Red makeup against the world

Chapter 24 Mediation
They are all people with clear minds, and they can see through at a point. After that, Han Runiang let go of other thoughts and treated He Qingsong wholeheartedly.

And He Qingsong fell in love with her at first sight, but Han Runiang couldn't help but smile, and she didn't even say a few words to him, only thinking that she was grateful for her life experience.Seeing this change, she thought she was living comfortably in Xu's house, and let go of her worries.

The relationship between the two gradually became closer, but Han Runiang still strictly adhered to the bottom line, which made him feel even more itchy.Years later, Han Runiang was extremely grateful to Xu Wanzhen for persuading him now.

The two were talking in the backyard, and Wang Zhihua was waiting for Mrs. Xu in the flower hall.

The meeting time agreed with Master Qian was originally Shen Shi, but Wang Zhihua was worried and waited for it before the time.

I saw Mrs. Xu wearing a navy blue Zhang satin skirt, on which was embroidered with gold thread, with the pattern of ten thousand characters less than her head. She had her gray hair in a bun, inserted a white jade comb with Ruyi cloud pattern, and wore an emerald on her forehead. Gem wiped his forehead, and walked over with Bi Luo.The overall attire was simple yet dignified, showing Mrs. Xu's demeanor to the fullest, not too eye-catching, but also seemed to attach importance to this meeting, which was very in line with the identity of a mediator.

Bi Luo served Mrs. Xu to drink candied date tea slowly, while Wang Zhihua had something on his mind, so he didn't touch the tea in front of him, just kept looking at the door.For a moment the two sat together speechless.

As soon as he arrived at Shenshi, the little girl came to report: "The master of the Qian family is here." Wang Zhihua immediately stood up when he heard this, bowed and waited.Seeing him like this, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but secretly sighed "poor parents in the world".Thinking about this, Wang Zhihua is also one of the top wealthy businessmen on Jiangnan Road, and his family property is only a lot more than that of the Qian family. Now his son's life is in Qian Feng's hands, so he has to let him decide.

With the sound of unhurried footsteps outside the door, Qian Feng appeared at the door of the flower hall, and Wang Zhihua quickly opened the curtain to invite him in.After he sat down, Biluo served Xinyang Maojian tea brewed in Ru kiln teacups.

Mrs. Xu, as the mediator, took the lead and said, "I don't know what Master Qian likes, so I have to serve him with the best tea in the house. Is it acceptable?" Qian Feng nodded slightly, and he still has to give some face.

"This matter started because of the Xu family. Mrs. Wang did something wrong and apologized to the old man."

Mrs. Xu paused for a moment, and then said: "From my point of view, the Wang family has also paid the price. The property of the Xu family has now been sold to the He family, and there is nothing to offer right now. But as a mediator, I wish Guaranteed by the reputation of the Xu family, I ask Master Qian to hold his hand high."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhihua burst into tears of gratitude, and Qian Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.As the mediator of the Xu family, there was no need to do this, and Mrs. Xu's actions are admirable.

Wang Zhihua thanked him again and again, and said to Qian Feng: "Master Qian, what do you like about the Wang family's property, I will immediately go to the government to change the contract."

Seeing that Qian Feng was not moved, he gently rubbed his hand on the teacup, and said: "Old Madam, I have a heartfelt request."

When Mrs. Xu heard this, her heart tightened, and she said, "Please tell me."

I only heard Qian Feng say: "Please come out and see Miss Xu family."

"Why?" Mrs. Xu tightened her right hand on the handle of the chair, Bi Luo looked at Mrs. Xu uneasily, and Wang Zhihua had a begging look on her face.

But Qian Feng smiled lightly and said: "Don't be nervous, I don't have any thoughts of harming the eldest lady, I just want to see you."

Mrs. Xu thought for a moment, it was a matter of human life, and she didn't need to care about those men and women, not to mention that Qian Feng was old enough to be Xu Wanzhen's father, and it was Xu Wanzhen's idea to help Wang Zhihua.Then he raised his voice and said to Yulu who was guarding the door: "Miss, please come here."

When Yulu arrived at Yingyun Pavilion, Han Runiang was about to leave.Xu Wanzhen was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, why would Master Qian ask to see her?
But if you can't figure it out, just do it.Sangzi helped her change her clothes for meeting guests, put a white velvet flower on her temples, and put on a fine white cloth cloak because of the cold weather, and took Sangzi to follow Yulu to the flower hall.

This is the second time that Xu Wanzhen has come to Huating, the first time is for Mrs. Sun's divorce.

The flower hall is the place where the Xu family entertained guests. The decoration is simple and elegant, but compared with what I saw last time, it looks much more bleak.

Not only because of the winter, the pair of blue and white plum vases with folded branches and fruit patterns on both sides of the flower hall, the gold inlaid gourd vases on the ancient shelf, the red coral bonsai, and the agarwood pen holder on the desk were all gone. Sons and grandsons, I really did my best.In addition to the daily clothes and accessories that need to support the scene, a lot of antiques and treasures have been sold.

Xu Wanzhen entered the flower hall, lowered her head, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a haggard, thin old man and a middle-aged man who stood like a knife's edge. They must be Mrs. Wang and Mr. Qian.Xu Wanzhen greeted Old Master Wang first, and then saluted Qian Feng: "I have met Master Qian."

He heard a deep baritone say: "Miss, you are welcome."

After finishing speaking, she handed over a red sandalwood box: "This is a meeting gift." Xu Wanzhen glanced at Mrs. Xu, saw Mrs. Xu nodded slightly, and thanked her with a bow, while Sangzi stepped forward to take the box.

Qian Feng stared fixedly at the girl in front of him, a little dazed.I saw that she was tall and well-groomed. Because of her filial piety, she didn't see any jewelry on her body, which made her look as deserted as an empty valley orchid.It is similar to the bright girl in memory, except for the corners of the mouth and chin, there is no other trace of resemblance.

Time seems to have flowed back to 20 years ago, when there were three major water bandit forces in Yuezhou.

He was only 15 years old that year, with good water skills and being ruthless enough to himself, he controlled one of the forces.He led his brothers in and out of the water and out of the fire all day long, appearing and disappearing in the great lake of Hongze, Yuezhou, and the government had nothing to do with him.

It never occurred to him that the other two groups of water bandits conspired to deceive him when he was young, and wanted to destroy him so as to divide up the forces under his hands.Kidnapped the whole family of one of his brothers, forcing him to negotiate alone, and set a trap during the negotiation.

Luckily, he was smart enough to wear a water jacket next to his body, and the Fenshui Emei thorn was inserted into the boot. Seeing that the situation was wrong, he jumped into the lake to escape, but was seriously injured.Finally, relying on the good water quality, he hid in the lake for a day and a night before he escaped from the enemy's search net and took a boat to Changzhou.

Due to the nervousness along the way, the injury was only treated briefly, and it was almost exhausted when we arrived in Changzhou.

He forced himself into the "Su Family Medical Center" and then fainted.When he woke up again, there was a bright smile in his eyes, and he asked him crisply: "How long has it been since you were injured? Elder brother has already wrapped up your injury. You should use some porridge first and then drink medicine."

As he spoke, he handed him the warm japonica rice porridge.His most serious injury was on his right chest. Seeing that it was inconvenient for him to serve the porridge with his hands, the girl brought a spoon and asked him to use his left hand to serve the porridge.He looked at her pretty face and fell in love at first sight.
