Chapter 44 Guess
Wang Yanqing was silent for a while, "Are you really going to the capital?"

"Uncle Yanqing, I've always wanted to find the person who saved my life. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be where I am now." Chang Luoyun's soft eyes were firm.

"But you found him just to say thank you?" Wang Yanqing was a little suspicious.

"I will do my best to thank him," Chang Luoyun laughed, "Uncle Yanqing, besides you and Biyan, the person I want to thank the most is him. Let me have no regrets."

Wang Yanqing sighed.

Back then, he heard that Xiuzhu's accident was already a month after her death, and when he tried hard to find out the whereabouts of her daughter, Yun'er had just recovered from a serious illness.A girl in Shui Lingling, born thin and out of shape, doing nothing all day long, just sitting in the room in a daze.

He thought that she was about to die, but one day she suddenly told him that she was going to find the murderer who killed her grandmother and mother, and she was going to find the person who saved her life.

Since then, Yun'er has studied embroidery seriously every day. Although she looks happy and peaceful on the surface, only he knows that she actually has a kind of cruel cruelty towards him.

This kind of ruthlessness allowed her, who was originally very talented in embroidery, to be able to move the needle like a brush in just three or four years, and the embroidery was wanton, free and easy, and exquisite.

In the past two years, she began to think about Kesi, and her embroidery is even more exquisite. A piece of Kesi of hers is hard to find in Xia Kingdom.

It was also in the past two years that Jishun's pawnshop was able to flourish and become famous in Qingzhou.

Wang Yanqing was silent for a while, and said: "In a few days it will be your mother's birthday. Since you are going to Beijing, let's celebrate your mother's birthday in advance this year."

Chang Luoyun's eyes moistened slightly, and he replied softly: "Okay!"

After coming out of Jishun's pawn shop, Bi Yan whispered, "Girl, Wu Ma is here."

When she was still in the weaving department, Chang Luoyun told Wu Ma to look for her in the courtyard of Zhuxi Lane if there was anything to do.Wu Ma must have seen that she hadn't returned to Chang's house, so she came here.

Back at Zhuxi Lane, Mama Wu was already waiting in the yard, and Xiao Wu brought a stool for her to sit on the wind and rain corridor outside the hanging flower gate.

Seeing Chang Luoyun, she hurried over, "Girl, why didn't you go back to Chang's house?"

Seeing the anxiety she was holding back, Chang Luoyun ordered Biyan to pour tea for her without any haste, and led her into the house.

When she got to the house, she found a box from the hidden compartment and handed a piece of paper inside to Mama Wu.

"What is this?" Wu Ma took the paper and asked suspiciously.

"You can tell by looking at it." Chang Luoyun said with a smile.

Wu Ma opened the paper and only read two lines before her hands trembled, "Girl."

"From now on, you will be free," Chang Luoyun said, "I said that I will give you a pension, and you don't need a contract for the pension."

"Girl." With tears in her eyes, Mama Wu trembled and couldn't speak.

After the Pei family took charge, the Chang family had already sold many old people at a low price. It's not like Wu Ma didn't think about it. When she was old and weak, she would be sold at a low price sooner or later.

However, she was so lucky to meet the fourth girl.

Chang Luoyun smiled lightly, "Wu Ma, from the day my aunt died, the Chang family is no longer my home." Her tone was flat, without any waves, "I went back a while ago, It's because I was too young when I went to Zhuangzi, and I was afraid that I didn't understand some things, but now I understand.

You don't have to worry, look," Chang Luoyun turned to look at her, "This yard and Jishun's pawn shop are all mine, and now I can live well without relying on the Chang family.

No matter how bad it is, I still have you and my own hands. She turned around, looked out the window and said with a melancholy voice, "If my mother hadn't died back then, we would have lived a good life if we left the Chang family.

