Chapter 646: Aunt Fan's Identity
It's a pity that Xuan Shao's people couldn't find Aunt Fan in the end.
After Aunt Fan came out of Prince Zhuang's mansion, she went to an inconspicuous house outside the south gate of the city.
Outside the south gate of the city was formed more than 100 years ago when the capital expanded the city, it was originally a large paddy field, although it is now very different from more than 100 years ago, but it is not a prosperous place, fortunately, the houses here are cheap, so there are also some medium-sized families and tenants who live by renting houses.
As soon as Aunt Fan stepped into the courtyard door, a lady in her thirties dressed in indigo coarse cloth came out of the main room. ”
Aunt Fan smiled and helped the woman to get up, and said gently, "Get up, you don't have to be like this." ”
I didn't want the woman to be startled, she looked at Aunt Fan like a ghost, there was undisguised suspicion in her eyes, and after thinking about it, she said a word carefully, but the pronunciation was strange, not the original dialect.
Aunt Fan laughed, and Wen Sheng replied to her.
The woman looked at Aunt Fan's gaze but still didn't believe it.
Suddenly, Aunt Fan's face turned cold, and she glanced at the woman with some condescending pride, but there was a bit of flattery in her eyes: "Blue screen, you don't even recognize me now?" ”
The woman burst into tears of surprise: "It's really an adult-"
Aunt Fan looked helpless and was about to speak, but there was a sneer at the door.
When the two turned around, they saw a man in his thirties and forties, of medium stature, with a good face.
"It's just that in this rich nest in the capital, the rich family has been hiding under the wings of the rich family for so many years. I really think I'm the wife of an official family in a big family! The man's gaze swept over Aunt Fan, and his tone was very disdainful.
"Lan Ding, don't talk to adults like that!" The woman's slightly thick eyebrows were raised, and her originally peaceful appearance immediately became a little vicious.
The man called the blue dinger pouted. glanced at Aunt Fan.
Aunt Fan smiled: "I haven't seen you for many years, and your unlikable problem as soon as you open your mouth still hasn't changed." It's also a shame that the blue screen can endure you for so many years. Presumably she is your sister, so you have to put up with it. Others don't have such a good temper, you deserve to have been in the Central Plains for so many years, and you haven't even married a daughter-in-law! Although the tone was mild, the meaning of the words was very mean, which was very different from the gentle and polite Aunt Fan on weekdays.
The man walked over, glanced at Aunt Fan a few times, and sneered: "I'm not anyone's eye, don't you still use your hot face to stick to other people's cold butts." In the end, he didn't catch anything, but had to help the short-lived man watch the mother-in-law and children? ”
Aunt Fan's face turned cold, and she gave the man a slap with a wave of her hand, this chapter was very ruthless, and the man's face instantly became red and swollen. The corners of the mouth were also bumped with teeth.
"Who allowed you to mention him? Don't forget who you are! Aunt Fan's voice was cold.
The blue screen on the side was so frightened that his face was pale, and he knelt down as soon as his legs were weak.
Lan Ding spit out the blood foam in his mouth with a "phew", his tongue against his cheek, paused for a moment, but slowly knelt down, his slightly drooping eyes hid the pain in his eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "My lord, atonement." ”
Aunt Fan glanced at him coldly, turned her head to Lan Ping and said, "Get up." ”
Lan Ping glanced at Aunt Fan, and then at her brother. After all, he still didn't have the courage to intercede, and got up on his own.
Aunt Fan didn't look at Lan Ding who was kneeling on the ground, and only asked Lan Ping, "When are you leaving?" ”
Lan Ping bowed her head and said, "The Holy Maiden will come later, let's leave at night." As he spoke, Lan Ping glanced at Aunt Fan and said cautiously, "Are you going with us this time?" ”
Aunt Fan was stunned for a while. Then he said lightly: "It's not that you sent me a message that the people around the saint are dead, if I don't come out to protect people, my conscience will be eaten by dogs." When you die and go to hell, you won't have the face to face me, Abba and those ancestors who look like people and ghosts don't know the eighteenth generation? ”
Lan Ping immediately lowered her head and quietly glanced at Lan Ding, who was still kneeling, out of the corner of her eye.
Aunt Fan didn't chase after her, but asked, "Didn't you hide well before, didn't you miss it?" Leaving now? Are you really willing to give up the splendid prosperity of this capital? ”
Lan Ping knew that Aunt Fan was talking about the Holy Maiden, and hurriedly said: "We heard that someone found out about the fact that you brought the Holy Maiden into Beijing back then, and the people from Prince Li's Mansion almost found out about the Holy Maiden a few days ago." Fortunately, after so many years, the clues have been broken, and you asked for it again...... asked the nobles for help, so in the end, there was no danger. But we don't dare risk the lives of the saints. ”
Aunt Fan nodded: "Yes." Then he looked around and went straight to the main room.
Lan Ping glanced at his younger brother, who was still kneeling, shook his head and sighed, and immediately followed behind Aunt Fan.
