Chapter 2: Instigation
Jade was relieved to go out to invite Wei An, but she heard the lark outside lifting the curtain and laughing: "Old lady, second lady and third lady, the county lord is here." ”
The expression on Mrs. Wei's face finally eased a little, and even the second and third ladies also had some spirits, and Mrs. Ping'an Hou couldn't help but sigh when she saw it in her eyes.
Back then, I never thought that this Shouning county lord would have such a day, and he would have such a face in the mansion, almost to the point where everyone was the backbone.
Guardan has already entered the door, she is wearing a rare bright color today, a goose-yellow jacket, and a frost-white pleated skirt tied underneath, which makes her look beautiful and refined.
Even Mrs. Ping'an Hou couldn't help but light up her eyes, and smiled at Mrs. Wei: "Every time I see the county lord at first glance, I always feel that my eyes are shaking, she dresses too low-key on weekdays, but even then, people dare not force their eyes, so a little dressing up is really dizzying." ”
The nature of this compliment is too obvious, Mrs. Wei smiled and didn't answer, stretched out her hand and called Wei An to her, and waited until Wei An saluted Mrs. Ping'an Hou, and then said to the end of what Mrs. Ping'an Hou said about Wei Yangqing before: "It's all your own people, and you don't have to hide it, I have already called Mama Hua to call Lin Hai." It's just that although I don't believe that Lao Wu will be so disobedient and ignorant, I don't dare to guarantee that he really didn't do it, if he really did such a thing....."
It's too much to bury someone's daughter like this before the steproom enters the door, and to abuse people's faces so badly.
Mrs. Wei really likes Miss Xu Si and doesn't want her to be wronged, and she won't feel that Wei Yangqing is her own son and that everything he does is right.
Wei An was a little surprised, recently Wei Yangqing was not the same as before at all, not to mention that even in the past, Wei Yangqing was not a lustful person.
His rare infatuation has been in love with the county lord of Changning for many years.
She thought about it and asked Mrs. Ping'anhou: "I wonder if Mrs. can tell me, who said this?" ”
Mrs. Ping'an Hou knew that Wei An's words were largely on behalf of Mrs. Wei, so she didn't dare to delay, and told the truth about the matter: "It was Master Hou who listened to what his subordinates said...."
In other words, the source is not known.
Wei An frowned slightly, if those people told Ping'an Hou about this matter as a thing, then there must be a basis, Wei Yangqing must have been to those places at least.
And why did these people tell Ping'an Hou?
It's probably because I want to ruin this marriage.
Wei An was thoughtful, and waited until Lin Hai came before retracting his gaze.
Lin Hai knelt down outside through the screen, and Mrs. Wei didn't tell him to get up, and waited until he finished greeting him before asking him: "Where have the five old men gone out recently?" Did You Know? ”
Lin Hai is the big housekeeper, although he doesn't have to go out in person, but he has a rough idea of where the masters of the family go, after all, the people who follow him want to get things, and they have to report it.
He was a little surprised, obviously knowing that Mrs. Wei asked what was going on, so he thought about it seriously for a while, and replied cautiously: "Back to the old lady, the fifth master has recently come back from the office, and sometimes he doesn't come home to eat, but he goes out to socialize, but the fifth master has been using it no differently recently, and he has never asked for two .....taels of silver at home."
In other words, there is nothing wrong with Wei Yangqing.
Old Mrs. Wei snorted, and then said, "Just now, Mama Hua came back and said that the fifth master is not in the mansion now?" Isn't he Mu Xiu today? You go and find out, see where he goes, and come back and report it. ”
Lin Hai didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly nodded and agreed.
Mrs. Ping'an Hou was even more uneasy: "Old lady, in fact, there is no need to make such a big fanfare.....
She has no intention of not wanting this marriage, not to mention utilitarian or utilitarian thoughts, even if it is for Miss Xu Si herself, this family affair is also excellent.
The reason why she mentioned this matter when she came over was also because she wanted to test the attitude of Mrs. Wei, in her opinion, it didn't matter so much according to the man.
Anyway, if you get married, as long as you respect each other, it is Mrs. Wei who can really make the decisions.
But now that Mrs. Wei has made such a big fuss, she is a little uneasy, for fear that this matter will affect this family business.
Wei An didn't speak, and waited until Mrs. Wei shook her head coldly before saying, "I also think that this matter can't be ended so easily." ”
Mrs. Ping'an Hou looked at her with some surprise, and shook her head in embarrassment before reacting: "County Lord, you are still young and don't know about these things.....
Where is there a husband and wife who don't stumble? Where is there no time? Men are all flowery. As long as the big face is passable, that's it.
Where is there a cat that doesn't steal?
Guard is still too young, there is no room for sand in his eyes, and he naively thinks that the men in this world are principled and will not be contaminated with those dust.
Wei An knew what Mrs. Ping'an Hou was worried about, and she said softly: "Madam, I know what you mean, don't worry, I just think that there is another article on this matter." ”
Another article?
Mrs. Ping'an Hou didn't react for a while, and paused slightly before asking, "What article?" ”
Wei An didn't answer, just looked at Mrs. Wei: "Old lady, my father is not a person who is obsessed with women's pleasures, for so many years, he may be soft-hearted and indecisive, but in terms of right and wrong, he is very clear, at this time, his marriage is close at hand, how could he do such a thing?" And those who said this to the Ping'an Marquis Mansion are also a little strange, since they know, why is it specious? Leaving room for imagination, obviously stirring up right and wrong, but not making it clear, so that people can't grasp the handle, and it's not easy to interrogate? If Mrs. Hou didn't come to ask today, she would just have a problem in her heart....."
Wei An paused, and saw that Mrs. Wei and the second lady and the third lady all had an understanding, so he did not shy away from saying: "I'm afraid that someone took the opportunity to make trouble, and the thief shouted to catch the thief, and directed this farce, which was specially shown to the Ping'an Marquis Mansion, and then wanted to fake the show." Otherwise, let's see if this complaint has anything to do with my father's recent visits to those places. ”
The meaning of Wei An's words is that someone deliberately led Wei Yangqing to that kind of place, and then turned around and pretended to be righteous to tell the Ping'an Hou Mansion, taking the opportunity to provoke the relationship between the Ping'an Hou Mansion and the Dingbei Hou Mansion?
Old Lady Wei frowned.
Mrs. Ping'an Hou was also a little shocked and incredulous: "This ..... Could it be that at this juncture, there are still people who dare to pluck the feathers on the tiger and provoke it? ”
The Wei family is hot now, who would dare to come up and stir up trouble at this time?
