Everyone was surprised, even the old lady didn't expect that he came suddenly and quietly.
After greeting each other, Xi Lanting sat down next to Yun Qiao and asked Master Yinghong: "Master, is there anything wrong with Yun Qiao?"
Master Yinghong's face remained unchanged, her smile was kind and gentle, and she looked extremely charitable: "There is nothing wrong, but I seem to have seen this young lady before."
Yun Qiao glanced at Master Tai.
She had traveled to many places with her grandmother since she was a child and met many people. Because she had an extraordinary memory, she remembered this master's wife.
It was when she was five years old.
"My grandma and I met you in the capital, do you still remember? That host asked you to copy Buddhist scriptures to his deceased mother," Yun Qiao said.
"That master" was the prince who was very prominent at that time. The prince passed away one year before the emperor abdicated.
The prince's whole family believes in Buddhism, and Master Yinghong practiced in a nunnery near the capital in her early years. Later, as banditry continued in Beijing and Tianjin, she moved to the south.
She may have some magical powers and be appreciated by dignitaries wherever she goes.
"Yes, remember." Master Yinghong said with a smile, "Your grandma... seems to be no longer alive, right?"
"Yes, he died more than a year ago." Yun Qiao said with a smile, "I won't mention the old things."
Du Xueru: "..."
Everyone was setting up the meal, and Xi Lanting also sat down to eat vegetarian food.
The vegetarian dishes here at the old lady's place are particularly exquisite. Some of the vegetarian dishes look like meat and taste similar, enough to look like the real thing.
Yun Qiao sat next to Xi Lanting and ate happily.
Du Xueru kept her words secret, and regardless of the presence of outsiders, she actually tentatively asked the old lady why the Governor's Office did not choose Wen Lan and Young Master Jiang to marry.
The old lady knew her daughter-in-law's temper very well, so she said it bluntly: "Wen Lan is undoubtedly very good, but Jiang Shao is not her lover."
This is straightforward enough.
That is to say, these two people are not worthy! No matter who is not worthy of the other, in the hearts of the old lady and the warlord, this matter will not work.
Xi Wenlan understood and tried his best to smile.
Du Xueru still refused to give up: "How will you know this good relationship if you don't try it?"
The old lady said: "A good match is destined by fate. Whether or not there is such a fate, you can see it. I watched Wen Lan grow up, and I have to find a good son-in-law for her."
Du Xueru then said: "Nowadays, there is no one better than Master Jiang. Mother, Master Jiang treats Wen Lan well and is always attentive to her."
Xi Lanting sat next to him and took a sip of soup quietly.
Xi Wenlan quietly touched her mother's feet under the table and winked at Yun Qiao, hoping that Yun Qiao would stop her mother from speaking openly.
Yun Qiao ignored it.
Xi Wenlan could only say: "Mom, Mr. Jiang likes Yun Qiao more, not me."
As soon as these words came out, it seemed that Yun Qiao had stolen her man.
It seems that the failure of the marriage between the Xi family and the Jiang family is all Yun Qiao's fault.
It was Yun Qiao who drove Wenjie away.
Not to mention the shrewd old lady and Master Yinghong who were present, even Wen Luyao could understand this eye drops.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yao immediately said, "What did you say?"
Xi Wenlan seemed frightened: "I, did I say something wrong? I'm sorry, Yun Qiao, I just saw that you and Mr. Jiang were very close. Wen Jie was also jealous at the beginning..."
"I'm jealous because I'm stupid." Xi Lanting on the side said slowly, "Everyone who is stupid deserves to die."
He didn't say the word "damn" very seriously, but Xi Wenlan understood it and felt chills running down his spine.
She shut up immediately and didn't dare to say a word.
The old lady pretended that nothing happened and talked to Mrs. Yinghong about the vegetarian meal on the table. However, after Xi Wenlan and Du Xueru made such a fuss, everyone felt that they had lost their appetite.
