought that Wang Qin'er was also pitiful, so it was better to be a companion.

He rolled up the sleeves of the two and said, "Two good sisters, let's go back to the table for a snack." My confectionery chef is one of the best in Kyoto. ”

The three of them talked and laughed back to the banquet, like sisters, eating tea and chatting together.

The spring is warm, the ladies rarely come out to let off steam, all of them are full of spring breeze, Rao is Lu Guanlan is also in a very good mood today, and even ate a few more pieces of dim sum.

On the way back to the house after the banquet, Chen Ruoxuan wanted to continue to take Lu Guanlan's carriage, but was stopped by Mrs. Chen, who only said that she was not on the way, and she didn't have to let Miss Lu go around more.

Chen Ruoxuan pursed her lips, looking unhappy, "Sister Lu, let's see you another day." ”

Lu Guanlan smiled: "If you want, you can come to the house tomorrow to find me." ”

Mrs. Chen shook her head, "You girl, where can you run out twice in three days, so unruly, always disturb your Sister Lu like this, and ask your father to clean you up when the time comes." ”

As soon as she heard this, Chen Ruoxuan suddenly wilted, and had to get into her carriage like she was dejected.

Lu Guanlan smiled, and was about to turn around and go back to the carriage, but caught a glimpse of Wang Qin'er looking around blankly.

Lu Guanlan looked around, but didn't see the Wang family's carriage, so he asked Ah Li on the side: "Mrs. Wang is gone?" ”

Ah Li nodded, "When the slave maid came out first, I happened to see Mrs. Wang leaving with the second lady of the Wang family. ”

Lu Guanlan sighed, yes, help others to the end, since she picks this person, she has to make people trust her.

Thinking about it, he walked towards Wang Qin'er.

Wang Qin'er was anxious, seeing that Lu Guanlan did not get into the carriage, but walked towards him, and was still a little puzzled.

I heard Lu Guanlan say: "My house is close to Sister Wang's house, why don't you take Sister Wang's carriage and talk together on the road?" ”

Wang Qin'er's eyes were full of gratitude, and she hurriedly said, "Today······ Thank you, Sister Guanlan. ”

got into the carriage, Wang Qin'er was silent, her eyebrows were deep, as if she was thinking about something, but she looked sad.

Lu Guanlan didn't ask, she knew that Wang Qin'er was thinking about whether she should tell her some words.

She chose Wang Qin'er in a thought, not because of Wang Qin'er's family or personality.

It's that she knows that Wang Qin'er is in pain.

It is such a biological mother that makes Wang Qin'er feel painful. It is precisely because of this pain that I want to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Although Lu Guanlan is not completely sure, she can't expect Wang Qin'er to agree to be the continuation of the Lu family, but she is just betting now, if she wins the bet, Song Yuemei's end of life will be earlier.

There was nothing to say all the way, until the carriage entered the city, and when it was about to arrive at the Hubu Shangshu Mansion, Wang Qin'er suddenly called Lu Guanlan, "Sister Guanlan!" ”

Lu Guanlan pretended to be puzzled, "What's wrong with Sister Wang?" ”

Wang Qin'er seemed to have made up her mind, and said: "Actually, I am not my mother's biological child. ”

Lu Guanlan was silent, only quietly stared at Wang Qin'er and listened to her details.

"I am the illegitimate daughter brought back by my father, and my father was afraid that it would affect his career, so he hid it from all over the house, and my mother couldn't tell the outside world, so she could only vent it on me. My father knew that he was wrong, and he never cared about what my mother did to me. I knew my mother hated me, and I knew I shouldn't have been born, but I couldn't make a choice······" Wang Qin'er said, with sadness in her eyes.

Even Ah Li on the side felt pitiful when he saw it.

But Lu Guanlan still didn't make any waves, "Since the whole mansion has been hidden, why did Sister Wang talk to me today?" ”

Wang Qin'er had tears in the corners of her eyes, "I don't know why, maybe I ······ It is grateful to my sister. ”

"If you're grateful, I'll tell me the secrets of your house?" Lu Guanlan smiled slightly, "Sister Wang, you and Lu have not proposed marriage for two years, I'm afraid it's all because of Mrs. Wang." ”

Wang Qin'er didn't expect Lu Guanlan to guess like this, so she nodded and said: "I am now in the name of the daughter of the head of the household, and I naturally still come to propose marriage, but my mother felt that I was not worthy, and I should not have a good marriage, so I stopped them." ”

"So you're trying to ask me to help you find a good match?" Lu Guanlan said slowly.

Wang Qin'er seemed a little embarrassed, and lowered her eyes slightly, "My sister has two older brothers at home······"

Lu Guanlan smiled suddenly.

Wang Qin'er had such a thought, and she was not surprised.

How can a person who grew up in such a situation really not think about it.

Wang Qin'er wanted to marry in order to get rid of Mrs. Wang, but she couldn't marry because of her father's identity as a household secretary. I am a lady of all people, and I don't have the opportunity to meet any men, so how can I talk about getting married.

When the three of them were chatting today, she deliberately revealed that she had two brothers who had not married his wife, in order to make Wang Qin'er think like this.

It's just that she doesn't want Wang Qin'er to be her sister-in-law.

Thinking about it, Lu Guanlan stretched out his hand, pulled Wang Qin'er's palm, stroked it gently, and comforted: "Sister Wang, it's not that I don't want to help you, I can't do anything about these two brothers." You also know that my biological mother passed away, and now I can't move an inch in the house. ”

Wang Qin'er thought that Lu Guanlan agreed, and her eyes were full of hope, but when she heard Lu Guanlan say this, her eyes suddenly darkened.

Lu Guanlan said again: "Sister Wang doesn't need to be sad, if you are depressed, come to the house to talk to me another day." ”

Wang Qin'er nodded, said goodbye to Lu Guanlan, got out of the car and walked back to the house.

