Su Yuwu’s birthday was the day after Empress Gu was informed of the lotus-picking girls. Madam Su specially came to congratulate Su Yuwu in person, which was just an excuse because Madam Su, as an aunt, didn’t need to specially go back to her family for her niece's eighteenth birthday. The real reason was that the last time Su Pingzhan commanded his descendants to stop struggling with each other, so Madam Su kept this matter in mind after hearing Wei Changying's words. She planned to take advantage of this time to come back and explain to his father in person, lest there would be grudges in two families.
If Madam Su went back to her family, her daughters-in-law would accompany her. But it was impractical for all of them to go together, so Madam Su left Mrs. Duanmu at home and brought Mrs. Liu and Wei Changying with her. Shen Cangning, who should have followed, was locked in her room because of the deception of Eleventh Prince last time. Madam Su thought that her daughte
Su Yuwu's birthday didn't become grander because of his own aunt's presence. There was only a banquet in the third branch. People from the same generation, Mrs. Liu and Wei Changying, went over and attended the banquet together. Madam Su was still in the main room. Old Madam Deng asked the servants in the kitchen of the main room to prepare a few dishes that her daughter liked. In the afternoon, when Su Pingzhan came back, Madam Su served her parents some tea and started about the business that had brought her to her parents' home.In the room of the third branch, Madam Qian spoiled Mrs. Liu's pleasure, so Mrs. Liu seemed a bit dispirited. When Mrs. Liu wasn't looking at them, Wei Changying told Wei Zhengyin everything about seeing Gu Naizheng, sounding worried about Su Yuli.Wei Zhengyin was not surprised when she heard this and smiled, "Your future cousin by marriage is a bit unusual, but I have discussed it with your cousin. Don't worry. Although he is n
Leaving the Su mansion and returning to the Grand Preceptor's mansion, Wei Changying thought Madam Su must be tired today, so she wouldn't mention that she wanted to visit her eldest aunt Wei Shengxian to her until tomorrow. Although Madam Su looked tired and her daughters-in-law accompanied her to the backroom, she didn't ask them to leave immediately to have a rest but said, " Yi'er, you make a list of things in the bride price. Compare them with the ones you got before. If you can't remember them very well, go to the bursary and find them."Three daughters-in-law heard it suddenly and all became surprised because the fourth young master, Shen Canghui, had just married Mrs. Pei, so mentioning the bride price meant that it should be talking about the fifth young master, Shen Cangji, who was Madam Su's favorite son.But they had never heard anything about Shen Cangji looking for a wife.There was one meeting last year. That was with Wei Lingyue
When Wei Changying went back to Jintong Courtyard, Shen Cangfeng had just come back from the Su Family. The third branch of the Su Family had prepared a feast for Madam Su and her companions, who came here to celebrate Su Yuwu's birthday, but the other guests were Su Yuwu's cousins, colleagues and schoolfellows. It was improper for them to enter the rear courtyard, and they couldn't enjoy it if they were at the same table with the elders of the Su family. Therefore, the Su family prepared another feast at the front yard for these young people, so that they could have a good time.Shen Cangfeng had a strong smell of wine at this time, and his face was already blushed. He stumbled into the room and loosened his clothes as he ordered a maidservant to bring him some tea.Wei Changying told the servant to make strong tea, and then she helped Shen Cangfeng took off his robe. She frowned as she blamed, "Why did you drink so much?"Hearing this, Shen C
