During this time, it has been raining, the rain is dripping, Nangong Yue is sitting alone in the pavilion watching these falling raindrops, she doesn't know when the rain will stop, she really wants to go out to play, to be honest, because she has no father, no mother, and no close friends, she is a little sad, and Ling Bingche has not come back these days, I don't know why, Lu Zhi, are you okay over there, she blamed herself a little for not protecting her in the first place.

"Princess, you can eat something" Cui Ping didn't know when to bring some snacks and put them on the cobblestone table.

There was an osmanthus cake sugar shortbread on the round stone table, and Nangong Yue swept it and took a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it.

"Princess, eat slowly, don't choke," Cui Ping on the side said as she looked at her eating.

The sound of footsteps came in the direction of the pavilion, Nangong Yue looked up, and saw the housekeeper shouting at her with an oil-paper umbrella, "Princess, Master Ji Mansion is boarding you in the side hall!" ”

Nangong Yue chewed the unfinished osmanthus cake and forcibly swallowed it, clapped her hands, sorted out her clothes, and said to the housekeeper, "Okay, I know, you go down first."

Partial hall

A seven-foot-tall man sitting, even if the years are not forgiving, it is not difficult to see that he was also good-looking when he was young, dressed in a yellow roe deer, and slowly sipping tea.

"Master Ji, I'm sorry to keep you waiting" Nangong Yue walked in and shouted.

Seeing this, Master Ji hurriedly put down the cup in his hand, got up and bowed to her to thank her, and then said, "The old man came this time thanks to the princess for saving the little girl that day, these are 100,000 taels of silver, please smile at the princess" Master Ji pointed to the two boxes and said.

Nangong Yue was almost a mouthful of thousand-year-old blood spurting out, and was shocked, this Master Ji is too rich, just give 100,000 taels of silver, she swallowed her saliva and said slowly, "How embarrassing it is, it's just because of fate to save her." Nangong Yue said this on the surface, but she couldn't hide a smile on her face.

"Ahem, by the way, Princess, this is for you alone" Master Ji took a small box and handed it to her.

Nangong Yue opened it and took a look, it turned out to be a jade pendant-shaped brand, Nangong Yue didn't know why she asked, "Master Ji, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Back to the princess, this is something to prove your identity, there is a big restaurant outside the old man to send you, you are now the shopkeeper there, you will take this in the future, you will know where the guy" Master Ji looked at her with a kind smile.

"Thank you so much, by the way, these two boxes of silver taels, and ask Master Ji to bring them back after eating at the house," Nangong Yue said lightly.

"Princess, this can't be helped, how can the money sent by the old man be taken back" Master Ji waved his hand and shook his head.

"Master Ji, I said that if I take it back, I will take it back, and the Ling Wangfu is not short of this 100,000 taels." Nangong Yue glanced at him and said.

"This ...... ...... for the husband"

"Princess, the back kitchen has prepared the dishes, please go and enjoy it with Master Ji," the butler interrupted Master Ji and said.

Nangong Yue twisted her neck and left, and Master Ji also followed.

Dining room

A group of maids and their servants carried dishes on the table, and the room was full of fragrance, including braised pork, crucian carp soup, white-cut chicken, stir-fried beef with green peppers, and a few plates of vegetarian dishes.

"Master Ji, please" Nangong Yue sat down and moved a pair of chopsticks to signal him to sit down, and Master Ji also sat down when he saw this, and then the two of them moved the chopsticks.

Wei Mansion

Master Wei was so angry for several days, if it weren't for that slut marrying King Ling, otherwise he wouldn't have been so humiliated, he clenched his fist and slammed it on the tea table.

"Master, you said that you don't need to eat these days, if this continues, your health will not be good, the concubine will cook you a bowl of ginseng soup, you can taste it" Zhang Yuzhen walked in from the door with a bowl of soup with a sad face.

