"I have no idea what your granny meant by giving the box to you. Maybe it was from your mother. Just put it away and look at it when you have time. At least it’s something that can let you feel comfortable with memory of the past."
Lady Tu did not know that the box in her package actually contained a dark golden case. She was also stunned.
As the Tu family had deep connections with the royal family, Lady Tu knew very well about what the case represented.
Normally, such an article could not appear in her family, not even in the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang despite the marquis’s position as a senior officer. When Lady Tu thought of her unusual mother-in-law, she considered that it was unnecessary to say anything else. She had come here at the request of her mother-in-law to back Wei Yuewu up and give the case to her.
Wei Yuewu pondered for a little while before she nodded and put the case away. It was not the time to study the casket.
Wei Yuewu looked around at the servants in the yard, a trace of derision glimmering in her eyes. So she was right: all these servants were loyal to Lady Li and Wei Yan. Their disapproval and contempt were writ large on their faces, determined to drive her out of Lotus Courtyard. Unfortunately, she had no intention to leave once she moved in.Wei Yuewu slightly raised her chin toward Jin Ling as a gesture for her to take action. By now, Jin Ling understand her mistress without words being said. This was a result of accompanying her mistress during their journey to the capital. She comprehended Wei Yuewu’s meaning instantly and walked to the old maidservant angrily."Sixth Young Lady..." Seeing others echoing her words, the old maidservant in charge became more presumptuous. She turned to Wei Yuewu and was about to say something else when Jin Ling, who had by now stopped before her, slapped her hard in the face and then kicked her skillfully with the right fo
"Help the Second Young Lady in."Seeing Wei Yan crying so painfully, Lady Li became anxious too. Several maids and old maidservants went on to support Wei Yan who collapsed on the ground in her crying and helped her into the main apartment."Mother, mother, what should I do? That cheap girl wanted to cancel her engagement with Marquis Jing Yuan. What... what can I do? "Wei Yan let out a cry of grievance.Lady Li waved her hand. The maids and old maidservants got the signal and withdrew from the chamber.After all the servants leaved, Lady Li fondled Wei Yan's head with distress and comforted her, "Don't worry, Zhaoyi Tu was the witness of the engagement. Wei Yuewu can’t break it off so easily even if she wants to.""But if she made a scene... how... how would I be going to get married with Marquis Jing Yuan?"Wei Yan wiped off her tears, her pretty face showing hatred and jealousy.
"Miss, I don't think Shuiyun had any good intentions in requesting to see you. You'd better not go." Jin Ling reminded Wei Yuewu apprehensively while she helped combing Wei Yuewu's hair.They had just arrived at the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, a totally strange place to them. Jin Ling felt that it was better not to act rashly for the time being!Wei Yuewu glanced at Jin Ling in the mirror with approval. This maid was indeed smart, and she was able to recognize the plot that was going on behind the scene."This note was not written by Shuiyun." Wei Yuewu looked sideways at the note, a trace of mockery flashing in her eyes.Even though the characters were deliberately written in a slightly skewed manner, it was still discernable that the note was not written by an ordinary person. This could be judged by the strength that was applied when writing with the brush not only an entire character but also each stroke that formed the charac
When Wei Yuewu saw several servants coming over, she narrowed her eyes slightly. Then she stood up and walked with the others to the back garden.The head maidservant was now encouraged by the large company and she volunteered to lead the way for Wei Yuewu.The Octagonal Pavilion was noted for being the only pavilion with such a structure in the back garden and it was located at a corner of the back garden. Situated behind an artificial hill, the site was half hidden from the view by the rockery. No wonder such a secluded place struck fear into the head maidservant's heart. Moreover, snow was still falling down and the cold wind continued blowing. It was indeed not a good time to visit the pavilion in the back garden.The group of them took a side path around the pavilion. It was about half past three in the afternoon, still a quarter left before the appointed time. Wei Yuewu was not in a hurry. She even stopped several times to watch the snow
As much as Lady Li thought so, some trace of dread lingered in in her heart. She forced out a smile and gave two dry laughs. Pretending to be ignorant of the situation, she argued, "Mother, what exactly happened? How did that maidservant murder Shuiyun? I really don't know anything about it.""She is your own personal servant. How could you be so ignorant of her viciousness? How are you running this house?" The Madam Dowager was infuriated at the successive mistakes Lady Li had made today. She sent Lady Tu to the guest room only a moment ago. Now Lady Tu was back again due to another incident of the same nature as the previous issue. How could she contain her wrath?It was obvious that Nanny Qian was only a scapegoat. There were no one in this mansion, except for Lady Li and Wei Yan, who would take a move against Wei Yuewu at this moment. It seemed that they could not wait to make Wei Yuewu disappear immediately.The Madam Dowager was really in
