On the carriage, Ouyang Lan sat on the seat of the carriage and held Li Yu on her lap. Jian Xin and Li Zhentian sat on both sides. On the other side of the carriage, Princess Yunkai and Xiaolan sat. Everyone in the car was speechless. Only Zhao Shu, who was driving the car, shouted "drive" from time to time. Although Xiaolan was sitting next to Zhao Yunkai, there was an empty seat between Xiaolan and Zhao Yunkai. Xiaolan saw that this woman looked dignified and beautiful, and her clothes were noble and elegant, but she was dirty and sloppy. She was nervous, so she sat alone in a corner of the carriage, not daring to approach any of them, and remained silent.
At this time, Li Yu seemed to notice that everyone in the car had tense faces, so he jumped off Ouyang Lan and introduced one by one to Xiaolan: "This is my mother! This is my father! This is Jian Xin Auntie! This is my aunt, but others call her princess. It seems to mean the emperor's daughter."
Xiaolan was still listening to Li Yu introduce her parents. When she heard that Li Yu said that Zhao Yunkai was a princess, she was so frightened that she stood up in a hurry, knelt down to Yun Kai and said: "A common girl is paying homage to the princess, not you." It's the princess. I apologize for not saying hello to you. Thank you princess for the rescue this time."
Yun Kai said: "That's all. Get up. The people sitting here and I are all relatives and friends, and we don't usually have so many rules. I know everything about your family. If you want to thank me, just thank this Mrs. Ouyang, yes She spent a lot of money to redeem you."
Li Yu said: "Yes, yes! My mother spent eight thousand taels to buy it for you!"
Li Yu is still young and doesn't understand the concept of eight thousand taels. Although Xiaolan has never read any books, she has been traveling with her mother for the past few months. Of course she understands what a huge number eight thousand taels is. She said with some guilt: "Thank you madam for the rescue, but my life is cheap." , Madam, why would you pay so much for me?"
Ou Yanlan said: "You can't say that. No matter how valuable your life is, everyone is the same. And this kid has been begging to save you just now, and I, the mother-in-law, can't just sit idly by." Then she pinched Li. Li Yu's face was small, but he seemed to have a lot of strength, and he squeezed it so hard that Li Yu started to babble. Ouyang Lan added: "What's more, when I saw that woman named You, she looked so arrogant and arrogant, I got angry! If not...if not...Sister Yunkai was present. , I had to go up and give her two slaps."
Zhao Yunkai joked: "Oh? So you are trying to save face for me?"
Ouyang Lan said: "Of course, Sister Yunkai's face must be given to her. Originally, I thought of being more generous and giving her 10,000 taels. But Sister Yunkai gave us a discount, so I have to give it to Yunkai no matter what. Sister, you save face."
Zhao Yunkai said: "Okay. I think you are reluctant to part with your two thousand taels of silver!"
Ouyang Lan chuckled and said, "How could that happen? Hehe."
Xiaolan said: "No matter what, it was because of me that my wife spent so much money. How can I repay you?"
"Okay, it's money spent. I can't watch them push you... into a pit of fire. As for repayment, we'll talk about it later. Zhentian, why don't you say anything." Ouyang Lan rubbed her arm. Li Zhentian.
Li Zhentian said: "I'm still thinking about that monk."
Ouyang Lan was puzzled, "What happened to that monk?"
Li Zhentian said: "To be honest, in terms of internal strength, except for some unknown masters in the martial arts world, even Brother Liu may not be my opponent. But just now, even if I was performing the Dragon Sleep Awakening In this state, with the palm of my hand against that monk, he was evenly matched with me. Who is that monk? Judging from his body shape and condition, he cannot be more than thirty years old, and he is probably about the same as us."
Ouyang Lan said: "Zhentian, what do you mean?"
Li Zhentian murmured: "This person is not simple. Moreover, he uses Buddhist martial arts, and he also said that he is not from Songshan Temple. This makes it difficult for me to guess where he came from."
The carriage stopped. "Master, Madam, Princess, we have arrived at the Prince Consort's Mansion." Zhao Shu greeted outside the carriage.
Li Zhentian said: "Forget it. Let's think about it later. Let's get out of the car first."
Everyone got out of the car and walked into the gate. This time, Xiaolan was shocked again. Xiaolan was illiterate, so naturally she couldn't understand the three characters "Prince Consort's Mansion". However, just this gorgeous gate and this spacious courtyard really made Xiaolan afraid to stop and move forward.
Yun Kai seemed to see Xiaolan's thoughts and said, "Come in, little girl. Your mother and brother are in the backyard, and a doctor has already treated them."
Even though Yun Kai said this, Xiaolan still didn't dare to walk in, especially after what happened just now, she became cautious. Although she felt that these people might not be bad people, but they knew their faces but not their hearts. Who knew if they were in the same group as those just now and were deliberately acting for her to see, so Xiaolan stood at the door like this.
Yun Kai said to a servant: "Go to the backyard and call Mrs. Feng and tell her that her daughter has been found."
"Yes, princess." The servant told Feng to go.
Seeing everyone coming back, Han Ji and Hanfeng, who were sitting in the front hall, came over. The two men, each holding a bowl and chopsticks in their hands, looked very similar and looked at the people approaching. The bowl is filled with rice and rice, especially the flavor of sweet fish, which is very appetizing.
Han Ji said to Liu Zhan: "Isn't he coming back now? I just said it's okay."
As the saying goes: If you don’t see food, you don’t know you are hungry. On the way back to the Prince Consort's Mansion from Zuichun Tower, Ouyang Lan didn't feel hungry yet. Smelling the aroma of the food served by Han Ji and Hanfeng Duan, Ouyang Lan's stomach immediately growled with hunger, and she immediately went to grab Hanfeng's bowl, muttering: "Sister Hanfeng is still considerate and knows that she is hungry."
