The carriage had already long been waiting at the entrance of the mansion. Huamo helped Wei Yuewu into the carriage and took a cushion so that Wei Yuewu could lean on it.
The lad servant sent by Wei Luowen sat with Old Li on the shafts of the carriage.
The carriage moved slowly and steadily. When they got on the carriage just now, Old Li saw that Wei Yuewu was not in a good condition, so he deliberately drove slowly.
"Miss, are you really okay?" Inside the carriage, although Huamo had placed a few soft cushions beside Wei Yuewu, she was still worried.
"I'm fine!" Wei Yuewu shook her head and closed her eyes to rest. "Ask the carriage to pass through the road we came from!"
Jin Ling should be waiting over there at this time!
"Yes, Miss. When I got in the carriage just now, I had already instructed Old Li. He will pass through there later. Miss, you should rest first. When Sister Jin Ling comes up, I
The account books were soon brought over. Each shop had six books, and they were placed on the dock."Everyone, take a look. The account books here clearly state whether our two shops gain profit or his shop gains profit. Let's see who exactly these goods should be given to!"One of the Second Shopkeepers picked up an account book in his hand, flipped through it, and shouted to the people around him.At this time, he found that after Shopkeeper Liu looked at his own account book, his momentum was much smaller, and he even had a faint look of wanting to retreat, but how could he be allowed to escape unscathed at this time?Thinking of Shopkeeper Liu's arrogant appearance just now, this Second Shopkeeper gritted his teeth in anger.Since that was the case, then Shopkeeper Liu shouldn't blame him for being on the offensive.Some passers-by who were nosy really went over and flipped through the account
"Lord Marquis, it's... it's..." The two shop assistants didn't expect that Wei Luowen would come out to the parking lot at this time. They hurriedly knelt and saluted."Where are your Shopkeepers?" Wei Luowen asked coldly."They are reporting the accounts in the mansion!" One of the shop assistants quickly said."Send someone to call them over!" Wei Luowen instructed a lad servant in a low voice."Father!" At this time, Wei Yuewu had already held Huamo's hand and walked down the carriage. She said softly, "It's about Mother's shops. Can you call the Shopkeepers over? I want to ask them about it.""Call the two Shopkeepers to the study. I have something to ask them!" Wei Luowen pondered for a moment and agreed. He had originally planned to give Rui'er's dowry to Yuewu. Since Yuewu was interested, then he would let her ask. In the future, these were all her own dowry. She had to deal with them anyway.
Without a doubt, those two shop assistants had been brought here before, but they had been waiting outside the house."Go and bring them in!" Wei Luowen ordered after nodding.At once, the lad servant ran out and brought the shop assistants in. After the shopkeepers saw Wei Yuewu's childlike yet stern face, they inexplicably felt terrible, and their chubby faces began to sweat uncontrollably."Were you two fighting at the dock?" Wei Yuewu spoke while looking at the shop assistants coldly."Y-Yes!" Although the shop assistants saw the shopkeepers, it wasn't a proper time to talk. They quickly answered Wei Yuewu after hearing her question."Was it because of the injustice in the distribution of goods? This issue has even been reported to the government and alerted the Mayor of the capital city!" She asked again."Y-Yes!" The shop assistants were frightened by the thick tension in the room and stuttere
"You had no choice? When do you ever lack a choice in the things you do?" Due to Wei Yuewu's previous words, Wei Luowen did not buy Concubine Dong's explanation and retaliated sternly.Although his face still looked calm, everyone familiar with him knew that he was in a state of rage."You treated Yuewu as your biological daughter and even made new clothes for her, but you couldn't make one more for Yuejiao in time and casually asked someone else to make one instead. It turned out that this was all just for show."Some things would have gone unnoticed without thinking much, but the more Wei Luowen thought about them, the odder things were. At this time, he also remembered that before Concubine Dong entered the capital, she repeatedly said she would definitely treat Wei Yuewu well and purposely made new clothes for her. Undoubtedly, he also thought of the dispute at the city gate."Lord Marquis, I really had no choice. I-If i
"What is it?" Wei Luowen asked coldly."I want to meet Lord Tu to confirm something." At this point, Concubine Dong could no longer wait. She could not let Wei Luowen marry Ninth Miss Tu."Tu Jiulin?" Wei Luowen thought for a moment and realized that the Lord Tu Concubine Dong mentioned was his best friend, Tu Jiulin."Yes. I-I have a few questions for Lord Tu. It's about his family!" Concubine Dong blurted."His family... Have you found his sister?" Wei Luowen frowned and suddenly understood the situation. Although he was dissatisfied with Concubine Dong's untimely words, he still asked concernedly.After all, this was something his close friend cared about. If there was any news, Wei Luowen should notify him early."I don't know for sure, but I would like to ask you, Lord Marquis, to invite Lord Tu to meet with me." Concubine Dong did not dare to speak of the details in front of Wei Yuewu and only
"Sixth Young Lady, what a flawless move. Everyone has misjudged you!" Concubine Dong gritted her teeth as she looked at Wei Yuewu.They were talking at a bend in the path, and no one was around. Even if someone came over, they could be seen from afar."What are you talking about?" Wei Yuewu blinked her eyes and asked indifferently."Sixth Young Lady, there is no one else here. You don't need to put on an act anymore. I'm afraid that Madam Dowager has fallen for your tricks too!" Concubine Dong sneered, and her eyes were almost burning.It wasn't just about the shops. Thinking about how Wei Yuewu had instigated Lord Marquis to marry a noble lady of an aristocratic family, she couldn't take it anymore. Therefore, she specially waited at the courtyard entrance for Wei Yuewu to come out."Concubine Dong, I heard that my mother was supposed to have a smooth pregnancy back then, but you and Second Aunt made a ruckus a
Madam Dowager nodded. She also had something to tell Wei Luowen at this time. She told Wei Qiuju to go back first. Then she took Wei Yuejiao with her to Wei Luowen's study.When Wei Luowen heard that Madam Dowager was back, he hurriedly went to the entrance of the courtyard to receive her."Kneel!" Madam Dowager suddenly turned to scold Wei Yuejiao. Wei Yuejiao was stunned and did not react. She looked at Madam Dowager and said with grievance, "Grandmother!""I will speak to your father in a moment about what you have done today," Madam Dowager said harshly. "Kneel down!"Wei Yuejiao took a pitiful glance at Wei Luowen. When she saw that Wei Luowen showed an expressionless face and did not even look at her, her eyes could not help but turn red. She fell to her knees with a thud. Tears immediately fell from her eyes. She cried out sorrowfully, "Father!""Mother, please come in and sit." Wei Luowen only looked at
An invitation card from Yan Huaijing?Wei Yuewu was surprised as she received it. After looking at the content of the invitation card, she was stunned for a moment. As an heir-apparent, Yan Huaijing was different from other people who would either host a flower-viewing party or a lantern-viewing party. He was actually inviting her to a tree-viewing party!What was so nice about viewing trees?Then, she suddenly recalled the tall trees she saw in the palace that day. Yan Huaijing claimed that those were the trees from the State of Yan. Could it be that he wanted to invite everyone to view those trees?However, the Duke of Yan State Mansion did not have a mistress, and Jing Wenyan was the person who signed the invitation card, saying that given the friendship between the two families, Yan Huaijing wanted her to entertain his guests in the inner courtyard on his behalf. Moreover, Jing Wenyan was actually asked to assist Yan Hua
