Lord of Fortune

"Maid?" Han Tongzhi was also a little embarrassed for a moment: "Since you are a maid, why are you walking in front of the young lady?"

"Miss hasn't seen the master for many years, and she was a little timid for a while, so I ordered my servant to come and see first." Mo Lan lowered her head.

Han Tongzhi's expression remained unchanged, but it was not easy to get angry.

He looked around between the remaining two women, but he saw that the two women were both wearing monk robes, without any pearls on their heads, standing side by side, and it was really hard to tell who was the master and who was the master. servant.

It is very embarrassing to admit his daughter wrong once, if he admits wrong again, he will lose all his old face.

Han Mengqin watched from the sidelines, the sarcasm in his eyes grew stronger.When we meet today, her father can't even recognize her as a daughter. Let's see how he has the face to play the scene of father-daughter love again in the future!

Suddenly, Han Tongzhi's eyes lit up, and he walked up to Han Mengqin in a few steps: "You are my father's Qin'er, right? Like, you look so much like your mother!"

Han Mengqin smiled faintly: "My mother is the best woman in the world, and I'm also very happy to be able to look like her." It's not the ruthless Han family.

When Han Tongzhi heard this, his face twitched.To him, Han Mengqin's mother was not a good woman, but his disgrace.But after all he didn't dare to speak ill of Ding Lai anymore, the ex-wife he hated the most had already become the person he needed to look up to in his whole life.If Ding Yan appeared in front of him now, he would even need to salute her.

"Father, don't you agree with me?" Han Mengqin looked at Han Tongzhi's changing expression with amused expression.

"You are right, your mother..." Han Tongzhi said with difficulty, "He is indeed... a very good person."

"Before, I was afraid that my father would have prejudice against my mother because of her remarriage. Now it's great that my father is so reasonable. I hope that other people in the house are as reasonable as my father."

"That's natural." Han Tongzhi silently wiped the sweat from his brow.

He originally wanted to use his father's identity to intimidate Han Mengqin so that she would be obedient after returning to the mansion.Unexpectedly, the conversation between the two was only a few sentences, and the dominant power was firmly controlled by Han Mengqin, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

That's all, let's coax people back to the mansion first.After returning to the mansion, Han Tongzhi didn't believe that Han Mengqin could pull out the palm of his hand!

"Qin'er, back then you were weak, and my father sent you to the Buddha to practice cultivation in order to keep you safe. Now that you have grown up and your body and bones have recovered, I will follow my father back to the mansion. Right. Over the years, my father and your grandmother have missed you very much."

Han Tongzhi made excuses without changing his face.

When Han Mengqin saw that Han Tongzhi said a few words, he said that it was her good to abandon her, and he had a new understanding of Han Tongzhi's thick skin.

However, she didn't expose it, just nodded: "Of course I am willing to go back with my father. However, I have a lot of things, and I'm afraid I won't be able to transport them all back in a while."

"It doesn't matter, Weifu specially brought two young servants here, let them help you move."

Han Tongzhi thought about it. When Han Mengqin was sent to the nunnery, he only brought a small burden.She has been living in a nunnery these years, no matter how many things there are, where can there be more?

When Han Tongzhi saw the pots of flowers that had been brought out, his face turned blue.

He tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "Qin'er, why don't these flowers stay in the temple? After returning home, father will find you some new pots of flowers."

Mo Zhu stepped forward and said crisply: "Master, among the flowers that Miss wants to bring back, there are lily of the valley, orchid, saffron...these flowers can be used as medicine, and the flower seeds are brought back by Miss through hard work. It's extremely rare. Miss also spent a lot of effort to plant it, and each pot is worth a thousand taels of silver."

Both lily of the valley and saffron grow at extremely high altitudes. When Han Mengqin got the flower seeds, no one thought that she could actually grow them.

Najia orchid is also a kind of heat-loving flower, which is not suitable for growing in the place where Han Mengqin lives now.But Han Mengqin planted this flower, and it still grows very well.Mo Lan and Mo Zhu could only attribute this to Han Mengqin's good luck, he could grow whatever he wanted, other than that, they couldn't find any other explanation.

Han Tongzhi: "...Is that so? Are these planted by Qin'er?"

"The servant dare not lie to the master. Miss, she seems to be born good at growing these flowers and plants. No matter how difficult it is to raise flowers, she can take care of them well."

Han Tongzhi couldn't help but change the way he looked at the flowers.

These pots of seemingly inconspicuous flowers are so valuable?This was really beyond his expectation.

You must know that Han Tongzhi was born in a poor family. Although he is now an official, his family background is not rich. Apart from visiting other people's homes, it is extremely rare to see such precious flowers.He only heard the names of the flowers that Mo Zhu mentioned, but did not see the flowers. He never thought that his daughter would plant so many pots at once.

"Since these flowers are so precious, we should take them all away, but the rest of the flowers..."

Mo Lan stepped forward with a smile, and took over the conversation: "Returning to the master, the rest of the flowers are also of great value. For example, this flower is a plain wintersweet, this flower is a bone-red plum, and this flower is a green calyx..."

The flowers planted by Han Mengqin are mainly rare varieties of plum, orchid, chrysanthemum and peony, in addition to those used for medicine.

