Chapter 137: Love and Hate
Back at Nanfeng Courtyard, Wei Qizhang really didn't overstep, only asked his subordinates to take care of Wei Ruyi, and left.
Wei Ruyi stood at the door of the room, looking at his back as he left, his eyes were deep.
After Wei Qizhang left the Nanfeng Courtyard, he did not leave immediately, but said somewhere in the shadows: "I have something to tell you, come to my study." ”
Xue Wuxi, who was taking a nap in the dark, heard this, and his eyebrows were slightly raised, did he know that he was here?
Seeing Wei Qizhang leave, he didn't hesitate to follow quickly.
Zhiyu came back, handed the lantern in his hand to the maid on the side, and sent everyone out.
She walked into the room, looked at Wei Ruyi, who was still in a hurry to read, and brought an extra wax lamp for her: "Reading at night is easy to hurt your eyes, Miss Ming'er will read it again." ”
"I can't sleep either." Wei Ruyi smiled lightly, something happened to Sister Yansleeve, she was still worried, and she didn't feel sleepy at all.
"Then the slave will have someone make you some almond tea." Zhiyu said with a smile.
"Don't worry, what useful things did Bai Xingke tell you?" Wei Ruyi asked her.
Zhiyu remembered what Bai Xing said, and nodded: "Bai Xing is indeed good at inquiring about the news, she actually knows every move in this house, and said that Hou Ye was poisoned this time, in fact, it was poisoned after eating the tea sent by Hou Ye's personal maid Huan Hong'er, and Hong'er went out quietly at night to see the second son, which is a matter of the past few days." ”
Zhiyu said, he couldn't believe it, if the poison was really Hong'er, and Hong'er had a close relationship with the second son, then maybe the mastermind behind it was the second son.
"Anything else?" Wei Ruyi asked again.
"Also, Master Hou was going to King Xiao's Mansion early this morning, and yesterday he asked the little servants to prepare the carriage." Zhiyu told Wei Ruyi everything Bai Xing said and didn't say, and he also became suspicious: "Miss, why did you say that it was such a coincidence, Hou Ye was going to see Xiao Wangye in the morning, why didn't Hong'er pick another time to poison?" ”
Wei Ruyi didn't understand, if it was really the second brother who did it, then why did he stop his father from seeing King Xiao?
And the words that the second brother said tonight clearly meant something, did King Xiao plan to use his father against himself?
"Tell Bai Xing to pay more attention to the movements in the second brother's courtyard." Wei Ruyi said.
Knowing that the rain should fall, I immediately went to find Bai Xing.
Wei Ruyi thought about it, and decided to ask Xue Wuxian to quietly tie up Hong'er and ask, but she didn't even see any movement after shouting a few times.
"Muyun?" Wei Ru's opinion couldn't shout that there was no trace of snow, so he changed his words.
Mu Yun quickly appeared in the dark part of the courtyard, and when he saw her, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he quickly stepped forward and lowered his eyes: "What does Madame command?" ”
"Where's the snow without a trace?"
"I was called away by the second son, but Madame has something to do, I can do it for me." Muyun Road.
Wei Ruyi looked at his drooping eyes but tense appearance, and couldn't help but tell him: "I want to ask him about the past, it's late at night, it's safe here, you go down and rest." ”
"It's good for your subordinates to stay in the dark."
"It's cold......"
"It doesn't matter." Mu Yun's tone was very resolute.
Wei Ruyi looked at his alienated and angry appearance, and only smiled: "Then if you feel tired, go and rest by yourself, you don't have to go back to me, go down." ”
"Yes." When Mu Yun left, she looked at Wei Ruyi again, she was not tall, she sat on the edge of the warm couch and smiled lightly, like a girl who had not grown up, but in her previous life, she was also so old that she killed her superiors.
Wei Ruyi watched him leave, fell on the side of the warm couch with the book, looked at the shadowy room, and slowly closed his eyes, but there was a faint sigh that was almost inaudible in the dark.
This sigh was very light, as if it was floating in the wind, Wei Ruyi subconsciously wanted to chase out of the room, but stopped before stepping out of the door.
"Who is it?" She asked.
Mu Yun immediately came out of the shadows: "What's wrong?" ”
Wei Ruyi looked at him as if he didn't realize it, her eyebrows twisted slightly, she obviously heard the sigh, but who was it?
