Chapter 277
At the third hour of the second day, Lin Wan took Lin Yuan to Ci'anyuan to pay tribute as usual.
After having breakfast with Cai and Lin Yuan, Lin Wan quietly left Ci'an Garden while Lin Yuan was not paying attention.
Today she was going out to make friends, but it was really inconvenient to bring Lin Yuan with her, so she left Lin Yuan in Ci'an Garden.
Lin Wan hurriedly returned to Qingyunju with Dongxue, almost the end of the month, and the meeting time she agreed with Qian Feifei was at 5 o'clock in Si. It took half an hour to go from Zhennan Hou Mansion to Taiping Street, and the time was a little tight.
Fortunately, the second wife had already arranged the housekeeping business yesterday. When Lin Wan took Lin Yuan to Ci'anyuan, she would have to explain to Madam Bai in advance to make arrangements.
Lin Wan had to ask about the situation when she returned to Qingyunju. She confirmed that Madam Bai had already helped her arrange the housekeeping in the second room properly. She stopped talking and went back to her room to change her clothes for going out to see guests. She came out to explain to Chuncao and Qiuyue who were staying in Qingyunju today. Then she took Dongxue and Madam Bai to Xiangmanlou by car.
The journey was smooth, and when Lin Wan arrived at Xiangman Tower, it was still two quarters of an hour before the agreed time.
Although Xiangmanlou had already opened to welcome guests at this time, there were only a few customers in the store.
The carriage with the Zhennan Marquis Mansion logo stopped in front of the restaurant, and the shopkeeper who received the message yesterday welcomed him out in person. When Lin Wan got out of the car, she planned to welcome Lin Wan and his servant to the private room on the third floor.
It was only about two quarters of an agreed time before it was completed. Based on Lin Wan's understanding of Qian Feifei, it might be possible that the person would arrive in a blink of an eye.
Lin Wan really wanted to stay in the lobby and wait outside in person and welcome Qian Feifei. Naturally, Madam Bai would not agree, so she left Dongxue to wait in the lobby downstairs, while Lin Wan took Madam Bai to the private room on the third floor first.
Lin Wan sat down in the private room and decided with the shopkeeper about the dishes to be served later.
After confirming the good dish, Lin Wan and Madam Bai talked in unison.
The excitement of meeting an old friend is not only Lin Wan, but also Madam Bai.
Although Madam Bai eventually became Lin Wan's madam, Madam Bai never forgot about Madam Qian.
When I was in Qingzhou Prefecture, because the two families lived close, Lin Wan and Qian Feifei were good friends, so there were naturally many opportunities to meet Madam Bai and Mrs. Qian. Although it was impossible to meet every day, they could meet each other every few days.
An and his children followed Lord Qian to Qingzhou Prefecture for seven or eight years. Before, Madam Bai worked in Prince Shan’s Mansion in the capital for several years but didn’t see An and didn’t think anything about it.
Since she came out of Prince Shan's mansion to join An, although she had been with An for a short time, she had been with Lin Wan, but there were a little bonds like relatives between her and An. This time she had only been separated for half a year but missed her very much.
I thought I had to wait for Lord Qian to be transferred back to the capital to see An again, but I didn't expect An would take Qian Feifei back to Beijing in advance.
However, Madam Bai is not Lin Wan. Lin Wan may just be immersed in the joy of reunion with Qian Feifei. As Madam Bai, who was born and raised in this era, naturally thought more and more deeply than Lin Wan, and soon guessed An’s thoughts.
An was willing to leave Lord Qian and stay alone in Qingzhou Prefecture. Rather than saying that An was concerned about Qian Yingjun, son who was preparing for the exam in Beijing, An was worried about Qian Feifei's marriage, who was getting older.
Qian Feifei is three years older than Lin Wan, which means Qian Feifei is already twelve years old this year!
As a woman of this era, it is time to start looking at each other's marriage. Unless An intends to let Qian Feifei marry in Qingzhou Prefecture, An will not continue to hide in the small area of Qingzhou Prefecture.
About a quarter of an hour later, Lin Wan heard Dongxue's cheerful voice coming from outside.
Sister Feifei is here!
Lin Wan didn't care about any reserved etiquette, so she stood up and opened the door to greet her in person.
Soon, two little girls who had not seen each other for half a year hugged each other tightly, and Madam Bai and An shook their heads.
Fortunately, there were no other guests on the third floor at this time, and neither Madam Bai nor An had spoken to stop him, nor did he intend to scold the two girls for their incompetence.
After the two little girls were calmer, Madam Bai urged them to enter the private room first.
Lin Wan then woke up and hurriedly invited someone into the house and formally greeted An.
"Wanwan is even more beautiful!" An pulled Lin Wan up and down and couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, what An wants to sigh is not only that Lin Wan is more beautiful, but that Lin Wan is becoming more and more noble.
Lin Wan's birth in her previous life was very ordinary. Although she didn't feel like an ordinary farm girl, she really didn't have any nobleness.
Under the careful guidance of Madam Bai, although the financial difficulties have improved, they are still not noble enough.
Unexpectedly, in just half a year, he had a completely different change. Now Lin Wan's every move has given An a sense of nobleness and naturalness. As expected, the environment makes people!
Let’s look at Qian Feifei again. Although she was raised by her since she was a child, she also had a nanny who was taken out of the capital. However, she was still not as good as a capital in the capital for many years.
Although it only took two days to return to the capital, An had suffered a lot of blows. Now looking at Lin Wan again, An felt even more regretful that he did not listen to Madam Bai's advice that day and asked Qian Feifei to go to Beijing with Lin Wan.
Although Qian Feifei also felt the change in Lin Wan, she was not as touched as An, so she pulled Lin Wan and whispered.
An took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes quietly. His heart was sore just now that his eyes were covered with tears.
Although Madam Bai has no children, she has been immersed in the capital for decades. She understands An’s mood better than the two little girls. She holds An’s hand and pats it gently to show comfort.
Lin Wan, who was pulled by Qian Feifei to say private words, calmly responded to Qian Feifei, who was in a turbulent mood, while observing An.
Qian Feifei did not notice the tears in An's eyes, but Lin Wan saw it.
Lin Wan didn't think that An would be so excited that she was crying when she met her and Madam Bai again. So there must be other reasons. What exactly would it be?
Did the Qian clan give them a look after returning to Beijing?
It is unlikely to think about it. Although Lord Qian is not considered the legitimate branch of the Qian clan, he is also a relatively outstanding branch. According to Madam Bai, the Qian clan not only has high expectations for Lord Qian, but also attaches great importance to Qian Yingjun, who passed the exam for scholar at the age of 16.
One of the An and Qian Feifei is the legitimate wife of Lord Qian, Qian Yingjun's biological mother, and the other is the sister of Mr Qian's beloved daughter Qian Yingjun's compatriots. They should not be looked down upon by the Qian clan.
When Lin Wan found An, who was sitting on the other side and talking to Madam Bai, her eyes floated towards her and Qian Feifei from time to time, she knew that this matter was related to her and Madam Bai and Qian Feifei. Thinking of what Madam Bai had talked to her before, Lin Wan immediately had a guess.