Old Man Wei didn't even raise his eyelids, he walked over and glanced at it, drank the ginseng soup in the bowl, and then sat without speaking, Second Mrs. Wei saw that his face was not good, got up from the stool and said

"Oh master~, no matter how you say that we have a son in the house, don't be angry,"

Master Wei, who was already angry, couldn't wait to send it early, but the second lady of the Wei Tian family hit the muzzle of the gun, and then said angrily, "You are embarrassed to mention that rebel!" If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have embarrassed his husband! ”

As soon as he thought of the thousands of taels of silver, he became angry, the house has no income recently, and the emperor has been asking them to find a way to repair the dam, there is no silver taels, but he sent it in vain, can he not be angry.

Zhang Yuzhen was stunned when she saw him angry, and then said with a look of grievance, "Master, woo..., it's all caused by the subordinates, if he doesn't talk about Princess Ling, our son won't be affected."

"Hmph, Nangong Yue, this slut is too deceitful! , where did she suffer a lot of anger for her husband that day" Master Wei's face was a little better and he said.

"Master, just a princess Ling, can't you deal with her as a weak woman?" Zhang Yuzhen suddenly had an idea, and then spoke.

"Why don't you have the idea to vent evil anger for the old man?" Master Wei asked with some excitement,

King Ling, she didn't dare to offend, but that woman he could do a little bit of tricks, and besides, it was impossible for him King Ling to live for a woman, if he married another concubine one day, see what she Nangong Yue had to be arrogant Thinking of this, Zhang Yuzhen continued

"Sir, don't you see that the eldest lady has a daughter? It stands to reason that she should reach the age of starting a family, why don't you let her daughter seduce King Ling? ”

Master Wei immediately smiled when he heard this, as long as the eldest lady's daughter seduced King Ling and was favored by King Ling, then the title of Princess Ling would sooner or later, and when the time came, Nangong Yue, that slut, he would take revenge as much as he wanted, and he was worried that no one would approach King Ling!

"Hurry up, go and call the eldest lady for the old man," Master Wei commanded outside the door.

Zhang Yuzhen on the side secretly rejoiced, she just wanted to marry off that slut's child, and then think about driving away the eldest lady, so that she was the only lady in the house, and what about the concubine, it was not something that couldn't be put on the table.

After a while, the maid led a woman in her forties, dressed in a yellowed coarse cloth dress and calloused hands, but also showing her elegant temperament.

"Master, may I ask you what you are looking for me?" Li Sumei looked at the man who made her so tormented and asked, with an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"What about Wei Qing? Why don't you see her coming with you? Old Man Wei looked around and didn't see the unspoiled daughter and asked.

"Master, Wei Qing was infected with a cold last night, and now he is inviting Lang Zhong to come and take a look," Li Sumei replied coldly.

"Oh, the old man wants to tell you, Wei Qing is also at the age of getting married, and I will send her to King Ling's Mansion at that time, if she gets King Ling's love, the entire Wei Mansion will also have some face" Master Wei looked at her and said.

Li Sumei's heart tingled, for so many years, he had never looked at her squarely, nor did he have a father's love for her, but he doted on the second lady, these years they were bullied by the second lady, he turned a blind eye and ignored it, now it's good, I want her only daughter to go to King Ling's mansion, who doesn't know what kind of person King Ling is, he only loves Princess Ling, Wei Jianghai just wants to use his daughter to get close to King Ling, and at the same time to please the emperor, hehe. After all, there is no father-daughter relationship, and in his eyes, he only cares about face, money, and power.

"I said eldest lady, what a good thing this is, send the eldest lady to King Ling's mansion, if it is done, she will be a side concubine, or a concubine or something, our Wei Mansion has a light on its face" Zhang Yuzhen sneered.

"Heh, even if I die, I will not agree to my daughter being sent to King Ling's mansion as a concubine, I just hope that my daughter will marry someone who loves her for the rest of her life!" As long as she lives one day, no one will think of beating her daughter!

"Master, look at the eldest lady, she doesn't know how to lift at all!" Zhang Yuzhen shouted at Master Wei.

"Zhang Yuzhen, what are you, only I Wei Jianghai has what I say in this mansion, and you can agree to Wei Qing's affairs if you don't agree!" Old Man Wei shouted angrily.

