Chapter 108: Returning to the Rightful Owner
Hua Xiyan still remembers the first time he saw Lianxin, it was still in Rongzhou. This maid and the shopkeeper of Jin Yutang quarreled over a fake. In the blink of an eye, only a few months have passed, and she and this maid have met from Pingshui and lived under the same roof.
Lianxin was wearing a winter coat with a circle of gray mouse hair at the neckline, which lined her pale little face with great beauty. She walked to the door, saluted Huaxi Yan, and said crisply: "My county lord invites the second lady over!" ”
"Oh? Sister-in-law is back? ”
Lian Xin smiled and replied respectfully: "The county lord came back in the afternoon, got some things, and wanted to give them to the second miss, so he sent the slave maid to invite the young lady." ”
Coming back in the afternoon? It must also be because of Wang Qi's matter. Thinking like this, Hua Xiyan didn't care about what Lu Yuan was going to give him, but nodded at Lianxin: "Then let's go over." ”
Wen Xia brought a stove for Hua Xiyan, and held an umbrella, and then followed Hua Xiyan outside.
When passing by the courtyard, Hua Xiyan saw that the west wing was full of darkness, and his footsteps were stunned.
For more than a month, that room was lit up every day, and she used to recite poems and play tea with the man in that room. The two of them laughed and laughed, and they were happy. Suddenly, the place that seemed to be able to block all the wind and rain and bring endless warmth was so dark and blind, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
Wen Xia didn't speak, but just held an umbrella to block the heavy snow for Huaxi Yan, and when she saw her calm eyes condensed in the direction of the west, she knew that Miss must have thought of Yun Gongzi.
The hot breath she exhaled condensed into a white mist in the air, and some fell on her eyelashes, forming fine ice crystals that lined her eyes with brilliance and water. I don't know if it's remorse, or helplessness, or it's full of worries that I can't figure out.
Hua Xiyan saw that Lianxin stopped not far away, waiting for herself, and knew that she couldn't lose her posture in front of Lianxin, so she withdrew her gaze and greeted Xia Qian: "Let's go." ”
The snow on the road was constantly being swept by servants, but there were still some who had not had time to sweep it, and they creaked when they stepped on it, which was very harsh in this silent garden.
At that time, Lu Yuan was talking with Xiao Yerong in the house, and when they heard movement in the courtyard, they saw a group of people coming slowly.
The woman behind the lotus heart was hidden in a snow-white fox fur cloak, and the black hair on her head was curled into a slanted cloud bun, with a few glazed white plums on her hairpin. A jade-inlaid gold step on the side of her ear swayed on one side, and the pearlescent light flowed, swaying with her steps, but the light was still a little dim compared to her bright eyes as bright as stars.
"Just looking at it, I thought it was a man in the painting coming towards me!" As soon as Lu Yuan saw Hua Xiyan coming in, he couldn't help but quip.
Hua Xiyan saluted, then took off the cloak on his body, and replied with a light smile: "Sister-in-law likes to tease me, which person in the painting is like me?" ”
"That's right." Lu Yuan nodded sincerely, "I haven't seen a person in the painting so delicate!" ”
Hua Xiyan was a little speechless, sat down in the position next to Xiao Yerong, and said: "It's snowing heavily in the middle of the night, if my sister-in-law called me here to tease me, I would have to leave." ”’
"Hey, don't, I haven't given you anything yet, how can I go!" Lu Yuan hurriedly spoke up, for fear that Huaxi Yan would come to the truth.
Hua Xiyan was silent, waiting to see what Lu Yuan was going to hand over to him.
Lu Kite's other personal maidservant Tang Rui took a few boxes and put them on the table, Lu Yuan pursed her lips and smiled, opened the boxes, and the colorful light burst out in an instant, illuminating the room a little brighter.
Looking at those things, Hua Xiyan breathed a sigh of disbelief, and there was a look of disbelief in his eyes.
Lu Yuan smiled: "Sister, do you still remember these things?" ”
These are all familiar old things, Hua Xiyan naturally remembers, but he can't think of it...... I can still get it back.
"These things are the dowry of my young lady, where did the eldest young lady find it?" Ask Xia is not as good as Hua Xiyan's concentration, and now when he sees these things, he has long covered his lips and exhaled softly.
Tang Rui stepped forward, smiled gently, and replied for her master: "I don't know if the second miss still remembers that in Shengzhou, my county lord bought a fake in Jinyutang?" ”
Hua Xiyan nodded.
"After that incident, the county lord of my family sent someone to investigate the Jinyutang, and found that there were a lot of fakes in it, and the master of the Jinyutang, the prefect of Shengzhou, also looted a lot of people's fat and people's ointment. Later, when he learned that the prefect of Shengzhou was accused, the master also handed over the complaint he had investigated, adding one more charge to the wicked man. Not long ago, the county lord accidentally discovered that this Golden Jade Hall also had branches in other places, so he ran that branch together. As a result, these things were found in that branch, and I knew that they belonged to the second miss, so I returned them to the second miss. ”
I see! Hua Xiyan still thought that it was too easy to deal with Governor Sun's mansion at the beginning, it turned out that not only Yun Qi helped him, but even Lu Yuan also made a lot of efforts. She remembered that she had thought about using Lu Yuan's hand to deal with the Sun family. And in the end, the result is also the same.
