"I don't know what the second Young Master Wei is thinking. I always feel terrified."
Before Wei Cheng's people left, they kindly helped them restore the furnishings in the store to their original state. After the Wei family's troubles, there was no business in the store all afternoon. Father Shen sat on a chair in the store, frowning. Lock.
"Yinxiao, when the elder of the Li family left, he didn't say anything, right?"
Shen Yinxiao knew that his father now knew about the relationship between Wei Cheng and him, and was worried that if Li You found out about it, the marriage between the two families would be ruined.
"Speaking of which, I really like that child. The child's mother is bedridden all year round and doesn't care about family affairs. Naturally, she won't have time to teach her daughter-in-law in the future. The child is young and can't remember anything. The eldest son of the Li family also went to Imperial College and is a scholar. , maybe you can go out and work as a servant in the future, which is decent and leisurely. If you can get married, your mother and I will feel relieved."
"I didn't say anything. When I left, I said I would come over to help tomorrow."
"real?"
Shen Yinxiao nodded: "Really."
"That's good..." Father Shen breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."
"It's better to seize the day and settle the marriage as soon as possible. There will be long nights and many dreams." Shen's mother reminded, and she couldn't help but sigh when she recalled the past.
"It would be great if the Jiang family hadn't left. The boating child is sensible and the same age as our Yinxiao. We had agreed with the Jiang family's sister-in-law that the baby would be married. If we had let you get married early, why would we have gotten into trouble?" The Wei family..."
"It's okay if I want to marry you, but..."
Suddenly it was like a needle stuck in her heart.
Shen Yinxiao was a little irritated: "Mom, don't mention old things."
The person who was interested walked away, but the person who was unintentional was entangled. The biggest trouble at the moment was Wei Cheng. That person... was not someone who would give up just because of an engagement.
Shen Yinxiao sighed silently.
For several days, Wei Cheng didn't show up again, and he was probably still angry.
She did act a little too harshly that day.
But he might have forgotten her a long time ago. Maybe, at this time, he was hugging her from left to right, surrounded by flocks of birds, and he didn't remember Shen Yinxiao.
But Li You still comes to help every day.
On the eighth day of the lunar month, the wind was warm and the sun was beautiful.
Li You hired two porters and brought them the bride price and the wedding cake. The bride price was a full one hundred taels. Father Shen, who was used to being timid, finally felt proud, and with a smile on his face, he took Li You and gave the wedding cake to the neighbors. Neighbors, they say it makes everyone happy.
He came today and brought good news.
The governor of Youzhou heard that Li You was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, so he recruited him to join the government office as a disciple and continue to preach and teach in the public schools run by the government office.
This was a happy occasion. Father Shen took out the daughter Hong that he had not finished drinking last time, and the family sat together for another drink in the evening. The next day was Li You's first day at the government office. In the afternoon on the day of midnight, Shen's mother kicked Shen Yinxiao out of the store and asked her to pick up Li You from the government office.
She had no choice but to change into a long goose yellow satin dress and walked away.
When she arrived at the gate of the government office, it was still early and there were only two or three subordinates on duty. She stood and waited in front of the stone lion at the gate. The wild roses on the wall were blooming just right. She stood under the roses and looked at the blooming flowers. The pungent flowers were stunned.
She always felt a little confused these days. Without Wei Cheng's interruption, the days flew by so fast.
The mother said that she was a new daughter-in-law who was afraid of getting into the sedan chair. She smiled bitterly. When she was with Wei Cheng, she had forced her to get married countless times in secret and overtly. Wei Cheng was just indifferent. Now that she was really getting married, she was a little reluctant to let him go.
"Yinxiao? Why are you here?"
A familiar voice came from behind, interrupting her scattered thoughts. When she turned around, a smile instantly appeared on Gujing Wubo's face, "There aren't many things going on in the store. I'll pick you up for your next shift. How about it? First Is it okay to take office in heaven?"
Li You smiled, "Everything is going well. I'm lucky enough to get a few words of praise from the governor today, but I don't dare to be proud, so I can only be careful in everything."
Although he was smiling, something strange flashed across his eyebrows. Shen Yinxiao had been observing his words and expressions for a long time, how could he not notice: "Did something unpleasant happen today?"
Li You paused, "It's not a big deal, it's just that a few students in the public school are a little difficult to restrain..."
Shen Yinxiao understood that the students in public schools were no better than those in private schools. They were all the children of wealthy officials and officials. It was common for them to have some tempers and to think too high. I'm afraid some of them would be suffered by Li You in the future.
She frowned, and Wei Cheng's name came to mind.
Li Youyou, the governor, heard that he was knowledgeable and recruited him to take up a post in the government office. Could it be...
"Second Young Master."
A low greeting sounded, interrupting her speculation, and the two of them turned their heads following the sound.
