Green tea was read, the villain's family begged me to be happy
Chapter 87 Cut off all retreat routes
Before dawn, Xu Wanying had already gotten up and washed.
When she walked to the front of the carriage and met up with Cen and the others, she noticed that they did not look very well. Even Cen, who was used to getting up early, did not look very energetic.
"Where is Jiang Chengyi? Go call him." Cen waved her hand impatiently.
The little maid immediately took the order and left. She quickly came back and replied softly, "Madam, the Fourth Master said that the invitation sent to him by the Wei family said that he would arrive an hour and a half later than you. It was because Master Wei and Madam Wei sympathized with his weak body and let him sleep more. You go first and he will go later."
When Cen heard this, her expression remained unchanged. She just flicked her sleeves and got into the car with a few people.
Xu Wanying and Li Chunlan, sisters-in-law, were riding in the same car. After they sat down in the car, Li Chunlan immediately couldn't help complaining.
"Oh, he is indeed worthy of being my biological son. I can't love him enough and he always makes trouble for others. I want to see what flowers the Wei family has prepared that I need to go there early in the morning to appreciate!"
Xu Wanying didn't have anything to complain about. Instead, she rubbed her hands and a look of excitement appeared on her face.
"Sister-in-law, please be patient. There are definitely more things to see and enjoy in the Wei family today than just flowers. There are also other things going on."
As she was talking, she suddenly heard a clear nursery rhyme coming from outside the car: "Throwing oneself into a lowly family to be treated as a fish eye, trying hard to get pearls. True and false, false and true, busy here and there, in vain..."
Xu Wanying immediately lifted the curtain to listen more carefully, but a speeding carriage passed by from behind and almost hit the group of children, and the nursery rhymes stopped abruptly.
She let out a long sigh, feeling a little regretful, but as she was in a hurry, she couldn't stop now, so she decided to let the servant inquire later.
The Jiang family arrived and met Cen Jie and her daughter. Both groups greeted them politely.
When Wei Jiao met Xu Wanying's gaze, she immediately raised her head and chest, and raised her hand to stroke the sapphire peacock hairpin on her hair.
This peacock hairpin is extremely complex and luxurious, with several sapphires inlaid on it as the peacock's tail feathers, which is very dazzling.
Xu Wanying smiled, but she was complaining in her heart: [System, if I tell her now that broken diamonds are worthless, will she be so angry that she jumps up and down? ]
System: [Host, be kind. ]
Xu Wanying sneered: [Forget it, I'm still waiting to see the fun, so I won't provoke her.]
The Wei family was obviously well prepared for this flower-viewing banquet, and there were even flowers made of ice sculptures placed in the courtyard.
"The invitation asks everyone to come early so that you can see these ice flowers in the garden. When the sun gets high later, these ice flowers will have to be moved to the shadow in the corner. They won't look as beautiful among these colorful flowers!" Cen Jie explained softly.
The guests praised her endlessly, and even said that Mrs. Wei had a very clever idea. Upon hearing this, Cen Jie raised her eyebrows slightly with a somewhat proud look on her face.
The male guests arrived halfway through the flower-viewing banquet.
Of course, they would not go to the backyard to disturb the female guests, but would hand over a few poems from time to time, all of which were very elegant and made people praise them.
Jiang Chengyi's poems were also included, and the guests praised him in various ways, almost praising him to the sky.
"It's true that a tiger father will have a dog son, Madam Hou, you really gave birth to a good child for the Jiang family."
"Yes, look at the poem written by Fourth Master Jiang. It is truly a masterpiece. He will definitely become a great poet in the future!"
Although Cen Ying had a smile on her face, every word of these compliments was like a knife stabbing into her heart.
She knew best how talented this evildoer was in literature.
The poem in front of me looks pretty good, but it is definitely not amazing. If it weren't for the halo of the Loyalty Marquis' Mansion, it would never have received such high praise.
Furthermore, even if this poem is not amazing, it was definitely not completed by Jiang Chengyi independently. It must have been polished by Wei Xian, or even personally guided him in writing it.
Jiang Chengyi, the fake young master, is admired and envied by everyone, but her biological son is still hiding in Jixiang Pavilion and no one mentions him at all.
