"This child is usually very steady and would never leave without permission. I'm afraid something must have happened!" Lian Jinrong's face turned bad.
When she said this, everyone became nervous, because no one could guarantee that nothing would happen!
Lou Wanyue was nervous when she heard this: "Qingran is in her own home, what could happen?"
Although she said this, she was still unsure.
She had just met Qingran and didn't know all of her habits very well. Lian Jinrong's face was extremely serious at the moment: "Qingran is not my child, but I know her very well. She is a very careful person. It's impossible for her to leave without telling anyone... What should I do?"
The old lady heard this and said, "What can I do? Go and look for her. Maybe she met one of her sisters and had such a good time chatting that she forgot to come back! Go out and look for her. It's like accompanying your sisters-in-law to take a walk around the mansion. I see that the peonies in the backyard are in full bloom, better than any I've ever seen. Take them to have a look too!"
Lian Jinrong apologized with a smile: "Mother is right, it's my daughter-in-law who is making a fuss. A few days ago, I saw that the peony was in full bloom, and I wanted to take everyone to see it, not to show off, but the flower actually bloomed black, which I find strange..."
"This is not surprising. Black peonies have been more noble since ancient times, but it's not that there aren't any..." Concubine Shu said, "You guys go and take a look. I won't go. There are a few in the palace. I saw them a few days ago!"
When everyone heard this, they became interested.
Lian Jinrong looked at the large group of women who came out with her, and was secretly happy in her heart. Fortunately, the old lady mentioned the matter of Peony, otherwise, it would seem too abrupt! An Qingran also drank the drugged tea, and the prince also received her note. Both of them went to the Wangfeng Tower. She couldn't wait any longer, otherwise they would leave after the good thing was done.
Lou Wanyue only thought about An Qingran, and had no mood to appreciate the flowers. She thought it was okay for her to disappear for a while, but her aunt took it so seriously, which was obviously different! She didn't know the situation in the mansion, but the scene played by An Yanran that day really made her feel confused.
Among these people were either royal relatives or high-ranking officials, and their daughters were all pampered. They were not following for the Black Peony, they just followed. Otherwise, they would have to sit in the house with the old lady. In comparison, it was obvious that the former was more popular!
Lian Jinrong led the way to Wangfeng Tower.
The scenery along the way was also very beautiful, but it was getting farther and farther away from the peonies.
Everyone didn't know and they were still talking and laughing along the way. Lian Jinrong spoke up in front, "Everyone knows that Yanran is my daughter, but they don't know that I feel closer to Qingran than my biological daughter. Qingran is also sensible and has the same temper as me, so I pay more attention to her. But Yanran sometimes gets angry with me because of this!"
After she said this, everyone smiled apologetically.
She continued, "This child has been with me half of the time since she was young. I spoiled her too much. But her health has not been good since she was young, so I am worried..."
"It's really rare..." Lou He said.
Lian Cheng also nodded, but there was disdain in her eyes, because she knew everything about the General's Mansion, some of which she saw herself, and some of which Mu Han told her when he went back. Of course, she knew that although this sister-in-law was born out of wedlock, she was not easy to mess with, and the other sister-in-law was a good person, but she was a little stubborn. Fortunately, she got along well with her, so, in her heart, she was also on Lian Jinyu's side, but she seldom went back to her parents' home, and did not visit relatives often. Fortunately, she had the children, so they had a good relationship.
After Mu Han returned, he always mentioned Qingran, saying that she was kind-hearted and very smart!
She just saw her. She has grown into a grown-up girl, which makes her very happy.
But she vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Why would Lian Jinrong care so much about a child who is not her biological child on a day like this?
What purpose does she have?
She waited and watched.
Lian Jinrong walked to the Wangfeng Tower in the blink of an eye, but to get to the Wangfeng Tower, she had to pass by the Wangyue Tower. She looked at the small building in front of her and smiled, "The general's mansion is bustling with people everywhere. If anything happens to her, people will know about it. It's just that these two places are remote. I usually have people seal off this courtyard. Although there are many people in the mansion now, there is still no need for this place... I'm just afraid that she will hide here and no one will know if something happens to her."
She said as she walked forward.
Suddenly, my steps paused because a shout came from the house!
The people who came here understood the voice. But the rich ladies didn't understand at all. Someone even asked, "What happened? Is someone injured?"
As he said this, he walked forward.
Lou stopped Lou Wanyue and didn't let her come closer. At this moment, the sound in the room became louder again. It was a sound with a changed tone, and it was unclear whether it was painful or pleasant!
All the ladies were embarrassed now and immediately turned around and asked their daughters to leave.
Lou Wanyue seemed to understand something. Her face turned red and she walked out.
But these young ladies did not go too far after leaving Wangyue Tower. They just stood at the door. Everyone wanted to know what had happened.
Because it was so sudden, many people pushed their daughter away and then touched their hearts and asked, "What happened?"
Lian Jinrong showed a trace of panic on her face: "It's nothing... Let's go out first!"
She knew that An Qingran was in there. If she didn't show some respect, people would think that she, as a concubine, was leading people to catch an adulterer. That would be a disaster. Even if Lian Jinyu let her go, An Zhongtao would still hate her.
Lou He often heard Lou Wanyue mention An Qingran to her and thought that this child was good. Therefore, she didn't want people to misunderstand or think that the person inside was her, so she said, "Look at these servants in the general's mansion. They are too bold. They know to avoid in broad daylight..."
Lian Jinrong nodded and smiled: "Yes, these girls really need to be taught a lesson, they don't even know the time...
"How could they have expected that the Second Madam would bring people here?" Lian Cheng said, "If they knew, they would definitely not dare to do so. Let's go..."
"Yes, let's go. But we don't know where Qingran has gone. It's really worrying!" Lian Jinrong sighed.
She didn't walk fast as she was thinking about how to make things clear.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind the crowd: "Auntie, are you looking for me?"

I wish everyone a happy Lantern Festival and a happy Valentine's Day.