The Madam Dowager asked Lady Tu and Wei Yuewu to have dinner with her. Lady Li, as the old lady's daughter-in-law, had to stand by and serve her mother-in-law with a smiling face before the latter allowed her to go. She didn't have any time to apply ointment to the wounds on her face.Wei Yuewu glanced at the dense blisters on Lady Li's face. Then she lowered her head with a cold smile. She waited on the Madam Dowager with even greater care, helping pick out fish bones for the Madam Dowager now and then. The meal went on with extreme attentiveness on her side, and the old lady was fully satisfied by her flattering gestures.After dinner, Wei Yuewu left with Lady Tu to the guest room and then returned to the Lotus Courtyard after a chat.Before reaching the gate of the yard, she saw Jin Ling looking around behind the gate. Seeing her mistress coming over, Jin Ling tried to suppress her joy on the face. However, she could not completely hide her
After a moment of silence, the Madam Dowager waved her hand at Wei Yuewu in disappointment as an indicator for her to retreat.Curtsying to the Madam Dowager, Wei Yuewu respectfully retreated and brought the newly selected servants back to her Lotus Courtyard. Since she had just moved in, she had to be familiar with everything at her place."Mother, let it be if Yuewu insists in breaking off the engagement. Speaking of Marquis Jing Yuan, he is indeed not a good guy to do something like that. Yuewu is not to blame for wanting to break off the engagement. After all, marriage should be a matter for the good of two families. Considering how things stand now, it's clear that he seeks both good reputation and benefits. He just wants way too much."Lady Zhang's words sounded like she was trying to comfort the Madam Dowager, but she in fact indirectly criticized Lady Li.Since Mo Huating and Wei Yan had an affair, it could be said that the
Mo Huating was indeed an excellent speaker.He spoke of the bloody case that involved adultery merely as a blunder in which he accidentally lost his way, which absolved him of all his responsibility. In the meantime, he also admitted his mistake. This tactic indeed helped him win people's sympathy."You are too polite, Marquis Jing Yuan. I really don't dare to accept your courtesy. Yuewu was almost assassinated on the way to the capital. It's said that those killers had set up the trap in advance, and they waited in ambush for her to arrive. Since she was just a new comer to the capital, I really can't figure out whom she had offended. Why did that person hate her so much as to kill her? The person had actually calculated her route to the capital and ordered people to wait there, just to kill a weak girl like her."Lady Tu remarked as she eyed Mo Huating with a cold smile.The effect of Lady Tu's words was such that she totally den
A number of people crashed out from behind the screen, and it was the number of people who came out that knocked over the screen that was placed there.Mrs. Tai, Zhang, Li Yue'er's mother in the Li Mansion, as well as Li Yue'er's grandmother, with a large class of maids and maids, which would appear in front of Li Yue'er with different looks.The dowager lady walked to Li Yue'er with a gloomy face and said coldly, "Miss Li, your house can really calculate, actually backstabbing our house, good ... good ... good, our temple is small, we really dare not invite Miss Li to live down , or please Miss Li hurry to go home!"Contrary to the dowager lady's face, the two on Li's house, the two people's complexion was extremely embarrassed, the words of the party, they naturally heard really.Mrs. Qu from Squire Qu's residence came over with Qu Yan.Someone from all three houses came and counted on getting things done face-to-face.Behind the screen, Wei Yue
The courtyard Wei Ziyang lived in was the same as before, with one end connected to the outer courtyard and the other to the inner courtyard.However, after Xie Qingzhao's matter, the inner courtyard end of this place was basically closed, but this time, Wei Ziyang let Li Yue'er enter his courtyard from the inner courtyard end because he didn't want others to know.At his words, Li Yue'er was very unimpressed.She will really not be afraid of others misunderstanding what between him and Wei Ziyang, but thinking about this matter she has already defiled Wei Ziyang once, if again against his will, this may really force him to be anxious in the future, to their own carelessness, is also not good.Therefore, Li Yue'er took a maid and came to Wei Ziyang's residence silently.One side of the inner courtyard likewise had a courtyard gate, a courtyard, and a compartment, and the matron guarding the gate retreated to the side after inviting Li Yue'er in.L
"Originally, I thought so, but now I don't!" Wei Yuewu shook her head extremely naturally."Then what are you going to do?" Yan Huaijing looked sideways at Wei Yuewu with interest, in an excellent mood, and although Wei Yuewu's words were unfinished, he knew that this was a concern for himself.Although Yan Huaijing didn't really care about blackmailing the Li family with this, he was very pleased with Wei Yuemei's heart, his face was smiling and his handsome eyes couldn't help but brim for a few minutes."Just wait and see!" Wei Yuewu said rather mysteriously.The two of them strolled around the courtyard for a little while before heading towards the main gate, the carriage of the Duke of Yan's residence was parked at the entrance, and the two of them got into the carriage and slowly headed towards the Duke of Yan's residence.Wei Yuewu's body had not yet recovered, sitting in the carriage leaning against Yan Huai Jing, thinking about Wei Zi Yang, she
