Chapter 101: Wang Chu'an and Song Lianyi
When Jing Xing watched Wei Rui appear with a new purse, he was stunned.
Wei Rui looked at him and said, "Give you a new one, the old one is too old and looks ugly, this is the new one, I made it overnight, it should be much better than the previous one." ”
Jingxing didn't even dare to take a closer look at the stitches of the new purse, so he only accepted it and said, "Thank you, bother." ”
Wei Rui nodded: "If you still need this in the future, I can still do it for you." ”
Jingxing: "......"
When he said this, Wang Chu'an came in with ripples, and they usually had breakfast with Wei Rui and them, so today was no exception.
Although Wang Chuan was respectful to Jing Xing, he was not so afraid, so the dinner table was quite harmonious.
However, as soon as he was halfway through eating, Jing Xing said, "When are you two leaving?" ”
Wang Chu'an paused and looked at Wei Rui. Ripple was also a little worried, looking up at Wang Chu'an, and then at Wei Rui.
Before Wei Rui could speak, Jing Xing said: "Mrs. Zhang is gone, and Yang Yongan also said that this competition is over, so shouldn't you also go?" ”
Wei Rui hurriedly said: "No, no need to go, although the game is over, I can still receive guests here, you can continue to stay here......" She lowered her voice, "Mend your feelings." ”
"Really?" This was asked by Ripples, and it was obvious that she had a good time staying here for the past few days, so she was happy to stay.
After asking, she probably felt that this was not appropriate, and she was a little embarrassed and said, "No, I think the mountains and rivers here are very good, and the food cooked by Aunt Ying is also delicious." ”
Wang Chu'an said: "Yes, it's better than what you make." ”
Ripple lowered his head a little ashamedly, and Wei Rui said: "I also think that Aunt Ying's cooking is delicious, but I haven't eaten Ripple's cooking, so it's not good to evaluate." But ripples, aren't your hands very skillful? I feel like the needlework is very good. ”
"Huh?" Ripple seemed a little surprised, "How do you know?" ”
Wei Rui smiled: "Don't you just look at the purse around Wang Gongzi's waist?" It's much better than my craft, but my hands are so clumsy that I can't do anything well, and it looks ugly. ”
Jingxing: ......
"How can I do as well as you say, besides, I have practiced since I was a child, if you are a new learner, that is normal. However, if you don't dislike it, I can teach you to do it. ”
"Really?" Wei Rui came with a sense of interest, and said, "If you are willing to teach me this, I will let Aunt Ying teach you to cook, how about it?" ”
"Yes, yes!" Ripples are also interested.
Jingxing asked very sadly at this time: "So, Boss Wei, why don't you learn to cook?" ”
Wei Rui said proudly: "I have Aunt Ying!" ”
"Aunt Ying will get married in the future?" Jingxing asked.
"She has already been married, she shouldn't marry again, she shouldn't marry again" Speaking ......of this, Wei Rui suddenly felt that something was wrong, although Aunt Ying had been married, it didn't affect her next marriage, didn't it?
"Then I'll learn with you." Wei Rui changed her mind.
Jing Xing smiled, and then said, "I'm joking, don't cook your own food, cook yourself." ”
Wei Rui was noncommittal, but Wang Chu'an found the delicate feelings between the two people, he chuckled and then said: "Then it seems that I am afraid that the time I will stay here will not be short." ”
Jing Xing glanced at him indifferently and did not say a word.
After sending Jingxing away, Wang Chu'an had a friend who came here to look for him, saying that he had something to discuss, so Ripple followed Wei Rui into Wei Rui's house.
"How were these days here? Are you okay? Wei Rui asked first, and then made her a cup of hot tea.
Ripple nodded: "It's much more comfortable than at home, I like it here very much, I feel very free." ”
Wei Rui was stunned for a moment, and Ripple saw that her expression was a little surprised, so she said: "In the house, I don't dare to do anything, for fear that while I am doing it, the old lady will come." Say it, you may not believe it, everything I have done in the house, the old lady can't look down on it. ”
"How so?" Wei Rui was a little surprised, "You should be able to do everything very well, you don't have to pick needlework, cooking or something, it stands to reason that there should be a cook in your house, right?" ”
Ripple nodded, but said: "There is a cook, but the old lady has a lot of taboos, and there are very few things to eat, sometimes it takes a little effort to get it, and the chef will definitely not be very thoughtful if he wants to cook for everyone in the house." The old lady did not allow me to hire a cook who cooked for her, so the matter of cooking for her fell on me. ”
Wei Rui said politely: "I'm afraid this is deliberately embarrassing you, right?" ”
Ripple smiled and didn't speak.
