... After Wei Changying had straightened out her thinking, the members of the Shen Family arrived the next day.
She hadn't eaten anything and was utterly dissipated for two days, but she had only one day to recover. Although she was young and the Wei Family was wealthy, which could provide her any tonic, she couldn't recover totally within only one day. This day, she woke up and took a bath in the morning. After that, she sat in front of the dresser, finding that her face was flushed because of the heat of the water. However, she was still too pale compared to what she used to be.
She was like a pink rose, beautiful but not bright, looking haggard and delicate.
Mrs. He sighed secretly and asked, "What about powdering some blusher?"
"Did my grandmother say that I have to show up?" Wei Changying asked after she had stared at herself in the mirror for a while.
The situation was different from the last time when the Shen F
This time was the same as the last time when Wei Changying greeted the members of the Shen Family, except for the messenger had changed from Shuangli into Shuangzhu, and Song Zaitian was not at the scene.The rear hall was just as what it was like last time, even the seats of Wei Huan, Old Madam Song, and the Count Xiangning Shen Zhou were not changed.Wei Changying was still as elegant as she used to be, but her pace was different from the last time.... She walked slower but heavier, which seemed to be deliberate. It was not only because she had not totally recovered, but also because she was trying to cover up her nervous feelings for meeting the members of the Shen Family under such a situation, as well as her excitement and expectation.Of course, she felt anxious, mostly.After Wei Changying had made courtesies to the people in the hall, Old Madam Song directly asked Wei Changying to stand beside her, for she didn't need to in
The autumn rain flowed down Shen Cangfeng's cheeks and dripped from the chin and turned the light red robes to dark red. In the rain curtain, the garden was bleak, yet the young man standing in the rain was full of vitality. Although his body was covered with muddy water, he still looked vigorous and without any dispirited.Shen Cangfeng's smiled slightly with his thin lips. He smiled sincerely and then saluted, "My uncle forgot something important, so my father specially ordered me to chase him down to deliver it."The important thing?Old Madam Song was stunned for a while and said, "What is the important thing?" At this point, looking at Shen Cangfeng, whose sleeves were dripping because of the autumn rain, the old madam finally came to her senses and hurriedly changed her facial expressions and shouted, "Come on to the porch to talk! You kid! Why are you in such a hurry to send something here? If this is sent by others, it will not matter.
"Absurd! This is ridiculous! It's totally ridiculous!" If Shen Cangfeng only openly called himself as the grandson-in-law of the Wei Family, it would not be irreparable. After all, Shen Xuan was in charge of his marriage. At the worst, it would offend the Wei Family more. Eventually, he would have to offend the Wei Family for breaking off a marital engagement. But the sword of "Lu Hu" was given to Wei Changying in the name of Shen Xuan. Fengzhou and the Capital were far away from each other. Even though Shen Zhou knew that Shen Cangfeng was lying, he could not prove his lies immediately. The Wei Family was not a family that could be taken lightly at will. No matter how shameless Shen Zhou was, he couldn't say anything about breaking of the marriage when it seemed that his elder brother had approved of his nephew's marriage.What's more, Shen Cangfeng arrived later than Shen Zhou. According to Shen Zhou's understanding of this nephew, even if he risked everything and con
Noticing Shen Zhou's severe inquiries, Shen Cangfeng also hid his faint smile, and said indifferently, "Uncle, don't you think that those people are actually walking all over us?"Shen Zhou frowned and said, "You mean the fact that they take advantage of Madam Wei to disgrace our family? Do you think we haven't borne the grudges? But what matters now is the victory at the New Year's Eve Feast at the palace!" He thought that Shen Cangfeng was young and impetuous, and this time his unmarried wife, who had been engaged since childhood, had lost her virginity before moving into her husband's house, and was much ridiculed. In anger, he refused to listen to others' taunt and break off his marital engagement.With a sigh, Shen Zhou also felt that his nephew was wronged. He was only a few months away from getting married. The fiancee who had been engaged since childhood was reported to have been insulted by criminals. In general, Shen Cangfeng was no doubt a genero
Taking the sword out of the bag and waving it, Wei Changying knew that it was three-feet long. As usual, it weighed three jin and twelve liang.This sword was quite expensive.The head of the sword was made from gold and cast in the shape of Ruyi Jade. As a weapon, the sword had no hollows or spikes, different from the sword decorated on the waist of the men of literature. The handle was made from ivory, wrapped in sharkskin, decorated with Luminous Pearl. The handguard was made from pure gold, engraving the scenery of the mountains and river. The scabbard was made from ebony wood, no color or decoration, embedded the ambitious name of the sword with colorful bloodstones:Lu Hu!Wei Changying recognized at a glance the bloodstones above, which resembled those on her hair clasp that was given by Madam Su. They should come from the same piece of bloodstone. Perhaps it was made from the leftover materials of her hair clasp. After all,
Wei Changying didn't care about the fact that the two cousins had stopped her. After all, even if she couldn't marry the Shen Family, she still could easily punish the two cousins who had no kinship with the grandmother with several words.Moreover, looking at the fearful looks of Wei Gaochan and Wei Changyan, she estimated that they had had a hard time these days. Even if they hadn't worried about being involved by her when accompanying her, they would have suffered for fear that she would complain to the grandmother after they had offended her.This grudge could be settled at any time. The initiative was in Wei Changying's hands, and it was not worth considering.But the Granny coming from far away, according to Shuangzhu, made her a little curious. Far away? Granny?A servant of this age was called Granny. In addition to the manager woman in the mansion, people outside were difficult to see Old Madam Song, even if he or she was also a manager
What surprised Wei Changying was that, Mrs. He, who had always been termagant and aggressive, didn't wait for her to introduce Mrs. Huang after they met, instead, Mrs. He directly greeted Mrs. Huang with surprise and delight, "Am I dreaming? Are you really Sister Huang?"Mrs. Huang winked at her with a smile, and said, "I heard that First Miss had a cough yesterday? Although she feels good now, it's better not to get in a draught."Mrs. He did not feel that Mrs. Huang had taken her power to give orders as soon as she came. On the contrary, Mrs. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, look at me. I completely forget about First Miss after seeing you, my sister!"Being surrounded by them and entering into the door, Wei Changying was puzzled. After sitting down, she invited her two grannies to sit down as well, and asked, "Just now my grandmother said that Granny He and Granny Huang knew each other. I wonder if you could tell me about it?"
Wei Changying smiled, "I didn't dare to say how gentle and considerate I was to these two cousins in the past, but I didn't think I had neglected my duty as an elder sister, let alone deliberately vexing them. However, when I was slandered and discussed, instead of confronting me in person and asking for the facts, they easily believed in others' words, and avoided me as if I had been a tiger after they heard the news... I was certainly unhappy."Mrs. Huang listened to Wei Changying's frank words, showing a deeper smile on her lips. Though she knew that Wei Changying was testing her, Wei Changying did not doubt her ability. This showed that Old Madam Song's personal introduction took effect in the end. It could be seen that First Miss trusted Old Madam Song very much. Because of Old Madam's praise for Mrs. Huang, First Miss even exempted Mrs. Huang from her examination....It was no wonder that Old Madam was so worried about this granddaughter, her lineal f
