General Long understood instantly. He glanced at Su Luolin and was secretly delighted, knowing that he had not guessed wrong!
My complexion improved significantly immediately, and I could clearly feel the relief in my breathing.
Afterwards, Old Master Long looked outside and pondered for a while, then said he wanted to go for a walk in Xihe Courtyard to see how it had been renovated.
His real idea was to see what needed to be added, write it down, and fix it later!
He couldn't rest easy if he didn't go and see for himself. His excuses about having difficulty walking were just that—excuses. He was determined to go and take a look!
Even his daughter didn't want to get up and go see him; she went straight to Xihe Courtyard.
Lady Hou was also astonished when she heard this. What was her father up to? He had always lived a secluded life, and it was extremely difficult to see him on ordinary days. Without special circumstances, there was no way to see him at all!
What wind has blown him out of the woods, blowing him straight to the Marquis's residence!
Judging from their demeanor, could it be that they know something?
It's really strange that she can't even remember her own daughter!
"You went back? You just took a stroll around Xihe Courtyard and left?"
Lady Hou was a little annoyed; she really hadn't thought of her daughter at all!
So, there's definitely something fishy going on at the Marquis's residence. Is he planning to visit his grandson and then go to Xihe Courtyard?
Nobody else is stupid, right?
well!
Forget it, what else is there to argue about!
The fact that Dad is willing to go out is already a huge deal; everything else is a minor matter for now!
Something big must have happened before, otherwise Dad usually wouldn't come over on his own initiative!
In the past, they would go over and bring whoever they missed, to let them see what was going on. This is the first time they've ever come here on their own initiative!
"Did the old general say anything?"
The more Lady Hou thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She wanted to know more clues so she could make some inferences and have a better understanding of the situation.
Unfortunately, the maid shook her head. "The old general didn't say anything. He just wandered around Xihe Courtyard, his eyes very focused. He looked here and there, very seriously!"
Lady Hou was even more puzzled. Her father hadn't said anything.
well!
Anyway, she can't figure it out, so be it!
Since Xixi disappeared, everyone has changed. They've all become cunning and calculating, and it's impossible to see into their hearts at a glance!
She was becoming increasingly adept at understanding these people's thoughts, and she couldn't figure them out at all. Many times, what actually happened was completely different from what she had guessed!
She's guessed too much, and now she's too lazy to guess anymore. Oh well, just do what you need to do!
Unless it's something bad, she doesn't want to bother thinking about it too much.
The manor is already chaotic enough, a little more won't make a difference!
When things get chaotic enough, we can reshuffle the deck!
Nowadays, no one listens to reason; everyone has their own ideas and does whatever comes to mind. She can't stop them no matter what. How many can she stop?
Let them do whatever they want. What kind of joke haven't people laughed at? Who knows what they'll say about the Marquis's mansion behind their backs? We're all numb to it!
The old lady turns a blind eye to everything, so what else can she do? Sigh, she's old. Those brats can do whatever they want, but fortunately, they're not very destructive.
But this is not good news for Su Mingyue and her daughter.
They didn't care whether the Marquis's mansion was in chaos or not; they only cared about whether they could live well. Most importantly, they wondered if Su Mingyue could rise above others and win a good marriage so that she could escape the fate of being born out of wedlock!
The mother and daughter never gave up on getting the Crown Princess back. Even after Geng Yuepeng disappeared, they never stopped trying to win him back. They used Geng Yuepeng's reputation to win people over and get them to help them achieve their goals. In return, they offered Geng Yuepeng to fulfill the promises they made.
Regardless of whether Geng Yuepeng is dead or not, as long as Wei Ming is still alive, he still has value!
The Misty Rain Pavilion has only suffered a blow, it hasn't really collapsed. Who dares to say that we won't need the Misty Rain Pavilion's help in the future?
How could the Misty Rain Pavilion collapse so easily? It's not that fragile.
Without receiving definite information, the other party dared not refuse outright, fearing that Yanyu Tower might take some action. How could someone who is associated with Yanyu Tower be clean?
Few dared to refuse Yanyu Tower, but Luo Xiaoniang did not have any substantial evidence to prove that she was the mistress of Yanyu Tower. She herself did not even dare to lift her veil, so her credibility was not very high. Many people did not refuse, but they did not agree directly either!
It's like hitting a cotton ball; you throw a punch to the left and a punch to the right, all soft and yielding, so as not to hurt the opponent, but the opponent shouldn't expect to gain much advantage either.
Some people agreed to help, but when it came time to actually help, various problems arose and they couldn't help anymore!
I'm too busy taking care of myself to have time to care about others. I'm sorry, but people always consider their own interests first. Only after they've ensured that their own interests haven't been harmed do they have the mind to consider other things.
Luo Xiaoniang and her daughter had searched for many people, and things were going quite smoothly. They were able to find several people, which was already quite good, but in the end, none of them could really help them!
They're so infuriating!
As the situation became increasingly unfavorable for them, they grew more and more anxious and worried, to the point that they developed blisters on their lips.
"Young lady, what's going on in the manor now? Didn't they say they didn't have enough money for the North Garden and wouldn't be moving for the time being? How come it seems like construction has started again now, and they're almost moving it to our area! Are they trying to force us to rebel? They won't even give us a place to live! This is simply too much!"
Su Mingyue was so angry that she jumped up and down. She felt that she could not bear it any longer. If she continued to endure it, she would become a ninja!
She didn't want to be a coward, so what was the point of enduring it? If people wanted to bully her, they would still bully her anyway!
It's only because her godfather isn't around that they've fallen to such a state!
She missed Geng Yuepeng more and more and hoped that he would come back soon, otherwise she wouldn't be able to hold on any longer!
Her mother always told her to be patient, that her godfather would be back soon, and that they were powerless now and shouldn't confront those people head-on, as they wouldn't gain anything and might even be caught in a compromising situation, which would inevitably lead to a lot of suffering!
But no matter how much they try to lower their profile, they haven't forgotten how arrogant they used to be. People still come looking for them without any politeness, and a few sarcastic remarks are the least of their worries; they might even get kicked a few times!
At this moment, Luo Xiaoniang also felt that she was useless. Without Geng Yuepeng, she seemed to have lost the capital to be arrogant and carefree!
"No way! The Marquis's mansion is currently in a mess, with no clear purpose, but they wouldn't refuse us accommodation! They're not stupid; they won't let outsiders laugh at them and tarnish their reputation! I feel your godfather will be back soon, and our hard times will be over. Just bear with it a little longer!"
Upon hearing this, Su Mingyue immediately perked up, "When is Godfather coming back? Is there any news about him?"
Luo Xiaoniang choked, there was no news from her!
Do you think of me that way?
