Text Chapter 173: A little bit of a cocoon
What Cheng Yunqing didn't expect was that Wei Man would not like Zhuang Chun'er no matter what......
"I'll be responsible," Cheng Yunqing said in a tone that was half comforting and half reassuring: "Chun'er, I will treat you well in the future......"
……
On a carriage that shook slightly.
“…… The robber suddenly changed his tune again, shouting that they hadn't insulted Miss Yin Wu, that they just wanted money...... The prince of Fu'an intervened, and the robber had already been sentenced to Ling Chi......"
Early this morning, the incident of Miss Yin Wu's kidnapping was finally over, and Ta Ge was talking about the twists and turns that spread all over the streets and alleys for Wei Man.
Wei Man just listened with a calm face, and did not comment on it.
……
The carriage stopped in front of the largest bookstore in the capital.
In the huge bookstore, there are only three or four customers.
As soon as Wei Man walked in, he saw a familiar figure picking through the mountains of used book stalls.
In an instant, everything that happened in the Sogo Temple, from Miss Yin Wu's affectionate call to "brother-in-law" to the robbery who "bullied" Miss Yin Wu was sentenced to Ling Chi under the intervention of the Fu'an Palace......
Wei Man carefully observed the husband candidate in front of her who she had "fancied", in the past, she always felt that that person was a person who was misunderstood by the public, and that person was a royal nobleman who was similar to ordinary people...... However, as time passed, Wei Man really felt that she didn't know the person in front of her at all......
Probably aware of Wei Man's gaze, the man who was picking up books turned his head to look in Wei Man's direction.
Shocked, Wei Man hurriedly straightened his mind, took a few steps forward and saluted respectfully, and said, "I've seen Prince Fu'an." ”
Prince Fu'an's gaze swept up and down Wei Man's body, and he replied lightly, "Hmm." Then he turned his head and continued to look at the book in his hand.
Seeing that the prince of Fu'an didn't want to deal with it, Wei Man was blessed with interest and turned to leave.
Just two steps.
"Wait, come here." Prince Fu'an's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Wei Man paused, and a respectful and friendly smile appeared on her face now, and then she turned to look at Prince Fu'an.
Prince Fu'an was untying a large package beside him.
The package was scattered, and Wei Man looked at the stacks of small toys almost dumbfounded.
"Oh," the prince of Fu'an snorted and said, "choose the most beautiful one." ”
Wei Man looked at the colorful toys that the little girls liked, and then looked at the cold face of the prince of Fu'an, swallowed his saliva, Wei Man smiled reluctantly, and said, "Is the prince going to give a gift to the little princess...... The things that the prince chose are all very good, and they can all be given to the little princess...... Children, the more gifts you like, the better......"
Prince Fu'an looked at Wei Man with some scrutiny, and said, "So, girls are insatiable......"
The smile on Wei Man's face froze, and he didn't understand whether the prince of Fu'an was just saying something or meaning something, so he squatted down, picked a red and colorful little dragonfly, and said, "This little county lord should like it." ”
"This?" Prince Fu'an took the little dragonfly in Wei Man's hand and looked at it with suspicion.
"Cousin Oman! Oman cousin! A figure hurriedly walked in while calling.
Wei Man looked at it and waved his hand with a busy smile.
The person who came was Cheng Yunqing, but this time it was not a coincidence, but an appointment made by Wei Man and Cheng Yunqing the last time they met.
"You didn't heed my advice!" Prince Fu'an suddenly said coldly behind Wei Man.
Wei Man was suffocated, and hurriedly turned around to look at Prince Fu'an.
Here, Cheng Yunqing, who walked in, also found the prince of Fu'an, and hurriedly saluted respectfully.
Prince Fu'an's attitude towards Cheng Yunqing was very cold, but it was much better than the deliberate targeting when they met last time, so Cheng Yunqing couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved, he wanted to say a few more words to break the inexplicable weirdness between him and Prince Fu'an, but Prince Fu'an didn't give Cheng Yunqing a chance.
An entourage that came out of nowhere sorted out the big package on the ground, followed the prince of Fu'an out of the bookstore.
Wei Man stood in place with a somewhat unbelievable expression, because before leaving, Prince Fu'an said another sentence in her ear: "For his good, don't associate with him......"
"Cousin Oman, cousin Oman!?" Cheng Yunqing called.
"Ahh Wei Man came back to his senses for a long time, and his usual light smile appeared on his face again.
"What kind of books does Cousin Oman like?" Cheng Yunqing said with a smile: "I am still very familiar with this list of bookstores......
Wei Man and Cheng Yunqing selected five or six travelogues in the bookstore, and after that, the two went to taste the famous snacks and specialties, and in the afternoon, they went to listen to the wonderful storytelling together...... By the time Wei Man returned to the town of Guohou Mansion, it was already evening.
Back in Manhui Garden, Wei Man immediately discussed with Cheng's mother about going to Youyu Garden tomorrow.
In his previous life, Weiman had heard that if he couldn't decide whether he should marry his boyfriend, he would travel with him once.
