Chapter 117 Letters

When Yuan Xiao returned home, she heard Wang Yazhi talk about Qian Yingying coming to steal herbs.

She climbed over the wall and took a look. Some of the herbs on it were for insect repellent powder, some were for Uncle Gu to make ink tablets, and some were for Guose Tianxiang.

If these things were mixed together, who knows what they would become.

"It's okay if she wasn't caught this time. If she comes again next time, she will be sent to the police station."

Grandma shook her head, "Qian Yingying has been spoiled."

Yuan Xiao was comforting her grandmother when she heard someone come to the door: "Is Yuan Xiao here? There is a letter for you."

She stood up happily, thinking that it was a letter from Gu Lanting.

But the letter was not only from Gu Lanting, but also from the capital.

One letter was from Professor Wen, saying that he had a friend who was very interested in her silk and invited her to the capital to talk about it.

Yuan Xiao thought that it was probably because Cha Zi found Professor Wen in the capital that Professor Wen saw her silk.

The letter from Gu Lanting informed her that he was on a mission these days and asked her not to write to him anymore.

There was another letter, signed "Bai Hua", and the address was also from the capital.

Yuan Xiao hesitated for a moment. The letter was not for her. The recipient was Wang Yazhi's name.

"Mom, do you know someone named Bai Hua?"

Wang Yazhi wiped her hands, "No, what's the matter?"

Yuan Xiao raised the letter in his hand, "This letter is for you, sent from the capital. Mom, you have been able to read for a while, so it's a good time to test you."

"Test who?" Chu Jiangping walked out.

Yuan Xiao smiled slyly, "Uncle Chu, someone from the capital sent a letter to my mother, named Bai Hua, maybe it's a man."

Wang Yazhi blushed and pretended to hit her, but she couldn't bear to do it, so she just patted her lightly .

Turning back, she saw Chu Jiangping's face suddenly sank, "What's wrong?"

Chu Jiangping pointed to the envelope, "Bai Hua, it's Gu Lanting's mother."

Yuan Xiao's fingers were unstable for a moment, and the envelope fell lightly on the stone table.

"Gu Lanting's mother?"

Wang Yazhi had never even left Qushui County, let alone met Gu Lanting's mother.

If Gu Lanting had introduced himself to Bai Hua, then Bai Hua should not have sent the letter to Wang Yazhi, but to Yuan Xiao.

But now, she bypassed Yuan Xiao and talked directly to Wang Yazhi, the mother.

Needless to say, the meaning of this is clear.

Wang Yazhi picked up the envelope and opened it.

"Mom, how about I take a look?" Yuan Xiao spoke, only to find that his voice was a little dry.

Wang Yazhi dodged her hand and said, "Since it's for me, I should take a look."

"Hello, Ms. Wang Yazhi, my name is Bai Hua..."

Wang Yazhi already knew quite a few words, at least she could understand this letter.

The general meaning was that Wang Yazhi, as a mother, should understand the feelings of another mother.

Gu Lanting was the third generation of a military family, with a distinguished family background and a promising future.

She had already selected a girl from an aristocratic family as the future wife for Gu Lanting in the capital, and was just waiting for Gu Lanting to return to the capital to cultivate their relationship.

The meaning in the beginning was very clear, and the words were quite tactful.

But the tone of the conversation changed later, and when Yuan Xiao was mentioned, the words were a bit unpleasant.

"Lan Ting is a rare talent, not a match for an ordinary girl. Yuan Xiao is good, but not a good match. The women Lan Ting dated outside the capital will not be recognized by the Gu family. Although our Gu family is a noble family, we do not practice having three wives and four concubines. I hope you will respect yourself."

The word "concubine" was like a mountain, crushing Wang Yazhi's emotions.

Wang Yazhi's hands trembled slightly, and she could hardly hold even a thin piece of paper.

Yuan Xiao stepped forward and wanted to take the letter, "Mom, what did she say?"

Wang Yazhi crumpled the envelope into a ball, "Nothing, you don't need to read it."

"Give it to me."

Seeing that she looked stubborn, Wang Yazhi had to put the letter in her hand.

After reading it, Yuan Xiao sneered.

That's it?

She thought it would come with a few thousand yuan.

"She must have sent the letter without telling Gu Lanting. Don't take it out on him." Wang Yazhi advised.

Yuan Xiao looked indifferent, and suddenly blinked her sour eyes, "Mom, I'm sorry."

Wang Yazhi glared at her, tears rolled down her eyes, and she wiped them away quickly, "What are you talking about!"

Chu Jiangping was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to say.

He didn't need to read the letter, he basically knew what it was about.

Bai Hua thought he was noble, and paid special attention to matching.

"You and Lanting are living your life together, and it has nothing to do with others. Besides, you are so outstanding, but your uncle thinks that Gu Lanting is not worthy of you."

Yuan Xiao snorted coldly, "That's right."

She took out paper and pen from the room and put them on the stone table.

Seeing this, Wang Yazhi asked, "What are you going to do?"

Yuan Xiao propped up his chin, "She wrote to me, so of course I have to write back."

Reciprocity is the way of life.

Last time, I heard from Gu Lanting that Dr. Liu gave his mother some Ganoderma lucidum to replenish her body.

Thinking about it now, although Yuan Xiao did not regret it, she could not help but feel upset and felt that the Ganoderma lucidum was better fed to dogs.

"If your letter is destroyed, you two will become enemies." Chu Jiangping nodded.

Yuan Xiao sneered, "Even if she and I are not enemies, we may not have other identities."

She still had that idea, if we are together, we will break up .

It's not like they have been friends for many years, so why should she be with him?

She likes Gu Lanting, but if this kind of liking will hurt her relatives, she can give it up immediately without thinking.

Although this matter had nothing to do with Gu Lanting, it was difficult for her not to be angry.

Chu Jiangping chuckled and didn't stop her.

Instead, he wanted to know if Bai Hua would faint after seeing the letter.

Wang Yazhi felt a little uneasy, "Xiaoxiao, forget it, don't reply."

If Gu Lanting knew about this, it might affect the relationship between the two.

Yuan Xiao said in a muffled voice, "Mom, don't worry about it."

If Bai Hua sent a letter to Yuan Xiao today, she could still laugh it off.

But it's not okay to hurt Wang Yazhi directly, this is the bottom line.

"Otherwise, you can go to the city and talk to Xiao Gu?"

Yuan Xiao shook his head, "He's on a mission."

The letter was sent a few days ago, and he has left Langshi now.

Even if he didn't leave, she couldn't influence him at this juncture.

Wang Yazhi tried to persuade him several times but failed, and looked at Chu Jiangping with a look for help.

Chu Jiangping patted her hands, "If she's offended, she's offended. Didn't she offend us too? Although the Gu family is good, we don't need to compromise. Do you also think that Xiaoxiao is not worthy of Gu Lanting?"

"Of course not!" She quickly retorted.

Yuanxiao is the best in her heart, how could he not be worthy of her.

"That's it, we don't have to beg anyone anyway. Xiaoxiao is still young, and it's uncertain how far she can go with Lanting in the future. There are so many good men in the world, and we don't need an old one."

Yuanxiao folded the letter and laughed.

If Gu Lanting heard it, he would probably be mad to death.
