"What's going on?" Liu Yun asked sharply as he walked quickly to the front hall.
"Xiao Liuzi just returned home. When he passed by the front hall, he saw that the third lady and the second wife were both there. He felt a little strange. The third lady rarely went to the front hall on weekdays, so he asked Uncle Zhong. He heard that the third lady went out to buy things.
I met the eldest lady of the Tang family, and they had a quarrel. The third lady pushed someone, and Miss Tang injured her arm when she fell." Wan Qing told everything he knew.
Jin Han could have a verbal quarrel and then start a fight? Liu Yun simply thought this was a fantasy. With Jin Han's quiet and introverted nature, he didn't even talk much, let alone a verbal quarrel.
"Go find the bearers who followed Jin Han on the street today and ask them if they know anything." As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Qing nodded and left.
Liu Yun stopped outside the front hall to adjust his clothes when he heard Tang Ruoqing's aggressive voice. Mrs. Lin, on the other hand, smiled and apologized, but Jin Han didn't say a word.
"Mrs. Mu Er, your Mu family must give me an explanation for this matter today. Our Tang family is not one of those small families that can be bullied casually. Today, your third lady pushed me in front of everyone. If I
I won't give up until I give an explanation." Tang Ruoqing was wearing a pink embroidered Luo shirt, with white silk cigarettes tied into a delicate bow around her waist, her lips were phoenix-like, her hair was like clouds, and she had two hairpins on each side.
The hollow peacock hairpin made of gold wire is noble and flamboyant.
"Miss Tang is serious. If it is really our Jinhan's fault, we will definitely give an explanation to Miss Tang." If it was just a play between children, forget it, but this eldest daughter of the Tang family is famous.
Her reputation in Linyang City for her pampering is no less than that of Liu Yun. She and Liu Yun have never been in love with each other. Whenever they meet, there will inevitably be a verbal dispute. However, Liu Yun rarely goes out recently and has never met her.
, but I didn’t expect that Miss Tang would actually get into trouble with Jin Han.
Speaking of which, the Tang family is indeed not a small family. Like the Mu family, their family is also engaged in business, but the relationship between the Tang family and the government is closer. Miss Tang's uncle is the Chief Secretary. Zhenger
The sixth-rank officials of the Eight Classics had close relationships with royal merchants from all over the country, and the Tang family was considered a prominent figure in Linyang City.
"Hmph, this is best. She is just a concubine, but she dares to push our young lady in front of everyone. She is really ambitious." The eldest maid next to Tang Ruoqing said coldly.
At this time, Liu Yun walked in and smiled brightly: "Hey, when did the master of our Mu family turn to look down on a little girl? It seems that Mrs. Tang, the head matron, is really not good at all."
"Why are you talking about my mother?" Tang Ruoqing was furious and turned to glare at Liuyun.
"Isn't that right? There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. Your maid is guilty of crimes below. Isn't it because of the lax family rules of your Tang family? Isn't it your mother who is the mistress of the house now?" Liu Yun blinked and suddenly realized: "Oh, yes.
How could I have forgotten? I heard that Mr. Tang’s current favorite is the daughter of a high-ranking official from the capital, and even the power in the backyard has been handed over to her.”
"You..." Tang Ruoqing was furious, not only because Liuyun had touched her sore spot, but also because of the clear provocation in her eyes.
As the second wife of Mu Mansion, Mrs. Lin naturally would not let them get into a tense situation and quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Everyone, please sit down first and have a taste of the tea that our master has brought from the Western Regions."
The maids filed in and brought in the tea that had been prepared.
Tang Ruoqing's face was ugly and she didn't answer the question. She didn't know how to refute. Seeing that Mrs. Lin gave her the steps, she also took advantage of the situation and sat down.
Liu Yun walked to Jin Han and said with a smile: "Third sister, please sit down quickly. You must be tired after just coming back from outside. I asked the kitchen to prepare some snacks for you. You can try it."
While they were talking, another maid came in with some snacks and placed them in front of Jin Han. They were all her favorite foods. She looked up at Liu Yun in slight surprise, and saw her smiling face and quickly lowered her head shyly.
