MTL - Perfect Encounter-Chapter 29
Mrs. Tan replied: "You are right. Right now we really can't offend Mr. Qian anymore. Your father is like that, timid and afraid of getting into trouble, scruples about this and that. If he dares to do something, our family will not be in the same place now." This is the situation. But having said that, your father is right about one thing, that **** An Ruochen is now backed by a general, so he will definitely not give us a good look. Whether it is your father or I, I am afraid it will not work. "
An Ronggui said: "It's not that we think that we can get rid of the past by meeting once, and of course it's impossible to get close all of a sudden. It's just to show a soft attitude so that she can relax her vigilance and keep in touch with her family. Even if she says Some nasty words, mother, bear with it, as long as you can meet the superiors and say something, it will be useful in the future."
Tan said: "I can't go. But Xier can."
An Ruoxi was taken aback.
Both Tan Shi and An Ronggui looked at her.
"I?"
Tan Shi said: "You are sisters, of the same generation. You also have contacts on weekdays. Don't you often talk to her and play with her. Last time you went to Ziyun Tower to visit the general, didn't she accompany you?"
When Tan said this, she suddenly paused, "Now that I think about it, you were used by her. Did she take the opportunity to hook up with the general when she went to Ziyun Tower? You can see that there is something unusual here?"
An Ruoxi shook her head subconsciously, but in her mind, when she was busy beckoning the maid in Ziyun Tower, she hadn't seen her elder sister for a while.
An Ruoxi thought for a while, then shook her head: "The general wasn't there that day."
Mrs. Tan didn't care, and said: "Don't worry about the past. You go to see her, she will definitely not be too defensive towards you. You don't have to please her, just look at her current situation, just talk like you used to This way she won't be suspicious. In short, if you can see the higher-ups and say something, it will be fine if the road to and from in the future is not blocked."
An Ruoxi was a little flustered, what could she say when she went to see her elder sister? She has never paid much attention to her eldest sister, and her words are not very pleasant.
An Ronggui thought for a while and said, "That's fine. It's really hard for parents to find that bitch. It's a good idea for sister to go. Let's make it so."
Tan Shi said: "Then I'll talk to the master in a while. When he finds an opportunity, he invites General Zong to come and inquire about the situation from General Zong. Seeing the opportunity, he will make arrangements for Xi'er to be with that bitch. See you."
"mother…"
As soon as An Ruoxi spoke, she was interrupted by Mrs. Tan.
"You don't need to worry, it will take some time for your father to make an appointment with General Shang Zong. In the next few days, as a mother, think about it carefully, and I will teach you how to deal with that bitch." Tan Shi said, watching her son nod and then using With a wink, Mrs. Tan said: "Okay, that's all for Mr. Qian, don't worry. Go back to the room first, and Ronggui and I will talk about the things in the shop."
An Ruoxi had no choice but to swallow the words back. Get up and say goodbye.
An Ruoxi walked outside the house slowly, the more she thought about it, the more flustered she became. What can she say when she sees the elder sister? Both parents know that it is the result of seeing the elder sister's face, and it will be fine if she is replaced? She went over in her mind whether she had any grievances with her elder sister on weekdays. After thinking about it, the most impressive thing happened recently was when she satirized her elder sister's engagement. In front of her face, she said more than once that she was lucky to marry her, and even laughed at her wishful thinking about other men.
As a result, not only has he retired from the marriage, but he has also flattered General Long.
An Ruoxi only felt her face burning hot, as if An Ruochen had slapped dozens of times across the air.
An Ruoxi gritted her teeth, turned around and went back to Tan's house, wanting to tell her mother that she could not go, and that she had offended her elder sister to the core, and was not as harmonious as they thought. When they got to the door, they heard Tan's voice saying: "I'm afraid it won't be easy to use the trick of getting married again."
An Ruoxi froze, and immediately stopped in her tracks.
