Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream
Chapter 61 Don’t care
Wei Zhong could not imagine that Li Yuyan was such a stubborn person. The Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince went to meet him in person, but he refused to see them. When he went to visit him himself, he lived in seclusion. Now he had to use his daughter's relationship with the Li family, but he refused to see them...
What was Li Yuyan thinking! He put aside his wealth and glory and hid in the house thinking about something!
"Master, the young lady has just sent a maid to meet Young Master Li." The servant who came to answer said softly that Wei Zhong had someone watching outside Baili's house, so they naturally wanted to know clearly who was going to meet Li Yuyan.
Wei Zhong said coldly, "Didn't you go there once this morning?"
"Yes, I went to invite this Young Master Guan to visit my home this morning. Just now... I came to bring fresh fruits to Young Master Li and the others." The servant replied.
Wei Zhongbo didn't care. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Wei Bingyan's behavior. He raised his hand and asked the servant to go down. "Okay, go down."
After sitting in the study for a while, Wei Zhong stepped out of the study when he saw that it was getting dark.
As soon as I walked into the inner courtyard, I saw Lian's maid running towards me with small steps, "Master, Lian knows that you have been busy with official business recently, and the current weather is very hot, so I personally made Luo Han Dou Dan Hua soup. Please go and drink a bowl, it can cool you down and relieve the heat."
Wei Zhong nodded and took two steps towards Aunt Lian's courtyard. Suddenly, he thought of something and said to the maid, "Ask Aunt Lian to deliver the bean soup directly to Madam."
After he finished speaking, he gradually went towards the main room.
The maid was stunned, her expression turned out to be very unhappy. This... Aunt Lian might be angry again.
Xiao didn't expect Wei Zhong to come over at this time. "Master, have you had dinner?"
"Not yet, eat here!" Wei Zhong sat down and took the towel Xiao handed over to wipe his face. "You've been busy all day, don't get too tired."
"I'm busy with small things here, so I'm not as tired as you, old man." Xiao said with a smile, and asked Xia Yuezhu to go to the kitchen and tell them to serve the two masters' favorite dishes for dinner.
Wei Zhong pulled Xiao to sit down, "Your health is slowly getting better, so don't be tired. Bingyan and Xiaoru have grown up, so you can let them help you manage the household."
A warm smile appeared on Xiao's calm face. "Master, you have thought about it carefully. I have also thought about this. Xiaoru is going to get married, and she will be the wife of the prince. She may become the head of the family. It is time for her to learn how to be a housekeeper."
"Bingyan has been following her mother closely since she was a child, and she has long learned how to manage the household. On the contrary, Xiaoru... we must not let her lose face for our Wei family after she goes to the Chu family." Wei Zhong said.
"Don't worry, old man." Xiao said with a smile.
Wei Zhong nodded, "The wedding date for Xiaoru should also be set."
"I will match their fortunes in the next few days and set a date for the wedding as soon as possible." Xiao replied.
Wei Zhong smiled contentedly, "Now that you're back, things at home have become much more satisfactory."
Xiao grumbled at him, "When I'm not around, the old man is more content, with beautiful women accompanying him every night."
"Haha, Madam is a good daughter-in-law, how can a vulgar woman compare to her?" Wei Zhong said with a loud laugh, and then immediately thought of something else, and said softly: "By the way, Princess Ping'an will have a banquet in a few days, you can take Bingyan and Xiaoru with you, and Li Shizi will be there that day, you can take a look."
"Yes, sir." Xiao replied with a smile, "Go on, the food is getting cold."
At this time, the couple was chatting and laughing happily, and Aunt Lian tried her best to dress up and prepared a lotus flower soup. She originally wanted to wait for Wei Zhong to come, but she didn't expect that he went to Xiao's place. She got so angry that she almost smashed the lotus flower soup.
Although Wei Zhong had many women, he stayed in her house the most every month. However, he still hadn't come to her place until now, and he had stayed at her place for two consecutive nights just after Xiao came back. Could it be that a short separation is better than a honeymoon?
In Aunt Lian's opinion, she didn't think Wei Zhong had any feelings for Xiao. He was only showing favor to Xiao in order to win over the Xiao family. From the beginning to the end, Wei Zhong loved her the most.
"Where's the second young lady? Go and ask her to come see me!" Aunt Lian took off the phoenix hairpin on her head and threw it on the dressing table in annoyance.
……
The next day, Wei Bingyan came to Xiao with great joy to greet her respectfully. She felt better immediately after learning last night that Li Yuyan had resolutely rejected her sincere invitation. As expected, he was a smart person and understood her intention of sending Bai Binghui to deliver the fruits.
When he appeared in the main room, he noticed that Aunt Lian and Wei Bingru were also there.
"Madam, although the second young lady has already worshipped the old ancestor and passed into your hands, she has not yet served you tea. The second young lady came several times the day before yesterday, but did not see Madam, so..." Aunt Lian and Wei Bingru had just arrived, and they were inseparable and accompanied Wei Bingru to serve tea to Xiao.
Xiao interrupted Aunt Lian calmly, "I was tired and rested the day before yesterday. I didn't even know that the Second Miss had come several times. Could it be that the Second Miss was feeling aggrieved deep down?"
Wei Bingru said hurriedly: "My daughter doesn't have the courage to do that. Mother, my daughter doesn't feel aggrieved, but now that mother is back, my daughter should come and serve you tea and wait on you."
