In fact, the Madam Dowager had already mentioned Wei Fengyao's invitation this morning. She also said that she agreed to let the four sisters go to Prince Nan'an Mansion together, but she warned them to obey the rules and not to do anything out of line, which would damage the reputation of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang.
She even told them to come over to her courtyard together in the afternoon. Then, she would tell them some things about Prince Nan'an Mansion so that they would not do something unknowingly that might offend Princess Nan'an.
The reason why the Madam Dowager said this was because Wei Yuejiao only returned to the mansion once a year and missed the previous banquets of many nobles. Wei Qiuju was a concubine-born daughter and had never been to many mansions. Wei Yuewu was raised in the countryside and had never seen much of the world. On the whole, the Madam Dowager felt that of all the young ladies of the mansion, Wei Qiufu was the only one w
To the Madam Dowager, even though Wei Qiuju was her own granddaughter, she was born by a concubine, and she was both envious and selfish. Such a granddaughter was really worthless in the eye of the Madam Dowager.Wei Qiuju's face instantly turned pale after the Madam Dowager referred to her as a concubine-born daughter. She didn't dare to say anything else. She lowered her head, but she was unable to conceal the hatred in her heart.Wei Yuejiao was also a concubine-born daughter. Why did Wei Yuejiao have it while she was neglected?Wei Yuejiao had an awkward smile on her face. No matter what, she was still a concubine-born daughter. After glancing sideways at Wei Yuewu, she snorted coldly. She wouldn't be a concubine-born daughter for long. Mother said that when she entered the capital this time, she would definitely make her a legitimate daughter. She would definitely help her step on Wei Yuewu's head."Grandmother, will that cust
Shufei reported what she had heard truthfully."A senior maidservant of an aristocratic clan?" Wei Yuewu's hand paused. A trace of deep gleam flashed through the corners of her eyes. A senior maidservant of an aristocratic clan was just like Shufei and Huamo, and it was unlikely for her to be sent out as a concubine to others, especially to someone as inconspicuous as the Third Master.Whether it was within or outside the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, the Third Master had always been the most inconspicuous one of the three brothers, and the third branch had always been suppressed by the first and the second branches."That meant Yueya had been sent here to serve Fifth Elder Sister!" Wei Yuewu pondered for a moment and smiled. This was also the difference between Yueya and other maids."It should be like this. As for the details, I was unable to find out anything. Qingyan said that her mother and Yueya's mother were also distant cous
"Eldest Brother, do you know that I was previously engaged and had a fiance?" Wei Yuewu raised her small face and asked without dodging."Marquis Jing Yuan, Mo Huating!"This was something that the entire mansion of Marquis Hua Yang knew."Although Eldest Brother knows that Marquis Jing Yuan used to be my fiance, you definitely don't know that Second Elder Sister fell in love with Marquis Jing Yuan. The two of them conspired to kill me on my way back to the capital. The servants I brought from my maternal grandfather's home and the people sent by the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang to pick me up were all killed on a snowy night. Dozens of lives were lost like that."Thinking back to that day, Wei Yuewu's eyes flashed with a harsh expression. That scene was too tragic. Although she was strong-minded, every time she dreamed of it, she would wake up in fear.After all, she was just a weak young lady in her teens who had littl
"Well… I'm not clear about it either. But at that time, Marquis Hua Yang would occasionally send people over to deliver gifts to Miss. He heard that Young Miss loved reading books, so he especially found some rare books for her, and he would occasionally come to Eldest Master and the others. But because of his own unsolved matters, Eldest Master and the others did not want him to see Miss, but he would still sneak in. "Yucai's mother said as she recalled.The so-called Eldest Master was Wei Yuewu's Eldest Uncle."At that time, I was in charge of the courtyard affairs. Eldest Master instructed me not to let Marquis Hua Yang see Miss. However, Young Miss also wanted to see Marquis Hua Yang. So I could only pretend not to see them meeting each other. On one occasion, when Marquis Hua Yang sneaked in again, I heard him talk about the young lady from the Tu family..."Yucai's mother hesitated for a moment.The young lady f
"Then it must be the Second Young Lady or Sixth Young Lady!" Inexplicably, a pair of beautiful eyes flashed in Xie Qingzhao's mind. When that kind of gaze landed on you, you would feel its owner was so gentle and attractive…However, in the next moment, he directly gave up this idea. He wasn't a person who judged people by their appearances. He paid more attention to talent, which was why he valued this Fourth Miss Wei in front of him.These words caused Wei Qiufu to ponder for a moment. Although she felt that Wei Yan would never do such a thing, but what if she had the help of her mother Lady Li, who had always wanted to suppress the third branch? Of course, Wei Qiufu didn't know that Wei Qiuju ganged up with Lady Li at that time. Wei Qiuju's failure represented Lady Li's miscalculation.As for the likelihood of Wei Yuewu's involvement, she was actually not too sure. However, this Sixth Younger Sister was definitely not a cowardly person. Take
Wei Yuewu had been thinking about the writing brush. Why did a writing brush that seemed to have not the slightest trace of significance have to be sent into her hands?Could it be that because this was a man's writing brush, so it was sent to her to frame her?However, she was going to Prince Nan'an Mansion tomorrow, so it was impossible for her to bring this writing brush with her. Even if they wanted to frame her, it was impossible for anyone to send people from Prince Nan'an Mansion to the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang to investigate.Moreover, a small writing brush could be hidden anywhere.Wei Yuewu propped herself up on one elbow and listened to Wei Qiufu and the others chatting. Her long eyelashes flashed twice, and her watery eyes stared blankly at a certain point in the air. She didn't notice that Han Ming was looking at her all the time.The curtains were raised and two maids walked in with some exquisite frui
Wei Yuewu asked Huamo to bring a purse, and she put the safety talisman Wei Qiuju had given her into the purse before hanging it on her waist.Seeing Wei Yuewu hang the purse at her waist, Wei Qiuju thought she had succeeded in her scheme, so she didn't have the mood to stay here with Wei Yuewu any longer. After a few perfunctory words, she went back on the pretext that she had suddenly remembered something she needed to attend to."Huamo, bring me another purse, exactly the same as this one." After Wei Qiuju left, Wei Yuewu, who was sitting in front of the mirror and let Huamo do the makeup for her, gave the instruction.The purse that Huamo had just taken was the most ordinary type which was sometimes given to the servants as a reward. Normally, when Huamo and the others had time, they would casually make a few of these purses. They were not determined to make it very beautiful. Most of the time, they did not even change the pattern.
"It's different today. Fengyao has made some rearrangements to the inner courtyard. It's very different today." The Heir-apparent of Prince Nan'an was in a hurry to enter the inner courtyard. Therefore, his words were quite exaggerated because he was afraid that the Fourth Prince would not believe him and refuse to go to the inner courtyard with him.When he thought of the young lady who had held him in spell, the Heir-apparent of Prince Nan'an felt more and more restless!"The heiress-apparent has rearranged the inner courtyard? Is she going to entertain guests?" A young master asked casually."Of course. The young ladies of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang are all here. Of course, Fengyao has to rearrange the inner courtyard. It is really different from before. I guarantee that you won't regret having a walk around." The Heir-apparent of Prince Nan'an was determined to get everyone into the inner courtyard and therefore kept praising Wei Fengy