I don't want to marry into Hou's mansion, and I don't care to be Mrs. Hou. If I can choose, I only want my aunt to live, to accompany me to grow up, and to teach me to be a lady. "

"Girl, if Miss Han is alive in heaven, I don't know how comforting she is to see you so promising." Wu Ma's eyes were full of tears, "It's just that the capital is far away, and the scenery is the same when entering the palace, but she is actually startled every step of the way. Heart, girl, you need to be careful."

"Mama Wu, don't worry, I should be cautious." Chang Luoyun said.

"In the past few days, I have walked around the pharmacy in Qingzhou, but I didn't ask anything. I wondered if the poison back then didn't come from the pharmacy.

Just looking it up like this is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. "Mama Wu was a little frustrated.

"If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing." Chang Luoyun said: "Since we already know who it is, so what if there is no evidence? It's just a matter of time.

It will be my aunt's birthday in a few days. I want to go to the temple above Fengming Spring to save my aunt before entering the capital. You can go with me. "

Wu Ma immediately said: "I can go with the girl to recite scriptures for Miss Han. This old slave can't ask for it. When I go back, I will copy the "Ksitigarbha Sutra". When the time comes, I will take it to the temple and pray for my lady."

-

In the Chang family's inner house, Chang Pu paced back and forth several times with a sullen face and hands behind his back, while Mrs. Pei was sitting on the rose chair next to her with a gloomy expression.

After walking again, Chang Pu stopped and turned around and asked, "Are you sure she left the county palace at noon?"

Chang Sheng stood at the bottom, lowered his head, and said: "Since the fourth girl entered the county palace, the servant has been guarding outside the county palace according to the master's instructions. The fourth girl entered the county palace at noon, and only got on the carriage to leave at the end."

"Carriage?" Chang Pu's eyelids twitched. There are few horses in Qiguo, and most people use ox carts and donkey carts. There are really few in Qingzhou that can have carriages.

"Can you see whose carriage it is?"

"There is no conspicuous mark on the carriage, and the driver is a five or sixty-year-old man, whom I don't know."

"Master, even if you want to be a concubine for a rich man, you still have to be ordered by your parents. If you follow me without a name, Yun'er is too degrading yourself and the Chang family." Pei said bitterly: " What do you want Yaoer and Yuner to do in the future?"

Chang Pu's face darkened again. If he had known that she would be like this, he might as well let her stay in the country for the rest of her life.

"Changsheng, if you go to inquire again, you must find out where the fourth girl went." Chang Pu said.

Changsheng agreed to go.

Mrs. Pei sat and sneered, "So what if you find her, she won the first place in the embroidery competition now, and she is going to enter the palace, can she still be beaten to death according to the family rules?"

Chang Pu was so annoyed by her words that he almost jumped up, "Aren't you in charge of this house? You are also in charge of the child. Are you dissatisfied with me by saying this now?"

Just now, Mrs. Pei only thought that Chang Luoyun's scandal would definitely involve Chang Luoyao and Chang Wenyun. She didn't think about what would happen to Chang Pu at the moment. Seeing Chang Pu angry at this moment, she was startled and had no choice but to give in.

"Master, am I also in a hurry? I'm a woman and I haven't seen much in the world. Seeing Yun'er like this, I don't know what to do right now, so I don't know what to say.

In a few days, she is going to enter the palace with the princess of the county. You said, even if she did something ugly, what can we do with her? We can't just swallow her like a fly. "

How could Chang Pu not understand this truth? Just now he knew that Chang Luoyun won the first place in the embroidery competition, and he was very happy for a while, but it turned out like this.

"No matter what, let's talk about it after finding her first." Chang Pu was silent for a while, and said, "If she really went to meet someone privately, then it's better to marry her while not many people know about it than to be told about it." It’s good to make nonsense."

Pei curled her lips, acquiescing to Chang Pu's decision.

If it wasn't for the fear of hurting Yao'er and Yun'er's reputation, how could she take advantage of her like this.

Thanks to her luck, if she hadn't followed the princess into the palace, the daughter of the Chang family would have been beaten to death for committing such a scandal.
