Zheng looked at Ye Qinglan coldly: "Didn't you say you had something to tell me? Why didn't you say it again?"
Ye Qinglan made an unexpected move. She suddenly knelt down in front of Mrs. Zheng: "I did something wrong unintentionally, please forgive me."
A person must be able to bend and stretch. Now her opponent has an absolute advantage, so she can only show weakness. No matter what, she has to pass Zheng's test today. Otherwise, don't think about continuing to stick to the big tree like Ye Qingning in the future.
.
Zheng was not moved at all, she still had a cold expression on her face: "What wrong did you do? You might as well tell me."
Ye Qinglan responded in a low voice: "I shouldn't act recklessly and encourage Sixth Sister and Cousin Gu to meet in private."
"You're not only encouraging," Mrs. Zheng sneered, "you're also guiding people through it and arranging the time and place. I underestimated you in the past, but I didn't expect you to have such ability." The more I thought about it, the more angry I felt in my heart.
, slamming the table hard: "Have you ever thought about whether Ning'er will lose her reputation as a best friend once this matter is discovered? Who should be blamed if this affects her marriage?"
Ye Qinglan lowered her head and accepted the scolding obediently.
Mrs. Zheng was still upset and said: "I thought you were an honest and peaceful person, but I didn't expect you to be so courageous. You even led Ning'er to bad things. Although she is usually cold-tempered and arrogant, she is also a cool-tempered person.
The well-behaved young lady actually dared to have a private meeting with a man this time, and you did a lot of hard work behind the scenes..."
In the eyes of a mother, even if her daughter is at fault, it must be because of other people's inducement. The more Zheng talked about it, the more she felt that it was all Ye Qinglan's fault.
Ye Qinglan did not argue and let Zheng scold her. After Zheng's dry mouth and anger had subsided, she opened her mouth and said: "Everything is my fault. Please calm down, aunt, and don't get so angry.
"
Zheng snorted coldly, but there was still anger in her eyes. However, she finally started to feel in the mood to listen to Ye Qinglan: "What is going on? Tell it from beginning to end. Don't hide even a word."
Ye Qinglan responded in a low voice.
Listening to these words, Ye Qingning obviously refused to tell the truth. He also didn't confess her. Finally, he showed some loyalty.
"This matter started when my grandfather celebrated his birthday a few days ago." Ye Qinglan raised her head, her eyes were clear and sincere: "At that time, cousin Gu and cousin Xiyu also came. I followed the sixth sister to see them. At that time,
I noticed that Sixth Sister is more concerned about Cousin Gu."
Ye Qinglan's words were unusually reserved, and it was impossible for Mrs. Zheng not to hear them. Her face sank slightly, and a trace of undisputed anger flashed in her eyes: "Didn't she tell you that she was already engaged to Jun Yan?"
Ye Qinglan responded quickly: "Sixth sister did say this. I saw that she seemed to be in a bad mood, so I comforted her a few words. But her mood became even lower. Later, I came up with this idea. I originally
I thought that as long as she met Cousin Gu in private and said everything on her mind, she would no longer have any regrets..."
"According to what you say, you are doing this for her own good?" Mrs. Zheng smiled half-heartedly. Apparently she was not moved by these words.
Ye Qinglan raised her eyes and looked back, and said softly: "Auntie probably won't listen to what I said, and she will think that I am justifying my own mistakes. But that's what I really think in my heart. I want to do it for Sixth Sister.
I want her to fulfill her dreams and live a happy life..."
Zheng interrupted Ye Qinglan coldly: "What can I do if I meet Xinian? He has always been pretending to be Shen Qiuyu in his heart. He can't tolerate other women at all. If he really has a slight affection for Ning'er, I won't either Stop Ning'er from seeing him." But the fact is obvious. Gu Xinian has no feelings for Ye Qingning at all, so sending him to his door like this is simply humiliating himself.
"Auntie is really thoughtful." Ye Qinglan agreed obediently: "Actually, I have thought about these things. But I felt at the time that even so, the Sixth Sister should be allowed to see Cousin Gu alone. Even if she is caught by Cousin Gu. A ruthless rejection is better than thinking about him all the time." This argument is really bold.
Mrs. Zheng never expected that Ye Qinglan would say this, and she couldn't help but be stunned. But when she thought about it more carefully, she began to feel that these words were not unreasonable...
"Sixth Sister and Cousin Zheng grew up together as their childhood sweethearts, and they do have some feelings for each other. But this kind of feeling is different from the feeling of admiring a man." Ye Qinglan said calmly: "If Sixth Sister is like this After marrying Cousin Zheng, I can’t help but feel a little regretful when I think about this incident in the future. It will also affect the relationship between the couple. Therefore, I suggested that the sixth sister go to see Cousin Gu. Even if she is sad, she can settle the matter. It’s my worry, I’ll stop thinking about it in the future. But, I didn’t expect that things would turn out the way they did. Everything is my fault, so please punish me!”
As he spoke, he knelt down deeply.