Due to different flowering seasons, some flowers have not yet bloomed, but just looking at the growth of these flowers, we can see that these flowers are well maintained.

These flowers don't need to be told by Mo Ran, Han Tongzhi also knows their value.

Han Tongzhi: "..."

Unexpectedly, his daughter would have such ability!If all these flowers were sold, Han Mengqin might be richer than him!

Han Tongzhi finally put aside his indifference towards his eldest daughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time.In any case, based on her skill in growing flowers alone, she deserves his attention.

Mo Lan and Mo Zhu looked at each other, and the corners of their lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile.

They were obviously satisfied with the blow to Han Tongzhi.

The lady said that they went back to the Han Mansion to enjoy the blessings, not to suffer.That being the case, it is very necessary to let the masters of the Han family know how powerful their young lady is.

There were too many precious flowers that could not be crowded or touched. In the end, Han Tongzhi went to find five more cars to transport all these flowers back.

A line of six cars was driving on the street, and the scene looked quite spectacular.

When the common people saw it, they talked a lot: "Which nobleman is this?"

"I recognize the carriage at the beginning. It is the carriage of Han Tongzhi's mansion! The person sitting in that carriage is Han Tongzhi!"

"There is a little lady sitting beside him. Could it be that the little lady is the son-in-law of Han Tongzhi's family?"

"That's not right, the daughter of Han Tongzhi's family is just ten years old, and the little lady in the car is almost as old as she is?"

"You don't know that, the little lady in the car is probably the eldest daughter of Han Tongzhi. I heard that Han Tongzhi was very displeased with the eldest daughter, so he sent her to the nunnery early on. Don't ask. In the past two days, I don't know why, and I have to send someone to pick her up, which is really confusing."

"In the past, Han Tongzhi doted on the daughter-in-law of the family so much, but now that Han Tongzhi's eldest daughter has been brought back, the Han family may be quite noisy..."

The common people were right. Mrs. Han got the news as early as when Han Tongzhi ordered people to drive six carriages through the city ostentatiously.This Mrs. Han is not someone else, she is the widowed cousin who had acquainted with Han Tong back then.

After learning that Han Tongzhi had put up such a big battle to bring back Han Mengqin, Mrs. Han almost tore the veil in her hand.

The old mother beside Mrs. Han said to her master: "Ma'am, we must give Han Mengqin a warning and let her understand that we are the ones who have the final say in this Han's mansion."

"That's natural! If you don't suppress her arrogance, I'm afraid she will climb on top of me!" Mrs. Han narrowed her eyes: "It's best if this girl is obedient. If she is not obedient, I have plenty of ways Clean her up!"

When Han Tongzhi brought Han Mengqin back home, Mrs. Han and her daughter Han Mengling were waiting in front of the gate in full dress.

"Master is back?" Mrs. Han smiled softly and virtuously.

"Daddy, Daddy, Ling'er misses you!" Han Mengling rushed forward and hugged Han Mengqin's leg coquettishly.

Seeing his lovely wife and loving daughter, Han Tongzhi couldn't help but feel better. He patted his daughter's head: "Is Ling'er obedient at home today?"

Han Mengling raised her chin proudly: "That's natural, Ling'er is the most obedient."

The family of three talked and laughed, making Han Mengqin seem more and more out of place.

After a while, Mrs. Han said as if she had just seen Han Mengqin in the carriage: "Is this the elder sister? Just now, Ling'er and I were busy talking to the master, so we didn't notice you. I'm really sorry." live."

She said apologetic words on her mouth, but her eyes were full of provocation.

"Don't worry, eldest sister. When you return to the Han family in the future, as the mistress of the house, I will take good care of you and will not shorten your expenses."

These words hinted at Han Mengqin that in the future Han Mengqin's food and clothing expenses would all be under her control.

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Han stroked the jasper exquisite hairpin on her head again: "You are a little girl, it is not enough to dress up so neatly, I will send you some jewelry tomorrow, so you can dress up."

Mrs. Han and Han Mengling are dressed exquisitely and elegantly, while Han Mengqin is only wearing coarse clothes, the contrast is very obvious.

After hearing this, Han Tongzhi felt that Mrs. Han was concerned about Han Mengqin, but Han Mengqin could tell that Mrs. Han was deliberately showing off in front of her, trying to provoke her so that she would get angry in front of Han Tongzhi. .

This kind of trick was used by Mrs. Han, who was still the cousin of the house, a few years ago, before Ding Lai reconciled with Han Tongzhi.Although so many years have passed, unfortunately, Han Mengqin has an excellent memory.

Since Mrs. Han wants her to do something so much, how can she disappoint Mrs. Han?

"Since my wife said so, why don't you ask my wife to return all my mother's dowry to me first—for example, this jasper hairpin on your head, madam, was given to my mother by the Nan'an County Lord when she left the cabinet. Yes. And the pair of golden tortoise shells on my sister’s head, which my grandfather specially made for my mother.”

"Father has been an official for so many years, I think it will not be short of the wife's expenses. The wife should not have to live on my mother's dowry, right?"

As soon as these words came out, Han Tongzhi and Mrs. Han all changed their expressions.