Wei Ziyang's gaze fell on Wei Yueyue Dance's face.Still with a bit of childish face, even if the face is pale but still exquisite beauty of the face, the girl in front of me, if she grows up some more, and then grow some more, it would be how the city.The pair of black and white clear surplus water eyes, but also let a person know at a glance that this is a bit of ice smart girl, the corner of the lips smile faint, but fresh and natural, looking at their eyes are also extremely serious.Almost instantly, Wei Ziyang nodded, "Sixth sister, I believe you.""If you believe me, go and ask the second aunt the reason first, when you ask clearly, you come to Yan Guo Gongfu, tell me the reason of the matter, and then decide on the next step, never go to ask the emperor for a decree first, and then cause lifelong regrets." Wei Yuewu smiled."Good! I'll ask clearly to come to you!" Wei Ziyang nodded his head calmly, feeling quite ashamed of himself, he was also
"What is it?" Wei Yue Ming was sensitive to the fact that there was something in those words."Also ... not, what a big deal!" Wei Ziyang's smile was somewhat bitter.Yan Huaijing looked at him, this time he didn't say anything, but just turned to the side with leisurely footsteps, "I'm going to take a look at your family's garden, I haven't seen it for a few days now, and looking at it it seems to have picked up some color."Said languidly turned the road.Wei Yuewu knows that Yan Huai Jing is letting himself and Wei Zi Yang talk, deliberately avoided, he must know what, may be this originally he did not want to talk to himself, but this will be big brother mentioned, but also did not force to not let himself hear.And he even took the initiative to avoid it, so it seems that not only is this not a small matter, but it also concerns the Marquis of Huayang.It had only been a few days, she didn't think anything major would happen.However, l
If this had been asked by Wei Yuewu before, Wei Lovin would have inevitably rejected it out of hand, but at this moment, he couldn't say such words.Looking at Wei Yuewu's watery eyes that were clouded with some hooded air, she nodded her head almost with difficulty."Yes!"Guessing was one thing, admitting it was another, seeing Wei Luo this head nodded heavily, Wei Yuewu took a step back almost in a panic, her body leaning tightly against the tree trunk behind her, using it to stabilize her shaky form."Father ... why?" Settling down, Wei Yuewu clenched her fists and bit her lip as she asked."There are some things that are also forced upon me, if it is possible, I am also willing to accompany your mother, our family of four is simple, even if it is just an ordinary person, I may also let your mother live a good life, rather than this scenario at the moment." Wei Lovin raised his eyes and looked seriously at Wei Yuewu and said."Dancer, there ar
"What ... heir?" Wei Luo Wen's heart pounded furiously, and the scar on his face twisted for a moment before he slowly calmed down."Father, where is the elder brother born to mother?" Wei Yuewu's eyes forced a tight look at Wei Lovin, her face heavy and sad, "Father, why did you snatch away the elder brother that mother gave birth to? Why did you make Mother so terrified? Does father know how painful it should be for a woman to have her child snatched away from her, and how she can survive after experiencing such heart-thirsty pain!""I ..." Wei Lovin opened his mouth, but realized that he couldn't actually say a word in front of his childish daughter."Father, no reason of any kind is sufficient to justify taking a child from a mother who has only just given birth to it!"The corner of Wei Yuewu's eyes couldn't help but consciously mist up, "I heard that I was born in less than a month, and at that time father was coincidentally absent, in the maternity war
Several doctors checked Wei Yuewu's pulse in turn and then retreated outside, Wei Luo looked at Yan Huai Jing, stood up and followed him outside.He was really uneasy about Wei Yuewu's body, so he purposely followed him out."I'll go out for a walk as well!" Wei Yuewu stood up and said to Wei Ziyang, who was accompanying Yan Huaijing on the side."Do you want me to walk with you?" Yan Huaijing asked as he reclined on a chair to the side."No need, I'll just take a casual look!" Wei Yuewu smiled and shook her head."Good!" Yan Huaijing nodded with a smile.Wei Yuewu walked out of the door of the house, saw that there was no one outside, Wei Lovin's boy stood at the door of the right room, there was a faint sound coming from the door, it should be over there talking about his own condition, then slowly walked outside, Jin Ling followed closely behind.Small stone road hidden in the path, the weather warmed up in the past few days, it seems tha
"What kind of key is this?" Wei Yuewu asked in surprise, the key was not big but extremely delicate."It's the world son's private storehouse, the day after tomorrow is the day of return is the day of return, the world son let the master himself go to pick out the things for the return." Golden bell laughed and explained.It is the rule to return to the door three days after the wedding, and of course the one who is the daughter should bring some gifts to the door.Returning to the door in three days? Wei Yuewu eyes flashed a trace of coldness, some things, she must face first father asked clearly ...The following days were quite calm, and I don't know if it was because Yan Huaijing disposed of the two courtesans sent by the Empress without mercy, but there was actually no more action in the palace.The day of the return is here.Early in the morning, Wei Ziyang came to invite, this original is also the rule, by their own mother's family brother
