Chapter 844 She Almost Believed It...
"Your mother's dowry before was naturally yours and Hao'er's. As for the gift given by your second uncle, it was also his wish. Just accept it. I have been close to your father since I was a child, and we are closer than ordinary brothers." , I just didn’t expect that my eldest brother would... let alone let you wander outside for so many years. If I had known about you earlier, I would have sent someone to pick you up early!"
Shao Jing sighed, the guilt on his face getting darker.
"Second uncle, this... no one wants to do this!" Shao Wanru said softly, biting his lip, as if he didn't want to talk anymore. The past was too painful to look back on, and thinking about it any more would only add to the sadness.
"This is where I feel sorry for you and brother. I should have made up for it. Originally, I entrusted the affairs of the inner court to the Jiang family. I thought that the Jiang family would always handle it well. This matter is just in the end... It seems that my second uncle can't help you!" Shao Jing's voice became more and more sad.
Is this saying that what Jiang did before has nothing to do with him? Shao Wanru's heart skipped a beat, and then he suppressed the coldness in his heart.
He raised his head and shook his head sincerely: "Second Uncle, these things have nothing to do with Second Uncle!"
"That's the best thing you can think of. Although your child was raised outside, his nature is the same as that of his elder brother. He is actually an outstanding person. Unlike Ru'er, Ru'er's current situation is also a result of his own fault!" Shao Jing The words attracted Shao Yanru.
Even his own daughter gave such a pertinent evaluation, which shows that it is extremely fair.
If Shao Wanru hadn't been reborn, and hadn't been secretly pushed by Duke Xingguo in his previous life, and ended up with such a miserable end, she would have almost believed it, and felt that her good second uncle was really a good person and character. people.
What was wrong was that Jiang and Shao Yanru had nothing to do with him. His starting point was good, but who knew that his wife and daughter would end up like this, which is really something no one would have imagined.
A real man will inevitably have an unvirtuous wife and an unfilial son. This kind of thing cannot be blamed on him, but will make people feel sympathy.
But in the last life, did my shrewd second uncle really not know? Everyone Jiang and Shao Yanru knew it, but he, the head of the family, didn't know it. Wouldn't it seem too hypocritical?
Shao Wanru deduced that this second uncle not only knew about it, but also had been pushing the development of the matter. Now that there is no one else around, this good second uncle had to step forward.
When the truth comes out, the stone actually has to come out!
"Eldest sister is now in the deep palace, and I don't know what's going on!" Shao Wanru asked softly, pretending not to understand the meaning of Shao Jing's words.
"Your eldest sister... ah..." Shao Jing sighed softly again, very unspeakably. After a while, he said again, "Wanyu, second uncle doesn't ask you for anything, I just ask you to stay in the palace in the future." When you meet Ru'er, you can be kinder to her with your words, so as not to be misunderstood by the people in the palace and step on her!"
What he said was very submissive. He did not ask that Shao Wanru would take care of Shao Yanru in the future, but that Shao Wanru would be a little better when he met Shao Yanru in the palace in the future. The main reason was to prevent people in the palace from looking down on Shao Yanru.
This request is not excessive. Even if Shao Yanru feels sorry for Shao Wanru, she will end up in this situation now. Besides, for Shao Jing's sake, Shao Wanru should not speak harshly to Shao Yanru when he sees her in the palace.
But when you think about it carefully, these words are said in vain and have no meaning at all.
If Shao Wanru meets Shao Yanru in the palace in the future, he will naturally not be able to speak harshly to her, otherwise Shao Wanru will also be reprimanded. This palace is not like other places, and there are many nobles. Let’s not talk about it from afar, just talk about the Queen. He couldn't help but be willing to take advantage of Shao Wanru.
If Shao Wanru really did this to his sisters, the Queen would definitely punish her.
Even if it was for herself, Shao Wanru would not be able to speak harshly to Shao Yanru in front of everyone.
A trace of darkness flashed in the water eyes. She didn't understand what Shao Jing meant. He said something here and there, trying to keep a low profile, but still didn't say anything.
"Second uncle, don't worry, I will do it!" Shao Wanru became softer and softer. She looked delicate and small. She was sitting there with red eyes. She must have been touched.
"Okay, let's not talk about these sad things. I can't help them now. They are always asking for it. It would be best if they can get better. If they can't get better, this is the only way!" Shao As soon as Jing stopped speaking, his expression showed a hint of sadness, but also a bit open-minded.
"Yes!" Shao Wanru nodded and only answered one word.
"Your father took some things from the house with him when he left. I didn't care about it at first, but in the past few days, I found that a private seal from the house was missing. It belonged to your grandfather, and there were a few things written by your grandfather. I wonder if Wan Ru can see it in your father’s relics?”
Shao Wanru looked at Shao Jing blankly, as if she didn't understand what he meant. She frowned slightly and thought for a while before saying, "Second uncle, I didn't see this in my father's things."
