Chapter 174 Resentment
Wei Qingyan was willing to go to his hometown to visit his grandmother, and Wei Shiran was naturally happy to see it happen.
I took her aside and talked about a lot of my grandmother's preferences.
Wei Qingyan memorized them all carefully.
After talking about her grandmother, Wei Shiran said, "I have another piece of good news to share with you. My sister-in-law is pregnant."
My younger brother’s wife is Qin, the wife of Gong Minglou, the second master of the Gong family.
She held up two fingers and said, “Twins, my sister-in-law is so happy, and my sister is happy too.
It’s a bit funny to say, but when I was pregnant with Gong Jin, I also fantasized about having twins.
I heard that having twins is a family trait. Since your father has you and Wanyi, I hope to inherit his good fortune.
Unfortunately, it didn’t happen.
But maybe you'll get married and have twins in the future."
Wei Qingyan looked at his smiling sister and thought about his own life experience. He felt complicated and asked casually, "If I wasn't a child of the Wei family, would you still recognize me?"
"Why are you asking this suddenly?"
Wei Shiran was surprised, then smiled and said, "Whether you are of the Wei family's blood or not, you grew up in the Wei family, so call father father.
You are worthy of your father's arrangements for you before he died in battle, and you are worthy of me recognizing you as my sister and treating you well.
Is it because your wedding is approaching and you are too nervous that you have all these wild thoughts?
Don’t say such nonsense in the future.”
When she got married, she was also nervous and thought about a lot of messy things, and Wei Qingyan was the same as her.
She glanced outside and saw no one was around, so she approached Wei Qingyan and continued talking about the child, "Your brother-in-law guessed that you gave the child from Prince Yu's Mansion to your sister-in-law?
Aren’t those two boys?”
Her sister-in-law told her that after her father-in-law resolved his grudge, she dreamed that her parents-in-law gave her a boy, and Qingyan gave her another one.
The topic was changed and Wei Qingyan did not mention it again.
She couldn't tell her brother-in-law about her pregnancy, but she didn't have to worry about telling her elder sister. So she told Gong Mingcheng out of kindness that she wanted to bury Shi Chengze in the Gong family's ancestral land.
Then she saw Shi Chengze enter Qin's belly, and Qin gave birth to a pair of boys.
Wei Shiran was stunned when she heard this.
She always thought her sister was amazing, and she had no doubt that Wei Qingyan could see such a scene.
Putting his hands together, he said, "Thank God, Qingyan, you have done a great deed. With these two sons, my sister-in-law can be said to have found some comfort and will not be sad about the early death of our eldest son.
Prince Yu can now experience the days of being loved by his father and mother."
The eldest sister did not despise Shi Chengze for being a playboy, and she was happy for Shi Chengze and Qin.
Wei Qingyan also raised the corner of his lips, "Brother-in-law really tells you everything."
"We are husband and wife."
Wei Shiran's eyes turned, and she took the opportunity to teach her sister the way of getting along with her husband and wife, "A family needs two people to run it together.
When you get married in the future, don't just think of Prince Rong as the prince. Apart from that, he is also your husband and your partner.
Men are busy outside during the day and women are busy at home. At night, the couple lies in bed and chats, which can not only strengthen their relationship but also be a way to relax.
Although the woman is the homemaker, you have to let her participate in household matters and children's affairs. Only when she is committed will she have more feelings and a sense of belonging to the family.
Similarly, a woman does not have to get involved in a man’s extramarital affairs, but she should understand some of them and give him some advice when necessary.
Men enjoy the sense of accomplishment of protecting women, and they also hope that when they are tired, there will be someone to rely on and give them a chance to breathe, or they hope that there will be someone who can see the same scenery as them and then talk about it.
You have always been excellent, so I am not worried that you can't walk side by side with him. I am just worried that you are used to being independent and will not be able to adapt to being a wife in such a short time if you get married suddenly."
