Chapter 121: The forged childhood sweetheart, go to the incense together
Outside the house, a maid raised the door curtain, and the eldest lady hurriedly entered the house, and before Du Wei could give a salute, she stepped forward and took her hand and looked her up and down carefully.
After a while, he spoke: "Wei'er, can the prince of the Southern King have ...... Embarrassed for you? ”
"Nope." Du Wei said calmly.
The villain in his heart held his chin with great disdain: It's no wonder if there is none!
"The daughter took him to the wing room and returned, and the mother didn't have to worry."
Not only did he hug it, but he also stole the incense.
Mrs. Du breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's okay, but it scares me." As he spoke, he pulled Du Wei to sit on the bed together, and talked about what happened to Governor Qian and Master Du just now.
Du Wei quickly understood the reason, and sure enough, as she guessed, Governor Qian had served under Feng Duhan when he was a general, and she didn't know what kind of means Feng Duhan used, so she actually let Governor Qian willingly come to the door to recognize Du Wei as her niece.
Although it was a pretend, Governor Qian praised Du Wei a lot, and mentioned to Master Du that Du Wei and Du Yifan had privately "gifted" before, and Master Du only then realized that Hengfeng had avoided a disaster because of them.
Governor Qian also admired Du Yifan very much, and even said that if he wanted to take the path of official career, he could let him follow him, and it was better to have someone to lead than to touch the dark by himself, which everyone knew well, but when he asked Du Yifan in person, he refused without hesitation.
Du Wei was a little surprised, she knew her eldest brother's talent, if strictly speaking, Du Yifan was not inferior to the second young master Du Zixi.
"Such a great opportunity...... It's a pity. Du Wei said regretfully.
The eldest lady smiled and said, "Do you know why he politely rejected Lord Qian?" ”
Du Wei didn't know why.
The eldest lady smiled and pointed at her nose and said, "Your eldest brother wants to earn a dowry of ten miles of red makeup for you to support the dignity of the Du Mansion, no matter who you marry in the future, you must let them not underestimate you!" ”
Du Wei only felt that her nose was a little sour, "Big brother is really ......"
Looking at her daughter's crimson cheeks, the smile on the eldest lady's face suddenly faded, and she said tentatively: "Wei'er, do you like the prince of Nanwang?" ”
Du Wei almost bit her tongue and said hurriedly: "Mother! How could you think that? ”
The eldest lady said worriedly: "Today, Lord Qian told your father that your adoptive parents used to work under the prince of Nanwang, and you became acquainted with him when you were eight years old, and he watched you grow up, Wei'er, why didn't you tell Wei Niang before, do you know how worried Wei Niang is, for fear that you will make him unhappy, if you hurt you......"
The eldest lady chattered a lot, but Du Wei was like being struck by lightning, and there was only one sentence left in her ears: You have known him since you were eight years old...... He watched you grow up......
Mud Girl! Is this to fake the rhythm of childhood sweethearts? The villain in Du Wei's heart rose up.
The eldest lady was still not at ease after saying this, and continued: "Wei'er, for my mother to know what you think, although the prince of Nanwang is handsome and chic, and his bearing is extraordinary, his body is ...... I've heard that it's incurable, and it's elusive, if you really have this mind......"
Before the eldest lady finished speaking, Du Wei jumped up suddenly, hugged the eldest lady and said coquettishly: "Mother! What nonsense are you talking about! I've only been back for a few days, and you just want to marry me off so much? ”
The eldest lady smiled and patted her on the back, "Of course my mother is reluctant to marry you off, and in the future, with the uncle of Lord Qian behind your back, my mother can rest assured, no matter who marries you, I won't dare to bully you." ”
The more the eldest lady spoke, the more excited she became, and as a result, she stayed in Jufu Pavilion that night, and for a whole night, the two of them slept together, Du Wei was only dizzy by the eldest lady, and the next morning she got up with a pair of panda eyes, and the distressed eldest lady did not dare to come to her again the next night to talk to her.
Mrs. Du also specially sent Fang's mother to come over that day to inform her that she didn't need to go over to say hello.
