Wanyin held an oil-paper umbrella and silently walked to the door of the courtyard where Dieyu lived, the rain kept dripping along the eaves of the umbrella, and there was constantly some biting cold wind whistling by her, she took the cloak on her body, and a face with delicate light makeup looked noble and beautiful.
Dieyu is opening the door of the house, holding a small carved stove, bored to look at the cold autumn rain that keeps falling, the wind and rain are heavy, but there is no intention to go out, the wolf early in the morning has already sent Wang Dong to report, today to go to the early court to discuss state affairs with the emperor does not know when to come back.
"Miss Dieyu is here alone in a daze" With a beautiful female voice in her ears, a slender figure appeared at the door, Dieyu Dingqing saw that Wanyin was standing at the door with an oil-paper umbrella, wearing a plain velvet embroidered cloak, her face was delicate and beautiful, which was very different from the Qingli when she met for the first time, which made Dieyu slightly surprised.
"It's so cold and it's raining, Miss Wanyin, come in quickly" Dieyu hurriedly welcomed the person in from the rain, and handed the hot carved stove that was burning in her hand to her cold hand.
"Miss Dieyu is too polite" Wanyin said gratefully, the mother-in-law behind her had already put away the oil-paper umbrella, and lowered her head and said, "Girl, then I will wait for you outside", Dieyu glanced at the taciturn mother-in-law dressed in ayaluo, but she was sure that this mother-in-law must be a right-hand man who is very good at observing words and feelings.
"Okay, Mama Li, you just wait outside the door" Wanyin casually said to the mama behind her, then turned around and stepped into the room, the contact with the mama was natural and intimate, and it could be seen that she trusted her very much.
Wanyin entered the room and sat down, Dieyu had already called Dong'er to bring two cups of hot tea, so she picked up the tea and took a few sips in a very noble posture, before she said, "Speaking of age, I am eighteen years old this year, I don't know what the age of Dieyu girl is?" You and I are good sisters."
Hearing this, Dieyu smiled a little shyly in a pair of eyes before she spoke, "I am sixteen years old this year, two years younger than my sister."
"Sixteen? That's six years younger than my cousin" Wanyin frowned thoughtfully, looking a little distressed, Dieyu heard this but didn't think so, with the real age of the black wolf, I'm afraid that he is more than a few hundred years younger than him.
"My cousin said you are good friends, so how did you meet?" Wanyin asked quietly, her beautiful eyes looked at Dieyu who was dressed in plain clothes, her face was obviously a little disdainful, in her opinion, the identity of her cousin and this merchant woman was so different, she couldn't figure out what kind of wrist this Dieyu used to hook up with the Nine Princes, who had always been noble and cold.
Dieyu was a little noncommittal, she could see that this Wanyin was obviously coming to demonstrate and at the same time turning a corner to sarcastically mock her, why bother, she really didn't want to play tricks with this woman openly and secretly, but thinking of the bet with the wolf yesterday, she still had to bite the bullet.
"I met him only because I saved his life when his life was in danger, and my family was not rich, so he brought me to live in this mansion for a long time, and there is no other relationship you think, please don't misunderstand" Dieyu knows that if this woman wants to enter the palace sincerely to seek rights and interests for the Nine Princes' Mansion, it is also very important to take care of herself, and at the moment she can't destroy her simple admiration and love for the Nine Princes.
"You mean you saved my cousin's life?" Wanyin put down the tea cup in her hand, and glanced at Dieyu quietly with a pair of beautiful eyes, with a little doubt in her eyes, although this woman was tall, she was very thin, not like she could save people.
"Yes, he only asked me to stay in this mansion out of kindness, and he didn't have any other thoughts" Dieyu was talking nonsense seriously, and she didn't know how the wolf would feel if she was present to hear this, but at the moment she didn't want to attract the other party's jealousy, just kidding, now that she is alone in the house, and the other party has two strong mothers-in-law, it is still important to cherish her life.
"Then why did he put you in the best courtyard in this location?" Wanyin still didn't give up, but Dieyu only felt that she wanted to vomit blood, so she was still imprisoned in a golden cage before, why didn't this eldest lady appear at that time, she didn't appear sooner or later, but now she appears.
"I guess it's out of hospitality" Dieyu looked serious again, she had tried her best to convince herself not to think about what the wolf would think, but to play a serious trick.
"I see, that's because I misunderstood Sister Dieyu" Wanyin held the stove in her hand, lowered her head slightly and said, but her beautiful eyes, which were very delicate in makeup, did not have a trace of real guilt.
"Sister, your clothes are too plain, yesterday's clothes were better, and today's clothes are too bad, why don't I give my sister a few clothes?" Wanyin silently walked to Dieyu's side, and straightened the half-used white hair removal on her body, with a little silent disgust in her eyes.
"Who knew that the sky would suddenly change, and the cold person was cold in his bones, and he didn't have time to prepare, so he just wore one casually" Dieyu smiled and said, but she despised the wolf in her heart, and turned herself around for no reason, so that she didn't have any clothes to wear, and this half-old white coat was still the wolf told Dong'er to find it from her closet overnight.
"The temperature plummets, my sister still has to pay attention to the cold" Wanyin seemed to tell her very intimately, but there was a hint of happiness in her heart, it seems that this woman is really not very popular with her cousin, otherwise how could she live in this house for so long without even a decent dress, so shabby, it really can't be compared with herself.
Dieyu nodded hurriedly and said, "Thank you Sister Wanyin for your concern, I will definitely take good care of myself"
Wanyin looked at the mansion where Dieyu lived again, the decoration of this mansion was indeed not luxurious enough, it seemed to be incompatible with the other courtyards in this palace, only a few decorative things were roughly, except for the bed was a good pineapple carved wooden bed, the others were nothing special, and they were not even as good as the room where they lived.
"Miss Dieyu is the daughter of a merchant, and her family is not very wealthy, so I'm afraid I haven't seen such a magnificent imperial compound as the Nine Princes' Mansion" Wanyin turned her head, but said such a sentence to Dieyu, with a fierce light in her eyes.
