Shen Xinyan sighed: "You're right, the children have grown up and have their own ideas."
Wei Junhang chuckled: "The children have grown up, but my wife is even more beautiful than before."
Shen Xinyan's pretty face flushed from his praise, and she gave him a look: "It's almost the age of a grandfather, and I still don't speak properly."
"Which is not serious? This is what I say in my heart."
With a blushing face, Shen Xinyan lightly tapped his shoulder, causing him to burst into laughter. She grabbed the "assailant" hand and wrapped it tightly in her palm.
Shen Xinyan was half-embraced by him, leaning on his chest, for a moment, and suddenly asked: "If I knew nothing but a face that you like, would you still insist on marrying me back then?"
"Don't talk nicely to coax me, I want to listen to the truth." Before Wei Junhang could answer, she added another sentence.
Wei Junhang really thought about it for a moment, and then slowly replied: "Yes."
Seeing that Shen Xinyan didn't seem to believe it, he continued: "Back then, there was a big brother in the mansion, and I was just the second son. I didn't have to bear the responsibility of supporting the family, nor did I have to be very promising. You can choose a wife and only choose what you like. Father My mother also thought the same way, so I just mentioned to them about my marriage with the Jing'an House, and they agreed without thinking too long."
"In other words, if you were already the son of the world back then, no matter how much you liked in your heart, you would not marry a wife who is beautiful but knows nothing?" Shen Xinyan continued.
"You're not the kind who can't do anything..." Wei Junhang muttered, and after receiving a stare from his wife, he quickly raised his hand as a sign of surrender, thought for a while, and nodded: "That's true."
"Mrs. Shizi will be the clan's wife in the future. In addition to taking on the responsibility of extending the heirs, she also needs to be in charge of the house and affairs, and be considerate in everything. If you don't understand anything, the chaos in the inner house is just a matter of time."
"If the man is quite capable, what if he can catch him inside and out?" Shen Xinyan asked again.
"Men don't get involved in the inner court. No matter how capable they are, their minds and talents should be placed on making meritorious deeds, so that they will not let down the elders' hard work and careful teaching. Otherwise, what is the glory of the family when they are in vain as the head of the clan? , Husband and wife are the way of yin and yang, and only by supporting each other can they last for a long time. If only one person supports alone, even if there is no problem for a while, it will eventually become a problem after a long time. .”
Seeing that Shen Xinyan's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, he quickly added another sentence: "Of course, what I just said was aimed at the eldest son who will bear the responsibility of the patriarch and inherit the family business in the future. As for the second son and the daughter-in-law of the youngest son, as long as they If you like it, and the other party is a decent girl with good character, then you don't have to ask too much."
"I understand." Shen Xinyan nodded.
"So, Brother Lin's wife can't just let him like it all. You and your mother have to take care of it. After all, the Duke's Mansion will be handed over to them in the future." Finally, Wei Juanhang urged One sentence.
"Okay, don't worry, I know everything in my heart." Shen Xinyan responded with a smile.
Wei Junhang stroked her temples lightly: "There is also Ying'er's marriage..."
Speaking of this, he sighed again: "It's a pity that Yunfu has such an identity. If he is still only Yunfu, we don't have to worry about Ying'er's marriage. This child has a generous heart and can tolerate others. Ying'er has known each other since childhood, if a marriage can be achieved...it would be a pity."
Shen Xinyan felt a burst of regret.
The husband and wife were regretting that such a good son-in-law was wasted in vain, and they didn't realize that Wei Yingzhi outside the house could hear their words clearly, her face was flushed, she was a little shy, and also a little inexplicably joyful.
"Who, who is going to marry Yunfu, I want to say that it's because he has such status!" She muttered, and walked away with a face that was blushing like a begonia.
"Ying'er, why are you running so fast? I've called you several times." Yun Fu, who was in the garden, saw her figure and called her several times behind her, but she didn't hear her, so she walked quickly After catching up with her, he grabbed her wrist, complaining a little bit.
Wei Yingzhi withdrew her wrist as if being pricked by a needle, and stammered in a rare way: "Do, what are you doing, pulling, pulling, pulling."
"What's the matter with you? Your face is so red? Could it be that you are sick?" Yun Fu asked without answering, and even stretched out his hand to test the temperature on her forehead.
Before his hand touched her, she saw her step back several times 'thump-dump', as if she was afraid of being touched by him.
Yunfu's hand suddenly stopped in the air in embarrassment, seeing the girl who had been close to him suddenly avoid him like a snake, he felt uncomfortable at all.
Wei Yingzhi also realized that she was overreacting, cleared her throat, stammered and said again: "Ah, I'm not a kid anymore, so, what kind of chattering looks like, if people see It’s not good for you and me. Otherwise, if your wife who has never passed the family saw it, wouldn’t it be, wouldn’t it be hard to tell if you have a mouth?”
"I don't have an unmarried wife!" Yun Fu's face darkened unhappily.