After Jin Yutang was confiscated, a lot of things were indeed found, and some were also found in the Sun Mansion, but some were not found anyway, and it turned out to be somewhere else.
"How does my sister-in-law know that these things are mine?"
"There's a list in one of the boxes where these things come from." Lianxin said, took out the list from the compartment of a box and handed it to Hua Xiyan, "Well, Second Miss, please take a look." ”
Hua Xiyan saw that it was the IOU written by Sun Muyang when he asked him for these things!
After many years, the paper has been faintly yellowed, but the handwriting on it is still clear. Hua Xiyan could see his name written on the neat little seal, as if through that word, he could see that the woman was serious, wholeheartedly, and without regrets.
"It's okay now, the things are returned to their original owners, such a valuable thing, the second sister should be optimistic!" Lu Yuan closed the boxes, pushed them in front of Hua Xiyan, and advised.
Rao is the county lord of her Fanyang Lu clan, and she can't help but sigh when she sees those things. It is not an exaggeration to say that these jewels are worth a lot of money, and Hua Xiyan took them out so happily and gave them to others, which shows that they are very affectionate.
"I save it, thank you sister-in-law!"
"Sister-in-law's gift is precious, in comparison, I haven't given my sister anything!" Xiao Yerong, who had not spoken, spoke slowly, and her slightly hoarse voice had a unique style in this silent night.
"What is the second sister-in-law talking about, now my sister sleeps at night, but thanks to the second sister-in-law!" Hua Xiyan later learned that the warm jade bed that Mrs. Wang sent to her was Xiao Yerong's dowry. After Xiao Yerong heard that she was not in good health, she took out the warm jade bed without saying a word, it was this refreshment, and Hua Xiyan felt that she could not repay it.
Xiao Yerong pursed her lips and smiled, and was about to say something more, but was preempted by Lu Yuan: "The second brother will be back in a few days, you have to hurry up and have a child, this is a great gift to our palace!" ”
Being teased like this, Xiao Yerong's face turned red all of a sudden, her gentle face was like the red glow on the horizon of the morning dew, knowing the neck from her cheeks, hidden in the brocade clothes, and there was a tendency to be uncontrollable.
Wang Huan leads troops all year round, and most of the time of the year Xiao Yerong is alone in the palace, the days are empty and lonely, if there is really a child, it will really be much better.
Thinking like this, when she looked at Xiao Yerong, she really saw a trace of loneliness in her eyes.
At this time, Wang Qingyu's shout suddenly came from the courtyard: "Mother, mother, the eldest aunt is here!" ”
Wang Qingyu was playing in the snow with his subordinates, and when he saw Wang Lan coming, he threw the snowball in his hand and threw it towards Wang Lan. Wang Lan didn't mind, and let his ** little hand hold his clean Luo skirt.
Wang Lan saw that several people were there, and as soon as she came in, she was not polite, and she said: "What the hell is going on with the third brother?" ”
"Don't worry, sit down first!" Lu Yuan said, beckoning Lianxin to warm up Wang Lan with tea.
"As soon as I returned to the house, I didn't see anything clearly, and the third brother stabbed me with a sword, if I hadn't hid quickly, I'm afraid I would have to give my life there today!" Wang Lan said, showing her stabbed cuffs like everyone else, supporting her words.
Hua Xiyan saw that the cotton inside the cuffs was exposed, and he knew that the battle just now must be extremely dangerous, or Wang Qi was extremely angry.
"No one can accept this happening, especially when the third brother was seriously ill, Miss Wen took care of her so untiedly." Xiao Yerong patted Wang Lan's hand soothingly, "Don't be like your third brother, he is the most uncomfortable now." ”
Hearing this, Hua Xiyan couldn't help but think of what Wang Qi and himself said in the afternoon. On one side is Yun Qi's brother, and on the other side is Wang Qi, she is really entangled in her heart. Thinking like this, it suddenly occurred to me that Yun Qi was probably going to have a lot of entanglements now.
Thinking of this, the already faint smile on Hua Xiyan's face became a little lighter.
"I understand the third brother." Wang Lan said thoughtfully, her heroic eyebrows furrowed slightly, showing an extremely tangled arc, "When I just came back, I saw that something seemed to happen in the Wen Mansion. ”
"What's the situation?"
"I don't know the specifics, I just thought it was very strange when I passed by the Wen Mansion. The gates of the Wen Mansion were closed, and it seemed that the defense had been much heavier. ”
Wen Mansion is doing business, and there has always been an endless stream of guests, and it is impossible to close the door and refuse guests, so it seems that there is only one reason, and that is Wen Lin.
Moreover, the protection of the Wen Mansion is aggravated, and it is really not easy for Wang Qi to explore the wind. Hua Xiyan also experienced this feeling of being anxious but unable to do anything, and couldn't help but understand Wang Qi's anger a little more.
"In this case, we have to go to the Wen Mansion to find out the situation." Hua Xiyan opened his mouth and said, even if he didn't know anything else, he had to know what Wen Lin's current situation was.
"The Wen family is now afraid that the defense of the Wang family is like the defense of wolves, how can we go?" Lu Yuan frowned and rejected Hua Xiyan's idea.
"Naturally, it's not us going." Hua Xiyan slowly spoke, his clear eyes shining like stars, as if he could illuminate the darkness in people's hearts, "I have the right person." (The Poisonous Concubine of the Cold Gate of the Prosperous Age.) /26/26509/)--
