Chapter 16: The Storm at the Door

"Huh?" Han Yi is in a mess, what's wrong with his family?

Chu Huairan was afraid that his mind would be seen clearly, so he walked forward quickly, and said coldly: "If you want to go, you will go, don't talk nonsense." ”

"Yes."

At first, Xiao Wanyan did not agree to marry Chu Huairan Shangshu's mansion, but due to Chu Huairan's lewdness and prestige, Xiao Wanyan voluntarily married, and Xiao Shangshu had to give up.

But today, both the daughter and the son-in-law came to the door, but no one greeted each other in front of the Shangshu Mansion, and the Shangshu Mansion closed the door, and even the little maid was not comfortable guarding outside the door.

Xiao Wanyan said secretly: This may be the silent resistance of Shangshu Mansion.

After all, Chu Huairan is famous, and his daughter marrying a famous bad guy is not something that can be shown off, Chu Huairan looked at the door indifferently, and instructed Han Yi: "Go and open the door, and let the people inside spread the news, so as not to say that our Prime Minister's Mansion does not understand the rules." ”

"Yes." Han Yi got his life, walked to the door and turned over and jumped and disappeared, the door suddenly opened, Han Yi casually pulled over a frightened little guy inside and said, "Tell your master, the master and the lady are back, and they haven't come out to greet each other." ”

The little guy looked at him timidly, got the words, and ran away, Xiao Wanyan, who was watching, glanced at Chu Huairan: "Xiangye, there may be something at home, or let's go back." ”

Shangshu obviously didn't welcome them, and although she was wearing Xiao Wanyan's skin, her style of acting was completely different, and if she was exposed at that time, she would suffer.

Xiao Wanyan felt like a little rabbit in her heart, jumping up and down, unable to settle down.

Chu Huairan pulled her away and stepped out of the carriage: "It's okay, no matter how many things I do, I can wait." ”

Then he instructed Han Yi: "It's not that there are many relatives in Shangshu Mansion, then call them all, Madame will return to the door, how can it not be lively."

After a while, the people of Shangshu Mansion walked out, and a majestic and strong man walked out, that was Shangshu Xiao Qiming, his face was displeased, he walked out of the door, looked at this battle and snorted coldly: "Where is the strong wind blowing the prime minister, it's a pity that our mansion is small, I'm afraid it can't accommodate your big Buddha." ”

Chu Huairan's eyes were sharp, and he said indifferently: "Today, Madame returns to the door, no matter how small the mansion is, we have to enter, and if we can't tolerate it, we have to tolerate it." ”

Xiao Wanyan's nervous eyes on the side wandered between the two, for fear that the two would pinch up the next moment, so she hurriedly shouted: "Father." ”

Xiao Qiming became angry when he looked at her, his eyes refused to stay on her for a moment, and he snorted angrily: "What are you doing when you come back, I'm afraid that my old face won't be lost among my colleagues?" ”

Xiao Wanyan carefully recalled the things before she got married, but her memory seemed to have something wrong, except for her willingness to dismount for Qi Jiuchen and Chu Huai, the rest was blank, and even Xiao Qiming vaguely remembered the quarrel between the two.

She didn't say a word more, for fear of revealing the horse's feet, how could Chu Huairan let Xiao Qiming, an old horseman, bully, he took two steps forward, walked to Xiao Qiming's side and said in a deep voice: "Father-in-law, if you don't let us in again, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as losing face." ”

Xiao Qiming rushed to the top of his head angrily, pointing at Chu Huairan and couldn't speak.

Just when the two were at a stalemate and no one was willing to take a step back, a woman with a haggard face and red eyes ran out of the room, and she anxiously shouted Xiao Wanyan

, and when he came to the front, he grabbed Xiao Wanyan's hand: "Wanyan, you are back." ”

Seeing this, Xiao Qiming angrily scolded the maid behind him: "What's the matter, it's not for you to be optimistic about Madame." ”

A few slaves and maids dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, and the woman begged bitterly: "Master, you can let Wanyan in, it is the rule of the ancestors for the daughter to return to the door, and others will gossip when she stands at the door." ”

Xiao Qiming had no choice but to give up for the sake of face, snorted coldly and stopped speaking, flicked his sleeves and went back to the mansion by himself.

This woman is Xiao Wanyan's mother, Yang, and she took Xiao Wanyan's hand affectionately: "Wanyan, your father is a knife mouth tofu heart, and he actually misses you in his heart." ”

Xiao Wanyan lowered her head slightly, pretending to be sad and said, "My daughter knows." ”

"Mother-in-law, let's go in first, otherwise it won't be good if there are too many people and you bump into Wanyan for a while." Chu Huairan changed his arrogance just now, and said with kind words.

Chu Huairan's quick change of face couldn't help but make Xiao Wanyan admire, because she had been in the Great Liang Palace for so many years, she couldn't say that she could control her face very well.

Yang didn't understand the meaning of Chu Huairan's words, but he didn't say anything, so the two of them went in.

The house was deserted and there was no popularity at all, Xiao Wanyan looked at the depressed looks and couldn't help asking, "What happened in the mother's house?" How did this happen? ”

Yang glanced cautiously at Chu Huairan, who walked behind him, sighed and whispered: "Since you got married, your father has struggled in the court, and even King Yi, who has always been on your father's side, no longer interacts, your sister should have found a good family to marry, but now no one dares to come to the door to propose, not to mention that she was cowardly and timid after experiencing that drowning when she was a child, and she didn't dare to go out even more this time." ”

Xiao Wanyan said that this younger sister Xiao Wanqing was timid when she was a child, as her name suggests, she is light and light on weekdays, has no desires and no desires, and does nothing, she will only stay in the house and recite Buddhist scriptures, she thinks that only Buddha can protect her in the world.

