Under Wei Qingwan's eager expectant gaze, Wei Yichen stretched out his hand.

Seeing that his hand grabbed the handle of the food box, Wei Qingwan was overjoyed.

But the scene that followed made Wei Qingwan's expression instantly stiffen and freeze.

Wei Yichen straightforwardly threw the food box into the pool next to him.

With a "poof", accompanied by a splash, the food box sank into the water along with the osmanthus cake.

Wei Qingwan looked into the pool with a pale face, and then Wei Yichen's cold voice sounded in her ears.

"You should be glad you have a royal marriage contract."

After Wei Yichen finished speaking, he ignored Wei Qingwan, who was stunned, and left quickly.

Not far ahead, Wei Ruo happened to witness this scene.

She didn't come with anyone on purpose, but she just happened to run into her.

Wei Yichen stopped when he passed by Wei Ruo and looked down at Wei Ruo.

Neither of them spoke.

After a moment of silence, Wei Yichen continued to walk away.

Since Wei Yichen's high school meeting, Wei Ruo has never taken the initiative to find Wei Yichen, nor has he taken the initiative to say hello to him.

This time they met, Wei Ruo didn't open this mouth.

After Wei Yichen left, Wei Ruo found that Wei Qingwan was staring at her, her gaze was a little sharp, as if a sharp blade was about to pierce her body.

Wei Ruo smiled lightly, and then calmly walked past Wei Qingwan's side.

Wei Qingwan's fists clenched, and her nails pinched out red marks in the palms of her hands.

###

It's May.

The whole Zhongyi Bofu is still very busy, because Wei Ruo's wedding date is approaching, and even Wei Mingting, who should have been busy with the war, was allowed to return to Beijing to send his daughter to marry.

At this time, Xu Fengyuan visited Zhongyibo's Mansion again, and Wei Yichen received him in his study.

"Brother Yichen, you tell me the truth, did you have any reservations during the township test?" Xu Fengyuan asked.

"I wasn't able to do it at the time." Wei Yichen replied.

"Now that you're a high school champion, why hide it?" Xu Fengyuan didn't believe Wei Yichen's gift.

"Brother Xu didn't come to me today to ask me this question."

Wei Yichen avoided the question.

Xu Fengyuan smiled helplessly, and then said: "Actually, I don't know why I came to look for you today, it seems that there is nothing wrong, but I always feel that I should come here." ”

When he said this, Xu Fengyuan turned his head to look at the window next to him, looking out through the window, not knowing what he was looking at.

"Brother Xu, there are some delusions that should be let go and need to be put down." Wei Yichen said expressionlessly.

"I still can't hide it from you. I haven't forgotten what you said before the exam, and I know that I can't do anything now, but after all, there are still some people who can't give up, so I came to you by God. ”

Wei Yichen got up and took a pot of wine from the bookshelf and handed it to Xu Fengyuan.

Looking at the wine handed over by Wei Yichen, Xu Fengyuan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Why did you prepare wine in the study?" ”

"For you."

"Huh? You already guessed that I would come? ”

Wei Yichen didn't answer, but took out the wine glass and poured wine for Xu Fengyuan and handed it to him.

Looking at the wine glass, Xu Fengyuan smiled bitterly again, then took it and drank it all.

The liquor was spicy, and the bitter smile on Xu Fengyuan's face became more and more intense after drinking.

"Brother Yichen, I'm curious about what you went through when you were crucifixed, I've always wanted to ask, but I'm afraid of poking your sore spots."

Everyone can feel the changes in Wei Yichen before and after that time, but as classmates and friends, everyone has a tacit understanding and does not ask for details.

It wasn't until today that Xu Fengyuan opened this mouth.

"After life and death, I knew that my former self was too pampered, I thought things were too simple, I couldn't take precautions, and I also knew that my ability was limited, so even if I had hatred, I had to endure it."

Wei Yichen's face was calm when he spoke.

Xu Fengyuan listened but didn't feel calm: "You suffered." ”

"It's not necessarily a bad thing, eat a trench and grow wise."

Saying that, Wei Yichen filled Xu Fengyuan's wine glass again: "Life is unsatisfactory in the world, so Brother Xu still needs to let go of the things that should be put down." ”

Brother Xu smiled bitterly and shook his head, then drank the wine in the cup again.

"In that case, then Brother Yichen will accompany me to get drunk today!" Xu Fengyuan said.

"Okay." Wei Yichen agreed.

Then Xu Fengyuan got drunk in Wei Yichen's study, and when he left, his steps were unsteady, and it was his two attendants who helped him out of the door.

Before leaving, he left a brocade box and asked Wei Yichen to pass it on to Wei Ruo.

It contained a wedding gift he had given her.

Because he was a man, it was inconvenient to give her a gift in person, so he handed it over to Wei Yichen to give it on his behalf.

###

The eighth day of the fifth month.

The day has finally come.

The Zhongyi Uncle's Mansion, which had just been quiet for a few days, was lively again.

The red light hangs high, and the whip and gong sound.

The guests are full and the friends are full.

Inside Changchun Garden.

Wei Ruo put on a wedding dress under the service of the grandmother sent by the palace.

The phoenix crown of pure gold texture is exquisitely crafted and ingenious, and it is impossible to see that it is made in a hurry.

There are several large round pearls on the top, the largest of which is about the size of bayberry, which is very rare.

Wei Ruo's wedding dress was made of Shu brocade with gold silk embroidery, which was made by eleven embroidery girls who worked day and night.

The phoenix pattern on it is lifelike, as if it is about to fly out of the clothes at any time and soar over the clouds.

The necklaces, bracelets, and rings worn on the body are all made of gold and the finest Hetian jade with a transparent texture, and each piece is heavy in weight and exquisite in craftsmanship.

These are not Wei Ruo's own jewelry, but sent to Wei Ruo from the palace.

Wei Ruo is not without good jewelry, but she does not really want to get married, so naturally she will not spend time, energy and money to prepare for her marriage.

What she didn't expect was that the palace would help her prepare all of this, and each one of them was extremely well prepared.

Judging from these details, the palace attaches great importance to her marriage with His Royal Highness King Rui.

Wei Ruo finished dressing, and the Yun clan walked in.

After entering the door, the Yun family looked at the gorgeous and dazzling daughter in front of him, who was as delicate as a peony when she first bloomed, and the words that the Yun family had prepared in advance didn't know how to say for a while.

Yun looked at Wei Ruo, some crystal tears rolling in his eyes for some reason.

After a while, he slowly said: "Ruo'er is so beautiful today." ”

Wei Ruo's face was flat, and he turned around and asked the grandmother beside him, "When will you leave?" ”

Mama Jin, who was standing on the side, looked embarrassed: "Miss, it's still early, you still have some time, let's have some words with Mrs." ”

Wei Ruo turned his head to look at the Yun Clan, and then looked at himself in the mirror again.

Yun stepped forward and reached out to pick up the comb in Mama's hand: "Mother will comb your hair again." ”
