She had to make excuses for her gaffe: "The clothes my mother gave me were all ill-fitting. She didn't like me..."
If she really wasn't Princess Changning's child, then why did the old Princess Zhennan treat her so well? In her previous life, until her death, the old Princess Zhennan still forced the Prince of Zhennan and the Princess of Zhennan to agree to her marriage with Zhuang Feng, so that they could get by first.
A lot of things don't make sense.
Could it be that in the last life, Princess Changning only discovered at the end that she had made a mistake and found out that she was her biological daughter
She may not be the daughter of Princess Changning, but Princess Changning is definitely the biological daughter of the old Princess Zhennan. The old Princess Zhennan should know everything about her daughter, right
When she was in Jianzhou, all the people who served her were replaced. Qinghe, the only one who was not replaced, was said to have been kicked out for saying something wrong. Wei An was very interested to know what she said wrong.
But there was very little she could do now. She had no money and no one. If she wanted to know anything, she could only try her best to get it from people who might know the truth.
The old Princess Zhennan's face darkened, thinking of how Princess Changning had specially asked Madam Ge to ask for a pair of oriental pearls. She hugged Wei An's hand tightly and said, "She is confused!" She did not make excuses for her daughter's perfunctory response, "She is getting worse and worse as she grows older. She is even worse than a child."
Princess Zhennan lowered her eyes. They were mother and daughter, so of course she could say whatever she wanted. However, her identity was awkward. She had the title of sister-in-law but was not a real sister-in-law. If she rushed to say that she was not a sister-in-law, she would offend two people at once.
So even though she felt that Princess Changning's attitude towards her eldest daughter was too extreme, she still kept her eyes on the nose and her nose on the heart, pretending that she heard nothing.
"Ignore her." The old Princess Zhennan looked at Wei An and said to her with a smile, "Don't worry, the Queen only gave you six Dongzhu in total, and I'll keep the other four for you."
As she spoke, she laughed again: "I still have a lot of things to give you. I just sorted out the storeroom and found a lot of things from my youth. My grandmother is too old to use them, so I'm keeping them for you."
The old Princess Zhennan never concealed her love for her, so much so that everyone in the capital knew that the good-for-nothing Seventh Miss of the Wei family was the lifeblood of the old Princess Zhennan.
Wei An held the old Princess Zhennan's hand with his slightly cold hand, looking at the old Princess Zhennan's white hair, and suddenly remembered that before her grandmother passed away in the previous life, she had forced the Prince of Zhennan and the Princess Zhennan to send the engagement letter to the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion. She was really good to her until the very last moment, and he felt complicated.
After a long while, the old Princess Zhennan let her go and asked her to go to the house to change clothes first. Her clothes were soaked all the way here, but Wei An started crying as soon as she came in, which delayed her changing time.
Princess Zhennan personally led Wei An over. Seeing Lan He was about to take some clothes, she first asked why the maidservant beside Wei An had been replaced. After hearing the whole story, she looked at Wei An thoughtfully, then smiled and stopped Lan He: "Why do you need to bring clothes when you come to this mansion? Clothes for all seasons are already prepared according to An An's measurements." At the same time, she ordered the maidservant to bring in the clothes and show them to Wei An: "These are the patterns selected by the old lady herself. Do you like them?"
They are all very bright colors, goose yellow, willow green, scarlet, crabapple red... ...
Wei An had not been used to wearing such bright colors for a long time. Her experiences in her previous life had made her realize that for a woman whose beauty was conspicuous and who had no one to rely on, beauty was not a gift from God but a punishment.
But it was her grandmother's kindness, and it would be a waste not to wear the dress after it was cut, so she picked out a crabapple red dress made of cicada wing organdy and put it on. After thanking the princess, she went to her grandmother.
After entering the main room, Ziyuan, the maid who was doing needlework under the south window of the main room, stood up. Wei An waved his hand and turned around the antique display cabinet with ease. He saw the six-panel gilt screen with the painting of Green Mountains that he often saw before and heard the old Princess Zhennan and Nanny Chen talking.
"What do you mean he can't come back? I told him last night that An An would come today, and he chose to not come back today?!"
The voice sounded angry.
"Go and get him back! Tell him An An is here, and ask him to pay more attention to me, An An is in a bad mood..."
Wei An stopped and did not take another step, knowing that the old Princess Zhennan was talking about Zhuang Feng.
Her grandmother had always hoped that she would marry Zhuang Feng. Even Zhuang Feng's father had to be very respectful to her grandmother, let alone Zhuang Feng. If she married Zhuang Feng, she would no longer be bullied by her mother-in-law, let alone her husband.
The old Princess Zhennan lowered her voice again: "It's all Pingting's fault. An'an is a thoughtful child. She would feel uncomfortable for a long time if others said a few more rumors. She is still so ignorant..."
Nanny Chen didn't dare to say anything bad about her master, and coaxed the old Princess Zhennan: "It seems that Miss Seven is much calmer than before..."
"I don't know how much injustice she has suffered! Pu Ci'an and the others even slandered her for stealing. This reputation will be spread out and it will be ugly. It is obvious that they are looking at Changning for treating her coldly, and they all want to step on her!"
The old Princess Zhennan recalled the time when Wei An was just born. She heard that Princess Changning had given birth and it was difficult, so she traveled to Jianzhou regardless of her own health. At that time, Wei An was like a kitten, so small that she looked like a feather in her arms. She took care of her day and night until she could fully open her eyes, until she showed her first smile...
After her husband died and her daughter got married, she found for the first time that life still had meaning...
She became angry again: "She gave birth to a child but didn't care about it. I don't know what wrong she has done... I watched An An grow up. I know her personality best. She doesn't say it, but I don't know how much she cares about me. She must have felt so bad that she cried in front of me. She never admitted that Pingting was partial to her before..."
"They don't care, I will." The old Princess Zhennan said firmly: "No one should wrong her. I don't have the face to blame the Wei family. Even if the Ming family kicked An An out of the house, I would not have the face to say anything. But I hope she is willing to let An An out. If she is impatient to see An An, I will take care of her. Didn't you see? A good little girl, what has become of her now?"
Nanny Chen then remembered something and interrupted the old Princess Zhennan: "Speaking of which, you may not believe it yet, but the old lady said... that she wants to let Miss Seven live in her courtyard... and she wants to personally educate her..."
My computer has had its old problem again. The cursor is running around everywhere. No matter what web page I open, the cursor is always at the bottom. Reinstalling the system didn't help. I have only fixed it now. Sorry, the update is late. I will decide when to put it on the shelves before tomorrow. If it is put on the shelves early, there will be a lot of updates. If it is put on the shelves late, I can only listen to the editor's discretion to add more updates~~~ Love you guys, muah.
