The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Wen Qingfang came to the east courtyard.
Wen Qingzhu received Wen Qingfang in bed on the grounds that his condition was serious.
"Lv Tao, go and serve tea to Miss Sixth." Wen Qingzhu leaned on the soft pillow and ordered in a weak voice.
When Wen Qingfang saw this, she stretched out her hand to stop her: "Seventh sister, you're welcome, they are all our sisters."
Wen Qingzhu smiled and said nothing.
The two people just looked at each other, neither of them spoke.
Until the peony outside comes to pass.
"Miss, Miss Eleven wants to see you."
Wen Qingzhu had anticipated this and raised his chin: "Invite Sister Eleven in."
After a while, Shaoyao led Wen Qingxin in.
The moment she saw Wen Qingfang, she was not surprised, but greeted her politely.
Lu Tao went to bring another stool over.
After Wen Qingxin sat down, the room became a little warmer.
Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qingxin's dress today, which was still sober.
She looked at the two of them and asked with a smile: "Sixth sister and eleventh sister, don't worry, I'm much better, as long as there is no additional stimulation in the future."
Having said this, it is already obvious.
Wen Qingfang came here to persuade Wen Qingzhu for Liu.
I was worried at first, but after hearing Wen Qingzhu's words, I couldn't help but frown.
Wen Qingxin, who was working on the other side, said with a smile: "Seventh sister is well rested. Just let Aunt Yue take care of everything in Yanyuan."
Wen Qingxin's words didn't mention tomorrow's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet at all.
Wen Qingzhu knew very well that the reason why the Jiang family sent the post was to ask her to expire.
"Thank you for your concern, Sister Eleven. Unlike you, I have my mother to help me and teach me everything. I did many things wrong. I didn't know until my grandmother got angry."
After Wen Qingzhu finished speaking, he started coughing.
Lu Tao quickly changed a handkerchief for her, and at the same time asked the peony outside: "Is the lady's medicine ready?"
"Come on, Xi'er has already gone to the pharmacy." Shaoyao was cleaning the incense burner outside, while always looking at the situation inside the house.
"Does Seventh Sister need to take medicine every day?" Wen Qingfang glanced sideways at the door, and sure enough she saw Xi'er walking in with a bowl of medicine.
Xi'er opened the curtain and walked to the bed with the medicine.
Lu Tao quickly went to get the medicine bowl and handed it to Wen Qingzhu.
After Wen Qingzhu took the medicine, he looked at Wen Qingfang and smiled bitterly: "There is no other way. If I want to get better as soon as possible, I can only drink medicine every day."
After saying that, Wen Qingzhu picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp without changing his expression.
Lu Tao took Wen Qingzhu's empty medicine bowl and handed her a wet handkerchief.
After Wen Qingzhu wiped the corners of his mouth, he handed her a dry handkerchief.
Xi'er went down with the empty bowl, but the bitter smell of medicine lingered in the room.
Wen Qingfang thought she was a patient person, but after smelling the strange bitter smell in her nose, she actually had the urge to vomit.
"Seventh sister has worked really hard. She can drink such bitter medicine without changing her expression." Wen Qingfang looked at the handkerchief that Lu Tao took off and confirmed that Wen Qingzhu had indeed drank all the medicine just now.
But Wen Qingxin interjected: "It's nothing hard. As long as Sister Qi's health can get better, all the hardship will be worth it."
When Wen Qingfang heard her words, she couldn't help turning her head and looked over, only to find Wen Qingxin sitting there with an unchanging expression.
"Sister Eleven, don't you find this smell bitter?" Wen Qingfang was really curious about how Wen Qingxin could endure it.
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu also looked at Wen Qingxin curiously.
I also had green pottery peony, which I had taken in advance to temporarily block my sense of smell.
But is Wen Qingxin like this too
"Sixth sister was joking. Of course Eleven felt it was very bitter, but I had been sick for a long time before, and my mother had been sick for a long time. I drank a lot of this bitter medicine, and I'm used to it."
Wen Qingxin looked sideways at Wen Qingfang, with a faint smile on her lips.
In a daze, Wen Qingfang even felt that the person in front of her was not Wen Qingxin at all.
