"My wife, is this considered reconciliation with A Lang?"
On the carriage, Yun Niang looked at Qingrong and asked guessingly.
Qingrong glanced at her and smiled with unknown meaning, but her tone was calm, "I don't know when you became so bold? How dare you offend the male protagonist?"
Yun Niang was stunned, "Madam, do you know?"
"Well, you have always been prudent and prudent. When did you become so bold and not afraid of scolding you?"
Yun Niang lowered her head and said: "My maid is just not worth it for you! Your Majesty is kind-hearted in planning for Alang, but he actually wanted to divorce you after getting the benefits. Aren't you angry? If I think your maid can't do this.
It’s okay, let the lady handle it.”
Azhen and Songyue were also shocked when they heard this. Qingrong smiled and asked: "Don't be afraid. I don't ask you to punish you. Do you regret doing that?"
Yun Niang did not hesitate and shook her head, "My maid has already thought about it. Even if A Lang becomes angry and punishes me, I will still say something for my wife."
Qingrong looked at her, shook his head and sighed softly: "Next time, you don't have to do this for me. It's a good intention to stand up for others, but in the end, you will get into trouble and get burned. Fortunately, A Lang didn't take it seriously, and others would
Not necessarily."
Yun Niang was startled, feeling a little moved in her heart, and nodded in agreement, "Yes."
"I was indeed angry that day. As for now...it can't be considered a reconciliation. But there are more important things at the moment, so these small things should be put aside for the time being."
Azhen said: "I don't know, Madam, that day Alang came to the house to look for Madam. I saw that his expression was very lonely. He must have worked hard for a few days, and he looked very haggard."
Qingrong shook his head and smiled, "Him? Doesn't he usually only have one expression?"
Azhen nodded and thought, and couldn't help but laugh, "That's true. A Lang usually has a cold and sullen face. Although he doesn't mean any harm, he just can't get close to others. He only looks better when facing his wife. He is willing to
If you say a few more words, you will feel very impatient towards people like us."
Qingrong was amused, "Is it such an exaggeration?"
Songyue saw it clearly, and she advised: "Alang doesn't seem to be a heartless person. Maybe he is just thinking wildly and misunderstanding something? Now that my wife and Alang can talk things over, let's put aside the misunderstanding for the time being."
Azhen raised her voice and said: "If this is the case, then we should give him some lessons so that he can learn from them and let him dare to say these things in the future and make our wife sad."
Qingrong couldn't help but agree: "This is indeed the case."
Yun Niang laughed at her and said, "I didn't expect that A-Zhen is so powerful at such a young age. Listening to what you said, it seems like you don't have to worry about being wronged when you get married in the future."
A few people joked and joked, which made Qingrong calm down, and the unspeakable feeling of emptiness seemed to be reduced a lot. Qingrong did not forget his promise to Chang Ning. After returning to Lide Hall,
So he secretly ordered people to pay attention to Xue Yan's movements, find out who he was interacting with, and report everyone who came and went from the house.
However, after a period of time, Qingrong found that Xue Yan, apart from being on duty, practicing martial arts every day, and getting together with colleagues and friends, was quite normal.
It was not until the end of April that Yun Niang came to report that one of Xue Yan's personal guards had received a letter. The letter seemed to be sent from Xizhou. However, it only confirmed that Xue Yan and Xizhou
There is contact there, it seems that there is someone important there, but the identity of the other party is not clear at all.
Qingrong felt that it was difficult. She couldn't ask him face to face. If it was false, it would be ugly. But if it was true, Xue Yan might not tell her truthfully, which would only cause more trouble.
When she was at a loss, good news came. The soldiers led by Xue Shao had traveled day and night and had already arrived at the border of the Western Regions. Ye soldiers and horses were arriving one after another, and their morale was high. After all, Xue Shao was capable of being a general.
The whole army broke through the siege and relieved the enemy, and both sides retreated to defend the camp.
As soon as the news came back to the capital, the saint was overjoyed. More and more people came to visit Xue Mansion to congratulate him, which was in stark contrast to the previously neglected court. Qingrong attended the birthday banquet hosted by his second sister-in-law Qin, and was also effortlessly welcomed.
The Xue family and guests became the "protagonists", and even the Chu family lost their cold eyes towards Qing Rong and became more polite... Qing Rong had to rush around to help Qin take care of the table before hiding.
This scene of several cars is flattering.
Xue Shao's third aunt Cui also attended the New Year's Eve banquet. When she left the banquet, she saw that it was still early and took Qingrong with her to her residence. During these days, Qingrong also often went to Cui's place.
Qingrong believed in Buddhism and loved the way of maintenance. Qingrong was also familiar with these. Among the young people, it was rare that he could chat with Mr. Cui.
"Oh, sitting on that banquet, listening to the chirping of the female relatives around me, it really gave me a headache. Now that I'm leaving the banquet, my ears have become much clearer." Mrs. Cui sighed.
Qingrong couldn't help laughing, "My aunt really loves to joke."
"I'm fine, but I see that you probably won't have much time to spare, so I have to drag you to my house today to teach me scriptures and interpretations." Mrs. Cui felt that Qingrong's words were very good. She was the mage of Lingbao Temple.
It's not necessarily better than that. She doesn't like to go to the temple on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month to crowd with others to listen to scriptures, so she is very looking forward to Qingrong coming to her house as a guest.
Qingrong shook her head and said with a smile: "How could that be? If my third aunt wants to listen at any time, just ask me. I don't like to socialize outside, so I might as well read more scriptures to feel more comfortable."
Mrs. Cui nodded and smiled, and couldn't help but sigh softly when talking about Xue Yan, "It's rare for you to have such an awareness at such a young age. It's really unusual. I think my Liulang should learn from your temper. He always does things."
