Upon hearing that his master's wife and the others were in the east of the city, Wei Cunqing no longer had the heart to go picking lotus.
He held Liu Qin's hand and said, "Qin'er, let's not pick lotus seeds today. Let's go pick up Master's wife and the others and take them back to the mansion, okay?"
Liu Qin: ...
From the moment Wei Cunqing saw Aunt Suyun so happy, she knew that today's schedule would definitely be disrupted.
That’s all! Wei Cunqing’s mistress was like his own mother. She couldn’t stop Wei Cunqing from taking his “mother” back home.
"Okay! I'll listen to Seventh Brother." Liu Qin nodded obediently.
Only then did Aunt Suyun notice that there was a woman beside Wei Cunqing, and she looked Liu Qin up and down.
Who is this woman? Could she be Wei Cunqing's princess?
No! She had not heard that Wei Cunqing had married a princess. If Wei Cunqing had married, he would certainly have told his wife.
She can't be Wei Cunqing's princess!
If she is not a princess, then she is a concubine.
Just a concubine, nothing!
Liu Qin noticed Aunt Suyun's unfriendly look, and she looked up at Aunt Suyun.
When their eyes met, Aunt Suyun smiled and nodded.
Liu Qin also smiled back at her.
Aunt Suyun said, "Sir, this girl is..."
Wei Cunqing reacted and introduced them to each other, "Aunt Suyun, this is Qin'er, my...confidante. Qin'er, this is Aunt Suyun, the aunt who has taken care of me since I was a child."
Liu Qin bowed and said, "Greetings to Aunt Suyun."
Aunt Suyun also politely returned the greeting, "Miss Qin'er, you are so polite."
It's good that she's not a princess! She's just a confidante.
Now that Wei Cunqing is the regent of noble status, his princess must naturally be a girl from a respectable family.
She thought the second girl was a good choice! The second girl and Wei Cunqing were childhood sweethearts, and they grew up together. Now that the eldest girl has divorced the Gu family, the second girl must marry a reliable man so that the lady and the eldest girl can be protected.
Wei Cunqing is the best choice! If the second young lady becomes the Regent Princess, then the Madam, the eldest young lady, and the young lady can all legitimately live in the Regent's Palace.
Sitting in the carriage, Wei Cunqing couldn't wait to know how his master's wife and the others were doing.
"Aunt Suyun, why did Master's Wife and the others suddenly come to Kyoto? Why did Senior Sister come too?"
Hearing this, Aunt Suyun sighed heavily, "Young Master, you don't know, Gu Yang...he divorced the eldest daughter! Madam and the eldest daughter were left with nowhere else to go, so they chose to come to Kyoto."
Wei Cunqing slammed the chair in anger, "What? Gu Yang actually dared to divorce Senior Sister? He...how dare he?"
Master Wang was so good to Gu Yang during his lifetime and even passed on all his life's skills to Gu Yang. How could Gu Yang do such an ungrateful thing?
"It's because the eldest daughter gave birth to a daughter. When she gave birth to the youngest daughter, she suffered damage to her body. She has seen many doctors in the past few years, and all of them said that she would never be able to have children again. After the Gu family learned about this, they encouraged Gu Yang to divorce his wife.
In the end, the eldest daughter couldn't stand it anymore and divorced Gu Yang. She brought the young lady with her husband and the second daughter to Kyoto. Aunt Suyun explained the whole story.
Upon hearing this, Wei Cunqing gnashed his teeth in anger.
"How can this be! Gu Yang is so heartless and ungrateful, I will never let him off!"
Seeing him so angry, Aunt Suyun had no choice but to comfort him, "Young Master, don't be too angry. The eldest lady said that Gu Yang is not worth her trouble. If she divorces Gu Yang, she will never look back."
"Gu Yang is too lucky! Senior sister has suffered so much injustice, but she...she doesn't plan to take revenge?" Wei Cunqing couldn't swallow this.
Aunt Suyun sighed softly, "A day of marriage is a hundred days of grace. Miss, I don't want to argue anymore. I hope you won't make it difficult for me. Let's just forget about it."
Liu Qin, who was listening to their conversation, felt complicated.
If she didn't know that Aunt Suyun didn't know her, she would have thought that Aunt Suyun was implying something about her!
What's the saying "once married, a hundred days of grace"? The other party didn't treat her as a husband, so why should she show mercy?
But she is not Ma Yuzhi and cannot be Ma Yuzhi's boss.
She was too lazy to express any opinions, she just acted as an audience, listening to the stories and watching the show.
"I understand! Since senior sister doesn't want to care, we will listen to her." Wei Cunqing didn't want to make things difficult for senior sister. In the future, senior sister would have him to take care of her, so it didn't matter if Gu Yang wasn't there!
The carriage traveled for an hour and finally stopped.
Wei Cunqing got off the carriage first. After helping Aunt Suyun get off the carriage, he came to help Liu Qin.
Liu Qin held his hand and jumped down.
"Seventh brother, just go ahead and do your own thing. Don't worry about me." Liu Qin followed behind Wei Cunqing, not disturbing him from reminiscing about the past with them.
Wei Cunqing squeezed her hand and said, "I'll tell you in detail when we get back home."
Liu Qin nodded, and she followed Wei Cunqing into the house.
When Tan saw Wei Cunqing coming, she was surprised.
"Xiao Qi? Why...Su Yun! Why did you call Xiao Qi here? I asked you to pick lotus seeds, why did you..."
"Master's Wife! Don't blame Aunt Suyun. It was me who met Aunt Suyun in Chengyuan and forced her to bring me here!
"Master's Wife! You came to Kyoto, why didn't you come to see me?" Wei Cunqing was a little angry.
His master and mistress raised him and taught him, and he always regarded them as his "parents"!
Although it was impossible for him to call Ma Qinghua and Tan father and mother given his status, he always regarded them as his "parents" and his closest elders.
But his master's wife was now so distant from him, which made him very unhappy.
"Master's wife doesn't want to cause you trouble, right? You are busy now and Master's wife can't help you, so how can I cause you trouble?" Tan explained.
Wei Cunqing stepped forward and instinctively took Tan's hand, "Master's Wife! You won't cause me any trouble! Pack up and come back with me! How could I let you live here? Master will blame me in his afterlife!"
How could he let his master's wife and the others live in such a shabby place when they came to Kyoto?
They must follow him back to the Regent's Palace. How can he be worthy of his dead master if he makes them suffer?
Tan didn't move. She wanted to say something else when Ma Yuxue came over and said, "Mother! Just listen to Brother, okay? I don't want to live in this shabby place anymore! Brother, let's all move to your mansion, right?"
Wei Cunqing glanced at Ma Yuxue, smiled and nodded, "Yes! Junior sister, quickly pack your things, let's go back home together."
Ma Yuxue smiled widely, "Thank you, Senior Brother! I knew you would not ignore us."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went to her room to clean up.
Tan was still hesitant, "Xiao Qi, are we... disturbing you too much?"
