On the other hand, Lian Jinrong's sable hair was fine and even, making her face look as beautiful as a peach blossom. However, An Zhongtao actually glanced at her and said indifferently, "What's the matter?"
When Shen Biyun saw that it was her who was waiting here, she smiled and said to An Zhongtao: “Cousin, you have something to do, I’m going back, we’ll talk about that matter later.”
Said turning around.
An Zhongtao stopped her and said, "Wait a minute."
Then he looked at Lian Jinrong with impatience in his eyes.
It was obvious that her presence put him in a bad mood.
Lian Jinrong understood it in her heart, and felt that this woman should not be taken lightly. She didn't know what Lian Jinyu was thinking. The wolf had already entered the house, but there was no reaction at all?
Yes, she did react, but she didn't expect that they would be in danger because of this mother and son. She didn't believe it. How could Shen Biyun turn the tables?
Thinking of this, she looked at An Zhongtao and smiled: "General, I have just made you a pair of pajamas. This is the finest palace brocade, the silk is soft and wrinkle-free..."
As she spoke, she handed over the pure white clothes in her hand. She seemed to fall down accidentally, and the pearl necklace on her wrist fell off.
An Zhongtao stared at the chain for a moment, as if recalling something. He frowned and asked, "Why is it on my hand?"
"I wore it on my hand all the time when I was under house arrest. I'm used to it." Lian Jinrong said quietly.
This necklace was the first gift An Zhongtao gave her. At that time, An Yanran had just been born, so his mind was on her. When he thought of this, his heart softened. He took the thing and looked at her: "Do you have anything else to say?"
"I have stewed some boiling pheasant soup in the room. I would like to invite the general to have a drink to get rid of the cold." Lian Jinrong saw that An Zhongtao was interested at the moment and spoke quickly.
An Zhongtao thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I have something else to do now. You can cook it for me later when I want to eat it."
If Lian Jinrong still couldn't tell the difference between her eyebrows and eyes at this moment, then she would be dead.
So, she left obediently.
After all, this is the first step to melting the ice, and she can wait.
However, she left very reluctantly, because she knew that after she left, Shen Biyun would definitely go into the study with the general. From the look of her face, she seemed to have ulterior motives, so wouldn't she take the opportunity to attack after she went in?
Why did the general look so indifferent? Was he really not alert to her intentions?
Shen Biyun looked at her back and smiled at An Zhongtao: "My cousin is really a blessed man. My cousin's wife is generous and virtuous, and Mrs. Ru is also gentle and considerate. It seems that my elbow guard is a bit redundant..."
She said that An Zhongtao practiced horse riding and archery all day long, so she made him an elbow guard. After she took it out of her arms, An Zhongtao looked at the shiny leather and the new look, and his eyes lit up: "My cousin is really thoughtful..."
The two of them walked into the house while talking. An Zhongtao sat behind the long table. In fact, Shen Biyun didn't want to be so far away from him, but she now felt that being able to come in was a good thing, so she sat on the chair with a smile on her face: "Cousin, it's almost the New Year. I remember that in the past, we used to make a lot of sticky things and freeze them at the end of the year. I wonder if there is still such a custom in the General's Mansion?"
When this was mentioned, emotion appeared in An Zhongtao's eyes. Shen Biyun knew that she was right. She found that when her cousin talked about the past, he was most emotional and also the softest.
As expected, An Zhongtao sighed: "The customs in Beijing are naturally different from those in the countryside, so there really aren't any of those."
"Then I will make some sticky cakes tomorrow. There will be sweet-scented osmanthus, lotus leaf, and red bean paste cakes. Which one do you like, cousin?"
"Well... it's not good for you to be tired. It's just some food. It's not up to you whether to eat it or not." An Zhongtao said politely.
"That's not a matter of one mouthful, cousin. That's a memory. The customs of that year are all a kind of memory, a kind of remembrance of the family being together. Maybe if you eat a mouthful, you will think of your childhood. Besides, I order servants around all day long. I have nothing to do anyway. I feel happy if I can do something."
An Zhongtao nodded slightly when he heard this, which was considered as his agreement.
Therefore, after Lian Jinrong heard about this matter in Lan Xiao Pavilion, she gritted her teeth. This woman was really scheming. She was making trouble based on the memories between her and the general. However, she was also smart. She actually knew how to grasp the general's psychology, which made her admire her.
Lian Jinrong also knew how to grasp An Zhongtao's psychology. He hadn't been to the concubines' rooms for a month. His body must be very thirsty, and the person in this yard who could best quench his thirst was herself.
Now that she has been released from the ban, it will be fine as long as she doesn't do anything excessive. It is definitely not excessive for a woman to serve her man.
Lian Jinrong knew that An Zhongtao was nostalgic, so she dressed like when they first met. She looked a few years younger, but a little out of place. All her actions reached An Qingran's ears, and An Qingran smiled: "Very good, Rendong, how are you doing with the other thing I asked you to do?"
"Miss, it's done. Just wait and see what's to come."
Honeysuckle admired her young lady very much, and her admiration grew stronger and stronger.
When An Qingran heard Rendong's answer, she was really relieved. Shen Biyun had reminded her herself, but she pretended to be confused. Recently, she heard that she took the initiative to find her father and gave him a lot of things. She had to give up her idea before her grandmother made up her mind.
In fact, sometimes An Qingran felt that she might be worrying too much. This was originally her parents' business. If her father was interested and her mother had no objection, then as their daughter, she should not interfere in these matters.
But the shadow of her previous life was too great, she couldn't risk losing her mother. These women were like tigers and wolves, why didn't she take action against the four concubines?
Because she didn't have any evidence of their restlessness, and because they were unable to harm her mother, of course she treated these two different women differently.
An Qingran sighed. She had to tell herself the reason once a day so that she could have the strength to persevere.
She is tired too.
I feel tired.
Fortunately, her resistance and planning were effective, and her mother and brother are now safe and sound. This is what makes her most proud.
Shen Biyun returned to her room with brisk steps and hummed a little tune. She felt that she had done a very smart thing today. Lian Jinrong was completely defeated by her, and her cousin didn't even give her a chance to come in.
You have to think of more ideas yourself.
