Princess Yuanheng was a little repelled by Li Qingyi's identity and frowned without answering.
Li Qingyi looked at her and smiled slightly: "Miss Wei, you are polite."
Wei Jin'er said obediently: "No matter what, we are also sisters. Sister, please don't be so polite."
Everyone in the Wei family stood on the porch to hide from the rain and watch what was going on. Although they didn't hear what they said, they all had different expressions when they saw the two of them talking and laughing back and forth.
The second lady touched her cheek with her handkerchief and said, "Interesting!"
The third lady glanced at her and said, "This kind of appearance is far inferior to that of the eldest girl in our family..."
When several girls from the Wei Mansion heard this, the smiles in their eyes couldn't help but widen a bit, but they all held up their handkerchiefs and remained silent.
In this case, the third lady dared to say it, but they couldn't.
Princess Yuanheng didn't want to be looked at like a monkey, so she ordered her servants: "Take Miss Li down to change clothes and freshen up, and then go to the flower hall to meet the elders later."
Miss Li?
When everyone heard this title, there was another commotion.
Although there is nothing wrong with calling Li Qingyi "Miss Li".
But Princess Yuanheng's purpose in picking up Li Qingyi was to keep her in her hands for the use of the Wei family.
Using this title does not sound like a vassal, but rather a guest...
Li Qingyi smiled when he saw their reactions.
This is the initiative she wants.
She is a guest and is not their business.
Under countless gazes, Li Qingyi went to the yard prepared by the Wei family to freshen up and change clothes.
Jianlan's face was full of sorrow, fearing that her girl would suffer a loss, "Although everyone in the Wei family is laughing, no matter how I see you infiltrating people, the girl should be more careful!"
When Li Qingyi heard this, he smiled and acted with a fake face. How could he not infiltrate others?
However, compared to the aristocratic families in the capital, the Wei family has a shallow foundation. According to Wei Shicheng's marriage to Princess Yuanheng, it has only been around ten years.
Therefore, for Li Qingyi, the personnel affairs in the mansion are not complicated.
What needs special attention is the existing connections of the Wei family.
What she will do in the coming period is to separate these connections from the Wei family one by one.
Although difficult, it is not necessarily impossible to achieve.
"Girl, which outfit do you want to wear?"
"It doesn't matter, it's the same in every outfit."
Heng Wu smiled: "That's right, the girl has an extraordinary appearance and looks the same no matter what she wears."
Li Qingyi freshened up a little, and then someone came to call her.
So impatient?
"Then let's go."
Heyan Hall is a large courtyard with two courtyards, a hall at the front and back, surrounded by corridors on all sides, and a lotus pond and rockery in the backyard.
This is the upper room where Mrs. Wei lives.
The upper bedroom is five rooms wide and seven bays deep. There is a plaque hanging in the hall saying "Songs and Cranes Prolong the Year". At the connection between the east and west sides of the upstairs and the two rooms, there are large brick carvings like screens, which are carved with the pattern of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea". It is very complicated and gorgeous with double eaves, green tiles and Zhuzhou painted buildings.
This house was given to Princess Yuanheng by the Queen Mother.
Later, Wei Shicheng became rich and didn't want to be talked about, so he bought it from Princess Yuanheng.
From then on, the house changed its surname to Wei.
Counting the entire capital, such luxurious houses are rare and cannot be bought with money.
As soon as Li Qingyi entered the room, the quiet scent of Linglingxiang hit her face. In the dense mist of fragrance, she glanced at her and obediently saluted everyone, "Qingqing has met the old lady, the second lady and the third lady."
The second lady looked at her with a smile and praised her: "What a beauty. With such an iconic appearance, anyone who sees her will fall in love and not be able to take their eyes away."
As she said that, she took off the jade and purple spring bracelet on her wrist and put it on Li Qingyi, saying: "Good boy, don't see anyone else. Once you're here with us, it's just like you're at home. If you're willing, you can Come to the second room often and talk to me."
