Renzi Scroll, Section 27: Tranquility and Ease Before the Storm (8)

 "Really? Brother Feng really said that?"

Xing Xiuyan's words suddenly caused all the girls gathered in the main hall of Xiangyun Pavilion to raise their eyes and look at her. Xing Xiuyan, who had always looked at her calmly, felt a little panicked. She quickly turned her head and handed the topic to Miaoyu.

.

"Really, Brother Feng just said this in front of my younger sister and Sister Miaoyu when we were drinking tea in the Cuicui Temple. If you don't believe me, ask Sister Miaoyu."

Drinking tea in the Cuicui Temple?

Just when Xiangyun, Tanchun, Xichun and the other girls standing aside turned their attention to Miaoyu, Daiyu's mind fell on the word Congcui'an mentioned by Xing Xiuyan.

.

Why did Brother Feng go to Cuicui Temple?

In Daiyu's impression, the relationship between Brother Feng and Miaoyu was very weak, and they had almost no contact. Even if they met, they didn't talk much. Why did they suddenly go to Cuicui'an?

Moreover, Miaoyu has a very withdrawn temperament and is not welcome to wait for idlers. In Daiyu’s impression, except for Xiuyan, the other girls in the garden, including herself, have only entered the Cuicui Nunnery a handful of times. As for Miaoyu,

I'm afraid it will be even more difficult for Yu Feng Cha.

Others may not understand, but Daiyu is aware of the expenses in Guancui'an, which is even bigger than her own Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Her half-sister was nominally a Buddhist practitioner, but in Daiyu's eyes, she was just a rich and idle person who borrowed the name of an insider.

If you never tire of fine food and fine food, then you should be more particular about your diet than yourself, and you should pay even more attention to tea tasting, which will cost you even more.

Even the monk's robes are just a few plain colors of green, white, gray and blue. The materials are Suzhou and Hangzhou silk and satin or Songjiang fine cotton. The shoes on the feet are also customized by the famous Qingyunfang in the capital city.

In the words of this sister, she has been used to it since she was a child. The Jia family's food is quite acceptable, but she doesn't like thick linen and other materials for her clothes.

Even Zicuckoo murmured behind her back that she was too particular about these things and that she had been accustomed to them since she was a child.

Daiyu also vaguely knew some of the reasons. Her father always felt that he was a little short-changed because he did not bring Miaoyu and her daughter into the family, so he never treated him badly in terms of expenses. Not only Miaoyu, but also his nun who is still in Suzhou.

The concubine who lives in the nunnery is a concubine who is not considered a concubine. Aren't they also well-dressed, well-fed, and pampered?

The annual expenses cost hundreds of taels, and the Lin family pays for them. This was what his father told Brother Feng before his death. Brother Feng briefly mentioned it to him, but did not go into details, just because he was afraid that he would worry or be unhappy.

, it’s just that I never care about these things.

I guess that my sister has followed the example of my concubine and has been like this since she was a child. But just like this, can it still be regarded as a monastic life of cultivating Buddhism and seeking Taoism?

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Miaoyu's face, and an unnatural expression flashed across Miaoyu's face.

Other girls may have thought that Miaoyu was withdrawn and shy, and was a little uncomfortable with it, but Daiyu felt that it was more than that.

Miaoyu served tea. Did she have some other meanings in it? But she had mentioned it to her many times in the past few years, and she always refused. However, this year, her attitude of refusal seemed to be less firm. Dai

Jade didn't know if it was her imagination, but now it seemed that her sister might have changed her mind.

The others did not have as complicated and subtle thoughts as Daiyu, and their attention was attracted by the sentence "Just because you are engaged does not mean there will be no changes."

Miaoyu glanced at Daiyu with a guilty conscience, and found that her sister lowered her eyes as if she was thinking about something. She felt more and more uncomfortable. However, facing the eagerness of Xiangyun, Tanchun and the others, she could only bite the bullet and say what she had just said.

The situation was narrated once.

"Sister Miaoyu, are you saying that Brother Feng's tone is very positive?" Tan Chun frowned deeply.

She is a person with ideas and opinions, and she trusts Feng Ziying more. If Brother Feng says this, there will be no mistake.

Although Brother Feng also said something like this last time, this kind of matter is a private matter of each family. Even if Brother Feng is the Prime Minister of Shuntian, it is impossible for him to interfere in this kind of thing.

But even under such circumstances, Brother Feng still firmly believed that something had changed, and Tanchun was a little unsure.

So what if they are just not sure? For women in the boudoir like them, the marriage decided by their parents or elders is the final decision, and there is no room for maneuver unless something like Bao Qin happens, but that is something no one is willing to do.

Faced with it.

Bao Qin had the chance to meet Brother Feng and let him marry her, but if Xiangyun encountered such a thing, where could she meet such a beloved person?

"Well, although Brother Feng said it might be possible, my little sister could tell that Brother Feng's tone was very certain." Xing Xiuyan also sounded very sure.

Xiangyun forced a smile and said, "Sister Xiuyan, you don't need to comfort me. I can bear it. How can there be room for change in this kind of thing? Unless the Sun family takes the initiative to cancel the engagement, but..."

