Chapter 43: The Orphan Girl
"I'll just ask, come and drink tea." Jiang Yuntang pretended to answer his question casually.
"Alright then, thanks." Qin Mian responded.
As he spoke, he took the tea handed over by Jiang Yuntang, and then lowered his head and took a sip.
By the way, he hid the coldness in his eyes, and raised his head again and returned to the appearance of a hanging child.
On the side, Jiang Jingyun quietly watched their temptation to come and go, and couldn't help but sigh at her second brother's defensiveness.
Although there was nothing wrong with him doing so.
But it still more or less affected what Jiang Jingyun wanted to do next.
Thinking of Jiang Jingyun, she sighed slightly, hoping that when she would inquire about things with Qin Mian, the other party would be able to cooperate well.
After Qin Mian had eaten and drunk enough, Jiang Jingyun looked at him and asked, "What, since you have already eaten, can you answer me some questions next?" ”
"What do you want to know?" Qin Mian's expression was unexpected, looking at her and asking rhetorically.
Jiang Jingyun was slightly flustered, thought about it and said, "It's just about the situation on Qingluan Mountain, didn't you be imprisoned with those people at that time?" ”
"yes." Qin Mian nodded, and asked again, "Do you want to ask about the situation among those people who are locked up with me?" ”
"Clever." Jiang Jingyun praised him, and then said: "I want to ask you, do you know that there was a little girl who was locked up with you at the time, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she looked quite good-looking." ”
"You said her." Qin Mian chuckled smugly: "Of course I know. ”
Jiang Jingyun instantly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and then asked, "Then do you know what her name is, or what her origin is?" ”
"Her name is Fang Yaman, she seems to be an orphan girl with no relatives and no reason, she lost her parents not long ago, and she planned to go to the Fuzhou Mansion to join her relatives, but she walked halfway to Qingluan Mountain and was robbed, which is quite pitiful." Qin Mian casually answered Jiang Jingyun's question.
Jiang Jingyun nodded after listening: "So that's the case." ”
Fang Yaman, this is the name of the heroine in the original book.
It seems that her previous guess was correct, so it seems that it is also fate for Xie Feiran to meet her and get along with her.
But even so, Jiang Jingyun was still inexplicably sad when she realized this.
Qin Mian noticed this, remembered the scene he saw in the cottage before, and couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Such a man is not worthy of Miss Jiang's sadness for him." ”
"What did you say?" Jiang Jingyun was shocked by his words, and immediately denied it: "I didn't feel sad for him." ”
Xie Feiran, who he likes and likes, it's none of her business!
Hearing this, Qin Mian looked at her quietly for a moment, then shook his head with a low chuckle.
Jiang Jingyun didn't notice his reaction, but was still immersed in her emotions.
After a while, she came back to her senses and said, "Anyway, thank you very much." ”
Fortunately, Qin Mian knew about the girl's situation, otherwise she wouldn't know how much energy it would take to inquire.
Now that she understands the situation, Jiang Jingyun can be regarded as knowing it.
According to the development of the follow-up plot of the original book in his memory, Xie Feiran will most likely take in the homeless Fang Yaman.
Let her stay at Xie's house temporarily.
Then it was logical that she and Xie Feiran fell in love with each other for a long time.
It's just that even so, she still doesn't worry about the two children and the old man.
I don't know how they are now, and whether they accepted her after the heroine appeared.
Did it affect them in any way. After thinking about it, she decided to take the time to go back and have a look.
——
A few days later, at the Xie family, Fang Yaman was standing in the originally empty courtyard.
She was dressed in shabby clothes, and her expression looked a little overwhelmed, and it wasn't until Xie Feiran came out of the house not long ago that she hurriedly stepped forward.
It's just that before she said anything, Xie Feiran said to her: "Miss Fang, you can live here for the time being, I asked around, and there is no other place to settle you at present." ”
"Alright then, thank you, sir." Fang Yaman breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Xie Feiran apologetically and said, "It's just that this is your home after all, and it's still causing you trouble." ”
Xie Feiran waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm busy with official business on weekdays, and I won't be at home often, and there is only one old man and two children at home." ”
He is a man after all, so it is better to avoid suspicion and stay away from her on weekdays.
It can be regarded as reassuring her.
"I see." Fang Yaman nodded slightly.
At the same time, she also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that since this Lord Xie helped her so much, at least she could help him take care of the elderly and children at home while he was away.
While the two were talking, Xie Feng and Xie Liu quietly poked their heads out of the house to peek.
After watching it for a long time, Xie Liu asked in an uneasy tone and trembling voice: "Daddy, doesn't you want a mother, and you plan to marry this woman?" ”
"It depends on whether she's worthy or not." Xie Feng stared at the woman in the courtyard and sneered.
It's a big deal to find a way to get rid of her.
Xie Liu pursed his lips when he heard this, his brother also had this attitude when his mother first came.
Speaking of which, she hasn't seen her mother for a long time......
Thinking about Xie Liu, he was a little aggrieved.
While the two of them were talking, Fang Yaman saw them and took the initiative to come over and talk to them.
Xie Feiran called them out, bent down and rubbed Xie Feng and Xie Liu's heads, and then introduced them to Fang Yaman.
The atmosphere between several people is alienated but harmonious.
At the same time, a figure outside the courtyard suddenly stopped.
Jiang Jingyun happened to see this scene, and stood not far from the courtyard for a while, with a somewhat complicated expression.
After a while, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, what did she have to worry about, Fang Yaman was the heroine after all, she would definitely be very good to the children, and what a harmonious family this looked like.
Originally, she wanted to come up and say hello, but now that she thinks about it, she still doesn't need to.
I will only seem superfluous in the past now.
Thinking about it, Jiang Jingyun simply turned around and left.
While Xie Feiran in the courtyard was talking to Fang Yaman, his eyes inadvertently glanced in the direction where Jiang Jingyun was, and then he suddenly paused.
"What's wrong?" Fang Yaman looked at him a little strangely and asked.
Xie Feiran shook his head: "It's nothing, I have something to do when I go out, Miss Fang, you can go into the room to rest, the room in the wing room is ready." ”
"Uh, okay." Fang Ya replied.
Then he saw Xie Feiran leave in a hurry.
Her eyes were still a little puzzled, but just as she was stunned, Xie Liu suddenly tugged at her sleeve.
"What's wrong?" Fang Yaman looked at her with gentle eyes and asked.
Xie Liu raised his head and said in a pitiful tone: "You...... Are you here to replace my mother? ”
"Your mother?" Fang Yaman raised her eyebrows slightly, then squatted down and looked at her curiously: "Can you tell me, who is your mother?" ”