When Xiao Wanyan was a child, she occasionally took her out for a walk, but since Xiao Wanyan married Qi Jiuchen, the two had less contact, she became more timid, and her relationship with Xiao Wanyan gradually became estranged.

Xiao Wanqing lives in Qingshuiju, she sits at her desk all day, the only thing that can contact the outside air is the window in front of her, as soon as the window is opened, the breeze blows, and she is content when she looks at the birds flying by.

Xiao Tao, the maid at the door, came back and whispered softly: "Second Miss, the eldest lady is back, don't you go and take a look?" ”

Xiao Wanqing made a bitter face and looked out the window: "The eldest sister has always disliked me, I just disturbed her mood when I went, and I didn't go." ”

Xiao Tao looked at Xiao Wanyan's face and polished ink for her: "Miss, you can't say that, when you were a child, the eldest lady often took you out and you forgot it, she still cares about you." ”

Xiao Wanqing hesitated and blinked her panicked little eyes: "But since she met Queen Yi, she no longer interacts with me, she just dislikes me." ”

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through Xiao Wanqing's ears, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly hugged her head: "Xiao Tao, the storm is coming, it will away, close the window quickly." ”

Xiao Tao immediately closed the window and carefully comforted: "Second Miss, if we go out for a walk, there will be a lot of people outside, and we won't be blown away by the wind." ”

"It's fine." Xiao Wanyan pinched her fingers tangled, her eyes were erratic, but after thinking about it, she showed a small look of fear: "But if there are more and more people, I accidentally trip, one by one, knocking down the table, the dishes are broken into pieces, and the person falls to the ground, not I will be disfigured, and if I am disfigured, Lang Zhong will not be able to cure me, and no one will dare to marry me, and I will die alone." ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Wanqing picked one from the stack of Buddhist scriptures at hand, and in a panic in her heart, she still walked lightly to the bed and sat down, picked up the quilt and wrapped it around herself, opened the Buddhist scriptures, and muttered word by word.

There was the sound of footsteps outside, and suddenly the door opened, and the nervous Xiao Wanyan immediately put her feet on the couch after hearing it clearly, wrapped it in the quilt, and after a while, she dared to poke her head out cautiously: "Xiao Tao, who is it?" ”

Xiao Wanyan, who walked into the house, was shocked to see such a scene, Xiao Wanqing was wrapped in a quilt and looked at her in horror like a ghost, Xiao Wanyan smiled politely: "Wanqing, what are you doing?" ”

Saying that, she walked inside, Xiao Wanqing's eyes tightened, and she reminded in a low voice: "Sister, be careful of your step." ”

Xiao Wanyan looked suspiciously, there was a Buddhist scripture posted on the ground at intervals, good guy, all the top and bottom of this house were buried by Buddhist scriptures, she didn't know how to get her feet, fortunately, Xiao Tao on the side led her a path.

"Wanqing, I heard from my mother that you have been in the house for more than ten days, this is not good, you see that you are so beautiful, the sons and brothers outside are vying to talk to you when they see you, how can you not give them a chance." Xiao Wanyan lured Xiao Wanqing to take her out to see the world.

I only heard Xiao Wanqing whisper in a false voice: "Sister, you have already used this excuse to trick me into going out twice, once for the Dragon Boat Festival and once for the Chinese Valentine's Day." ”

"Uh, really?" Xiao Wanyan grinned weakly, and said: "This time is really different, you listen to me, I will definitely find you a wishful husband, okay?" ”

Xiao Wanqing flickered her eyes, pursed her lips, and said cautiously: "Really? ”

As soon as Xiao Wanyan saw that there was a play, she immediately struck while the iron was hot: "Xiangye knows many young talents, my sister is so good, how can anyone not like it?" ”

Xiao Wanyan tentatively brushed off the quilt draped on Xiao Wanqing's body: "If you and I don't go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion for a few days this time, I will also introduce you to a few more sons." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Wanyan pressed the Buddhist scripture in her hand tightly to her chest: "Sister, you can't lie to me." ”

Xiao Wanqing didn't go out of the door, so she naturally didn't know Chu Huai's reputation outside, but it was okay, so that she could achieve her mother's wish, after all, she could be reborn thanks to the blessing of the original owner, so she must treat the original owner's family well.

"Of course I don't lie to you." Xiao Wanyan gently took Xiao Wanqing's hand, helped her stand up, and looked at the smile on Xiao Wanyan's face, Xiao Wanqing suddenly felt like a sheep in the tiger's mouth.

She instructed urgently: "Xiao Tao, quickly serve your master to change his clothes, and I will take him out for a walk." ”

Xiao Tao listened, nodded happily and responded: "Yes." ”

It's good to say that she finally got Xiao Wanqing out of the house, but she always looked at Xiao Wanyan with a cautious look.

They walked under a big tree, a leaf fell and Xiao Wanqing, who was frightened, jumped straight to her feet, and there was a flower pond next to her, she staggered a few steps back, tripped over a stone under her feet, and looked like she was about to fall into the water.

"Wanqing, be careful." Xiao Wanyan was shocked, and it was too late to hold her.

In an instant, a figure flashed next to him and grabbed Xiao Wanqing's arm, grabbed her waist, and brought the person to his side.
