Chapter 920 Dong Mansion
Chapter 920 ·Dong Mansion
Bai Rongxuan and the other two were treated as guests of honor and invited them to the backyard to rest. The shopkeeper who was busy sorting the goods heard the news and quickly served tea to entertain himself. "Mr. Bai, please sit down. The shopkeeper has already gone to the house to notify him. I guess there will be news soon."
He has been in business for many years and has a unique vision. He can see at first glance that Bai Rongxuan is in a slight state, not like a normal man, and he couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
Bai Rongxuan hid behind Shang Junzhuo a little uncomfortable.
The shopkeeper immediately reacted, said nothing, and just spoke politely.
Shang Junzhuo glanced at Bai Rongxuan and turned to the side with a smile.
After a while, the servant who ran to deliver the letter rushed over with the servants of the Dong family. The person who was traveling with him was Sun Xun. He had not reacted for a while after seeing Bai Rongxuan. He was stunned for a long time before opening his mouth wide, "You...why are you here?"
Bai Rongxuan took two steps forward, but had no time to deal with him, and said bluntly, "Is it convenient to see my cousin Yuli if I have something to do?"
Since Sun Xun recognized Bai Rongxuan's identity, he could naturally guess that something big happened through her dress. He nodded without saying a word, "Okay, come with me now and say anything to the Dong family."
Bai Rongxuan took Shang Junzhuo and Wu Jie with him and got on the carriage and headed towards the Dong family.
Shang Junzhuo in the carriage whispered, "The Dong family is very powerful in Suzhou. With their help, it will be much smoother to return to Hangzhou."
Bai Rongxuan said, "At least you don't have to worry anymore, there is no place to stay at night."
Thinking of the hardships that had been suffered these days, the two looked at each other and sighed in relief.
Shang Junzhuo said, "I really didn't expect you to persevere. I thought you would give up halfway."
Everything Bai Rongxuan suffered in her previous life was even more than that at this moment, and she chose the way she was at her own choice, so how could she give up easily?
The carriage was parked at the main entrance of the Dong family.
Bai Rongxuan was helped off the carriage by Shang Junzhuo. Although she was ready, she still couldn't help but change color slightly when she looked up. On one side of the spacious street, the vermilion gate was magnificent, with two vivid stone lions standing on both sides, and then there were several rows of willow trees with lush branches and leaves and green. Just above the gate stood a golden plaque with the words "Dongfu" written on it. The pen was full of ink and the universe was filled with the world. It was really a rare good word, but I don't know which one came from.
Bai Rongxuan was secretly surprised.
The main door was not opened, only the corner door on the side was opened.
Sun Xun stepped forward to lead the way, "Xuan..."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Rongxuan was interrupted with his eyes. He had to change his words, "Young Master Bai, let's go from here."
Bai Rongxuan nodded, followed Shang Junzhuo and Wu Jie, and entered the Dong family through the corner gate. The person with his own doorman came forward to greet him, "Brother Xiao Xun, what are you doing in the hot weather?"
Sun Xun smiled politely, "These relatives from Hangzhou, hurry up and ask someone to carry the sedan chair."
Everyone in the Tang family Dong’s mansion in Hangzhou knows it.
The concierge did not dare to delay and immediately ordered people to carry three sedan chairs over.
Sun asked, "Young Master Bai, please get into the sedan chair."
What size is this yard, and you still need to sit in a sedan chair?
Bai Rongxuan was a little confused, but did not refuse. Sun Xun opened the curtain for her, and Bai Rongxuan sat in politely. Shang Junzhuo was the least used to sitting in a sedan chair, which was small and narrow, so he couldn't breathe. However, since he arrived at the Dong family, the guest would follow the host's wishes, and he still had to follow his habits. Before Sun Xun came forward, she sat in the sedan chair.
But Wu Jie said he didn't sit in anything, "I'm just a servant, so there's no reason to sit in a sedan chair. I'll just serve you aside."
Seeing that he was determined, Sun Xun did not insist. With a wave of his hand, the sedan chairkeeper steadily lifted the sedan chair. Everyone walked through the flower gate, circled around, passed the garden of the Dong Mansion, and then entered the back house.
