After returning to the inner room, Wei Changying didn't even give a look to Shen Cangfeng and went to bed directly.
Shen Cangfeng followed her immediately. They flirted for a moment, then Wei Changying had hesitated for a long while before she eventually kissed Shen Cangfeng on his cheek reluctantly. He then explained to Wei Changying about the poem. The title of Nian Shengyao's poem was "A Lady Thinking about Her Husband," but there was only one lady in the Min Family that day, so their servants naturally knew who Nian Shengyao had seen.
The problem was, the lady in the Min Family was not married. It was quite rude for Nian Shengyao to peep at the lady from the outside of her yard, but he even wrote a poem, saying that she was thinking of her husband! No wonder he was beaten by the Min Family's servants.
Wei Changying didn't know whether to laugh or not when she heard this. She said, "Miss Min was so unlucky. She was just appreciating the view
When Wei Changying said this, Madam Su was also a little unhappy and said, "First Aunt is always tolerant, not to mention that in this matter, Ning'er this is wrong. But the people in the kitchen are also too confused! Knowing that Ning'er has always been absurd and mischievous, they put it into the dish without inquiring! Even if your maternal grandmother does not say anything, your first aunt will not spare them easily! I said earlier that there was a conflict between your two aunts, but it was only before your third aunt's explanation. Your third aunt has already gone to make things clear with your first aunt, and your two aunts are virtuous people. How could they still be embarrassing between each other right now?"… Wei Changying married into the Shen Family so that she certainly had some knowledge of the Shen Family's important marriages, not to mention that the Su Family was the husband's family of her own lineal aunt.The clan of the Su Family was F
The Third Miss of Su Family, Su Yufei's birthday was coming. Wei Changying had known about her from Mrs. Huang and others. Su Yufei was the lineal eldest daughter of the second branch of the Su Family. Her father Su Mao's mother was not that of Madam Su. Although they were often very polite and Madam Su presented the same gifts to her as to others, Madam Su didn't treat her as well as the children of the eldest and the third branch. Wei Changying asked Madam Su, and she said Wei Changying could do as she saw fit.Maybe Madam Su didn't worry too much about a niece's birthday, or maybe she wanted to take a test of her wife. Wei Changying pondered for a day, considering that Su Yufei and Shen Cangning seemed to have a good relationship. Last time when Shen Cangning ate her cousin Su Yuwu's parrot, didn't she just run into the room of Su Yufei to avoid Madam Su's annoyance? So Cangning presented her a gift that was not too expensive but delicate enough. The next day, Su Yuf
Because of Madam Qian’s ironic words, Wei Zhengyin frowned again, but immediately apologized to Old Madam Deng. In spite of being Madam Su’s mother, Old Madam Deng was kinder than her daughter. When her daughters-in-law intrigued against each other in front of her and the young generation who came to greet her, she neither scolded them nor revealed her dislike. On the contrary, she sighed with a helpless look and said to Wei Zhengyin, “It is your first time to see your niece since she grew up. It is not a problem that you have many words to say. Now, just let the same generation greet each other.”First young master and third young master of the Su Family worked outside. Mrs. Deng and Mrs. Gu who ushered two guests into the hall apologized for their own husband’s absence. Shen Cangfeng and Wei Changying immediately expressed their understanding and also felt sorry about their sudden visit. After greeting Mrs. Deng and Mrs. Gu, Shen Cangfeng and Wei Changying met Su Yuli
