"Second Miss Qin, Hao'er is still young. If you have offended me in any way, please forgive Miss Qin. It's just that Haoer is not sensible. It is very inappropriate to bring Miss Qin here!" Mrs. Xingguo said on her side. Walking out, he said calmly.
This means that Shao Yuanhao is still young and Qin Wanru is always older than him. It would be rude to follow him in like this.
Is this why Mrs. Xingguo came in a hurry
He turned his body slightly and looked at the yard behind him calmly. It was a grand yard, but the owner inside was no longer there. But even though he was gone, the yard still retained its old appearance. It can be seen that The government valued the owner who originally lived here.
"What Madam said is that Wan Ru doesn't know that no one can come in here." Qin Wanru said softly with a strange look in his eyes.
"This is a forbidden area in the mansion. Even people in the mansion cannot enter casually. That is why Hao'er is ignorant, so he comes in from time to time." Mrs. Xingguo's expression became gentler and she looked around. Qin Wanru said, "This kid has a crush on you. I guess you saved him that day."
"Madam, you are serious!" Qin Wanru said quietly.
"Hao'er has grown up in the mansion since he was a child. How can he not feel distressed for such a single seedling left behind? The madam holds it in her mouth for fear of melting and holds it in her hands for fear of falling. Everything in the mansion depends on it. Who would have expected that he would have nothing to do in the house, but almost get into trouble when he goes out to attend a banquet!" Mrs. Xingguo said with sincerity.
Qin Wanru didn't answer this time. What Mrs. Xingguo needed at this time was just a listener.
"The eldest princess Ruian wants to take Hao'er away now because she is afraid that Hao'er won't get used to living there..." Mrs. Xingguo sighed again as she spoke, turning her head slightly to look at Qin Wanru who was about one step behind her and said, " I heard that Miss Qin Er’s biological mother is not Mrs. Shui, but I don’t know who her biological mother is?”
The words passed a bit quickly, but fortunately Qin Wanru was also prepared. She lowered her head slightly and covered up her cold eyes: "Wanru doesn't know about her biological mother, and her father won't let Wanru ask any more questions."
"Is it possible that your biological mother is gone?" Mrs. Xingguo said with pity in her eyes, "What a pitiful child!"
Although the previous words were abrupt, the last words were enough to make people feel that she was compassionate and kind.
"Wan Ru doesn't know!" Qin Wan Ru's eyebrows were filled with sadness.
"Have you never met your biological mother?" Mrs. Xingguo asked with concern on her face, her eyes soft.
Qin Wanru shook her head gently and whispered, "My father, mother, and grandmother all love me very much!"
"What a pitiful and sensible child!" Mrs. Xingguo sighed, her eyes falling on the embroidered patterns on her clothes, "The embroidered patterns are so beautiful. I saw that the three ladies from your Qin Mansion today all look like this. Embroidery patterns, who would come up with such bluegrass embroidery patterns?"
"Wanru didn't know, it was made in the sewing room!" Qin Wanru shook her head again.
"Were all three sets of clothes made in the sewing room?" Mrs. Xingguo frowned and asked seemingly casually, as if she was really just curious about this matter.
"Yes, we just arrived in Beijing. Grandma asked someone to make clothes for us. Miss Qi happened to live in our house, so we made them together. But this orchid grass pattern..." Qin Wanru hesitated here, as if I thought of something, but I stopped talking.
"How about this bluegrass pattern?"
"This orchid grass pattern seems like I have seen it somewhere before." Qin Wanru gently rubbed his forehead, but couldn't remember it for a while.
"Where did you meet me?" Although Mrs. Xingguo looked calm, her voice became a little louder unconsciously. Qin Wanru raised her eyes and looked at the corners of her lips that she tried to press tightly, her eyes became more and more intense. It became very dark.
"I just can't remember it... but I should have seen it before, either from the Qi Prefect's house, from our house, or from one of Jiangzhou's houses." Qin Wanru said.
Jiangzhou, that is to say in Jiangzhou!
"Second Miss Qin, do you have a glass lamp in your house?" Taking a deep breath and suppressing the throbbing in her heart, Mrs. Xingguo asked.
"This... seems unclear!" Qin Wanru's clear eyes showed confusion and she opened her mouth slightly.
While they were talking, several ladies came out from the front. They saw Mrs. Xingguo Gong and Qin Wanru passing by, but they stood on the roadside waiting for them to pass, and then walked forward together talking and laughing.
Qin Wanru was originally walking beside Mrs. Xingguo, but slowly fell to the back of the crowd. She looked at Mrs. Xingguo with a gentle smile in front of her, and a hint of evil flashed in her eyes. Now she was sure that Mrs. Xingguo knew that The orchid grass seal is my own.
Can we think that Qin Yuru in the previous life used this orchid seal to reach the Xingguo Duke's mansion, but she doesn't know what this orchid seal represents.
Why should Duke Xingguo take a high look at this seal
And this level of high regard has already made Duke Xingguo's wife taboo!
She can't say that the seal is hers yet. Before she can figure out the truth of the matter, she has to move forward slowly and slowly step by step. Any carelessness may put her in a desperate situation.