She didn't say anything, shook her head and went back, looking around, it was still the familiar furniture in the past, she had seen all the places where people could hide, but there was no one, until Zhiyu came back, she simply washed and fell asleep with a full stomach.
Early the next morning, Wei Ruyi was woken up by a hurried knock on the door, and after Zhiyu opened the door, he rubbed his eyes: "What's the matter, it's not dawn yet......"
"Master Hou is out of breath."
Yahuan, who replied, had a slightly pale face, as if she was in a hurry, still panting.
When Zhiyu heard this, he immediately went to call Wei Ruyi.
When Wei Qizhang got up early and heard the news, he silently changed into mourning clothes.
"Childe, Hong'er asks to see you." A maid came and said.
"Let her in." Wei Ruyi's eyes were slightly cold, and after a while, Hong'er came in.
The people in the house all retreated, and Hong'er went to close the door.
Turning his head to look at Wei Qizhang, who was handsome and dashing even though he was plain, his eyes were full of love, and he chuckled: "Son, now that the matter is done, when will you fulfill the promise to the slave?" ”
"Didn't I tell you not to mention this for now?" Wei Qizhang tidied up his clothes and said lightly.
Hong'er gritted her teeth and seemed a little unwilling: "But the Hou Ye is gone, the slave is worried, the slave is no longer useful to you, and when this matter is over, what if you forget the slave and the maid?" After speaking, she slightly loosened the neckline of her clothes, twisted her waist and slowly pasted it, and her hand slowly touched Wei Qizhang's belt.
The corners of Wei Qizhang's slightly cold mouth were slightly hooked: "So, you are threatening me." ”
"Slaves don't dare, but slaves and maids also have a guarantee......"
Before she finished speaking, Wei Qizhang's hand had already tightly choked her neck and slowly lifted her whole body.
Hong'er stared in horror, and her hand kept grabbing the back of his hand, but Wei Qizhang's face did not change at all: "I have always disliked people threatening me, you should know very well." ”
"Second son......" Hong'er reluctantly begged for mercy, but Wei Qizhang didn't plan to keep her alive when she closed the door, so he kept pinching her until she breathed, and then threw her to the ground.
"Someone." Wei Qizhang's eyes turned slightly, and he called.
Immediately, a small servant came in, and when he saw Hong'er's body on the ground and the bruise on her neck, he immediately lowered his head: "Hong'er has buried Hou Ye, and the slave will arrange a small coffin." ”
Wei Qizhang saw that he was sensible, so he went out lightly.
When Wei Ruyi changed into filial piety clothes, Xue Wuxian hadn't come back yet, but Wei Qizhang came over.
"Second brother."
"It's only been a few months since my grandmother's funeral, but everything in the house is ready-made, so I won't be too busy today." Wei Qizhang said softly.
Wei Ruyi nodded, remembering that the last time her grandmother died, she even took her second aunt with her, and she couldn't help but feel a little empty.
"Childe, Miss, Third Miss is back."
There was a maid ring to report, and soon saw Wei Qingshui walking in with red eyes, and the little treasure held by the mother-in-law next to him was not as lively as before, and seemed to feel the sadness of the mother-in-law, so he only lay quietly on the mother-in-law's shoulder and did not make a sound.
"Third sister." Wei Ruyi stepped forward, Wei Qingshui couldn't hold back any longer, hugged her and cried bitterly.
She didn't know the truth about Wei Xin's death, but Wei Xin was her biological father, she first lost her mother, and now she has no father, and even her husband is gone, she has suppressed her sadness for a long time, and when she heard Wei Ruyi's sincere concern, she couldn't hold back her tears anymore.
Wei Qizhang looked at Wei Qingshui, then at Xiaobao, and stretched out his hand towards Xiaobao: "Uncle hug." ”
Xiaobao looked at the crying mother and cried too.
Wei Qizhang took him in his arms and listened to his cry, his eyes were slightly guilty. He didn't owe anyone anything, but he thought he was ashamed of his sister.
"Second brother, what did father say before he left?" Wei Qingshui finally stopped crying before he choked up and asked him.
"Father said, let our brothers and sisters live a good life." Wei Qizhang comforted softly.
