Chapter 586 Warning each other
Tomorrow is the ten-day holiday, and the Women's School is already bustling with activity, but today is very different from usual. There is suddenly an empty space at the foot of the mountain that was originally full of carriages.
A man and a horse stood proudly in the middle, with countless hidden gazes scanning them, accompanied by some blatant discussions.
Wan Niang glanced at her second brother who stood out from the crowd, and a trace of worry surged in her heart. She then lowered the curtain and whispered to Li Anhe, "Mother, the rumors outside have not stopped since the second brother returned. This... I'm afraid it will put the second brother in trouble."
Li Anhe slightly opened his eyes, his expression calm, and said slowly: "Wan Niang, you don't have to worry about your second brother. If he had taken your parents seriously, he should have mentioned to your father about marrying Princess Anping when he was brought to Yanjing. Although we are angry with him, we are not unreasonable."
"But he didn't mention it, and instead asked to marry another person. No matter who that person is, he treated marriage as a joke and damaged the reputations of two women in succession. He must take responsibility for this mistake."
She took her daughter's hand and patted it gently, and continued earnestly: "It is absolutely unreasonable to let the woman bear all the mistakes, while the man is not hurt at all, and can still be known as a romantic man who claims to be passionate."
"Wanniang, you can feel sorry for your second brother, but you can't stand on his side in this matter. Otherwise, what's the difference between us and that unreasonable family? There must be a limit to helping relatives."
Wan Niang nodded silently to her mother's words and said nothing more.
Li Anhe let out a long sigh, lifted the car curtain and glanced at Er'er who was at the center of public opinion, and a sneer slowly rose at the corner of his mouth.
"Your second brother has become a different person since he returned from the Dragon Boat Festival. These days, he just nodded to your father when he met him at the Ministry of War. Although your father doesn't want to acknowledge him, blood is thicker than water, so how can he not worry about him?"
She turned her gaze back to her silent daughter, "Father and mother won't let him in, but he hasn't had time to come over to see you these days. He's only focused on building good relationships with the people in the Ministry of War. He's trying to get his family members to come. Just wait and see. Your second brother is definitely trying to get your father to agree to let him in by using the excuse of picking up Qingjie."
Upon hearing this, Wan Niang's eyes flashed with thought. She looked into the distance at the gate of the girls' school, which was already wide open. Female students were being released one after another, and her daughter would soon be out as well.
Without further delay, she opened the curtain in front of the carriage and got out.
At this moment, her mother's self-blaming sigh came from behind: "Dad and mom didn't teach your second brother well, and you children have to suffer because of him."
When Wang Lin saw his sister getting off the carriage, he quickly led the horse to meet her and affectionately called her "Wan Niang". Then, he bowed respectfully to the carriage and said loudly: "Niang..."
The car curtain swayed slightly, but the person inside did not respond.
Wang Lin stood up with a slight embarrassment, and then said to his sister, "Wanniang, I have agreed with Sister Qing that I will pick her up today. Can I let her ride with my second brother later?"
Wan Niang glanced at him with a complicated expression and refused: "Second brother, Qingjie is young and can't stand the bumps. Let her take the carriage. If you don't mind the trouble, why don't you take my husband with you? His foot is injured and it's difficult for him to get in and out of the carriage."
"Lin Yuzan?"
Wang Lin's face froze, and he was somewhat reluctant, but seeing the expectant look in his sister's eyes, his heart softened, and he nodded and agreed: "Okay, second brother will go pick him up."
As he spoke, he mounted his horse, whipped the horse, and galloped towards Yunfei Academy.
Wan Niang stared at her second brother's receding back, shook her head dejectedly, and continued to look towards the mountain gate.
Little Yining didn't know that her mother had sent her second uncle away. She said goodbye to her other sisters, stepped over the high threshold, and looked at the figures at the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, a long-lost voice came from behind her, "Princess Le'an, what are you looking at?"
Xiao Yining: →_→
When the little girl heard the voice, she looked back and saw the heroine Leng Mengwan walking towards her.
She coughed lightly and reminded, "Salute."
Leng Mengwan paused, pursed her lips, and reluctantly performed the blessing ceremony. Without waiting for the little kid to tell her to stand up, she stood up on her own, walked to the little kid, and looked down with her.
