Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

After all, when she was following her grandmother closely, her third uncle would tease her almost every day.

"How could he be with Zheng Erji?" Wei Zhong asked confusedly. He realized that even Wei Bingyan couldn't answer this question. "How could he still remember a brother like me? I don't know where he went to hang out after coming to Baiyue City."

"Father, doesn't you know what your third uncle has been doing these years?" Wei Bingyan asked again.

Wei Zhong replied coldly, "Even the old man doesn't know, how can I know!"

How could the old man not know? He just kept it from his brother, Wei Bingyan thought, and always thought that the relationship between Wei Zhong and his third uncle should not be very good.

"I'm going to the study!" After handing Ah Sheng over to the wet nurse, Wei Zhong stood up.

Xiao sent him to the door and watched him leave. Then she turned around and glared at Wei Bingyan, "Why did you mention your third uncle? Have you forgotten that your third uncle had a big fight with your father before he left home?"

Ah? Wei Bingyan was confused. She really had forgotten that after she woke up from her sleep in Jinyun City, all she remembered were things from her previous life. She couldn't remember any conflicts between her third uncle and Wei Zhong.

Xiao signaled the wet nurse to carry the tired Ah Sheng back to sleep, and they were the only ones left in the room.

"Alas, it's all your father's fault. He made the decision on his own and asked your third uncle to marry Lord Zhang's daughter. Third uncle was not willing to be used by your father to win over Lord Zhang. After quarreling with your father, he talked to the old man for a long time and left the capital the next day. Your father was so angry at that time that he almost broke off the brotherhood with him." Xiao said softly.

She also felt embarrassed around Wei Dongbi because of her husband's unauthorized decision-making at that time.

Wei Bingyan remembered it and felt that it seemed to be true, but it seemed that her third uncle never got married after that.

After all, Uncle San is already 29 years old. Could it be that he really doesn’t have a lover?

"No wonder Third Uncle didn't come back!" Wei Bingyan sighed. She felt very strange about Wei Dongbi and wanted to know what he had been doing in the past few years. She originally wanted to ask Li Yuyan last night, but when she saw that he was injured, she didn't want to disturb his rest, so she didn't ask anything.

"Maybe he has something to do." Xiao said.

It is possible that only Li Yuyan knows what his uncle did.

"Madam." Nanny Li came in, bowed, and whispered to Xiao, "The old man has sent someone to tell you to go to the study."

Xiao raised her eyebrows. Didn't he just leave? Is there anything that can't be said here?

Wei Bingyan said with a smile: "Mom, you go ahead. It's time for me to go back too."

"That's great. You go back and take care of your son-in-law." Xiao said, and went out with Wei Bingyan.

When Wei Bingyan stepped out of the gate of the courtyard, her brisk steps did not lead her to the auspicious gate, but to the other side of the small garden.

"Miss, where are you going?" Bai Binghui asked curiously.

"Go find Aunt Li and ask her something." Wei Bingyan said softly.

This was the first time that Wei Bingyan came to Li Xiaoshi's courtyard. Such a Baiyue woman was extraordinary. The whole courtyard was filled with a clear and refreshing atmosphere. The maid led Wei Bingyan into the tea room, where Li Xiaoshi was already patiently waiting to steam tea.

It felt as if I knew she would come.

"My aunt is here, please sit down." Li Xiaoshi had a bright smile. Although she did not stand up to greet her, her tone was very polite.

"You knew I would come to find you." Wei Bingyan sat down and asked affirmatively.

Li Xiaoshi tilted her neck and glanced at Wei Bingyan with a smile, "My aunt left Baiyue City in a hurry before, and now that she is back, she naturally has a lot of things to ask me."

Wei Bingyan looked down at the small-leaf tea that Li Xiaoshi had placed in front of her. The Yulongquan Mountain tea leaves kept turning in the porcelain white cup and gradually settled. Her eyes were as calm as a calm horizon. "No matter who sent you here or what your purpose is, my father is not attached to anyone now. I really don't know what you are monitoring, but... if you do anything that is detrimental to the entire Wei family, I will not let you go."

"If you have the energy to defend yourself against me, you might as well defend yourself against the people in the capital." Li Xiaoshi elegantly picked up the cup and sipped the tea, smiling and saying, "If you hadn't left in time, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to sit in front of me safely today."

"What do you mean?" Wei Bingyan closed her eyes and looked at her sternly.

Li Xiaoshi said: "On the same day you left Baiyue City, several assassins sneaked into the city to deal with you."

"How do you know?" Wei Bingyan was secretly surprised, but her expression remained calm.

"I have my own way. I'm just curious about how you offended the Fourth Prince's wife... I heard from others that you were like sisters before." Li Xiaoshi laughed. If it was an assassin sent by the Fourth Prince, she could still understand it, but the result of the interrogation was surprising.

Wei Bingyan was lucky enough to escape danger that day. As for those inconspicuous men in black who assassinated Li Yuyan, they were obviously not the same group as the ones she had identified, and she was still unable to stop them.

Shen Rouruo... Wei Bingyan smiled darkly in her heart. How much did this woman hate her? Could it be that this was her destiny, that she and Shen Rouruo were destined to be enemies?

"Thank you very much, Aunt Li, for your reminder." Shen Rouruo must have spent a lot of time talking to the Fourth Prince. Even if the Fourth Prince did not want to deal with Li Yuyan, under her influence, the Fourth Prince would have to kill Li Yuyan.

Are these pirates on the sea related to Shen Rouruo? Wei Bingyan thought to herself, and then shook her head. Shen Rouruo might not be that capable.

"Women's ghostly tricks are sometimes more terrifying than men's, ma'am, please be careful." Li Xiaoshi said.

Wei Bingyan expressed her gratitude once again, then stood up and waved goodbye reluctantly.

After coming out of Li Xiaoshi's courtyard, Wei Bingyan did not stay for long and took Bai Binghui back home.

She walked briskly into the inner courtyard, and An Xiang greeted her, "Madam, the young master is back and in the study."

Wei Bingyan paused in her brisk steps, turned around and walked towards the study.

Only Fu Sheng was guarding outside the study, and the maid who was cleaning had been sent away.

"Madam." Fu Sheng bowed quickly when he saw Wei Bingyan.

Wei Bingyan glanced at the tightly closed door of the study and asked, "Are there any guests in the study?"

Fu Sheng replied, "It's Admiral Fu who's here."
