The Third Madam was angry. The originally agreed-upon matter suddenly changed. The duck that was in her mouth flew away. She was so depressed that she couldn't express it. When she saw Wei Yuyou and Wei Yupei coming in affectionately, both of them looked very happy, her heart was sour and painful. She stretched out her hand and poked Wei Yupei's forehead with a finger, feeling very disappointed: "Didn't I teach you how to answer the old lady? Why are you hesitating like that when the time comes?"
Old Madam Wei didn't even need to say a word and just went down the ladder given by Wei Yupei. The Third Madam was so angry that her heart ached.
Just now I felt that Wei An was not so annoying anymore, but now I feel that she is extremely annoying.
Wei Yupei didn't know what she had missed. She opened her big, blinking eyes and pulled at her sleeve: "I, I'm afraid of my grandmother..."
Old Mrs. Wei always seems to be worried lately and is not as patient with them as before. Children are always extra sensitive and can perceive adults' emotions very accurately.
The Third Madam pursed her lips, still angry. Madam Kong gently waved to Wei Yuyou. Wei Yuyou pulled her sister to stand up, and ran to the Third Madam to shake her hand: "Xiao Qi gave me a flower pattern. Mother, can you ask the people in the sewing room to embroider it on the attachment for me?"
Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi, Wei'an, Wei'an, the Third Madam glared at her: "You..."
After thinking about it, he decided it was not a good idea to gossip in front of the child, so he frowned and nodded in agreement. He also reminded her not to wander around and took her sister to Mr. Xue's class.
After they left, the Third Lady showed an angry look: "What kind of medicine did Xiaoqi take that made her suddenly enlightened..." It seemed that everyone in this mansion was conquered by her all of a sudden. She just went to Puci Temple for a trip, did she meet a fairy
It was Madam Kong who had eaten more and had more experience. Seeing that she was beginning to lose her temper, she sighed, "What are you arguing with her about? The princess sent people to the mansion to deliver festival gifts, and even the things given to Wu Niang and Pei Jie'er in our room were more elaborate and detailed than those given to her. Can't you see the trick here?"
She saw the Third Madam suddenly look up as if she had figured something out, and a soothing smile appeared on her face: "So you should be happy, isn't it? The more the old lady wants to praise the Seventh Miss, the more she slaps the princess in the face? This is clearly telling the princess that I want to praise someone you despise... We all know what happened back then, and what about the lives of the whole family? The cousin who was raised as a daughter died so miserably. In the end, wasn't it because of the Fifth Master and the princess? This hurdle cannot be overcome."
Only those who are older and have experienced this will understand how sad it is to see the young die before the old lady. At that time, the old lady was seriously ill and almost passed away. It was Emperor Longqing who sent the imperial physician down and said that if the disease could not be cured, the imperial physician would be killed as well. Only then was the person rescued from the hands of the King of Hell.
The Third Lady shuddered, remembering the Third Master's grief-stricken look at that time, and the Third Master's expression when he said that the mansion was only supported by the old lady, and if the old lady died, the Wei family would all be wiped out. She shuddered hard.
She couldn't say any more. She quickly gathered her thoughts and shifted her attention elsewhere: "Could it be that the princess did this on purpose? Did she do the opposite and deliberately let Xiao Qi be the middleman?"
"I can't do it." Madam Kong walked around behind her and pinched her neck. "You are an old lady. Is the princess really distancing herself from Miss Seven or is she just pretending? Can't you tell? Besides, if it is a show, it is too real. Think about it carefully. Has the princess ever paid attention to her in all these years?"
Never.
The Third Madam was a little dazed. One year, Xiaoqi had a high fever, and the old Princess Zhennan went to pray in person and brought back a statue of Medicine Buddha, but it was smashed to pieces by Princess Changning.
It was the first time that Princess Changning returned to Beijing from Jianzhou, and she brought back Xiaoqi, who had never seen her grandmother. However, her words and actions seemed to show that she hated this daughter. When Xiaoqi cried, she scratched her face with her nails. The old Princess Zhennan even had a big fight with her...
They don't look like mother and daughter, but more like... enemies.
The Third Lady is also a mother herself. If she put herself in her daughter's shoes, she would be happy to do so without any complaints, let alone if her daughter wanted her to hold her and swim with her all night long, let alone if she was crying because she was not feeling well.
Thinking of this, she felt relieved, and her tone was a little sympathetic: "You are right, Xiaoqi is also a poor child. Her father doesn't love her and her mother doesn't care about her. It's inevitable that her mother has to take care of her more."
After thinking it through, she realized that since her niece was going to move, she should naturally do something to show her appreciation. She discussed it seriously with Madam Kong and prepared a moving gift for Wei An. She also asked Madam Kong to tell Wei Yuyou and Wei Yupei to prepare gifts as well.
Since the old lady wanted to make Princess Changning unhappy, she, as a daughter-in-law, of course had to be considerate of her elders' feelings.
The Third Madam was in a state of panic. The Second Madam was also in shock when she heard the news. She didn't care about her son who had just come in. She raised her voice and asked again, "Who wants to move into He'an Courtyard?"
Her own daughter is already married, so she naturally doesn't care who enters He'an Courtyard. But even if she doesn't care, she knew that the old lady had chosen Wei Yupei. How come it was replaced by Wei Qi in just a few days
Why was it Wei Qi
Wei Kun sat down beside the Second Madam and said with some doubt: "Xiao Qi seems to be a little different." His jade pendant hung at his waist, and he looked handsome. Seeing the Second Madam looking at him, he smiled and said: "It's good to be able to move in. I was always worried that Xiao Qi would be lawless and learn bad things."
"Who is going to learn bad things?" The second master came in after lifting the curtain. Seeing that the second wife and Wei Kun had both stood up, he waved to them and asked them to sit down. Hearing that they were talking about Wei An, he nodded in agreement: "That's right. It's not a good thing for such a young girl to be left without anyone to teach her. Mother has been worried for so many years and now she is willing to let Xiao Qi accompany her..."
The second wife coughed a few times quickly. These were all taboos and could not be talked about.
The second master also reacted and smiled and told Wei Kun: "In this case, you should prepare a gift for your sister. I heard about what happened in Puci Temple. This little girl was wronged. Don't always think about her bad points. She is still a child."
He is really just a child. The discord between adults should not involve the child. The Second Master has always been caring towards Wei An.
The update is awkward not because I don't have any drafts nor because I don't want to update, but because the results are too poor, so the time of release is awkward. If the public period is to be extended, the update will have to be slower. If the public period is not extended, it will basically be a dead end... ...
So the author is a little confused and struggling.
