Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

The old man muttered a few times, and then stopped worrying about this matter. "We are back in the capital, and you are the only one left in Baiyue City. Do you want to go back with us?"

Xiao had mentioned this to her before. Wei Bingyan curled her lips with a smile, "Master will leave in a few months at most. I will wait for him to come back."

"Do you know where he went?" asked the old man.

Wei Bingyan asked Bai Binghui and Luzhi to leave before answering the old man's obvious question, "He mentioned it to me, Grandpa, I've always wanted to ask you, Third Uncle...has he actually been in touch with you for many years?"

"Your third uncle has had a hard time these years." The old man remained silent for a long time before he concentrated and sighed.

In fact, the one with the most difficulty is the old man!

As he was once the emperor's teacher, he was loyal to the emperor, but the emperor's mood was unpredictable. The old man understood this truth better than anyone else. The honor or loss of the Wei family depended on a flash of thought of Your Majesty.

For the sake of the Wei family, the old man had no choice but to let his eldest and youngest sons roam free and let them do whatever they wanted. This was to lower His Majesty's guard against the entire Wei family, and also to show His Majesty how loyal the Wei family was to His Majesty.

"Grandpa, why don't you persuade father to resign from his official position without any hesitation and be an idle person at home? It will be better than the current situation." Wei Bingyan asked softly.

The old man snorted, "Your father thinks he is a noble man. If I ask him to resign his official title without any hesitation, he will naturally blame me for the rest of his life, blaming me for blocking his rise to fame."

Wei Zhong is indeed such a person! Wei Bingyan curled her lips slightly in her heart, "Grandpa has returned to the capital, so don't worry about this place all the time."

At this moment, the old man's mood was still affected by Wei Zhong.

"I don't have any major problems." The old man waved his hand and looked at Wei Bingyan with great concern, "On the contrary, can you be alone in Baiyue City?"

Wei Bingyan smiled slightly and said, "I am not a weak and vulnerable young lady anymore."

The old man smiled and said no more.

After saying goodbye to the old master, Wei Bingyan was stopped by Li Xiaoshi's maid on her way to look for Xiao, who said that Aunt Li wanted to invite her over for a visit.

Although Wei Bingyan was still wary of Li Xiaoshi, she was not as disgusted with her as she was at the beginning, so she asked Bai Binghui to go back to the Xiao family first, and she went to see Li Xiaoshi herself.

As soon as Li Xiaoshi saw Wei Bingyan, she couldn't help but blame her, "...I don't look like someone who can manage a household. Madam is clearly trying to harm me and wants these women to skin me alive. Please go and beg Madam to forgive me. I really can't manage a household like this."

Seeing the panic on Li Xiaoshi's face for the first time, Wei Bingyan laughed, "The concubines in this family have always wanted such power, but you are disgusted by it."

"You know exactly what kind of person your father is. After your wife went to the capital, he brought a woman back several times a day, or caused some trouble. I had to go and clean up his mess. This is not a good thing. Aunt, I have no grudge against you in the past or in the present, and I have never intentionally hurt your wife.

You should persuade the wife and ask her to forgive me." Li Xiaoshi cried in a sad voice.

Wei Bingyan laughed gloatingly, and suddenly felt that Li Xiaoshi was sometimes straightforward. "I can't help you. Apart from mother, you are the closest to father. If you don't manage such a family, others may not be convinced."

Li Xiaoshi's face turned pale and blue, and it seemed that she really didn't want such power to be the master of the house.

I don't know what the purpose of that guy placing Li Xiaoshi in the Wei family is...

……

Back in the main courtyard, Xiao had some free time and was drinking tea.

Wei Bingyan sat next to her intimately and told Xiao with a smile that Li Xiaoshi had just come to look for her.

Xiao almost spit out a mouthful of tea, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "I originally thought she was well-behaved and wanted to praise her, but I didn't expect that she was not surprised. However, this is rare."

"I thought mother was sincere." Wei Bingyan said with a giggle.

"What's so sincere about this? Li Xiaoshi is different from others. Her appearance is very good in the capital. She is smart and talented. It's just that she was born in a poor family and was given to your father sincerely. If she was born in a better family, it would not be a problem for her to marry into a better family and become his wife..."

As Xiao spoke, she didn't know what she was thinking about, and sighed slightly, "In this world, young lady is the one who suffers."

Wei Bingyan didn't want Xiao to be so depressed, so she asked Ah Sheng with a smile.

"...He is still making a fuss. The day before yesterday, he broke the rabbit lamp that A Rui bought for him. A Rui had to make him another one. A Rui went to say goodbye to his husband and was going back the next day. Except for you, no one else felt sad at all." Xiao said.

"Mom, don't worry about me. I will be fine." Wei Bingyan hugged Xiao's arm, leaned her head on her shoulder, and spoke softly and coquettishly.

Xiao gently touched her face, "Did the son-in-law say when he would be back? What was he doing? Why would he be away for so long?"

"It will only be about two months, and he will be back soon." Wei Bingyan said vaguely. It was not easy to tell where Li Yuyan had gone and what he had done.

"That thing is in the past. What are you preparing for now?" Xiao placed one hand on Wei Bingyan's belly, and spoke with concern in her tone.

Wei Bingyan's face flushed slightly as she replied softly, "...I have stopped taking the medicine, but there has been no news for a while."

After hearing this, Xiao raised her eyes, "Your son-in-law did that bad thing because he felt sorry for you. You just need to be confident and don't confront him. A small misconduct is not a big deal. After all, your mother-in-law treats you well, and the Li family is not in a hurry to have offspring. You should take good care of your health and wait a year or two before making a decision."

"My husband said he hopes to have a daughter." Wei Bingyan said with a blush on her face.

"Son-in-law, really..." Xiao was stunned for a moment, then curled her lips with a smile, "You two young couples can just talk about yourselves in your room."

Wei Bingyan nodded, "Mom, I'll take you there tomorrow."

"I'm here today, and if I leave tomorrow it will only add to the desolation. It won't be long before my son-in-law is transferred back to the capital, and then we can meet each other," said Mrs. Xiao.

"Uh." Wei Bingyan hugged Xiao tightly, reluctantly. After this separation, they might not see each other again for one to two years.