Faced with the affection of the second lady, Li Qingyi also smiled in a humorous manner: "Where is the second lady? The princess took me to live in the Wei family for a while. I'm afraid it will disturb everyone. If I can get close to the elders, I would love it. "
The second lady was shocked when she heard this. She raised her head and looked at the pure beauty that could be seen through Li Qingyi's eyes at a glance. She thought it was her own enthusiasm that moved the girl, "That's good! That's good!"
The eyes of the third lady on the side flashed with sarcasm, "Second sister-in-law, I have never seen you so enthusiastic. Maybe you want to compete with the princess for your daughter."
The second lady's eyebrows were curved: "I do have this intention, but I'm afraid that the princess won't be able to let it go!"
Li Qingyi stood aside and watched them fight, but he didn't smile.
The three houses of the Wei family have always been at odds.
But this is not surprising. There is competition in the back house. Either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind.
The third lady was secretly disgusted by the second lady's hypocrisy, and said half-jokingly and half sarcastically: "Second sister-in-law is really true. If you really have this intention, you should prepare more generous gifts. How can you send us away with just a Spring Colorful bracelet? Qingqing?" Qing, don't pay attention to her, she will say such nice things to coax you! Come here, come to me!"
Li Qingyi walked over obediently, and the third lady pulled out the seven-treasure glazed gold hairpin from her bun and gave it to Li Qingyi: "My little girl is at the age where she loves beauty. She should not be so plain and dress up lively."
This Qibao glazed gold engraved hairpin is so exquisite and precious that even men, not to mention women, will look at it a few times when they see it.
The second lady glanced at the hairpin and looked a little unhappy.
Even if you have a strong foundation, sooner or later you will squander it all!
But the third lady is really not short of money, "This hairpin always looks gaudy when worn by others. Only your appearance can handle it. Go ahead and play with it!"
"Thank you, Madam Third, for your love."
Princess Yuanheng sat aside and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart when she saw the two of them being very affectionate towards Li Qingyi.
If her daughter is really favored by the Wei family, she will definitely be inseparable from the Wei family in the future. There is nothing wrong with them currently trying to please her and support her.
But she herself couldn't get close to Li Qingyi, even though she was also her biological daughter.
Princess Yuanheng frowned.
Perhaps it's because her existence reminds her of "some past" everywhere.
Mrs. Wei over there looked at Li Qingyi silently for a long time, and finally said, "This girl is indeed lovable."
She waved to Mother Xu, and Mother Xu took a small box and gave it to Li Qingyi.
Li Qingyi opened it and saw a box of bright-colored Nanzhu.
She looked up at Mrs. Wei who was sitting in the seat.
Mrs. Wei was over fifty years old. She was stern and unsmiling. The corners of her eyes and lips were severely drooped, and her wrinkles were very deep, which added a bit of cruelty to her cold face. Even when she smiled, it seemed to be cold.
Li Qingyi in his previous life was frightened when he saw this face.
But now she doesn't feel that by following Qin Zeng, she has seen too many human feelings and intrigues.
Mrs. Wei is just an old thing who needs to be taken care of.
She smiled and said: "This Nanzhu is better than anything I have ever seen! Thank you, madam!"
Mrs. Wei's tone was gentle, showing the kindness of the elders to the younger ones. "You and Jin'er are about the same age. I think you can talk to each other. You don't have to be restrained on weekdays. You can play with the sisters in the house. Just treat this place as your own home, and if there’s anything you’re not used to in the yard, or if there’s anything missing, just ask your mother for it, and that’s fine.”
Li Qingyi responded obediently, pretending to follow the arrangements.
Mrs. Wei was very satisfied, "It's been a long journey, so just go and rest first, and then come back with your mother later."
"yes."
Li Qingyi resigned and walked out of Heyan Hall. However, before he walked a few steps, a girl hurried over, saluted to her and entered the house.
She paused and heard the word "rumors" vaguely mentioned inside. She couldn't help but smile and walked away.
