She didn't speak, so the old women around her naturally gave her a polite response.
"Young Madam, there's no need to be envious. Your hair is countless times better than Madam's."
"Yes, yes, young madam, you don't know, there are many women in Loucheng who envy you."
Hearing these flattering words, Wei Wei couldn't help but smile.
However, having never served anyone before, her hands were weak, and somehow the comb tilted to the side, embedding itself deeply into Madam Meng's scalp.
It looks extremely painful.
"Oh! Mother, are you in pain? Your daughter-in-law didn't mean it!"
She hurriedly stood up, threw down the comb, and went to check.
Madam Meng, however, seemed completely oblivious to the pain. Although she had woken up, she did not cry out. Instead, she immediately backed away when she saw her approaching.
She had no choice but to stop.
"Granny Zhang, go and check on Mother's head. If it's injured, you should apply some medicine."
"My mother was still wary of me, so I didn't try to scare her anymore and went out first."
Granny Zhang hurriedly agreed and rushed forward to check.
And Wei Wei did indeed leave.
Xiao Yue'er, who had been waiting outside the door, followed her for a while before asking in a low voice, "Miss, has Madam really gone mad?"
Wei Wei frowned, but dared not make a guarantee.
"I used to be arrogant and couldn't stand the slightest grievance."
"Now you can do whatever you want with her, and she doesn't even know how to get angry."
"She looks crazy, but who knows if she's faking it? After all, once she recovers, she'll inevitably be sent to the authorities."
“After being away for a few days, she has lost her innocence. If she is then sent to the authorities on suspicion of murdering her husband, she will never be able to see anyone again for the rest of her life.”
Wei Wei raised her hand and habitually pressed her throbbing head, deciding to put the matter aside for now.
——
The next morning, she received a message that her parents were coming over.
A lot has happened in the past two days, and Wei's parents are not unaware of it, but they were persuaded to stop by the people she sent.
“When you two arrive, things will only get more complicated. Don’t worry, I know how to handle your daughter.”
They trusted their daughter and were genuinely afraid of doing more harm than good.
They simply sent someone to keep an eye on things.
Now that things were almost settled, and they heard that Madam Meng had returned home, they could no longer hold back.
Wei Wei knew their feelings. When she rushed to see them, she found that Wei Xin had also come along.
As the talents entered the hall, Wei Xin greeted them.
Although he was only a little over twelve years old, he was already not much shorter than Wei Wei.
Looking at her with concern, he said, "Sister, you've lost so much weight? Is it because you can't eat anything?"
Wei Wei happily patted his head, but he quickly dodged away, his tone slightly reproachful: "I'm an adult now, why do you still treat me like a child?"
These words made her laugh, and Wei's parents behind her also laughed.
"What a precocious little devil!"
The family chatted and laughed, and then ate together.
Then he took his leave and went back.
Wei Xin, who was walking at the back, suddenly turned around and waited until her parents were out of sight before asking in a low voice, "Sister, have you seen Brother Wang? What do you think of him?"
Wei Wei raised an eyebrow: "You're still hanging out with him?"
Wei Xin looked around nervously, afraid of being scolded again.
There was no lesson learned, but I did get a light pat on the head, followed by Wei Wei's disapproving voice.
"Would someone like him get along with a greenhorn like you?"
"You really have a big heart."
Wei Xin scratched his head and chuckled, "Brother Wang is so good to me, he even invited me to his house for a meal."
Wei Wei's eyes flickered: "You said last time that he lives in Osmanthus Lane, right?"
"Yes."
Wei Xin nodded: "It's a small courtyard with two sections, and there's only one old servant in the house."
He shook Wei Wei's hand excitedly: "Brother Wang can cook too. His roasted pigeon is delicious."
"Sister, she is definitely not the kind of person with ill intentions that you describe!"
Wei Wei laughed when she heard his words, her tone helpless: "How old are you? What do you know?"
Wei Xin puffed out her chest, quite certain: "How could I not know? I know everything, sister. Don't underestimate me. I even know what you're thinking right now."
Wei Wei glanced at him sideways: "You know what I'm thinking? Then tell me."
"I know you don't hate Brother Wang now."
He said with absolute certainty, "Such a good person, no one could bear to dislike him!"
"You're quite the clever one! And you even have such an uncanny ability to predict the future?"
Wei Wei said, "Go back! Parents have already gone far away!"
When Wei Xin saw that her older sister didn't deny it, her eyes lit up with immense joy: "Sister, you really don't dislike him? That's wonderful!"
"Brother Wang is truly amazing!"
How did this get dragged into this again? Could it be that this guy surnamed Wang deliberately made him ask that question?
Wei Wei's face immediately darkened, and the smile vanished from her eyes: "You're so obedient to him, even coming to your sister to test the waters. Wei Xin, don't forget, I'm your own sister!"
Seeing that the person in front of her was angry, Wei Xin immediately became nervous: "Sister, don't misunderstand, it was me who wanted to make a bet with Brother Wang!"
“Yesterday he sent me a lot of little trinkets, and of course I went to thank him. Then, without realizing it, we started talking about you.”