Zhang Yuzhen walked over and helped Wei Jianghai, who was angry, and said, "Master, you are quietly angry, don't be angry."

Li Sumei looked at these two people, I don't know why I want to vomit and vomit in my stomach, she has paid so much in this family, her mother didn't agree to her marrying back then, just because he was a poor scholar and penniless, and she was the pearl of the Li family, she ran away overnight and eloped with him.

It was he who said that he only loved her alone, and he personally said that he would win the champion in the future, and he would definitely give her a wedding in a beautiful way, she believed it, and sold all the valuable headdresses on his body to marry him simply in the church, they were very sweet that year, originally she thought that she would live a dull life, but accidentally found that he won the champion, and unexpectedly brought back a woman, which is now Zhang Yuzhen, since then his original attitude has changed, and he doesn't care about her, hot and cold, even the newborn Wei Qing has not seen it a few times, and those promises are all gone.

"Wei Jianghai, how much I have paid for this family over the years, I take care of the family up and down, you look at my hands, and then look at my dress, it was the wedding you promised me to make up for my scenery, it was you who promised me to love only me Su Mei alone, but now you even want to use your daughter, are you still human" Li Sumei roared with a crying voice.

When she said this, Wei Jianghai's face darkened suddenly, yes, he said that back then, he was sorry for her, but now it is not what it used to be, he is not the same person he was back then, and now he just wants to assist the emperor to get everything he wants, but there is an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Big lady, it's not the same as it used to be now, you put away that pitiful look, it won't be good to be looked at and spread the Wei family's face," Zhang Yuzhen looked at her and mocked.

"Shut up! I can't talk to the master, and it's not your turn to talk to a concubine! Li Sumei shouted directly at her.

At this moment, she has to vent all the dissatisfaction in her heart, and she has to get back these grievances, now she can't be bullied by them anymore, she has to protect Wei Qing.

That Zhang Yuzhen never thought that the eldest lady, who had always dared not contradict her, dared to shout at her today, and she glared at Li Sumei viciously.

"Li Sumei, you are actually shouting at me, I'm afraid you haven't seen your current position clearly, right?" Zhang Yuzhen said.

"Hehe, as long as the lord doesn't take me a day, I am still the eldest lady in this house, and you will always be a concubine, don't be delusional about the position of the eldest lady!" Li Sumei looked at her and sneered.

Zhang Yuzhen was angry and went crazy on the spot, at this time she couldn't take care of Master Wei who hadn't left yet, she rushed over directly to hit Li Sumei.

Wei Jianghai noticed that the two women were scuffling together, and suddenly slapped the table with a black face, and roared, "Presumptuous! Are you old men gone, isn't it enough to be embarrassed in this house! Don't stop it yet! ”

Hearing Wei Jianghai's voice, the eldest lady and the second lady who were originally scuffling together let go of each other, there was no good one on the two of them, their hair was also messy, and their clothes were torn in the process, but the eldest lady's face was not beaten, but the second lady's face was bruised and purple by the eldest lady, and there was a blackened eye.

She covered her face with one hand and cried aggrievedly, "Master, look at it, look at the eldest lady who has beaten my face like this, how will I see people then, master."

"You go down first, and I'll invite Lang Zhong to come over and have a look," Wei Jianghai said helplessly.

Zhang Yuzhen looked at Wei Jianghai's somewhat angry face, and she reluctantly left.

After a long time, Wei Jianghai walked over to help Li Sumei, Li Sumei pushed his hand away, stood up by herself, and was about to leave, but her arm was grabbed by Wei Jianghai.

"Su Mei, I'm sorry for you all these years, the talented girl said those words, and the old man knew that it was thanks to the two of you who owed you" Wei Jianghai suddenly said softly to Li Sumei.

Li Sumei looked at him in shock, did he want to change his mind, but in the next second, Wei Jianghai stabbed a dagger into her abdomen, ...... Li Sumei didn't react, Wei Jianghai stabbed a few more times.

"Poof...... You...... You...... Poof" Li Sumei's eyes were big, and she pointed at Wei Jianghai, and before she finished speaking, the whole person fell.