Cen Ying looked at the poem and wanted to tear it up, but she held back and nonchalantly responded to the people around her.
Only occasionally would she look at Nanny Yan beside Wei Jiao, and only when Nanny Yan persuaded Wei Jiao to leave would she look away.
Don't worry, her net has been set up, and she can destroy it all in a moment.
"Mammy, is my cousin here?" Wei Jiao walked out of the flower hall and asked in a low voice.
"He has been here for more than half an hour. The master has been talking to him and even called him to the study. He just came out of the study. I arranged for someone to wet his clothes. Now is a good time for him to be alone!"
The master and servant walked to a side yard. There were not many people here, but the yard was kept clean and tidy. It was a place for outsiders to rest.
A little maid who was guarding the Wei Mansion outside the courtyard, upon seeing Nanny Yan coming, immediately bowed and walked away quickly.
"Miss, please go in. Your cousin is inside." Nanny Yan patted the back of her hand.
"Mammy, I'm a little scared." Wei Jiao hesitated before going in.
After all, this was completely contrary to the education she had received since she was a child. What she was going to do next was not only unorthodox, but also shameless, and she would be scolded by others.
"Young lady, think about Li Chunlan and Xu Wanying. They were both looked down upon by others, but after marrying into the Marquis's Mansion, they suddenly became the ones that everyone admired. Don't you want to be so glamorous?" Nanny Yan said.
When Wei Jiao heard this, all her worries disappeared and she became full of confidence.
"Mammy, you must call mother and aunt here."
"Don't worry, young lady. I won't do it. Just to make sure this matter is settled, no matter what happens outside, you must not come out before I call you." Nanny Yan warned her.
Wei Jiao nodded repeatedly, blushing and saying, "Mammy, I'll go then."
Looking at her back as she walked away, Nanny Yan's eyes revealed a bit of struggle, and finally she called Wei Jiao again.
"Miss, we just need to let the Madam and the Marquis' wife see you and your cousin together. It's better not to actually do it." Nanny Yan was very worried.
Wei Jiao seemed to have figured it out at this moment, and was even more free and easy than Nanny Yan. Although her face was still red, her overall state was different.
"Mammy, I'm just afraid that my aunt won't admit it. You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. I'm willing to do anything to become my cousin's wife." After she said that, she raised her head, lifted up the loose hair on her forehead, and gently tucked it behind her ears.
This was a very simple action, but when Wei Jiao did it at this moment, it was quite charming, completely free of the girl's shyness and embarrassment.
Nanny Yan was stunned on the spot, watching her leave until she could no longer see her back, then she smiled bitterly and said, "Young lady, I wanted to leave a way out, but you cut off all your retreats."
The garden was very lively. Some of the female guests were still evaluating the newly delivered poems from the front hall, while others were itching to write poems and asked their maids to serve them with pens and ink. With such a beautiful view in front of them, they also wanted to recite poems.
"Madam, the young lady said that she has prepared a surprise in the East Garden. Let all the ladies and young ladies go over there and take a look."
Liu Zhi, the maidservant beside Wei Jiao, came running over to deliver the message.
"Hey, Jiaojiao has prepared a surprise, let's go and take a look!"
Cen Jie hadn't heard of any surprise and was about to ask in private what was going on, but the maid's voice was too loud and instantly attracted the attention of others, so she couldn't be stopped.
"Since you are all interested, let's go and take a look. But I guess that girl is just tinkering with some gadgets. It's nothing special. She just thinks it's a treasure."
Cen Jie blinked and quickly started to cover for her.
The maid had passed on the message, raising the bar so high that it aroused the interest of these ladies and noble girls. If they saw anything ordinary when the time came, it would not be considered a surprise at all, and they would probably criticize them. So she, the old mother, had to take action herself to lower everyone's expectations.
"You guys go. I won't go. The fragrance of the flowers gives me a headache." Cen Ying found a place to sit down, but she didn't seem to be in the mood at all.
"Madam Hou, this is a surprise prepared by your niece. You must go."
"Exactly. If you have a headache, it's just right to go out for a walk. There's no flower scent outside, so it can relieve your headache."
The other ladies hurried to persuade her, and Cen Ying could not resist and had to get up and go with them.