"It doesn't matter whether you serve tea or not. Just pay respect to the old ancestor. You won't need to serve me." Xiao smiled and said, then whispered, "Your marriage has been decided, and you should also ask an aunt to come back to teach you the rules... The master also said the other day that he would also let you learn to manage things."
As soon as these words came out, Aunt Lian's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Well, you start by learning from the small things. Starting tomorrow, you will be in charge of the needlework room. If there is anything you don't understand, come to me. When I think you have learned it well, you will also learn to read and do accounting." Xiao glanced at Aunt Lian with cold eyes and smiled grimly in her heart.
Aunt Lian curled her lips and said, what good is there in a needlework room!
Wei Bingru was beaming with joy, "Thank you, mother."
Whether she was truly happy or pretending to be happy, Wei Bingru must have behaved like an obedient and gentle daughter around Xiao. Only in this way would her dowry not be too shabby.
Although she was unwilling to be betrothed to Prince Chu, she still could not offend the Xiao family.
"You guys go back first." Xiao picked up the cup directly.
No matter how unwilling Aunt Lian was, she could only suppress her anger. She hadn't seen the old man for several days, and many people thought that she was going to be sent to the cold palace. Recently, they didn't treat her as lovingly as before, and even spread rumors about her.
"Madam Lian has become much more reserved." Wei Bingyan said to Xiao with a smile as she watched Madam Lian and her daughter leave the inner room.
"For the sake of her daughter, she doesn't have the courage to act overbearingly now." Xiao said calmly.
Nanny Li brought Wei Bingyan a cup of fragrant tea and said, "The old man hasn't been to her room for a long time, so how dare she act so overbearingly?"
"How can a woman maintain her image if she is always thinking about competing for favors and love with younger people?" A hint of ridicule flashed across Xiao's calm face.
Wei Bingyan thought of the two skinny horses she had seen in Jinyun City, and wondered how they were doing in this house. "Madame Li, are Qingxiu and Yuzhu still at home?"
Nanny Li replied softly, "Yes, they are. When the old man first brought them back, the two little monsters fought fiercely with Aunt Lian. Otherwise, how could the old man not go to Aunt Lian's place for so long?"
"Don't talk about this in front of the young lady." Xiao gently reprimanded Li Ma.
Wei Bingyan smiled and said, "Mom, I'm not a child anymore, how can I really not understand?"
Xiao tapped her forehead and said, "We will be attending a banquet in a few days. You have met Princess Ping'an before, but you were still young at that time. There are many young ladies in the capital that you have never met. This time is a good opportunity to make some friends. You will definitely need to socialize in the future. You can't always hide in your room reading and playing with needles."
"I wasn't kidding." Wei Bingyan whispered softly.
"That day...Prince Li will also be there, you can meet him then." Xiao hesitated for a moment and decided to remind her daughter first.
Wei Bingyan suddenly tilted her neck up, "Is Li Yunze going too?"
"Princess Ping'an not only invited the wives of wealthy families in the capital, but also some young masters and princes." Xiao said with a smile.
This is just a blind date with a different name but the same substance...
"I don't want to go!" Wei Bingyan refused firmly without hesitation.
Xiao frowned and looked at her confusedly, "Why? You don't like seeing Prince Li? You haven't met him, so don't think he is the same person as Prince Chu."
She naturally knew what kind of person Li Yunze was. It was possible that she had a grudge against Li Yunze, so she didn't want to see him in this life. Before she got her revenge, she felt guilty towards him.
Since she just wanted to use him to avenge herself, he indulged her and removed her status. She lived more freely in the palace than Wei Bingru. Otherwise, how could she have planned to frame Wei Zhong for colluding with the remnants of the prince?
But his last palm... made her feel a little sad. He knew the resentment and pain in her heart. Even if he could not forgive her, he should at least understand why she did that.
But he kicked her out, knowing that she was pregnant at that time...
How can I not feel resentful? Why do I still want to meet him?
"Mother, I don't want to be betrothed to any prince." Wei Bingyan hung her head and blinked her eyelashes to hide the wetness. Life in a marquis's house was too tiring and she didn't want to go through it again.
"Silly!" Xiao just smiled. "I'll know if it's suitable after seeing the outstanding talents. Besides, it's Princess Ping'an who is here personally. You have to go to the banquet anyway."
She almost forgot that it was Princess Ping'an who actively played the matchmaker between her and Li Yunze.
It seemed that she had to go. She seemed to have attended the banquet in her previous life, but she had forgotten the details of what happened and who she met.
It's been too long.
"Your father is also very optimistic about Li Shizi, although..." Xiao sighed, "Although your father wants to marry into the Li family for other purposes, he really cares about you this time. Last time, your father wanted to betroth you to Chu Shizi, and the old man found out about it. He scolded him and said that your future marriage must be approved by the old man. Therefore, your father will not be the same this time."
This was the first time Wei Bingyan heard someone talk about this matter. "Grandpa... is very good!"
Xiao touched her temples and said, "My Bing has the best appearance."
Wei Bingyan smiled and was about to speak when she saw the thin curtain move and Xia Yuezhu walked in, "Madam, Miss Shen is here."
Shen Rouruo? Wei Bingyan's smiling eyes suddenly turned cold. As expected, she came.