Du Wei knew that this old lady must have been shocked by Governor Qian and the prince of Nanwang at night, the eldest lady of Du Mansion was recognized as a niece by Governor Qian, although she was a relative who couldn't be beaten with eight poles, but this was enough to satisfy the vanity of Old Lady Du.
In the future, even in front of those ladies of the Sun Mansion, they will never be ashamed of themselves because of the other party's title of imperial businessman.
What about the Imperial Merchants? To put it bluntly, she is still a businessman, even if Sun Yuecian, the eldest lady of the Sun Mansion, is married, she is just a businesswoman, but Du Wei is different.
Depending on which mansion she marries, others will look up to her, and even with Du Mansion, the tide will rise......
Du Wei has gradually figured out the thoughts of this old lady Du.
As long as it can bring benefits and benefits to Du Mansion, Old Lady Du will naturally protect her, and those who hinder the reputation of Du Mansion, even if they were held in the palm of her hand before, will be trampled under her feet sooner or later, like dirt.
Qinghe was trampled on by the prince of Nanwang in front of everyone this time, and when she was carried back, she only had half a breath left, if it weren't for Feng Duhan's order to "live well", Mrs. Du originally wanted her to fend for herself.
After seeing Qinghe's injury, the doctor who invited him shook his head and said a few times: "It's wasted, it's wasted." ”
When the second lady heard about this, she also rushed over, kneeling and crying and begging the old lady to save her biological mother, but was reprimanded by the old lady Du in public, and ordered someone to take her back to the courtyard and take strict care.
The news of Qinghe spread, and all the people in the house were respectful to Du Wei, and even the maids and mothers-in-law of Jufu Pavilion followed suit. When they went to the outer courtyard on an errand, no matter which courtyard they saw, they had to be polite, but they were so beautiful that they came back and talked about themselves from time to time that they had followed the right master.
Du Wei didn't like this kind of limelight, so Canglan privately warned them not to be proud of it, so there were no more people in the courtyard who were gathering to discuss, and Du Wei suddenly sobered up a lot.
That night, the eldest young master Du Yifan specially came to Jufu Pavilion, and Du Wei asked anxiously when he saw him: "How is the situation in the Sun Mansion?" ”
Du Yifan smiled slightly, picked up the fragrant tea she made and drank it all, "Chen Si's body was hung outside the gate of Sun's mansion, and no one dared to touch it until night, and even the door of the mansion was not opened for a day. ”
"It's hard for them to walk away for a day." Du Wei hid her smile and continued to ask: "Do you have any news from the owners of the cloth houses who have been sealed down?" ”
Du Yifan shook his head, "Because of Chen Si's matter, Sun Fu went to report to the official, but as a result, the prince of Nanwang branched out to the yamen in advance, so no one paid attention to this matter at all, and even the bosses of those cloth villages did not want to get involved in this bad luck, so they didn't show up today." ”
"Those people have been relying on the big tree of Sun Mansion, big brother, do you say that if those people hear rumors that Sun Mansion has offended the prince of Nanwang...... So what will happen if the government plans to close those shops for a while? Du Wei's eyes were shining, and she had a wicked smile on her face.
Du Yifan touched her head dotingly: "You have a lot of ghost ideas." ”
Du Wei said happily: "It's like tying them to the stake rack, blindfolded, although there is no open flame under their feet, but there are people next to them constantly shouting to light a fire, they will be scared to death sooner or later." ”
So, on the second day, rumors about Sun's offense to the prince of Nanwang quickly spread in Liangzhou City.
Outside the gate of Sun's Mansion, Chen Si's body was frozen like a dead fish, and when the north wind blew, the hula swayed, and the entire street was left unpassed.
However, there was a long queue outside the back door of the Sun Mansion, and those shopkeepers came to the door one after another, begging the Sun Mansion to give him an idea.
On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Mrs. Du took Du Wei and the third lady Du Lingyan to Wanfu Temple to offer incense, passing by the adjacent street next to Sun's mansion.
Du Wei lifted the curtain and looked out, only to see Mrs. Sun of the Sun Mansion taking Sun Yuecia into the carriage, and it looked like she was going to incense.
Du Wei couldn't help but sigh again and again in her heart, she thought that she could get quiet when she went to the temple, but she didn't expect that the trees wanted to be quiet and the wind didn't stop, it seemed that there was no quiet anywhere.