Mrs. Xingguo Duke took everyone directly to the banquet place. The banquet was placed in the garden of Xingguo Duke's mansion. A mandarin tent was set up around it, which was raised high to block the wind. A large chrysanthemum garden was in front of the banquet. This place is when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and there is almost a sea of chrysanthemums here.
Many people came to this sea of flowers and marveled at the chrysanthemum viewing party in Xingguo Duke's Mansion. The whole capital knew that Xingguo Duke's Mansion had a chrysanthemum garden that was not found in other mansions. Such a large area of chrysanthemums was not only beautiful but also diverse. There are many varieties, many of which are not available outside.
Qin Wanru stood in front of a patch of flowers, stopped, and her eyes fell on a few scattered small flowers on the edge of the patch of flowers. Those flowers did not look like chrysanthemums, and they were small, as if they were random scattered wild flowers. Yes, but in this kind of place, the possibility of such wild flowers is really unlikely.
I gently picked up the corners of my skirt, squatted down, and looked carefully at the few tiny, almost inconspicuous flowers. I always felt that I had forgotten something in my mind!
"Miss, these flowers can be used as medicine!" Seeing Qin Wanru squatting down, Yu Jie also squatted down, and after curiously looking at the few flowers, she said in surprise.
Hearing what she said, Qin Wanru suddenly remembered that these plants with small flowers were indeed a kind of medicine. He had been thinking about flowers just now, but he was thinking in the wrong direction.
"It clears the mind and improves the eyesight, and it's good for health!" Qin Wanru reached out and touched these small flowers, and glanced around. There was almost a sea of flowers around. He could grow these chrysanthemums so well, and he could also use them with medicinal properties. It is really not something that ordinary people can do to leave the plants behind.
Duke Xingguo’s Mansion really put a lot of effort into this chrysanthemum!
"Second sister, did you have fun?" Qin Yuru's voice appeared in Qin Wanru's ears. She raised her head and clapped her hands. Qin Wanru stood up and looked behind her.
Not only Qin Yuru, but also Mrs. Yong Kangbo and several other ladies and ladies. Qi Rongzhi fell at the end, looking quite pitiful, as if he had been squeezed out.
"It's okay!" Qin Wanru said with a faint look.
"Where's that Young Master Hao? Why don't you play with you?" Qin Yuru said with a half-smile. She just didn't like Qin Wanru. Even though she repeatedly warned herself not to cause trouble, she couldn't suppress the tone she had received before.
She didn't believe that Qin Wanru could know that she hit the child on purpose!
"Hao'er has gone back first. Can eldest sister see her mother?" Qin Wanru said calmly.
"How do I know where Mrs. Shui is!" Qin Yuru said displeased. She had no intention of being with Shui Ruolan. Who cares where Shui Ruolan is now.
"Mother hasn't come yet, I'll go look for her!" Qin Wanru looked at the people around him and didn't find Shui Ruolan coming, and said, "Mother's health is not good. If it weren't for us today, she wouldn't be here either. come over!"
After speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Qi Rongzhi who was walking over.
"Sister Wanru, I'll go look for you with you!" Qi Rongzhi finally had a chance to speak, and said hurriedly. Just now, he and Qin Yuru met people from Yong Kangbo's mansion, and then Yong Kangbo The people in the house only talked to Qin Yuru and didn't even give her a chance to interrupt. How could she not be depressed.
Qin Yuru was originally unwilling to go, but seeing that both of them had gone to look for her, it would have been too much for her not to go. She could only grit her teeth secretly and squeezed out a smile on her face, "Then let's go together. Find it!"
The three of them asked for the direction of the flower hall before and headed towards the flower hall. They met Shui Ruolan halfway along the way, so they turned back together.
The seats have been arranged in advance. The seats in the Qin Mansion are neither too far forward nor too far back. This arrangement is very appropriate. What is inappropriate is that there is a table across the table from Mrs. Yong Kangbo. As he was looking at her coldly, coincidentally, he was face to face with her, and when he saw Qin Wanru turning his eyes over, Mrs. Yong Kangbo snorted coldly, with annoyance on her face.
Qin Wanru's eyes flashed, but she didn't seem to mind at all. She even smiled at Mrs. Yong-Kangbo. Mrs. Yong-Kangbo's face turned darker with this smile. Things at the residence of the eldest princess Ruian made her come. Now I feel ashamed to see anyone, and Qin Wanru is the cause of all this.
A maid walked up to her ear and whispered a few words. She looked at Qin Wanru calmly, nodded, and gave a few instructions in a low voice.
The maid respectfully withdrew, then stood outside the venue, and then said something to a woman who was standing there. The woman also looked towards Qin Wanru, and then silently withdrew. .
There were people coming and going at the banquet, and no one would pay attention to what happened between a maid and a mother-in-law, but Qin Wanru saw it and couldn't help but feel secretly vigilant.
She could clearly see the last woman's look at her, and her eyes became colder and colder.
The maid of Duke Xingguo's Palace, the mother-in-law of Duke Xingguo's Palace, and Mrs. Yong-Kang Bo...
