In the brightly lit main courtyard, Ziyuan held a thick satin cloak in his hand and draped it over the shoulders of his wife Cui, who was facing the moonrise, and said, "The wind is cold at night, if Madame feels cold, why don't you go back to the house to rest."

"It's fine." Cui Shi smiled.

Cui Shi is only twenty-three or four years old, with a good face, combed a lily bun, two phoenix wings inlaid with ruby red and blonde hairpins on his head, a long beaded tassel falling from the phoenix's mouth, and three silk peony flowers side by side on the sideburns, which are lined with ruddy complexion and luxurious temperament.

"Madam, today I heard those subordinates secretly talking, saying that the eldest lady is arrogant and rude, and you are all wronged Madame!" Aster is in a very good mood and quite colorful.

Cui Shi pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "In the past few years, I have been low and small, and in front of her, I have never said a word, and people just don't say it, and they should have a scale in their hearts." Today she has transgressed, a child, good at talking about the elders, then Cai's is unreasonable, she forcibly returned to protect, I don't mention this matter to the master, I also have people who can't look past to tell the lord to know, the lord knows that I am benevolent, and I have suffered a great grievance, so I should be treated well, and the child in my womb. ”

"What Madame said is that the eldest lady has always been above the top, arrogant and untamed, and the lord always spoils her, this time, the lord should also understand who is good and who is bad."

"That floating red, can you dispose of it properly?"

"Madame rest assured, she has been killed, and the slave and maid saw them send the body out of the house with their own eyes, and when someone asked about it, they said that they were afraid of the crime and judged themselves, and no one could find out about us."

Cui Shi nodded in satisfaction and said no more.

When Wei Dongkang returned home, it was three days later. When he heard that the stewards had reported the matter, he strode into the main courtyard. Ignoring the maids who saluted and asked for peace, he pushed open the door by himself, and Ziyuan inside opened the curtain with a smile, and said, "I heard that the master returned, and the lady personally arranged the wine and food, and then changed her clothes and was waiting for the master." ”

Wei Dongkang walked into the inner room, and saw that the table was full of his favorite food and wine, and his steproom, his wife Cui, who was twenty years younger than him, was smiling like a flower, stroking her stomach, with a clear spring in her eyes, and Yingying looked at him.

Wei Dongkang stepped forward and hugged his wife into his arms, and said softly: "Mrs. Hard! Madame has been wronged! ”

Wei Yan came out of his father's study, and his father's words still echoed in his ears: "My father is about to take charge of the household department, and many people will come to congratulate me these days, you help your mother to arrange everything at home." Your mother is pregnant with Liujia, she is not a few years older than you, she is not thoughtful, you take care of it, don't sweep her face in front of people, she is the mother of the Wei Mansion after all......"

The Mother of the Guard, the Mother of the House...... It's only been a few years, and my father has forgotten about my mother...... The newcomer is in his arms, and the mountain alliance and sea oath that he once made with the old man should have been forgotten all the time!

The corners of Wei Yan's mouth pulled out a very mocking smile. Walking through the corridor, but not seeing his maidservant Ruyue, a figure flashed from the door of the moon cave, slowly revealing half of his face.

"Wei Jiang, it's you."

Wei Yan took a step forward, but Wei Jiang took a step back, bowed his head and said, "My aunt said, thank you." ”

This sister has always been a twisted character, never willing to admit defeat and admit mistakes, Wei Yan herself is also a cold and high-minded person, the two can't say a few words on weekdays, and the relationship is relatively sparse, come to her to thank her, for Wei Jiang, it is an extremely difficult and embarrassing thing, it seems that Ruyue asked Wei Jiang to deliberately branch out.

"No thanks. I do this, not for her. Wei Yan replied, raising his eyes to see Wei Jiang embarrassed and annoyed, and looking uncomfortable, he couldn't help but smile, and his voice was softer, "Wei Jiang, if you want, you can come to me at any time to read and play ......the piano together."

"No need!" Wei Jiangdeng was annoyed, "You are a talented woman, you can do anything, I'm just a rotten wood, where can I be with you?" Wei Jiang stopped, turned around and left.

Wei Yan stretched out his hand to hold her, where could he hold it? Seeing her go away with a negative anger, her heart shrank inexplicably, and she felt a slight pain.

At that time, she was still young, and she and Wei Jiang were tired of being together all day, studying together, and playing the piano together. The two are only one year apart, and the enlightenment is at the same time. But gradually, the high and the low will be separated, Wei Yan is like a god in the piano skills, and after listening to the music once, he can immediately play it with a good note. At that time, she was young and conceited, and she once said: "Wei Jiang, why can't you even play a complete tune?" You're learning too slowly, I can't wait for you! ”

I can't wait for you anymore!

This sentence deeply hurt Wei Jiang.

Once, the father called the two sisters to the study for examination, and the father reprimanded Wei Jiang in disappointment: "I am also the daughter of Wei Dongkang, why is your sister a genius and unparalleled in skills, but you are as stupid as a pig and unbearable?" That's it, I'm confused, a girl raised by a slave, I have such hope, it's my mistake! ”

Since then, Wei Jiang has never played the piano with Wei Yan again, and he no longer talks together as before.

