from widow to dame

Chapter 79

The next morning, when Su Huiniang opened her eyes, she knew that Yan Hongzhen had gone, because she didn't hear Xiao Hei's dog barking.

Poor dog, you have been thrown here by your heartless master again!Su Huiniang turned around, snorted twice, and secretly decided to ask Mu Xiang to throw two more bones to it later, at least to comfort her.

After breakfast, Su Huiniang was planning to go into the space, but Mu Xiang came over and said, "Someone is here from Yongping Houfu."

Su Huiniang was taken aback when she heard this.As soon as Xiao Qi left, they came running to invite him?

Frowning, she ordered, "Let her in."

The one who came to the Yongping Hou Mansion was a mother, but Su Huiniang also knew her. She was the torture mother who picked up Yan Hongzhen back then.

"... I heard that the girl has come to Beijing, so my wife wants to invite you to sit down..." The Xing Madam was smiling, but she never mentioned the real matter of Yan Hong, as if Mrs. Yongpinghou Just to invite her to sit down.

"The sedan chairs are ready outside." Mother Xing smiled and said, "Girl, let's go now. Don't make Madam wait."

Su Huiniang glanced at her quietly, and then said slowly: "This is really unfortunate, I have other arrangements today, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the appointment, why don't I pay a visit another day!"

Madam Xing didn't expect that a little "country woman" would really dare to refuse the call of the "Marquis of Yongping" mansion, and her complexion suddenly changed.

Su Huiniang looked indifferent when she saw it, she was also unhappy, you Yongping Hou Mansion invited me to come to visit, do you have to post a post in advance, now let the servants come over and "invite", or Put on a posture that you can't go, she, Su Huiniang, is not a maid of your Marquis Mansion, so why is she here whenever you are called.Of course, Su Huiniang has such a big "resistance" to the Yongping Hou Mansion, and it is also because of Yan Hongzhen's relationship. In her heart, the other party "abuses" her children. It is strange that she likes it .Mother Xing was sent away with an unhappy face, but Su Huiniang knew that the other party would not just let it go.Sure enough, the next day, an invitation was delivered to her.

"It can bend and stretch." Su Huiniang had a preliminary impression of Mrs. Qi.

She is not so timid, it is her nature to face up to difficulties bravely.

In front of the vermilion gate of the Marquis of Yongping, Su Huiniang got off the carriage. She raised her eyes and glanced at the two stone lions at the door, and raised her eyebrows slightly. You must know that not every duke's family is qualified to put this thing at the door Yes, this shows that the Marquis of Yongping, or the former Marquis of Yongping, has made great achievements and was loved by the emperor.After handing over the invitation card, the concierge gave her the corner door, and his own servants came to lead the way.Yongpinghou's Mansion is very large, at least four times the size of Uncle Weiwu's Mansion, and the courtyard is gorgeous, with pavilions, pavilions, glazed blue tiles, stone bridges without water, flowers and forests, and the atmosphere of wealth and nobility is overwhelming.

"Girl, follow closely, the Hou's mansion is huge, if you get lost, there is nowhere to look for you!" The maid who led the way laughed foolishly.

Su Huiniang seemed not to have heard it, but pointed to the lotus pond, and said to Mu Xiang beside her, "Did you see the goldfish in the water? It's called Huhu Chizhu. People in the Yuan Dynasty especially liked to raise this kind of fish. Speaking of which, this Yongping Hou Mansion used to be the mansion of a prince of the Yuan Dynasty, unexpectedly, even this fish was left behind."

What if your home is a luxurious garden?You haven't lived in a house that other people have lived in, and even showing off won't change your background as a nouveau riche, Su Huiniang mocked secretly with a slightly raised corner of her mouth.

The maid did not speak after hearing this.

Mrs. Qi didn't show her any intention to show her off, and soon met her in the side hall.

After seeing the ceremony, the two looked at each other.

Mrs. Qi reflected in Su Huiniang's eyes looks like a 26-year-old woman, she is wearing plain white clothes, with a jade hairpin pinned to her hair, she looks so quiet and gentle.In Madam Qi's eyes, the woman in front of her is plump, with ordinary features, but she has an excellent temperament. When those warm eyes look at you, you will feel as if you are bathed in spring breeze.

Madam Qi was the first to say with a smile: "I have to accompany the girl here."

Su Huiniang acted suspiciously.

Mrs. Qi then said: "I just found out yesterday that the girl had handed over the invitation to the mansion more than a year ago, but was detained by the servants of the mansion. I have already punished the concierge." , please don’t blame me, girl.”