Hanfeng hid himself from Ouyang Lan and said, "Hey, hey, hey! Who is this crazy girl from?"
Ouyang Lan begged: "It's so good Hanfeng! I'm hungry, please let me have a few bites!" Then she continued to grab Hanfeng's bowl.
Hanfeng said helplessly: "There are others on the table! Serve them yourself!"
The look of these two women made everyone laugh. But speaking of it, everyone who came back was also hungry, so they all gathered at the table to eat something.
Liu Zhan and Yun Kai looked at each other and smiled. Liu Zhan said softly, "You must be tired. Let's eat something quickly."
Zhao Yunkai sat next to Liu Zhan, picked up Liu Zhan's bowl and said, "It's okay. How are you?"
"I'm very good."
"Well, that's good. I'll eat something and then tell you what happened."
"good."
Then Zhao Yunkai began to eat slowly.
Mrs. Feng gave her son medicine, put him to sleep, and just sat down. A servant came over and told Mrs. Feng the news of her daughter's return. After hearing this, Mrs. Feng hurriedly ran from the backyard to the front hall. When she saw Xiaolan standing at the door, she ran over crying: "Xiaolan! It's really you!"
Xiaolan saw her mother, and regardless of the higher threshold, she crossed over and ran towards her mother. The two mother and daughter hugged each other with tears streaming down their faces. After crying for a while, Feng wiped the tears on Xiaolan's face with her sleeves and said with choked sobs: "Mom, I thought I would never see you again. I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I'll never see you again." They will sell you. Let me see if anything is wrong with you. They didn’t do anything to you."
Xiaolan felt her mother's caring greetings, and all the gloom in her heart dissipated. She squeezed out a smile on her face that had just cried, and said: "Mom, I'm fine. It was only the kind-hearted young master and madam who allowed me to come out. "Xiaolan looked at Ouyang Lan and her son over there.
When Ouyang Lan saw this scene, she couldn't help but be moved. Although she spent a lot of money, she finally did a good deed. Li Yu was eating some delicious food at the dining table without being moved at all. Although there is still some pain in my chest, I have been starving myself in the past two days. I want to eat a good meal quickly to make up for myself. While eating, I muttered to Xiaolan: "Don't you still want to ask your mother something?" Well."
Feng said to Xiaolan: "What do you want to ask mother?"
Xiaolan shook her head and said, "It's nothing."
Feng said: "Are you hungry? There is some gruel in the back room. Come and eat some."
Xiaolan said "Okay" without hesitation. But when she thought that she was in someone else's house, she turned to look at the people on the dining table.
Zhao Yunkai said: "Today, you and your mother will stay here first. If you are hungry, go to this girl Hanfeng and ask her to prepare some food for you."
Feng looked at Zhao Yunkai gratefully and said, "Thank you." Then Xiaolan supported her mother, who was still a little bumpy, and walked to the backyard.
Everyone looked at the leaving mother and daughter Feng, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional in their hearts. Ouyang Lan looked at Li Yu who was focused on eating and slapped him on the head.
Li Yu was shocked by this sudden slap: "Ouch! Mother! What are you doing!"
"What are you doing? It's all you little brat! You've caused so much trouble! Let's see if you continue to run around blindly!" Then Ouyang Lan murmured distressedly: "Oh! Eight thousand taels are just gone. "
Li Yu lowered his head and did not dare to move or speak.
Li Zhentian hurriedly came to smooth things over and said, "Lan'er, you said that if it hadn't been for Yu'er, maybe the mother and son would have been destroyed and separated forever. In this way, Yu'er has done a good thing."
Jian Xin said: "Yes, Miss. Yu'er's chivalrous heart is just what you want."
Ouyang Lan said: "Okay, you don't have to say good things for him. Anyway, the hardship he endured this time is his own. Let's see if he has a long memory."
Han Ji asked curiously: "What eight thousand taels?"
Ouyang Lan told what happened in Zuichun Tower today, and Han Ji laughed loudly, "Sister Ouyang! You are so generous! Eight thousand taels!"
Ouyang Lan said helplessly: "What else can be done? In that situation, if they didn't take the money, they would really kill the girl. A life! It's a life no matter what! For such a young girl, how could it be possible? I can watch with helpless eyes, just let someone kill me with one palm!"
Li Zhentian hugged Ouyang Lan, gave a thumbs up and said, "My wife is kind. Don't worry, I will give you all the money I earn in the future."
Ouyang Lan said: "Tch! Originally, the money you earned was given to me. How can I let you keep it and continue to look for women?"
Li Zhentian was choked by Ouyang Lan and said quickly to Liu Zhan: "Brother Liu, evacuate all the people who swear Jiangmeng. Arrange someone to notify Wei Min and Long Zhan that Yu'er has been found, and let them also Let's go back."
Ouyang Lan said: "Just withdraw from the people who swear Jiangmeng. Let that woman look for her again. My son has suffered so much, how can I do it without torturing her!"
Han Ji said: "I agree with what Sister Ouyang said on this matter."
Liu Zhan said: "Yu'er has been found. I will arrange for someone to go to Jiangmeng to inform them soon. As for the second wife of the Li family, I have no control over this matter. Whoever wants to inform will be informed." Ouyang Lan is herself His adopted sister, as a brother, he must help his sister to vent her anger. Zhao Yunkai looked at them and shook his head helplessly.
Li Zhentian sighed and said, "Okay. Let them work in vain."
