Blessed Daughter

"Mother is willing to believe that kind of nonsense is your business, but I am stating an objective fact. Whether Wei Qingwan has an affair or not can be decided by Wei Qingwan's one-sided words. I remind mother that things are strange. If mother is not willing to consider me There is no other way." Wei Ruo said with a cold face.

"So what if something is wrong? This is the order of the Holy Majesty, can my Wei family still resist the order?" Yun asked Wei Ruo.

Without waiting for Wei Ruo to reply, Yun continued: "You pretend that I don't know the stakes? You pretend that I don't know that my Wei family should not be involved in the battle for the crown prince? I know the twists and turns better than I know." You know!"

"Since mother knows, then I have nothing to say."

After Wei Ruo finished speaking, she said goodbye to Yun Shi: "Don't disturb the mother's rest, the daughter will retire first."

Wei Ruo turned around and left, Yun looked at him coldly.

Cuiping whispered from the side: "Ma'am, Missy is also very kind. Madam also said just now that this marriage is also a troublesome matter for the Wei family. This is the same thing that Missy is worried about."

Yun said: "Her heart for the Wei family is right, but she has no good intentions for Wanwan. She can't see that Wanwan is good. Knowing that Wanwan has been named a side concubine, she would not think that it would be for Wanwan who is deeply involved in gossip. For any benefit, I can only think about how the Wei family will be implicated."

After a pause, Yun said again: "Also, she came to question me like this because she felt that I didn't know the stakes, what? Now that she has grown up and gained a good reputation outside, she actually thinks that I am the head of the family. The mistress is not as smart and scheming as she is? She is going to tell me what to do!"

Cuiping lowered her head, not daring to say any more.

Wei Ruo didn't ask Yun's for any useful information, so he went back to Tingsongyuan first.

For such a big event as the gift of marriage, there will inevitably be a lot of movement, and you will definitely be able to find news if you ask elsewhere.

It just so happened that Wei Ruo was going to visit the Yuan Mansion in the afternoon, and he might be able to get more information by asking the well-informed Mrs. Yuan.

So after lunch, Wei Ruo and Xiumei went out to Yuan Mansion.

Wei Ruo came to Yuan Mansion today to build a reservoir.

The bumper harvest and the court's awards gave the government and the local tyrants great confidence. After discussing with government officials and local tyrants, Yuan Zhengqin decided to put forward the idea of ​​building a reservoir that Wei Ruo had mentioned before. schedule.

For this reason, the Taizhou government intends to absorb another batch of refugees and arrange them to engage in the construction of the reservoir. Correspondingly, the Taizhou government is in charge of food and housing.

This is to carry through to the end the work-for-relief method proposed by Wei Ruo. If this matter can be done well, it can not only help the victims, stabilize people's hearts, but also create income and benefit the people.

Wei Ruo needs to roughly confirm the general scope of the reservoir construction based on the map, and then go to the field to investigate, draw drawings, and determine more detailed construction arrangements.

This is not a small project, and Wei Ruo has been busy for a long time.

Before discussing the matter with Mrs. Yuan's think tank, Wei Ruo went to see Mrs. Yuan and asked her about the marriage.

Mrs. Yuan already expected that Wei Ruo would come to ask herself about this matter: "As far as I know, not only the marriage of the sixth prince has been finalized this time, but also the matter of the sixth prince and the seventh prince's becoming kings. The time has been fixed. It will be on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. The sixth prince's wedding will be scheduled for the second half of next year, and he will marry the main concubine and side concubine at the same time; the seventh prince's marriage is yet to be decided."

"Does Madam know who the Sixth Prince's main concubine is, and why did she choose my sister as the side concubine?" Wei Ruo asked.

"The main concubine chooses the daughter of the Qi family, and everyone is not surprised by this arrangement. As for the side concubine who chooses your younger sister, no one knows the reason."

"But if you think about it carefully, your younger sister's identity is also in line with the status of being the side concubine of the sixth prince. Since the main concubine is the daughter of the Qi family, the status of the side concubine should not be too high. The background of the Zhongyi uncle's mansion and your father's current rank Just right."

"I'm a little puzzled why I chose your sister instead of you. If I were Concubine Qi, I would definitely choose you instead of your sister. After all, you are famous in front of the emperor."

"But maybe it's because you are famous in front of the emperor that the emperor is not sure about you."

Madam Yuan analyzed with Wei Ruo, and told Wei Ruo her thoughts without reservation.

"Thank you Ma'am, I understand." Wei Ruo said.

Madam Yuan took Wei Ruo's hand and patted it lightly twice: "Sister Ruo'er, don't worry, since the marriage was bestowed by the Holy Majesty, it's not your Wei family who chose to stand in line, and it doesn't mean your Wei family took the initiative to get involved."

Wei Ruo nodded: "That's a good thing to say, but I'm afraid that the caring people in the family will use this as a bridge."

"Fortunately, your father is a good official who wholeheartedly serves the people. He probably wouldn't want to get involved in these struggles. Just put your heart in your stomach." Madam Yuan comforted.

Wei Ruo nodded: "Madam, don't worry, these things won't affect me. Don't worry about the reservoir, I'll do my best."

After Wei Ruo finished talking with Mrs. Yuan, he went to the council hall to discuss serious matters with other people.

At dusk, Wei Ruo returned to the General's Mansion.

When Wei Ruo's carriage stopped at the gate, another carriage from the mansion also arrived at Xiaowei's mansion.

After Wei Ruo got out of the carriage, he saw the servants of the mansion moved the scorpion to the carriage, and waited respectfully aside.

Cui He was the one who came out of the carriage first, she lifted the curtain of the carriage, and then Wei Qingwan leaned out from inside.

Wearing a goose-yellow long dress full of fairy spirit, her hair is rolled up and adorned with a hosta.

The person looked thinner, but his complexion looked good, and his face was flushed.

Cui He and another maid came forward to help, and carefully helped Wei Qingwan off the carriage.

After getting out of the car, Wei Qingwan raised her head, her gaze met Wei Ruo's.

Seeing Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan calmed down, her face was calm, and she even smiled a little.

She walked up to Wei Ruo unhurriedly, and smiled slightly: "I met my sister."

Wei Ruo didn't answer.

Wei Qingwan looked at Wei Ruo, and continued: "My sister knows that my sister doesn't like my sister coming back to the mansion, but there is no way. In the next year, my sister will be planning to get married, and it will be inconvenient to the Zhuangzi, so I have to go back to the mansion. coming."

"But elder sister, please rest assured. When younger sister gets married, there will be only elder sister, a daughter from the first line, in the house. No one will argue with elder sister anymore."

"Although there is an order of seniority, it is reasonable for the elder sister to marry the younger sister, but now it is a marriage bestowed by the Holy One, which is slightly different. I have to wrong my elder sister. I hope my elder sister will not resent my younger sister for this."
