Unexpectedly, the Liu family would invite Wei Jingwei so kindly, and the look on his face was a bit complicated.
She suppressed her emotions and could only follow Wei Jingwei all the way inside.
Mei Xiaoqin attended the banquet and visited many aristocratic houses. But Liu's yard was an eye-opener for her.
The pavilions, mountains, rivers, streams, and long winding bridges all reminded her of the Liu family's overwhelming wealth.
She rolled her eyes, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. A smile appeared on her face, and her pace quickened a bit.
Arriving at the main courtyard, Madam Zhang was sitting at the top, and Madam Ye and Madam Zheng, who was sitting at the bottom, didn't know what to say and were laughing very happily.
Mrs. Ye was a good person and didn't know what to say. Mrs. Zhang smiled so hard that she couldn't stop praising her.
Wei Jingwei stood at the door, with a smile on her face, and walked in.
She walked to the middle position and bowed towards the top position.
"Wei Jingwei paid a visit to her grandmother. She seems to be in better spirits after not seeing her for a few days."
Wei Jingwei's words made Mrs. Zhang laugh, and she hurriedly waved to her to sit next to her, and affectionately pulled her to chat about household matters.
Mei Xiaoqin felt a little unhappy when she saw that Wei Jingwei was only talking and didn't mention herself at all.
He took a step forward and said loudly, "Mei Xiaoqin pays homage to the old lady."
Her sharp voice broke the atmosphere of the room, and everyone couldn't help but look over. It's just that this little girl looked unfamiliar and quite unruly, so she immediately frowned.
Zhang was interrupted when she was speaking, and the smile on her face faded a little, but she still smiled and said: "You are Mei Yuanqing's sister. She is a neat girl."
Mrs. Zhang has been immersed in this backyard all her life, and she still has a certain temperament when it comes to people.
Seeing that Mei Xiaoqin was arrogant and her eyes were moving around, she knew that she was a high-spirited person with evil intentions.
Thinking about Wei Jingwei's temperament, she must have suffered a lot in the Mei family.
She nodded towards Aunt Jin beside her, "Bring the box on my table."
Mei Xiaoqin knew that this must be a meeting gift for her. Thinking of the wealth of the Liu family, she couldn't help but feel a little more hopeful.
After Grandma Jin agreed, she walked into the main hall in a few steps, and then quickly came out from the side room with a wooden box in her hand. She walked straight towards Mei Xiaoqin and handed the box into her hand.
Mrs. Zhang: "It's your first time here. This is my meeting gift for you. See if you like it."
Mei Xiaoqin opened it with joy, and inside was indeed a bracelet of very good quality.
Looking at the transparent quality, you can see that it is worth a lot.
She gestured with the bracelet a few times on her wrist. These days, her jewelry had been returned to Wei Jingwei by Mei Yuanqing. She didn't have much money on hand and was very short of jewelry. As soon as I received the bracelet, I put it on immediately.
She was happy in her heart and it showed on her face. She took a few steps forward and saluted happily to thank him.
Zhang just had a slight smile on his face and didn't make any expression.
Ye and Zheng exchanged expressions, looking down upon the Mei family. Looking at the young lady from the Mei Mansion, she was so happy to get a bracelet of average quality, and she was so happy that she actually put it on on the spot after receiving the gift. It would be fine if they were close friends, but this was her first time as a guest in a man's house, and she actually acted The room is also very unruly.
After Mrs. Zhang finished dealing with this, she focused on talking to Wei Jingwei.
She held Wei Jingwei's delicate little hand affectionately and asked her common questions such as how she was doing these days.
Wei Jingwei also picked some that the old man liked and answered them one by one.
"Cousin Wei!"
Before Liu Meihua arrived, a loud voice had already entered the inner room.
She wore a dress with flowers everywhere, and a pair of embroidered satin shoes with a large bead on the toe.
The hairpins on her head were inlaid with large rubies, making them look extremely luxurious for a moment.
She walked in in a few steps, saluted the elders and said hello, then stepped forward and took Wei Jingwei's hand and said with a smile, "I haven't seen my cousin these days, but my cousin seems like a different person."
Wei Jingwei smiled slightly, "Don't you look good?"
Liu Meihua held her hand and shook her head, swaying casually. It does show a bit of girlish charm that is rarely seen in daily life.
She blinked narrowly, "My cousin is probably going to suppress all those ladies and ladies today."
Mrs. Zhang heard their whispers, glanced at Liu Meihua, and said angrily: "As soon as you enter the house, you only have eyes for your cousin. Why don't you take her out for a walk?"
Liu Meihua smiled and saluted, "Okay, don't worry, grandma, I will take good care of my cousin." After a pause, she looked at Wei Jingwei pretending to be serious, and then looked at Mrs. Zhang: "Grandma, cousin, this sign looks like , that looks like our cousin from the Liu Mansion. It’s almost the same as grandma’s direct granddaughter.”
These words made everyone present laugh. Liu Meihua's words were very good. She praised Wei Jingwei and then said that she could be worthy of the Zhang family's direct granddaughter. Wouldn't it be a compliment to Zhang family for her extraordinary appearance and bearing.
Wei Jingwei thought Liu Meihua was careless, but thinking about it, a young lady raised by a family like the Liu family would definitely not be a fool.
Mrs. Zhang was so amused that she burst out laughing. The pearl earrings in her ears were dangling. She pointed at Liu Meihua and said, "You are such a skinny monkey. You always talk in one way. But you said it well today. Your cousin is like this." In terms of appearance and bearing, I had other plans at the beginning. I wanted to choose a noble family, but Mei thought of my daughter and made the decision herself, which made me worry in vain. "
Wei Jingwei's eyes heated up, and then she called out very affectionately: "Grandma."
Mrs. Zhang patted her hand and said, "Your mother passed away early. Grandma had already planned for you, but who knows. But if you can have a good life in Mei Mansion, that's all. If you are unhappy in any way, my Liu family will , is your backing."
Mrs. Zhang didn't even look at Mei Xiaoqin's face after saying this. No matter who the Mei family was, they dared to look down on her granddaughter.
She had grown up doting on her daughter who died early. Since she died early, she would protect Wei Jingwei for her.
Wei Jingwei knew that she had made her position clear today, and her heart was moved.
Only Mei Xiaoqin was sitting there feeling awkward.
Everyone picked up some light topics and chatted for a while.
"There are many guests today, so just stay nearby and don't go too far," Ye asked.
Liu Meihua agreed one by one and pulled Wei Jingwei out.
Seeing that it was inappropriate for her to stay, Mei Xiaoqin bowed and followed outside.
As soon as she left, Mrs. Zhang's face fell.
She slapped the small table next to her hard, her face gloomy as if she was about to drip.
