Chapter 97: The Lan Family
As the person concerned, Mo Yan was not worried, but the people of the Lan family were worried, and the most anxious was Lan Xin's father, Lan Qinyang, and the people in the house were all driven out.
Zhao Yaqin came to the front of the study, and saw that the people waiting in the room were standing outside, and immediately understood, and waved her hand: "You all retreat." β
"Yes, ma'am!" One by one, they quickly fled from this place of right and wrong.
When Zhao Yaqin came in, she saw Lan Qinyang looking at the inkstone in front of her with a frown: "What is the master still doing with that inkstone?" β
Lan Qinyang was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was Zhao Yaqin, he suppressed his anger: "What do you women know, this is the stone inkstone given by the emperor himself, this is the only one, that is the emperor's trust in me." β
"Master, why are you still obsessed with it now? From the day that Lan Xin's girl died, you have been a useless chess piece in the eyes of the emperor, you ......" Zhao Yaqin said and reached out to get the inkstone.
Lan Qinyang was enraged by her words, and at the moment when Zhao Yaqin stretched out his hand, he opened her hand and slapped Zhao Yaqin hard, where did Zhao Yaqin expect that Lan Qinyang would suddenly be like this, and he was unsuspectingly pulled to the ground, and the corner of his mouth suddenly cracked, oozing a trace of blood.
"You...... You beat me! Zhao Yaqin covered her face, her eyes full of sadness.
"Madam, I'm ......" Lan Qinyang was also stunned, and hurriedly went to help Zhao Yaqin, but was pushed down by Zhao Yaqin and began to cry.
"Lan Qinyang, you have no conscience, you forgot who made you sit in your current position in the first place, without me, you are still the country man, farming and cultivating all your life, you have hard wings now, dare to beat me, Lan Qinyang, I tell you, I can let you go back to the countryside now and have nothing!"
When Lan Qinyang heard this, he immediately became frightened, and quickly pounced, knelt in front of Zhao Yaqin, and wept bitterly.
"Madam, you forgive me this time, I was really too impulsive just now, everything was my fault, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you, let alone hit you, Madam, I was wrong, really wrong."
Zhao Yaqin not only did not lose her anger, but cried even more.
"Lan Qinyang! Have I ever enjoyed a day in my life with you as an ambitious thing? When have I ever been wronged like this? I'm telling you, it's not over! I'm going to make you pay for the slap you gave me today! β
Lan Qinyang was suddenly drenched in a cold sweat, although he became an official, but in front of Zhao Yaqin's mother's family, he was not a bullshit, if she really wanted to do anything to herself, she might not have a chance to turn the tables in her life, and then her brain was on the hard ground, and she kowtowed: "Madam, don't be angry, I really know that I am wrong, Madam, all mistakes are my fault, whatever Madame says in the future, I will never contradict Madame again, Madam, you forgive me this time, Madam." β
The dignified seven-foot man was so low in front of a woman, which also greatly satisfied Zhao Yaqin's vanity, and her heart was a little more comfortable: "Hmph! Lan Qinyang, you remember it for me, this is the last time! If you dare to do it to me again in the future, I will make you destitute, and life is better than death! β
"Yes, yes, yes! I will definitely treat my wife well in the future, and if I commit another offense, I will let my wife deal with it. Zhao Yaqin's anger disappeared, and Lan Qinyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the cold light that flashed in his eyes revealed his truest thoughts at the moment.
Zhao Yaqin gave him a warning look: "Then you will stay at home for me today to reflect on it, when I will allow you to go out, you will go out again." β
"Yes! Madam! Lan Qinyang groveled, and finally sent Zhao Yaqin away, sitting on the chair with an irrepressible resentment on his face.
"Stinky woman! You wait for me, and one day, I will let you pay it back! With that, he got up and walked out of the house.
In the tavern, Lan Qinyang sat in the corner, holding the wine jug alone and pouring wine into his mouth, thinking of Zhao Yaqin's face, he knocked on the table with hatred, attracting everyone's sideways eyes, and with the strength of the wine, Lan Qinyang yelled at the people who cast his eyes.
"You people, you are so bold! Has the official allowed you to see it? Turn your head around for me, whoever dares to take another look, this official will arrest you all in prison! β
Everyone hurriedly twisted their heads back, but one of the people sitting at the table next to Lan Qinyang let out a cold laugh, which attracted Lan Qinyang's attention.
Lan Qinyang struggled to stand up, walked crookedly to the person at the adjacent table, and slapped the wine jug in his hand in front of the person vigorously: "Stinky boy! You sneered at the official just now? β
This person was dressed in white clothes, his hair was tied up high, and he was wearing a green jade peach blossom mask, it was Lan Xin in disguise, Lan Xin didn't look up at Lan Qinyang at all, the biological father of the original owner in front of him, Lan Xin couldn't give birth to a trace of family affection at all.
"What does it matter to you whether I laugh or not?" Lan Xin slowly put the vegetables in his mouth, ignoring Lan Qinyang's gaze.