Wei Qingshui nodded: "Now that my parents are gone, there are only a few of us left, so naturally we have to be fine." ”
"The eldest aunt is also about to arrive in the capital, although Changlin and Qing'er did not come back together, but the third sister just moved back to Wei Mansion to live with the eldest aunt for a while, and the eldest aunt must also be sad." Wei Ruyi pulled her and said. Although she sent a letter to ask her aunt to come back, she told her that she couldn't bring Changlin and Qing'er back. They are still young, and they are involved in the rights and wrongs of this capital, and they don't even have the ability to protect themselves.
Wei Qingshui thought of his eldest aunt, somewhat comforting.
Soon the three of them went to the front hall, after Wei Xin'er was poisoned yesterday, the housekeeper began to prepare for the funeral, not at a loss.
However, looking at this harmonious Wei Mansion, Jiang Di smiled extremely sarcastically.
"It turns out that Wei Qizhang is dealing with this king to get Wei Ruyi out." In the carriage, he sarcastically said.
"Lord Wang, the people we are stationed in the Wei Mansion were suddenly removed by Wei Ruyi's personal guards last night, do you want to rearrange them?" The guard said.
"Since Wei Qizhang has been exposed to the purpose of approaching this king, he will be eliminated if he arranges people to go in." Jiang Di said coldly.
The guard's face was fierce: "In this case, then get rid of him!" ”
Jiang Di shook his head: "If it's someone else, forget it, but he is useful to this king, and although he wants to protect Wei Ruyi, he can't tolerate Lou Yan." "Wei Qizhang came back from a station in the south, not only was he appreciated by his father, but many generals in the court were also very close to him, and what he lacked the most was soldiers.
Jiang Di looked at the plaque with the words 'Marquis of Wuning' hanging high, smiled coldly, took the bow and arrow that was placed aside, raised his hand, and the sharp arrow shot through the plaque.
Although Wei Xin is dead, there are ways to contain Wei Ruyi and Wei Qizhang.
The carriage left, and there was a commotion at the gate of the Wei Mansion that was quiet again, and many officials came to mourn one after another.
The Chen family also came today, but the second lady hurriedly came over, and after saying a few words to Wei Ruyi, she went back again, not that she didn't want to accompany Wei Ruyi, but that the Chen family was in a mess now.
Chen Fuzhong.
Old Lady Chen seemed to be particularly angry: "Just because she is innocent, you dislike her!" Chen Yunchai also blamed himself for ruining his innocence, and now, he really doesn't want to see other good girls disliked because of this.
The second lady's face was slightly pale: "Father, it's really not just because of this, but ......"
"The others are all excuses, you were very happy when the emperor gave you the marriage, but now it has changed?" Old lady Chen is extremely stubborn now, the second lady knows what he is stubborn about, he must regret that he failed to protect Chen Yunchai at the beginning, so now this regret is all on Princess Luoning, but ...... Princess Luoning, she doesn't like men!
The second lady was so anxious that her forehead was about to sweat, but the old lady just didn't listen, and he didn't listen to what the second lady said.
Chen Youcai stood outside and listened quietly, shook his head slightly, and went back to the room to see Luo Ning.
Luo Ning refused to see anyone for several days after that incident, and it was not until today that she heard the news of Ruyi's father's death, and she was finally willing to see anyone.
"Luo Ning, do you like to drink flower tea, Ruyi created it yourself, it tastes good, I asked someone to make some for you." Chen Youcai walked in with a smile, and didn't care whether Luo Ning listened or not, and said to himself: "I like to add honey to it, do you want to add a little?" ”
Luo Ning sat on the edge of the bed, her long black hair was all scattered behind her, and when she saw Chen Youcai coming, she immediately lowered her eyes like a dodge.
Chen Youcai saw her like this, and his footsteps stopped: "Luo Ning, I'm not coming in, I'll just talk to you here, it's so cold outside, or your room is warm." ”
Chen Youcai sat down on the warm couch on the side, asked someone to add an extra charcoal brazier, and asked someone to hug the piano, and said with a smile: "I heard that you are good at playing the piano, and I am also very interested, anyway, we are bored to sit, why don't you teach me to play the piano, I ......."
"Chen Gongzi." Luo Ning smiled lightly, his eyes were slightly wet, looking at his appearance of trying to make himself happy, his heart warmed slightly: "You go to Shamu, I heard that you have a misunderstanding because of me." ”
"I didn't bother to look for that little witch." Chen Youcai raised his hand and plucked it, and the strings sounded softly, making a beautiful sound.