You must know that Wen Qingxin used to have such an arrogant and unruly personality.
Wen Qingzhu deliberately yawned, looked at them and asked, "Do you two sisters have anything else to do? If not, I want to take a rest first."
"Yes!" Wen Qingfang and Wen Qingxin said in unison.
The next moment, the two of them smiled and looked at each other humbly.
"Sister, tell me first."
"Sister, tell me first."
Wen Qingzhu looked at their fake sisterhood and almost couldn't help laughing.
Lu Tao couldn't bear it anymore and simply made a suggestion: "Miss Six is the leader, Miss Six should speak first."
Wen Qingxin nodded in agreement: "Yes, Sister Six is the older sister, and Eleven, as the younger sister, should be humble."
Wen Qingfang, who was forced to do so, actually wanted to talk to Wen Qingzhu alone.
But Wen Qingxin and Lu Tao were both here, and obviously she had no suitable reason to let them leave for a while.
After thinking for a long time in her mind, Wen Qingfang organized her words and asked cautiously: "At the previous Hundred Flowers Banquet, Mr. Jiang Liu said that he fell in love with the seventh sister at first sight. This time he specially sent a post to the Wen family. It must be the same." Doesn’t Seventh Sister have any thoughts about this matter?”
This is indeed what happened!
Wen Qingzhu tilted his head and looked over, with a touch of sadness on his face: "I can't compare to Sixth Sister, who is the eldest daughter of the Wen family, who has a maternal family like the Wan family, and a high family background like the Jiang family. It’s absolutely unworthy, maybe Sixth Sister can give it a try.”
To put it mildly, the answer doesn't hit the point at all.
Wen Qingfang was a little anxious. Her mother had made her grandmother unhappy. If she didn't help do something to make her grandmother happy.
I'm afraid there won't be room for their main room in Fushou Hall.
"Seventh sister, what I mean is, how do you feel about Mr. Jiang Sixth?" Wen Qingfang asked directly when Wen Qingzhu refused to answer directly.
Wen Qingzhu's expression suddenly became serious, and he looked at Wen Qingfang steadily: "Sixth sister! All major marriage matters are decided by the parents. Having thoughts that should not be born will only bring shame to the Wen family. Sixth sister asked me this stubbornly Thing, could it be that Sixth Sister likes Mr. Jiang?"
"Of course not!" Wen Qingfang denied without hesitation.
How could she fall in love with someone like Jiang Liu
Although Jiang Liu was the legitimate son of the Duke of Guo, he was neither the eldest son nor the heir to the title.
In her eyes, even Wan Ze is inferior.
"Then why is my sister asking me this stubbornly? I will abide by the Wen family's motto, be humble and polite, and will never have any thoughts that would disgrace the family tradition." Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qingfang strangely.
Wen Qingfang was stared at by her, but she couldn't say a word she had prepared.
For a long time, she could only say angrily: "Sister thought that the Jiang family specially sent a nanny to measure the clothes. She thought it was my sister who was treating Jiang Liu—"
"Sixth sister!" Wen Qingzhu said with a straight face and interrupted her seriously, "Don't you know that making empty rumors will ruin my reputation? What's more, this matter is very clear, and you are still making random guesses here. Could it be that this isn’t the first time you’ve said something like this!”
Wen Qingfang didn't expect Wen Qingzhu to take the matter so seriously.
What made her even more dissatisfied was that Wen Qingzhu dared to speak to her in a lecturing tone.
"I'm sorry, Seventh Sister. It was my sister who was rude. Don't you know who she is? It's because my grandmother was suspicious that I came here to make this trip."
The smile on Wen Qingfang's face faded, and she simply put all the responsibility on Mrs. Liu.
Not only Wen Qingzhu, but also Wen Qingxin looked over in surprise.
In the past, Wen Qingfang was eloquent, but not so restless.
Could it be that something happened in the main house that she didn't know about
After saying these words, Wen Qingfang left with the maid.
Only Wen Qingxin and Wen Qingfang were left in the house, as well as green pottery and passion fruit.
Wen Qingxin looked at the two maids and asked Wen Qingzhu, "Can you please ask Lu Tao to go out? I have something I want to talk to Seventh Sister alone."
