Chapter 119: The Wei Family
When the carriage reached the city gate, he saw a caravan entering the city in front of him.
Qian Xun's eyes were sharp, and he whispered to Yuan Lingchen: "It's the Wei family's caravan." ”
Yuan Lingchen picked up the corner of the curtain, looked up, and saw a carriage next to each other.
The caravan traveled all the way west through the desert area, and the carriage naturally could not pass, so they must have rested in another place, loaded the goods into the wagon, and transported them back to Chengzheng
The system's voice was not without envy: "There are a lot of good things in it, no wonder those families are so rich." ”
Yuan Lingchen's expression was quite ordinary: "The westward journey is thousands of miles, and I don't know how many bones have been left behind, we only see the brilliance on the surface, but it is difficult to understand the hardships and dangers." ”
"That's just as well."
The safe return of the Wei family's caravan is a grand event, and Wei Shi also gave her a post in his busy schedule.
The place of appointment is not the Chen family, but the Wei family.
Early the next morning, Yuan Lingchen went to Wei's house with Qian Huan.
Because he was going to enter the Wei family's house this time, Qian Wei dressed himself up as a low-eyed maid.
Looking at the age of thirteen or fourteen, his face is very ordinary.
When she arrived at Linfang, there was already a servant woman in Tsing Yi waiting outside, and she was a little surprised to see that it was just a maid who was driving, but she quickly suppressed this look.
The system whispered to her: "This person is Webster's confidant and is quite valued. ”
Yuan Lingchen got out of the carriage, and the man hurriedly answered, and after being polite, he led them to the door.
"My wife arrived with Lang yesterday, and the old lady listened to you earlier, and specially asked the slave maid to take you over to have a look."
The old lady of the Wei family heard that she was old, and she usually didn't see much of her, let alone Yuan Lingchen, who she had never met.
She didn't expect that the old lady of the Wei family would want to see her, but at this time, she had already mentioned it, and she had no reason to shirk it.
Along the way, I arrived at a quiet courtyard.
Yuan Lingchen has a system, so he naturally knows that this courtyard looks secluded, but it is not remote, not far from the main courtyard.
The people in this courtyard are all well-behaved, and they don't see such arrogant and indiscriminate people, and they don't know how to do anything when they see Yuan Lingchen, they don't ask about the origin, they first salute her respectfully, and then they go to do their own things.
When they entered the courtyard, the person who reported came out again, smiled and said, "It's the girl of the Yuan family, the old lady let you in." ”
Yuan Lingchen thanked her and followed the person into the door.
There was a warm fragrance in the house, which was not strong.
Yuan Lingchen also knew how to make incense in his previous life, and knew that this incense was harmless, and it also had some sleep-aiding effects.
At this time, she had raised her eyes and saw a plump old woman with white hair, but she was in good spirits, looking at her with burning eyes, with a smile on her face, giving people an indescribable kind blessing
In front of her, on the seat on the left, sat a somewhat dignified woman, with a solemn face, her gaze was not contemptuous, but she obviously didn't like Yuan Lingchen.
The one on the right who was always smiling at her was Wei, and behind her stood the stunned Chen Yuxuan.
When Yuan Lingchen entered the door, he reacted: "It's you?" ”
This tone was quite excited, which surprised everyone present.
Wei Shi looked at Yuan Lingchen, then turned his head and asked Chen Yuxuan: "Xuan'er knows this girl?" ”
Chen Yuxuan nodded: "She was the one who saved me from the traffickers." ”
The old woman had heard about Chen Yuxuan's abduction and trafficking, and she also knew that he was rescued by chance, but the man acted in a low-key manner and saved people without leaving a name.
Originally, she felt regretful, but when she heard that saving people was in front of her, she suddenly became interested: "It turns out that you saved my family Xuan'er." ”
"It's just luck."
Webster's expression softened when he looked at her: "To be able to escape safely in the hands of so many people requires not only luck, but also courage and wisdom......"
At the beginning, Wei did not mention the fact that the traffickers were unconscious, but only praised Yuan Lingchen's righteous deeds at that time.
The old woman also had a little more affection for her, and beckoned to her.
When Yuan Lingchen stepped forward to salute, she took her hand to her side: "What a painful child." ”
Then, he took out a wooden box that had been prepared from the case and stuffed it into Yuan Lingchen's hand Zheng
This is an unwritten rule of this dynasty, and Yuan Lingchen did not refuse.
At this time, the majestic woman also took out the gift, Yuan Lingchen had heard the system mention it before, this woman was Wei's eldest sister-in-law, He's, and she was also the wife of the Wei family.
Yuan Lingchen also thanked him.
It was Merriam-Webster, who also prepared something for her.
At this time, the old woman of the Wei family, Xu saw her fall in love, and had pulled her to sit beside her.
Seeing this, a trace of darkness flashed in He's eyes, but a stiff smile appeared on his face: "My mother has not seen such a person for a long time." ”
is her own granddaughter, and few of them can sit directly next to her.
I don't know what is special about this girl from a farmer's family.
The old lady listened to her words and smiled even more happily: "I feel comfortable when I see this child, and it is indeed fate." ”
"I heard that the method of planting pepper is what you offered? But I don't know where I found out? ”
It's not polite, but it's not bad either.
But you must know that a big clan like this pays attention to rules and manners, every word and deed represents the decency of the clan, and they will not speak ill of each other when they are idle.
The old lady beside Yuan Lingchen's eyes sank, obviously displeased: "No matter where people know about it, it has nothing to do with us." ”
He was still thinking about talking, but seeing that the old lady was displeased, he also closed his mouth with interest, and it didn't take long for him to get up and say goodbye under the pretext that something was wrong, but the old lady only waved her hand and did not keep it.
Yuan Lingchen was also a little embarrassed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
"She has such a temperament, don't take it to heart."
Yuan Lingchen shook his head: "After all, it is a meeting in Pingshui, and it is normal for people to be suspicious and worried." ”
was so empathetic, the old woman looked at her higher, and then asked a lot about her, Yuan Lingchen could only do what he could, and he also prevaricated if he couldn't.
After nearly an hour like this, the old lady was already a little tired, so Wei took her and Chen Yuxuan out of the courtyard.
When he got outside, Chen Yuxuan was much more relaxed, and he laughed with Yuan Lingchen all the way.
But under the tree not far away, there was a cardamom woman staring at Yuan Lingchen with a look of jealousy.
This scene naturally did not escape the eyes of the system, and in a blink of an eye, it was related to Yuan Lingchen.
She turned her head and met the man's eyes, pretending to be unintentional.
"Who's that man?"
Wei followed her gaze: "That's the youngest daughter of my brother's family, and she has a good time with Xuan'er." ”
Chen Yuxuan had also seen the person at this time, and ran over with a high chest: "Sister Yan'er." ”