Luo Ning turned her head, holding the hand warmer that Yahuan stuffed into her hand, as if she was thinking about something, and said softly: "Actually, that night, I was not really defiled, when you came in, those two people fainted, in fact, Sha Mu came in before and knocked them unconscious, they didn't really ...... What about me. ”
Chen Youcai didn't believe it, obviously she looked like she really wanted to die at that time, and now when she said this, her expression was really sad.
"Okay, teach me to play the piano, let's play a simple one, just "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix". Chen Youcai said with a smile.
Luo Ning Wan'er turned his head to look at him: "Chen Gongzi likes Shamu very much, right?" ”
Chen Youcai sneered: "Whoever likes such a little witch, who kills people without blinking, she will kill them no matter whether they are good or bad." ”
"That's because of Shamu's father...... The patriarch of the Niwa family taught her like this, the people of the Niwa family, the people who used it to practice medicine, were all on death row. The first time Shamu killed someone was when she was six years old, and his father forced her to kill a little girl who had been in because of the shouzhu, and that child had been very good friends with me and her. Luo Ning said softly, there was no condemnation or complacency in his hands that were not stained with blood, only pity.
Chen Youcai never thought that the little witch would have such a past.
"Luo Ning, can't you lie to me just to match me and her, and see if she is just as murderous and unblinking now?" Chen Youcai said.
"She's used to killing, or she's been numb for a long time. But she has repeatedly poisoned you but never hurt you, which shows that she really likes you. Ronin smiled softly at him.
Chen Youcai's eyebrows twisted slightly, after thinking about it, he put down the piano and turned his head to go out, Luo Ning opened her mouth, her throat was a little choked, she reluctantly swallowed, and then said: "There is a bamboo house in the forest outside the city, she likes to be there, you go there, you will definitely find her." ”
Chen Youcai paused, turned around and hugged Luo Ning tightly: "From now on, you are my own sister, if there is anything, my brother will definitely cover you!" After speaking, he rubbed the broken hair on Luo Ning's forehead before walking out quickly.
Luo Ning felt his warm embrace and left, stunned, why did her heart beat so fast?
"Chen Gongzi." She let out a soft voice, tears finally rolling down her eyes. She's still not worthy, she's already dirty.
"Princess, are you alright, slave ......"
"Serve me up, I want to meet Mrs. Guoshi." Luo Ning said softly.
The maid looked at her with pity: "Princess, haven't you let go of the things back then?" ”
Luo Ning heard her worry and smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine." "That incident back then was the nightmare of her life, maybe only by dying, can she completely forget it.
The second lady was still worried about Chen Lao's stubbornness, so she saw Yahuan hurriedly running over and gave her a brocade box.
"What is this?"
"It was sent by Princess Luoning, saying that you have been tired for the past few days, and here are very rare pink pearls in Fusang." Yahuan Road.
The second lady still remembered that a few days ago, she did occasionally mention that she wanted to meet Fusang's unique pink pearls, but she didn't expect Luo Ning to remember it after encountering this.
"I'll go see her......"
"She's gone." Yahuan remembered Luo Ning's way of telling them not to disturb the lady and master, and her tone softened: "The princess said that if she causes trouble to the Chen family, she will enter the palace tomorrow and withdraw from the marriage, and then she will leave Beijing directly and return to Fusang." ”
The second lady's surprised mouth opened for a long time before closing, this girl is really a considerate and kind and generous girl, if she likes men, it would be good, only blame her talent for not having this blessing.
When Wei Ru saw Luo Ning, she put on a light makeup on her face, covering all the tiredness and sadness, leaving only a warm smile.
"Mrs. National Teacher, thank you for your willingness to save me." Luo Ning solemnly saluted her, Wei Ruyi looked at her like this, and didn't know how to comfort her.
Luo Ning was afraid that Wei Ruyi would be embarrassed, and said: "I heard that Ling Zun mourned, and Mrs. still has to mourn." Presumably, Madame is also very busy, so I will not stay much, but there is one more thing to give to you, and when I leave Beijing, someone will send it to Madame. ”
Wei Ruyi looked at her when everything was arranged, and was even worried that she would commit suicide.
"Princess, what happened that night ......"
