After returning from Su's house, I first went to report Wei Zhengyin's condition to Mrs. Su. Mrs. Su looked surprised when she heard Wei Changying's words that Wei Zhengyin would be fine in a day or two at most: "I definitely can't miss my eldest cousin's wedding date." ? But it shocked me...it’s not serious?”
Wei Changying said with a smile: "My wife was very frightened before, but she found out when she met her aunt. She thought she was just ill and was impatient to take medicine, so she refused to be seen by Dr. Ji. Then it was spread that Dr. Ji had seen her. If you don’t know what the disease is, come on.”
Mrs. Su said thoughtfully: "What happened next?"
"Later, my daughter-in-law asked Aunt Huang to take a look at it. Aunt Huang remembered a folk remedy she had learned from Doctor Ji, but it didn't require the use of medicine." Wei Changying said, "This is how Aunt Huang is willing to treat it. Aunt Huang said that Aunt Huang My body and bones are good, so it doesn’t matter if I don’t take medicine. Now that I’m using folk remedies, I’ll definitely be fine tomorrow.”
"This is really great." Mrs. Su said this, but her expression was very calm. She nodded and said, "Yu Li and Yu Li's wedding is so close, and there are two weddings in succession. Your aunt is absolutely sick. No."
When Wei Changying saw his mother-in-law like this, he knew that her mother-in-law was well aware of the overt and covert fights between her two sisters-in-law, especially Wei Zhengyin's so-called "illness" this time. She secretly rejoiced: Even Mrs. Su, who had not returned to her parents' home, knew that Wei Zhengyin was deliberately pretending to be ill in order to delay her daughter's wedding so as to take revenge on the Qian family. How could the Su family, especially Su Pingzhan, not know this
Fortunately, Su Yuli had a general idea and took the initiative to persuade Wei Zhengyin to be tolerant. Otherwise, as Su Yuli said, even if Su Pingzhan did not blame the third wife for this, he would still think that the eldest daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law were just the same thing. —Then considering that Dafang has a lot of offenses against Sanfang, and now Sanfang is taking revenge before Sanfang gains power, if Sanfang gains power, will Dafang still have a way to survive in the future
Don't make a joke about the lively fight between the first and third bedrooms, only for the silent second bedroom to take advantage in the end!
Wei Zhengyin breathed a sigh of relief, and Wei Changying said: "What mother said is that when I came to my aunt today, she was also in a hurry. She also told her daughter-in-law, her eldest cousin, and her second cousin not to be greedy for cool things at this time, so as not to be like this. Auntie is the same this time, she put more ice on it and got a headache after waking up overnight. "
Mrs. Su sighed and said, "Did Yuli go to visit your aunt today too?"
"Isn't that true?" Wei Changying smiled and roughly conveyed what happened, "It's ridiculous to say it. After the second cousin came over, she said she wanted to apologize, but both her aunt and first cousin were confused. It turned out later that it turned out that The second cousin misunderstood that her aunt was sick this time because she was angry with her eldest aunt for changing the wedding date of her eldest cousin without permission... After hearing this, my aunt and eldest cousin couldn't laugh or cry. They asked the second cousin where they heard this rumor. Are your own flesh and blood going to war over trivial matters like this?”
Mrs. Su took a deep look at her and said, "Your aunt has always been virtuous, but she is indeed not this kind of person. I think the people below are talking nonsense, and she is honest, so she was deceived."
"That's what mother said." Wei Changying said.
Mrs. Su added: "It is indeed inappropriate for your aunt to change Yu Li's wedding date this time. It's just that last year, Yu Liang was unable to participate in the imperial martial arts performance due to injury, which made her regretful. Now Qian Lian is both his direct nephew and the future. My son-in-law, you eldest aunt don’t dare to delay his future again.”
Wei Changying said in surprise: "How could the fourth cousin be injured?"
