Chapter 3 How Sadness Becomes a River

Chen Ying knew that in such a situation, it was better to keep silent. However, there were some things that could not be avoided.

When Gao Wenjin's hand just held Chen Ying's arm, Lan'er took two steps at a time, rushed to Chen Ying, and pushed Gao Wenjin away roughly. He pointed his hand and said in a crying voice: "Who is she?"

"Who are they?" Li Daozhen's face became unfair and she said coldly: "Your good looks?"

Chen Ying's nerves were a little rough, but Lan'er had some strange emotions towards him, and he felt it. Chen Ying also understood Lan'er. Lan'er was persecuted because of her reasons. She was worried that Gao Wenjin would steal her position, which was normal. However, Chen Ying felt a little confused about Li Daozhen's reaction.

"She is Gao Wenjin, and she is my sister I recognize." Chen Ying ignored Li Daozhen and pulled Gao Wenjin to introduce to Lan'er: "She is also a miserable person. You are my eldest maid. You will take Wenjin more in the future... Lan'er will take Wenjin, Wenxiu and Huaide to the treasury to get some cloth, buy some new clothes, and buy some daily necessities."

"Sister Wen Jin, do you need something? Don't be polite. I'll buy it for you later."

Lan'er took Chen Ying's arm and leaned her head slightly to look at Gao Wenjin with a provocative look, with a faint threat in her eyes.

It can be said to be quite pertinent that Gao Wenjin is not beautiful. Her hair is slightly yellow and her face is sallow. She has just recovered from a common serious illness. The key is that her cheeks have no flesh and her eye sockets are deep. The only exception is that she is slightly raised, and her eyes are looking at Chen Ying with her eyes as bright as jade.

Although Lan'er was born in the first year of Daye, she was fifteen years old this year. Gao Wenjin was indeed born in the second year of Renshou and seventeen years old.

However, Lan'er used to follow the Xu family. The Xu family was well-off and did not have enough food for Lan'er. Therefore, Lan'er's nutrition was still as good as her. However, Gao Wenjin was different. Since she was five years old, Gao Ying was killed and her family was deprived of her family. She was displaced with Gao Han. Originally, they left Chang'an and planned to return to the hometown of Bohai, but when they arrived at Tongguan, they had no money left. They could only live temporarily in Tongguan. At the beginning, the Gao family just wanted to save enough money and return to the Bohai Sea, but as time went on, they even became a problem for survival. Therefore, living in a long-term malnutrition environment, Gao Wenjin weighed less than 70 kilograms and was not as tall as Lan'er.

Lan'er and Gao Wenjin's growth environment are completely different. Although Lan'er is a maid, she was loved by Xu Jingzong in the past and then received meticulous care from Chen Ying. At this time, although Lan'er is the body of a maid, she is the life of a young lady. Gao Wenjin has suffered the painful experience of family destruction and separation from her wife since she was a child. Her mind is more mature than Lan'er. Besides, there is a natural charm between Lan'er's eyebrows and eyes. Although Lan'er is two years younger than Gao Wenjin, Lan'er looks like a young girl.

Gao Wenjin seemed to have confirmed Lan'er's identity. After learning that Lan'er was Chen Ying's maid, she also looked at the other party curiously. Seeing that she was so close to Chen Ying and Lan'er, a faint sadness arose in Gao Wenjin's heart.

Li Daozhen was furious when she saw Chen Ying and Lan'er so close, but this anger was not vented.

It’s not that Li Daozhen is too considerate of the overall situation, but because although Li Daozhen is rude outside, she is actually very sensitive in her mind. Chen Ying took the initiative to put her arm on Lan'er's shoulder. This is not that Chen Ying is really intimate with Lan'er, but that she uses this method to suggest to herself that whether Lan'er or Gao Wenjin, they are all relatives and girls by Chen Ying.

From the eyes of Lan'er and Gao Wenjin, Li Daozhen knew that although Chen Ying was unintentional, Lan'er and Gao Wenjin had feelings for Chen Ying. In the future, they would drive them away from Chen Ying, and I'm afraid they would drive them away???