An Ronggui said in the room: "It may not be true marriage, it's just an attitude. After all, the fourth sister ran away, the elder sister left, this matter will spread in Zhonglan City, maybe it will spread throughout Pingnan County in the past few days Mr. Qian is more face-saving than Daddy. If he doesn't clean up our house, how will he stand up in the outside world? Now that Mr. Qian has not done anything, we should speed up our posture. The pleadings are written, and we will obey him He pretended to try to win over Eldest Sister, but these are things that can’t be put on the table, and they don’t add much credit to his face. We’ll suffer a bit, and we’ll discuss marriage with him again, which shows that we’re very sincere in making love to him. One family. Whether he agrees or refuses, he can be happy if he earns enough face in front of outsiders."
"How can there be a family where all the girls marry into the same family? It's not good to hear about it."
"If you want to say it's not good, what the eldest sister did is not good. She has brought us a lot of shame. We have two marriages with Mr. Qian, and they are all dirty. The eldest sister is still here in Zhonglan City. Is this still true? Can it sound good? It is precisely because of the big sister that we make up for the aftermath. It is reasonable and no one can find fault. On the contrary, it seems that our family has made a promise. Mother, think about it, is it like this? Master Qian may not agree to the marriage, but we mentioned it. It is because we are considerate. Mr. Qian has a bright face, so we can discuss anything in the future, right? After the marriage proposal, no matter whether Mr. Qian agrees or not, if the elder sister meets the elder sister, he will not be able to please, and will be humiliated and returned. , then Master Qian can’t blame us.”
An Ruoxi's hair was cold, her palms were sweating, and she held her breath and listened carefully to the movement in the room.
After a moment of silence, she heard Mrs. Tan say: "Well, this is also a way. I will save enough face for Mr. Qian, so we can discuss things in the future." An county also had to rely on Qian Pei.
An Ruoxi closed her eyes, only felt the buzzing in her head, and she couldn't hear what was going on in the room, so she turned her head and left.
An Ruoxi was still a little dazed when she came out of the courtyard, and Mei Xiang, who was waiting in the courtyard for her to catch up with her and wait for her to go back to the house, she ignored her and just walked forward sullenly.
After walking a few steps, An Ruoxi suddenly turned her head and stared at the old woman who was huddled in the corner of the courtyard wall. That was An Ruochen's old nanny. She felt that she seemed to see someone from the corner of her eye, and it turned out that there was really someone.
The old nanny couldn't dodge in time, so she hurried forward when she was discovered, and asked, "Second girl, I heard that the master is back. This old slave wants to inquire, how is my eldest daughter? What is the situation?"
An Ruoxi was so angry that there was nowhere to vent her anger. Seeing that the people around An Ruochen were even more furious, she cursed loudly: "What's wrong with her? She's very good! Only that **** is good in the whole world, but she's ruining everyone else go!"
An Ruoxi became angrier when she spoke, and really wanted to slap the old slave a few times.
Seeing her ferocious expression, the old nanny subconsciously took a few steps back.
An Ruoxi clenched his fists and held back. Ignore the old nanny any more, and walk away.
An Ruoxi stayed behind closed doors for two days, lying on the bed and saying that she was not feeling well. When Mrs. Tan came to visit her, she hugged Mrs. Tan and acted like a baby. Mrs. Tan laughed at her coquettishness while asking someone to invite the doctor over. The doctor took the pulse and couldn't see any serious problems, he only said that the blood was weak and prescribed some medicine to replenish the blood.
Tan hugged her daughter and said with a smile: "When you were young, Nuhong didn't learn well, and you were anxious. Then you heard Master Nuhong praise your third sister's skill, and then you felt uncomfortable. You also lay on the bed and complained of headaches. Mother knows, you panic If you have something in your heart, you will easily get into trouble. Silly child, you have a mother here, so don’t panic. Are you worried about going to see your eldest sister and being slapped by her? You are a big girl, you have a family, relatives and mother, and she, take it off How can she compare to you? You have to think like this. Be patient for a while, and you will have a better life in the future. Don’t panic, just meet and see how she is now, if she doesn’t listen to you , you just ignore her. Mother will definitely deal with her in the future, so that you won't be wronged."
