When Wang Xipei entered the house, she saw her sister Wang Lingyi and brother-in-law welcoming them.
Wang Lingyi smiled and said, "Father and Mother are in there. They were anxious to come out, but it was against etiquette, so I persuaded them to stay. My brother and sister-in-law are accompanying them."
Wang Xipei asked in surprise, "The whole family is here?"
Wang Lingyi nodded and said, "Jiang Tao arranged for us to send people to each household to ask questions, so of course we are willing to come.
We thought you guys would have to settle down and rest first, so we'd have to wait until tomorrow. But Jiang Tao actually sent a car to pick us up, which made us so happy."
When they entered, they saw two tables, one large and one small, set up in the living room. Wang Xipei smiled brightly when she saw her parents, brother and sister-in-law. Her eldest brother, Wang Suwen, said cheerfully, "You look good, and you've gained some weight. You used to be so skinny..."
Before she could finish her words, her mother glared at her. Shen Zhaoshu pulled Wang Xipei to sit in front of her and looked her up and down.
Wang Xipei smiled and said, "Mother, I'm fine and sound. If you keep looking at me like this, even if I have a thick skin, I'll be exposed."
The little grandson Jiang Guyuan came over to kowtow to his grandparents. When Shen Zhaoshu saw him, she quickly hugged him in her arms, and the whole family laughed and talked happily.
Sitting at the small table were children. The eldest son of the eldest brother Wang Suwen was almost eight years old, and the second son was six years old. In order to have a daughter, Zhao Xinran had a third baby, but it was still a boy.
He was a little depressed, but the third child was only four years old, but he was very friendly and likable. Now he took the initiative to take the three-year-old Jiang Guyuan to sit at the small table.
After Wang Lingyi was forced to have an abortion due to poisoning, she searched for the Ghost Valley Strange Doctor for a long time. She did not dare to have a child until the poison was detoxified. It was not until Wang Xipei ended her unhappy five-year marriage and went to southern Yunnan to see Luo Yunyan that she accidentally found the Ghost Valley Strange Doctor.
After she detoxified, she rested for a while before having a child, so Wang Lingyi's son was only four years old. The three younger ones were about the same age and ate at the same table. When they were in a good mood, they hugged each other, but they started fighting again. When their two older brothers, aged eight and six, saw this, they had to sit in the middle, and things got better.
Shen Zhaoshu raised her head and glanced at the small table, her smile uncontrollably hidden. The only regret... was all because of the boy.
Xuanyuan Huaiyu stood outside for too long. He seemed to be able to see her smile and her curved eyes; he seemed to be able to hear her voice, which was cute and cheerful in her innocent voice.
The chief guard came over and advised: "Master, the wind is strong, let's go back."
Xuanyuan Huaiyu went to the restaurant and booked it for the whole night. He didn't drink, but he just didn't want to go back to the lonely palace. He wanted to stay in a lively place so that he wouldn't feel so lonely.
What was he doing back in the palace? Xi Pei used to be in that courtyard, but now she was sitting behind the candles without any good temper.
His eyes were always on her, sometimes she was checking the accounts; sometimes she was replying to the village manager, writing notes; on the first night after helping with Ren Jiayu's funeral, she came back late at night, trying to hold on to sleep while sewing thick knee pads under the lamp... She would probably have to hold on again tomorrow...
But he didn't want to show that he cared at the time. Ren Jiayu was a new widow, and Wang Xipei immediately asked for a divorce. He thought she was annoying and hateful... In fact, he just didn't want her to leave...
As the night deepened, the number of diners gradually dwindled. Xuanyuan Huaiyu had someone shout at the restaurant entrance, "Congratulations to Wang Hanyi on her return to Beijing! The restaurant is open all night!"
Each guest will receive three pounds of wine, a plate of braised meat, and four cold dishes. They cannot be taken away and will be replenished after the meal!
Sure enough, more and more people came.
He had left her on their wedding night, and later wanted to marry her as his wife. At that time, he had someone carefully crafted a phoenix crown and veil.
But there is no way for her to put on makeup for him again in this life.
I really want to see her. I'll bring sixteen pieces of repaired jewelry to her house tomorrow. This is just an excuse. Can I meet her?
Forget it, just send the things over. She will be unhappy when she sees me.
That phoenix coronet and shawl is so exquisite and beautiful, I'll give it to her as well, as a belated wedding gift... I think she'll like it... As long as she's willing to accept it...
He sat there all night, and early the next morning, when it was dawn, he hurried back home to wash, change his clothes, and go on duty.
Before leaving, she instructed the housekeeper to deliver the repaired jewelry and the phoenix crown and robe. "If there's anything, report back immediately."
Everyone on duty that day was a little absent-minded. The housekeeper was someone Wang Xipei had a good relationship with when she was in the mansion, so she would always give him some face.
Until the butler came and said, "Master, I have received the things."
Xuanyuan Huaiyu was overjoyed: "Does she like it? Is she happy?"
The housekeeper said, "Master, Miss Wang said she thanked His Highness. Since His Highness gave her a wedding gift, these two boxes should be considered as wedding candy and cakes, and are for His Highness."
This was probably the bitterest candy Xuanyuan Huaiyu had ever tasted, her wedding candy.
Ye Zhou and Tang Miao's daughter Ye Qiu also sat there all night last night.
She knew that the Queen was looking for a female companion for the Fifth Prince. Since she couldn't marry He Qing, it didn't matter who she married.
