Lan He's mother was extremely happy. She knew that there would be many benefits in the future after adopting this daughter, but she didn't expect that the benefits would start now. Although she always had some utilitarian thoughts in the beginning, everyone would have a better temper in front of the God of Wealth. She took Yuqing back home, took Yuqing to recognize all the relatives in the family, and then she was busy arranging a room for Yuqing.
Yuqing was a little flattered. Lanhe's mother gave her so many things, and the room she decorated for her was also very good, with all the furnishings and even a bed.
She used to go back to the small courtyard where her brother lived during holidays. She had nothing and could only squeeze on the kang. For someone who has never had anything, even a little bit will feel that it is too much.
Lan He knew what was in her heart. Seeing that she was uneasy, she pulled her and said with a smile: "As expected, the girl is right. You are just too naive. What's the matter? We are all family. My mother's intention may not be so pure at the beginning, but people always have feelings. The old lady and the girl have spoken, so she treats you as a proper daughter. I dare not say that she will treat us both exactly the same, but at least she will have everything she should have. Don't always be so uneasy. After all, these are all given to you by the girl."
Yuqing had nothing to say. She clasped her hands together, chanted a Buddhist prayer, and whispered, "I know this is all thanks to the girl..." In any case, this arrangement made her feel a lot more relaxed.
When Hanbo's uncle and aunt came to propose marriage, it was Lanhe's parents who came out to entertain them.
Lan He's mother was busy running around, and negotiated the marriage with Han Bo's uncle and aunt in a warm but not too warm manner. She also decided on the betrothal gift and dowry, and treated Han Bo's uncle very well.
Han Bo's uncle and aunt knew at first that Yuqing was just an ordinary girl. Although she was favored by Wei An, she had no promising family members and was totally incomparable to Lan He. But when they came back this time, they saw that the girl's family was very polite and generous. The only worries and contempts in their hearts disappeared, and they went out sincerely to buy the betrothal gifts and delivered them to the door.
The betrothal gifts were given in accordance with the customs of the capital city. They included everything that an ordinary family would have, and it was considered quite generous. Li Niang gave a total of three hundred taels of silver, which was enough for an ordinary small family to marry off their daughter.
Lan He's mother took the money and used it all on Yuqing's dowry. She bought Yuqing some pure gold jewelry and made a decent bed for her.
There will be many good days ahead, and she won't be like those useless people who only care about the little money in front of them.
Yuqing was even more grateful, but before she could be happy for a few days, she heard the news from outside - her brother was captured by the Jinyiwei.
This was such an unexpected thing that Yuqing was immediately panicked and hurriedly ran to Wei An for help.
Although her brother was extremely useless, he was her only relative. She knelt in front of Wei An and kowtowed, begging him for help.
Wei An did not refuse. Although she had vaguely guessed something, she still wrote a letter and gave it to Young Master Lin.
In fact, she shouldn't have done this, because the previous incident with Young Master Lin had been used by others to accuse her of having an impure relationship with Young Master Lin. Shen Chen also reminded her not to have any private contact with Young Master Lin anymore.
But she had no choice but to do so.
Young Master Lin always has a reason for arresting people, especially those under her. Since there is a reason, she needs to know it.
Go ask Shen Chen
There has been no news about Shen Chen in the past few days. After she returned to Dingbei Marquis Mansion, there was no news from him either. He didn't even come to Dingbei Marquis Mansion to ask about her.
Wei An regretted at first that he was too unkind and pretentious, but later on, he became angrier and angrier - his adoptive mother became more and more aggressive because he let her off lightly several times, and even hurt her relatives. She just wanted an explanation, so what was wrong
Just because she was angry about this matter, Shen Chen didn't come
It’s just right that he didn’t come. Wei An came to his senses, gritted his teeth and asked someone to call Lin Yue in, and asked him to deliver the letter to Xie Liangcheng first, and then ask Xie Liangcheng to give it to Young Master Lin.
No matter how you look at it, reputation is something that needs to be taken into consideration, and it would be much better if Xie Liangcheng were to deliver it. Besides, asking Xie Liangcheng to deliver it also means that Shen Chen will know about it.
Xie Liangcheng is working for Shen Chen now. When she sends the letter to Young Master Lin, Xie Liangcheng will definitely not hide it from Shen Chen. If Shen Chen is interested, he should know what she means.
She received the news in the afternoon.
However, the person who came was not Ying Kai who was beside Young Master Lin, nor was he someone he trusted. The person who replied to the message was Xie Liangcheng.
Xie Liangcheng followed Wei Jie in. When he saw Wei An, he dismissed the other servants in the hall and said bluntly, "The reason why Yuqing's brother was arrested this time is because Yuqing's brother accepted money from Princess Linjiang, so when Yuqing returned home, he wanted to sell Yuqing out..."
Although he had guessed it a long time ago, when he heard the truth, Wei An couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth in sarcasm, and sighed at Princess Linjiang's good intentions and perseverance.
She hummed, smiled and asked, "And then?"
These words alone are not enough to mobilize the Jinyiwei to arrest people, not to mention that the person who was directly alarmed was Young Master Lin.
Thinking of the case that Young Master Lin was recently ordered to investigate, Wei An frowned even more tightly and asked in a cold voice, "Could Yuqing's brother be related to Bao Ge'er's case?"
Although he promised Yuqing to protect her brother's life, if Yuqing's brother is really so confused that he dares to get involved in such a thing, then the life of such a confused and cruel person is not so precious.
Seeing her unusually low mood and bad complexion, Xie Liangcheng coughed and said, "Not really, he is not that useful yet. The large sum of money given to him by Princess Linjiang was for him to do other things."
He paused, then said, "After he received the money, he searched for a long time in Yuqing's room and found some of your handkerchiefs... and gave them to Princess Linjiang."
Handkerchief
Wei An reacted immediately and couldn't help but sneered: "No wonder there was a handwritten letter from Young Master Lin before. It turns out that he was waiting for me here. The princess is really thoughtful and considerate. These things can be planned so carefully and rigorously."
But it really is a good plan, it kills three birds with one stone, it alienates the relationship between others and discredits Lin Sanshao and Wei An... (To be continued)