"It's also an accident." Mrs. Su sighed, "A few days before New Year's Eve, he practiced martial arts too hard. One day, it was getting late, and he was returning to his yard from the field. After passing the small garden, there was a section where the lights on the road were blown by the strong wind. He took two. He was impatient to wait for his servants to get lamps for lighting, so he walked in the dark relying on the terrain. As a result, he accidentally stepped into the pool in the small garden, and hit a rock when he got up, injuring his knee and ankle. , even standing on New Year’s Eve was difficult, so…”
Wei Changying was dumbfounded: This time the Qian family cheated on Su Yuli, maybe it had something to do with it - speaking of it, the Su family's eldest son was really unfortunate, having lost his legitimate son Su Yuxian, who had a solid and undisputed position in the family. , Su Yuliang, the only remaining legitimate son, suffered setbacks one after another.
First, his cousin Su Yuwu had a better temperament than him, and then the family jointly secured the opportunity for their children to go to the border areas, but he had an accident before he was allowed to perform martial arts in front of the emperor and lost the opportunity. Ms. Qian was not an open-minded person to begin with, and it would not be an exaggeration to say she was narrow-minded. This time, her son was one step behind Su Yuwu. How could she not bear a grudge and go to the third bedroom
However, although Qian did this to vent his anger for a while, in the long run, it was tantamount to cheating his own son.
"What a pity, fourth cousin." Wei Changying said sincerely.
In fact, Su Yuliang's identity as the legitimate son of the eldest son should still have some weight in Su Pingzhan's eyes, otherwise Su Pingzhan would not have hesitated for so long without deciding who would take over Fufengtang in the future after thinking that Su Yuliang was indecisive. One room of people.
But as a mother like Qian, she thought she was fighting for the benefits for her children, but she was gradually wearing away Su Yuliang's advantage bit by bit.
Mrs. Su heard the meaning of her daughter-in-law's words, sighed, looked at the copper leak in the corner of the room, and said: "The light is almost gone, you can go back to your room."
Wei Changying agreed and stood up to leave. Before she could turn around, Mrs. Su thought of calling her out again and said, "It seems that someone is here to look for you today at Miracle Doctor Ji. Since you are not here, the He family you are dowrying is coming with her." It may have something to do with your bodyguard who is recuperating at Divine Doctor Ji’s place.”
"Uncle Jiang?" Wei Changying blurted out, and his heart tightened - Ji Qubing had a bad temper, but his medical skills were well-known in the country. What's more, the day she sent Jiang Zheng to her door, Ji Qubing had already crossed Jiang. Zheng's life is safe, all that remains is the speed of recovery.
As for medical expenses, the next day Wei Changying asked Huang to personally send five hundred taels of silver. Even if Ji Qubing gave Jiang Zheng good medicine every day, it had only been a few days, and it was reasonable that he still wouldn't be able to pay for it. As for using it so quickly. Besides, if they are just here to ask for money, why bother with He personally following the visitor there
Wei Changying thought: "Could it be that the prince was unwilling to find out the whereabouts of Jiang Bo, so..."
Of course, when Wei Zhengyin brought her into the palace to plead guilty last time, Empress Gu was very approachable and tactfully said that she would clean up the treacherous villains around the prince, and also implicitly promised that something like this would never happen again.
But after the incident of the lotus picker at Chuncao Lake happened, Mrs. Su brought her daughter-in-law into the palace to plead guilty. Wouldn’t it be the same thing when looking back at the queen? Then the prince almost beat Jiang Zheng to death in the street! Of course Wei Changying would no longer believe the queen's guarantee.
Thinking like this, I walked out of the upper room and started to hurry.
When they arrived at Jintong Courtyard, Mrs. Wan came out to greet them, and Wei Changying asked directly: "Has anyone been here from Divine Doctor Ji?"
