Chapter 538 Suspected to be an old friend
The old lady's eyebrows sank, "Qianqian, is what she said true?"

Luo Qianqian panicked, "No, grandma, she is the one who lied!"

The old lady looked at the female waiter and said in a gentle tone, "Please tell me what happened."

Seeing how amiable the old lady of the Luo family was, the waitress had also heard of her virtues, so she hurriedly said truthfully, "My dear, it was indeed this girl who first took a fancy to this pair of earrings."

In one sentence, it is made clear.

Luo Qianqian was so angry that she secretly glared at the female waitress, but was glared at by Old Madam Luo, so she could only lower her head in grievance.

Old Madam Luo looked at Liu Yue and Shi Liu and said in a gentle tone, "Miss, I am really sorry. My granddaughter has been spoiled by her family. If she has offended you, I will apologize to you on her behalf."

This old lady is very easy to talk to, completely different from her granddaughter. Liu Yue muttered to herself and quickly waved her hand, "It's okay, just make it clear." As long as you don't snatch the earrings from her, she will be very easy to talk to.

Old Madam Luo smiled, nodded slightly, and prepared to take her granddaughter away. She believed that she could not teach her granddaughter in front of outsiders.

She was about to leave when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a bracelet sticking out from Shi Liu's wrist, and her face suddenly changed.

"Miss, can I see the bracelet on your hand?"

Shi Liu was stunned. Look at her bracelet?
What’s so special about this bracelet? There are a lot of bracelets on the counter and this one looks great.

But her bracelet is also very special. It was an engagement token sent by the Fan family last year. Later, she heard Fan Jin mention that this bracelet was Lu's bracelet when she was young. She cherished it very much and specially gave it to her as a token of love for her.

But seeing the old lady's anxious eyes as if she wanted to find out something, Shi Liu paused, but still lifted her sleeves to reveal the pair of bracelets.

When Mrs. Luo saw clearly the hollow carved bracelet made of red gold and inlaid with pearls, her pupils shrank slightly. She looked at Pomegranate carefully again, as if she was looking at someone through her, and suddenly frowned.

Shi Liu felt uneasy when she looked at him, and couldn't help but ask, "Madam, do you recognize this bracelet?"

"Can you tell me who gave you this bracelet?" Old Madam Luo asked hurriedly.

Shi Liu pursed her lips and said nothing. Judging from the old lady's expression, she must have recognized the bracelet. So, did she recognize Lu? Was it an acquaintance or a feud?

If it was the latter, she certainly couldn't just say it was from the Lu family.

Seeing the defensive look on the face of the girl opposite, Mrs. Luo also realized that she was a little excited and scared the girl, so she quickly warmed up her expression and said, "My maiden name is Lu. The bracelet on your hand looks very familiar to me. It is very similar to the bracelet I gave to a young man in my family, so I wanted to ask about it. I have no other intentions. Don't be afraid."

Shi Liu was shocked when she heard that her maiden name was Lu. Judging from her age, she might be some aunt of the Lu family.

It was not convenient to have a conversation in the busy Jinxiu Pavilion, so Mrs. Luo invited Shi Liu and the other two to go to the teahouse across the street to have some tea.

In the private room on the second floor, after sitting down for a while, Mrs. Luo asked again, "So, can you tell me, who gave you this bracelet?"

Shi Liu paused, not sensing any ill will from the old lady, and said truthfully: "This bracelet is a token of my future husband's family's promise to me."

When Mrs. Luo heard this, she suddenly realized something and said, judging from the girl's age, she might be A Yan's daughter, but her appearance does not look like her. So this is the case.

Since A Yan gave this pair of bracelets as a small betrothal gift, I guess he really likes this girl.

She couldn't help but secretly look at the girl again. She was calm and generous, and her demeanor was really good. She nodded secretly, and her expression became kinder. "Is your future husband's surname Fan?"

Pomegranate nodded, "Yes."

Mrs. Luo smiled and said, "That's it. I guess you haven't heard that your future mother-in-law is actually a cousin of my mother's family. I gave her this bracelet when I went back to visit my parents."

So it was really like this. Shi Liu was surprised and said, "Is it really like this? I really don't know this little girl."

Madam Luo sighed, "It's normal that you don't know. I haven't seen Ah Yan for many years."

Ayan lost her mother when she was young. Because the two families lived close to each other, it can be said that Ayan was raised by her. Later, her parents arranged a marriage for her and she married into the Luo family as a second wife. It was so far away from Guangling County that even if she wanted to go back to her parents' home, it was extremely difficult.

I only received a letter from Ayan, and I knew that she was engaged and the marriage was going well.

Later, her husband was promoted and transferred to be the prefect of Yannan. She took her children with him to the post. On the way, they passed by Dacheng Prefecture, so she deliberately went back to Guangling County to visit her relatives. She also sent a message to Ayan to ask her to come back.

This pair of bracelets was given to her at that time.

Knowing that she had married a scholar, that her husband was handsome, and that the couple were deeply in love, she felt relieved.

Later, she followed her husband to a new post, moving around the country, always without a fixed time, and it was inconvenient for her to communicate, let alone the chance to go back to Guangling County. Even when her parents died, her husband died of a sudden illness while in office, so she couldn't have both...

Come to think of it, she hasn’t seen A Yan for almost twenty years.

After coming back to her senses, Mrs. Luo asked about Shi Liu, "Ayan, is she okay?"

Shi Liu looked at the expression of remembrance on Mrs. Luo's face and was also curious, so she gave her a general account of the situation of the Fan family.

Mrs. Luo's eyes were red when she heard this. "Her husband died of illness so early? It must have been hard for her to raise her son alone..."

"Fortunately, my son is doing well. You just said that this Jin brother has already won the title of scholar, right? He is a promising child!"

"I haven't seen Ah Yan for a long time, and some things can't be explained in just a few words. Anyway, I'd like to trouble you to go back and tell Ah Yan that I've settled down in the capital and will be staying there from now on. If she has time, she can come to visit.

By the way, Jin Ge'er should participate in the imperial examination in the future, right? When the time comes, let Ah Yan accompany Jin Ge'er. You just found out where my house is. It is the residence of Doctor Luo from the Ministry of Personnel. It is in Yong'anfang, the third house after entering Tongluo Lane. "

Mrs. Luo was so excited that she couldn't help but talk a lot.

Forget it, looking at Shi Liu, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. By the way, I haven't asked you your name yet? Why did you come to the capital? When did you come?"

Although it was strange that the engaged girl was still running around, I thought maybe she came with her family?
After all, she is Ayan's future daughter-in-law, and also her nephew's granddaughter-in-law, so she should also care about her.

Although Shi Liu was puzzled as to why they had never exchanged letters in all these years since they were such good aunt and niece, seeing that the old lady's eyes were red with excitement, she really missed Lu.

He immediately said, "Madam, my surname is Li, my name is Shi Liu, and I just arrived in the capital two days ago."

"Pomegranate? This name sounds full of blessings!" Old Madam Luo laughed, "Don't be so formal, just follow Jin Ge'er and call me great aunt."

She felt a little embarrassed to call this relative, who she hadn't even acknowledged yet, "great aunt." But seeing the earnest look in Old Madam Luo's eyes, Shi Liu pursed her lips and still called out, "great aunt."