The two of them drank tea at the same time, and Ripple didn't seem to want to mention this matter again, so he said, "Your house is very clean, it seems that Miss Wei, you are also a very capable person." ”
Wei Rui was stunned for a moment before saying, "Oh, I didn't live here last night, Jingxing lives here, it is estimated that he asked Mingzhou to clean it up, I don't clean it up on weekdays." ”
Ripple smiled: "It seems that your brother really spoils you, if I didn't clean up these at home, I would be scolded by someone." ”
Wei Rui didn't speak, and Ripple said again: "That Jing Gongzi seems to be a very good person, and your relationship is very good." ”
Wei Rui didn't react to this for a while, she didn't think that Ripple would mention Jingxing, so she thought about it before saying, "Oh, yes, when I first came here, he was half a friend of mine." ”
"Come here?" Ripple didn't understand, "Did you come to this village halfway?" ”
Wei Rui realized what he had done, and said: "That's not what I mean, it's that when I first went to the county seat, we met, and then we slowly became good friends." ”
"That's good." Ripple said, and after a while she added, "My husband and I also became friends because of a chance encounter, and I didn't expect to marry him at first." ”
Wei Rui knew the story, Wang Chu'an had already told her, but at this time she wanted to know how she looked at this matter from the perspective of ripples, so she asked, "Is it?" Why? ”
Ripple seemed to hesitate for a moment before slowly speaking: "I am the concubine of the family, my mother died early, I was not favored by my father, and I never studied, but I would do some rough work, and I tried to find a reason for myself to stay at home, and worked hard. In order to prove that I did not eat white rice at home, I worked for a long time, and then ate very little food, and even then the eldest lady was always dissatisfied. She originally wanted to sell me to an old rich businessman as a concubine, and the two of them were about to negotiate, but the old rich businessman once had a feud with my father, and my father did not agree, so this matter did not work out. ”
"Because of this incident, I have become even more difficult at home, and my father also feels that he is a little sorry for the eldest lady because of this matter, so he riveted his strength to find me a master who can give a lot of money and let me be a concubine."
She said she had already resigned herself to her fate.
Wei Rui looked at her and said these words with a flat face, as if she could understand where her inferiority complex in the palace came from, she always felt that she was not worthy of being loved, so even if Wang Chuan loved her with all her heart, she only dared to accept a little bit, because for her, if she accepted all the love of this man, it would be selfish.
How can one person dominate his husband? This is not okay, she heard such words in the backyard since she was a child, so she has affection for Wang Chu'an, but she doesn't dare to use her heart, because she wants to protect herself.
She has always believed that no one can protect her but herself.
"When the palace came to hire, I even thought that I was here to marry my sister, and I wanted to ask my sister to take me over as a girl. However, I know that my sister will not take me, she took me there, where did the eldest lady get the money to buy herself cloth and cut new clothes? ”
So, I stole behind the door and wondered if I could get a glimpse of him. At that time, the husband was different from now, although he was also very good-looking now, but at that time, he felt that he was unparalleled in the world, and he was envied by everyone and wanted to marry. I myself think that only a talented person like my sister can be worthy of him. But I didn't expect that the dowry was given to me. ”
Her eyes were bright when she said this, and Wei Rui could even feel her complicated feelings at that time and the ecstasy that was difficult to hide when she heard her.
The person you like, the person you feel will never be able to stand together, suddenly stretches out your hand to yourself, no matter what, this is an unimaginable thing, as if a dream has come true, and in an instant it is in a trance.
"I ran away, you know?" Ripple smiled and said, "I thought they were going to beat me and let me go out and be embarrassed, I didn't want to be embarrassed in front of him, so I ran away." ”
"He found me in the backyard and asked me a little unhappily, 'Do you just want to marry me so much?' At that moment, I had a sense of reality, and asked uncertainly several times, and only then did I believe it after watching him nod firmly. ”
Wei Rui also laughed and said, "Fortunately, he found you, if he doesn't find you, what will you do?" ”
Ripple didn't speak, just looked somewhere as if he was reminiscing, and after a long while, he said, "If he hadn't found me, I might have died, right?" I heard that the concubine who later entered the rich man's mansion either died or was given away, and he not only married me, but also saved me. ”
"It's just that I'm so uncompetitive that I can't even give him a child. He obviously helped me so much, and I still have to ask him to be reprimanded by his mother because of me. ”
"I always feel sorry for him."
Ripple looked at the teacup in front of him, and finally cried: "I don't want to give him a concubine, but I can't help it." ”
