After that, the people at the door saluted. Because Jingwan's grandfather and eldest uncle were not on vacation, they were busy with official matters at the yamen. Of course, even if grandfather was at home, he would not come out to welcome them. At a glance, the people from the first branch, second branch, and third branch were all present. With the addition of the servants, it was a dark mass. Jingwan felt dizzy just looking at it. Then, there was also fourth uncle's family who came to the capital with them. Hehe, it would be lively in the future.
Jingwan greeted the elders. Although these people were all smiling, many of them were definitely unhappy, especially the cousins of the same generation. Because of her, they had to spend at least half a month on the journey. It was obvious how much Old Madame doted on her. After all, Fourth Uncle's youngest son and Old Madame's youngest grandson had been under Old Madame's watch since birth, but they were not as doted on as her.
In this family, apart from grandfather Luo Peishan, Old Madame had the highest status. It went without saying what it meant to be doted on by her. Especially in the grandchildren's generation, several of whom were about to get married.
Jingwan looked at her parents, whom she hadn't seen for three years. They were almost the same as three years ago. Father Luo Rongyan was still indifferent, and mother Madame Zhang was still beautiful and untainted by worldly affairs. To be honest, the husband and wife were a good match. They were both people who treated money like dirt and pursued romance. It was a blessing to be able to live like this for the rest of their lives. It was just that the children had to work harder. She didn't mind, but as for the rest, she still had her brother to support her.
Looking at her mother, who was about to cry because of her illness, Jingwan could only smile and comfort her.
"Mother, you must be tired from the journey. Go in and have a good rest. We can talk about other things later, okay?" She stepped forward.
Jingwan and Luo Rongyan looked at each other, reached a tacit understanding between father and daughter, and consciously took a step back.
Old Madame saw her second daughter-in-law's reaction and felt helpless. She also missed her children and grandchildren, so it was good to let them talk first. So she took her second son's hand and said, "Wan Wan, go back with your mother first. You don't have to come over. You can pay respects to your grandfather tonight." After Jingwan agreed, they walked into the mansion and asked about the situation in the capital. The others followed closely behind.
Madam Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and touched and looked at Jingwan. She asked a series of questions from her head to her heels. Madam Zhang held Jingwan's bony hand and thought of her fair and tender daughter when she left Qi 'an Manor three years ago. She couldn't hold it in anymore and tears rolled down her face like a broken string of beads.
Jingwan had been enduring the discomfort and patiently answering her every question, but now … she sighed helplessly in her heart. "Mother, I'm really fine. I'll be fine in a few days. Don't cry, okay?" While wiping her tears with a handkerchief, she winked at her brother. But the bastard who stayed behind for her sister shrugged his shoulders at her, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
However, this interaction made the estrangement that had formed between the siblings over the past three years disappear without a trace.
"Furen, don't cry. If you continue crying, Third Young Miss will feel uncomfortable and her body will be even more uncomfortable. Don't you think so? The most important thing now is to let Third Young Miss rest. "A seemingly gentle and dignified woman gently advised from the side.
When Jingwan heard this, she glanced at her. She had never seen her before. She was standing behind her mother and had a matronly hairstyle. In addition, there was her father's concubine next to her. Her status was self-evident. She was probably married in the past three years. But who was she acting like she was more like a legitimate wife than her mother? Since her mother couldn't hold it up, then as a concubine, you should obediently hide. Madam Zhang unconsciously stroked her stomach, but Jingwan didn't say anything.
"Right, right." Madam Zhang hurriedly wiped her tears, "Wan Wan, Mother won't say anymore. Let's go back first. Mother has already decorated your courtyard. Take a look. If there's anything you don't like, tell Mother and I'll change it for you."
"Mother decorated it. There's nothing bad about it." Jingwan said with a smile.
Just as she was about to enter the Luo fu, she seemed to feel something and looked back. Diagonally across the road, under a crooked tree, there was a carriage covered in green cloth. There was no special symbol on it. Because of the shade of the tree, she could only vaguely see that the curtain seemed to be half hanging. As for the situation inside the carriage, she couldn't see at all. There wasn't even a shadow outside the carriage. Could it be that there was someone in the carriage? Was someone watching her? It was most likely an illusion.
From the moment Jingwan came down from the carriage to the moment she entered the Luo fu, Li Hongyuan stared at her without blinking. He used all the strength in his body to prevent himself from rushing over the moment she appeared, snatching her in front of everyone in the Luo fu, and then crushing her into his flesh and blood. "Wan Wan, Wan Wan …" He repeatedly warned himself that it was still far from the time. There would be a day when he would officially marry her and make her completely and completely belong to him.
An Yi, who was behind the carriage, heard his master's whispers and faintly smelled the faint smell of blood in the carriage. It was very inconceivable. He had followed his master for six years. Although there was blood on his master's body countless times, it wasn't his. He didn't even see a scratch on his master's skin. Now, he just saw that Miss Luo and he hurt himself?
"An Yi, send the prepared things over." Li Hongyuan's voice was hoarse and tired after using all his strength.
An Yi was shocked again and again. That Miss Luo wasn't some national beauty. As far as he knew, that Miss Luo came to the capital for the first time. Since his master was born, he had never left the imperial city. Why was his master's obsession with her so deep? No, it wasn't just an obsession. It was simply a demonic barrier.
There must be a secret that no one knew about. It wasn't something that they could find out. Stopping all thoughts and strictly adhering to one's duty was the right way. Master had always been fair in his rewards and punishments. If you overstepped even a little bit, you would definitely regret walking in this world. And if it was related to Miss Luo, if you attempted to pry into his inner secrets, it would be better to die than to live.
"Yes." Ever since Miss Luo left Qi An fu and started to feel unwell, Master had received an incomparably detailed message from the shadow guards. During that time, Master was particularly violent. The more details he knew, the worse his mood would be. However, if the shadow guards dared to leave out even a little bit, they would have to be prepared to go to the Yellow Springs. In the eyes of these people who served him closely, it was simply self-abuse.
On the surface, everyone was affected by him. Once this person went crazy, even if it was those princes and princesses, which one of them didn't retreat to some extent. Even the Emperor had endless headaches and made him scram far away. If there was no reason, don't enter the imperial palace, not to mention secretly …
In fact, the most miserable was still the Ministry of Works. Jin Qinwang's carriage was uncomfortable and requested them to modify the carriage. After so long, there was no progress and he almost smashed the entire Ministry of Works. Meeting such a demon king, they could only pray for their own good fortune.
Collecting countless things that could alleviate Miss Luo's discomfort, turning around ten or eight corners, they had to send things to her. Now, they could naturally use the same method to send the best nourishment over. Nobody would know. Even if someone went to investigate, they wouldn't be able to find any traces of deliberate actions from beginning to end.
"Make proper arrangements in Luo fu. Don't give the matter of Wan Wan to that stupid woman, Zhang-shi."
"Yes." An Yi felt powerless. According to Master's current attitude, that stupid woman would definitely become Master's mother-in-law. Was it really good to talk about your future mother-in-law like this? She just didn't let your sweetheart rest in time?!
"Return to the fu."
"Yes."
Quietly arriving at Jin Wang fu, Li Hongyuan came down from the carriage, "Prepare water, bathing and changing clothes."
Mu Gonggong hurriedly ordered people to prepare. Upon closer inspection, one would find that his clothes were almost soaked with sweat, and there was a bit of blood at the corner of his mouth that hadn't been wiped clean.
Silently and quickly preparing everything, Mu Gonggong walked to the door and closed it. He only glanced at An Yi and quickly moved his line of sight away, without the slightest intention of asking.
