Chapter 394: Returning to the House to Provocate
"Mother is willing to believe that such nonsense is your business, and I am stating an objective fact, whether it is fornication or not, it is not Wei Qingwan's one-sided words that can be decided. I reminded my mother that something was wrong, and that there was nothing I could do if she didn't want to think about it. Wei Ruo said with a cold face.
"What if something goes wrong? This is the will of the Holy Lord, can my Wei family still resist and disobey the will? The Yun clan asked Wei Ruo rhetorically.
Without waiting for Wei Ruo to reply, Yun continued: "You don't know what's at stake? You don't know that my Wei family should not be involved in the dispute between the princes? I know the twists and turns better than you do! ”
"Since my mother knows, then I don't have much to say."
After Wei Ruo finished speaking, he said goodbye to the Yun family: "Don't disturb the mother's rest, the daughter will retreat first." ”
Wei Ruo turned around and left, and the Yun clan looked at it coldly.
Cui Ping whispered on the side: "Madam, the eldest lady is also kind. Madame also said just now that this marriage is also a troublesome matter for the Wei family, which is the same thing that the eldest lady is worried about. ”
Yun said: "Her heart for the Wei family is right, but she doesn't have any good intentions for Wanwan, she can't see Wanwan good, knowing that Wanwan is a side concubine, she won't think about how this will benefit Wanwan who is deep in gossip, she will only think about what kind of implication the Wei family will be affected by this." ”
After a pause, Yun Shi said again: "Also, she came to question me like this because she thought I didn't know what was at stake, why?" Now that she has grown up and has gained a good reputation outside, she thinks that I, the housewife, are not as smart and scheming as her? You're going to dictate to me! ”
Cui Ping lowered his head, not daring to say more.
Wei Ruo didn't ask any useful information from the Yun Clan, so he went back to Listening to Songyuan first.
For such a big thing as marriage, there will inevitably be a lot of movement, and you will definitely be able to ask for news if you ask elsewhere.
In the afternoon, if Wei wanted to go to Yuan's mansion, he might be able to get more information by asking the well-informed Mrs. Yuan.
So after lunch, Wei Ruo and Xiumei went out and went to Yuan's mansion.
Wei Ruo came to Yuan's Mansion today to build a reservoir.
The autumn harvest and the imperial court rewarded gave the government and the local noble squires great confidence, and after Yuan Zhengqin's discussion with the government officials and local power, it was decided to put the idea of building a reservoir that Wei Ruo had mentioned before on the agenda.
For this reason, the Taizhou government plans to absorb another group of refugees and arrange for them to engage in the construction of reservoir projects.
This is to carry out the cash-for-work method proposed by Wei Ruo to the end. If this matter can be done well, it can not only help the victims of the disaster, stabilize the people's minds, but also create income and benefit the people.
Wei Ruo needed to roughly confirm the general scope of the reservoir construction according to the map, and then go to the site to make drawings and determine more detailed construction arrangements.
This is a big project, and Wei Yao has been busy with it for a while.
Before discussing the matter with Madame Yuan's think tank, Wei Ruo first went to meet Madame Yuan and asked her about the marriage.
Mrs. Yuan had already expected that Wei Ruo would come to ask her about this: "As far as I know, this time not only the marriage of the six princes has been decided, but also the six princes and the seventh princes have been decided, and the time is set on the eighth day of the lunar month. The wedding day of the six princes will be arranged in the second half of next year, and they will marry the main concubine and the side concubine at the same time; The marriage of the Seven Princes has not yet been decided. ”
"Does that lady know who the concubine of the six princes is, and why did she choose my sister as the side concubine?" Wei Ruo asked.
"The concubine is the concubine of the Qi family, everyone is not surprised by this arrangement, as for the side concubine will determine your sister, no one knows the reason for this."
"But if you think about it carefully, your sister's identity is also in line with the identity of being a side concubine to the sixth prince, the main concubine is the concubine of the Qi family, so the identity of the side concubine naturally can't be too high, the background of the Zhongyi Bofu and your father's current official rank are just right."
"I'm a little puzzled, why did I choose your sister instead of you, if I were Concubine Qi, I would definitely care about you instead of your sister, after all, you are all famous in front of the emperor."
"But maybe it's because you're named in front of the emperor that the emperor deliberately doesn't decide you."
Mrs. Yuan analyzed with Wei Ruo and told Wei Ruo her thoughts without reservation.
"Thank you, ma'am, I see." Wei Ruodao.
Mrs. Yuan took Wei Ruo's hand and patted it lightly twice: "Sister Ruo'er doesn't have to worry, since it is a holy marriage, it is not your Wei family who chooses to stand in line, and it is not your Wei family who took the initiative to get involved." ”
Wei Ruo nodded: "That's a good thing to say, but I'm afraid that someone in my family will use this as a bridge." ”
"Fortunately, your father is a good official who is dedicated to the people, and he probably won't want to get involved in these struggles, so put your heart in your stomach." Mrs. Yuan comforted.
Wei Ruo nodded: "Madame, don't worry, these things won't affect me, don't worry about the reservoir, I will do my best." ”
After Wei Ruo finished talking with Mrs. Yuan, he went to the council hall to discuss business with others.
Wait until dusk, Wei Ruo will return to the general's mansion.
When Wei Ruo's carriage stopped at the door, another carriage from the palace also arrived at the school captain's mansion.
After Wei Ruo got out of the car, he saw that the people in the house had moved the pestle to the carriage and waited respectfully.
The person who came out of the carriage first was Cui He, she lifted the curtain of the carriage, and then Wei Qingwan leaned out from inside.
Dressed in a fairy goose-yellow dress, her hair is pulled up, and she is embellished with a hosta.
The person looked a little thinner, but his complexion looked very good, and his face was full of red light.
Cui He and another maid stepped forward to help Wei Qingwan and carefully helped Wei Qingwan out of the carriage.
After getting out of the car, Wei Qingwan raised her head and looked at Wei Ruo.
Seeing Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan was not in a hurry, her face was calm and even a little more smiling.
She walked up to Wei Ruo unhurriedly and blessed slightly: "I've seen my sister." ”
Wei Ruo didn't answer.
Wei Qingwan looked at Wei Ruo and continued: "My sister knows that my sister doesn't like my sister to come back to the house, but there is no way, in the next year, my sister has to prepare for the marriage, and there is a lot of inconvenience in Zhuangzi, so I have to go back to the house." ”
"But sister, please rest assured, when my sister gets married, there will be only one young lady in the house, my sister, and no one will fight with my sister anymore."
"Although the elders and young are orderly, it stands to reason that my sister married before my sister, but now it is a holy marriage, and it is slightly different, so I have to wronged my sister, I hope my sister will not resent my sister because of this."
