"If you don't have this intention, then cultivate yourself and cultivate your character, and don't think about things that you shouldn't think about. Okay, you have a lot of time to come today, so go back early." After a pause, he looked a little bit. Helplessly, he looked at his eldest daughter, who had an indifferent expression beside him, and said, "Treat her well, but don't let me know that you are not good to her."
Mei Yuanqing trembled all over. Didn't it mean that Mr. Wei and Wei Jingwei had been at odds for a long time and had ignored her? It seems that what he heard was not accurate. Looking at it today, it is not that the relationship between father and daughter has completely disappeared. Affection.
He bowed slightly, with a very sincere look on his face, "My son-in-law should take good care of Jing Wei."
"Yeah." Facing Mei Yuanqing, how could an old minister like Wei Fu, who had been fighting in the court for many years, not see through his lies?
It's just that now that the eldest daughter has been married, it's a done deal, and it's difficult to change the facts. I just hope that one day I can shock him.
The rest can only depend on Jing Wei's own abilities.
Sighing deeply, Father Wei waved his hand, "Go ahead."
"Yes, my son-in-law takes his leave."
Wei Jingwei passed by Father Wei, paused in her steps, looked at her father's gray hair on his temples, felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and said, "I heard that my father has been ill these days, and I hope you will take more care of yourself, so that... I ....We have less to worry about.”
After saying that, he walked forward hurriedly.
Father Wei paused after hearing this, and his somewhat stern face softened. The cold little face of his eldest daughter in front of him seemed to have returned to the past. In the past, the eldest daughter would follow behind him softly and call him daddy every day, pestering him. Play together.
time flies.
On the way back.
Both of them were silent, and Wei Jingwei even sat far away from the other side of the carriage in disgust.
"Ahem, it's okay to go back to the house today." Mei Yuanqing said suddenly.
"fine."
Seeing that Wei Jingwei was very indifferent, Mei Yuanqing frowned and then asked: "When Madam returned home today, didn't she talk to my father-in-law about...my career?"
There was a sneer on Wei Jingwei's face, and she didn't even want to act, "Do you think I should say something?"
"Madam, don't you know the truth about the union of husband and wife? My official career is not going well now and I have been unable to get promoted. You are also being hindered by others outside." His tone softened slightly, "My father-in-law now has quite a say in the court. Even the Holy Emperor gives the Wei family a bit of a thumbs-down, if... he opens the door, I'm sure my promotion will be around the corner."
........
After he finished speaking, Wei Jingwei looked at him with a look that looked like a fool. Sometimes she really wanted to open Mei Yuanqing's brain to see if it was full of tofu.
Also, the title of No. 1 Scholar that year was due to the examiner placing the wrong number.
Now that the two of them have reached this point, he actually thinks that he will speak kindly for him and consider his career?
"I'm afraid I've misunderstood. I'm not restricted by others outside. Everyone knows my father's name and the name of my maternal grandfather's family, so they don't look down on me." After a pause, she said with a half-smile but not a smile. Master, I don’t know.”
"You!" Mei Yuanqing felt that she was mocking him both inside and outside her words, but he had no evidence.
He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, restrained the words he was about to curse, and said in a good voice: "Don't you think about it for me, madam? I admit... I do not think about many things, but ... Countless ladies and ladies in this capital have come here like this, and they have been living their lives with a cold face over any trivial matter."
"I think Madam should think carefully about the future. I think I have nothing to do with you. I gave you the title of my wife and gave you respect, but you... have something in mind. .”
Any idea? She is just too knowledgeable.
No matter what, these days are becoming less and less day by day. The day she expects to leave is not long in the future, as long as she endures it a little longer.
Now everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
"I see."
Seeing Wei Jingwei's answer, Mei Yuanqing showed a look of satisfaction on his face.
He knew that Wei had no choice but to compromise after all. After marrying into the Mei family, she would have to rely on the Mei family for survival in the future. So what if my natal family and maternal grandfather’s family are powerful? You don't have to be obedient.
Seeing that he was proud, Wei Jingwei had a sneer on her face. The smile disappeared in a flash, as if it had never appeared at all.
As soon as she got home, Ci'antang called her over without stopping.
Mei's mother and Mei Xiaoqin were both there, and it seemed like something was going on.
"Mother, sister. But what's the matter?"
Mei's mother looked a little proud, and said in a rare and gentle tone: "I asked you to come today because I want to talk to you about Xiaoqin's marriage."
"Oh? It's because of this. I dare to ask my mother which family I am showing my sister to."
"Look, it's the second son of the Qihou family, Qi Yue." Mei's mother didn't hide her pride at all, and even Yahuazi burst into laughter.
"Mother, this matter is not yet certain, why are you talking nonsense." Mei Xiaoqin's face turned red, her eyes and brows were full of spring, and she was very satisfied with this marriage at first sight.
There are two large families in Beijing with the surname Qi. One is the family that Liu Meihua married into, and the other is the Marquis of Qi. Originally, this family was for Liu Haitao in the previous life, and it was this marriage that led to her tragic death.
Wei Jingwei felt secretly resentful when she thought of this. In her last life, she had gone out of her way to marry Mei Xiaoqin into the Qi Fu family. Qi Fu is now Liu Meihua's husband. He is good-looking and talented. He is good at all kinds of poems and songs. The Qi family is still a good one. As a kind-hearted person, there has never been any rumors about grooming one's daughter-in-law.
It can be said that he is a rare good family in Beijing.
But she didn't cherish her, and she didn't do it right, which made the Qi family restless, and even made the Qi family break off diplomatic relations with the Wei family out of anger.
Mei Xiaoqin went back to her parents' house to blame her for telling her something bad about her marriage. She said that Qi Fu was not manly and she only recited poems and read books all day long.
She will never help him in this life no matter what.
Since she likes men with masculine qualities, Qi Yue is good at the moment.
Thinking of this, she smiled coldly and was already looking forward to it.
"I don't think it's appropriate. Qi Yue's reputation is not good. Besides, the relationships in their family are also very complicated. I'm afraid that my sister will have a hard time after marrying him."
Although Wei Jingwei wanted Mei Xiaoqin to be punished, she had to take it out first. Mei Xiaoqin would not listen to her at all.
"Is that true?" Mei's mother's face suddenly became deflated and a little frustrated.
Although Qi Hou's family has a good family background, if her son fails and the family is very complicated, then she is unwilling to climb this high tree in her heart. No matter what, Mei Xiaoqin was also her only daughter, how could she just watch her suffer.