She got straight to the point and said, "Princess Le'an, I didn't expect that Wang Lin and I would have such a fate. I don't even know when I met Wang Lin."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yining noticed countless gazes falling on him.
She looked up and replied, "Miss Leng, you are of the same generation as me. My second uncle doesn't need to see you to call you niece."
Leng Mengwan:......
The heroine listened to the ups and downs of sneers around her and gritted her teeth: "You are indeed good at playing dumb. But don't be complacent, your second uncle wants to marry me, so I will suppress you."
She slowly squatted down and whispered proudly in the little kid's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "We both come from the same place, but you always go against me. Guess who will have the last laugh between us. I'll tell you in secret, I can't die."
Little Yining's hands, hidden under her sleeves, involuntarily clenched into a small bun. She raised her voice in surprise: "Miss Leng, you can't die? But my parents said that everyone will die. My grandfather and my great-grandfather have passed away!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Ya stepped forward and hugged her mistress in her arms, and sternly rebuked Leng Mengwan, "Miss Leng, please don't talk nonsense in front of the princess. You are losing your sense of propriety."
The heroine's governess, Gong Yilan, also stepped forward, forcibly pulled her behind her, bowed to apologize, and then she and Xi Que pulled her down the mountain.
Xiao Yining looked at the hostess indifferently, saying, "Miss Leng..."
Leng Mengwan, her master and her servant stopped and looked back at her.
The little kid looked down at her and warned loudly, "This princess is deeply favored by the emperor and is a second-rank official. Even if you don't like me, you still have to be polite when you see me. Don't forget it next time!"
When the heroine heard this, she glared at her unwillingly, shook off the hand that was pulling her, and walked down the mountain angrily.
The little girl stared at the man's back and cursed in her heart: He is really sick. The premise for her to go against him is obviously that he was the one who provoked her first, and if he didn't look for her and her old man, there would be no trouble between the two of them.
Zhao Ya also looked at the figures of the mistress, the master and the servant, and couldn't help but sigh: "This Aunt Gong was once a favorite of the Queen Mother, but now she is sent to follow Miss Leng and clean up her mess every day. It's really..."
Little Yining glanced at her and smiled sweetly: "Madam Zhao, Sister Qing didn't ask you to clean up the mess!"
Zhao Ya: ..., quite a few actually.
Zhao Ya said nothing, but just responded with a smile.
The little episode did not dampen the little girl's enthusiasm for returning home, but the woman's words did disturb her mood, and even her mother noticed her depression when she saw her.
Wan Niang took her daughter from Zhao Ya's arms and said, "Qing Jie, what happened? You must be missing your second uncle. He went to pick up your father and eldest uncle."
Little Yining couldn't help but vent her resentment on Wang Lin. She hugged her mother's neck and snorted heavily.
Wan Niang couldn't help but look at Zhao Ya, silently asking the reason.
"Just now, Miss Leng was talking nonsense in front of the princess, saying that if the second uncle married her, he would be able to suppress the princess, and that she would not die." Zhao Ya said truthfully.
After hearing this, Wan Niang couldn't help but get angry, "If Second Brother insists on marrying Miss Leng, then the door of my Lin family will never be open to him."
She patted her daughter's back gently and coaxed her, "Don't be angry, Sister Qing. Your second uncle will live in a separate house in the future. Even if Miss Leng comes in and acts arrogantly, she will never be able to suppress you, Sister Qing."
At the same time, there were bursts of screams coming from the gate of Yunfei Academy. An eight-foot-tall man was carrying two men and rushing down the mountain rapidly. The two men were still struggling and making sounds of resistance.
"Wang Lin, please let me down, or I will report you to my father-in-law."
"Linzi, your brother's back is about to split open. Put me down quickly. I can walk by myself."
Wang Lin, not knowing that he had lost points in impression again, ignored it and put the two grown men on their horses before saying, "Sister Qing is still waiting for me to pick her up. Don't delay."
Wang, Lin:......
As soon as he finished speaking, the neighing of a horse suddenly sounded. Wang Lin shouted "Go", and sped away in an instant, leaving a group of dumbfounded students looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Sir, where are we going next?" Ada asked, looking at the dust rising all over the sky.
Pei Yi, who was in charge of picking them up, shook his head and said helplessly, "Wait a minute, wait until Aunt Li's carriage comes, and then we can go together."
