Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 168: Entering the City (1)
If Hou Ye knew that Xiao Su was doing well, although he felt relieved, he must be a little concerned. He felt that Xiao Su didn't have deep feelings for him, and if he didn't take him seriously, there would be a rift in his heart, and he would be angry. , definitely don't want to pick her back immediately.

This is in line with Mrs. Tai's wishes. Mrs. Tai can delay for a while, and if she procrastinates, time will pass, and no matter how deep her feelings are, she will wear away.

In the evening, after Marquis Changwu came back from Sandu, Qi's mother came to ask questions immediately. Qi's mother said according to Mrs. Tai, Huo Yuan was relieved a lot, and at the same time, he felt complicated.If Su Wan was willing to cry and beg him, he would take her back no matter what, but she refused to bow to him and seemed to be living well there, which made Huo Yuan feel a little uncomfortable.

He had known for a long time that Su Wan didn't like her that much, but seeing that she really didn't care about him now, he still felt a little uncomfortable.While feeling sorry for her, he couldn't help feeling angry.

You know, although he felt sorry for Su Wan and had no choice but to send her away, he didn't completely forgive her. He thought that Su Wan was at fault, but he tried every means to protect him because he had her in his heart. Unfortunately, she didn't Not appreciative, this is tantamount to pouring a basin of cold water on his head.

Now, he felt that it would be good to send Su Wan to live in Zhuangzi for a while, and take this opportunity to reflect on herself, let her realize her mistakes, know what she can do and what she can't do, so as not to make mistakes in the future.Thinking of this, Huo Yuan's heart that had just softened hardened again.

Although Su Wan didn't know Madam Changwuhou's plan, she could guess a little bit.Therefore, when she first left the mansion, she never thought that she would be taken back.

The days passed day by day, and soon it was the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May.

As early as a few days ago, Lufu and the others had already put on newly made clothes, with five-color satin bats slanting on their sideburns, and bought talismans such as the Celestial Master Talisman and the Five Poison Talisman on the door early to drive away poison and avoid evil spirits. To guard against plague gods, he also bought realgar wine and calamus wine, swept the room and courtyard, hung calamus moxa sticks outside the door and in the hall.

I also made zongzi with Mrs. Zhou, which have flavors such as bean paste, pine nuts, dates, and walnuts.

Mrs. Dingyuan Houfu Shizi also ordered people to bring calamus wine and zongzi, etc. Su Wan also asked the people of Dingyuanhoufu to bring home the zongzi made by herself for them to taste.Of course, because the vegetables here are excellent, I specially asked someone to bring a large cart of fresh vegetables back.Although it is not expensive, it represents Su Wan's heart.

In addition to this love, on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival, Su Wan also sent someone to Su's residence, and sent rice dumplings, vegetables, game, and some precious medicinal materials, and asked people to tell Zhao and Su Wen that on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Because of illness, I couldn't return home.At this time, Shoushan Academy should also be on vacation. Although Su Wan knew that Su Wen would be disappointed if she didn't go back, it was really not suitable for her to go back at this time.

In addition, Emperor Xian De also sent people to deliver things, besides rice dumplings, there were also some daily necessities, and most importantly, he also sent people to send a lot of ice.

There was no movement in Changwuhou Mansion, and Su Wan didn't care.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather gets hotter.

Even in the suburbs, Su Wan felt a little unbearable, so the ice came in handy.

And because of the large quantity, there is no need to save, and it can survive the whole summer and there is still leftovers.I usually make some iced sour plum soup, iced watermelon, and iced mung bean soup to relieve the heat.

Because of her previous life's health, Su Wan paid great attention to health preservation. Even if it was hot, Su Wan would not drink too cold food. Most of them were eaten by the maids, and occasionally they were rewarded to Ma Shi and others. After all, they also Being honest and never being lazy in doing things, Su Wan is quite satisfied.

This morning, two luxurious carriages and some horse-riding guards suddenly came from outside the village.

Among them, in the most gorgeous carriage, a lady about 20 years old opened the curtain and looked at the environment of the yard in front of her, with a bit of pity in her eyes, and sighed: "It's so simple and shabby, my sister actually lives in here?"

Afterwards, he gritted his teeth and said: "This Marquis of Changwu's mansion is really deceiving! Even the better Zhuangzi is reluctant to let my sister live. This is obviously ruining my sister!"

The person who came was Chen Yaqin, the wife of the Marquis of Dingyuan. In her eyes, this Su Wan-looking manor house was very simple and unremarkable.In particular, Changwuhou's mansion has several generations of dignitaries with profound heritage, so don't they even have a good mansion?You know, these nobles would occasionally live in Zhuangzi for a while, and the place must be well built.

Chen Yaqin suppressed her dissatisfaction with Marquis Changwu's Mansion and asked someone to call the door.

"Excuse me... Who are you looking for?" The person who opened the door had gray hair and the image of an old farmer. He was black and thin, and outsiders called him Old Suntou. Although he was a servant of the Hou Mansion, he had never been to the Hou Mansion in his life. Although he had a son, he was sick in bed and his family was very poor. Seeing that he was honest and had very good legs and feet, Su Wan asked him to watch the door.Seeing that the visitor is either rich or noble, he stutters a little.

When there is no owner here, naturally it is not so particular, but when Su Wan comes, this place naturally becomes more particular.Even outside the second door, there are women guarding the door, all selected from Zhuangzi's servants, Su Wan will send some monthly money every month, and they also earn some money to subsidize the family.

"We are from Dingyuanhou's Mansion. The lady in the carriage is our eldest son's wife, who is also your wife's friend. I came to visit your wife specially today." said the woman of Dingyuanhou's Mansion.

When the old grandson heard that the person was from the Dingyuanhoufu, his face relaxed a lot. He knew that the Dingyuanhoufu often sent things over, and when he heard her words, he had no doubts at all, and immediately said: "So it's Dingyuanhoufu. The people of the Yuanhou Mansion, I will pass on a message, please wait a moment, Mrs. Shizi."

After the old grandson finished speaking, he closed the door.After the wife came, the door was often closed, which was specially ordered by the Hou Mansion.

When Su Wan heard the gatekeeper's mother-in-law say that Chen Yaqin was here, she was surprised and delighted, she got up and went out to greet someone while asking someone to come in.

After Chen Yaqin entered the second gate, she saw Su Wan walking out excitedly.

"Sister—" Chen Yaqin couldn't help but feel sad and shed tears as soon as she opened her mouth.

Seeing this, Su Wan's eyes were a little sour, and she immediately called out to sister Qin, walking in front of Chen Yaqin without stopping.

"Why did my sister come here suddenly? I just heard that my sister came, and I couldn't believe it." The two held hands affectionately, looked at each other, and when they calmed down a little, Su Wan took her hand They walked in together with their hands and asked.

Although Su Wan and Chen Yaqin have not known each other for a long time, and the number of times they have met can be counted on one hand, they seem to have known each other for a long time, closer than sisters. Compared with Zhao, Chen Yaqin seems to be her real loved ones.
