Chapter 378: The eldest sister-in-law supports the family (4)
"Miss, get up." Yue'er called Shi Yi in a low voice several times but Shi Yi didn't wake up. She boldly put the wrung wet towel on her neck.
It was already noon. If she didn't get up, the second young master of the Wei family who was waiting at the door to invite her in would have no chance of eating.
"Good Yue'er, let me sleep a little longer. I'm really too sleepy." Shi Yi pushed the wet towel away from her neck and covered her head with it, pretending to be an ostrich.
She had been kneeling in the hall for two days and two nights and fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed last night. She didn't even have time to remove the makeup on her face.
"Miss..." The person wrapped in the quilt on the bed ignored her. She changed the words, "Madam, if you don't get up, someone will starve to death."
Yue'er was really angry.
The one at the door couldn't be coaxed away, and the one on the bed couldn't be called up. They were all masters, and she was the only little maid. What could she do?
"Good Yue'er, don't be angry, I'll just get up." Shi Yi rarely saw Yue'er angry, even if she really couldn't bear to leave the warm and comfortable big bed, she moved out heroically.
Yue'er looked at her young lady with red eyes, tears rolled in her eyes and she wanted to say something but was suppressed. What she actually wanted to say was that her son-in-law got up early in the morning to practice calligraphy in the study. The son-in-law didn't seem to care about her young lady at all, and her young lady was stupid enough not to fight for herself.
Shi Yi wanted to divert her attention, so he asked, "Where did the son-in-law go?"
"Miss, you should wash up quickly. The second young master is still waiting at the door!" Yue'er didn't intend to undermine her young lady's self-confidence on the second day of her wedding. She swallowed her tears and pushed her to the dressing table.
When Shi Yi sat down, he took a special look at the bronze mirror. In the bronze mirror, the woman's face was mottled, one piece was white and the other piece was flesh-colored, which made people feel uncomfortable. She thought that she must have rubbed the powder on the wedding quilt when she was sleeping at night, so she didn't care much. Yue'er looked carefully, and it was not a mark left by rubbing, otherwise the dark circles would not be so clear. Obviously, this was caused by improper makeup removal. But she did not think much about it, and just thought that her young lady was lazy and fooled around, so she did not mention it.
Shi Yi dressed up again and walked out of the door, already having the momentum of the mistress of the Wei family.
At the door, stood a nine-year-old boy. His face was full of collagen, and his white and chubby face made people want to rub it. But he also had a pair of peach blossom eyes that only adult men have, and his hair was upright with a light brown jade crown. He was wearing a loose dark gray ill-fitting robe, like a child who stole adult clothes, and looked very weird and out of place.
Wei introduced the person and finally came out. He hurriedly bowed and asked, "Sister-in-law, did you sleep well yesterday?"
"I'm sorry to bother you, second brother. Sister-in-law sleeps very well. But you, are you hungry?" Shi Yi looked at him carefully again, and finally found out where the sense of incongruity came from.
In fact, although Wei Yin is young, his white and chubby face already has the traces of the handsome man of the Wei family, and his eyes even have the romantic temperament of the Wei family. But he attracted the attention of others with ill-fitting clothes and weird color matching, which diverted the attention invisibly.
"Wei Yin is not hungry. When my sister-in-law gets up, Wei Yin will wait until then. Sister Yue'er doesn't have to be so anxious." Suddenly being cared for, Wei Yin's right ear turned red. He lowered his head and looked at his toes, uttering words half a sentence. People who are not familiar with him will definitely think that he has no gentleman's demeanor when they see him like this. In fact, those people are also demanding. He is just a nine-year-old child. No matter how mature he is, his psychology is different from that of an adult.
Yue'er is very unhappy now. It seems that she was wrong to wake up the young lady. Bah. If she hadn't seen him standing at the door pitifully and not daring to move, she would not have been soft-hearted.
"If I don't come out all day today, will you stand at the door and wait for me all day without eating?" Shi Yi twisted the tassels on his sleeves and looked at him leisurely.
Wei Yin raised his head to reveal his chubby face, but replied in a mature tone: "Of course. The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. You must come early."
"Let's go to eat." Shi Yi gave Yue'er a look to let her follow, and took Wei Yin's hand and walked to the dining room.
Speaking of which, although the second young master of the Wei family is young, he is stubborn. This is well known to the world in the original owner's memory. Otherwise, there would not be the scene later where he insisted on clearing the grievances of the Wei family and endured thousands of tortures in front of the drum but did not yield. So, she believed what he said 100%. Who made her the highest status among all the women in this family?
Thinking about it carefully, he developed such a temperament since he was a child, which may also be related to the fact that there is no proper hostess in the Wei Mansion. Wei Yang's original wife was a commoner woman who died soon after giving birth to Wei Yang. In order to take care of Wei Yang and not wanting to be involved in the complicated in-law relationship in the court, he took a singer as a concubine. However, the singer died only three years after giving birth to Wei Yin. Wei Yang never remarried and raised his two sons himself. Wei Yang valued his legitimate son. Although Wei Yang was in poor health, he seriously trained him as his future successor, so he naturally spent more time with Wei Yang. Accordingly, he naturally ignored his illegitimate son Wei Yin. The education of Wei Yin was more inclined to respect his elder brother and behave in a proper and polite manner.
Wei Yin had never had contact with other women except his mother. Now that Shi Yi held his hand, his face was red and almost bleeding. He said in a mosquito-like voice: "Sister-in-law, there is a difference between men and women."
"The elder sister-in-law is like a mother." Shi Yi looked dignified, but in fact he held his hand tighter in a mischievous way.
Yue'er, who was following behind the two of them, looked at the blush on Wei Yin's fair face and couldn't help laughing softly.
Wei Yin secretly glanced at Shi Yi and found that she was also laughing.
Although he was not very old, he knew in his heart that the Wei family was not the same as before. His sister-in-law was willing to marry into the family, so her character must be good. So, if this could make her happier, then it would be fine.
After walking through the corridor and turning a corner, it was the dining room. There were many maids and servants serving in the dining room, which was always indecent for people to see, so Shi Yi let go of his hand.
Wei Yin was walking slowly, and he was a little uncomfortable with his hands being empty all of a sudden, so he subconsciously looked up at her.
"Good boy, after dinner, you can accompany your eldest sister-in-law for a walk in the mansion." Shi Yi was amused by his confused eyes and reached out to scratch his nose. Her calm facial features became relaxed, and her eyes were gentle, without any trace of the "quiet" look that was said to be outside. For a moment, Yue Er and Wei Yang who was coming out were both stunned.
