Wei An happily let Nanny Wang help her put on her clothes. The smile on her face never changed, but her eyes, which had been shockingly bright, gradually dimmed.
Nanny Wang, who was sorting her clothes, didn't know where to put her hands. Seeing Wei An pretending to be happy even though he was obviously disappointed, she felt like tears were about to fall. The clothes were good, the material was good, but they clearly didn't fit her. She tried on several sets of clothes over and over again, but none of them fit her. They were either too big or too small.
A mother who doesn't even know the size of her own child... Nanny Wang recalled that the steward who had brought back gifts for the Fifth Master and Princess Changning said that Princess Changning specifically asked him to ask Princess Zhennan for two East China Sea pearls to wear on Wei Yulong's shoes. She pursed her lips sadly, stretched out her hand to twist Wei An's clothes at the waistline, and forced a smile: "Here... Nanny will cut off a little bit for you, and then tie a purple tassel here for you. It will definitely fit and look good."
Living a new life, it is still easy to be moved by these little things. Wei An twitched the corners of his mouth in self-mockery and obediently echoed what Wang Ma said: "Whatever Ma says is good..."
As soon as the voice fell, the maid Qiu Yun outside reported cautiously through the curtain: "Miss, the fifth lady and Madam Kong are here..."
This was really a rare thing, as no one had ever stepped through Wei An's door before. Qiu Yun looked at her nose and her heart, but she didn't even dare to breathe - because the spring clouds and summer rain that had dared to breathe before were nowhere to be seen now.
It is very difficult to be the maid of the Seventh Miss. There is no elder in the Fifth House, and the Seventh Miss herself is unpopular and does not know how to behave. During the holidays, among all the courtyards up and down, only the Seventh Miss's courtyard is deserted.
In a place with no future in sight, no one would be willing to work there sincerely, even if the rewards given during festivals were high. What's more, Miss Seven has such a bad temper. She would get angry if there was any mistake.
This time, they didn't even go to Puci Temple, but lost two older maids. The rest of them felt a little bitter.
Nanny Wang dropped Wei An's jade pendant on the table. She frowned in confusion and asked Wei An, "You just came back from the old lady. Did the old lady embarrass the Third Madam?"
Although Nanny Wang always felt that her daughter was Old Lady Wei's biological granddaughter, she knew very well in her heart that her daughter had no status either with her grandmother or with her parents. If the old lady reprimanded the Third Lady, the Fifth Miss's trip now might be to cause trouble.
Wei An shook his head and asked someone to invite Wei Yuyou and Madam Kong in. Before he could ask any questions, Madam Kong spoke up for Madam San and Wei Yuyou: "Madam San didn't expect you to be so generous..."
When the Third Madam went to Old Lady Wei's room, she realized that Wei An had not said a word about what happened in Puci Temple. The previous incident in which he had argued with Madam Chen in a reasonable manner was already frightening enough, and now Wei An's move made the Third Madam's heart sink.
She is not like Wei Yuyou, the spoiled and ignorant young lady. She has seen the changes in Wei An clearly. Although Wei An used to be annoying, he was never in the eyes of the Third Lady. But now Wei An is no longer annoying, but he is really hard to understand, so he cannot be ignored.
Wei An holds the leverage over Wei Yuyou in her hand. As long as she is willing, she has witnesses - not to mention Chunyun and Xia Yu's confessions, Madam Chen Fang and the Second Madam also saw it clearly. Once Wei An goes back on his words, Wei Yuyou will be condemned by all.
Thinking of Third Madam's worries, Madam Kong bent her waist even lower, and her expression became more respectful: "We have always misjudged you. Third Madam said that you and Fifth Lady are sisters, and you have a predestined relationship in your previous life. Although she is your elder sister, she is not as sensible as you..." She ordered the maid to bring a few boxes and smiled to Wei An: "These are all new fabrics and clothes that Third Madam picked for you. Take a look. Do you like them? After March 3rd, it will be Qingming Festival. March 3rd is the Shangsi Festival, and the ninth young lady of the Yanshenggong Mansion will come of age. Our madam wants to ask if you are free?"
This is the benefit of being nice to smart people. Wei An wanted to be a good person, but maybe he was too cunning in his previous life, and he couldn't help but show it in his actions in this life. Although they are a side branch and a side branch of the clan that can't be reached, the third wife is also surnamed Kong after all. Wei An himself has a bad reputation, so naturally he has to think of ways to improve his reputation. And how can there be a better way than one that is praised by the Yanshenggong family
It is a dog from the Yanshenggong family. Others who see it will praise it and say that it is indeed from the Yanshenggong family. It is much more gentle and obedient than dogs from other places, let alone humans.
Wei An would not do business at a loss, even when doing good to others. She smiled and nodded to Madam Kong. Her voice was thin but absolutely natural, like the gurgling of spring water or the clear sound of a flute, which made people happy: "When you are free, if Third Aunt has anything to do, just let me know." She turned around and bit her lip to Wei Yuyou: "I'm sorry for scaring Fifth Sister at Puci Temple..."
There was obvious apology in her eyes, and she took advantage of her good looks. Her eyes like black grapes made Wei Yuyou turn his head away.
Speaking of which, although Wei An was a little annoying, his mother and the others were right. It was one thing for Wei An to be annoying, but setting up a trap to harm others was a sign of poor character. His mother was just embarrassed because her intentions were exposed, but she was so panicked and nervous. However, if Wei An's reputation as a thief really got out, Wei An's life would be ruined.
Thinking of this, Wei Yuyou felt a little guilty. He bit his lips awkwardly. After a long time, he helped Wei An up in a whisper: "It's my fault. I shouldn't have deliberately framed you for taking Chen An's jade ruyi."
Chen An, whose full name is the same as Wei An, and whose nickname is Mian Mian, is the treasure of Mrs. Chen Fang. Thinking of this, Wei Yuyou felt distressed again: "But I really didn't think that much at the time, I just wanted to teach you a lesson..."
After just a few words, Wei Yuyou actually began to tell Wei An all his original plans and current troubles. Madam Kong kept smiling, and after leaving Wei An's yard, she asked Wei Yuyou casually, "Don't you hate Miss Seven the most? You made a scene when I asked you to apologize before, but you opened up to Miss Seven without saying a few words... I saw that Miss Seven didn't say anything nice either?"
Keep asking for collections and recommendations. Should I move my extra chapters to the new book? Sigh... ...