An Ruoxi snuggled into her mother's arms and asked softly, "Mother, you will definitely protect me and prevent others from bullying me, right?"
"Naturally, you are my daughter." Mrs. Tan stroked her hair, "Take care of your body and cheer up quickly. Your father has already invited General Zong, and he will come the next day. At that time, you should ask him more about An Ruochen's situation at the banquet, and say that you care about her very much and want to see her. Your father will push the boat along the way, and then ask General Zong to help arrange it. Do you understand?"
"Understood." An Ruoxi closed her eyes and answered softly.
Then Zong Zeqing really came. An Zhifu gave a good reception, set out good wine and meat, and invited musicians and singers to play music and sing songs. Tan Shi, An Ronggui, and An Ruoxi were all at the table as companions.
An Zhifu asked Zong Zeqing about An Ruochen's situation in the Ziyun Tower, asked the general about his happiness and anger, and said that he was always a bit strict with his eldest daughter, and then the fourth daughter disappeared. The punishment was a little harsher, I'm afraid she would keep her grudge in her heart and make up some inappropriate words in front of the general or the prefect.
Zong Zeqing reassured that there was no need to worry too much, it was actually not a big deal, but at that time the prefect and the general really needed to ask Ms. An about the case. Furthermore, Miss An is an important witness, so if she is not transferred to Ziyun Building, it will drag down the entire An family. Now she is recovering from her injuries in Ziyun Building, and she is being interrogated every day, and she really didn't make up any family talk.
It sounds like An Ruochen's life is not very good, Tan felt a little relieved. She gave her daughter a few winks, and An Ruoxi hurriedly asked An Ruochen about food, clothing, expenses, and daily life in Ziyun Tower. Elder sister Dao left in a hurry and didn't take any clothes with her. She was afraid she would live outside. Not used to it, she was quite worried, and wanted to visit and send some clothes to her sister.
Mrs. Tan hurriedly helped out, saying that the relationship between the sisters in the family has always been good, but now that the fourth girl is missing and the eldest girl leaves home, An Ruoxi is worried and even fell ill. I intend to visit, but I don't know about An Ruochen's involvement in the case, can I see him? Furthermore, Ziyun Tower is not something that ordinary people can go to whenever they want. I hope General Zong can help arrange the arrangements.
Zong Zeqing was easy to speak, and readily agreed.
In the Ziyun Building, An Ruochen listened to what Zong Zeqing said, and said: "My second sister's concern about me must not be sincere, maybe she has plans."
This Zong Zeqing naturally understood. "Then how do you plan?"
Are you going to? An Ruochen felt that it was a good thing to meet the second sister along the way. Aunt Lu said that the nanny didn't want to leave, and wanted to stay in Anfu to find out the news for her. If she can find a way to inquire, the nanny can leave with peace of mind. Although the second sister is behind the scenes with her father and second aunt making up their minds, but the second sister's mind is easy to guess, based on what she knows about the second sister, An Ruochen thinks she can still handle her.
An Ruochen replied: "You should ask the general what he means..."
Zong Ze readily agreed: "It's up to you, see you whenever you want."
"She meant to ask me what I mean." A voice suddenly came out of the window.
Zong Zeqing turned his head and saw that standing outside the window was Mr. "General".
Zong Ze looked at An Ruochen with a downcast face, really? Are you asking if "the other general" is not "this general"?
An Ruochen returned him a silly smile. In fact, she did have the second half of the sentence "When will the general come back?", but in this situation, she couldn't take Zong Zeqing's face seriously. Ask any general, it doesn't matter.
When she smiled like that, Zong Zeqing also smiled back at Long Da. Miss An asked him, and he was not mistaken.
