If the person kneeling in front of Jiang was Ye Qingning, Zheng would have stepped forward to confront Jiang without hesitation. But as for Ye Qinglan, Zheng would naturally have to think carefully.
In the matter of taking concubines, Mr. Jiang was disgraced, and naturally he felt unhappy. He was holding back his energy to find the eldest wife. He just had an attack on Cui Jing, and now he is targeting Ye Qinglan. Wait until Mr. Jiang will
After this fire energy breaks out, at least there will be a peaceful and peaceful life for a while.
Forget it, let Ye Qinglan suffer a little injustice for the time being!
Zheng kept thinking in her mind and naturally remained silent.
Ye Qinglan became distracted while kneeling. Jiang's "combat power" was indeed astonishing. A rough calculation, starting from the concierge's boy's report, it would have taken at least one cup of tea by now. Just listen to Jiang's non-stop chatter
He was scolded and scolded, but not a word was repeated.
Such a powerful and high-level house-fighting master, who also occupies the identity of mother-in-law, can't even get favors from Zheng. This only shows that Zheng is also a powerful character. It's not just as simple as relying on her powerful mother-in-law...
Jiang's temper was finally over, and she felt her mouth was dry. The maid Xiang Ling obediently brought a cup of tea to her, and Jiang took a sip. The refreshing aroma of tea spread in his mouth, and his whole body
My mood improved a lot. Looking at Ye Qinglan who was kneeling honestly, she suddenly didn't feel so unpleasant anymore.
"Okay, get up!" Jiang took another sip of tea and said calmly: "This is the last time, and it won't happen again."
Ye Qinglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, respectfully answered yes, and then stood up.
She had been kneeling for much longer than Cui Jing, and her legs were sore and weak. When she stood up, she took a step and almost fell. Fortunately, Ye Qingning caught her in time.
"Ten sister, be careful." Ye Qingning reminded in a low voice, her eyes full of apologies. If she had stood up and defended the tenth sister just now, the tenth sister would not have been kneeling and being scolded.
Ye Qinglan saw Ye Qingning's guilt and smiled reassuringly at her. She was going to get scolded anyway, so why did the two of them get scolded together? Besides, Ye Qingning had clearly made a move just now, but was suppressed by Zheng.
Mrs. Zheng coughed and finally spoke: "Sister Lan did not act appropriately this time. However, since I have agreed, the carriage from Duke Dingguo's Mansion has also arrived. I'd better let Sister Lan go there!"
It would be really ugly if Jiang deliberately left the carriage of Duke Dingguo hanging there. When she saw her sister in the future, how could she have the face to say anything?
Jiang glanced at Zheng with a half-smile: "I'm not that unreasonable person, and I won't do anything rude. Okay, Sister Lan, go back and get your luggage now! I'll do it too.
We’re tired. You all should retreat!”
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They managed to get through this difficult morning!
As soon as he left Changhe Hall, Ye Qingning whispered: "Ten sisters, I'm sorry, I just..."
"Okay, Sixth Sister, I'm fine now!" Ye Qinglan smiled easily and calmly: "Don't mention this. I will leave in a moment. I don't know how many days I will stay before I come back this time. If you miss me, just
Ask someone to send me a letter. Even if I piss off cousin Xiyu, I will definitely come back to be with you."
Ye Qingning was full of guilt, but he couldn't help but burst into laughter after being teased like this. Ye Qinglan also laughed, her eyebrows curved, and a small smile dimple loomed on her cheek.
In Ye Qingning's eyes, Ye Qinglan has never been more beautiful than now.
It was difficult to talk along the way, but when they arrived at Hefengyuan, Ruixue said with heartache: "Miss, the old lady has gone too far. I made you kneel for so long." She clearly saw that her young lady had no backers and was easy to bully.
!
Guiyuan's eyes were also red: "It would be great if the master was here. At least he could stand up and intercede for the young lady." The eldest wife Zheng looked pretty good on weekdays, but at the critical moment, she only protected the sixth young lady and did not care at all.
I don't care about my own lady.
Hong Luan and Ying'er were both a little embarrassed. They looked at each other and invariably remained silent.
Ye Qinglan smiled casually: "Okay, don't mention this matter again." She wrote down this account for the time being. There will be a day when she will pay it back! Now, she is alone and the situation is worse than others.
Strong, any talk of dignity and respect is a joke.
Ruixue and Guiyuan were still angry. It was obvious that Ye Qinglan didn't want to say more, so she had no choice but to shut up.
Ruixue led the maids to carry their luggage and accompanied Ye Qinglan to the carriage. The person who came to pick up Ye Qinglan was still Mrs. Zheng's mother Huang.
Mother Huang was secretly surprised after waiting for so long, and asked tentatively: "Has all my cousin's luggage been packed?" Logically speaking, it should have been packed yesterday. It shouldn't be delayed for so long today, right?
Ye Qinglan didn't intend to explain, and smiled lightly.
Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Huang's mother wisely changed the topic: "Since Miss Clockwork left, the house has become much deserted. These days, Miss is always depressed and refuses to say a few words."
