Chapter 721 Chapter 721
Jin Meng was not living in the general's mansion, but in a house on the outskirts of Liyang. From the inside out, it looked like an ordinary farmhouse.
The walls are red and the tiles are green, and the roof of the courtyard gate is still covered with sparse thatch. It is cloudy and rainy now, and raindrops fall from time to time.
It took about an hour to walk along the way.
Aunt Qing San did not lift the curtain to enter the carriage and sit with Jin Fuyun. Instead, she sat sideways on the shaft, with the coachman on either side. The rain was not heavy, but when the carriage stopped, her hair was wet.
He jumped down first, then looked back into the carriage.
"Miss, we're here. Please move and get off the car."
Jin Fuyun was silent in the car all the way. The three maids were even more worried about their lives and were trembling with fear all the way. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, the three of them would have cried.
Especially Panxi.
Unlike the two painters, Shishu and Shishu, she had never learned any martial arts or fought against others. She was a family-born child and grew up in a mansion. Although she was not rich and powerful in the first ten years of her life, she lived a peaceful life.
In just this one year, she experienced all the ups and downs of life.
General, just hearing the title, Pan Xi's calves began to tremble. The Duke of Zhenguo, his former employer, were no match to him.
I am a small, weak woman, like an ant, and my life and death are unpredictable.
Jin Fuyun, on the other hand, was very calm at this moment. She lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the small courtyard in front of her, and sneered, "It's really surprising that my father would choose such a secluded place."
Although it is in the village, the few houses in the village are all half a mile ahead.
It was rainy and foggy and I couldn't see clearly.
When Jin Fuyun saw this independent house in front of her, she felt a fear that she had not felt for a long time.
Because this place is perfect for murder and corpse disposal.
But the next moment, she rejected this extreme idea. Her father still relied on her to marry into the Yongjun Prince's Mansion and would not take her life.
What’s more, even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs.
She secretly comforted herself in her heart, but when she got out of the car, her hands holding the door began to tremble involuntarily.
Father, is angry.
Jin Fuyun tried hard to suppress her inner fear and pretended to be unconcerned. After getting off the carriage with difficulty, she asked three maids to tidy up her appearance before she pursed her lips and said, "Let's go."
Aunt Qing smiled faintly, "Young lady, you are so courageous!"
Jin Fuyun glanced at her lightly, "Third aunt, don't gloat over my misfortune. Father, you are reluctant to punish me."
Aunt Qing lowered her head and smiled, "Of course, although the eldest lady has not married yet, she will definitely be given the title of Princess of Yong County."
Jin Fuyun did not feel relieved after hearing this.
She looked at Qing Sangu's face which remained the same as always, and felt annoyed for the first time. This old woman knew too much and she should not have been kept long ago.
I was soft-hearted for once.
Thinking that she was an old servant whom my mother had employed for many years, if she was really killed, it would hurt my mother's kind heart and affect her health, which would not be good.
As a result, she was released and returned to Liyang.
Now looking at this quiet courtyard, I realized that this old woman must have told my father a lot of bad things.
Great!
Jin Fuyun's eyes were filled with hostility as he stared straight at Qing Sangu. As soon as he arrived in Liyang, this old hag gave him a warning.
It can only be the confidence given by my father.
So arrogant!
Thinking of this, Jin Fuyun's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of irony. Well, I will definitely suffer some hardship today. No problem, as long as I can get through it, I will definitely deal with this old servant with three big mouths!
Aunt Qing Sangu knew very well the sarcasm on Jin Fuyun's face, but she didn't take it seriously at all. She turned around and knocked on the gate. Two guards in short tights opened the gate.
"Third aunt, here she comes."
Aunt Qing nodded slightly and gestured towards the house, "Is the master up?"
The guard nodded, "We have been waiting for Third Aunt for a long time."
"Come in now."
Qing Sangu was walking in front, and the two guards only bowed to Jin Fuyun but did not greet him. It was very weird.
Jin Fuyun limped and took two steps with difficulty, supported by a maid.
Something is wrong!
Not even inviting An?
They were not the guards that my father usually used to serve him, they were all strangers.
Strange.
The courtyard was not big, and it took only a few steps to reach the three houses. Aunt Qing San stood by the door and said loudly, "Master, I am bringing the young lady home."
Miss?
Jin Fuyun glanced sideways at Qing Sangu again, but Qing Sangu knew that the eldest girl was looking at her with murderous eyes, but she remained unmoved.
Standing in front of me, it looks like a skinny pole.
Quite an indomitable attitude.
Ah!
Just let you live a few more days!
Qing Sangu had seen too many women's eyes in the backyard. Most of them were docile and cowardly, some were unwilling and gloomy, but few were like the eldest girl's.
Looks gentle, but actually harbors murderous intent.
Just as the two of them were exchanging glances, the door creaked and opened from the inside, and Zhang Dun's weathered face, who was in his fifties, appeared in front of Jin Fuyun.
She was slightly stunned, "Uncle Shield?"
Zhang Dun sighed, "Big girl, you're finally back."
After saying this, he made way for her and said, "Come in, the master has been waiting for you in the inner room for a long time." At this point, Jin Fuyun could only straighten her chest, maintain a dignified demeanor, and limped into the room, supporting herself with the help of her painter and her writing brush.
"Manager Zhang, I'll be waiting outside the door."
Zhang Dun raised his hand and waved, "Go to the kitchen and make something for the master."
"Yes."
Aunt Qing San took a step back before turning around and leaving.
Zhang Dun closed the door again and walked slowly to the inner room. On the kang bed, Jin Meng, who was nearly sixty years old, was reading a book in a khaki brocade robe.
Jin Fuyun mustered up her courage, walked up to him, and bent one knee with difficulty, "I pay my respects to you, father. I have been in the capital for a long time this time, and I have not been able to show my filial piety to you. This is really an unfilial act of yours."
"Your legs are not in good condition, sit down and talk."
Jin Meng's voice was as honest and deep as usual.
"Thank you, father. I messed up some things during my visit to Beijing. Please forgive me."
"Ok?"
Seeing that Jin Fuyun was not in a hurry to sit down but apologized instead, Jin Meng put down the book and looked up at his eldest daughter.
"In that case, why don't you tell me what you did wrong?"
Hearing her father's question, Jin Fuyun's mind raced. After a while, she lowered her head, her face full of apology and grievance, and acted like a little girl, saying softly, "Father, my daughter... somehow, I got into a rift with the fourth son of the Pei family and the second son of the Qin family, and now I don't associate with them. And -"
As for reputation, she couldn't say.
After hesitating for a while, he continued, "I made a mistake in controlling you, causing Zhu San to make a big mess, and harming my maid Suohong..."
Jin Meng nodded slightly, then slowly asked, "Are there only these two?"