At the gate of the government office, there was a very golden and gorgeous carriage parked. Wei Cheng was dressed in mysterious clothes, with a magpie-tailed crown, a sword and jade pendant around his waist, and a long jade stand in front of the steps. He just got off the carriage, and the soldiers at the gate of the government office They all knelt down and saluted.
The eyebrows are as sharp as a knife, the tail of the eyebrows is flying, the eyes are like cold stars, and the manner is perfect.
The two of them were as angry as the last time they met.
She rarely saw him like this. He was never particular about his clothes. Sometimes he would come to her wearing coarse linen clothes that hadn't been washed for who knows how long. Sometimes she really had the illusion that the two of them were together. It was reciprocal. Wei Cheng was within reach of him, so he naturally had the delusion to marry him.
Today she suddenly realized that the distance between the two of them was not just a matter of reaching out. They looked very close but were actually very far away. She was not even qualified to chat with him again.
There is a dense pain in my heart.
When he came closer, Wei Cheng's eyes finally seemed to find that Shen Yinxiao was also there and fell on her. First he took a deep look at Li You's hand on her shoulder, and then his eyes moved from that hand He moved away and looked her up and down.
"So Mrs. Shen is here too." He curled his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes.
She didn't know if it was Shen Yinxiao's imagination, but she seemed to hear a "clucking" sound from gritting her teeth.
"Second Young Master Wei." Li You raised his hands and bowed, deliberately blocking Shen Yinxiao behind him.
In the past, as a commoner, Li You didn't have to worry about these etiquette, but now it's different. Wei Cheng is the second son of Youzhou, and he has become his subordinate.
"Are you still used to doing errands?" Wei Cheng said quietly.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he acted naturally like a superior.
Li You was about to be her husband-in-law, and Shen Yinxiao didn't like watching her husband-in-law grovel in front of the former...man, which made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Everything is fine, Second Young Master Wei is interested." Li You also noticed this intentional or unintentional oppression. As a man, he didn't want to show his cowardice in front of the woman who was about to become his wife, or to the man who coveted his woman. Smile.
"Zhong Yang." A soft female voice came from inside the carriage. "Who are you talking to?"
A snow-white wrist stretched out from behind the reed curtain of the carriage.
Chen Yinxiao's heart suddenly twitched and he looked over unconsciously.
The strange girl was wearing a long aqua gauze dress that was lying on the ground. The red gold tassels on the temples were swaying, which made her skin more fair and delicate. She picked up the skirt and slowly came out of the carriage. She saw that there were no pedals on the ground. , she frowned slightly.
"Careful, slow down."
Wei Cheng, who was talking to Li You, turned around when he heard the sound, raised his hand to hold the noble girl's hand, and carefully helped her out of the carriage.
Wei Cheng said to the girl in a warm voice. "It's windy outside, you go in first."
"No, I want to go in with you." Wang Yuanjun pulled his sleeve coquettishly.
Wei Cheng frowned slightly, but still didn't say anything.
To be able to get along with Wei Cheng like this on such an occasion, I'm afraid his status is not low.
Li You's gaze came over again.
She lowered her eyes and stood awkwardly.
Look at the two people looking at each other as if they were guests.
She turned her head stiffly and tugged on Li You's sleeve.
Li You reacted and saluted Wei Cheng.
"If nothing happens, we'll leave first."
"I heard that Mr. Li's wedding is coming soon. I wonder when it will be? I'll see if I can find time to have a wedding drink then."
Wei Cheng smiled.
The noble girl on the side looked at the two of them curiously, somewhat puzzled.
The two of them looked plainly dressed, so why did Wei Cheng want to drink their wedding wine.
He said he was coming for a wedding banquet.
That nonchalant tone seemed to say that the weather was nice today, and it was so harsh that it made her ears ring.
The luxurious girl's unscrupulous eyes fell on her, making her feel like a light on her back. Shen Yinxiao reluctantly raised the corners of his mouth as a smile, forcing himself not to lose too badly.
The pressed pleats on the newly made satin skirt suddenly became hot, and all the memories she had with Wei Cheng in the past jumped out to remind her at this moment.
How ridiculous she is.
The warmth on my hands faded away, and the coolness was refreshing.
Without waiting for Li You to answer, she raised her hand with a smile, hooked Li You's arm, and leaned slightly closer to the man next to her, looking intimate.
He replied with a smile: "Of course, Li Lang and I will get married on the fifth day of the lunar month. At that time, our husband and wife will welcome you at our humble residence."
Li You breathed a sigh of relief: "Exactly."
Wei Chengyin's hands in his sleeves had already been clenched into fists, and the joints were white from the exertion.
But there was a calm smile on his face, and the words came out from between his teeth one by one, "Okay."
Shen Yinxiao pulled Li You and turned around to leave.
Wang Yuanjun looked at them for a long time, then suddenly turned around and asked Wei Cheng: "Zhongyang, who are they? When did you have such friends?"
"No one." Wei Cheng said casually.
"Irrelevant people, please go in."
The light answer flowed into her ears along the wind, and Shen Yinxiao's back stiffened.
