Cui Yunfeng really regretted it.
If he had married Xu Wanning and lived with Xu Wanning with peace of mind, even if he lost his title in the future, the Cui family would still be able to live a good life relying on the Xu family's money.
But he happened to want both money and love.
I want everything, but end up empty-handed with nothing.
It would be great if he could get back with Xu Wanning, and there would be no need for him to rely on others.
"I have a way to make her come with you, but after it's done, you have to promise me something..."
Wan Lan whispered a few words in Cui Yunfeng's ear.
Xu Wanning, that bitch, can't even think about living the rest of her life peacefully after harming her daughter.
Cui Yunfeng kept nodding: "Don't worry, aunt, I will never forget that it was she who ruined my family. If you don't tell me, after we reconcile, I will definitely make her life worse than death. But, I broke up with her In this case, I'm afraid she won't agree."
"What are you afraid of? My aunt will teach you a trick. Kneel down at the door of Xu's house every day, beg Xu Wanning to forgive you, and admit your mistakes to her. They say that a martyr woman is afraid of stalking her husband, and you and her have a good relationship as husband and wife. Women are all soft-hearted, as long as she relents, you will have hope."
that's all?
Cui Yunfeng thought there was a better way: "She hates me so much that I'm afraid that even if I kneel to death in front of her, she won't be soft-hearted."
Wan Lan smiled and said: "You alone can't do it. Don't worry, she's afraid of comparison. As long as she can't find someone better than you, she will naturally choose you."
Seeing Wan Lan's confident look, Cui Yunfeng was doubtful, but her aunt was the old lady of the Duke of Wei, so she must have some tricks up her sleeve, "I listen to my aunt."
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Aunt Gui came with a wound on her arm.
"Old madam, this servant is useless. I didn't catch Mr. Cui. He bit me and ran out." Aunt Gui looked guilty.
Wan Lan said it was okay: "You must have been holding back your nerves recently. From now on, this courtyard will be unblocked."
Cui Yunfeng looked happy, "Thank you, aunt."
The room was peaceful and happy, and Aunt Gui felt that she had missed something.
While she was getting medicine for Wan Lan, she told Xu Jia what had just happened.
Xu Jia frowned: "Did she doubt you?"
Aunt Gui shook her head: "Probably not. I have never shown any flaws."
"Then why should I avoid you?"
Aunt Gui can’t figure it out either.
"She went to the prison to see Wei Wei, and she asked me to stay outside."
Wan Lan, who had always had to do everything with Grandma Gui, avoided her one after another this time, which made Grandma Gui very confused.
Xu Jia thought for a while, "Just wait and see what happens. Don't send any news to the outside world recently, and don't let others take advantage of it."
Only when the people inside are safe can we protect those outside.
"Okay, how long will it take for her to recover from her illness?" Aunt Gui suddenly asked before leaving.
Xu Jia thought for a while and said, "In another month, it should be enough."
Aunt Gui smiled: "It's before the Chinese New Year, so it's almost time. Let's go back early and have a good New Year."
With a thank you still in her mouth, Nanny Gui had already left with the medicine.
Wan Lan was leaning on the couch, and Aunt Gui brought the medicine over. Wan Lan drank it all in one gulp, and Aunt Gui gave her a candied fruit.
"Old madam, do you want to rest for a while?"
"No need." Wan Lan shook her head: "We have something to do later, Wei Zhong will bring some people over. You will take all the servants out of the yard later, and don't let anyone get close."
Wei Zhong was an old man from the former Duke of Guo's Mansion. He used to serve the old Duke of Guo. After the old Duke of Guo left, he still worked in the mansion.
He only did some light work of growing flowers and raising birds. The work was the least, but the wages were the highest among all the servants.
He also came over to greet Wan Lan from time to time, and the two of them always had something to talk about.
Soon, Wei Zhong came with a group of women.
All of them had their heads lowered and behaved, and it was impossible to tell what they did.
There are more than ten or twenty.
Wan Lan gave an order, and Grandma Gui took all the servants out of the courtyard and closed the courtyard door.
Those little maids didn't have to do anything, they were just laughing and making trouble outside.
Aunt Gui did not smile, trying to recall the faces of the women she had just seen.
The clothes they wore were not expensive materials, and the hairpins on their heads were not expensive either. What was even more ridiculous was that they all had a big red flower on their heads.
A cucumber in her forties or fifties is still wearing a big red flower.
She also twisted her waist and hips when walking, and she didn't look like a serious lady.
"Did you see? The old lady is going to be a matchmaker for someone. She has called all the famous ladies in Kyoto."
Matchmaker?
Aunt Gui suddenly realized.
Yes, although this group of people don't have fancy makeup, they all have one distinctive feature, they all wear a big red flower!
"Not only is it a flower lady, I also saw several ladies with plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums in spring, summer, autumn and winter. And..."
"Stop counting, all the matchmakers in Kyoto are here."
"Who do you want the old lady to propose to? It's such a big move."
Aunt Gui listened to the words of the maids and looked at the high wall thoughtfully.
Talking about conspiracy?
What is Wan Lan trying to do to avoid her?
Cui Yunfeng immediately moved to a place not far from Xu Wanning's home.
It was a house bought by Wan Lan. Cui Yunfeng packed his luggage and went there with two people.
As for Cui Qingping, he rarely takes care of the child. Anyway, he will go home when he is tired from playing, and then he will just ask the people from the Duke's Mansion to deliver it.
Xu Wanning didn't know this.
Wei Wei got the Hualiu disease, which can be regarded as an evil with bad consequences. No matter how she was punished for Liu Changming's incident, for her, death from the Hualiu disease was just a matter of time.
And the longer she lives, the more ugly her death will be.
As for Lin Hui, she couldn't get any favors either.
He committed adultery with Wei Wei and poisoned Liu Changming. What awaits him will also be the punishment of the law.
Xu Wanning cooked specially, and everyone in Lihuayuan celebrated together.
The bacon brought by Mr. Huang smells good and tastes even better.
After boiling it in water, cut it into thin slices while it's hot, steam it on top of rice, fry the bacon with various ingredients, and a bacon feast is ready.
Xu Wanning specially went to get two pots of pear blossom wine.
Jixiang refilled the glasses excitedly for everyone, and when they were about to sit down, everyone who sat down stood up and looked towards the door.
Ji Xiang subconsciously looked towards the door.
He saw a man dressed in purple leaning against the door frame. The short door frame in the kitchen could not hide his long body.
Pei Heng also lowered his head slightly, slanted his legs, and looked at Xu Wanning with bright eyes: "Have you made delicious food again?"
Xu Wanning's eyebrows were crooked, and she stepped forward to greet him: "You're just in time, it hasn't started yet! Do you want to eat the bacon Mrs. Wang gave me?"
Pei Heng said with a smile on his face, "Eat."
Fusong followed behind: "..."
A few days ago, Mr. Wang even sent a few baskets of bacon. The kitchen specially prepared some dishes. Don’t you think the smell is too strong? It’s an eyesore and smells like a smoke in front of you. Didn’t you ask someone to remove it? ?
Xu Wanning smiled and said: "That's just right, let's eat together."
