Chapter 9 In fact, after He Ran came back, Mr. He and Mr. Yan, and even Mr. He and Mr. Lin, who had a wait-and-see attitude towards the matter, all thought that Mrs. Wu'an Hou would come back soon to verify her true identity.
But Mrs. Wu'an Hou did not come, and now she has asked people to send things over from the capital. Obviously, she will not come in the short term.
Don’t you take it seriously?
Aren't they desperately urging the He family to find their daughter?
Why is she no longer in a hurry now that she has been found? Yan's lips were blistered, and her armpits hurt so much that she couldn't even lift her arms.
"Isn't this just playing tricks on us?"
Mr. He glared at her. If it weren't for her, how could he have ended up in such a situation, being led around by others? He had not slept well these past few days, and Yan looked very haggard. His sallow skin was shiny, his eyes were black and blue, and there were two deep lines from his nose to the corners of his mouth. In particular, there was a soybean-sized blister on his lips. Mr. He even found a few dandruff on her hair, which was also shiny! Mr. He moved his body to the side. When he was young, why did he feel that Yan was elegant and gentle, like a bird? He also specially named her "Yuehua".
At that time, he felt that compared to Yan, who was as beautiful as the moonlight, Lao was just vulgar. Even if no makeup was applied, he still had an innate gaudy look; even if he had just taken a bath, Mr. He was still looking gorgeous. I think she smells like an oil press.
Several generations of the Lao family have been running oil mills. Lao's father, Lao Guanghuai, was admitted to the Juren Examination only when he was 40 years old, and he was in the same class as the 20-year-old Mr. He.
Because Mr. He was also there at the time, he had a good chat with Lao Guanghuai. After a few glasses of wine, he arranged a marriage between Mr. He and Mr. Lao.
In the spring of the following year, Master He and Lao Guanghuai both passed the Jinshi examination, and Weng's son-in-law studied in the same department, which became a good story for a while.
After the palace examination, Mr. He married Mr. Lao.
Later, Mr. He was admitted to the Shujishi and entered the Hanlin Academy to observe politics, while Lao Guanghuai was sent to work as a county magistrate.
Mr. He sighed. His marriage to Lao Shi had been hasty from the beginning, too hasty.
And Yan's was equally careless.
Alas, it's all his fault that he was too young, not deeply involved in the matter, and met unkind people, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a difficult situation today.
Who would have thought that Lao Guanghuai, who did not even take the imperial examination and only embarked on his official career in his 40s, would come from behind by chance and become the prefect of Yangzhou in less than ten years.
As for him, there was a vacancy for a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, but the two ministers refused to give in and wanted to promote their own people. The minister was in a dilemma, so he promoted him without giving any face to either of them.
It's a pity that this "world-shaking wealth" came and went quickly. Before his buttocks could get hot, Mr. He died, and he could only return to Ding You.
Thinking of this, when Mr. He looked at Yan again, there was a hint of meaning in his eyes that was not there before.
Just today, he just heard the news that Lao Guanghuai's political performance was good. Now that his term is about to expire, as long as he doesn't want to beg for his body, he will most likely go to Beijing.
When Lao Guanghuai entered the capital, he would be at the same level at worst. If he was lucky, he could be a third-level official.
After all, Yangzhou Prefecture is the superior government, and they are both prefects. In the eyes of the people above, the prefect of Yangzhou Prefecture is different from the prefects in other places.
Alas, if Mrs. Wu'an Hou hadn't stabbed him in the face, even if Lao Guanghuai was still angry with him because of what happened back then, he would still be able to help him for the sake of his granddaughter's face.
Fortunately, the marriage in Wu'an Hou Mansion is not bad. The Lu family is the founder of the country and has a respected status. Both the emperor and the empress dowager want to win over them. Moreover, most noble families have many descendants, and so does the Lu family. In this way, there are many descendants and in-laws. Among the in-laws of the Lu family are not only military generals, but also civil servants, and even children of aristocratic families. Even Mr. He's former boss had a cousin who married into the Lu course, the royal family is also an in-law of the Lu family, and the Lu family has given birth to princesses. Now the second wife of the Lu family is the eldest princess, Taizong's sister, and the emperor's aunt.
Mr. He finally felt a little more balanced. He could only choose between Wu'anhou Mansion and Lao Guanghuai, so he would choose Wuanhou Mansion.
Even if the fake is worse, even if she dies again, the Lao family will not treat Shuyuan as their granddaughter, but the same cannot be said for the Marquis of Wu'an. With that fake as a foil, Shuyuan will be lovable again, and Wu An Mrs. Hou will definitely like her.
So Mrs. Wuanhou, come quickly. When she comes, the fake will die, and he will die because of Mrs. Wuanhou. Only in this way can Mrs. Wuanhou feel guilty towards the He family.
Therefore, Mr. He and Mr. Yan were worried about this matter. Even if they heard that Jinghong Tower was looking for their ancestors, they did not take it to heart.
I have been looking for Jinghong Tower for two days.
Yan'er's godmother's son is responsible for the kitchen's purchases and has to go out every day.
Yan'er embellished the news she heard from him, and He Shuyun asked: "It's so good, why did Jinghong Tower lose our ancestors?"
"When people get old, they become confused. I heard people say that some people don't recognize anyone when they get old, and some call their daughters mother." Yan'er is well-informed.
This was the first time He Shuyun had heard of it, but she knew the word "old fool".
She looked at He Ran: "Have you ever heard of this kind of thing when you were in the Caotai team?"
He Ran was wandering around in Taixu. When did Jinghong Tower gain an ancestor? Why didn't she know? Hearing He Shuyun ask her, He Ran nodded: "If you don't know your own daughter, don't we have one in our house?"
Thank God, Mr. He just didn't know her and didn't call her mother, otherwise she would have had a heart attack, really! He. Dao Ma Dan of the Caotai team. Master of cold scenes. Topic terminator. Ran. In a few words, he threw a hammer and ushered in silence. The world was finally quiet.
He Ran went out again, and she still went out openly. The reason this time——
"I want to kiss my mother. I want to go out and cry."
Menzi swore that he really stopped her, but for some unknown reason, the eldest lady still slipped away from him.
He Ran went to the street and asked random people, but it was amazing, Jinghong Tower really lost an ancestor! It is said that the great-grandmother has come to personally look for the ancestors.
"Great grandma? Whose great grandma is it?" If there is a great grandma, is there also the old demon from Montenegro?
"My great-grandmother is my great-grandmother. My third uncle's brother-in-law's neighbor's daughter-in-law's biological brother works as a waiter in Jinghong Tower. He said that everyone in Jinghong Tower would call me great-grandmother, but the lost one My ancestor is older than my grandma, he is over 100 years old, he is like an old god."
How confused! Another person: "What is over 100 years old? That ancestor is almost two hundred years old. He is rich in Jinghonglou and chews ginseng like radish. I guess this ancestor is not lost, but has become an immortal and ascended." .”
He Ran was even more confused!
