Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife

Chapter 311 Extra Story 003 [-] Mistakes
Liang Siyu came here in a hurry, but seeing Jiang Yongjing in front, she slowly restrained her steps, and when she was in front of Jiang Yongjing, she squatted down and said softly, "Yu'er has seen my father."
Jiang Yongjing looked down at the beloved daughter in front of him, and couldn't help but think of her who hadn't gone to the Waizhuang back then. At that time, her language was also very filial, but how should I put it, no matter what she did, there was always a kind of personality in her bones that was different from ordinary Jiangnan girls. Tenacity and arrogance, I didn't expect that when I came back after a few years, all the edges and corners that made him admire were worn away. Presumably it was because he was cruelly driven to the Waizhuang and broke my heart?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yongjing was filled with self-blame, and looked at his daughter with softer eyes, "Yu'er, why are you here?"
Liang Siyu's eyes moved slightly, "My daughter saw a strange son in the backyard just now, so she wanted to ask her father, but is there a guest at our house?"
Jiang Yongjing nodded, "He is an important guest of our family." There was some regret in his tone, "I originally planned to stay for dinner, but he seemed to have something urgent, so he said hello and left."
Liang Siyu murmured in despair, "Have you left?"
Jiang Yongjing frowned, "Why, Yu'er, you..."
Liang Siyu immediately came back to his senses, "I'm just asking casually. If Dad is fine, my daughter will go back to the room first."
"Go!" Jiang Yongjing said dotingly.
After Liang Siyu walked away, his stepwife Wei came over from the path in the garden beside him, staring blankly at the direction Liang Siyu left.
Jiang Yongjing turned around and saw Wei Shi, and said: "Young Master Lu has already left, let's withdraw the table, and let people send the meals to each house and courtyard."
Seeing that Wei's expression was in a trance, Jiang Yongjing frowned, "Why are you absent-minded?"
Wei Shi pulled his gaze back and said worryingly: "My lord, I always feel that there is something wrong with Missy."
Jiang Yongjing snorted coldly, "What's wrong again, do you still want to get her out like a few years ago before giving up?"
That's right, when Jiang Yongzhen got Jiang Weiyu out back then, she put all the blame on Wei Shi. Aunt Jiang just took the title of "discord with her niece", and Wei Shi became a complete sinner instead.
Wei knows that Aunt Jiang is behind the scenes, but Aunt Jiang is a daughter of the Jiang family. On the daughter's side, Jiang Yongjing stood on the sister's side, and she had nothing to do.
So since Jiang Weiyu came out of the house, she has been stigmatized as a "vicious stepmother". The old lady looked down on her and didn't say anything, even her husband Jiang Yongjing was lukewarm to her.
Thinking of this, Wei's stomach is full of bitterness. Whose heart is not fleshy, she has nothing to do, plus Weiyu's clever and cute girl, she likes it very much, she originally regarded it as her own. The daughter stayed, never thought that she would be made like that by the great aunt of Dagui, but after going to the Waizhuang for a few years, even the stepdaughter was not close to her anymore.
In fact, Wei Shi thought, probably the reputation of him framed her had spread to the ears of Wai Zhuang Jiang Weiyu, so this girl always thought that her stepmother got her out. She just came back, before the matter was cleared up. Some conflicts are also normal.
But, didn't the former Jiang Weiyu have a bad relationship with his aunt?Why is the relationship so good when they come back this time? To put it in a rebellious way, many times Wei Shi secretly saw the harmonious atmosphere of the two together, just like a mother and daughter.
Hearing Jiang Yongjing's sarcasm at her, Wei smiled wryly, "I have no sons or daughters under my knees, I think, what good will it do me to get the eldest lady out? I can neither inherit your Jiang family's property, nor Taking a share of the pie and not dealing with her, wouldn't it be self-inflicted?"
Jiang Yongjing choked immediately, what he said made sense, but it was her fault for getting Weiyu out back then.
So even if you talk about it now, you can't forgive her for that matter.
Glancing at her coldly, Jiang Yongjing left with a flick of his sleeves.
When Jiang Yongjing disappeared, Jiang Yongzhen, who was hiding behind the rockery, curled her lips viciously, and she said, no matter how capable Wei Shi is, he can only come to his elder brother to apply eye drops, but no matter how much Wei Shi said, What's the use, the old lady and elder brother can doubt her, the Jiang family's daughter, because of a foreign daughter-in-law?Ah!
Jiang Yongzhen left quietly.
