Chapter 162: Foolish Xiangling was Surprised to Hear the News from her Mother

In the front yard of the Rongguo Mansion, the Warm Pavilion, where Lin Daiyu lives.

"Cluck..."

Shi Xiangyun, with a straight smile, was out of breath, but she repeatedly asked, "What happened to Sun Hanlin? I heard that this man is usually the most arrogant, but I don't know that he acted like this at home!"

Ruan Rong raised her belly, shook her head, and said, "I haven’t heard anything from my Master regarding what happened to him."

Tanchun saw the opportunity and asked, "Sister Rong, has the Second Master of the Sun family ever seen the white elephant in the Department of Supervision? I heard from Brother Xue that the white elephant is more than three feet tall, and both of its teeth are the size of adults!"

Ruan Rong could not help laughing at her round eyes and exaggerated gestures. "If it were really that big, wouldn't it have been refined? Our Master said that the white elephant was not fully grown, and its size was smaller than the elephant next to it."

"Brother Xue is really boasting!"

Jia Tanchun got the answer here. Shi Xiangyun hurriedly asked, "Sister Rong, that guy in the blood character case a while ago..."

"All right, all right."

Li Wan separated these sisters and complained half-heartedly, "Sister Rong is pregnant, she can’t stand your constant questioning. Let her have a rest. If you want to know anything, just ask Xiangling."

When Sanchun and Shi Xiangyun heard the words, they quickly surrounded Xiangling and asked about Sun Shaozong's experience.

Even Lin Daiyu, at Ruan Rong's suggestion, got together with the sisters.

Only Li Wan and Xue Baochai remained with Ruan Rong.

Needless to say, Li Wan was a mature married woman, and Xue Baochai deliberately avoided suspicion because of Xiangling's original identity.

Ruan Rong was also a little confused, so she wondered, "Why didn't Lady Xue go to Zijin Street?"

Xue Baochai smiled and said, "My brother and mother are busy preparing for the wedding. But I am useless and can’t hope to be looked after by the Elders. So I can only come over to disturb my Aunt here."

If someone else said this, Ruan Rong would not believe it, but Xue Baochai was always shrewd. She heard that she was in charge of many things in the family. How could she be useless?

She uttered and suddenly felt dizzy. She turned her back and fell back.

"Xiangling?!"

"Concubine Zhen!"

There was chaos in the Warm Pavilion. Fortunately, Xiangling was just surprised, and it didn't matter much, so she soon woke up again.

But when she woke up, she didn't care about any manners or proprieties. She pushed the people away like crazy, grabbed the door, and ran out.

Others reacted fast, but Yingchun had always been slow to react, so she was almost knocked over by her.

"I’m sorry, Second Lady."

Ruan Rong had to make amends for her. "You know she was abducted when she was four or five years old, and now she hears that her biological mother has arrived. Of course, she is fascinated with joy, and she doesn’t deliberately lose her manners."

Yingchun and Xiangling were also familiar with each other. They didn’t care about anything. At Li Wan's command, the girls quickly helped Ruan Rong out.

At the gate of the courtyard, a group of young ladies plus a pretty widow, who were not convenient to meet any foreign guests, handed Ruan Rong over to the nannies and servant girls at the door.

Seeing Ruan Rong cross the threshold, Sun Shaozong's tall figure flashed out beside her, carefully picked her up with his eyes always on her, and escorted her to the carriage.

When the others saw this scene, they envied Ruan Rong for choosing the right man.

Li Wan, however, was full of mixed feelings. For a moment, she was envious and sad, and then she replaced herself as the main character.

She imagined that she was held tightly in those two iron arms, and her body began to feel hot and soft, just like a white steamed bun that had just come out of the pot, and the scent emanating from it would make people want to give a bite.

Sun Shaozong, however, carefully put Ruan Rong in the carriage and got into the carriage at once, waiting for Zhang Cheng to drive the carriage out of the Rongguo Mansion.

Looking back, Ruan Rong's eyebrows showed some loneliness. He immediately guessed that she must have heard about Xiangling's mother, and thought of her family in Kingdom Qian Xiang.

So he quickly reached out and hugged her in his arms. He made a promise, "Don't worry. When the child is a little older, I will take you to live in Kingdom Qian Xiang for a few months, so that the father-in-law can recognize his grandson."
