He Lingyao was not in good health. She lost too much blood and was extremely weak. Knowing that the matter failed, she had no choice but to show her filial piety for the sake of reputation. She forced herself down the mountain to save her mother. Now after struggling all the way, she is kneeling outside the Duke's Mansion.
After waiting for more than an hour, when she arrived in front of her ancestor, she almost couldn't support herself. Even if she didn't kneel down, she would fall to the ground.
After the two called them ancestors, they bowed their heads obediently and did not dare to say anything. However, the ancestors seemed not to notice these two people and continued to chat with Luo Jingyao on non-nutritious topics.
Listening to the conversation between an old man and a young child, He Lingyao was jealous. She didn't understand why her ancestors were so partial when they were clearly born on the same day? Doesn't she have the blood of the Luo family?
Luo Jingyao's good luck made her jealous and eager, but this mistake almost cost her her life. She didn't know how long it would take to find another chance.
"Come on, let's Xiao Yao take Tiantian Zui first. After everything is over, let's go to the ancestor's house to eat golden candied dates, okay?" The old man took out a jade box from his sleeve and handed it to Luo Jingyao.
, let her grind her teeth.
"Thank you, ancestor, it's so sweet. Yao'er will definitely go to see ancestor one day." Luo Jingyao was very sweet. She liked this old man. She didn't dislike having elders in the family because her family had them all.
He was very good to her, and he seems to be very good now.
She doesn't mind coaxing the old man.
"Oh, that's great. If you don't come, my ancestors' delicious food will be ruined."
The old man looked at the little girl sitting next to him and his eyes were filled with laughter. The old man was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. He still remembered that when the little girl first learned to speak, she would call him "Old Zuzu" when she saw him.
When he got older, he called him "ancestor", which was not new at all. Later, he stayed on the sickbed for a lot of time. It was not easy for him as an old man to disturb the little girl's recovery. Recently, he found that the little girl's health was much better, otherwise he would not have to live today.
He can just go to his house and hand it over to the other clan elders, but the little girl finally feels better. What if this messy incident affects the little girl again? No, it would be better for him to go there.
"It won't go bad. I will eat at my ancestor's house another day. If I can't finish it in one day, I will eat it for two days. If I can't finish it in two days, I will take it back to the house and eat it slowly." Luo Jingyao thought in her mind.
I also want to make some easy-to-digest food for the old man.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, this is what you little girl said, don't let your words go unfulfilled!" The old man looked at the little girl sitting next to him with a loving face.
"Ancestor, all the clan elders, the Duke, Madam, several young ladies, the old lady of the He family and the second master of the He family are here." Normally, the young men can help with the report, but today my ancestor is here,
The servants were trembling with fear, so it was up to him, the more courageous butler, to report the matter.
After the butler finished reporting, he stepped aside and waited to serve the masters inside.
Madam He had wanted to enter the Duke's Mansion before, but now the mother and son were so afraid of entering the Duke's Mansion.
"Ancestor, how are you?" After Mrs. He came in, she greeted her with a smile and hid her fear in her heart. If it weren't for the support of He An beside her, her legs would be so weak that she could kneel on the ground.
He An stopped pretending to be dead today and hurried forward to say hello.
"Okay? How can I, old man, be well? What do you mean by good?" The ancestor looked at Mrs. He with a majestic look. Just such a woman, she played around with the old lady who came out of Prince Zhong's Mansion, so she just deceived him.
idiot.
Mrs. He lowered her head, and noticed from the corners of her eyes and brows that the Duke and his son were standing like them. She felt a thump in her heart. I'm afraid this matter would be troublesome today. If I had known, they wouldn't have thought so much about scheming.
But when the ancestors above asked questions, even the emperor had to pay tribute to a somewhat thin-faced person. What kind of congratulations did they have and what could they use to compete with others? I could only be more respectful to the ancestors.
Just saying this, how should she respond? It is obvious that she is not satisfied with what happened today.
No! I'm afraid they have been dissatisfied with the He family for a long time, but they didn't make it public, so they turned a blind eye and pretended they didn't see it.
"Look, you can't tell. Okay, I called you here today, and I didn't ask you to say anything. Boss and daughter-in-law, please sit down for others. We can't do anything that would make someone laugh at us." And now.
Before the ancestor could even finish his words, the Duke's wife had already asked someone to prepare a chair.
The ancestor gave an appreciative look to the Duke's wife. This daughter-in-law did not marry wrong. This is what a clan wife should be like. This is a good wife.
Looking at the chairs placed behind them, Mrs. He and her son could neither sit nor sit down. However, under the eyes of the clan elders and ancestors, they could only sit down. However, no matter how they sat on today's chairs, they felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.
, can’t sit still.
After a while I broke out in a cold sweat.
"Let's talk about it, what happened in the past few days? Do you know it clearly? Before doing this, have you thought clearly about the impact on the two governments? Do you even have your own set of rules to plan what you want?
What?" The ancestor's right index finger and middle finger tapped on the armchair, tapping on everyone's hearts as he spoke.
It makes one's heart tighten.
"Ancestor, this matter is really a misunderstanding. We have been trying to minimize this matter as much as possible, but we did not expect that the rumors would spread throughout the capital so quickly. This is something we never expected." Mrs. He sighed.
She said in a tone of voice that her compassionate face gave her a lot of points and also fooled a lot of people.
"Since it was all a misunderstanding, then after this incident, why didn't you think of bringing the injured person back to your home for treatment, or you, as relatives, went to see how badly she was injured? Why didn't you go and instead came to the country?
The Duke, the Duke of Laiguo did say that this matter would affect the reputation of the two governments, right? But what did you do? What do you mean?"
The ancestor asked this question sharply.
Mrs. He was speechless. Looking at her ancestor's insightful eyes, she was trembling all over. She knew that her ancestor already knew their plan.
They have nothing to say, nothing to defend.
I can only lower my head and act like a quail so that my ancestors can pay less attention to them.
The ancestor snorted when he saw it.
Looking at the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground, he looked directly past He Lingyao.
"Our Luo Mansion will not care about the daughter of the He family. Whether she has been taught well or not is the business of your He family, let alone the fact that she grew up in our Duke's Mansion. Why is she in our Duke's Mansion?
Because of Xiao Luoshi? If your He family doesn't agree, how can she still insist on going her own way and rob your family? So don't blame everything on Xiao Luoshi."