Wei Shi turned around slowly, his eyes fell on the position where Jiang Yongzhen had stood, his eyes were terribly cold and prey.
When Jiang Yongzhen returned to the yard, Liang Siyu had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw her, his face suddenly showed joy, "Aunt."
In order to prevent exposure, Liang Siyu called her biological mother "aunt", regardless of her predecessors.
Jiang Yongzhen's face no longer had the previous cold poison, and put on a soft and friendly look, "Yu'er is looking for something for me?"
Liang Siyu said directly: "I just saw a very handsome young man in the garden, and I want to ask my aunt if she knows him?"
Jiang Yongzhen took a sip of the teacup and said casually: "I heard that he is a distinguished guest from the capital."
"The capital?" Liang Siyu became even more curious, "Does my aunt know his details?"
Jiang Yongzhen put down the teacup and looked at her, "Why, is your heart moved?"
Liang Siyu was noncommittal, but the shy and crimson color on her face had already betrayed her budding spring heart.
Jiang Yongzhen is not a person who does not wink, "This is the Bodhisattva who the elder burns incense and asks to save the suffering. His status is extraordinary, and he cannot be the Jiang family's door-to-door son-in-law."
These words are to remind Liang Siyu in disguise that the purpose of coming to the Jiang family is to recruit a son-in-law to share the property, not to love each other.
When Liang Siyu heard this, his face turned pale.
Jiang Yongzhen got up and closed the doors and windows, and then she came back to sit down again, with a more serious expression on her face, "The one outside is not dead yet, once you let her take advantage of the loopholes, you will have to reveal your true colors. If you live a rich life enough , just go back to the countryside and find your father."
Liang Siyu gasped for a few breaths, with tears of fear in his eyes, "Mother, my daughter knows she's wrong, mother, don't be angry, I won't care about it in the future."
"What are you calling me!"
"Aunt...aunt."

Lu Xiuyuan returned to the Jinghuashuiju Inn in Fucheng.
Yi Bai had already had breakfast and was taking a lunch break, when he heard movement outside, he got up and opened the door.
Knowing that it was Lu Xiuyuan who came back, Yi Bai went directly to his room.
"Brother, did you finish talking so soon?" Yi Bai asked, seeing Lu Xiuyuan's unsightly expression, he raised his eyebrows again, "Did something happen?"
Lu Xiuyuan shook his head, "Unfortunately, I met an unpleasant woman in Jiangfu."
Yi Bai is so smart, when he heard it, he thought of the woman he met in the small town that day, "Could it be her?"
Lu Xiuyuan was very reluctant to bring up the girl he hated again, frowned, and changed the subject, "Have you ever eaten, Ah Bai?"
"I've already eaten." Yi Bai said: "Looking at my brother's appearance, he probably hasn't had lunch yet, so I'll ask someone to prepare it for you."
Lu Xiuyuan didn't say anything, it was his tacit consent.
Yi Bai got up and went downstairs, and asked the shopkeeper to prepare a table of delicacies for Lu Xiuyuan.
Due to being in a bad mood, Lu Xiuyuan lost interest in eating, and was removed after a while.
Seeing this, Yi Bai said, "Since the business has been negotiated, let's set off on another day!"
Lu Xiuyuan was silent for a moment, "Before I leave, I still want to go to that small town to try their Jiangnan cuisine." He has traveled all over the years and tasted so many delicacies, but only the dishes of that day have kept him thinking about them to this day. How delicious it is, it’s not necessarily true. After all, there is a Jiangnan top chef in Jinghua Shuiju. The dishes made are more authentic than the ones eaten that day. People seem to be very attentive, so that people who eat dishes can feel the warmth of home.
Specifically, Lu Xiuyuan couldn't say it, but in a word, there are only two words: special.
So special that it will never be forgotten.
-
It was already half a month before we went back to the small town. During this period, Lu Xiuyuan stopped by to check all the accounts of the Lu family's counters in the Jiangnan area.
The two brothers still lived in the same inn last time, and they also ordered Jiangnan dishes.
It's just, "The taste of this dish is not right." Lu Xiuyuan took a bite, put down his chopsticks with a frown, and looked up at the shopkeeper beside him, "Where's the cook from last time?"
The shopkeeper complained again and again, "Master, I don't know. The cook asked for leave and returned home early yesterday morning because of something at home."
In fact, it was Jiang Weiyu who took Nanny Sun away.