Wen Qingzhu's eyes flickered, but he finally nodded.
Green Tao went down with the passion fruit.
It was only then that the car became quiet in the room.
Wen Qingxin then said seriously to Wen Qingzhu: "Sister Qi, I am very scared when I go to Jiang's house this time. Then Jiang Liu rushed to the Wen's house to let dogs bite people. I think he will definitely not let me go. Do you know Miss Lei Shuo?" , can you tell her and let me follow her."
Wen Qingzhu said nothing.
Her eyes gradually darkened as she looked at Wen Qingxin.
Judging from Wen Qingxin's nervous look, it didn't seem like he was faking it.
Did Wen Qingxin know that nothing good would happen if he went to Jiang's house
Or maybe she expected something bad to happen.
Wen Qingxin looked into Wen Qingzhu's eyes, feeling very uneasy.
Ever since the Jiang family's nanny measured her clothes, she began to have continuous nightmares.
She dreamed that she was at Jiang's house and was being played as a target by Jiang Liu.
He was completely humiliated in front of the most famous young master in the capital.
"Seventh sister!" When Wen Qingxin thought of the scene in her dream, her whole body began to tremble, and she couldn't help but reach out and grab Wen Qingzhu's hand.
The moment Wen Qingxin's hand touched Wen Qingzhu, Wen Qingzhu's heart trembled.
The temperature of Wen Qingxin's hands was extremely low, as cold as ice cubes in winter.
Wen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and looked at Wen Qingxin, she must know something.
"Sister Eleven..."
"Well, you say it, you say it." Wen Qingxin felt a little relieved when she heard her speak.
The corners of Wen Qingzhu's lips raised slightly, and he asked slowly: "Does Sister Eleven know what Jiang Liu will do?"
Hearing these words, Wen Qingxin suddenly raised his head and looked at Wen Qingzhu blankly.
Did she, did she find out...
The two people just looked at each other silently.
As time passed by, Wen Qingzhu found that Wen Qingxin's whole body had stiffened.
She made a deal with Wen Qingxin.
"Sister Eleven, Sister Shuo can take you, but I have a condition."
"What conditions?" Wen Qingxin's lips trembled.
Wen Qingzhu asked softly: "How will Sister Eleven plan to separate the family next?"
…
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lei Shuo came. After going to Yanyuan to see Wen Qingzhu, he went out with Wen Qingxin.
Wen Qingfang saw this matter.
This time, both Wen Guanbin and Liu went out.
In the entire Wen family, only people from Yanyuan were left.
She took this opportunity to visit Wen Mingxuan at Zimingtang.
But he didn't expect to meet Jiang Yuancheng at the door of Zimingtang.
Wen Qingzhu stopped and looked at him quietly.
Wen Qingzhu knew very well that Jiang Yuancheng knew that she was not sick.
And Jiang Yuancheng also knew very well that Wen Qingzhu knew that he knew that she was not sick.
At this time, Tian Chong walked out of the door of Zimingtang.
"Fifth Young Master, Third Master invites you."
Only then did Jiang Yuancheng look away, turned around and walked into Zimingtang.
After his figure disappeared, Wen Qingzhu followed Wang Zimingtang.
Arriving at Wen Mingxuan's house.
Wen Qingzhu discovered that Wen Mingxuan was practicing calligraphy. He was concentrating on each stroke, and his strokes were extremely correct.
Alai was about to remind Wen Mingxuan, but Wen Qingzhu raised his hand to stop him.
There's no rush for some things.
Walking to Wen Mingxuan's side, Wen Qingzhu found that he was copying the "Tao Te Ching".
When I saw the sentence he wrote, I had already copied half of it.
Two quarters of an hour later, Wen Mingxuan felt his wrists were a little tired and stopped.
He didn't raise his head, but directly ordered: "Alai, bring me a cup of tea."
Alai turned around to pour the tea. Wen Qingzhu took it and handed it to Wen Mingxuan.
As soon as Wen Mingxuan took it, he found that the hand stretched out was different from Alai's.
He looked up and said in surprise: "Sister!"