"Didn't you see it? But I asked the servants at the time before, and they all said that your father took it away. It was just the calligraphy and painting left by your grandfather, and a burned private seal. If it is in Wanru's hand, give it to Second uncle, look at it, he won’t take it away, he will just engrave another seal.”
Shao Jing spoke more and more tactfully, with a smile on his face, which looked kind and gentle, not cunning.
But the meaning behind these words is very cunning.
"Second uncle, there really isn't." Shao Wanru thought for a little longer this time, and Shao Jing didn't rush her. After thinking for a long time, she shook her head affirmatively again.
"It should be in the hands of the eldest brother! Wan Ru, show your father's relics to your second uncle. Maybe you don't know. Don't worry, your second uncle won't really take the seal away!" Shao Jing said again once asked.
This time, his expression was a little anxious. If Shao Wanru hadn't been observing him secretly, he really wouldn't have noticed this small change.
It seems that this should be the true purpose of this generous and kind-hearted second uncle.
She felt relieved. What she feared most was not other people's plans, but when other people's plans were not put on the table! What happened at that time, even if she was reborn and thought of many things, she might not be able to take advantage of them. Being able to guess some things was already very powerful.
"Are your father's belongings still there?" Shao Jing asked.
"Father doesn't have any relics, only the seal of recognition, and mother's glass cup. I haven't seen the others!" Shao Wanru shook his head.
This is true. These were the two things Shao Wanru saw at first, and they were also the key to her identification. But in fact, Mrs. Qin later had someone send a package, and some of the things in it are now with Shao Wanru, but She wouldn't let Shao Jing see it, so she excused herself.
Even if Shao Jing went to investigate, he could not find out such a thing. His grandmother, Mrs. Qin, said that few people knew about it, and even the Di family didn't know much about it.
Except for a few conspicuous items that attracted Di's attention at the beginning, the others were not very eye-catching, thus avoiding Di's prying eyes.
"If it's not there, forget it. I'll look for it again. It might be somewhere else in the house!" Shao Jing's eyes fell on Shao Wanru's face, and he looked at her carefully, as if he wanted to see if she had said it. Lie, and then said slowly.
"Then second uncle, let's look for it again!" Shao Wanru nodded.
"If you need anything else, just tell your second uncle. Although your second uncle has no ability, he will definitely help you if he can. We are a family to begin with, and we can't do it because of others!" Shao Jing warned, from now on From the outside, he really looks like an old father, who is very affectionate.
"Thank you, uncle, I know!" Shao Wanru also became more and more gentle.
"Then you go back first!" Shao Jing smiled.
Shao Wanru stood up and bowed deeply to Shao Jing, then turned and left. Looking at Shao Wanru's leaving back, the smile on Shao Jing's face slowly faded, and finally became gloomy. Could it be that he had thought wrong? Isn't there?
But if it's not there, where did the previous one come from?
He stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow. Of course, the more words he had on the picture, the better. Only in this way could he increase the bargaining chip at hand. Before, he had not thought of it, but now that he had thought of it, he must explore it carefully and never give up halfway. He won't give up until he sees his elder brother's relics.
Or maybe it's in General Ningyuan's Mansion? After all, he was still a child who didn't understand anything at the time, and couldn't even remember his own life experience!
"Come here, invite General Ning Yuan to come over for a party!" I was thinking so in my heart, I had already made up my mind, and said in a cold voice. After the smile on my face straightened, it made me feel inexplicably cold. meaning.
Shao Wanru didn't see Shao Jing's change of expression, and she didn't know that Qin Huaiyong was about to accept Shao Jing's appointment. Her eyes were now looking at the young man in front of her in astonishment.
He was so surprised that he could hardly speak. It was actually Yan Xi.
When he was reborn, Shao Wan seemed to hate Yan Xi, but after a period of time after rebirth, he discovered that there were constant strange things, and Mr. Yan was also missing in the end.
He is different from Wang Shengxue. I have heard that Wang Shengxue's life was very good.
It was also dealing with himself. Why were the fates of the two people so different? Before seeing Yan Xi, Shao Wanru didn't want to think too much about other people's affairs. But that day when he suddenly saw Yan Xi, he thought about something. It was even more surprising to find out later that he was actually Shao Jing's old son.
But now that this unexpected thing has happened to him, it is an unexpected surprise.
The watery eyes turned from surprise to coldness, and then became distant and indifferent. He turned his body to the side, avoiding Yan Xi's salute, and saluted sideways: "Young Master, you are so polite!"
The two men almost bumped into each other at the intersection.
Originally, this intersection was not big, and it was at the corner of a rockery, blocking people's sight. Yan Xi had something on his mind, so he walked quickly. He was going to see Duke Xingguo. This was the outer courtyard, and he was not afraid of bumping into the inner family members. Thinking about almost bumping into someone, and a young lady at that.
If Yan Xi hadn't reacted quickly, he and Shao Wanru would have bumped into each other...
