Chapter 248: Aunt Li's Relatives
Ruan Jiaojiao could see that Wei Yan came to her to play the vanguard, and she had to ask her to help run errands.
Just when she saw that Wei Yan wanted to see something excellent on Wei Yan's face, Wei Yan spoke again.
"When I sent them on the boat that day, Miss Gu also invited me to have time to go to Boryeong City to play, saying that when the time came, she would treat me well, and she brewed some osmanthus wine last year."
Wei Yan's smile can be called obscene, with a bit of shameless spirit.
Ruan Jiaojiao had a feeling of being laughed at by him, "Do you think that Miss Gu is interesting to you?" ”
And Wei Yan really smiled and nodded, "She invited me, she must not hate me, so wouldn't I have a chance."
Maybe she thinks I'm good, too? ”
He gritted his teeth, "I also know that I don't match her very well as I am, but I really like her." ”
Wei Yan's family background is also good, but it is low in his status as a concubine.
The Gu family in Baoning City is a well-known scholar, and there are many students of Old Man Gu, and Miss Gu is the only lady in the family who has been very valued since she was a child.
Miss Gu can be matched with a famous family casually, but Wei Yan is really not enough to look at it in comparison.
He was self-aware, so he came to Ruan Jiaojiao to inquire first, and he didn't dare to go to the door rashly, and he hadn't mentioned it to his father yet.
Ruan Jiaojiao pondered for a long time, and then went to see He Zong.
He Zong was calm and direct, "If you want to, go for it." ”
He wasn't like that at the beginning, and he didn't think it was any use to regret it later.
Ruan Jiaojiao also said: "You should prepare well first, and then face it in the best state." ”
After a pause, she promised, "If you really have the heart, I can ask Lord Gu on your behalf, but this matter must be taken seriously, not just a pleasure on a whim." ”
Wei Yan couldn't wait to kneel down and kowtow to her, and with his cousin's help, he felt a lot more stable.
Since she promised people, Ruan Jiaojiao would not procrastinate, and immediately sent a letter to Gu Yue in Fenglan County.
Zhao Sheng just went to the old house to send He Yufang a recipe for pancreas and fruit wine, and he didn't even drink saliva and took his wife's letter to arrange it.
Seeing Zhao Sheng go out with the letter, Wei Yan's heart seemed to fly away with his heart.
On the second day of the new year, Ruan Jiaojiao and He Zong went to the Wei family to pay New Year's greetings, and the hostess of the Wei Mansion was not there, but no one could take care of things in the back house, and now they are all in the hands of Aunt Bai.
When there were guests in the presence of the Zhan family, she didn't even have a chance to show up, and now she seems to be a hostess.
Seeing that his uncle didn't say anything, Ruan Jiaojiao naturally couldn't say anything as a guest, and that person was still Wei Yan's biological mother.
But Ruan Jiaojiao didn't like this Bai clan very much, and she couldn't get close to her enthusiastic appearance at all.
At the dinner table, Wei Yu really mentioned that he wanted them to come to dinner before, Ruan Jiaojiao only said that he was busy, and along the way, Wei Yu said that Wei Ting and the Zhan family went to Kyoto, and Ruan Jiaojiao picked up what her uncle liked to hear and said a few good words.
During this period, no one mentioned the Yang family, and it was also a pleasure for the guests and hosts.
Coming out of the Wei Mansion, Ruan Jiaojiao felt that He Zong was in a good mood, the kind of mood that could be seen on the face.
"Xianggong is in a good mood today?"
She remembered that when Wei Yan came to the house yesterday and mentioned it, he still gritted his teeth with a cold face, how could he be so happy when he came to visit?
He Zong drank some wine, and his breath was full of wine, and there was a feeling of intoxicating heat in the small carriage.
Ruan Jiaojiao slightly lifted the curtain of the car to let the wind in, and heard the man say, "Uncle Xie's brain is muddy." ”
Ruan Jiaojiao was stunned for the man's sudden words, and after reacting that he was talking about Wei Ting, she remembered that he had said the first time they met.
Ruan Jiaojiao, who had been planning for him for a long time, couldn't help laughing, and the two in the carriage just looked at each other, their eyes ranging from calm to sticky.
He Zong said that Xie Nei didn't look down on Wei Ting in his heart for a bad outer room and made trouble with his family, even if he went to Kyoto, he would be picked up sooner or later, and it was impossible to marry a woman who could satisfy the Zhan family and Wei Yu.
He is ruining his future and reputation, maybe he thinks it is worth it, after all, it is deep and righteous.
In front of his daughter-in-law, He Zong rarely mentioned the Wei family, it was his little Jiujiu, and now he was relieved.
After the year, there were constant banquets in this and that family, and both of them were busy coping.
On the afternoon of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Ruan Jiaojiao came back by herself after a banquet, He Zong was not with her, and said that he would come back late in the evening.
She is planning to rest, and also slow down the busyness of these years.
Steward Jiang said that the guest was a relative of Aunt He Zong's side.
Thinking that they are also relatives, no matter how Aunt Li also gave birth to He Zong, Ruan Jiaojiao had to support the guests.
The person who came was an old woman with a little girl who looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and after Steward Jiang explained, Ruan Jiaojiao knew that the old woman was actually He Zong's aunt, and she was not yet forty years old and did not look old.
And the little girl who followed her was her youngest daughter and He Zong's cousin.
The mother and daughter looked very restrained when they came in, but after Ruan Jiaojiao invited them to sit down and politely served tea and snacks, the aunt was obviously a lot more comfortable.
At this time, she looked at Ruan Jiaojiao with unrestrained eyes, as if she had made a number of Ruan Jiaojiao in her heart.
She said, "We have a lot of things to do in the countryside, so we didn't come to see you early, Brother Zong'er is also a busy man, so I didn't tell you much about our relatives."
But relatives are always relatives or should move around more to not be rusty, isn't it the year, I will take his cousin to see him. ”
Ruan Jiaojiao drank tea and looked at people with her eyelids.
She has always been respected by others for three points and five points, but she doesn't catch up with others who light her.
For example, this aunt, after she looked at the people, she took out the posture of an elder, and it didn't feel like she was just here to visit the door.
And her daughter, who couldn't even hide her expression when she looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, who did she show that contemptuous and imperative expression?
Ruan Jiaojiao was already tired, and she didn't want to entertain them anymore, so it was rare to do Tai Chi with them.
"Xianggong really didn't mention to me that there is such a relative, since Xianggong is not there, I won't keep you more."
Her bright send-off made both of them look quite ugly, especially the cousin.
She didn't speak since she came in and called Ruan Jiaojiao a cousin-in-law, and she was so angry that she was about to say something when she opened her mouth, but was stopped by her mother.
"Brother Zong's daughter-in-law is really young and ignorant, I am an elder and don't care about this.
It's not easy for us to come here, and we are also here to see Brother Zong'er, so we will wait for him to come back.
It's just that now that you have married the He family, you still have to learn more to share the burden for Brother Zong'er, so that he can work hard outside with peace of mind. ”
