Chapter 310: Lady Wei (2)
Shen Mingjiao hurriedly pulled the person up with the maid. After some hypnosis and persuasion, Mrs. Wei finally quieted down.
For fear of irritating the other party again, Shen Mingjiao took off the red jacket on her body and put it on again.
She went out of the back room and had the perfume utensils prepared and the spices she needed.
Fortunately, although Uncle Guo's mansion is deserted, there is still no shortage of these things. She put things neatly on the table, cleaned her hands and began to perfume.
As a noble lady of a family, she basically knows some simple fragrances. In her previous life, she was very keen on perfumery, and she went to consult a female official in the palace who was very good at perfumery, so although she was not as good at perfumery, she was proficient.
After two teas, Shen Mingjiao covered the incense burner and let people take it to the back room.
At this time, Mrs. Wei was still the same as she had seen when she first came, sitting quietly in the corner of the bed, holding a pillow in her arms, and humming softly.
Shen Mingjiao sat across from her and spoke to her softly. As the fragrance filled the room, Mrs. Wei's expression gradually cleared, but it was a little blurry.
This incense was taught to her by Wen Heng two days ago, saying that lighting this incense can stimulate people's consciousness, but the time limit is at most two quarters of an hour, and it can only be used once.
Mrs. Wei looked down at the pillow she was holding in her hand, and her fingertips paused.
Then he looked up and smiled shyly at Shen Mingjiao, like a girl waiting for a boudoir: "I don't know which lady you are?" β
Shen Mingjiao handed her a cup of tea and said with a smile: "I am Feng Lisheng's wife. β
Mrs. Wei was stunned: "You mean Little Sixteen!" Yikes! The kids are married! β
Shen Mingjiao followed her topic and asked, "Have you seen my Highness?" β
"I've seen it! A few years ago, Ru Niang and I entered the palace for the first time, and we happened to meet Concubine Li Niangniang, who was out for a walk with the sixteen princes in her arms, and the sixteen princes had just been born at that time.
The Sixteenth Prince is the best-looking baby I have ever seen, with skin as white as snow and big grape-like eyes, which make people's hearts melt. β
As if thinking of some picture, a gentle smile crossed her lips.
"Concubine Li saw that the two of us liked it, so she smiled and asked us to help hug for a while, madam, you don't know, the child just got into Ru Niang's arms and urinated on her, Ru Niang was so frightened that her face turned white."
As she spoke, she laughed softly, as if she was still stuck in the past.
Shen Mingjiao: "......" Thinking of the cold and ascetic Feng Lisheng's wet pants, okay! The picture is so beautiful that she can't imagine it.
However, this also made her a lot closer to Mrs. Wei. She asked, "The Ru Niang you are talking about is the queen mother?" β
"Yes! My mother and Ru Niang's mother are handkerchiefs, and the Wei family and the Rong family are also world friends. Because of this, not long after I was born, I made a baby kiss with Wei Che, the eldest son of the Wei family. β
At the mention of Wei Che, her expression paused. "So for as long as I can remember, I know that I was going to marry Wei Che. Although Wei Che is always cold and doesn't like to talk, he is good-looking! In order to please him, I worked hard to learn the etiquette of the lady, and learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Because I am good friends with Ru Niang, Wei Che and I are also childhood sweethearts. Although he didn't treat me very specially, he also acquiesced to the fact that I was her fiancΓ©e, and he would buy me sugar gourds and carry me down the mountain. Every time I buy something for Ru Niang, I will also bring it with me.
I think this is also very good, he may be born cold, thinking that even if there is no strong love and sweetness after the two get married, it will be plain and stable. β
Until the wedding was approaching, Mrs. Wei, who was Wei Che's grandmother, sent a room to Wei Che's courtyard.
Actually, I knew about it, and although I felt a little uncomfortable, I didn't feel anything, because this was a convention. And the old lady didn't mean anything else, probably because she thought Wei Che's personality was too light, and I was too shy and dignified, afraid that the two of them would make jokes at night. β
Of course, Shen Mingjiao knew this, and the situation of the two of Xiang Su Wangfu and the emperor and queen was rare. Generally, it is normal for the upper-class noble family to have concubines and concubines. Of course, unless it is a very unparticular family or businessman, it is rare for a concubine to kill his wife. Otherwise, if you don't have a good reputation, you will be laughed at by your colleagues even if you don't lose your official position and be demoted.
It's like the little concubine riding on the head of his wife as written in the book. Basically not happens. Even if you're really cowardly, you still have your mother's family. Nowadays, the sense of clan is very strong, and my aunt and grandmother were bullied in her husband's house, if you keep quiet, you will be poked in the back.
And the Tongfang is not even a concubine, in principle, they are still slaves, but they do different jobs. With a deed of sale, the housewife can handle people to death.
"I originally thought that with Wei Qing's light character, most of them would not touch that room, even if he really accepted people in consideration of the face of his elders, with his character and upbringing, he would not be good, but I never thought about ......"
Her breath was rapid, and it was clear that the incident had hit him hard.
Shen Mingjiao gently patted her back.
Looking at Shen Mingjiao's eyes, Mrs. Wei's emotions gradually calmed down.
"That day, I was going to look for Ru Niang, but she went to the old lady's, so I quietly went to Wei Che's courtyard, and heard a woman's laughter in the distance.
Standing at the gate of the courtyard, I saw a delicate-looking girl sitting on the stone table and shaking her legs comfortably, while Wei Che, who had never been cold and indifferent, knelt humbly at the woman's feet and brushed the dust off her feet. Looking at the woman's eyes, she was even more focused and gentle.
If all this can be attributed to a momentary liking, but he actually gave the jade bracelet passed down by the Wei family to his daughter-in-law to the woman,
I couldn't get angry, so I went to the old lady. After hearing this, the old lady's face was ugly, probably she didn't expect things to be like this, and she said that she would give me an explanation.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw this, and only thought that the old lady would get rid of the people quickly. But...... Unexpectedly, on the second day, I received a letter from Wei Che inviting me to Wei Mansion, and I was happy and apprehensive.
But he saw ...... See...... The woman was slain to death with a rod! At that time, she stared at a pair of blood-red eyes, as if she was going to eat people......"
Her tone was a little hurried, and her eyes were full of fear. "Princess, you believe me...... I didn't want her life, I just thought ...... I thought the old lady would drive people away......"
She took a heavy breath of the aroma in the house, "Later, within two months, Wei Che and I got married, although he treated me the same as before, even better than before, but I had a pimple in my heart, plus the death of the first emperor during that time, and then His Majesty ascended the throne, the former harem was in chaos, Wei Che, His Majesty's companion and uncle, was busy all day long, until Da Lang turned one year old.
Because of the harmony between Da Lang and Wei Che, the relationship between me and Wei Che gradually became harmonious, and it seemed that we had returned to the past. β
"Until the lantern festival of the second year, it was clear that I was just turning around, but Dalang was gone!"
Her voice choked up, and before she knew it, she burst into tears.
Suddenly, her face changed, she covered her head and exclaimed, "Da Lang, he died so miserably, he was bleeding all over, is it ...... It was my fault...... It was the woman's revenge, and she said in her dream......"
Shen Mingjiao hurriedly supported her, looked at the incense burner that was still smoking, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, it was less than a quarter of an hour before the incense was lit.
But at this moment, Mrs. Wei muttered in a delirious voice:
"She said, since I can't get him, then no one should think about it!"
