When Concubine Yu's reward arrived, Wei An had just washed her face and changed her clothes. She was exhausted after a night of hard work last night, and today she had to deal with so many people, and even gave the Qin family a hard time. She was really exhausted.
Nanny Wang followed her closely. When she saw that she had washed her face, she winked at Yuqing. After Yuqing patiently and carefully combed Wei An's hair into a simple bun and put on makeup, she said, "Miss, what do you think is going on with Madam Qin San? Doesn't she know how offensive her words are? How can there be such a stupid person?"
It was as if she was asking for trouble. Otherwise, who would come to someone's house and bring up something irrelevant? She knew clearly that both Wei An and Concubine Yu didn't like to mention Princess Linjiang at all, but she still came to the house and said that she wanted Wei An and Shen Chen to kowtow to the princess. If this wasn't stupid, what else could it be
Wei An smiled. Seeing himself in the mirror looking brand new, he couldn't help but praise Yuqing's skills with a smile: "Our Yuqing's hair and makeup skills are getting better and better."
Yuqing smiled and pursed her lips, also teasing Wei An: "It's not that my craftsmanship is good, it's that my son-in-law knows how to make people happy. I think it doesn't matter whether the girl puts on makeup or not. Our son-in-law is very caring!"
This is indeed true. Wei An's complexion is very good today. It is so white and rosy that it is as white as snow, which makes people feel pleasing to the eye. When he entered the Tingxuan Hall before, even Concubine Yu couldn't help but ask Wei An what kind of beauty cream he usually uses.
Seeing that Wei An was embarrassed, Nanny Wang hurried to help him out: "Isn't it good that the son-in-law is caring? It's also because our daughter is naturally beautiful..."
As she was talking, Nanny Wang realized something was wrong and quickly spat and said, "We are not in our own house now. We should change our way of addressing the young lady to Madam. It is not allowed to call her the young lady like that. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing if others see us."
Yuqing quickly agreed, and then someone outside said that Lan He had arrived.
Wei An was invited in, and Lan He greeted Wei An with a smile, and told him about the dowry: "She said she was afraid she would have to stay in the palace for a while, so she moved all the things to the warehouse in the back..."
Prince Linjiang originally wanted to let them move back to the mansion after the wedding was completed, but he told Shen Chen yesterday that there were a lot of rumors outside because of the princess' serious illness, so he let them live in the mansion for a while before talking about moving out.
After discussing with Wei An, Shen Chen did not refuse.
Prince Linjiang is already very dissatisfied with her now. If they move out without caring about her, Prince Linjiang will probably be really angry with them.
Because he already knew it in advance, when he heard the news again, Wei An just said "oh" and asked Lan He: "You haven't been seen all day today, where have you been?"
It is true that it takes someone suitable to look after the preparation of the dowry, but Wenxiu and Suping in Wei An's room are both reliable, so they went along as well. Normally, there would not be a need for so many people, so Lan He must have gone to do something else.
Lan He laughed when she heard Wei An ask this. She squatted in front of Wei An, supported her knees and said with bright eyes: "Miss, I'm going to ask for information for you. This mansion..."
Since I have to stay in this palace for a while, I naturally have to find out more about the affairs of this palace, and also know what taboos I cannot violate and what I can do.
Lan He was a shrewd person. Her parents were originally the housekeeper and the housekeeper's wife. She had been immersed in Wei An's life for so long that she knew very well where the intricacies of the inner house were. In just two nights and one day, she had already found out a lot of things.
For example, Concubine Yu and Princess Linjiang were like two tigers fighting each other. Before the princess fell ill, the two of them were like black-eyed chickens and never got well.
For another example, the prince values Concubine Yu very much. It was like this before, and it is even more so now.
She also found out about many taboos in the palace.
Wei An listened to everything patiently, and seemed to doubt his own ears. After a long while, he raised his head and asked Lan He: "What did you just say? You said... ..the prince has some problems? What are the problems?"
Lan He scratched her head, feeling a little embarrassed, but since her daughter had asked, she had to answer, so she coughed and said, "I heard that the prince's temperament has changed drastically recently, and he has become very erratic. Several of his servants have died..."
But this did not match Wei An's impression of Chu Jingwu's character. He was an extremely gentle person, completely different from his brother. How could he be so cruel? He would kill his servants at will
She let out a cry and asked Lan He, "It's such a big fuss, but the palace doesn't care? Concubine Yu doesn't ask, so doesn't the prince ask either?"
Nanny Wang clenched her hands nervously and took over the conversation in confusion: "Yes, so many servants died for no reason, and no one did anything about it? Even if the prince is of noble status, he will be reported to the censors for taking human lives so casually, right?"
Lan He sighed and looked at Wei An worriedly: "We don't know either. Anyway, we heard that no one dares to work for the prince and the prince recently, for fear of losing their lives..."
Everyone was terrified of tigers, so Lan He also felt that it was a bit dangerous. She advised Wei An to stay away from Chu Jingwu as much as possible in the future. Maybe Chu Jingwu's personality really changed because of these things.
If this is really the case, then the person who would be hated the most would definitely be Wei An. It would be better for his own girl to stay as far away from him as possible to avoid being affected by the disaster.
Wei An seemed to be thinking about something, frowning for a long time without saying anything. After a while, he heard the voices outside shouting "Lord", then he raised his head and smiled at Shen Chen sincerely: "You're back?"
Her smile was sweet and crisp, just like the gorgeous yet pure camellia on the branch, with a fatal attraction. Shen Chen hummed, and when he saw that the waiters had automatically retreated, he stepped forward to embrace her, put his head on her shoulder, and asked her: "Did you miss me?"
How long has it been since we last met? Wei An couldn't help but laugh: "How long has it been since you left?"
Shen Chen has become much more clingy than before, and Wei An can't stand him: "You weren't this clingy before..."
When we first met, he was very pretentious. Although he always seemed easy to get along with, he was still clearly arrogant. Just like he was in his previous life, aloof and keeping a distance from everyone.
Shen Chen looked at her with some grievance, as if she had done something extremely evil. (To be continued)