Ah Li said on the side: "This Miss Wang is also strange, just a few steps away, can you not let us send it over?" Could it be that because Miss didn't help her say goodbye, she was angry with Miss? ”

Lu Guanlan shook his head, "She's smart." ”

Mrs. Wang hated Wang Qin'er to the core, and today she deliberately left Wang Qin'er alone, but Lu Guanlan did this good person and sent Wang Qin'er back.

Wang Qin'er must have known that her mother was stingy, and she was afraid that Mrs. Wang would know that it was her Miss Lu family who was nosy and would hate her in the future, so she went back alone.

A poor man after all.

Lu Guanlan sighed, thinking of himself in his previous life.

In his previous life, didn't he also hope to marry a good husband so that he could leave the ice cellar-like house.

Wang Qin'er is so similar to herself in her previous life, but because she didn't see the world clearly, she still expects to be happy because of a man.

However, at this time, she did not sympathize with Wang Qin'er, after all, her own experience was not much better.

When I returned home, I saw Mama Zhang waiting in the yard, and Xiaoju was staring at it closely.

Lu Guanlan couldn't help but smile when he saw Xiao Ju looking at Mama Zhang with an angry face.

She bought Mama Zhang, only she and Ah Li knew about it in this house, and she didn't reveal half a word to Xiao Ju, no wonder Xiao Ju was so vigilant.

As soon as Mama Zhang saw Lu Guanlan coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward, "The eldest lady is coming with the slave." ”

Lu Guanlan saw that Mama Zhang seemed to have something to say, so he waved his hand at Ah Li and Xiao Ju, signaling that the two did not need to follow, and followed Mama Zhang out of the yard.

When she arrived at a back wall outside the peach orchard, Mama Zhang stopped.

"Mama Zhang, is there something important to say?" Lu Guanlan spoke first.

Mama Zhang seemed to be a little hesitant, her expression was also quite flustered, and her eyes were even more wandering.

This made Lu Guanlan puzzled.

What is it that can make Mama Zhang afraid of this?

"Mama said," Lu Guanlan spoke again.

Mama Zhang swallowed her saliva at this time, trembled her lips and said, "The slave found out······ The slave maid found that there was a box of arsenic in Aunt Song's house. ”

Arsenic? Lu Guanlan was stunned.

This arsenic is not easy to buy, even if Song Yuemei has the ability, she can't get as much as a box.

What puzzled her was whether the arsenic had been used, or who was it intended for.

The toxicity of arsenic is the most easily identifiable, and if Song Yuemei really wants to harm people, she shouldn't use such a superficial means.

Thinking about it, Lu Guanlan raised his eyes, "Mama don't make a noise first, let's wait and see what happens." ”

Mama Zhang thought that Lu Guanlan would also be frightened, but unexpectedly, this young lady was very calm, but it was strange to call her an old woman.

However, Mama Zhang really didn't expect that this Song Yuemei would be so arrogant, and she dared to use arsenic.

Lu Guanlan saw that Mama Zhang hesitated and refused to leave, so he took out a gold ingot from his sleeve, "It's not easy for Mama to find out the news, so I'll take it to tea, and at the end of next month, the things I promise to Mama will naturally not be less." ”

Mama Zhang hurriedly took it with both hands, couldn't stop thanking her, and forgot about the arsenic in an instant.

After returning to the house, Lu Guanlan asked Xiaoju to light a stick of incense.

Ah Li hurriedly stepped forward to help her and asked on the side, "Miss is uneasy?" ”

Lu Guanlan shook his head and lay down on the couch, his arms supporting his forehead, seemingly closing his eyes to recuperate, but his mind was combing through the recent events.

Song Yuemei wanted to call her two sons back. It is estimated that in less than half a month, her two brothers will be back.

As for why, it is natural that Song Yuemei is now neglected, and she is worried that her position as the master mother will be lost, so she will naturally think of a way to keep Lu Bingyan's heart.

But Lu Bingyan's heart is now in Zhou Susu's place, so Song Yuemei has to pull out her two sons, so that Lu Bingyan knows that now the Lu family only has two sons, and they all came out of her Song Yuemei's belly.

She didn't know what her two brothers were going to do when they returned. I'll put this matter aside for the time being, and I'll think about it when the two of them come back.

The second thing is Wang Qin'er.

She was sure that Wang Qin'er would come to her, but she would have to go in a few days, and she was not in a hurry.

This third thing is the one that Ah Li doesn't want to inquire about.

She pondered that now that she was in Beijing, it was naturally not as good as being in Shuzhong, and she could send Ah Li to Chengmo for help.

Thinking of this, she only felt irritable.

There is also a new fourth thing, that is, what is the use of the arsenic in Song Yuemei's room, where does it come from, and how she wants to find out.

The more he thought about it, the more tired he felt, so Lu Guanlan fell asleep with his arms on his pillow.

After a short nap, Lu Guanlan was woken up by a cacophony.

"What's going on?" Lu Guanlan sat up sleepily.

Ah Li hurriedly came in from the outhouse and said, "Chunxiang brought someone here, saying that the master invited the young lady to the lobby." ”

Lu Guanlan's eyebrows frowned slightly, spring fragrance? Why isn't Mama Zhang coming?

She remembered that Mama Zhang looked panicked and reported the arsenic to her, saying that she saw arsenic in Song Yuemei's room, but how did Mama Zhang see it, could it be that Song Yuemei showed the arsenic to Mama Zhang as a tribute?

Thinking of this, Lu Guanlan didn't realize that he was really stupid, maybe his brain was a little messy recently, and he couldn't even notice this small detail.

Come to think of it, Song Yuemei is using her own way to govern others?