"I'm fine." Luo Ning lowered her eyes, her lips were still smiling shallowly, but she was trying to soothe her emotions, and when her emotions finally stabilized, she said goodbye to Wei Ruyi.
Looking at the back of her leaving, Zhiyu felt distressed: "Miss, Princess Luo Ning is really pitiful." ”
"yes." Wei Ruyi said softly, so many poor people in the world are women.
She glanced at Zhiyu, who seemed to be ignorant, and smiled lightly, hoping that God would treat other people better, such as her sister Yansleeve.
Chen Yansleeve has been sitting in the room for a whole day, sitting like this without eating or drinking, and the girls dare not persuade him.
"Princess, please save Sister Huaxun, if you don't go, the prince will beat her to death." Chen Yansleeve's other bridal maid ran in quickly crying, and Chen Yansleeve's eyes that had been drooping finally moved.
"Princess, don't you even believe Sister Huaxun, she really didn't push Aunt Yu." Huajian cried and begged her: "Princess, for the sake of Sister Huaxun serving you for so many years, save her." ”
"Where are the people?"
Chen Yansleeve finally opened his mouth, and his voice was hoarse. She subconsciously touched her lower abdomen, but remembered that she was not pregnant, and the doctor had 'misdiagnosed', and the doctor also pointed out that Hua Xun gave him the silver and asked him to say so.
Hua Xun will not betray herself, she believes that what she is disappointed about is that after so many misunderstandings, the prince treats herself not more and more trusting, but more and more suspicious.
"Just in the front yard, Master Guoshi and Master Chen are also there, and Aunt Yu is also ......," Hua Jian wiped her tears and said.
Chen Yansleeve got up and walked towards the front yard.
At that time, Hua Xun was tied to a bench and was being beaten by the board, while Yu Rouyi was sitting on a soft stool under the corridor on the side, and three or four mothers-in-law were carefully serving.
When Lou Yan saw Chen Yansleeve coming, he knew that it was not good, and glanced at Jiang Yan: "Are you sure you want to do this?" ”
"Xiao Yan, didn't you say that if you want to achieve great things, you can't be informal?" Jiang Yan didn't look at Chen Yan's sleeves, he was afraid that he would see it, so he relented.
"If it were me, I wouldn't be so right. This time, I am also entrusted by Ruyi, you can carry out your plan, but you can't hurt Chen Yansleeve. After Lou Yan finished speaking, he glanced at Yu Rouyi, who was sitting under the porch, and turned to leave.
Chen Jian didn't make a sound with a dark face, his fists clenched tightly.
Chen Yansleeve came over, looked at the guards who were still ruthless, and said in a slightly cold tone: "Stop." ”
"Princess, this is the prince's order." The guard replied to her, and then went down ruthlessly, Chen Yan's sleeve was slightly tight, grabbed the guard's arm with one hand, and swept him to the ground with his foot, the action was done in one go, very neat.
After disposing of the guards, Chen Yansleeve looked at Jiang Yan and saluted: "Since the prince doesn't believe in the concubine, then the concubine should be punished for this punishment." ”
"Did the princess admit it?" Jiang Yan's hand behind him tightened slightly.
"This matter has nothing to do with the concubine, and the concubine believes in her maid more. If the prince does not believe it, he can punish the concubine, and the concubine will never complain. Chen Yansleeve's tone was cold, and she still had a glimmer of hope for Jiang Yan. She prayed in her heart that he would never lose this glimmer of hope for herself.
Yu Rouyi also walked over with her stomach, held Jiang Yan's hand, and said softly: "Your Highness, since the princess knows that she is wrong, forget it." It's also to blame Yi'er, if it weren't for Yi'er's growing belly, the princess would never have thought of faking her pregnancy to compete for favor. ”
Chen Yan's palms tightened slightly, and his eyes stared at her sharply: "If I were you, I wouldn't deliberately provoke!" ”
"Princess, the concubine has no intention of provoking...... And that day the flower girl pushed me, and I was careless, so I don't blame her. Yu Rouyi hid behind Jiang Yan as if she was timid.