She held Wei Qingyan's hand and said, "Sister, you carried too much in the past and had to be at the forefront of everything. Now, you can properly rely on your husband and the people around you and enjoy your life now.
My father probably hopes for the same.”
Wei Qingyan understood what her elder sister meant and nodded obediently, "Thank you, elder sister."
Apart from Wei Shiran, no one else could say these words to Wei Qingyan.
There are only a few married women that Wei Qingyan is close to.
Yan Lan divorced, and Wei Wanyi was about to divorce.
Lan Shu was raised by her father and brother, and no one taught her how to get along with her husband.
Being a concubine of the crown prince was different from being an ordinary couple, and she ended up getting divorced and expelled from the palace.
So, when she left the palace that night and returned to Anyuan Marquis Mansion, she learned what Wei Shiran had said to her daughter and said gratefully, "Your elder sister is so thoughtful. Mother must thank her very much."
Lan Shu's gratitude was very direct.
The Sword-Forging Villa has no shortage of money, nor of weapons.
The next day, two carriages were parked at the gate of Gong Mansion.
Three boxes were filled with jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and silk. Another long box of weapons was filled with spears, swords, whips, broken blades, etc.
Although the Sword-Forging Villa is secluded from the world, it also has secret agents in the capital. After receiving Lan Shu's order, the manager brought the things to the villa.
Wei Shiran learned that the gift was sent by Lan Shu because she was grateful for her kindness to Wei Qingyan.
I was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
It is natural for her to be kind to her sister, and there is no need for Lan Shu to give her so many thank-you gifts.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart that Lan Shu was really good to Qingyan.
She was also happy for Wei Qingyan. Madam Wei did not give Qingyan the motherly love, but Lan Shu made up for it.
Returning the gift made him seem estranged from Lan Shu, after all, Lan Shu was Wei Qingyan's person.
But she couldn't take other people's things for free, so she decided to add three more loads to Wei Qingyan's dowry.
When he was taking inventory of items in the warehouse with his men, he heard the maid from the second house come hurriedly to report that Qin's father had passed away.
Wei Shiran hurriedly dropped what she was doing and rushed to the second room, fearing that Qin would have a miscarriage after hearing the bad news.
When Wei Qingyan learned the news, he was just seeing Xiao Zhian off.
She returned the jade pendant, conveying the willingness of the Wei Dynasty to cooperate with him in finding Prince Feng Zhao.
Regardless of whether the person who took away Prince Feng Zhao was from the Wei Dynasty or not, Feng Zhao could not vent his anger on the Wei Dynasty court, and Xiao Zhian readily agreed.
Wei Qingyan remembered that the emperor had said that when Emperor Feng Zhao was still the crown prince, he had come to Wei. Wei Qingyan asked Xiao Zhian to write a letter to ask Empress Feng Zhao.
When Emperor Feng Zhao came to the capital, did he have any grudges against anyone?
There must be a reason why the man in black took Prince Feng Zhao away. It is very likely that he did it to seek revenge.
Xiao Zhian was like a headless fly, planning to check the homes of the powerful and wealthy in the capital one by one. When he heard the news, he felt that it was a clue, so he hurriedly said goodbye and went back to write a letter to Empress Feng Zhao.
Wei Qingyan sent him to the front yard, where he saw Gong Jin leaving with the winter melon. Upon asking, he learned about Qin's father.
When I was resolving the grudge with the Gong family, I heard that Qin's father was seriously ill. Now I hear this news, I am not surprised.
He only told Gong Jin and Donggua to be careful on their way back and then let the matter go.
In the next few days, Shi Yu was busy investigating the spies in the palace, while Wei Qingyan went to Dajue Temple to find out about Shi Yu's life experience.
Unexpectedly, before she had any clue, the pregnant Qin came to her.
When Qin saw her, she wanted to kneel down and said, "Miss Chang, please save my family. My father must have a grudge after his death. The Qin family already has one dead and one sick."
