When Wei An returned to his own place, Nanny Wang had already come to greet him, her tone a little indignant and complaining: "Another leave, I don't know why you are so confident!"
It's not Nanny Li who is fearless, but Princess Changning.
Wei An knew it very well and sighed almost inaudibly. Perhaps she had been discouraged too many times, or perhaps the wound in her heart had become numb. When she thought of her mother's cold treatment, she felt less sad recently.
After sighing, she waited for the two new maids to kowtow. She nodded gently to them, thought for a moment and said, "If you follow me this time, you may not be able to see your family for a year or two. You can go back and stay for a few more days while you are still at the farm. When you are ready to go back, come in and serve me."
They were given names respectively. The older one was named Su Ping and the younger one was named Wen Xiu.
After they went out, Wei An met their mother again.
They were all family generals who had followed the master to guard the pass in Jizhou. However, who would have thought that the master would pass away before they could achieve success, and the days that followed became difficult.
Who would have thought that they would never be able to return to the capital and would have to dig for food in the mud, but unexpectedly such a great thing would happen to them. The two women were so happy that they grabbed their skirts and kowtowed to Wei An nervously.
Wei An gently asked them to stand up, stared at them for a while, and then asked Wen Xiu's mother: "Aunt Zhang, do you think that Aunt Li went to the house next door to yours?"
Aunt Zhang nodded hurriedly: "Yes, you don't know, Li Ma has a sister who lives next door to us. We have never broken off contact for so many years. Her sister is not working in our village, but in the neighboring village of Lijiazhuang..."
That was the villa of Wei An's mother, Princess Changning.
Wei An smiled knowingly and said, "She has been asking for leave every day these days. I am afraid that something happened to her family but I dare not trouble the master, so I just asked in vain."
Aunt Zhang was amazed that someone as arrogant as the princess could give birth to a daughter as approachable as Wei An, and she laughed: "How could that be possible? Miss, you don't know that her son-in-law has returned from Hongdu. I saw him yesterday. The whole family is fine, don't worry!"
After returning from Hongdu, Wei An said "oh" and chatted with them for a while before sending them out. When Wenxiu and Suping came in and kowtowed to say they wanted to leave, he gently instructed Nanny Wang: "Mammy, take them out together. They are young and their families have not served in the mansion for many years. I am afraid they don't know many rules. Don't let them be blind and know nothing and break taboos."
Nanny Wang responded cheerfully and went out with the two little girls. She did not come back until the evening, but her face looked anxious and confused.
Wei An asked, "What did you find out?"
Seeing that everyone around her was her own people, Madam Wang calmed down and looked at Wei An: "Miss, this is strange, guess who I saw?!" Without waiting for Wei An to ask, she asked and answered herself: "I actually saw Madam Ge! Isn't this strange? Why did Madam Ge come back?! She just went back to Yuzhang!"
Yes, Madam Ge just went back to Yuzhang not long ago, why is she back again
Wei An was a little surprised. She knew the status of Madam Ge around Princess Changning, so she couldn't help but look serious.
Nanny Wang didn't say anything for a while, then she stepped forward to massage Wei An's shoulders: "Don't be afraid..."
Wei An was not afraid. He had died once and had seen countless dead people. He had experienced everything and had nothing to be afraid of. But he still had to clarify his doubts.
In her previous life, Nanny Ge did not return to the capital this year. She had to wait until the old princess passed away before she came back with Princess Changning to attend the funeral. She then left her in the capital and came back again to take her away.
In this life, she returned to the capital quite frequently, and after returning, there was no news at all. She neither notified the old princess nor returned to Dingbei Marquis Mansion... ..
Such a shameful thing could only be caused by one's own background.
Wei An thought about it and felt that if he were the mother, he would probably be very troubled as well. It must be very annoying that a child who is not his biological daughter enjoys the treatment of a legitimate daughter.
She lowered her voice and asked Madam Wang, "Madam, I remember you mentioned once whether Madam Li had a daughter?"
Nanny Li has a daughter. She has said many times that she often cited her daughter as the reason for taking leave.
Nanny Wang nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that she was injured when she gave birth to her daughter, and she couldn't have another child after that. Her husband's family didn't dare to do anything too much because of the princess's concern, but they still bought a son to raise. Their lives became difficult, and later..." Nanny Wang knew that her daughter was no longer the same as before. After a little hesitation, she told Wei An the truth: "Later, Nanny Li's husband died... He died when he was working for the princess. Nanny Li took her daughter to live on her own. She regarded her daughter as important as her life."
It seems that although Nanny Wang is not good at scheming, she is not really so naive as to think everything - Princess Changning is so good to Nanny Li, no wonder Nanny Li is devoted to her.
She thought for a moment and nodded, and told Nanny Wang: "Go and ask where Nanny Li's daughter lives. I can be of use to you."
Although it is still very weak, some things are urgent and must be done.
Nanny Wang responded hesitantly, "But young lady, what's the use of asking? Can we go to her house and ask?"
"I'm not going to ask her." Wei An lowered his eyes: "I'm going to give her something."
Nanny Wang became more and more confused and didn't understand what her daughter wanted to do.
But even though she didn't know what Wei An wanted to do, Nanny Wang still had no doubts and went out to inquire according to Wei An's instructions.
Before Nanny Wang got back any news, Lan He came running in in a panic: "Miss, the second and third masters are here. They arrived just as Zhonggui came to the palace. Now the second and third masters have set up the incense table and are leading Zhonggui to the old lady's room..."
Wei An knew that someone from the palace would come to see Old Madam Wei, so he was not surprised. He calmly instructed Lan He, "They are just here to visit the old lady. It has nothing to do with us. Just control the people below and don't walk around and bump into others."
Wei An had taught all these before. Lan He was flustered for a moment but then she recovered and arranged the things in the yard in an orderly manner. She then came in to help Wei An change his clothes in case the old lady wanted to see him.
