Wei An seemed to be thinking about something. After thinking for a while, he said, "I understand." Seeing that Chen Mianmian hung her head and didn't dare to raise it at all, he said softly to Wei Jie, "Fourth brother, in this case, we will go back first."
After a pause, remembering the excuse he had made when he came out, he asked him again, "We want to fly a kite on the wide rock wall on the mountainside, but we didn't bring any when we came... Can Fourth Brother help me think of a solution?"
Wei Jie was a brother who doted on his sisters very much. He was also kind and pleasant to Wei Yupo. He would do whatever he could.
In the past, in order to make his sisters happy, he would make kites himself, which didn't take long. Hearing Wei An say this, he laughed and said, "What's so difficult about this? It just so happened that when I came up the mountain today, I saw someone selling kites on the street. I saw a few good designs, so I specially left them for you. I'll send someone to get them out now."
Chen Mianmian's face turned even redder, and her head almost buried in her neck.
It turns out that Wei Jie is such a friendly brother. He is so good to his sisters and has not been influenced by Princess Changning. It seems that he must be no worse in treating his wife.
Seeing that Wei Jie left after Wei An agreed, she breathed a sigh of relief, tugged at Wei An's sleeve, and asked her without caring about being shy, "Is he always so good-tempered?"
Wei An pursed his lips.
To talk about Wei Yulong, she really had no feelings for him - all the kindness she showed in her previous life seemed more like alms now. But for Wei Jie, she always wished the best for him.
Because he was the only one who had never had any bad thoughts towards her, whether in the previous life or this life.
She paused, then nodded with a firm look and a hint of smile: "Yes, there is no one with a better temper than my fourth brother."
"He's not just good-tempered." Wei An thought for a moment and added, "He won't look down on girls, and he won't think that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent..."
The conversation had gone a little off track, so she stopped talking, listened to Chen Mianmian's questions, and tried her best to answer them.
The Chen family is an excellent marriage. Censor Chen has a long-term vision and is a clear-headed and decisive person. No matter what happens in the future, he can always be counted on.
It will also be of great benefit to Wei Jie.
Chen Mianmian had no other problems except being a little naive. Moreover, after what happened in the past, even this harmful naivety was changed by Chen Mianmian.
Wei An really thought that it would be a great thing if these two people could get together.
She led Chen Mianmian around the corridor and into the small garden, then stopped talking - if she went any further, they would end up back at the grape trellis. If she continued talking, it would reveal her identity, which would be bad for Chen Mianmian and her brother's reputation.
But when they got under the grape trellis, they didn't see Wei Yupo and Peng Lingwei. They looked at each other and stood there in a daze.
Lan He had been waiting the whole time. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Wei An coming. She hurried over to greet him, unable to control her anxiety, and told her, "Miss! Just now... just now, the Fourth Young Master sent someone to send a letter in, saying that one of our boxes outside is missing. They're afraid that your things are missing, so he asked you to go out and take a look. You were not here, and the people outside were urging her to come, so the Eleventh Miss went out..."
Wei An’s right eyelid twitched suddenly.
Even Chen Mianmian noticed something was wrong - the Fourth Young Master, Wei Jie was the Fourth Young Master, but Wei Jie was with them just now, how could he send a message in and ask Wei An to leave at the same time? !
Although the Wei family and his mother had reached a tacit understanding and wanted their children to meet and get to know each other's temperament, they must have discussed it privately. How could such a mistake occur
Unless it's not a mistake...
Wei An had already calmed Chen Mianmian down. He squeezed her palm and calmly told her, "Mianmian, since Fourth Brother said so, I'll go out and help take a look. You go sit in the back first, I'll be back later, okay?"
Chen Mianmian knew something was wrong and nodded quickly.
She knew Wei An's abilities, so she didn't dare to cause trouble for him, nor did she dare to ask any more questions. She turned back with her heart beating fast.
But my heart really can't calm down.
Who on earth used Wei Jie's name to trick Wei Yupo and Peng Lingwei away
If something really happened to Wei Yupo and Peng Lingwei...
By then, Wei Jie will not be able to escape the connection - after all, he is using Wei Jie's name, and can enter unimpeded, so he must be a member of the Wei family!
By then...
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. She could no longer control her panic. Her lips turned pale as she instructed Rui'er, "Go... go to the front and see what my mother and the others are doing."
In the front hall, Madam Chen was just finishing her last ceremony. She stood up with the help of a maid, a little out of breath. She drank a sip of tea to calm herself down, and smiled at Madam Wei and Madam Mei: "I am really sorry for tiring you all."
Mrs. Mei had agreed to be the middleman, and seeing this, she shook her head and said, "What are you talking about? Our family is a close one, and in this kind of situation, since you don't have a sister-in-law to help you, it's natural for us to come and help."
The two men helped Mrs. Wei to sit down. Just as they were about to order the servants to serve vegetarian food and snacks, a maid came in and reported that the Princess of Chang'an had sent someone to deliver some vegetarian food.
Mrs. Chen's face was full of doubts and she was quite bewildered. Logically speaking, since her family was holding such a ritual, and knew about Xin'er's close relationship, she would have sent some vegetarian food, which was understandable.
But the key point is that Princess Chang'an had no dealings with the Chen family before.
And they didn't send any invitations, so why did they send vegetarian food for no reason
Old Mrs. Wei frowned subconsciously.
Today, in addition to the Peng family being an accident, Princess Chang'an's family is another accident-----and which of these two families is the one that Wei An needs to be careful of
Her heart sank, but she didn't show it to Madam Peng. Instead, she smiled and agreed, "Your family is so proud that even the Princess Chang'an's family sent vegetarian food."
This is indeed a face-saving measure for the Chen family.
But Mrs. Chen frowned, gave a few instructions, and sent the maid away.
After a while, the maid came back in quickly, stood by with her hands hanging down, and said softly: "To answer Madam, today is the day to light the eternal lamp for the birthday of Prince Duan... Prince Duan's mansion donated incense money to light the eternal lamps everywhere, and also held a festival at Donglin Temple. Princess Chang'an and Princess Changying both went there. Since they knew that our family was also in Puci Temple, they sent vegetarian food."
Donglinguan.
In addition to the Puci Temple, which is still very popular, there is also the Donglin Temple, which is indeed highly respected...
Is it really such a coincidence that they held a ritual here and chose Donglin Temple as the place for the ritual
