Chapter 251: Settle In
The reception banquet is different from usual, there is no "food without speaking" rule, everyone is talking more and eating less, just because there is too much to say.
Mrs. Zhu is very interested, these two daughters are now in front of her, and what the old man is looking forward to is a reunion.
Everyone had to say a few more words than usual in order to make the old lady happy, so the dinner table was very lively.
Wei Yining found that Qiao Shutong was extremely approachable, and he did not have the reserved arrogance of ordinary nobles at all.
Wei Changan sat next to him, and he could deal with everything he said.
Wei Yimi's heart couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, if it was according to the original plan, she would marry to the south.
Qiao Shutong is so outstanding, even if he wants to compare with Yan Kentang, he is much stronger than Feng Yuchao.
It's just that his marriage is now a foregone conclusion, and it's useless to think about it.
In fact, even if she marries in the south, it is impossible to marry Qiao Shutong, but she can't help but think about it when she sees such an outstanding character.
As soon as Wei Yi's room saw that Qiao Shutong was so easy-going, he tried his best to curry favor.
They didn't have much to expect, they just wanted to please him.
They are alone in this house, and they always want to find someone to rely on, even if this support is only temporary.
What's more, Qiao Shutong did not have the slightest arrogant look, and was just as polite to them, which made them feel courteous.
Compared with him, Wei Changan's brother is really a little unqualified.
When the meal was over, the servants removed the dishes and brought tea again.
Wei Yujue thought of several relatives in Beijing, and had to ask about the current situation one by one.
It's just personnel metabolism, blessings and misfortunes are impermanent, and it is naturally embarrassing to talk about it in detail.
After gossiping for a long time, considering that Mrs. Zhu had to take a nap every day, Bao got up with a smile on her face and said, "Big sister got up early and hurried, and after talking about this half a day, it is time to take a rest." The old lady also has to take a nap every day, otherwise she will be in good spirits in the second half of the day. ”
Wei Yujue smiled: "Yes, it's been a while after dinner, and we have to continue chatting after a break!" ”
At that moment, Wei Aluan sent Mrs. Zhu back to the room, and Bao accompanied Wei Yujue's mother and son to the guest room that had been cleaned up in advance.
"The preparation is a bit hasty, if my sister has anything else to use, just tell me, this is your mother's house, don't see it."
Bao said humbly: "These things used can't be compared with your palace, sister and Shutong should take care of it!" ”
"Uncle and aunt are bothered," Qiao Shutong smiled as modestly as jade: "Everywhere is thoughtful, it's really more convenient than being in your own home." ”
"Oh, this kid is becoming more sensible and polite, it's really heart-wrenching!" Bao smiled and said, "It's really a blessing from several generations of cultivation!" ”
"Go and rest in your room for a while!" Wei Yujue said to his son: "Don't run around. ”
Qiao Shutong listened respectfully and turned around, Bao Shiwu looked at his back with an envious look in his eyes, how good it would be if such a good child was his own.
After Wei Yujue waited for his son to leave, his expression couldn't help but become a little solemn, and he said to Bao's family: "A few days ago, Ah Luan wrote to inform me about Yiwan's matter, it's a pity!" ”
Wei Aluan knew that her sister was going back to Beijing, and thought that Bao would never write to Wei Yujue to inform her about these things.
If Wei Yujue didn't know, and asked rashly after entering the mansion, it would inevitably be embarrassing for each other.
So she deliberately wrote a letter two months in advance, telling Wei Yujue about what happened to the Wei family in the past six months, just to let her be prepared.
Although the letter was not very detailed, Wei Yujue was still very surprised after reading it.
However, in just one or two months, the Wei family died several times one after another, and Wei Changan was also imprisoned.
As for the methods used by Aunt Mei and Aunt Liu, it is even more unheard of and outrageous.
When Bao heard her mention it, he couldn't help but shed tears, and said: "The four girls are not blessed, so they asked someone to plot against them." It's also that I was too careless, and by the time I found out, there was no cure. ”
"The dead are long gone, and you have to mourn." Wei Yujue said with relief: "Another day, I will ask Shutong to go to Yiwan and Yibao to put incense on my behalf, but it is pitiful, it is only so young." ”
Bao Shi wiped her tears and said: "My sister has a heart, but they are juniors after all, and they didn't break them." ”
The man said a few more words, and Bao got up and said, "Sister, rest quickly!" I've just come home, don't worry about these things, take a break, and keep your spirit up. Many relatives have to come to visit when they hear that you are back, and there are countless entertainments, so our own family can talk about everything. ”
Wei Yujue knew that she was telling the truth, so she said: "Don't patronize me, you have to pay more attention to your body, such a big family is all pointing to you to be busy." Now that it's the end of the year again, and Yi Mi's family affairs, you are the busiest person now. I don't treat myself as an outsider, you don't treat our girls as guests, just take a break when you have time, you are not young anymore, you must know how to hurt yourself! ”
One sentence brought Bao's tears down again, and he held Wei Yujue's hand and said: "Sister, for more than half a year, only you and your sister have comforted me so much, my heart is ......."
Wei Yujue couldn't help but sigh, no matter what the Bao family was on weekdays, this experience was indeed tragic, and whoever changed it would have to take off a layer of skin.
As a mother herself, she knows that losing a child is the most painful thing in the world.
"Don't be sad, it's all my fault, and I mention these sad things again," Wei Yujue blamed himself: "This family is still counting on you!" ”
That being said, if you don't even mention it, you can't say it, you always have to ask a little bit to be considered a full courtesy.
Bao smiled reluctantly and said, "I know, this is what I said in front of my sister and in front of others, and I didn't even blink my eyes." ”
The Bao family asked someone to take all the servants of the Qiao family down to rest, and asked a few capable subordinates in his house to come and serve.
Then he withdrew and went back to his lodgings to rest for a while.
In the afternoon, Wei Yujue came to Mrs. Zhu's side to speak, and Wei Aluan said: "Big sister, Shutong, when I came, our old lady and sister-in-law specially told me again and again that you must come to our house as a guest the day after tomorrow, and you must appreciate your face." ”
Wei Yujue smiled: "You didn't say that we were going too, and I haven't seen your old lady for many years." ”
At this time, the maid who came with the Qiao family had already found all the gifts prepared by Wei Yujue for everyone, and at first they got out of the car and the cages were stacked in one place, but now they are sorted out.
Wei Yujue sent the gifts prepared for everyone one by one, and asked Wei Aluan to bring back the gifts for the Shao family, and decided to take his son to visit the Qinyong Mansion the day after tomorrow.
Since then, Wei Yujue's mother and son have lived in the Wei family, and their residence is very close to Mrs. Zhu, which is convenient for walking.