Chen Jian looked at the appearance of this white lotus, and was so angry that the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he said directly to Chen Yanchou: "Sleeve, follow me back to Chen's mansion, if your father knows that you are being played like this by a cheap concubine, he will be so angry that he will slash her!" ”
Yu Rouyi's face was slightly pale, but she looked at Chen Jian with teary eyes, and saluted him: "General Chen, Rouyi has no relatives to rely on, but Rouyi has no ill will towards the princess, and please ask the general to spare Rouyi this time for the sake of Rouyi being pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood." ”
Jiang Yan only looked at Chen Yansleeve, looking at the hope in her eyes, deliberately turned her eyes away, took Yu Rouyi's hand, and said coldly: "This king is your dependence, this king is here, see who dares to hurt you!" ”
"Lord Wang, this is ......" Chen Jian saw that he was wholeheartedly protecting this cheap concubine, but Jiang Yan only interrupted him: "General Chen pays attention to his identity!" Now for the sake of you being the princess's uncle, this king can not worry about you, you can go back, this king's family affairs, no one needs to worry about it! ”
Chen Jian was so angry that his face turned black.
Chen Yansleeve also felt as if a knife was inserted into his heart: "Lord Wang......"
"The princess also needs time to reflect if she wants to come, General Chen is also so angry now, you can follow General Chen back to Chen's mansion to live." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he took Yu Rouyi and was about to leave.
Although Yu Rouyi was surprised that he was going to drive Chen Yansleeve away so easily, it didn't matter, the prince was warm when he held her hand, and he was also protecting her.
Huajian looked at Chen Yansleeve with tears in his eyes, Chen Yansleeve didn't say a word, and without waiting for Chen Jian to speak, he asked someone to simply pack up his clothes and go back to Chen's house.
Jiang Yan drove Chen Yansleeve home, and as soon as Wei Ruyi heard it, he was so angry that he almost didn't eat.
"What kind of confusion is he making, Sister Yansleeve, she is clearly not that kind of person!" Wei Ruyi was so angry that Lou Yan held down her who was about to run away and said, "Eat first." ”
"No, I can't eat it."
"Xiao Yan has his own plan." Lou Yan looked at her lightly: "Can you eat it now?" ”
Wei Ruyi looked incredulous: "Then he still didn't take Sister Yansleeve seriously, if he had a plan, why couldn't he tell Sister Yansleeve and share it with her?" Sister Yansleeve is not an ordinary woman, she is a female general on the battlefield, how can he ......?"
"It seems that you are going to reason with Xiao Yan?" Lou Yan looked at her with a smile.
Wei Ruyi was only so angry that he was angry: "I don't have that kind of effort, now that the funeral in the Wei Mansion is over, the eldest aunt has to come back." I still have to go see my eldest uncle, I don't know if he's better, and Sister Yansleeve......"
Wei Ruyi muttered, but when Meng Chang was mentioned, Lou Yan's eyes deepened, but he didn't say anything, stared at her and ate, and then went out.
Approaching the sacrificial ceremony, the emperor has not yet decided on the choice of the sacrifice, and the prince has been completely quiet recently because of the successive mistakes, and he thinks that the prince's goals may have been shifted.
However, because of the approaching sacrificial ceremony, Wei Ruyi was able to take a breath for the time being.
As soon as Wei Xin's funeral was over, she immediately went to the Chen Mansion to find Chen Yanchou, and when she saw her, she had been sick for several days.
"Why didn't you tell me."
Wei Ruyi was annoyed, and Huajian only choked up and said: "Miss won't let us tell you, not only you, she originally insisted that no one would tell her, but since she came back from the palace, she didn't eat or drink much for several days, and she couldn't bear the illness anymore." ”
Wei Ruyi quickly walked into the room, the room was still smoked with light incense, and through the bead curtain, he saw Chen Yansleeve who was drinking medicine.
"Ruyi, you're here."
Chen Yansleeve saw her and chuckled, but her pale face and bloodshot eyes made people feel distressed when she looked at her.
Wei Ruyi checked her pulse after coming over, and determined that it was the evil qi caused by excessive sadness, and she couldn't wait to go to the fat beating Jiang Yan, and she also blamed herself, if it was rumored that she was pregnant, she didn't care about any taboos or not, just confirm it in person.
"Why doesn't my sister eat well, but it's not appetizing, I asked Uncle Fang to make it every day and send it, and asked him to cook all the signature dishes of Laifulou." Wei Ruyi said.
