Chapter 70: The Show Begins
The rain continued for another four or five days, and the weather was as cold as late autumn.
The suitcases that had been placed in the high place were taken down and opened, and the clothes from the previous season were taken out again.
The Wei family fell in love with the mutton soup made by Wei Yining, and they had to drink it every day, accompanied by vegetables and steamed cakes, and the fourth lady Wei Lanmei's pink cheeks became more and more polished.
Fifth Miss Wei Lanqi's cats will run to the table and wait when it is time to eat. Because there is a pan-fried dried fish, which is their favorite.
The day finally cleared, and the sun, which had not been seen for a long time, hung in the sky. The drainage facilities of Zhaoyi City are excellent, and although it has rained for so many days, there is basically no standing water in the city.
Therefore, once the weather is clear, the shops have opened their doors and will continue to open as usual, without delay.
The flowers and trees in the city, after the baptism of rain, are more verdant and delicate, the whole Zhaoyi city has a new look, the Yonghe River has risen, and many people go to the top for a boat tour.
Wei Yining thought that he should also go back to the Zhiyong Mansion, so he resigned to the Wei family.
The Wei family was naturally reluctant to let her go, and tried their best to stay for a few more days, among which Wei Lanmei and Wei Laner were the closest to her, and they were so anxious to cry when they heard that she was going back, and they didn't let them go.
Wei Yining had no choice but to say: "I also love to live here, but I have been out for so many days, and I always have to go back." Of course, I was reluctant to let my mother and sisters, let alone Yingjue, but I hadn't seen my grandmother for a long time, and I always thought about her old man. ”
The old princess nodded and said, "Your sisters have a good relationship, and they are not bad at this time. Anyway, if you live closely, you can come and go often in the future. Now that the rain had stopped, the Duchess would blame her if she was not allowed to return. ”
Wei Yining smiled and said, "The eldest aunt is the most generous to me, mother don't worry." ”
The old princess nodded and didn't speak again, but sighed in her heart that Wei Yining was really a sensible child.
Thinking that it is impossible for her to go smoothly in the Zhiyong Mansion, there must be such and such difficulties, it is rare that she never complains, and always looks at ease
The palace prepared a lot of gifts for Wei Yining, and asked her to take them back and give them to Mrs. Zhu and Bao Shi and others.
He also ordered the carriage to be driven and ordered to send Wei Yining back to the Zhiyong Mansion.
Wei Yining left while Wei Yimi and Wei Yingjue were sleeping, if he was awake, it would be absolutely impossible to let Wei Yining go.
Wei Yining took the carriage of the Qingxi Mansion back to the Zhiyong Mansion, got off the carriage in front of the door, turned his head and gave the coachman a few taels of silver as a reward, and told him to go back to the princess and a few young ladies to reply that he had returned home safely, so that they didn't have to worry.
The Zhiyong Mansion seemed to be the same as usual, the housekeeper and the little maid who guarded the door asked Wei Yining to say goodbye, Chunjiao walked in from the West Corner Gate with her in her arms, and Xiao She'er was holding a gift in the back.
"Let's go to Grandmother's first!" Wei Yining said to the two maids, "I'll see Madame later." ”
Several people came to Mrs. Zhu's courtyard, and it happened that Wei Aluan was also there.
Wei Yining stepped forward to ask for peace, and when she saw that Mrs. Zhu was looking good, she said happily: "As soon as the little aunt came back, my grandmother immediately looked like she was twenty years younger. I'm still worried outside, and the old lady will probably feel uncomfortable on such a rainy day, and it seems that I'm worried in vain. ”
Mrs. Zhu heard this and said, "You wild girl, how many days have you been running away, and I plan to send someone to pick you up today!" Who would have thought that you would come back on your own. ”
Wei Aluan also smiled and said: "It can be seen that you have been in the palace these days, and you have grown taller and taller." With you back to accompany the old lady, I am much more relieved. ”
Although Wei Yining is young, she acts steadily, Mrs. Zhu likes her, and Wei Aluan also feels that he is very relieved to be by the old lady's side.
Wei Yining asked Chunjiao to bring up the gifts from the palace, except for the one left for the Bao family, the rest were placed here by Mrs. Zhu.
A few people sat and gossiped, and Wei Aluan was sad in his heart, but it was not easy to bring it out on his face.
Shao Tong has hardly turned the sky over at home these days, but just asked his family to go to Qingxi Wangfu to propose marriage.
The Shao family members disagreed, firstly, Wei Lanpei was older than him, and secondly, even if he proposed to marry Wei Lanpei, he would never marry.
The Shao family didn't want to make things known to everyone, which would only make Shao Tong laugh and be harmful to his future.
Wei Aluan said all the good and bad things, but Shao Tong didn't listen to anything.
Shao Tianzi was angry and moved the family law against Shao Tong.
Now Shao Tong can only lie on the bed to recuperate, and he can't even go to the ground.
Wei Aluan was distressed and helpless, and couldn't tell anyone, so he was soft-hearted.
Shao Tianzi felt sorry for his wife, and blamed his son for messing around, plus the new official took office, and he was busy every day.
Fortunately, there are still Qinyong and his wife to share their worries, so that they will not be left and right.
Wei Yining saw that something was wrong with Shao Tong that day, so he didn't ask anything more today.
Wei Aluan sat for a while, then got up and left, saying that he was going to go to Sienbo's Mansion for a walk.
Wei Yining talked with Mrs. Zhu for a while, beat her legs, and saw that the old lady was asleep, so she quietly withdrew with the two maids, turned around and walked towards her yard.
After a few days of rain, the courtyard of the Zhiyong Mansion was much wetter than before, and moss grew in many places.
Xiao She'er was worried that Wei Yining would slip, so she reminded her: "Pay attention to the girl's feet, this moss is very slippery." ”
As a result, Wei Yining walked very steadily, but she fell uncontrollably.
Wei Yining hurriedly asked, "Where did the fall hurt?" ”
Xiao She'er got up and said nonchalantly: "The slave has rough skin and thick flesh, and there is nothing to do." ”
Chunjiao said to her: "The girl is steady!" But you are reckless all day long, I advise you to pay more attention to the soles of your feet! The newly made clothes are so dirty, go back and quickly change them and wash them. ”
The three of them walked forward while talking, and when they passed by Wei Yiwan's courtyard, someone hurriedly walked over and almost bumped into Wei Yining.
Wei Yining raised his eyes and saw that this person had a skinny face and small eyebrows, and his cheeks were slightly freckles, and he was the maid Chunlan in Wei Yiwan's room.
Chunlan hurriedly apologized, didn't raise her head much, and left in a hurry.
Chunjiao was inevitably displeased, stood up and said, "Why is Chunlan so unruly!" If you are in such a hurry to leave, is it possible that where to put the reward money? ”
While talking, I also saw if Wei Yining was bumped in.
"I'm fine," Wei Yining shook his head lightly and said, "She didn't hit me." ”
The wind after the rain was still very cool, blowing the bangs on Wei Yining's forehead. Her deep eyes were radiant, quietly staring at Chunlan's back.
Chunlan walked in a hurry, like stepping on gongs and drums, does this indicate that another good show in the Zhiyong Mansion is about to start?
Wei Yining's pink lips raised a slight arc, and it seemed that he had come back just right.