"Ma'am, that's serious." Su Huiniang said with a light smile, "It's a thing of the past, so naturally I won't take it to heart."

"In addition, I also want to thank the girl." Qi continued: "I have heard from Xing's mother that Zhen'er has been living with you since he was young. He suffered a lot at that time. It is thanks to your help that he has been safe until now, and now that he has returned to the Hou Mansion, our family reunion is all thanks to you."

"I've always regarded Xiao Qi as my own younger brother. It's also voluntary to do these things, Madam doesn't need to worry about it."

"Xiaoqi?... Are you referring to Zhen'er?"

Su Huiniang nodded, unconsciously showing a bit of pampering: "He was ranked seventh at that time, so I called him Xiaoqi."

The expression on her face naturally couldn't escape Madam Qi's eyes, she just said quietly: "Miss Su and Zhen'er really have a very good relationship."

Su Huiniang smiled slightly.Seeing that she didn't answer, Mrs. Qi sighed to herself: "Miss Su also knows Zhen'er's temperament. He is stubborn. Ever since he entered the Hou's mansion, he has always... Sigh! Although I It's his aunt, but there are some things that are hard to say, and he seems to have misunderstood me..." Before Qi's words were finished, tears fell gently, that look was really compassionate Misunderstood miserably, just looking at it makes people feel pity.

Regarding the "knot" and "misunderstanding" mentioned by Qi, Su Huiniang understood the reason to three points.

This involves two people who have passed away, one is Yongping Hou Yan Haoran, and the other is a woman named Huo Xinting.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, due to the cruel and benevolent rulers, uprisings continued in various places. Large and small forces separated the land of the Central Plains, and the lords competed among each other.No one noticed that a man who was born as a farmer and had been a beggar rose up in rebellion. At that time, he probably didn't expect that he would become emperor in the future, but due to chance, his power gradually increased. Yan Haoran's idea was that the Yan family came from a merchant family. Although they were not very rich, they were also wealthy. Yan Haoran was naturally intelligent. He supported him with all his wealth, and even left behind his old mother, and followed his master all the way to fight the world. During this period, he met a subordinate named Huo who was by his master's side. A general, this surnamed Huo has a son, a daughter and two children who are serving in the army. Seeing Yan Haoran's handsome appearance, he has the idea of ​​getting married.Yan Haoran also agreed, so he and Huo Xinting held a wedding. Within three years, she was pregnant and gave birth to a boy. However, before the baby was born, they encountered an enemy attack. In times of crisis, Huo Xinting saved her husband with her own life, leaving only the words "Take care of our son" before she died.

This child is naturally Yan Hongzhen, and everyone knows about the future, let’s not talk about it for the time being, just talk about Yan Haoran. His mother and brothers brought him to the capital from their hometown, and Mrs. Yan saw that her son had achieved success and fame, so she reminded him to marry a daughter-in-law as soon as possible. I said his mother was angry at the time, to the effect that if you don’t tell me such a big thing, do you still see me as a mother? Yan Haoran explained that the war is busy, and his son travels around with the army. There is really no channel to notify you.

Mrs. Yan refused to let it go, she just said: "Without the nodding approval of my parents, and I haven't passed the horoscope, if you change it, this marriage doesn't count!!"

Yan Haoran fell silent when he heard this.If you want to ask why, it's not because he is so filial. In fact, he also has his own little thoughts. Just a few days ago, he met a young lady who looked so weak and beautiful. Proficient, she is really a lovely woman.It should be said that most men in this world are "forgetful". Huo Xinting's son who sacrificed his life to save her, and who is far away and doesn't know how he is doing, has long been forgotten in front of the new beauty.

Mrs. Yan's words were exactly in line with his thoughts. If someone uses this matter to attack him in the future, there will be a prevarication, and it's not that he didn't pick up the child and came back. It's not too late to pick up again!

In this way, as the days passed day by day, Yan Haoran successfully married the beauty in his heart.Half a year after the two got married, the Huo family came to the door, and it was only then that Qi knew that she was a step-wife, and that she also had a legitimate son who didn't crawl out of her stomach.This is really more disgusting than swallowing a fly, but he is a high-ranking and educated person, and he is neither loud nor noisy, just crying, quietly, silently, crying heartbroken, crying to Yan Haoran with a heart It was almost broken, and he immediately stated that he would never get that child back in his lifetime, and make his wife angry.

Only then did the beauty stop her tears, and the two reconciled as before. Afterwards, the Huo family's power was greatly reduced when they committed a crime, and naturally no one cared about the child who didn't know whether to live or die.

Yan Hongzhen was tacitly "forgotten!" by everyone.
