Chapter 12: Settle down
As he spoke, he quietly withdrew his hand, leaning back, keeping a few distances from her.
Meng Jingrou was very dissatisfied with his move, perhaps because of her own weak heart, she suspected that Wei Wei was suspicious of her.
It's just that seeing that he smiled impeccablely, she was a little confused again, didn't she? Are you thinking too much?
Forget it, let's keep a low profile first, go back and have more contact with the people around you, and learn more about Pei's personality, so as not to be suspected of anything.
Anyway, there will be a long time in the future, and the matter of revenge needs to be discussed in the long run.
As for the people of the Pei family? Hmph, they don't dare to go out and talk nonsense. Without her, they are nothing!
"Wellβlet's go home, I'm a little tired." She straightened her hair and said casually.
Wei Wei's eyes flashed slightly, and then he smiled dotingly: "Okay." β
Under the incredible gaze of many people around him, he smiled and sent Meng Jingrou, who was holding Yuan Xuan's body, into the sedan chair and told the sedan chair man to be careful.
After making a few gestures with the people in the shadows, and after a few people responded to a few gestures, he turned over and got on the horse with an expressionless face.
On the way back, there was no obstacle all the way, and when he returned to the mansion, Wei Wei saw that the person who went to invite Chen Daochang came back. A glint flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly coaxed Meng Jingrou into the backyard first.
After that, under the pretext that he wanted to clean her hands, he asked her to read the book for a while, and he went to the main courtyard.
After arriving at the main courtyard, he first comforted his mother's physical condition, and after learning that she was fine, he was relieved, and went to ask Lang Zhong to prescribe some soothing soup and take Bai's mother away.
After leaving the courtyard, he found a hidden place and told Bai's mother what happened at Pei's house in the morning, and told her that Yuan Xuan had hysteria and could not let anyone know about it.
After talking about the seriousness of the matter, Wei Wei instructed Bai's mother again: "You will monitor Madame's every move for me later, and if there is anything abnormal, let Qiao'er go to the front yard and call me over at any time." β
Mother Bai put away the shocked look on her face and nodded "yes", followed him into the yard, and went to the small kitchen with Qiao'er to decoct the medicine.
Wei Wei didn't rush to leave at this time, she went back to the room to take a look first, wanting to see what Meng Jingrou was doing at this time.
Seeing that she took out the most important box of Yuan Xuan and tried to open it, his face changed, and he went in with a straight face to stop: "What are you doing here?" I didn't tell you, it's something very important and you can't touch it! β
Meng Jingrou was shocked by his words for a moment, turned her head and twisted her eyebrows and said displeasedly: "I just want to see what is inside, just forget it if you don't let me see it, what are you doing to me?" β
After finishing speaking, she pushed open the box in front of her lightly, and made a sullen look around her chest.
Gu Sanniang told her that Pei's love to play with a small temper, she shouldn't make him suspicious if she said this, right?
I have to say that her awkward appearance at the moment really has a bit of a sense of time, which makes Wei Wei almost believe it.
But he quickly came to his senses, his eyes darkened, and he walked over and took the box.
He lowered his head and deliberately didn't look at Meng Jingrou's face, hiding the frustration in his eyes and said, "There are still a lot of business to deal with in the front yard, so I won't accompany you for now." I asked Mother Bai to boil a tonic soup for you, you have to drink it obediently, and you can't lose your temper. β
Meng Jingrou saw that he said a few words and left, and hurriedly chased after him and hugged his waist from behind and rubbed gently: "But I don't want you to go, Brother Xuancheng, can you stay and drink with me?" Otherwise, I won't drink it......"
As she spoke, her hand tentatively slowly reaching for Wei Wei's lower abdomen.
Meng Jingrou's seduction was obvious, Wei Wei couldn't bear her doing such a thing against Yuan Xuan's body, and he couldn't even do it at this time.
He broke free from her embrace with a cold face, endured his nausea and anger, and scolded: "Be safe, don't mess around!" With that, he strode away.
At this time, he no longer wanted to take her words, he just wanted Chen Dao Chang to drive her out of Yuan Xuan's body.
If it weren't for Yuan Xuan's body, it would not be enough for her to die a hundred times!
Meng Jingrou was stunned by his last look, and didn't dare to continue pestering him, watching his back disappear.
After he left, she thought disdainfully in her heart that he was nothing more than Pei's.
Later, under the watchful eyes of Mother Bai, she drank a large bowl of "nourishing soup" and lay on the bed for a while before falling asleep.
At this time, Wei Wei in the front yard was in a very bad mood, because the person who went to ask Chen Dao Chang said that Chen Dao Chang was not in Lanling Mountain at present.
The little Taoist priest of Lanling Mountain told them that Chen Daochang had not gone back since he left Lanling Mountain a few days ago. He also asked people to carry a letter back, saying that there was a difference in stargazing and that they had traveled around.
After they left, Xiao Shunzi came back from Pei's house and told Wei Wei that Langzhong had been diagnosed, and Pei's father was diagnosed as a stroke, and Pei's mother had a precursor to a stroke.
Liu is fine, and the child is fine, but he is frightened.
Wei Wei thought about it for a while, and asked Xiao Shunzi to call a few sedan chair bearers who carried the sedan chair today, and sat at the stone table to interrogate them about the whole story.
Although he had already prepared in his heart, it could be seen that when the person imitating Meng Jingrou made a cheap move, he couldn't help but turn pale, and with a "snap", he crushed the tea cup in his hand.
The palms and fingers were pierced by porcelain in many places, and blood flowed down the warm tea on the stone table, not only a few palanquins, but even Xiao Shunzi was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
When he learned that Meng Jingrou deliberately whispered in the ears of Pei's mother and Pei's father, causing the second elder to fall, Wei Wei felt deeply remorseful.
After thinking about it, he asked Xiao Shunzi to go to Pei Yuanfei and prepare to hand over Meng Jingrou with him.
Because if she didn't tell her that the Pei family was having trouble with her, there would definitely be chaos in the county after she left.
But just when he made up his mind to set off for Daxing City later, Xiao Shunzi hurriedly ran over and said, "My lord, General Wang has an urgent matter to ask to see your lord." β
General Wang? What did he suddenly ask to see him?
"Bring General Wang in." Wei Wei got up and straightened his clothes according to his patience.
General Wang was the man in charge of his cattle, horses, and sheep, and was one of the people who lived and died with him at the beginning.
His appearance was so badly damaged that he no longer appeared in front of people, and every day he and his soldiers grazed horses and cattle and sheep for him in the mountains.
Although he rarely appeared in front of Wei Wei, Wei Wei never forgot him, in his opinion, the people who came out of the mountains with him at the beginning were all different, and they were all as important as Zheng Haiyang.
A short time later, a dark-skinned, one-eyed man with a short beard walked in from around the corner.
The scars on his face were very terrifying, and he said solemnly after walking up to Wei Wei: "My lord, please hold your back." β
"Go down, and do what I tell you to do." Even though Wei Wei trusted Xiao Shunzi, he still decisively let him leave at this time.
