Shen Chen ran to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion. The people in the Linjiang Prince Mansion thought that he was too unmannerly. Even the Wei family themselves disliked him for his lack of manners.
Old Madam Wei did not allow Wei An to go out to see him, and sent Ming Jing and Wei Jie out: "Tell him that this is a different time, and although the marriage has been arranged, he is still an unmarried daughter. If he comes here so often, it will be difficult for others to say anything to him, so we should tell him to tell you what he wants to say, or ask the matchmaker to tell him."
In fact, everyone knows that Shen Chen came here for Wei An, so what else can't he ask others to do
But the one thing is that no one can replace Wei An.
Princess Zheng coughed softly, and seeing Wei An lowering his head and blushing, she couldn't help but smile.
Wei An really couldn't help but curse Shen Chen in his heart.
I just met him a few days ago, and I don't know why he came here in such a hurry.
Old Madam Wei sent Ming Jing and Wei Jie out, who were trying not to laugh, and turned to talk to Madam Wu about serious matters: "How is it, did the Chen family reply?"
If Wei An wanted to get married, her brother Wei Jie would definitely have to bring her back first. After all, although Wei An was listed under the name of King Zheng, everyone still thought she was the daughter of Wei Yangqing, so it was better for her to abide by the rules.
Fortunately, the marriage with the Chen family has never been delayed. The wedding ceremony has already started in the middle of last year, and now, only the last one of the six gifts is left.
The Fifth Lady was new to the family, and she was a little scared to take over the household affairs. She was even more overwhelmed to be in charge of such a big matter. Seeing the old lady asking, she still said, "My in-laws have replied to the letter, saying that since they have already asked the master to approve it, then we should follow our date."
They had set the date as April 10th, which meant there were still more than 20 days left. They had already done all the other formalities, so there was no need to rush. When Old Madam Wei heard what Madam Wu said, she said, "Then let's set the date and prepare everything."
Everything that needed to be prepared has been almost done. The Second Madam and the Third Madam were very understanding. Before the betrothal, the Fifth House had no mistress, so matters were in charge of them. Now that the Fifth Madam is here, it is natural that they will be handed over to her.
Although the head of the household had indeed enjoyed some benefits over the years, the second and third wives had figured things out after going through so many things. They knew that as long as the old lady was around, the family would not be divided, and if it could not be divided, they would have their share.
The fifth brother is a kind-hearted man, and his new wife seems to be sensible. Even if the old lady passes away and the family wants to divide up, the affection in this family will still be there, and their share will not be reduced.
After thinking this through, they did not embarrass the Fifth Madam on this household matter at all, and quickly handed her the detailed gift list, so that she would have an idea in her mind, and reassured her: "The old lady knows everything, and the Chen family is also polite, and A-Jie is also easy to deal with, so you don't have to be too nervous."
The Fifth Lady knew the good intentions of the Second and Third Ladies, so she asked Old Lady Wei truthfully: "The wedding date has been set, and the woman is coming to measure the house for furniture. I was thinking, should we set their new house in Hefeng Tower?"
That was Wei Yumin's previous residence. Now that it has been cleaned up, it is indeed suitable to be used as a new house.
Old Madam Wei nodded and agreed, and then said, "If that's good, then after the eight characters are offered, we can ask the Chen family to come and measure the dimensions."
Everyone responded.
Old Madam Wei smiled at Princess Zheng and said, "There are so many things going on at home, but I'd rather have you listen to these trivial matters."
Princess Zheng shook her head and laughed, "How could that be? Although there are few people in our family, we will have to learn in the future. I am too busy to learn from you, so how can I dare to complain?"
This is true. Although the population of Prince Zheng's Mansion is small now, there are many social engagements. In addition, when the children grow up and there are more children, it will be inevitable to organize large-scale wedding banquets, and there will be many rules to know.
After all, Miss Ding came from a humble family and became a princess, so she was not familiar with many of the rules.
Mrs. Wei said nothing more, and told the second and third wives, "Since the prince and princess are here today, it's even better. Let's open a few tables today and invite the Prince of Zhennan to come along. Let's have a happy meal together."
In fact, they had already gathered together once last time, but no one would refute Mrs. Wei on such a matter, let alone complain that it was too much. The second and third wives hurriedly agreed, sent someone to inform the front, and took Wei Yangqing's invitation to invite Prince Zhennan to come.
But when the conversation here was almost over, Ming Jing came in again, holding back his laughter, glanced at Wei An, and then reported to Madam Wei: "Madam, the Marquis said that he has something important to see my sister... .. Please make it convenient for me."
What's the important matter? If it's really important, according to Shen Chen's personality, he wouldn't wait any longer. How could he stay outside so honestly? Everyone smiled kindly.
Wei An had never been laughed at by so many people before. He didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt his face turn red all the way to his neck.
Fortunately, Old Lady Wei and Princess Zheng were kind-hearted. Seeing that she was blushing so much, they found an excuse to send her away.
But Old Lady Wei still said: "Although we are at home, we still have to be careful. If there is nothing important, come back early after you finish talking."
She paused, then continued, "Since he's here, let him stay and have dinner with us."
Wei An agreed, didn't even dare to raise his head, and hurried out.
Shen Chen was waiting in the flower hall in front. Although he was a marquis, he was a junior. Secondly, there was something going on in the marquis's mansion. Wei Yangqing had gone to talk to Prince Zheng, and the second and third masters were there, so there was no one to accompany him. He sat quietly in the armchair, which was rare.
When Wei An walked in, he saw him staring at the teacup in his hand with his head down.
His profile was handsome in the sunlight, without any greasy air of a playboy. Wei An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and stepped gently into the door.
Shen Chen heard it immediately, looked up and saw her, smiled and stood up, and said very calmly: "You are here?"
Wei An hummed, sat down in the chair next to him, and tilted his head to look at him: "God said, it's not appropriate for an engaged couple to meet like this. I told you to be more disciplined in the future."
Shen Chen smiled: "I know. My uncle and A Jing told me these things before. How can I not obey the old lady's orders? But, the law is nothing more than human feelings. In my situation, there are some things that I can't do without saying them myself."
That's right, otherwise, would Hanbo and the others be asked to deliver the message? The old lady would then feel that he was disrespectful. (To be continued)
