After sitting down, Zhang Ruoruo still disappeared. Aunt Ruan looked at the empty seat, picked up the tea, rolled her eyes, covered her lips and said with a smile: "Aunt Ruan is so favored. Today, I can still be late. If I would never dare to do it if I were a slave."
After hearing this, Wei Jingwei's eyes turned with some sarcasm.
It seems that Aunt Ruan and Zhang Ruoruo are completely at odds. She was tired last night and rested not long after returning to the yard. Just now she didn't know where Mei Yuanqing went last night.
This morning, Lian'er went out to visit the house early in the morning and found out that she had gone to Zhang Ruoruo.
For this reason, I heard that the man from Ci'an Hall smashed several tea cups and lost his temper before going to bed.
It seems that Mei Yuanqing and Zhang Ruoruo still have some real feelings for each other.
Although Aunt Ruan was dissatisfied, she did not dare to react in any way for fear of making Mei Yuanqing annoying.
"My maid Lian'er is very good at making snacks. Come and try how it tastes. If you like it when you leave later, I'll have someone pack some for you to take back."
Aunt Ruan saw that she didn't answer her words, but she still behaved calmly, so she asked for some snacks gratefully.
The two chatted for a while, and then she left.
Before leaving, Wei Jingwei fulfilled her promise and asked someone to pack some peach blossoms for her to take back.
After everyone had walked for a while, she opened the window. She saw that the weather outside today was not bad. Wei Jingwei ordered: "Put my pen, ink, paper and inkstone under the window. I want to practice calligraphy for a while. By the way, come on I returned to the Liu family with a copybook given to me by my second aunt, and used it for Xia Ning to practice calligraphy. Last time I saw that his calligraphy was very good."
Lian'er went to deliver the copybooks, while Su'er took care of the pen and ink.
After writing a big letter, the people from Zhuxi Court belatedly came to report, saying that Aunt Zhang was a little tired last night and felt a little uncomfortable this morning, so she would not come to treat An Jingcheng to tea today.
Su Er: "Miss, this Ruoruo is too arrogant."
Why didn't Wei Jingwei know that this was just to save her own face? If she was allowed to do this, she wouldn't know what the servants would say and laugh at her in the yard.
Who didn't know where Mei Yuanqing stayed with her last night, and why she was tired, yet he used such excuses to deliberately disgust her.
Wei Jingwei smiled lightly and stopped the pen in her hand nonchalantly, "Since she feels uncomfortable, ask a doctor to take a look at her. You don't have to let people say that I, the mistress, don't take care of her. Then you go and talk to Mei Yuan Qing said, "If Aunt Zhang is not feeling well, let her rest for a few more days, and tell him how well-behaved Aunt Ruan is today, and let him go over and take a look."
Su'er smiled and said, "This slave knows how to do it, but the young lady is smart."
This time she wanted to see Zhang Ruoruo do this.
If you don't call yourself sick, then you should act like a sick person.
You have to do enough to make a show, right?
In the evening, a maid came to invite me, saying that it was Mei's mother who asked me to go to Ci'an Hall.
Wei Jingwei followed soon after. She was wearing crescent white regular clothes, with just a jade hairpin on her head, which was very unique.
As soon as he entered the door, he heard Brother Cheng pinching the hem of Mei Mu's clothes and saying aggrievedly: "Grandma, does mother not like her grandson? If she likes her grandson, why didn't she give that copybook to her grandson instead of giving it to that servant Xia? rather."
Seeing her grandson's aggrieved look, Mei's mother felt so distressed that her heart, liver, and lungs felt uncomfortable, so she hugged him and comforted him again.
Seeing Wei Jingwei come in, her tone became a little unhappy, "Ms. Wei, it is said that you sent a very valuable copybook to Xia Ning. You must know that Brother Cheng is your serious son and your future support. , your behavior is really putting the cart before the horse."
Wei Jingwei stood in the middle and said calmly, "If it's because of this, it's because I think Xia Ning loves to write very much, so I sent it to you. I don't know if Brother Cheng also likes to write. I'll give it to you some other time." Send some to Brother Cheng as well."
Brother Cheng was just complaining and acting coquettishly, when did he want to practice calligraphy!
After hearing what she said, I was about to refute, but I opened my mouth but no words came out.
He was just not satisfied with his mother's treatment of Xia Ning...,
Mother Mei didn't know what Brother Cheng was thinking, so she smiled when she heard the words, thinking that Wei Jingwei was being obedient.
Then he smiled and said, "I heard that you found a doctor for Aunt Zhang."
Wei Jingwei nodded, "I heard that she was not feeling well and didn't even come for today's tea ceremony, so I wanted to find a doctor to see her in case she becomes seriously ill."
When Brother Cheng heard about Aunt Zhang, he was a little confused at first, but then he remembered that his mother was now a concubine.
Since the last incident, he and Zhang Ruoruo have become somewhat estranged. They have never been together these days, but they are biological children after all. When he heard that the other person was sick, he stood up and said anxiously: "Mother... Aunt Zhang is sick, why didn't I know. Then I'm going to see her. "
Mei's mother frowned, grabbed him, and warned: "She is an aunt, so go and see if she can do it. A doctor is enough."
Brother Cheng couldn't get away and felt very aggrieved, "But..."
Mei Yuanqing sat aside and finally said in a cold voice, "Listen to your grandmother, Aunt Zhang wants to come here without incident. Don't make trouble. Go to your mother if you have nothing to do. You might as well learn to calm down a little."
He didn't have to listen to Mei Yuanqing's words, but Brother Cheng had to listen to Mei Yuanqing's words. He had always been a little afraid of this father.
When he was away from home, his father was very tolerant and doting on him, but since he returned to Mei Mansion, he has been strict with him in everything.
Wei Jingwei stood there and looked coldly at the acting skills of these three people. If you were not blind, you would definitely see that the relationship between Brother Cheng and Zhang Ruoruo was unusual.
It seems that her eyes were really bad in her previous life.
Even Brother Cheng can't tell such a simple thought.
It's not a wasted death.
Mei Yuanqing seemed to know Zhang Ruoruo's temperament, and said to Wei Jingwei after careful consideration: "I understand that you asked the maid to pass the message. Aunt Ruan is a sensible person. I will go and see her later."
"Aunt Ruan came to my yard early in the morning and was waiting. I thought she was doing well."
Hearing her praise a woman so much in front of him, Mei Yuanqing frowned, but didn't say anything in the end.
But Mei Mu, who was at the head, said: "Aunt Ruan came from my place, so she is naturally a good person. Her temperament and appearance are outstanding. You have to be nicer to others in the future."
Mei Yuanqing had already refuted Mei Mu's intention last night, and he couldn't refute it again today, so he could only nod.
The conversation was almost over, and Mei Yuanqing took Brother Cheng to talk about some schoolwork matters. Maybe it was because he was punished a little more harshly last time. Brother Cheng has been attending class and finishing classes in a disciplined manner these days. Being supervised in doing homework.