As soon as Gu Xiyu was mentioned, Ye Qinglan's heart softened and she asked with concern: "Is cousin Xiyu still as unwilling to speak as before?"
Mother Huang sighed and nodded.
Ye Qinglan also had the urge to sigh. So, her previous efforts were basically in vain? Gu Xiyu's autism had just improved, but before she could fully consolidate the treatment, she was forced to leave Dingguo
Gongfu. What will Gu Xiyu look like in these two months?
Ye Qinglan's worry was palpable, and Huang's mother was secretly moved when she saw it. She couldn't help but say: "A few days ago, the young lady had a quarrel with the young master."
What?!
Ye Qinglan was stunned and repeated in disbelief: "Cousin Xiyu and cousin Gu had a fight?" How is this possible! Gu Xiyu has always been very dependent on Gu Xinian, and even has a brother-in-law complex. In Gu Xiyu's heart
, no one can surpass Gu Xinian's position. How could such Gu Xiyu possibly quarrel with Gu Xinian?
Huang's mother smiled helplessly and said: "I don't know exactly what happened. However, the young lady has been bored in Lengyue Pavilion these days and refuses to come out to see anyone. Even if the young master goes to see her, she won't
Li. Madam went there several times, but she refused to speak. In the past few days, Madam and Master have been very anxious. After thinking about it, I can only ask my cousin to stay at home for a few days to accompany her. "
No wonder Gu Xinian would take the initiative to invite him to the Dingguo Palace as a guest. Sure enough, something was wrong with Gu Xiyu! You know, the reason why Gu Xiyu and Gu Xinian quarreled was probably because of her...
Ye Qinglan was not in the mood to taste the joy of victory. All she could think of was Gu Xiyu's stubborn and silent look, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
She chose to leave because she didn't want to put Gu Xiyu in a dilemma. But she didn't expect that Gu Xiyu's autism got worse again. She even had a quarrel with Gu Xinian because of her...
To others, a few quarrels may be nothing. But to Gu Xiyu, it is probably an unprecedented first time!
"I have watched the young lady grow up with my own eyes. This is the first time that the young lady and the young master have quarreled." Huang's mother sighed with emotion: "In the past few days, the young lady has stayed behind closed doors, and the young master is not in a good mood!"
Ye Qinglan snorted heavily in her heart. It was none of her business that Gu Xinian was in a bad mood! She would not sympathize with him!
Mother Huang naturally didn't know what Ye Qinglan was thinking, so she continued to ramble: "However, after the young master returned home last night, he went to Lengyue Pavilion again. He probably told the young lady that he wanted to invite his cousin to be a guest. It's early in the morning today.
, Miss finally came out from Lengyue Pavilion and is waiting for Miss Cousin in Jingxinyuan!"
If it weren't for Gu Xiyu who was eagerly waiting for Ye Qinglan, Huang's mother wouldn't have become anxious because of the long wait.
Ye Qinglan still didn't explain anything, she just smiled slightly and said: "Please tell Mother Huang and the coachman to make the carriage go faster."
Nowadays, the carriages women ride in are mainly stable, and the speed is naturally not very fast. If they were traveling at this slow speed, they would not be able to reach Duke Dingguo's mansion in half an hour.
Mother Huang was actually very anxious. She smiled and nodded when she heard this, and asked the coachman to go faster.
The carriage was indeed much faster. It was pulled by two horses and the driver was very skilled in driving, so the carriage was quite stable.
Along the way, Ye Qinglan chatted a lot with Huang's mother. From Huang's mother's mouth, she learned a lot about Gu Xiyu's current situation.
Since she left, Gu Xiyu has lost a caring playmate and suddenly talks a lot less. Mrs. Zheng wants to take her out of the house, but she is unwilling. Although Gu Xinian spends a lot of time with her, after all, he cannot be like Ye Qinglan
Being with her all day long. Coupled with missing Ye Qinglan, the smile on Gu Xiyu's face became less and less.
Later, after having an argument with Gu Xinian for some reason, Gu Xiyu became even more silent and less talkative. She often didn't say a word for a long time. Just like the Gu Xiyu before Ye Qinglan showed up...even worse than before.
Quieter.
As Ye Qinglan listened, her heart almost became tangled. She wished she could fly to Gu Xiyu immediately.
The carriage finally stopped.
Mother Huang got off the carriage first, and then helped Ye Qinglan to get off the carriage attentively. She said with a smile: "Madam has already given instructions. When cousin comes, just go in directly. No need to pass the message..."
Ye Qinglan seemed not to have heard anything, and looked straight at the familiar and delicate figure at the door.
I haven’t seen her for two months and she has lost a lot of weight...
Gu Xiyu waited for a long time, and finally Ye Qinglan came. She was happy and excited at the same time. She wanted to open her mouth and call out "Cousin Lan", but for some reason, she choked and couldn't say anything. Her big eyes were full of water.
The light is almost falling.
How could Ye Qinglan still remember the etiquette of the boudoir? She walked lightly, picked up the hem of her skirt and ran over. Then, she hugged Gu Xiyu into her arms and her voice was choked: "Cousin Xiyu, long time no see..." (Unfinished)
