The next day, Wei Changying got up a little earlier intentionally and waited for a moment at the main room before she was summoned into the room. Madam Su was very satisfied with her rectified attitude, so she kindly waived her greeting and said, "You came too early today. You arrived here before I have tidied up everything."
Wei Changying said with a smile: "I am very ashamed of getting up late and asking Mother to wait for me yesterday. Therefore, I think that if I come earlier today, I may be able to go in and serve Mother to freshen up and atone for my sins! It's just that I am too stupid to recommend myself to do this. Thus, I dare not reveal my thoughts until Mother has tidied up now."
Madam Su laughed when she heard this and said, "You wanted to come in but you didn't say anything. Weren't you waiting on the porch in vain?" Because she saw that Wei Changying had brought some strong servants behind her who seemed to be carrying the box cages, she was
The next day, Wei Changying went to Madam Su and was allowed to visit Wei Shengxian immediately. And Madam Su also prepared a four-colored gift to let Wei Changying bring along with her.Therefore, Wei Changying asked Shen Ju, who sent Ge Shun home last time, to prepare the carriage to head out home.The house bought by Wei Shengxian was located south of town, and it was not far away from the Shen Family's mansion. This was an area inhabited by rich families, and big and beautiful houses filled the area. The street was spacious and was cleaned neatly. However, there were few pedestrians on the street and the horses and carriages on the street were all not from ordinary people.Seeing this, Wei Changying secretly nodded. The second aunt Wei Zhengyin was right. This eldest aunt Wei Shengxian might not be strong enough to speak in front of her people because she has no sons, but she is quite rich. Otherwise, she would not be able to afford a nearb
Although Wei Shengxian extremely admired the lineal mother, Old Madam Song, she was a mother herself after all. After asking about Old Madam Song for the whole morning, it was already lunchtime. Wei Shengxian was pulled at her sleeve by the granny behind her and she finally remembered what she ought to do. Therefore, she said to her two daughters, "Go to the kitchen and pay attention. Don't let them slack off."Seeing that Song Xiyue and Song Ruxuan were sent away, Wei Changying knew that her eldest aunt was going to get to the point. As expected, Wei Shengxian said embarrassedly, "Changying, you just married to the capital and you have to take care of your husband. I shouldn't have troubled you anymore...""What are you talking about, eldest aunt? You're my aunt and we are from the same family. Besides, you are my elder. If you need me, just tell me without hesitation. As long as I can make it, I will absolutely do it." Wei Changying smiled and interrupted
Though the two of them were the only people in the room, Shen Cangfeng still lowered his voice, almost touched his wife's ear and said, "The Honored Consort and the Empress don't get along at all. Xiangzhi is favored by the Honored Consort and he can't get out of it now. If we let our cousin marry Xiangzhi and the Honored Consort’s plan failed, she would probably be punished as well. Why does she have to suffer that?"Wei Changying was surprised when she heard this, asking, "Why do you think the Honored Consort will lose?" She wasn't just worrying about Deng Zongqi. She knew that Song Zaishui had united with the Deng Family to break off the engagement and the Wei Family had helped as well. Although it didn't mean that the Song Family and the Wei Family were on Honored Consort Deng's side, they would support the Honored Consort more.Especially, when Song Zaishui's seemingly reasonable withdrawal the marriage, she had more or less offended the Empress and th
