Chapter 339: Night Meeting
Seeing that her mother didn't allow it, Chai Zixiao grabbed Xu Lanyin's shirt and cried.
The eldest princess coaxed, "My cousin has something to do when she comes home, she will come to accompany you tomorrow." ”
Because she was afraid that Chai Jingjing would be jealous, Xu Lanyin never dared to make love with Mrs. Xiaozheng, and really wanted to take him home for a day. After listening to the eldest princess's statement, she had to agree.
She picked up Chai Zixiao and said with a smile, "Those people have brought you a lot of gifts, including Grandma Xu...... Oh, it's my aunt, the beautiful clothes she made for you, the yarn that Sister Jia braided for you, the wooden pony and purse that Uncle Ting and Aunt Yue bought for you, the agate red fish that Uncle Zhao bought for you, and a lot of food, I will bring them to you tomorrow. ”
Hearing that there were so many gifts, Chai Zixiao let go of the hand holding Xu Lanyin's neck with tears in her eyes.
When the carriage arrived at the door of Xu's house, it was already brightly lit. Xu Lanyin got out of the car with Zhangqi, and rewarded the coachman with two silver bills.
Xu Qingyan was drinking and eating with Xu Lanzhou, Zhao Wu, and Qin Ru in the outer courtyard.
Xu Lanyin sat down to eat and talked about what she knew from there. One is that the eldest princess now recognizes the Qin family as a righteous daughter, and officially recognizes her relatives on the tenth day of the first month, and then passes it on to the big house after confirming her identity. The two are the corpses of the old Shen family, which have been thrown to the mass graves to feed wolves or dogs, and are guarded by secret guards. The third is that Chai Zhengguan now looks at his innocence, and will find an excuse to remove him from the clan in the future.
These three pieces of news made Xu Qingyan and the others very happy. They were lamenting that Chai Zhengguan's results were too good, and they were discussing how to clean him up after he returned to his hometown.
Xu Qingyan sneered, "I'll just say, how could the eldest princess endure Chai Zheng's harm to Chai Zixiao and coveting their property." They must be more ruthless than ours. No matter how much we hate Chai Zhengguan, for the sake of him being Yanmei's biological father, it is impossible to kill him. ”
Zhao Wu was in Jingzhao Mansion during the day to watch the trial. He said that the confession of the mother and son of the He family in Jingzhao Mansion was the same as that of the judge in Hebei before, although he was not sentenced today, but listening to Jingzhaoyin's meaning, he could not run away from the cane and was exiled to the north.
He guessed that the people of the Eldest Princess's Mansion would not spare them so easily, and if they bought off the escorted officials, it was likely that these two would die of illness before they could reach the penal colony.
Qin Ru was invited to the second room of the Chai family by Chai Juma at the end of the day today, and watched those people take care of the dowry. He said that he would be at the Chai family during the day in the past few days, afraid that the Chai family would transfer property, and at night the eldest princess left two stewards in the mansion, and he also left a small servant there to watch.
Several of the children of the old Shen family still wanted to set aside the dowry of the old Shen family first, but Qin Ru did not agree, and insisted on spitting out the dowry of Chai Zhengguan and the old Shen family's greedy ink Qin Huiniang first, and then talking about anything else.
Still regretted, "At the beginning, the dowry that our Qin family gave to my aunt and grandmother added up to nearly 100,000 taels of silver, which can be described as ten miles of red makeup. Before my cousin and aunt had an accident, she also paid Chai Zhengguan 2,000 taels of silver every year. But now, it would be nice to be able to recover fifty thousand taels of silver. ”
As soon as it came to money, Xu Lanyin glanced at Xu Lanzhou reflexively. Xu Lanzhou has improved a lot, biting his lip, but he didn't express his opinion in the end. But the red fluttering cheeks and the anxiety in his eyes showed that he was not only excited that there was so much silver in his family, but also that he had lost so much in pain. Although he didn't speak, everyone could see the gains and losses.
Xu Qingyan was very attentive to educating this eldest son, and he told a bunch of truths.
For example, no matter how much silver is more or how much money is missing, you must have a correct attitude. Good men don't eat family meals, good women don't wear wedding clothes, and they have the ability to earn their own. The lives of loved ones, the future of the family and oneself are much more important than silver. Look at Chai Zhengguan and Lao Shen, they did whatever it took for the silver, and finally put themselves and their descendants into it. This is still because Chai Juma is powerful and has put the blame on the old Shen family, if the official business is done, Chai Zhengguan will be beaten and imprisoned, and their family is even more ugly......
Xu Qingyan seemed to be talking to everyone present, but in fact, it was mainly aimed at Xu Lanzhou. He was afraid that this son would be too much like his father, and he would take a detour in the future because of money.
Xu Lanzhou saw the fate of Chai Zhengguan and Lao Shen, and also knew how they persecuted their mother in the first place. After listening to his father's words, he quickly nodded, and the gains and losses just now were significantly less.
The same thing is said differently by different people. Xu Lanyin had told him a lot before, maybe this eldest sister's previous performance was too unsatisfactory, and Xu Lanzhou always couldn't listen to it.
And Xu Lanting, Xu Lanyin's words are much more effective than Xu Qingyan's words.
When they said that, they went back to their rooms to rest.
At night, everything is silent, and only the bamboo leaves in the yard can be heard rustling in the night wind.
Xu Lanyin couldn't fall asleep in bed. She felt that Zhao Wu should come to her. She also misses Zhao Wu, and she misses it very much. Although they were only separated for one day and one night, her days in the Eldest Princess's Mansion were not easy.
Since crossing over, Xu Lanyin could only say all her thoughts to Zhao Wu, and only Zhao Wuyin calmed her helpless and panicked heart. Unlike in her previous life, her parents were her best haven. Especially her father, she can tell him all the things on her mind.
And in this life, the cheap mother's health is not good, a younger brother is not intimate, and a younger brother is too young, and the family mainly relies on her to support. Later, the cheap father came back, and there was another "second mother" and a half-sister, and the relationship between the father and daughter was still not close, and she never thought of relying on this cheap father.
Only Zhao Wu, who was the warmest brother before he was married, was the future little father-in-law after he was married. Her joys, sorrows, and sorrows can be shared with him
Suddenly, Xu Lanyin's window lattice rang, followed by two more wild cat calls.
Xu Lanyin laughed, turned over and got up, the clothes on her body were already on, and she took another cloak.
Xu Qingyan is not the Qin family, Zhao Wu came to find her, he can guess, and it is not necessary to follow her. So the two of them must not talk in her boudoir, just talk in the bright light outside.
Zhao Wu thought the same way. He lives in Xu Lanzhou's yard, next to Xu Qingyan's yard, and it is not necessary for him to run out and be followed by Xu Qingyan.
But he really missed Xu Lanyin too much. After a day and three autumns, he finally understood the meaning of the word. He can't wait for tomorrow, and he wants to talk to her alone today.
Zhao Wu smiled brighter than the starry sky in the sky, and whispered, "I miss my sister, let's go to the garden for a walk." Then he instructed, "The night wind is strong, put on your cloak." ”
Xu Lanyin nodded.
Before leaving the small courtyard gate, Zhao Wu pinched Xu Lanyin's little hand, and hurriedly let go, for fear that Xu Laoyou's eyes would suddenly jump out when he was watching them.
The two of them passed through the bright moon gate and came to the small garden. The small garden of the Xu family is very small, only one acre of land, and there is a small pond in the middle. Now the weather is cold, and there is no hostess Zhang Luo, there are no flowers and plants in the small garden, most of them are trees and bamboos, which looks even more desolate and desolate.