Entering the house, Aunt Fan sat down on the very neat-looking kang, and Lan Ping hurriedly went to pour her tea.
Aunt Fan took it and took a sip.
Lan Ping took the opportunity to intercede: "My lord, you know that Lan Ding is the kind of open-mouthed character, please don't worry about him." He, he actually cares about your safety, but his mouth is too cheap. ”
Aunt Fan let out a faint "um" and was noncommittal.
Lan Ping glanced at Aunt Fan, not knowing what to say.
Aunt Fan said suddenly: "You also think I'm cheap?" ”
Lan Ping was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand: "No, no, no, Lan Ping has no such intention." ”
Aunt Fan smiled: "Actually, he was not wrong, I rushed to the door by myself." He never took me seriously, and finally asked me to take care of the person I hated the most! ”
Speaking of this, Aunt Fan glanced at the blue screen, with some playfulness: "But I haven't made her feel better, I've been a thorn in her psychology all these years." Especially when I first entered the house. Hum! I'm not happy, and I won't let her have a good time! “
Lan Ping hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, anyone who offends your adults will not end well." “
Aunt Fan was silent.
Lan Ping was a little apprehensive when she saw it, and she didn't know if she had said something wrong, but Aunt Fan waved her hand a little dejectedly: "Go and let him get up, what should you do!" ”
Lan Ping breathed a sigh of relief and stepped back.
Aunt Fan sat on the edge of the kang, looking up at the ceiling in a daze.
In Prince Zhuang's mansion, when Sanniang sent someone to find Aunt Fan before, she ordered her not to make a noise, and even the maids and mothers-in-law in Aunt Fan's yard had instructed her.
Later, Sanniang could only say that Aunt Fan had gone to visit her sick aunt in Zhuangzi.
Of course, the Jiang family and the old princess couldn't hide it.
The old princess was surprised when she heard the news, she really couldn't figure out how Aunt Fan could just leave, obviously she was fine the day before.
Sanniang and Xuanshao also took the child to Jiang's place. But I saw Jiang Shi sitting alone under the lamp, holding a pair of lotus blue embroidered shoes in his hand and looking at them carefully. Although her back is still straight, there is always a lingering sense of loneliness when she looks at it in the dim light.
Looking up and seeing Sanniang and the three of them coming in, Jiang Shi hurriedly put down the things in his hand: "Still no news from her?" ”
Xuan Shao nodded.
Jiang Shi frowned and sighed: "Where else can she go?" ”
Xuan Xiao tilted his head and looked at Jiang for a while, and suddenly reached out to her to let her hug, Jiang was afraid that he would fall and hurriedly caught him.
Xuan Xiaoyi pouted and kissed Jiang on the cheek, and then looked at her with wide eyes.
Jiang was stunned, but Sanniang laughed "poof".
Seeing Jiang Shi coming over, Sanniang coughed lightly and said, "He thought that if he kissed him, others would laugh." ”
Jiang couldn't help but smile when he looked at Xuan Xiaoyi's expectant appearance, and Xuan Xiaoyi squinted his eyes.
Sanniang took him from Jiang's hand and handed it to Xuan Shao: "Little one, grandmother has no strength, she will get tired after holding you for a long time, are you okay with your father?" ”
Xuan Xiaoyi hugged his father's neck, and then pointed to the courtyard outside.
Sanniangdao knew that he missed the flowers and plants outside, so he asked Xuan Shao to take him out for a walk.
The father and son went out, and Xuan Xiaoyi's happy laughter could be heard from afar, and the child was always easily satisfied.
Sanniang sat down with Jiang, glanced at the embroidered shoes that Jiang had held in her hand before, and saw that the embroidery on top was very exquisite, so she asked, "This is what Aunt Fan made for you?" ”
Jiang nodded and smiled: "She is skillful, she can learn anything." ”
Sanniang heard this, but her heart moved: "Learn? Wouldn't she have before? ”
Jiang Shi was a little surprised: "You don't know? ”
Sanniang shook her head: "I didn't ask, and Xianggong didn't say much about Aunt Fan." ”
Jiang Shi thought about it when he heard this, shook his head and smiled: "Shao'er, he has never mentioned his father's affairs, but if you ask him, he will definitely tell you." ”
Sanniang was actually afraid of any secrets involving the elders, so she was embarrassed to ask. But I heard Jiang Shi say: "Aunt Fan, she is actually not from our house." ”
Sanniang was shocked when she heard this: "Mother, are you saying that she is not the maid who served the old princess before?" But how could no one see it? ”
Jiang shook his head: "She did serve by the old princess's side, but she was replaced when she was selected from Zhuangzi." But she's very smart, and she learns everything as soon as she learns. Originally, she didn't know anything about embroidery, and she didn't want to practice secretly for a few days, and there were few people in this house who could compare to her. The ones that serve people, she can also look at them, so there has never been a mistake. Even when your father-in-law was alive, he praised her for her talent and intelligence. ”