Mrs. Huang's opinion was unanimously approved by Mrs. He and Mrs. Wan. All three of them thought that since Mrs. Huang had a friendship with Ji Qubing, the famous doctor in the country, and had the confidence to invite him out, no matter how minor Shen Cangfeng's injury was, it's better to go and see the doctor!It's not that the Shen Family was not able to pay the consultation fee...Mrs. Wan was Shen Cangfeng's wet nurse so that she was glad to see the young madam and her entourages paid great attention to Shen Cangfeng's health. After all, it was Mrs. Huang who went to invite the doctor. If Shen Cangfeng had the chance to be consulted by a more professional doctor, why not?Mrs. He particularly agreed with this. She lost her husband at a rather young age, and even her only son later died because of illness. She knew the best the suffering of being childless and widowed. Otherwise, with her love for Wei Changying for so many years that she wo
Early the next morning, Mrs. Huang was waiting for Wei Changying to wash and dress. Shen Cangfeng didn’t know that Mrs. Huang had told Wei Changying, "You have the only husband. If there was something wrong with him, no matter what illness it was, it would be a big deal." Shen Cangfeng tried to oppose her idea in a roundabout way, tactfully suggesting that there was no need to send Mrs. Huang to disturb Ji Qubing because of the injury that he had already healed.So Mrs. Huang combed Wei Changying's hair buns and, at the same time, persuaded Shen Cangfeng with heartfelt words, such as, "Young Master, you said it was a minor injury which had healed long ago, so I did not dare to doubt you. However, you are not a doctor, are you?" "Miracle Doctor Ji doesn't live in the deep mountains, but in the capital as well. Whether it is you to visit Miracle Doctor Ji or let him come and see you in the yard, both of them are very convenient. Young Master, why don't you appreciate the
In the courtyard, the fragrance of medicine floated in the air, mixed with the smell of vegetation. Although they were mixed, the air was not unpleasant because it was natural. So people knew that the residence of a famous doctor was naturally filled with the fragrance of medicine.The courtyard didn't pave with grey bricks, with only a slightly curved path paved with pebbles to the corridor. Both sides of the path were planted with flowers and trees, and there were some common medicinal herbs in it.The trumpet creepers that saw outside covered the walls on both sides of the courtyard gate. The yellow flowers blossomed in the scorching sun with brilliant golden color. The scenery was gorgeous. Besides, trumpet creepers were medical herbs. It seemed that Ji Qubing had arranged this yard for double benefits.After passing the corridor, a round "moon-gate" sat there. Two osmanthus trees with the same height beside the door. There were no osmanthu
The people who were left behind by Ji Qubing looked at each other for a long time. Wei Changying asked Mrs. Huang in disbelief, "Granny, didn’t you say that Ji Qubing had been favored by the Wei Family?" Why did she feel that Ji Qubing actually had a grudge against the Wei Family? And it might not be an ordinary hatred.Mrs. Huang said embarrassedly, "Miracle Doctor has always had such a temper..."Seeing that Wei Changying was annoyed and her facial expression conveyed the meaning that, "you knew how he was, but you still recommended me to bring my husband here," Mrs. Huang became even more embarrassed and whispered, "I was just trying to make sure everything is fine."Originally, Shen Cangfeng had always disapproved of seeking medical advice from Ji Qubing. Now seeing that his wife had been hit hard, he turned to comfort her, "Granny Huang is right. Miracle Doctor Ji is famous for his perfect medical skills in the Capital, but he is…short-tem
“He marries you? In your dreams!” said Wei Changying, shoving Duanmu Xinmiao against the pole in the corridor. If a doctor often dealt with medicine, a smell of medicine would be around him or her. The Eighth Miss of Duanmu Family perhaps stayed in the yard which was filled with the smell of medicine for a long time, so this strong smell around her made Wei Changying feel a little uncomfortable when she walked closer to her. After taking a deep breath, Wei Changying got used to this smell. She slowly pat Duanmu Xinmiao’s face with her hand. However, Duanmu Xinmiao was exposed to the sun to select the medicine and then fought with Wei Changying, so her face was covered with sweat. Wei Changying dried her hand with the upper shirt of Duanmu Xinmiao in disgust. She said with a cold smile, “How dare you threaten me? I’m Shen Cangfeng’s wife, so how could you be in a higher status than me? At most, you would be a concubine!” “If I were Shen Cangfeng’s concubin