"You're so daring! I'm asking you! Is this the way you should speak? Believe it or not......"
"Believe it or not, you put me in jail, didn't you?" Lan Xin continued Lan Qinyang's words.
"Lord Lan is really a great skill, he was punished by his wife for kneeling at home, but he ran to a small tavern to show off his might, good! Good! Good! Lan Xin clapped her hands three times, and the disdain in her eyes was self-evident.
As soon as these words came out, the entire tavern instantly stood still, the silence was terrifying, and secretly pinched a sweat for Lan Xin, what kind of person is Lan Qinyang, he will repay him, now that he has offended him, don't think about it in the future.
Lan Qinyang is such a face-saving person, Lan Xin's words are like a needle, pierced into Lan Qinyang's ears, his face is like an overturned palette, blue and purple, very ugly, the wine jug is getting tighter and tighter, and finally can't help the anger in his heart, and immediately holds the wine jar high and smashes it towards Lan Xin's head.
"Stinky boy! You're looking for death! β
Lan Xin's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, his feet quickly kicked the table, his body moved backwards, and in an instant, the wine jug smashed on the table rock, the wine jug shattered, and the wine splashed, Lan Xin immediately got up, raised his hand suddenly, Yang Qi made a white powder, Lan Qinyang just turned around, and the powder flew to Lan Qinyang's body, Lan Qinyang waved his sleeves, and waved the powder away in annoyance, and then looked, there was no longer Lan Xin's figure.
"Come out! You come out for me! I'll kill you! Lan Qinyang was angry and yelled at the air, but no one answered, and humiliation, anger, and hatred all came to his heart.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the others quickly took the opportunity to slip away, and the shopkeeper also quietly hid in the back kitchen, not daring to show up, Lan Qinyang clenched his fists, the anger in his heart seemed to be about to suffocate his chest, and he was trying to find the shopkeeper to vent his anger, when he suddenly saw Lan Xinfang sitting in the position, an amethyst necklace was shining, Lan Qinyang looked at it, his body suddenly shook, and his fingers trembled slightly to pick up the necklace, and his heart had already set off a storm.
"This chain ...... Be...... It's ......"
Lan Qinyang immediately took the necklace into his arms and quickly left the tavern.
Lan Xin went out for a long time and didn't come back, but Xie Zifeng was anxious.
"Death! What the hell do you think of people? I'll just go out for a while, and you'll lose your care? β
"I ......"
"What am I! I'll tell you, be careful, if there are any more three long and two short, I'll screw your head off and kick it as a ball! Xie Zifeng is the only one who knows the true situation of Lan Xin, and it is precisely because he is familiar with the inside story that he is even more worried that Lan Xin will be impulsive and do stupid things.
"Xie Zifeng! You're enough! Do you think I want Xin'er to ......" Lixian was also angry, pointing at Xie Zifeng's head, and his voice suddenly raised.
"My mother is back!" When the two were arguing, Yifan quickly pulled the two back, and both of them were relieved to see the familiar mask and figure.
"Careful, where did you go? Do you know how worried I am about you! Xie Zifeng rushed to Lan Xin regardless of it, bypassed Yifan, and hugged Lan Xin into his arms.
The two of them, one big and one young, who didn't hug Lan Xin for the first time, were a little surprised, staring at Xie Zifeng's back with unkind eyes, eager to stare a hole in his back.
Lan Xin pushed away the red that was lying on her body in disgust, as if her clothes were stained with something unclean, and quickly slapped it with her hand.
Xie Zifeng's eyes were full of injury: "Be careful! What do you mean? β
Lan Xin shrugged: "That's what it means on the surface." β
After speaking, he raised his legs and left, leaving Xie Zifeng to jump straight to his feet.
"Hey! Be careful! You made it clear to me, what is the surface meaning? Feed! Heyβ"
As soon as Lan Xin said today's events, Xie Zifeng jumped up all of a sudden, pointed at Lan Xin and couldn't say a word for a long time, and his face was full of incomprehension.
"Xin'er, what kind of life did you live in the Lan family in the past, have you forgotten it? It was not easy to jump out of the fire pit, why did you ...... I don't understand. β
"Mother, is what you just said true? Mother and father? So I also have a maternal grandfather? "It's hard for anyone to accept the relatives who suddenly appeared.
"Be careful, isn't it okay for us to go back to Fenyang City?" Xie Zifeng now felt more and more that he had no way to control the situation, and this sense of powerlessness made him very annoyed.
"You know there's no way I'm going back, at least not now!" Lan Xin understood what Xie Zifeng meant, but he just wanted to persuade Lan Xin to give up revenge, but in the face of the wrongs suffered by the original owner and the humiliation he suffered now, how could he just leave.
"Okay." Xie Zifeng also knew that it was useless for him to say more.
"I don't support or oppose it, but I must be your most solid backing." Xie Zifeng sighed, turned around and walked out of the house.
Lan Qinyang returned home, withdrew everyone, and was alone in the study, staring at the familiar amethyst necklace in his hand.
