Chapter 261 Domineering Kiss
As soon as she
got out of the house, Lian Jinrong must have recovered her sanity, and began to
scold again. The scolding was very unpleasant. An Qingran calmly said to the Mamas
outside: "It seems that Lian yiniang is not willing to go. You
guys should send her away...."
Mamas went
in and the cold shouts came, the shouting and cursing got quieter and quieter
at last ......
An Qingran
looked indifferently at the courtyard’s flowers and willows, but the expression
on her face did not change.
The mama shouted
that Yiniang had passed away. The people waiting outside immediately decorated
this courtyard with door plaques and lights. Someone immediately sent letters
to all the houses that a concubine(qieshi) in the General's Mansion had
succumbed to a sudden illness and died ......
The funeral
service lasted for seven days. After seven days Lian Jinrong entered her
ancestral grave and everything was impressive.
Regarding Lian
Jinrong's death, An Yanran almost hated to eat An Qinran's flesh. And vaguely
the old lady got the news, she guessed something and also developed a bone-deep
fear towards An Qinran.
As
for the others, An Qingran didn't care what they thought in their hearts.
Now that this
greatest enemy is gone, she is still uneasy, knowing that there is a long road
ahead and wondering how she can safely go on.
For seven
days, people came and went at the General's residence and it was a bustling
event.
Even people
from the imperial palace came over. Shu Guifei did not come in person,
but sort of sent someone. The people from the Ministry of Rites also sent a
hundred taels of silver. The ministers who were still in the court also came
over.
In any case,
everything was decent.
Of course,
before this happened, the news of An Qingran's disfigurement spread and the
news also reached the imperial palace. There were even rumours among the people
that they feared she had also been struck by the plague, but it was good that
the Imperial Doctor went back and told the truth.
Of course,
this news was spread deliberately by people, including that entombed Lian
Jinrong, who also exerted a lot of effort to do it. But the cause she planted,
the fruit has not yet been harvested and the person is no more.
Lou Wanyue
came, and she saw An Qingran's face, and tears flowed down: "Well, why did
you get such a disease..."
Everyone just
thought it was some kind of fever she had.
An Qingran
smiled, "I have such a disease, and you still came to see me. Obviously, I
didn't make friends with you for nothing."
"That's
true, when you and Mingchen went to the sanatorium, if my father hadn't sealed
the door of our Mansion and prevented me from going out, I would have come to
see you. I've been worried every day at home. Fortunately Heaven helps the
worthy (idiom), And this now face injury will surely heal ......"
"Well,
I'm not good, you'll be crying into something instead." An Qingran smiled
and in her heart, this part of her affection was considered to be noted.
When the two
people were talking, Dongfang Ruoxue also came. She brought the finest pearl
powder. She was taken aback when she saw Lou Wanyue, and An Qingran smiled,
"Didn't you two make an appointment?"
"Qingran,
your heart is big enough, and you are still joking like this now. If it were
me, I don't know what to do." Dongfang Ruoxue sighed, stepped forward to
check carefully, and frowned. "Those imperial doctors don’t have a
solution, can't you do it yourself?"
An Qingran
shook her head: "I think I did something wrong. This is retribution."
"Shut up,
you are the most kind one, what could you have done wrong, and if you had done
something wrong, you would have been forgiven that day, for the cause must not
have been you."
"Well, I
know you guys love me enough to say that, and I'll tell you what, I'm so happy
that you're here and I'm mostly better. ......"
"If we
had received the news early, we would have come early." Dongfang Ruoxue
sighed.
While they
were talking, suddenly Rendong came in and said that young master Lian was here
to see her.
This made the
other two girls in the room a bit flustered, An Qingran looked at them both,
"Don't worry, I won't let him come in and don't surprise you ......"
No one else spoke up, but Dongfang Ruoxue did say: "Lian Gongzi,
we've been acquainted before, and he's your cousin, so don't wait your guests
just because we're here ......"
"You
mean, I should let him in? But this is an inner boudoir after all ......"
" Why
would I ask for it like this..." Dongfang Ruoxue's face turned red all of
a sudden, "What I want to say is that we are leaving..."
Saying that,
she stood up.
But An Qingran
pulled her up: " I want to meet with my cousin whenever I want to see. I
won't comply if you don't finish your meal before you leave. Unless you think
my looks are too much for you to eat. And, I promise, I'll wear a veil at
dinner, and one person at a table, okay?
Two people
were held back by her.
Lian
Muhan only stood outside the window for a while talking to An Qinran, which was
nothing more than a concern for her face. He also brought greetings from her
uncle (jiujiu) and aunt(jiumu), and also sent many gifts, and he
finally left.
Only then did
the other two girls in the room dare to speak out.
An Qingran
looked at Dongfang Ruoxue.Thought in her heart, if she became her cousin
sister-in-law(biao sao), she would welcome it.
"Actually,
my brother is here too, he is waiting outside." Dongfang Ruoxue suddenly
said.
"Dongfang
Shizi?" An Qing Ran smiled at her words as she stood up, "Waiting
outside, but how nice, quickly invite!"
An Qingran was
very pleasant.
She felt very
good about Dongfang Run, a modest gentleman and a rare talent, and the brother
of Dongfang Ruoxue.
An Qingran
went out to welcome him. Dongfang Run was dressed in white, which gave him the
coolness of autumn in this summer. He was holding a box in his hand and handed
it over: "Miss An, are you feeling better?"
Two people
just stood in the courtyard and talked with each other.
An Qingran has
an atmospheric style on her face all the time, while Dongfang Run was just
faintly. But the words of concern between the words still made An Qingran warm.
She was willing to make him a friend.
When Dongfang
Run looked at An Qinran, who was wearing a green veil and still smiling , he
couldn't help but admire her even more. Which young girl could be as calm as
her?
Regarding
Dongfang Run's visit, the General did not say anything after hearing about it.
Lian Jin
Yu at first felt that something was wrong, but it was good that there were
other people present when her daughter met with Dongfang Shizi. It was
not likely that any gossip would be spread.
However,
the gossip really spread.
It was night,
the window rattled softly, An Qingran opened, and saw the Crown Prince's face,
she sighed: "Why are you here again..."
Dongfang Jin
pouted and leapt in, "It's not like I can come in broad daylight and strut
like others, if not at night, when can I see you ......"
An Qingran
heard the flavor of jealousy in his mouth and couldn't help but smile as she
turned around and entered the house: "I just agreed to get along with you
to see, and now I am not the Crown Princess either ......"
"No
......" Dongfang Jin hugged her body and kissed her without any warning
through the veil, his kiss was very domineering.