Before Madam Su drew up the list of the unmarried young masters of the right age in the families of the capital, Duanmu Xinmiao visited first.Facing the arrival of the miraculous doctor's student, everyone in the Grand Preceptor Mansion was very surprised. Mrs. Duanmu, the second young madam, was originally checking her daughters' schoolwork. After hearing the news, she hurriedly cleaned up and changed her clothes, and rushed to Madam Su. Unexpectedly, before she stepped onto the corridor, she heard Madam Su said surprisingly, "Eighth Miss come to find Changying?"When Mrs. Duanmu heard it outside the door, she immediately slowed down and looked suspicious. She motioned to the maidservants at the door not to report her arrival and held her breath to listen attentively...She heard the brittle voice of Duanmu Xinmiao from the room. Duanmu Xinmiao replied, "Yes, my lady. Last time my lady's son accompanied the daughter-in-law to go to the master
In fact, Mrs. Duanmu's intentions were very clear to everyone here, but they said nothing. Even Wei Changying was angry because Mrs. Duanmu had asked her to apologize to Duanmu Xinmiao. She didn't argue with Mrs. Duanmu. Now Duanmu Xinmiao asked so bluntly that everyone was very embarrassed.Mrs. Duanmu was especially embarrassed. Seeing Madam Su's face turning solemn because she was dissatisfied with Mrs. Duanmu's repeated instigation, Mrs. Duanmu blushed, pinched the veil, and said haltingly with a bitter smile, "Miao'er, you misunderstood. I was playing a joke with the third sister-in-law, and I didn't expect that she would take it seriously."She sneered to Wei Changying, "Third sister-in-law, I don't really mean it. How can you take it seriously? You have scared Miao'er now."Wei Changying's second sister-in-law had taken Wei Changying's Ice Soul Incense only two days ago; now, she instigated again. When she failed and humiliated Duanmu Xi
The crowd was quickly parted by Zhu Shi. She shouted, “Young Madam is here. Please make way to let her come into the room and see what has happened.”Zhu Shi and Wei Changying were both very anxious. However, Shen Ju was not familiar with Jiang Zheng but was still poised. He hurriedly stopped them, “Young Madam, Guard Jiang's robe has been untied, so you had better not enter the room.”Wei Changying took a breath. When she was about to answer him, Duanmu Xinmiao squeezed over, pulled up her sleeves and asked, “Why did he lose so much blood? What kind of injury he has?”Shen Ju didn’t recognize Duanmu Xinmiao, but he knew that she was an unmarried young lady of an eminent family, according to her clothes and hairdo. She rolled up her sleeves in front of many servants, especially the male ones, and even planned to rush into the room. Shen Ju who tried to stop her and stammered, “This, this young lady...”“Shut up! Answer my question!
The two were quarreling, and they were about to fight with each other. Fortunately, Zhu Shi came over and reported to them, "Zhu Lei had already knitted the ribs for Guard Jiang, and now he wanted to ask the Eighth Miss of the Duanmu Family to come and have a look."Wei Changying stared at Duanmu Xinmiao, Duanmu Xinmiao snorted and said, "Why are you staring at me now? Isn't the guard okay now?""..." Wei Changying bit her lip and said, "If Uncle Jiang becomes better, I will apologize to you, but..."When Duanmu Xinmiao heard it, she changed her face and burst into laughter in an instant. Then she said kindly, "Apologize? How embarrassing it would be! In terms of age, I should call you elder sister!! You could just help me collect some more pieces of good jade!"Wei Changying held her forehead and began to talk after a while, "If Uncle Jiang can be cured, I will give you a few pieces!"If the best jade was given to Dua
After wearily seeing Duanmu Xinmiao off, Wei Changying realized that she was soaked to the skin, but she was still in the cool room. If she had been outside, she would have had to change her clothes several times."This Duanmu Xinmiao is really annoying!" Returning to the inner room from seeing the guest off, Wei Changying lay down on her soft bed, saying, "But luckily, she was here today.""I think the Eighth Miss devotes herself to medicine!" Mrs. Huang saw the sweat all over her forehead, she then took a round silk fan, stood by the bed, and slowly fanned her, smiling.On hearing this, Wei Changying agreed. Duanmu Xinmiao clearly didn't behave the way everyone thought. On the surface, perhaps she had grown up with gentlefolk and had received a good education since she was young, so she hadn't lost her ladylike manners. In the capital, everybody knew that Ji Qubing was erratic and difficult to please. When it came to his disciple Duanmu Xinmi