Wei Jiang returned to Aunt Cai and said a dull word. Aunt Cai persuaded her: "Silly child, don't be angry with your sister, although she looks indifferent, she is still good to our mother and daughter." ”

"Good what? If it weren't for your mother, you sacrificed your life to protect her, where would she be alive now? At that time, I was three years old, but my mother didn't even have a name, if it weren't for my mother to take care of her, my mother and I would still have to live in a crowded room, listening to the insults and shameful laughter of those lowly slaves! Mother, have you forgotten those days? Wei Jiang's hands were clenched into fists, and his knuckles turned white.

Aunt Cai slowly swiped her hand away and said with a smile: "That was your father's decision, I can't blame her." I was her mother's maidservant, and one night your father was drunk and mistaken for someone, and then she had you, and her mother refused to forgive me, and your father was ashamed of me, but he took pity on you, a beautiful lady, but was born by the stove. She had chickenpox, her mother was sick, and no one was willing to take the risk to take care of her, so I went. Not for her, I'm for you! I'm going to gamble on a future for my daughter. Happily, I made the right bet, and from now on, I will have good food and clothing, and most importantly, you will be able to recognize your ancestors and become the daughter recognized by your father. ”

"I'm not rare. Mother, I'm not rare at all. Wei Jiang threw himself into his mother's arms, shouting in his heart, why did he give birth to me in the Wei family?

The Wei family already has a talented and beautiful person, who is invincible, and everyone is vying to curry favor with the eldest lady Wei Yan! Why should there be me, why should there be a stupid, incompetent, and lowly person like me to be her foil?

In the past few days, Wei Dongkang has been busy ushering in the send-off, and often returns late.

On the one hand, the Cui family is in charge of the family council, and on the other hand, he deals with the official wives who come to congratulate him. Her fetal gas was not smooth, and she poured the babysittive medicine into her stomach at a daily price. The banquet for several days made Cui's anxious and miserable.

Wei Yan got a new book of remnants, and threw himself on it without sleep or food.

Cui Shi couldn't, so he invited Cui Ningjuan and Wei Jiang to help deal with everything.

Cui Ningjuan was originally going back to Cui Mansion in Jingzhou, she and her aunt Cui Mengchan were only seven years old, and they grew up together since childhood, and their relationship was very good. After Cui's pregnancy, she carried Aunt Ping to serve Wei Dongkang, and in her spare time, she missed Cui Ningjuan, who was named an aunt and nephew and a sister at home, and there were only two young ladies in Wei Mansion who did not have a young master, so there was no need to shy away, so she took Cui Ningjuan to live and accompany her.

The new head of the Wei Mansion is the head of the household department, everything is complicated, Cui's is pregnant, for fear of something going wrong, he refuses to let Cui Ningjuan go back.

On this day, Cui Ningjuan and Wei Jiang were in the same place with Cui's family, counting the warehouse. The next person came to report, and Cui's cousin came to visit.

Cui's was overjoyed and rushed in.

A kind middle-aged woman walked in with a few grandmothers, and Cui stepped forward to salute and called, "Sister! ”

Cui's eldest sister and Cui's difference is fifteen years old, and not long after Cui's birth, the eldest sister married in Kyoto, and the relationship was not deep. But this big Cui family is extremely heavy on a few younger siblings of his mother's family. She married the imperial merchant Pei's family as a wife, her family was rich, she was generous, and she often sent some expensive clothes and jewelry to Cui's family. Cui's family married into the Wei Mansion, and because the eldest sister asked someone to make peace, how could she not be grateful to such a sister?

The sisters have something to say, Cui Ningjuan is her own family, so there is no need to shy away from it, but how can Wei Jiang still sit still? After hurriedly saluting, he found an excuse to go out.

Wei Jiang walked out of the main courtyard and walked through the garden, but was stopped by a person. When she raised her eyes, she was so frightened that she couldn't see her three souls, and in her own house, she met a foreign man!

The man was dressed in royal blue brocade, and his hands were outstretched, blocking her way: "This pretty sister, Xiaosheng got lost in the house, can you ask my sister to take Xiaosheng to Mrs. Cui's yard?" ”

Wei Jiang thought that he was mistaking himself for a maid, so he didn't say anything, pointed behind him and said, "Gongzi is Mrs. Cui's cousin, right?" The lady's yard was over there, through the garden, past the water pavilion, turn right and walk straight for a while. ”

Wei Jiang avoided the side, wanting to wait for him to pass before leaving, but who knew that the man not only did not leave, but said with a smile: "The Wei Mansion is very big, Xiaosheng is worried that he will get lost again, and he also asks his sister to be merciful, and lead the way to lead Xiaosheng over!" ”

Now that there are many things in the house, the people have their own affairs, and they are all busy with their feet not touching the ground, she went to Cui's place to help, and sent the personal maid back to the yard to get the gift list book she had handled, at this moment, she deeply regretted it, and should keep the maids by her side!

Under the sun, Wei Jiang had a small face, white and red, frowning, biting his lower lip, wanting to be angry but not angry, and his shy and anxious expression was indescribably cute and charming. The man fixed his eyes on her face, lingered for a moment, and then swept his gaze to her neck,......

At this time, Wei Jiang couldn't hold back his anger anymore, raised his hand and slapped him, and scolded angrily in his mouth: "Deng's disciple!" Shameless! Where do you look? ”
