Wei Yangqing gave Wei Yupo a pair of jade bi disks. The jade was transparent and moist, and if you looked closely, you could see the dark and light colors flowing inside. When the light shone on them, they shone brilliantly. Aunt Yao stood up and waved her hands: "This is too expensive... She is a child, she doesn't need such expensive things..."
Aunt Yao was really worried. Her daughter was already getting more and more arrogant. If Wei Yangqing continued to indulge her like this, she would probably get even more arrogant...
Wei Yangqing waved his hand and said, "What's the big deal? They're just toys for kids."
Now he only has this daughter by his side, which is considerate.
He thought about it and sighed with regret.
Aunt Yao couldn't say the words that were already on her throat. She frowned and went to her daughter's room in person. She couldn't get anything out of her, so she had to tell her to be careful with her words and actions when she went to Puci Temple the next day and not to cause any trouble.
Wei Yupo's eyes were full of impatience. She curled the corners of her mouth coldly without saying a word. After she finished speaking, she ordered people to prepare clothes and jewelry for the next day without frowning.
Wei An went to the Huairen Marquis's Mansion today...
I wonder how the 23-year-old unmarried old girl from the Ding family would feel when she sees the stepdaughter of King Zheng who appeared out of nowhere
As she thought about this, her mood improved a little and she was finally able to close her eyes.
Nanny Wang was also talking to Wei An about the girl from the Ding family: "She is very polite..." She quickly took off the hairpins on Wei An's head and asked Wei An with a smile: "Do you think she is easy to get along with?"
The Ding family’s daughter is 23 years old and still unmarried, but she has a very good personality. At least throughout the whole day, she was very close to Wei An.
This closeness is not perfunctory or excessive, and does not make people feel uncomfortable.
She is a person who knows her limits, no wonder King Zheng agreed to this marriage.
Wei An smiled, not knowing what to say. After a moment, he nodded: "It's easy to get along with..."
It’s just that the girl from the Ding family is easy to get along with, but her aunt, Mrs. Qinghe, is not. And if the girl from the Ding family has no opinion of her own, it will not be good for her in the future.
When she finished washing up and came out, Yuqing just walked in and said to her softly, "Miss, there is an urgent letter from Zhao Qi. Lin Yue is waiting at the second gate..."
Wei An was a little surprised. He frowned, put on his clothes again, thought for a while, and then asked someone to call Lin Yue to the flower hall in front.
Lin Yue did not try to hide anything. As soon as he saw Wei An, he went straight to the point: "Miss, Zhao Qi asked me to bring you a message. He said there will be a ceremony tomorrow, so you should be careful."
This was a bit confusing, Wei An raised his eyebrows and asked him, "That's it?"
Lin Yue was also confused. He scratched the back of his head and nodded, "That's what Zhao Qi said. He also said it was just a coincidence that it was the day when Prince Duan lit the eternal lamp... That's all he knew."
Wei An hummed, tapped his fingers on the table, and nodded to Lin Yue.
Nanny Wang walked back with Wei An, shaking her head worriedly, "What are we being cautious about? This Zhao Qi doesn't even know how to explain things clearly. He's so confused, making people feel uneasy."
Wei An went over everything that had happened in the past few days in her mind, but she was not very worried. Tomorrow's ceremony at Puci Temple was held for Wei Jie to see Chen Mianmian, so she had to go.
However, in order to avoid the embarrassment of a failed matchmaking, Mrs. Chen deliberately used a blessing ceremony as an excuse, and the people invited were all close friends and relatives. The Chen family was noble, and the Wei family was honorable. Just for these two families, Puci Temple had to put in a lot of effort to receive them.
Apart from those nobles who could not be stopped by Puci Temple, what else could happen
The moonlight outside was bright. Nanny Wang lowered the window and asked Yuqing and Lanhe to wait on her. She got up early the next day and waited for Wei An to wash up before she asked her, "Should we tell the prince about this?"
At least be prepared.
Wei An smiled meaningfully: "Yes, Mammy, please give me a letter."
She entered the house, greeted Mrs. Wei first, and then accompanied Mrs. Wei for dinner before helping her to the second gate to take the car.
Master Wei Er and Master Wei San were not available, so they asked Wei Kun and Wei Jie, who were on leave, to escort the women in the family out.
Mrs. Wei got into the car and looked at Wei An and asked, "It was late last night, and someone sent you a message? What happened?"
Since the restoration of the title of Marquis of Dingbei, the mansion has been very strict with rules and regulations. Keys have to be locked everywhere. The keys had already been locked at night, and if someone entered the second gate, it would inevitably alarm Old Lady Wei and the Third Lady.
Wei An poured a cup of tea for Old Madam Wei and said softly, "One of my shopkeepers outside sent me a message saying that someone from Prince Duan's Mansion went to Puci Temple to light the eternal lamp today."
It is common to donate money to temples and Taoist temples to light eternal lanterns on birthdays. The nobles have a custom of donating money to every temple. Old Madam Wei frowned and said, "You specially went there in the middle of the night just to report this news?"
It seems strange no matter how you look at it.
Wei An's expression remained calm, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
This is probably not an ordinary eternal lamp.
She smiled, held her hand and blew away the foam on it, and told Mrs. Wei honestly: "I'm afraid this matter has something to do with me."
She didn't wait for the old lady to ask, and shook her head again: "My people don't know what's going to happen, but they heard a few words and came to remind me."
Old Mrs. Wei frowned in annoyance.
The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop.
These people really think their lives are too quiet.
There was silence in the carriage for a moment before Old Lady Wei made a decision: "You don't have to go to Puci Temple. I'll talk to Ajie when the time comes."
But it was originally agreed that she would bring Chen Mianmian to appear in front of Wei Jie in a 'reasonable' manner, just right, but not frivolous enough to ask them to meet and take a look at each other.
Although they were close friends, Wei Jie grew up in another place after all.
Wei An shook her head: "Grandma, if I don't go, their plan will change. What if it affects my brother and you? It's better to go..." She looked calmer and her tone was steady: "You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. Besides, after all my guesses, I actually have some idea in my mind - the people I have offended, or the people who want to take revenge on me, are actually not many."
There are only a few people who want her dead, so it's actually very easy to count.
And she was also itching to do something - she was about to leave Beijing, and there was plenty of time for people to forget how much she had been in the limelight. At this moment, no matter what trouble she caused, when she returned to Beijing after a while, these people would have almost forgotten it.