In the past 20 days, she earned ten taels of silver at the inn, which was enough for her to travel north. She was worried that the killer arranged by Jiang Yongzhen would chase after her. Jiang Weiyu did not dare to be greedy. It was not easy for her little daughter to be away, so she didn't force her to stay, and let her go, never thought that these two distinguished guests would go and come back.
Hearing that the cook had left, Lu Xiuyuan was filled with regret, but this kind of thing really cannot be forced, "Oh, forget it."
They didn't stay in the small town for long, and soon returned to Fucheng. Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai simply packed up their things and planned to return to Beijing.
When they came here, they took a private boat, and it was the same when they went back, so the brothers didn't have to hurry, and they went to the pier leisurely after breakfast.
The passenger ship bound for the capital had left today, and there were only a few sparse people left on the pier, which was clear at a glance.
When Lu Xiuyuan boarded his boat, he stood on the deck and looked down. Suddenly, he saw a woman among the crowd.
She was dressed very plainly, with only an ebony hairpin stuck in her hair, holding a bundle in her hand, and she was looking at the departure direction of the passenger ship with the nun next to her, and it seemed that she missed it.
What made Lu Xiuyuan feel strange was that she didn't seem to notice him, she just looked at the direction where the passenger ship was leaving, with a faint look of anxiety and annoyance on her pretty and fair face.
"What are you looking at, brother?" Yi Bai came over and followed Lu Xiuyuan's line of sight to see Jiang Weiyu, but he was only surprised for a moment before regaining his composure.
Lu Xiuyuan's lip line slightly raised, in a sarcasm, "Looking at a woman who is addicted to acting."
The first time I met her, she was extremely embarrassed, and I couldn't wait to use a worthless jade pendant to attract his attention. The second time I met, it was in Jiangfu, and he had every reason to believe that her so-called "hide and seek" was just because he had planned his arrival At the right time, she deliberately threw herself into his arms.
This time, is it possible that she still wants to chase him to the capital?
"Interesting." Yi Bai joked, "I've been chasing him so hard, it seems that I really care about my brother!"
Lu Xiuyuan twitched the corner of his mouth coldly, being pestered by such a woman, what good could it be?
He turned around, intending to rest in the cabin, and the attendant hurried up and said: "Young master, the government just posted a notice that the Yellow River's burst of quicksand is too large, affecting the canal, so we can't go on for the time being."
Lu Xiuyuan frowned, "Where's the passenger ship going north?"
The attendant said: "I have gone and returned, and I will land soon."
Although there is nothing urgent, Lu Xiuyuan was still a little annoyed that his schedule was interrupted like this, but there was nothing he could do about it, "Since you can't leave, let's go back!" Anyway, for a businessman like him who often travels on business, staying out of town for a while Two months is common.
The attendants collected the things on the boat, and Lu Xiuyuan took Yi Bai down first.
Jiang Weiyu hadn't left yet, she didn't notice the notice, she just saw the passenger boat on the canal going back and forth, she was happy in her heart, and her face showed joy.
However, that joy soon froze, because she saw a person she really didn't want to see walking slowly in her direction.
Grandma Sun was worried that the two of them were seeking revenge, so she habitually protected Jiang Weiyu behind her, and said to her: "Don't worry, girl, even if this servant is risking his life, he will protect you well. "Besides, this is a pier, and there are so many people, these two men will not bully a weak woman in full view, right?
When Lu Xiuyuan saw Nanny Sun's actions, the mockery in his eyes became even more serious.
Why, take the initiative to seduce when you are in your own house, and set up a memorial archway to pretend to be pure when you are outside?
How could Jiang Weiyu be the one willing to steal his life, she pushed Nanny Sun away, stood up and said indifferently: "What's the matter, you two, come to me, don't make things difficult for others."
Lu Xiuyuan stood still in front of her. Her appearance without makeup was completely different from her appearance with delicate makeup. She was delicate and frail when applying makeup, and she was extremely cowardly and artificial.
When she is plain-faced, she is gentle and pure from the inside out, exquisite and elegant, which perfectly interprets the characteristics of Jiangnan women. However, purity is only on the outside, and she has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth.
Lu Xiuyuan compared the "her" he saw in Jiangfu that day with her today, and he couldn't help admiring that this woman's acting skills are so good.
If he hadn't met three times before and after, he almost thought it was two people.
"Why, your father is worried that the Lu family will take over this order, and even arrange for the eldest lady to supervise?" Lu Xiuyuan greeted very politely. Of course, there is more irony in this "politeness".
Jiang Weiyu was stunned for a moment, she couldn't understand what the man in front of her was saying, she frowned, "Master, did you admit the wrong person?"