"Exactly." Mrs. Wan knew that Jiang Zheng's injury was related to the Tian family. Now that he heard about the trouble, Wei Changying must be worried, and said hurriedly, "That's it. Today, Miss Yu suddenly found Doctor Ji and said He was willing to work as a slave to serve Jiang Wei. Now that Jiang Wei was not in good spirits, Doctor Ji couldn't bear to deal with such a person, so he asked Zhu Zhuangshi to go out and send the girl away. Someone came to us for help. Sister He knew that the miracle doctor was not happy about this, so she went to take a look first. "
"Miss Yu?" Wei Changying frowned, and immediately thought of the Yu family that Shen Zangfeng had asked Zhang Pingxu to inquire about before. He heard that Yu Fu had two daughters with outstanding looks, and he didn't know that they would come to Ji Zhai to entangle them. Is it the eldest girl or the second girl of the Yu family? The eldest girl Yu Yanniang is the prince's concubine. Even if she has fallen out of favor now, she will not be exposed to the public in the future
But no matter which girl it was... Wei Changying thought about it and vaguely speculated that the reason why he and Empress Gu kept saying that Jiang Zheng was injured was because the people around the prince were too arrogant and did not appreciate the prince's generous temperament. They relied on the people in the East Palace. Feiyang is domineering - and he promised that he would clean up the prince's personal servants.
Could it be that the queen was planning to operate on the Yu family, but the Yu family became seriously ill and went to Ji's house to plead with Jiang Zheng
This is very possible. After all, the Yu family's status in the imperial capital is not high, and they are not qualified to inquire about Wei Changying's movements, let alone the residence of the eccentric Ji Qubing who lives in seclusion.
Maybe the prince or the queen told Yu about the location of Ji's house.
"Since Aunt He passed by first, let's just wait. When Aunt He comes back, please come to me immediately." Wei Changying thought for a moment and then ordered.
She doesn't have time to bother with this matter now, because now she is officially in charge of some matters, and she is no more free than before. Today I went to Su's house to visit Wei Zhengyin. There were already many things delayed for her to deal with.
He called the stewards who reported to him one by one to talk about the matter, and he was busy until evening before sending them all away. Wei Changying asked Zhu Lan to rub his shoulders, and then asked in surprise: "Why hasn't Aunt He come back yet?" He was just sending a commoner's daughter, even though there was probably an informant from the queen or the prince behind the Yu family. However, he will not show up to her now.
According to He's fierceness, he should cut through the mess quickly and send people away in three strokes.
But now a few hours have passed, and it was too long for He to go out, even excluding the time and space that came and went.
"That's right." Mrs. Huang was also a little worried, "How about my maid go to greet you?"
Wei Changying said: "That's fine..."
Mrs. Huang received the order and was about to leave when she heard someone outside shouting: "Auntie, you are finally back. The young lady was still asking you just now!"
"Is it Aunt He?" Wei Changying asked hurriedly.
Zhu Shi, who was guarding the door, stretched out his head, pulled back and said with a smile, "It's my aunt who's back."
Not long after, Mrs. He came in. Wei Changying waved her hand to avoid her courtesy, and said without intending to greet her, "Aunt He, what's going on with Mr. Yu?"
"I have been thinking about talking to you all the way back, young lady." Hearing this, Mrs. He sneered and said, "Then Mrs. Yu is Yu Fu - the one where Guard Jiang often went to take care of business. The second daughter who is the shopkeeper of Hu Cake Shop. Why did she go to Ji Zhai? It turns out that the reason why Jiang Weiwei went to the street where the Prince's ceremony was passing was because she was entrusted by her father to buy Hu Cake. Go to that street to buy some flour for their shop!”
Wei Changying was not surprised because he had heard Shen Zangfeng's speculation and the news from Zhang Pingxu, but others such as the Huang family were very surprised and said: "Last time, the young master asked Zhu Lei about the Yu family. Is it really them? Are they all? The friendship between Jiang Shiwei’s father has been so low, why...how could he be so vicious!"
Everyone was very angry: "What a heartless Yu family! Not to mention the friendship between Jiang Shiwei's father and Yu Fu, let's just say that since Jiang Shiwei stayed at Anshun Inn, he often ran to take care of their business when he missed his old friendship. There is always a sense of friendship! They actually harmed Guard Jiang like this!"
"Not to mention the harm to people, because Jiang Weiwei has been unconscious these days, there is not a word in his mouth!" Mr. He snorted, "Now maybe I found out that Jiang Weiwei is not dead, and will gradually wake up. I knew I couldn't keep it secret, so I came here hypocritically to be a slave to atone for Yu Fu's sins!"
Wei Changying wondered: "If it's just a Yu family, why did my aunt take it so long?" (To be continued)