Chen Yansleeve laughed: "Where is it so troublesome, I just can't eat it, but now that I see you coming, my appetite is better, and I will definitely not eat less." ”
Wei Ruyi saw that she was still here and forced a smile, remembering that Brother Yan said that Jiang Yan had other plans, so he only sent the maids in the house down to tell her this, but he didn't expect Chen Yansleeve to be very calm: "I guessed." ”
"Guessed?"
"He doesn't like Yu Rouyi, I can see it, and he told me that he wants that position, so it's even more impossible to lose his temper with his second uncle for Yu Rouyi. The only possibility is what he's planning. After Chen Yansleeve finished speaking, he looked at Wei Ruyi with a smile, but he couldn't hide the tears in his eyes: "Do you know, the only thing I'm sad about is that he doesn't believe me, and would rather act in such an indifferent scene alone than tell me the truth and let me share it with him." ”
Wei Ruyi understood her discomfort, hugged her gently, and listened to her go from a sobbing to a sad cry, and her heart was very sour.
"Ruyi ——!"
Shouting noisily, Wei Ruyi took out a handkerchief and wiped his tears for Chen Yan's sleeve, before turning his head and seeing Chen Youcai with a red face and Sha Mu who followed him and replied shyly.
Wei Ruyi looked weird, didn't these two people tear their faces?
Chen Youcai looked at Wei Ruyi's face and smiled: "Don't think nonsense, I have already told Sha Mu that I will marry her one day, and you will have to call her sister-in-law in the future." ”
Wei Ruyi: "......"
She looked at Sha Mu, Brother Yan said that Sha Mu was doing things for King Xiao, so now that she is good with her talented brother, does she also have other purposes?
Sha Mu seemed to see through Wei Ruyi's thoughts, and said, "You said that there is a good place to enjoy the snow in the backyard of Chen's Mansion, if Mrs. Lou doesn't mind, can you take me to see it?" ”
Chen Youcai squeezed his eyes at Wei Ruyi.
Wei Ruyi: "Naturally. She got up and looked at Chen Yansleeve worriedly, and Chen Yansleeve only comforted: "I'm fine, you can go." ”
Wei Ruyi then looked at the happy Chen Youcai: "You can't be arguing about Sister Yansleeve here." ”
"Don't worry, I'm quiet, I can't make a noise." Chen Youcai booed.
The corners of Wei Ruyi's mouth twitched, even if this guy was going to marry a daughter-in-law, he still couldn't change his temperament as a middle two.
Coming out of the room, Wei Ruyi and Sha Mu walked forward side by side, and Zhiyu followed from afar.
When he arrived at the lake pavilion in the back garden, Wei Ruyi asked someone to bring a charcoal brazier and a hand warmer, and asked everyone to retreat ten meters away.
"Miss Shamu has something to say to me?" Wei Ruyi held the hand warmer and looked at her with a faint smile, Sha Mu took out a thin book from his sleeve: "It records the process of the Niwa family developing the antidote to the poison for so many years, if you take it, it may be useful." ”
Wei Ruyi's whole person sat up straight, she took it and flipped through it, it did record in detail the process of various people who had been poisoned and tried various medicinal materials.
"I promised to be talented, and after I got married, I won't do the same things as before." Sha Mu smiled lightly: "Even if poison is used in the future, it will only be used on the heinous bad guys." ”
Her smile was very real, which made Wei Ruyi a little in a trance, did she really change her ways? Just because of her talented brother, she is willing to give up everything in the Niwa family?
"Don't worry, no matter if I can do it in the future, but now what I say is true, and what I give you is also true." Sha Mu said frankly, and it is true that she likes Chen Youcai at the moment, and she likes it very much.
Wei Ruyi accepted the scroll before saying, "Then King Xiao ......"
"You really know, but Chen Youcai still doesn't know, right?" Shamu asked her, a hint of worry in her eyes.
Wei Ruyi: "I don't know. ”
"That's good, so I don't have to go through the trouble of explaining it to him. But since I'm talking about it, I might as well tell you one more thing. Do you know Lou Ruo's true identity? ”
Wei Ruyi really didn't think about it, and Lou Ruo was dead, so she didn't feel the need to know.
"It doesn't matter......"
"You may not know each other, but your eldest uncle must be very familiar with it, and your eldest uncle and her have an old relationship." Sha Mu was very enthusiastic about this past: "Although I don't know how far their past has developed, it can be seen that this past is not simple. ”
"Then she's your sister......"