Wei Changying and Shen Cangfeng had a pleasant conversation with Wei Zhengyin in the third branch. It was at noon when Old Madam Deng had servants call them to have lunch, so they stopped talking and then headed for the courtyard of Old Madam Deng.They didn’t know that Su Pingzhan had come back home about ten minutes ago until they reached the hall.As a Family Head of the Su Family in Qingzhou, Su Pingzhan was as old as Wei Huan. He was strong and handsome, with a dignified manner.When Shen Cangfeng and Wei Changying arrived at the hall, Su Pingzhan had changed his official’s formal robe with a green round-collar garment embroidered with Ruyi patterns. His hair was coiled with a suet jade bamboo-shape hairpin. His dressing looked casual now. Sitting straight on his seat, he chatted with Old Madam Deng across the table with a laugh. He was in good spirits and the atmosphere relaxing.After entering the hall, the young generation
"She didn't do it by herself, but in fact it was still her own fault!" Wei Zhengyin sneered and said, "Actually, Mrs. Deng did it."Wei Changying was surprised, "First cousin-in-law? How could it be her!" Though Mrs. Deng's husband Su Ruoqian was the eldest grandson, he was born by a concubine. Besides, the Deng Family's reputation was far inferior to that of the Su family. Even with the support of Old Madam Deng, Mrs. Deng should not be as careful as Mrs. Pei, the third madam of the Wei Family. To be honest, it was also impossible for her to take the initiative to find faults with others.Moreover, it was Mrs. Deng and Mrs. Gu who had greeted Wei Changying and Shen Cangfeng when they entered the door today. Mrs. Deng was so prudent and cautious in her speech and act that as if she was a dreary person. How could she go too far? Or was she instigated by Madam Qian?Seeing the niece's face, Wei Zhengyin was relieved and said, "As you know, Madam
"Mrs. Deng grasped the parrot and pointed at the bright plumage of the parrot for Cangning. It wasn't long before she suddenly ‘gripped’ a wrong position and twisted the parrot's neck!" Wei Zhengyin took a sip of tea and calmly said.Wei Changying was startled and said, "What?"Wei Zhengyin was pretty calm and continued, "Cangning was dumbfounded and looked at Mrs. Deng in speechless despair. She didn't know how to explain it to Yuwu! Mrs. Deng cried and said that Madam Qian originally didn't like her because the lineal daughter Mrs. Deng gave birth to die before she was one year old. Moreover, Madam Qian had said that Mrs. Deng didn't have the good fortune of delivering babies in front of Cangning's first elder cousin for several times. Now Madam Qian might take advantage of this matter to divorce her back to her natal home, then how could she have the face to live in the world? Because of Mrs. Deng's desperate struggle, Cangning promised to help her take
This day, as Shen Cangfeng went to the Su Family after his work to pick up his wife, Wei Changying had already coaxed Shen Cangning, packed up and waited for him.It was just that the sister-in-law was after all not as close as her lineal elder brother. Although Shen Cangning had promised to go with Wei Changying, when Shen Cangning saw Shen Cangfeng, she pulled him aside. Then she vacillatingly asked him if Madam Su was still angry these days, and if it was dangerous for her to go back now.Because it was in front of Old Madam Deng and others, Shen Cangfeng scolded her with a straight face, "Now you know you're afraid, why were you being so mischievous before?"Shen Cangning fiddled with her sleeves and said in an aggrieved manner, "I had made my apology to fifth elder cousin, and fifth elder cousin said that he would no longer blame me."Old Madam Deng naturally wanted to help her granddaughter to smooth things over, "It was just
Back to the mansion of the Grand Preceptor, when Madam Su saw Shen Cangning, there was inevitably a fight between them. The mother chased the daughter around a pillar for a while. Shen Cangfeng and Wei Changying tried to calm each of them and they were very exhausted. Finally, Madame Su herself was tired, so she went back to her seat with Wei Changying's help, saying with hatred, "If your third brother and your third sister-in-law hadn't helped you today, I'd have broken your legs!"Shen Cangning tearfully spoke back, "If you break my legs, we'll see how you'll be able to explain it to the maternal grandmother and my father!" The Old Madam Deng was kind and loved the younger generation very much. Shen Xuan had six sons and two daughters, so fewer daughters than sons. The fewer the things were, the more precious they were so he naturally loved his daughters even more. Especially, as the first daughter was married to Duke Ji, staying with her husband, so it was rare for t