Zheng looked intently at the delicate girl kneeling in front of her, feeling mixed and complicated in her heart.
After guessing that Ye Qinglan was involved in this matter, she was extremely angry. She almost directed most of her resentment towards Ye Qinglan. Therefore, just now she deliberately made things difficult for her and vented the bad breath in her heart.
But now the anger has gradually subsided, and reason has finally returned. What benefit can this matter have to Ye Qinglan from beginning to end? Why would she do such a thankless thing? In the final analysis, it is just an impulse and confusion...
"Get up!" Mrs. Zheng suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Aren't you tired of talking on your knees?"
Ye Qinglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After talking for a long time, she finally saw some results.
After standing up, Ye Qinglan realized that she had been kneeling for too long and her knees were numb and painful. But in front of Mrs. Zheng, she could not show any signs of it and still stood respectfully aside.
After a long while, Ms. Zheng said calmly: "Okay, this matter has passed, and there is no need to mention it again in the future. I will temporarily forgive you this time, but remember not to make an example!"
Ye Qinglan responded: "I will follow Auntie's teachings. This time it's all my fault. I will never dare to do it again." After a pause, he asked cautiously: "Auntie, can I still go to Sixth Sister?"
Zheng responded casually: "Of course."
Ye Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of joy on her face: "That's great, thank you so much, auntie. I thought auntie was angry and would never let me be with Sixth Sister again!"
Zheng was noncommittal. She did have this idea at first, but now she has changed her mind. Although Ye Qinglan acted inappropriately, her starting point was for Ning'er. No wonder Ning'er was facing her like this and refused to admit it no matter how hard she pressed. This matter is related to Ye Qinglan.
Anyway, this matter is in the past, let’s just let it go completely!
Anyway, Ye Qinglan is right under her nose, so she doesn’t dare to play any tricks...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zheng calmed down a lot, and finally had the mood to ask Ye Qinglan about her life in Dingguo Palace: "By the way, someone from Dingguo Palace sent a letter before, saying that you would stay longer. Why are you today?
You came back suddenly?” I didn’t even say hello before, but I came back suddenly. It always seemed like something was wrong.
Ye Qinglan responded with a smile: "My aunt would like to keep me here a little longer, but I have been harassing her for so long and I am really embarrassed to continue living there. I am still thinking about my eldest aunt and sixth sister, so I came back."
This rhetoric is admirable, but there is really nothing wrong with it.
Mrs. Zheng knew that there must be something else going on, but she didn't ask any further questions. After a few gentle words of advice, she served tea to see the guests off.
After Ye Qinglan came out of Luomeiyuan, her back was greasy and she was already covered in cold sweat. If she didn't respond well just now, she would lose her biggest supporter in Uncle Changyuan's Mansion from now on.
Fortunately, she dealt with it properly and kept a low profile, and finally passed Zheng's test.
Seeing that her face was a little pale, Ruixue asked in a worried voice: "Miss, are you okay now?" She and the other maids were waiting outside the door just now, and had no idea what was going on in the room. It's hard to imagine that.
I know that Mrs. Zheng will never give the lady a good look.
Ye Qinglan calmed down and responded calmly: "It's nothing, I'm fine, don't worry. It's not late yet, I'm going to Huancui Pavilion to talk to Sixth Sister. You don't have to follow me, Ying'er can just wait for me.
.”
Ying'er obediently agreed, and Ruixue had to lead Guiyuan and Hongluan back to Hefengyuan first.
Soon we arrived at Huancui Pavilion. The little maid guarding the door was very familiar with Ying'er. When she saw Ying'er knocking on the door, she immediately smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for so many days, but you are finally willing to come back."
Ying'er winked at the little maid repeatedly. Then the little maid noticed that Ye Qinglan was at the door and stepped forward with a smile to salute. Ye Qinglan smiled and said, "Go and report to Sixth Sister and say it's me."
The little maid ran away. After a while, the little maid ran back again. There was a graceful figure behind her. It was Ye Qingning who came out personally.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Ye Qingning seemed to have lost some weight, and was far less bright than before. However, his expression was still peaceful.
The two reunited after a long absence, and naturally they had some intimacy when they met.
Ye Qinglan smiled and joked: "Sixth Sister came out to greet me in person. I'm really flattered."
Ye Qingning pursed her lips and smiled, holding Ye Qinglan's hand affectionately, looking up and down: "Let me take a look quickly, I haven't seen you for a few days, you have gained some weight, and your complexion is much better than before. It seems that you are here
Things are going well in Duke Dingguo's mansion. Your aunt and cousin Xiyu are treating you well, right?"
Ye Qinglan responded with a smile: "Well, they were all very kind to me. I ate well there, wore good clothes, slept soundly, and gained weight. If I hadn't missed you, I wouldn't have been able to come back!"
"
Ye Qingning was amused and held Ye Qinglan's hand and walked inside. The two chatted casually while walking, but they had a tacit understanding and did not mention Gu Xinian's name.
