Chapter 30
The Zhuxuan arrived soon, separated by the clump of green pruned bamboos, Rong Tiancheng became timid and almost dared not take a step.This daughter, his actual eldest daughter, when was the last time he saw her?a decade ago?What is she like now?How is your temperament?Will you hate him?And what should he call her?Is it the same name and surname, or is she called Xue'er?
Rong Tiancheng lingered in front of the bamboo forest for a long time before finally mustering up the courage to walk towards the bamboo pavilion.The door of Zhuxuan was open, and it could be seen that there was no one inside.Rong Lanxue is not here?Rong Tiancheng heaved a sigh of relief for no reason, but just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard someone in front of the west window asking, "Who are you looking for?" Tian Cheng suddenly remembered this.
Standing in front of the window was Rong Lanxue, and she raised her heart to her throat nervously as soon as she asked.Because she suddenly thought, in this heavily guarded Rong Mansion, apart from the Patriarch Rong Tiancheng, which adult man would dare to enter the backyard alone?And Rong Tiancheng is her own father, how could she not know him?Shouldn't she just expose her time-traveling identity?
But what she never expected was that when Rong Tiancheng turned around, his expression of nervousness was no less than hers. He put his hands in front of his body and put his hands behind his back, repeating this several times, Only then did he finally speak: "Are you Xue'er?"
Are you Cher? !He used a questioning tone!Did she hear correctly? !Rong Lanxue's eyes widened in surprise. Could it be that Rong Tiancheng didn't recognize her?Then she was nervous just now?
Seeing her like this, Rong Tiancheng became embarrassed, and said, "It's been more than ten years, and Xue'er has grown up to this size."
It turned out that they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, that is to say, not only did Rong Tiancheng not give his biological daughter living expenses, but he also didn't even see her once.The way Rong Lanxue looked at Rong Tiancheng suddenly became unfriendly.
Rong Tiancheng smiled wryly, then stood outside the window and asked, "Xue'er, what are you and your mother doing in Linjiang?"
Why, can't they come to Linjiang?Rong Lanxue said angrily: "Life can't go on, otherwise no one will come to you!"
"Can't make it through? How is this possible?" Rong Tiancheng was greatly surprised, "Didn't I send you money every year?"
Rong Lanxue said angrily, "We have never received any money."
Rong Tiancheng wondered: "Didn't the third uncle give you money? I send money to him every year and entrust him to pass it on to you."
Rong Lanxue was half-believing, just shook her head, and said, "Those relatives in the same family have long stopped interacting with us, and as for the third uncle, it's been a long time since we've seen each other."
Surprised, Rong Tiancheng became even more angry, and said: "I have to go to him to find out." After speaking, he said to Rong Lanxue: "Xue'er, you will come back to Rong's Village with me tomorrow, and I will face you in front of you." Face to face with him."
But Rong Lanxue refused: "This is a matter between you adults, I don't care. All I want is the living expenses for these years and my dowry. After you give it to me, I will leave immediately."
This is not her daughter's attitude towards her father. Rong Tiancheng was a little angry and more disappointed, but he also knew that all of this was caused by himself and he could not blame others, so he could only sigh and said: "These, Let’s talk about it after I meet your mother.”
Rong Lanxue sat down on the stool and said, "Well, I'll wait for you right here."
Rong Tiancheng breathed a sigh of relief again, and it took him a long time to suppress it, then turned his head and left.
Not long after Rong Tiancheng left, Ba Yiniang listened to her stomach and asked Rong Lanxue about the situation in a roundabout way, asking what Rong Tiancheng had said.Rong Lanxue said that it was just an ordinary father and daughter reminiscing about the past, and she didn't answer anything else.Ba Yiniang wanted to find out Rong Tiancheng's attitude towards Ye's mother and daughter, but she was a little disappointed when she couldn't ask any questions, but on the way back, she suddenly remembered that Rong Tiancheng still left Rong Lanxue at home. If he had to drive her out, wouldn't that already explain his attitude?
After thinking about it, Ba Yiniang became excited, there might be a good show of seizing the heirloom in this mansion!
Passing through Qicai Residence, I saw Seventh Aunt sitting on the porch, being combed by a maidservant with her long black and shiny hair, Eighth Aunt paused, walked over slowly, and said hello: "Seventh Sister, good hair!"
Rong Tiancheng's return made Qi Yiniang look much gentler, she raised her head and smiled at Ba Yiniang, and said: "Ba Yiniang went for a walk in Zhuxuan?"
Ba Yiniang said without hesitation: "Yes, I heard that Master has just been there."
Qi Yiniang's heart rose inexplicably, and she asked, "What about Xue'er?"
Ba Yiniang smiled: "Sit there and suck the soles of your shoes."
Did Rong Tiancheng chase Rong Lanxue away?Qi Yiniang's eyes lit up obviously: "Ba Yiniang feels at ease now."
Ba Yiniang looked at her and smiled meaningfully: "Seventh Sister should feel at ease now, it's not in vain that I came here to tell you."
What a monkey, she is indeed much more sophisticated than the others. Fortunately, she has no leverage in her hands, but she is just using her a little bit.Qi Yiniang cursed secretly, pretended not to understand, and went to tease the oriole in the cage.
Ba Yiniang also looked up and sighed quietly: "After all, we are just birds in this cage. Even if we change the world, it's the same. It's just that the master is easy to please, or hard to please."
Seventh Yiniang also made her say these words sad, she was silent for a long time, Fang said: "We still have children here, so we feel that life is hard. Those who have no children, don't they want to jump into the lake?"
"That's true." Ba Yiniang pulled up the corners of her mouth and forced a smile, "There are always people who are more pitiful than me. If you think about them more, you will feel better."
Seventh Yiniang did not speak, but cast her gaze into the distance.