Wei Man and Cheng Yunqing can't have the opportunity to travel for a few days and nights under the existing conditions, but a short date is possible, in these few times, it is impossible to say that Wei Man fell in love with Cheng Yunqing, but Cheng Yunqing's performance is also remarkable, Wei Man found that Cheng Yunqing likes her, and she does not reject spending the rest of her life with Cheng Yunqing...... If time permits, Wei Man may develop more emotional foundation with Cheng Yunqing, but after listening to the warning of Prince Fu'an, Wei Man did not dare to wait......
As soon as Cheng's mother retreated, Xia Lan, who was already well-injured, walked into the inner room.
Xia Lan had come to tell Wei Man about some of the wood incense she had discovered.
Mu Xiang's father and mother brothers have nothing special, they don't have any real power, they just take on some dispensable work, her family is the most ordinary low-level subordinate among the children of the Zhenguo Houfu family, to a certain extent, Mu Xiang can become Aunt Jiang's maid is considered to have taken a "big luck".
Before entering the Fuhua Courtyard, Mu Xiang was a little maid in the small warehouse of Xi Garden, and it is said that this is because Mu Xiang's grandmother had some friendship with Jiang's mother, who was in charge of the warehouse...... Judging from this, Mu Xiang should be Aunt Jiang's loyal maid.
It's just that since Wei Man believes that Mu Xiang is involved with the second room, then, in Xia Lan's heart, Mu Xiang must be related, not to mention, as long as things happen, no matter how well they cover up, there will always be some clues to be found.
“…… Mu Xiang had accidentally broken a thing in the Xiyuan warehouse, as for what it was, the slave maid had not yet inquired, I heard that it was about a very valuable ornament, at that time, Mu Xiang was almost sold, but in the end, it was found that the thing had already been replaced by the third young master, so the ornament that Mu Xiang broke was actually a fake, so that Mu Xiang could save his life...... However, the slave found out that the person who exposed the fact that the ornament was a fake was Tao's mother...... Someone saw that Tao Gui's family and Mu Xiang had several contacts recently......"
After listening to Xia Lan's words, Wei Man pondered for a long time.
"Miss, this ......" Xia Lan said: "Mother Tao, will she offend the third young master and Aunt Huang for a little wood fragrance?" ”
In Xia Lan's heart, no matter how important Mu Xiang is, she is just a little maid, and it is not worth it for Mother Tao to offend the third young master Wei Zheng, who may inherit the position of the son, in order to save her.
However, everything about Mu Xiang is very ordinary, and there seems to be only one thing in her life that barely has some loopholes.
Wei Man shook his head lightly and said, "If it's just to save Mu Xiang, Mother Tao will definitely not be like this...... I guess there may have been other things happening at that time, and saving Muxiang was just a favor from Tao's mother...... More likely, the woody fragrance has always been exploited......"
Xia Lan thought about it, and felt that the news she was inquiring about was very scarce, and while thinking that she had to inquire about it more, she said, "...... Gao Dashan, the son of the executive, likes Qinghua very much, but Gao Ding, the wife of the executive, looks down on Qinghua, the prospective daughter-in-law, not only does she paint Qinghua several times in public, but also complains to many people that Qinghua is not worthy of her son Gao Dashan...... Tao Gui's family is Gao Ding's niece, although there is no discord with Qinghua on the surface, but the relationship is not good......"
Wei Man bowed slightly, very satisfied with the news brought by Xia Lan.
Gao Ding's dissatisfaction with Qinghua's prospective daughter-in-law was something Wei Man had heard of a long time ago.
Qinghua is the big girl of Xiyuan, she is very kind and kind to people, and she can even use it to the point of never being evil to others, and you can feel like a spring breeze when you come into contact with Qinghua up and down...... However, these Qinghua are very rare advantages in Wei Man's eyes, and in Gao Ding's eyes, it is because Qinghua is not a child, and she has no backing in the mansion at will, and if she wants to survive in the backyard of the Hou Mansion where the relationship is intertwined, he can only dare not offend anyone......
Gao Ding's family didn't want Qinghua, a "lonely" daughter-in-law, but the relationship between Qinghua and Gao Dashan was personally begged by Gao Da Steward to Mrs. Tai, which was obviously not something that could be easily returned...... If Gao Ding's family must prevent Qinghua from entering the door, then it is a one-and-done method to conspire with many parties to slander Qinghua's innocence......
It's night.
The most private and dirty corner of the Xi Garden, in the dark firewood room.
A small figure was huddled on its knees in the haystack, trembling slightly.
The sound of shredded footsteps came from far and near, and the figure cowering in the dead grass suddenly froze.
Footsteps came to the door.
"Woody?" A deep voice called.
I saw that the figure in the dry grass got up sharply, and jumped to the door in a few steps.
"Aunt Ding!" Mu Xiang pressed the door panel and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it you?" Aunt Ding! Is that you? ”
"It's me, it's my ......" Tao Gui's family responded: "You be quieter!" ”