"Auntie." Sha Mu mentioned it, with disdain in his eyes: "It's a member of the Niwa family, and he has fallen so willingly, but if he dies, he will die, but he is the one who helped her disguise and hide her identity, but he is a character." ”
"Who is it?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it...... Or maybe I haven't seen her face, but listening to the voice, she should be older. Sha Mu turned his gaze into the distance, the scenery of the Chen family is good, especially here, it is impossible to hide people around the Huxin Pavilion, even if the old woman sends someone to stare at her, it is impossible to hear what she is saying.
Wei Ruyi remembered that when Brother Yan mentioned that person, his eyes were very complicated, and he was obviously someone he knew.
But she didn't pay much attention to Lou Ruo's identity.
Sha Mu saw that he was almost done, so he got up: "Don't worry, your man is powerful, only he calculates people, but no one can calculate him." But if you really want to know what secrets he is hiding, you might as well think about who poisoned him so deadly back then, and why he was poisoned. With that, Shamu turned around and left.
Wei Ruyi looked at her back and sat in the pavilion for a long time, until someone from the National Teacher's Mansion came to pick her up, and she got into the carriage in a trance.
After returning safely to the National Teacher's Mansion, Mu Ying, who had been recuperating from her injuries, soon came to see her.
"Miss, in the past few days of your absence, something has happened in the house."
"What's the matter?" Wei Ruyi said strangely, Mu Yun didn't say anything, she wanted to comfort the third sister again, so she didn't care about the National Teacher's Mansion all the time.
Mu Ying limped to her side on crutches, and said in a low voice: "There is a ghost in the house, the secret letter that the national teacher put in the study was found to have been quietly moved, and the news inside should have been leaked, and the national teacher has not been back for several nights because of this." ”
"Inner ghost." Wei Ruyi couldn't figure it out, all the people in this mansion were Brother Yan's people, counting the dowry maids he brought, they should all be trustworthy, how could they be ghosts?
"Madam, Lingxi asks to see you."
There was a maid outside.
Wei Ruyi thought of Lingxi, and immediately called someone to invite him in.
Lingxi came over, so he saluted and said, "If Madam doesn't mind, can you let me take Mu Ying and Zhiyu to ask a few words?" ”
"They?" Wei Ruyi paused, but seeing Lingxi's indifferent appearance, he didn't want to have any misunderstanding with her again, so he only looked at Mu Ying Zhiyu: "You guys go with Lingxi." ”
"Yes." Mu Ying didn't like Lingxi was about to be written on her face, and Zhiyu also wanted to restrain herself, but she couldn't.
Wei Ruyi sighed faintly in his heart, blaming himself for being spoiled by them, and now he can't even hide something.
Lingxi seemed to be unaware, and quickly took the two of them out.
A maid brought hot water to wash Wei Ruyi, and by the way, she also took the posts sent by various prefectures in the past few days, some got married, some gave birth to children, and some had birthdays.
Wei Ruyi looked at the names he didn't know on the posts, and smiled helplessly, he had a lot of funerals this year, they were all happy days and dared to invite him, and he didn't know whether to say that they had big hearts, or that the friendship with Mrs. Guoshi was really tempting.
Looking at it, she didn't see Jiang Wangfu, she felt strange, Sister Hu was scheduled to get married at the end of the year, how could she not invite herself?
"Isn't there a Jiang Wangfu?"
"Miss Hu just came yesterday, and after the slaves and maids said that you were still in the Wei Mansion, she went back, saying that she would come back in a few days and invite you personally." The maid replied with a smile.
Wei Ruyi finally felt that there was something heartwarming, and after washing, he collapsed on the bed, thinking about one thing after another in his mind, Sha Mu said that the eldest uncle and Lou Ruo had a past, but the eldest uncle has not mentioned it so far, is he embarrassed to mention it to his junior, or is there something else hidden?
Thinking about it, Wei Ruyi fell asleep.
Sleeping until midnight, Wei Ruyi felt a little pain in her head, as if the wound had been uncovered, but she wanted to wake up but seemed to be unable to wake up, something was pulling her in her dream, so she slept groggily all night, and when she got up early the next day to eat, she vomited before the breakfast was eaten in her stomach.