Inadvertently, Li Daozhen saw Xu Erniang and asked about Chen Ying's people. Li Daozhen also asked about the woman who stayed in the Chen family as a cook. This woman who stayed in the Chen family as a cook was a widow. When Xu Erniang saw Chen Ying, her eyebrows were also flashing with joy, but after waiting for a quarter of an hour, Chen Ying did not look at her directly. When Xu Erniang thought of her identity as a husband who had been defeated by her third marriage, her heart suddenly changed from joy to cold, and she became inexplicably sad. Her pretty face was filled with a gloomy face.

Li Daozhen suddenly had an inexplicable thought in his heart. This idea might even feel absurd. Chen Ying had the appearance of Pan An, especially Chen Ying's face, for women, it was simply a poison to penetrate the intestines.

As Chen Ying’s woman, I’m afraid Xu Erniang’s present may be her future.

Chen Ying knew that there was something, so he had to face it no matter what. After thinking about it, he decided to face it head-on. Chen Ying walked to Li Daozhen with a calm face and bowed to him and said, "Chen Ying greets the county lord Baicheng, the county lord Wan'an."

"Forgot"

Li Daozhen said with a quarrel: "My brother was worried about General Chen's health, so he ordered Daozhen to visit General Chen on behalf of his brother. The small gift was not respectful."

After saying that, Li Daozhen ignored Chen Ying's reaction and left in a hurry.

Chen Ying was left with a confused look on the spot. He thought to himself what happened to Li Mochou? The style of painting is wrong!!!

In fact, Li Daozhen was equated with Li Mochou in Chen Ying's heart. Chen Ying had not reacted yet, and Li Mochou had already secretly agreed to him.

...

In the study room in Hou Mochen's backyard, the study room was pitch black and there was no sight of five fingers. Hou Mochen Qian would sit on the couch like a statue.

As the footsteps sounded, Hou Mo Chen Qian would slowly look up and the door of the study room would slowly open.

Yu Qing entered the study with a lantern. Yu Qing lit up the candlesticks in the study bit by bit, like a butter candle as thick as a child's arm, illuminating the entire study as daytime. "Alang, the inner-speaking minister Dou Xiangguo is here, please see Alang."

"It seems that Chai still has smart people." Hou Mo Chen Qian shook his head slightly and said, "It's just a pity that Dou Wei is considered to be of high status and powerful, and it's not worthy of my exception."

"That old slave sent Dou Xiangguo back."

"No, I can hide for a while, but I can't hide for a lifetime. I can't solve the problem." Hou Mo Chen Qian would say lightly: "Let me open the middle door and welcome Dou Zhangguo."

"promise."

It didn't take long for Hou Mo Chenqian, who was wearing light clothes, would sit upright in the hall of Hou Mo Chen's mansion.

"You shouldn't have come." Hou Mo Chen Qian would look at Dou Wei who was slowly entering.

Dou Wei said: "But, I'm still here."

Hou Mochen Qian said, "How many years have we known each other?"

"We have known each other since the second year of the elephant, and it has been thirty-nine years."

"Yes, it's almost forty years." Hou Mo Chen Qianhui said with emotion: "Forty years, I think it's enough for you to understand me. It seems that you still don't understand me."

Dou Wei smiled bitterly and said, "I owe someone a favor, so... I have to come today."

Hou Mo Chen Qian would look calm and slowly get up, take off the scabbard made of crocodile skin from the table, and slowly pull out the cold-shining knife. Hou Mo Chen Qian would look at the cold-shining knife very seriously, and Dou Wei suddenly looked bad.

"You have reasons for you to come, and I have the difficulties I have to do." Hou Mo Chen Qian said loudly: "I'll ask you a question."

Dou Wei nodded: "Please speak"

"Using the ninth-rank official method, what rank is my Hou Mo Chen family?"

"No one can get the first-rank except the royal family. Hou Mo Chen family should be a well-deserved second-rank upper-middle family." Dou Wei said: "One of the eight major clans."

Hou Mo Chen Qianhui said again: "What kind of family is he?"

"Middle-to-high, barely, to be precise, it should be middle-to-middle."

Hou Mo Chen Qian will: "The middle and the upper ones are offended, and the lower ones are offended, you admit it."

Dou Wei nodded: "Not bad."

"You know the family motto of Houmo Chen."

"Brother Shi, I've never been here today."

"But you are still here. I will give you your face. Please bring this knife back."