The garden of Dong Mansion was renovated last year. All the most famous craftsmen in Suzhou City were invited. They saw flowers, rockery and strange rocks, and a lake of clear ponds, making people feel refreshed and happy to see.
It’s a pity that Wu Jie was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery at this moment. He followed the sedan chair with some anxiety, his heart pounding.
The sedan finally stopped in front of a door, and Sun Xun stepped forward and said, "Young Master Bai, we're here."
Bai Rongxuan got out of the sedan chair and saw a plaque standing on the door, with the words "Jiaoyuan" written in beautiful handwriting.
The beautiful girl of heaven... is indeed worthy of Dong Yulu's identity.
Some people in the inner courtyard heard the noise, and a few little maids dressed in red and green ran out happily, "Brother Xiao Xun, why are you here?"
Sun Xun asked them, "Where is the lady?"
A maid covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm not in the yard, maybe I've gone to the old lady's place."
As the marriage period approaches, Dong Yulu and Mrs. Dong cherish this time together. As long as there is nothing to do, Dong Yulu must go to his grandmother to accompany him. After all, this far-reaching marriage will be high and far away from now on, and I don’t know when I see you again.
Sun Xun asked again, "Who is on duty in the yard?"
The little maid said, "It's Sister Indigo."
Sun Xun nodded, "Call her to the flower hall."
There was a little maid who was ordered to find someone.
Sun Xun led Bai Rongxuan and the other two into the yard.
The little maids didn't recognize Bai Rongxuan, and they all hid aside and looked at her quietly. Someone lowered his voice and whispered, "Huh? Why did Brother Xiao Xun bring the man outside into the backyard?"
"I'm afraid something is wrong? Could it be the craftsman who repaired the house?"
Bai Rongxuan straightened her back and just pretended that she didn't hear anything.
Several people entered the flower hall, and Sun Xun asked them to sit down. Without waiting for his order, a maid brought in hot tea and fruit. Bai Rongxuan couldn't help but wonder, is this the rule of the wealthy family? The refreshment had arrived just after the guests sat down. When was this time to prepare? Could it be that the water kept boiling?
Sun Xun looked at Bai Rongxuan secretly, as if he had a lot of words to ask, but he didn't dare to speak. While he was struggling, Indigo rushed over, "What are you asking for me?"
As she said, she glanced at the other people in the flower hall, and saw that no one recognized him, she looked at Sun Xun in surprise - why did she suddenly bring these strangers in?
Sun Xun said, "When will the eldest lady come back?"
"How can I know this?" said Indigo. "If the old lady is in a good mood and keeps supper, she will not be able to come back at night? What's wrong?"
Sun Xun said, "Can you find a way to give the eldest lady a voice so that she can come back quickly?"
Indigo frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? There is a reason for this. You have to tell me what happened so that I can help you find a way. This is a terrible person, and he will be confused."
Sun Xun had no choice but to say, "A relative is coming from Hangzhou, and I'm rushing to see the eldest lady."
Indigo's eyes fell on Bai Rongxuan and others again.
She had accompanied Dong Yulu to Hangzhou before, and she had seen all the people from the Tang family. Shang Junzhuo was naturally not among them. Wu Jie did not come at that time, and she did not recognize anyone. There was only one Bai Rongxuan who felt familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who it was.
Indigo said, "Is it very urgent? Can't you wait for the eldest lady to come back? You also know the old lady's temper. It is most taboo for others to secretly pass messages. If I am caught by her, I will definitely be scolded..."
Bai Rongxuan listened and stepped forward, "Sister Indigo, I really have something important to see Cousin Yulu, and I have to bother you to help you pass it on."
Her voice was crisp and not like a man.
Indigo was slightly stunned and couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
It didn't matter when she saw that it was okay, she suddenly reacted, finally recognized Bai Rongxuan's identity, and said dumbfoundedly, "Miss Xuan... why are you... dressing up?"
"It's a long story." Bai Rongxuan smiled slightly, "Please be sure to help."
Indigo was still a little dazed, but he also realized that the matter was serious. She didn't dare to say anything anymore and nodded solemnly, "I'll go to the old lady's place now."