Although she also knows that Xiuyan is not the kind of person who likes to exaggerate, but her marriage is dead now, how can there be any changes?

She had never thought about renouncing the relationship, and it was not a good thing. Both of her uncles were obsessed with getting her to marry Sun Shaozu, thinking that Sun Shaozu would prosper in the future, and the Zhenguo family was involved in the process. It can be said that

This was a done deal, and she couldn't think of any other changes.

"But Brother Feng is indeed..."

Xing Xiuyan was still a little unwilling, but Shi Xiangyun interrupted her: "Brother Feng is not omnipotent, and he could not have predicted such a thing..."

When Li Wan walked in, he happened to hear Shi Xiangyun mention Feng Ziying, and when he saw Xing Xiuyan talking to Shi Xiangyun, he was also shocked.

She went back and took a good bath, then lay on the bed for a while, then got up and changed her clothes.

Suyun must have seen something, but there was nothing he could do. There were various bruises on the chest and abdomen between the clavicle, and one of the bellyband straps was broken. Everything in the inner clothes all indicated something.

Even though Suyun is inhumane, she has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running in the mountains. Her body is no secret to her personal maids. Now her walking posture is a little strange, and her private parts are even more unusual. Plus that damn...

His cloak was riddled with bullet marks, which could not be covered up at all.

However, Li Wan still didn't say anything to Su Yun. It wasn't that he wanted to hide anything, but he just felt that the time hadn't come yet, so he wanted to let her doubt and worry for a while.

This kind of thing cannot be concealed at all, unless he and Feng Ziying break off from now on and never have any contact with each other again, but can he do it?

Li Wan himself had no confidence in himself. No matter what aspect, Li Wan found that he might need to rely on the other party in the future.

When his ancestors and his father-in-law and mother-in-law put all their thoughts on Baoyu and selectively ignored Langeer, and in the future when Rongguo Mansion was still facing a battle for the eldest house and the second house, Li Wan suddenly discovered what Feng Ziying said

Maybe you are right. If this is not done well, the Rongguo Mansion will really fall apart and the building will collapse.

"Hey, what are you two arguing about? Xiuyan, girl Yun is in a bad mood, why don't you give in?"

Li Wan pretended to be calm and even took the initiative to talk to Xing Xiuyan to show his composure.

Xing Xiuyan probably sensed something, but she was not sure, so Li Wan had to strike first and overwhelm the other party with momentum, making the other party think that she had misunderstood.

Xing Xiuyan was really stunned by Li Wan's preemptive strike.

The other party seemed very calm and composed, completely without the panic and anxiety just now. Could it be that I really misunderstood her?

Thinking of the sticky thing on his hand, Xing Xiuyan was disgusted and felt that he couldn't explain it. What else could it be if it was pickled?

It can be seen that the other party is so relaxed and calm, and coupled with Li Wan's performance of keeping integrity for so many years, it is said that the master and his wife have expressed their opinions that they can let her remarry, but Li Wan flatly rejected them. If you really want to steal a man, what's the point?

Do you deserve this?

"Sister-in-law, there's nothing to argue about. I'm just telling Sister Yun about Brother Feng's point of view. This is what Brother Feng said in front of Sister Miaoyu and me when we were having tea at Huancui Temple, but Sister Yun still refused to believe it...

…”

Xing Xiuyan told the whole story, but Li Wan was moved in his heart.

After she and Ziying got along well, Ziying disapproved of Baoyu marrying a daughter from the Niu family, and even said that good fortune lies in the misfortune, and misfortune lies in the blessing. The implication is that the Jia family seems to contain great risks.

He asked himself deeply, but he refused to say more. He only said that the situation in Beijing this year and next will not be good, and there may be big changes.

This also means that the engaged marriage between Sun Shaozu and Shi Xiangyun may have changed. Where did this change come from? Does it refer to the same thing?

Could it be that the Jia family, the historians, and the Wang family are all involved? I'm afraid it's impossible for the Xue family. Baochai and Baoqin are both married to him, and Xue Pan and Xue Biao have their own business, and they are also being watched by Ziying.

But the three families of Jia Shi Wang...

Li Wan is not a woman who knows nothing about external affairs. Her father mentioned various things in Jinling in the letter to her.

My father mentioned in his heart that Jinling was currently restless. The public opinion in Jiangnan was very dissatisfied with many of the imperial policies. Voices criticizing the cabinet could be heard all day long in the Seven Ministries of Nanjing. Even my father, who had retired from the Nanjing Imperial College, often offered sacrifices to the Imperial Academy.

I heard that people often came to visit me during this period, and they were all well-known characters in Jiangnan Shilin. The implication was that they wanted to borrow from my father's reputation.

Although my father had some literary talents and had served as a priest in the Imperial College for several years, he did not get along well with the civil servants in Nanjing's officialdom, otherwise he would not have been forced to become an official in his fifties.

Now someone wanted to pull my father back, and my father was naturally a little moved, but there seemed to be something hidden behind it. Even though my father was not sensitive to these aspects, he still smelled something, so he never agreed.
