Chapter 236: Snow Trails on Long Street
Chen Ying sighed and stopped talking.
She has nothing more to say.
Mingxin's past is legendary, and her father's high hopes for her back then finally made her an extremely ambitious person.
Chen Ying guessed that the reason why Mingxin was able to get in touch with political affairs from He Juncheng was that he was afraid that he would have to use some means, and the drama of adding fragrance to the red sleeves was also indispensable.
Chen Ying couldn't help but sigh.
Beneath this beautiful skin in front of him, there is an incomparably strong heart.
Such a woman, no matter where she goes, will live as she wants, and will always get everything she wants. And from this point of view, what Mingxin said about looking down on the position of the master mother is probably not the truth. If He Juncheng rises to a certain high position, she should be willing to commit to him.
You will always choose the path that is most beneficial to you, and you will do whatever it takes to achieve your goals. The politician's thick black science, this bright-hearted girl has learned everything from her father and brother.
For a second, Chen Ying had the idea of asking her to help establish a women's school, after all, such a capable and talented woman is very suitable for expanding the territory.
Eventually, though, she put the idea down.
Mingxin is too utilitarian and ambitious, but what Chen Ying needs is a doer.
The Tao is not the same, this is also suitable for Chen Ying and Mingxin.
Soon after ending the conversation with Mingxin, Chen Ying left Xiangyunzhai.
Guo Wan didn't come back.
Chen Ying waited for her for almost an hour, but Guo Wan seemed to be stumped by something, not only did she not return, but she also did not send someone back to deliver the letter.
If it weren't for believing in Guo Wan's ability, Chen Ying even wondered if something had happened to her.
When he stepped out of the hospital, he apologized vigorously, and repeatedly asked Chen Ying to wait, but Chen Ying didn't make a mistake.
She had promised Li to go back earlier, but now it was a little late, and if she returned too late, Li was afraid that she would have to worry again.
Fortunately, Guo Wan had already asked someone to prepare essential oils, so it was worth the trip if Chen Ying brought it to the Ni family.
Outside the door of the house, the snow is still falling, the snowflakes dance silently, the sky is like a curtain in the distance, the streets and alleys are few nearby, and the sky and the earth are empty.
Chen Ying took a deep breath.
The air on a snowy day is clear and cold, as if it has washed people's hearts and intestines clean.
Sitting in the carriage and listening to the horse's hooves "deed" knocking on the road, Chen Ying opened a corner of the curtain and looked out.
The snow is flying in the sky, giving the world an indescribable beauty, lonely and vast, like a fine brushwork.
The car slowly turned around the corner, and this was the end of the Xiamafang, and beyond that was Qixian Street.
At this moment, two green cars quietly appeared at the other end of the road.
Chen Ying's eyesight was excellent, and he recognized at a glance that the servant woman who was following the car next to one of the cars was the servant of the Han family.
Guo Wan is back.
Chen Ying opened her mouth and wanted to stop, but when she glanced at it again, her expression suddenly froze.
Next to the other green car, there were several men dressed as guards, two of whom she knew.
With a "snap", the curtain fell.
Chen Ying stepped back from the car window, and her heart jumped suddenly.
At this moment, the carriage had already turned onto Qixian Street, and the crisp sound of hooves hit the road, and the shallow hoof prints were soon buried by the heavy snow.
Guo Wan held Lu Yi's hand and stood beside the car to look back.
"What do you see grandma?" Midori asked, following her line of sight.
The long street is empty, few people, only the snow is overwhelming.
"It seems to be Miss Chen's carriage." Guo Wan said softly and coughed.
Lu Yi hurriedly gathered the white fox fur cloak on her body, and looked back without a trace.
"Tuk, tuk", on top of the other carriage, there were two very light knocks.
With this sound, the coachman immediately raised his whip, and the carriage passed them quickly, galloped through the gate of Xiangyunzhai, and went far away in a moment.
Guo Wan raised her hand and helped the hood on her head.
The spring onion-like fingers, contrasting with the white fox fur on the neck, make it impossible to tell which of the two is whiter and greasy.
Lu Yi looked a little stupid from the side, and sighed in his heart.
The color of their grandmother is really rare in the world, but the noble person has an extraordinary background, and I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
Her heart tightened, threw away these useless emotions, and helped Guo Wan step onto the stone steps.
Soon, there was no trace of cars and horses in front of the door of Xiangyun Zhai, but the heavy snow kept falling, as if it was endless, and there was no end to it......
In the sixteenth year of Yuanjia, the spring in Jinan came a little early. Before February arrived, a few new leaves bloomed on the pear trees in the courtyard.
Chen Ying stood under the tree, looking up at the green and fluffy leaf buds lining the clear sky overhead, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Girl, General Lang has arrived." Mother Luo walked over quietly and said softly.
Chen Ying turned his head to look and saw that a bright red python robe was revealed by the door of the Moon Cave, which had only been half white-powdered.
"Invite him in." She smiled at Mother Luo, casually flicked her shoulder, and said, "Mom just walked under the porch outside?" There was a lot of ash on his body. ”
Luo's mother hurriedly looked down, and saw that there was white ash on her shoulders and skirt, so she quickly took out a handkerchief and dusted it, and said helplessly: "The slave and maid have said, this house can be messed up before it is built, it is gray, and the girl does not listen, but fortunately the girl did not follow the slave and maid out, or the newly cut clothes will be dirty again." ”
Chen Ying smiled and listened to her complaints, and when she was finished, Fang asked, "What about Mother?" Isn't it still a matter of looking at the house later? ”
The helplessness on Luo's mother's face added another layer, and she nodded: "Isn't it?" Madame didn't say it at first, but now it's good, I'm going to follow the girl every now and then, and now I'm asking the little girl to clean up the house. ”
When Chen Ying heard this, she felt a little happy in her heart, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, I had the foresight to leave a yard to live in advance. This place is beautiful, and there are honest farmers near the left, and my mother will be bored living in the city in the future, so I can come here to live for a few days, and it can be regarded as my daughter who built a courtyard for her mother. ”
Mother Luo laughed when she said this, and said with emotion: "The girl is really thoughtful, Madame doesn't say it, let alone how happy she is in her heart." ”
The Li family now lives in the prefect's mansion, in the final analysis, it is not the real maiden home, and now Chen Ying has set up a courtyard in this Quancheng girls' school to live by herself, which can be regarded as allowing the Li family to have a foothold, in case it is inconvenient for the mother and son to continue to stay in the official residence one day, this huge Jinan Mansion, they will not have nowhere to go.