This time, Lu Xiuyuan squinted his eyes in astonishment, he couldn't have misread it, this is Jiang Weiyu, the eldest lady of the Jiang family, and she was the woman who threw herself into his arms on purpose that day.
But why is her indifferent expression and the seeming arrogance around her so completely different from that day?
Is it because her acting skills are too deep, or is she really admitting to the wrong person?After all, two people who are not related by blood look like this. His biological mother and the prostitute daughter of the Tai family are living examples, but Lu Xiuyuan feels that there will not be so many coincidences in this world. Rather than admitting the wrong person, Rather, it's all her tricks.
With a sneer, Lu Xiuyuan said, "Miss Jiang, how long do you want to play?"
Jiang Weiyu's back stiffened, this person actually knew her?
But in her memory, apart from meeting twice more than 20 days ago, they seem to have never met again, right?
How did he know his identity?
Frowning tightly, Jiang Weiyu planned to hang on to the end, after all, he could not figure out the details of the other party at all, if these two people knew the eldest aunt, then he would have to wait for death.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Weiyu raised his head to look at him, "The little girl really can't understand what the young master said, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."
She was waiting to catch a passenger ship to the capital, but she had no time to spend wasting time with him.
When they passed by, Lu Xiuyuan reached out and clasped her wrist to the back.
Jiang Weiyu was caught off guard and almost fell.
When he stood still, an angry expression appeared on his face, "What are you doing!"
The roar was not small, and soon attracted the attention of the pedestrians who disembarked from the passenger ship over there.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't want to attract crowds to watch, so he let go of her quickly, left without saying a word.
"Today's passenger ship can't leave."
"Inexplicable!" Jiang Weiyu muttered while rubbing his painful wrist, feeling that every time he met him, nothing good happened, it was terrible.
Grandma Sun turned pale with shock, "Girl, how are you?"
"I'm fine." Jiang Weiyu smiled, and then noticed the notice not far away, knowing that the passenger ship really couldn't leave, she turned her head, her eyes fell on Lu Xiuyuan's back, and she secretly said: Next time, it's better not to go again. Met this guy!
The master and servant turned around and walked out of the pier, intending to find an inn closer to the pier to stay in, so as not to miss it like today.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, it began to rain.
Jiang Weiyu didn't bring an umbrella, so he and Mammy covered their heads with their bundles and ran forward, stopping in front of a pastry shop to hide from the rain.
Jiang Weiyu stretched out his hands and kept patting the rainwater on his body to prevent the cold. When he raised his head, his face froze.
She was sheltering from the rain under the same roof as their master and servant, and there was also the man who had had an unpleasant quarrel just a moment ago.
Jiang Weiyu was looking at Lu Xiuyuan, and the other party also happened to look over, the cold eyes were not too ironic, she couldn't figure out why she would meet him everywhere, and the more times she met, the more she could refresh her perception of him.
This man seemed to look down on the poor people very much, no wonder he didn't even bother to donate ten taels of silver to her to buy the jade pendant that day.
Of course, Lu Xiuyuan couldn't look down on the poor people. What he looked down on was this woman who tried to get close to him again and again.
Wasn't he very proud at the pier before?Why are you chasing him now? How dare you say that you didn't chase him to the capital specially?
If Jiang Weiyu knew what he was thinking in his heart at this moment, he would definitely have a big fight with him, what the hell, so narcissistic?
It's a pity that the two people who disliked each other didn't plan to talk to each other, so the atmosphere remained deadlocked.

Liang Siyu came here in a hurry, but seeing Jiang Yongjing in front, she slowly restrained her steps, and when she was in front of Jiang Yongjing, she squatted down and said softly, "Yu'er has seen my father."
Jiang Yongjing looked down at the beloved daughter in front of him, and couldn't help but think of her who hadn't gone to the Waizhuang back then.

Lu Xiuyuan returned to the Jinghuashuiju Inn in Fucheng.
Yi Bai had already had breakfast and was taking a lunch break, when he heard movement outside, he got up and opened the door.

It was already half a month before we went back to the small town. During this period, Lu Xiuyuan stopped by to check all the accounts of the Lu family's counters in the Jiangnan area.
The two brothers still lived in the same inn last time, and they also ordered Jiangnan dishes.
It's just, "The taste of this dish is not right." Lu Xiuyuan took a bite, put down his chopsticks with a frown, and looked up at the shopkeeper beside him, "Where's the cook from last time?"