Ba Yiniang stood for a while, then turned around and left.
In the evening, the whole family had a dinner together, but there was still no figure of Rong Lanxue on the table, which made the eighth aunt who had only just given birth to a little bit of joy feel nervous again, and the seventh aunt was also uneasy.Fortunately, Mrs. Ye has not come back yet, everything is still uncertain.
After dinner, the dark clouds that had been deposited all day finally began to change qualitatively. Lightning flashed and thundered, and strong winds blew up. In the middle of the night, heavy rain poured down, enveloping the entire Rong Mansion in a curtain of water, making it hard to see clearly.
Although the weather was bad, Rong Tiancheng still went out early the next morning. Of course, what he told Jiang was to patrol the shops. Anyway, there are many shops under his name, and some of them are not even in Linjiang County. So it's normal to go out for a few days and not come back.
But with Jiang's shrewdness, she couldn't guess one or two things, but she was happy to see such a result, so she pretended to be deaf and dumb, and let him go.
Rong Tiancheng didn't return for several days, the Rong mansion was calm on the surface, but it exploded in private.Why wasn't the first thing he did after he came back was to rush Lan Xue out of the house?Could it be that he wants to welcome Mrs. Ye back and give her a title?The minds of all the aunts became active, some were waiting to sit on the sidelines, and some were waiting to fish in troubled waters.People like Seventh Yiniang who had planned long ago were uneasy. At one moment, they were worried that the matter would be revealed and they would be dragged into the water. At the same time, they felt that it was very likely that the Ye family would squeeze out the Jiang family, and their emotions were agitated.
Under Qi Yiniang's instigation and threats, Ba Yiniang visited Zhuxuan frequently, and inquired about Rong Lanxue's news in various ways, mainly asking what Rong Tiancheng said to her that day, and whether he made it clear that he would keep her in Rong's residence. Did you promise to give Mrs. Ye a title?Rong Lanxue was so annoyed with her all day long that she just dealt with her, so she simply told Jiang and went out to the streets.Although she is penniless, it is good to have an eye addiction, it is better than staying in Zhuxuan to deal with Eighth Yiniang.
As soon as he left the alley, he met Jiang Zhiyuan. It seemed that he was always wandering around Rong's residence.Jiang Zhiyuan was very excited to see Rong Lanxue, so he asked Jiang about it.Rong Lanxue told him very sorry that Jiang Shi had pushed the matter of meeting him to Rong Tiancheng, but Ye Shi would find an opportunity to tell Rong Tiancheng.
Jiang Zhiyuan thanked her and walked along the street with her.Rong Lanxue saw that he was dressed cleanly and neatly as always, and his manner was gentle and polite, but he wanted to go to the Jiang family with all his heart, so she couldn't help being curious, and asked him gossipingly, "Why do you have to go to Rong's mansion?"
Jiang Zhiyuan smiled faintly, and said, "I want to study in a private school in Rong's mansion."
That's all?The Jiang family would refuse to see relatives for such a trivial matter as entering a private school?Rong Lanxue didn't believe it: "Then why doesn't the Jiang family even see you?"
Jiang Zhiyuan was silent for a while, and said: "My cousin has no children. My father wants to adopt me to his family. Because of this, my cousin is unhappy, so she doesn't want to see me. But I want to tell her, I didn't have such thoughts at all, so I insisted on going to Rong's mansion to study in a private school, avoiding my father, so as to reassure my cousin. Unfortunately, she refused to see me at all. "
Jiang's natal family is rich, while Jiang Zhiyuan's family is poor, but he does not want to follow his father's arrangement to adopt him, but he has some backbone, Rong Lanxue gave him an appreciative glance.
At this time, Jiang Zhiyuan asked her a question: "Who are you from the Rong family?"
Rong Lanxue said truthfully: "Rong Tiancheng is my father, but he left me and my mother in Rongjia Village for more than ten years. We couldn't survive in the village, so we had to go to Linjiang County to visit relatives."
There is such a thing?Jiang Zhiyuan was very surprised, but this was the Rong family's housework, so he didn't ask any further questions.
As they walked, a shoe store suddenly appeared in front of them. Rong Lanxue smiled at Jiang Zhiyuan, waved goodbye, and said, "I'm going to go in for a stroll, so please go ahead."
Jiang Zhiyuan smiled and said, "You girls just like to go shopping."
But Rong Lanxue said: "I don't have the money to buy things, but I want to see if there is any way to make money." After saying that, she went to the shop.
Jiang Zhiyuan followed curiously, and said, "You want to make money by yourself?" He looked at Rong Lanxue with obvious admiration, and then laughed at himself: "You are a scholar with nothing to do, you are a woman, you can make money." Make money by myself, I am a big man, but I can't earn a penny, even if my family is poor, I can't help you with anything."
Rong Lanxue looked down at the various shoes on the counter, and comforted him: "Study is a serious business. Why can't you earn money when you are in high school? As for the poor family, the so-called sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold. Don't worry." Don't be discouraged, as long as you study hard, you will have a good life."
Jiang Zhiyuan was amazed that she was able to utter poems, so he took out a few more poems and asked her, Rong Lanxue was able to handle them all smoothly, and the way he looked at Rong Lanxue changed immediately.And Rong Lanxue took the opportunity to point out some calligraphy and paintings hanging in the shop, and asked him to teach her how to recognize some characters.
Jiang Zhiyuan was very surprised, since she could recite poems, why couldn't she read?
Rong Lanxue said with a smile: "The poems are read by others, so they memorize them. How do you know how to write them?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhiyuan felt more and more that she was very intelligent, so he was more than happy to teach her how to read, and promised her that if he could successfully enter the private school in Rongfu, he would be her teacher and teach her how to read and write.