Headed.
"Second Madam, you said you wanted to explain it to me." Tang Ruoqing reminded with a cold face.
"What explanation? I know who you are, Tang Ruoqing, better than anyone else. Don't think that I will let you bully my third sister." Liu Yun snorted coldly and glanced at her sideways.
"Miss, it was Jin Han who hurt Miss Tang." Mrs. Lin hurriedly came out to speak, fearing that Liu Yun's speech would be too full and make the already complicated situation more complicated.
"My third sister can hurt people? Are you kidding me?" Liu Yun pretended to be surprised and looked at Tang Ruoqing thoughtfully, "If my third sister can hurt people, then you really have to think about how annoying you are.
People are tired of it.”
"Mu Liuyun." Tang Ruoqing stood up suddenly, and the tea cup in her hand fell to the ground with a single sweep, making a crisp sound.
"These are the three friends of Suihan made in Shu City. If one is missing, you will not be able to make a set. A set is not expensive, only four hundred taels of silver. If Miss Tang does not carry so much silver, I am not unreasonable."
I'll send someone to the Tang Mansion to pick it up soon." Liu Yun looked at the debris on the ground, half-smiling but not smiling.
Tang Ruoqing was really pissed off now. In the past, when she and Liu Yun had arguments, she usually had the upper hand. This time, she was so suppressed by Liu Yun that she couldn't hold her head up, which really made her furious.
"It was your sister who pushed me and hurt my arm." As he spoke, he even lifted up his sleeves, and sure enough he saw a bruise.
Mrs. Lin gasped and didn't know how to smooth things over for a while.
"I was not careful. If your maid hadn't pushed me, I wouldn't have lost my balance and bumped into you." Jin Han explained in a low voice.
"Tang Ruoqing, it seems that your maid is really going to take care of herself. She really has no rules." Liu Yun's face changed slightly, and his cold eyes stared straight at her, "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking.
, if you want to take advantage of Jin Han, you are still far away. You'd better understand that our Mu family is not someone who can be manipulated."
As if someone had exposed her, Tang Ruoqing pursed her lips and was speechless.
"Aunt Lin, Miss Tang is here as a guest. Even if she broke our cup, she must have done it accidentally. The money will be deducted from my yard." Liu Yun stood up and pulled Jin Han out.
, "But I hope Miss Tang will remember what happened today. If she offends me again, she won't let it go so easily."
No one understands what Liuyun means, except Tang Ruoqing.
Lin frowned and looked at Tang Ruoqing, who looked ugly but never spoke again, puzzled.
"This is four hundred taels of silver." Tang Ruoqing took out the banknote from her sleeve, slammed it on the table, turned around and left.
Liu Yun and Jin Han were walking in the garden. Jin Han hesitated to speak several times. Liu Yun turned his head and looked at her, "What do you want to ask?"
"Eldest sister, why do you want to help me?" The relationship between them is not close, and it can even be said that it is not good. After all, the relationship between her mother and the Lin family is very complicated, so the sisters do not often get together.
"You are my third sister." Liu Yun replied calmly. Seeing her confusion, he explained: "You don't need to take what happened today to heart. She just wants to use you to attack the person in her house. Your mother and
I should know that side room."
If she remembered correctly, the daughter of the high-ranking official in the capital later became the mistress of the Tang family, replacing Tang Ruoqing's mother's position. As for Tang Ruoqing, the legitimate daughter, it seemed that she was promised to an unknown person, specifically:
She couldn't remember who it was.
"My mother?" Jin Han frowned, not knowing why.
I don't know why, seeing her being so confused about worldly affairs, Liu Yun suddenly smiled. It must be because of Xia's pampering and protection that she could be so simple and kind.
"What are you laughing at, elder sister?" Jin Han was even more confused.
Liu Yun waved his hand, but his smile grew stronger. He suddenly thought of Jin Han's future husband. His expression paused slightly, his eyes lingering on Jin Han's delicate cheeks, and he secretly swore that he would never let her marry such a man.