How could Jiang Weiyu be the one willing to steal his life, she pushed Nanny Sun away, stood up and said indifferently: "What's the matter, you two, come to me, don't make things difficult for others."
Lu Xiuyuan stood still in front of her. Her appearance without makeup was completely different from her appearance with delicate makeup. She was delicate and frail when applying makeup, and she was extremely cowardly and artificial.
When she is plain-faced, she is gentle and pure from the inside out, exquisite and elegant, which perfectly interprets the characteristics of Jiangnan women. However, purity is only on the outside, and she has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth.
Lu Xiuyuan compared the "her" he saw in Jiangfu that day with her today, and he couldn't help admiring that this woman's acting skills are so good.
If he hadn't met three times before and after, he almost thought it was two people.
"Why, your father is worried that the Lu family will take over this order, and even arrange for the eldest lady to supervise?" Lu Xiuyuan greeted very politely. Of course, there is more irony in this "politeness".
Jiang Weiyu was stunned for a moment, she couldn't understand what the man in front of her was saying, she frowned, "Master, did you admit the wrong person?"
This time, Lu Xiuyuan squinted his eyes in astonishment, he couldn't have misread it, this is Jiang Weiyu, the eldest lady of the Jiang family, and she was the woman who threw herself into his arms on purpose that day.
But why is her indifferent expression and the seeming arrogance around her so completely different from that day?
Is it because her acting skills are too deep, or is she really admitting to the wrong person?After all, two people who are not related by blood look like this. His biological mother and the prostitute daughter of the Tai family are living examples, but Lu Xiuyuan feels that there will not be so many coincidences in this world. Rather than admitting the wrong person, Rather, it's all her tricks.
With a sneer, Lu Xiuyuan said, "Miss Jiang, how long do you want to play?"
Jiang Weiyu's back stiffened, this person actually knew her?
But in her memory, apart from meeting twice more than 20 days ago, they seem to have never met again, right?
How did he know his identity?
Frowning tightly, Jiang Weiyu planned to hang on to the end, after all, he could not figure out the details of the other party at all, if these two people knew the eldest aunt, then he would have to wait for death.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Weiyu raised his head to look at him, "The little girl really can't understand what the young master said, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."
She was waiting to catch a passenger ship to the capital, but she had no time to spend wasting time with him.
When they passed by, Lu Xiuyuan reached out and clasped her wrist to the back.
Jiang Weiyu was caught off guard and almost fell.
When he stood still, an angry expression appeared on his face, "What are you doing!"
The roar was not small, and soon attracted the attention of the pedestrians who disembarked from the passenger ship over there.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't want to attract crowds to watch, so he let go of her quickly, left without saying a word.
"Today's passenger ship can't leave."
"Inexplicable!" Jiang Weiyu muttered while rubbing his painful wrist, feeling that every time he met him, nothing good happened, it was terrible.
Grandma Sun turned pale with shock, "Girl, how are you?"
"I'm fine." Jiang Weiyu smiled, and then noticed the notice not far away, knowing that the passenger ship really couldn't leave, she turned her head, her eyes fell on Lu Xiuyuan's back, and she secretly said: Next time, it's better not to go again. Met this guy!
The master and servant turned around and walked out of the pier, intending to find an inn closer to the pier to stay in, so as not to miss it like today.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, it began to rain.
Jiang Weiyu didn't bring an umbrella, so he and Mammy covered their heads with their bundles and ran forward, stopping in front of a pastry shop to hide from the rain.
Jiang Weiyu stretched out his hands and kept patting the rainwater on his body to prevent the cold. When he raised his head, his face froze.
She was sheltering from the rain under the same roof as their master and servant, and there was also the man who had had an unpleasant quarrel just a moment ago.
Jiang Weiyu was looking at Lu Xiuyuan, and the other party also happened to look over, the cold eyes were not too ironic, she couldn't figure out why she would meet him everywhere, and the more times she met, the more she could refresh her perception of him.
This man seemed to look down on the poor people very much, no wonder he didn't even bother to donate ten taels of silver to her to buy the jade pendant that day.
Of course, Lu Xiuyuan couldn't look down on the poor people. What he looked down on was this woman who tried to get close to him again and again.
Wasn't he very proud at the pier before?Why are you chasing him now? How dare you say that you didn't chase him to the capital specially?
If Jiang Weiyu knew what he was thinking in his heart at this moment, he would definitely have a big fight with him, what the hell, so narcissistic?
It's a pity that the two people who disliked each other didn't plan to talk to each other, so the atmosphere remained deadlocked.
