Hold the thick thighs tightly [My father is a traitor]

Chapter 375 Chen Jiaoyi Returns

The rain became heavier, hitting the roof with a dull sound, and the room gradually felt damp.

Wan Niang and Madam Liu changed into dry clothes and sat in the house chatting.

However, the soundproofing in the compartment was not very good, and they could hear faint crying sounds in their ears.

"My daughter Yingzi is making a fuss. I don't know if she has returned home by now." Mrs. Liu looked out the window and saw no sign of the noise abating, and her face showed worry.

"Don't worry, Madam Liu. My Ayi is with her. Miss Liu must have returned home by now." Wan Niang said comfortingly.

Upon hearing this, Madam Liu smiled, and then said with a bit of disappointment, "This child is good in every way, except that his health is a little poor."

Wan Niang smiled awkwardly and said nothing, but she felt bad in her heart and was also worried about Pei Yi's health.

"Today, children from both our families went to see the shop. I have already greeted the shopkeeper. I think they also know that this business is not going well." Mrs. Liu said with a smile.

"My Yingzi is very open-minded, so nothing will happen. You should probably go home and comfort the child."

Hearing this, Wan Niang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Madam Liu, don't worry. My sister Qing is so young, how could she know so much? This time she came back, I'm afraid she wanted to show off to me how great she is."

"That's true. She is only three years old and really doesn't understand." Mrs. Liu agreed, covering her mouth with her hands, unable to suppress the smile on her lips.

"However, children are debts. No matter what they do, their parents have to cover for them. Don't worry, if my daughter loses money to your daughter, I will definitely make it up."

"Mrs. Liu, it's too polite to say that. Even though my daughter is young, she hasn't gone astray. It's not right for her to blame others for her mistakes." Wan Niang replied quickly.

Seeing Wan Niang's nervous look, Madam Liu sighed softly and said with feeling, "You are sensible, unlike the second daughter of the Xie family... I heard that she was secretly sent out of Yanjing by the Xie family and will not return before the wedding."

After these words, the people in the room fell silent, apparently remembering the bad luck that their children had encountered in the Xie family.

After a long time, Wan Niang seemed to be tired of the rain and winked at Zheng Da's wife, and then the window of the wing room was gently closed.

Seeing this, Madam Liu couldn't help but look at Wan Niang. Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"

Wan Niang looked at her, blushing slightly, and as if she had made up her mind, she said, "Madam Liu, you don't know that my sister Qing came back from Xie's house that day and asked me what is a co-wife and what is a concubine."

"I... I don't know where she heard that nonsense. After asking her carefully, I found out that she and Ayi had seen Second Miss Xie and Prince Su having a secret meeting."

Madam Liu nodded in understanding. She had already investigated the incident that day, but she didn't know about the secret meeting. She couldn't help but feel curious and asked about what the two children had seen and heard at that time.

Wan Niang did not hide anything and told her everything.

The sound of rain outside gradually stopped, and Mrs. Liu's sigh was heard in the side room. "In the past, I thought that Miss Xie was a very beautiful girl, but now it seems that I don't know how to judge people."

Wan Niang also shook her head in silence at this man's behavior, but still expressed a different opinion, "I think Prince Su is also wrong. I heard that he asked Miss Pu for a lantern on the Lantern Festival, and then turned around and gave Miss Xie a folding fan. How can this man have the best of both worlds? Isn't this harming people?"

"That's true. My sister is the one who sees things more clearly." Mrs. Liu patted Wan Niang's hand and replied.

"After returning home, my sister Qing took out the spiritual skin ointment given to her by Princess Anping, saying that Second Miss Xie also accepted it and it would definitely be able to cure Miss Pu's face, so she wanted to give it to her. But it's a pity..." Wan Niang continued with regret.

Mrs. Liu also nodded sadly, "Your daughter is a good person, but it's a pity that things are unpredictable..."

The rain stopped and the sun returned to its original blazing heat. The group ended their whispers and left the room. No one cared that the crying sounds from next door had stopped at some point.

The other side of the room

Jin Xingman and her daughter looked at Mrs. Park in front of them with fear on their faces. Mrs. Park's eyes were red and her face was ferocious. She seemed to be trying her best to control her emotions, but it seemed that she would explode at any time.

Jin Xingman hid in her mother's arms, clutching her sleeves tightly with both hands, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Aunt...Aunt..."

"boom"

With a loud bang, the low table in the side room was suddenly overturned to the ground by Mrs. Park. The tea sets fell one after another, making a crisp sound, and the boiling hot tea also splashed on Jin Xingman and her daughter.

Jin Xingman hurriedly covered her burned cheek and stared in horror at Mrs. Park who had suddenly gone crazy.

Madam Park fell to the ground, growling with hatred: "Su Qian...Xie Wan Ning...you destroyed my dream, I will make you pay with blood!"

At that moment, Wan Niang, who was gradually moving away, lowered her eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes under her long eyelashes.

When she raised her eyes again, she looked bright again, and left with Madam Liu, talking and laughing, until they parted...

No one could have guessed what kind of waves this seemingly ordinary gossip would cause in the future.

At the same time, a muddy carriage drove quickly into the prosperous Yanjing, and its wheels rolled, leaving long traces on the streets that had just been rained on.

Inside the carriage, Chen Jiaoyi, with a haggard look on her face, lifted a corner of the curtain and looked at the scene outside with a wandering gaze.

She heard the hawking of the street vendors and saw passers-by smiling as if they were living a peaceful life. It seemed like just over a month had passed.

She lowered her eyes, her thoughts drifting back to the war-torn North City. Thinking of her parents' determination to send her back to Yanjing, and recalling the scene when Father Lin, whom she had only met a few times, took her away from Shulü Qi, these memories flooded into her heart like a tide, and tears could not help but fall down and drip onto the back of her hand.

A feeling of sadness spread over her.

After a long time, Chen Jiaoyi slowly came back to her senses, reached out and wiped away her tears, took out a yellowed letter from her sleeve, and held it tightly in her hand. It was a letter from Uncle Lin to his family.

She looked determined and ordered, "Go to the Lin family."

The coachman outside the carriage paused while whipping the horse, then turned around without hesitation and drove towards the Lin family's direction.