If he is impetuous, he should be asked to recite these Buddhist sutras more often and cultivate his moral character."
"Rokuro is still young. He will naturally improve with more experience in the future. Auntie, there is no need to worry too much."
Cui said: "Parents are naturally worried. I think Changxuan has lost a lot of his temper after marrying you. I don't expect him to be like Changxuan, at least he can marry a wife and have children properly.
Start a family and start a career, just don't let me worry about it anymore."
Qingrong could only smile and comfort her: "Don't worry, uncle, it will happen naturally."
The two of them walked to the upper room and happened to meet Xue Yan who had returned from outside.
Xue Yan saw that Qing Rong was there, and his expression was a little complicated for a moment. Cui saw Xue Yan standing there stunned, with an embarrassed look on his face, and reminded him: "Why are you so ignorant of etiquette?"
Xue Yan came back to his senses, saluted and said, "Sister-in-law."
Qingrong didn't care, nodded, smiled, and returned the courtesy with her hand folded.
Mrs. Cui saw that Xue Yan was also here, so she took the initiative to mention: "You came just in time. Sanniang is about to explain the scriptures and interpretations to me. You should come and listen together."
Xue Yan didn't believe Shi Lao at first, and thought it was all nonsense. He felt a headache when he saw the smoke lingering in Cui's house all day long. Ever since Lu Qingrong came often, he felt that Cui was possessed by a demon and always praised her.
Lu Qingrong... I don't know what this woman is capable of, but she has frightened his family into being stunned. Brother is like this, even his mother has fallen into her trap, and now he wants him to sit down and listen? It's simply ridiculous!
Thinking of this, Xue Yan looked at Qingrong with a more complicated look. He frowned and shook his head to refuse, "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you. I'll take the first step."
Mrs. Cui was dissatisfied when she heard this, so she stopped him and said, "What's the matter with you? You're running out all day, and you're all about to get married. Don't you know how to settle down?"
"Aniang!"
Seeing that the atmosphere between mother and son was not good, Qingrong had to advise: "Third aunt, don't worry, Liu Lang might have really important things to do. If he doesn't have time, forget it. It doesn't matter. If there is something wrong next time,
Sora…”
Xue Yan interrupted loudly: "I won't be free next time either!"
"Liu Lang!" Mrs. Cui yelled, "How could you be so rude to my sister-in-law! Why don't you apologize to her quickly?"
Apologize? Then the other party must be worthy of it? Xue Yan refused, and strode away with a look on his face.
Ms. Cui stayed where she was and was furious. Seeing the way the two mother and son got along, Qingrong could understand why Mr. Cui was so keen on health care and cultivation. She was afraid that otherwise, she would be killed by Xue Yan one day.
The bastard fainted from anger. Seeing that Mrs. Cui had no thoughts at this moment and was not in a good mood to disturb her anymore, she said goodbye and left.
After Mrs. Cui said sorry to Qingrong several times, she rushed to Xue Yan's room angrily.
"Why were you so rude just now? Sanniang came here with good intentions, but you kept a dark face and said nothing, and you still spoke in such a rude manner. I don't know where you learned this!"
Xue Yan was angry when he heard this, "Good intentions? Mother, do you know her as a person? You know she has good intentions, but maybe she has ulterior motives? Who doesn't know her abilities? My brother was promoted to the rank of Zhonglang General at such a young age, especially this time.
The saint personally appointed him as his deputy, and I'm afraid it will be even more extraordinary in the future. It seems that she is good at calculation, opportunistic, and a villain who knows how to deceive people. The saint was deceived by others, and even you are the same!"
Mrs. Cui was shocked and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about! How dare you make up random things to blame the saint! Where did you hear these crazy things?"
Xue Yan looked very disdainful, "Humph, even if those of us in the Xue family flatter her on the surface, who doesn't think so in their hearts? It's just because I got her favor, otherwise he would be better than us brothers.
Where to go?”
Xue Yan probably never realized that when he said this, he was more upset than happy that Xue Shao got this opportunity, and felt that he was unworthy... But even if he found out, he would never admit it.
Mrs. Cui looked at him in disbelief, "Are you crazy? You are so rebellious and arrogant! This is the ostomy industry! Even if Shiro is favored by the saint because of Sanniang, so what? No one has selfish motives, they are husband and wife,
What's wrong with planning for your husband? Those people are jealous and bitter, and all of them talk high-sounding words. But if it were them, they would be even more arrogant than Sanniang, and they would be domineering in this house. But look,
Is Sanniang like this? She is humble and submissive from beginning to end. If we say she is good at calculation and opportunism, I am afraid those people are experts!"
"Who knows what she is thinking?"
Cui said: "I don't know what she is thinking, but I know that she has always treated me with respect, humility and courtesy. As a junior, she has nothing to blame! Then I will treat her with courtesy!
You keep saying that she is wrong, but has she done anything to harm you? Is she unfair to you? Or is she disrespectful and neglect you?"
Xue Yan stopped talking.
"No, so what's your point of dissatisfaction and accusation? No matter what your reasons are, find a time for me to apologize to Sanniang."
Xue Yan was unwilling and did not respond.
Ms. Cui said anxiously: "I'm talking to you, do you hear me? You don't take me as a mother seriously now, do you?"
Xue Yan said in a dull voice: "No."
"Then you go when I tell you to go, not only because of your rudeness, but also for the sake of the brotherhood between you and Changxuan in the future. If you do this, won't you make it difficult for your brother to be a good man in the middle? Besides,
, we may have to rely on them and his wife in the future, so don’t offend them easily."
When Mrs. Cui saw that he remained silent, she asked again, "Are you going?"
Xue Yan was very impatient when he heard this, so he had to respond loudly: "Go."
