While Aunt Hua was talking to Old Madam Wei, Wei An came back with an anxious look on his face.
This is very rare. After all, she has always been a person with her own opinions. No matter what happens, she seems to be used to not changing her expression even when faced with a catastrophe.
Old Madam Wei reached out and pulled her to sit down beside her. She gently put the crooked hairpin back on her head and winked at Aunt Hua. After Aunt Hua and everyone else left, she asked her softly, "Did Shen Chen express his feelings to you?"
Wei An hummed, seeming worried.
After a long while, she looked at the flickering candlelight in the room, and said in a daze and a little anxiously: "This is not polite, Shen Chen is too reckless!"
Impolite
Old Mrs. Wei was silent for a while.
Sometimes she felt that Wei An was an extremely contradictory individual. She was usually very particular about etiquette, but when it came to such emotional matters, she seemed to pay extra attention to etiquette.
She looked upon those who spoke a little rudely as vicious snakes and scorpions.
Now that Shen Chen had the courage to express his feelings, she was not surprised or nervous, but angry at Shen Chen for his impolite behavior in expressing his feelings.
She touched Wei An's head and sighed soothingly: "Some things cannot be bound by dogma and etiquette... If we talk about etiquette, Young Master Lin has done his best, but are you willing?"
She looked deeply into Wei An's eyes, trying to calm her down: "Think about it, what are you afraid of?"
Which girl doesn’t look forward to a good man
Only Wei An looked at them as if they were a scourge and tried to avoid them as much as possible.
This is really abnormal.
Wei An fell silent for a long time.
She couldn't tell Mrs. Wei about the horrors she had experienced in her previous life.
One wrong step leads to all wrong.
It was because she was too lonely at that time that she was fooled by Peng Caichen. She was easily bewitched by his kindness and sweet words, and ended up making such a big mistake by marrying such a man.
In her heart, she subconsciously felt that those people who said those nice things in private in an attempt to deceive girls' hearts were all the same kind of people.
Although Young Master Lin does not belong to this category, he is not the person she likes.
When she thought of this, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and then she jumped up as if frightened, looking at herself in the mirror in disbelief.
What is she thinking about
She was angry with Shen Chen, avoided Shen Chen, and thought Shen Chen was reckless. Was it because she thought he was like Peng Caichen in the previous life? !
What's like Peng Caichen
It is obvious that Shen Chen and Peng Caichen are completely different types of people. Peng Caichen is not even as good as Shen Chen.
That's the feeling.
The same thing is that her feeling towards Peng Caichen in the previous life is the same as her feeling towards Shen Chen now.
That was the feeling of extreme danger that she had warned herself about after experiencing betrayal and lessons.
She was frightened by her own thoughts and did not speak for a while.
Old Madam Wei held her in her arms, stroked her back again and again, and said softly: "Grandma was also a young girl. A normal girl would not react like you when encountering such a thing. I know you have concerns in your heart, and I know you are unhappy, but An An, the past is over. People should always move forward and look forward. Forget about the uncomfortable things. People are different, and their ways of dealing with things are different. There are thousands of paths in the future, thousands of possibilities. Why worry about the ancients and worry about nothing?"
Wei An nestled in Old Madam Wei's arms, feeling somewhat enlightened and a little embarrassed. After a long while, he raised his head to look at Old Madam Wei and said in a very low voice, "Grandma, I seem to... love to lose my temper with Shen Chen."
Old Mrs. Wei couldn't help laughing.
Wei An behaved like an adult in all matters related to other things, but when faced with something like this, he was more shy than any other girl.
She clearly had feelings for Shen Chen, but was too shy to admit it, as if she would lose if she opened her mouth.
She touched Wei An's head and couldn't help laughing: "Besides losing your temper, is there nothing else you can do?"
Wei An thought about it gloomily and shook his head seriously: "Also, when I'm with him, I can say whatever I want. He doesn't think I'm shocking, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. There's no need to worry about what to say and what not to say."
She held Mrs. Wei's hand in confusion: "And... I don't know why, but I always feel that he is reliable. No matter if I am willful or not, no matter what kind of person I am, he probably really likes me."
The only person she loved in her previous life, Peng Caichen, lied to her, so she became more afraid of ropes than others.
She has experienced what it means to like someone.
But she really didn't know how that person liked her, and no one had ever taught her.
She always felt that it was very difficult, almost impossible to live with someone for a lifetime.
But... ..
It’s not impossible to give it a try.
Mrs. Wei understood what Wei An meant. She paused and said softly, "If you want to ask me whether Shen Chen can treat you like this forever, I can't tell you, and I can't give you any guarantees. Because people can never control another person's thoughts and ask him to do something forever."
Seeing the complex and fearful look in Wei An's eyes, she slowly said, "But I know that one should not give up because of fear. Doing one's best and letting nature take its course is probably the best choice."
The road of life is too long, and no one knows what changes will happen in the future, but you can't choose not to live just because of future changes.
Old Mrs. Wei hopes that Wei An will understand this principle himself.
Wei An pursed his lips and was about to say something else when there was a knock on the door.
Aunt Hua whispered to Old Madam Wei outside, "Madam, the Third Madam is here."
Old Madam Wei glanced at Wei An, asked Aunt Hua and the others to come in, and asked Wei An to go to the east side room to fix his makeup, and then asked the Third Madam: "What's the matter?"
The Third Madam herself was also confused: "A housekeeper from the Feng family came with many gifts and a letter saying she wanted to see An An."
Feng family
Old Madam Wei suddenly had an idea and asked her, "Is it the Feng family of Rongchang Marquis?"
The third wife nodded, her expression somewhat complicated: "I have never had any contact with the Feng family. After that incident, the Feng family has been depressed for a long time, and has only recently regained its glory... I don't know why they suddenly came to our house and wanted to see An An..."
This really doesn't seem right no matter how you look at it.
Could it be that the Feng family is up to some bad idea again