"Although there is no one right now, there will be one day! Didn't the imperial concubine choose a wife for you?" Wei Yingzhi said in a low voice.
In fact, she herself didn't know what was going on, and when she mentioned Yunfu's unmarried wife, she always felt a little uncomfortable. But she didn't care too much, she just thought it was just that she wasn't used to it for a while, after all, she and Yunfu grew up together and spent the longest time with each other.
Yun Fu pursed his lips, his mind running fast, thinking whether he should take the opportunity to pierce the window paper? Otherwise, this girl is always unable to see each other's intentions, and always treats herself like a younger brother, which is really a little aggrieved.
However, before he could come up with a result, Wei Yingzhi had already turned around and ran away.
He shook his head helplessly, and decided to find an opportunity to express his feelings to his aunt first. Considering how much his aunt loves him and Ying'er, he should be very supportive of this marriage.
At least, Ying'er can no longer be misunderstood that he is going to be engaged to another girl.
"Miss Yingzhi hasn't come to the palace for a while, right? It's strange that the concubine's sister feels that everything she eats these days is tasteless." On this day, Wei Yingzhi got the order of Concubine Rui to enter the palace, and then she accompanied Concubine Rui to talk for a while, The third prince's biological mother, Concubine Li, came and joked as soon as she saw her.
Wei Yingzhi saluted and greeted her obediently, Concubine Li pulled her and said a few words before letting her go.
"Sister Ying'er!" Just as she was following the maid to the side hall, she suddenly saw the crown prince walking towards her and calling out to her.
"Brother Prince!" Wei Yingzhi's eyes lit up immediately, and her voice unconsciously became louder.
The prince was used to her burning eyes, and asked with a smile: "Today, I went to the palace to talk with my concubine, why didn't you come and look for me?"
"Who doesn't know that the elder brother of the crown prince is currently choosing the sister-in-law of the princess. If I go to look for you and let the future sister-in-law of the princess misunderstand, it will be better." Wei Yingzhi replied with a smile.
"Poor girl, where is the concubine's sister-in-law!" The prince was helpless.
With a sudden thought, he said unhurriedly: "It's Yunfu, mother has already selected girls from several families for him."
"How many families? Could it be possible to marry only one?" Wei Yingzhi's eyes widened.
"Hey, these are just candidates, and one has to be chosen in the end." The prince cleared his throat and explained.
"Which girls are they from? Tell me about it, too?" She tried her best to ignore the discomfort in her heart, and asked curiously.
"One is Sun Shoufu's second-in-law granddaughter, who is the same age as Yunfu. This girl grandson is quite talented and learned, and she is gentle and elegant. Yunfu is so knowledgeable. I think I will like this kind of talented girl."
"This is not good, don't choose this one. Sun Yayan is very noble and always likes to overwhelm others. If Yunfu marries her, she may be bullied in the future! No, no, change one." Wei Yingzhi shook her head. Like a rattle.
"There is some truth in what you said, but it doesn't matter, there are more." The prince nodded seriously, but his eyes were full of smiles, and he said slowly, "The second one, is it? The eldest daughter of the Zhen Guo General's Mansion. This Murong girl is dignified, her words and deeds are good, and she will definitely be a virtuous wife of Yunfu in the future."
"No, no, no, Murong Wenyan is a good-looking person, but she's good at putting on airs when it's hard to say. Yunfu is the most sincere person. If she becomes a husband and wife, she might be tricked by her!" Wei Yingzhi once again veto.
"It doesn't matter, the third one..." The prince's eyes became more smiling, and he unhurriedly announced the new candidate again, but Wei Yingzhi rejected them all without exception for one reason or another.
He thought it was very interesting, so he couldn't help being wicked, randomly picked out a few famous daughters, and deliberately made them "the ones chosen by the imperial concubine for Yunfu", but no surprise, Wei Yingzhi rejected it again.
"It's okay, there's another one..." He almost couldn't hide the smile on his face, and quickly put his mouth together and coughed to block the corners of his mouth that were rising more and more.
"Anything else?" Wei Yingzhi looked at him suspiciously.
How many girls did the imperial concubine choose? This one after another is endless.
"This is the last one, you can't find anything wrong with it!" The prince said with affirmation.
Wei Yingzhi snorted softly through her nose: "Tell me and listen!"
"This last one is the only prostitute daughter of Uncle Jing'an..."
ah? Wei Yingzhi's eyes widened even wider.
Cousin Hui? No way? !
Seeing her eyes wide open for a long time, but unable to utter a word of rebuttal, the prince finally couldn't help laughing, flicked her forehead suddenly, and said with a smile: "What? Bad girl You can't find anything wrong this time, can you?"
Wei Yingzhi muttered for a long while before she said unwillingly: "My cousin Hui is the best girl in the world...but..."
"But what? But you still don't want her to marry Yunfu?" The prince smiled and said what she thought.
