But he acted as if he didn't hear it. He didn't turn his head or even raise his eyelids.
The old lady looked at Wen Yu and said in an unhappy tone: "Wen Yu, your cousin's wife is talking to you, what are you doing?"
Wen Yu then turned her head slightly, raised her eyes, and looked at Wei calmly: "Grandma, my cousin didn't mention her name, so I don't know she was talking to her granddaughter. Besides, it's rare to hear my cousin praise someone, so my granddaughter doesn't dare to take the lead!"
The old lady glared at her reproachfully. Could it be that this girl was possessed by a ghost?
She didn't know that if she could, Wen Yu would stab Wei's stomach with a knife! Can you talk to her nicely?
Wei looked at Wen Yu: her words were bland and her attitude was distant. She had no intention of chatting with her. She couldn't help but feel jealous. This silly girl had been to the Song family many times before. Didn't she smile and try to please people all day long? !
Oh, what's going on? Dad got promoted, and her temper got worse?
How funny!
Wei smiled at the old lady, turned away pretentiously, ignored Wen Yu, and started chatting with the people around her.
At this time, I heard someone talking outside the door:
"Madame Song, you are getting more and more energetic! Look at your demeanor! When you go out on the street, people will think you are some rich lady! Is it because my lady's generous support has been secretly intercepted by you?!"
Although these words were harsh, the tone was playful, which made Nanny Song very happy: "Fifth Master, you are wronging me. Our old lady is kind and never blames the servants. The food and clothes are all first-class, so I am so elegant! It's not because I am greedy for the old lady! You are wronging me, I don't agree, but I will cry in front of the old lady!"
"Okay! I wronged you... Is this apology enough?"
"Oh! Thank you for the reward, young master!" Judging from the tone, the amount must be considerable! The door curtain was lifted, and a young man stepped in...
That person is coming... Wen Yu looked at the bad fate of her previous life.
It was as if there was a wound on my body that had not healed yet and was pricked by something sharp. I felt pain, fear, and a little pity.
He pulled himself, mixing honey with coptis, rolling round and round, that kind of torture... But he, in his mind, appeared the last time he saw him, with messy lice-infested hair, messy beard, cracked lips, deep sunken eyes... He looked at himself deeply, afraid and in love...
Wen Yu felt a sudden pain in her heart and tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't bother to hide it and looked at him the same way he looked at her...
Song Shang is only 25 years old now, but he has completely controlled the Song family. He has not experienced the hardships that followed, and is full of confidence and high spirits!
A tall and strong figure, thick long eyebrows, and slender single-lidded eyes.
She was wearing a navy blue silk and linen gown and ancient jade pendants on her head and waist.
When he came in, he didn't look at anyone, but bowed deeply and said, "Aunt! I hope you are in good health!" Then he raised his head.
His eyes are particularly long and narrow, with thick eyelashes, and when he smiles you can't see his eyeballs.
Every move he made was filled with an indescribable sense of freedom! When the old lady saw him, her eyes narrowed with a smile, "Ankang?! Humph! You're bullying my people before you even enter the door?!"
"Where is that?! Your mother and nephew are all busy trying to please you!"
"You're always good at teasing me!"
"My cousin is getting married. You look so happy! You look at least eight or nine years younger than the last time I saw you!"
Everyone in the room laughed.
"Listen to this mouth! Your wife is sitting right here, and you're not afraid that she will laugh at you for being unstable!" the old lady said jokingly.
There was a hint of freeze in Song Shang's eyes, but no one could see it. He just laughed casually twice.
But when Wei saw her husband, she was a little surprised: when he came out, he was wearing a dark green suit. Although the material was different from what she was wearing, the color was the same.
Want a special look?
How come he changed into a blue suit when he entered the Wen family? Did he get it dirty from drinking tea? "Aunt, I just saw my cousin in front of me. Hey, he wants to be a groom, but he is too shy to be praised by his nephew!"
"Ha, you're always good at praising people, so you confessed it yourself, right?! Oh! Is your mother okay?!"
"Mother is very good! She just didn't come this time. She said she will apologize to you when you go to Songjiazhuang in a few days!"
"Why are you so reserved? I've prepared some supplements for her. You can bring them back when you go back. Hey, hey, hey! You little girls! Aren't you all looking forward to your cousin's arrival? Why don't you greet him?"
Song Shang's eyes seemed to be sweeping, but in fact he accurately caught "her" and was stunned.
Wow! She really changed? She got taller. Why is she so arrogant? Haha, she is finally a grown-up girl! He was a little excited. He was one step closer to his dream.
The old lady started to complain, "Tsk, why does it look like he's growing a short beard?! It makes him look like an old man. It's not too late to grow a beard when you're twenty-seven or twenty-eight." Her tone was half reproachful, but she could not hide her admiration and love for him.
Wei looked at her husband with a gleam in her eyes, "Old lady, you don't know, he is very particular! His beard is specially taken care of by someone, and that person has to carry it wherever he goes!"
"Grandma, you don't understand. When you go out, you should be careful not to be beardless! Since Song Wu started growing a short beard, he has accomplished a lot!"
"You're talking nonsense again!" the old lady scolded.
Wen Yu stood up and saluted him from a distance, but did not move forward.
Song Shang was dissatisfied and puzzled... Didn't this silly girl like to pester him in the past? Why, now that she's grown up, she's become shy?
I felt jealous and extremely dissatisfied with her.
Suddenly, Wen Yu was also looking at him, and his heart was moved again...
Then, my heart sank again. What's that expression on her face?!
Wen Yu looked at him with a silent, sad, and somewhat compassionate look...
What happened? When I wanted to take a closer look, Wen Yu had already turned her head.
Song Shang was a little flustered. It seemed that there was something I didn't know. I would check it carefully later.
Wen Jiao called out from the side: "Cousin, what new things did you bring us?"
"Hmph, you only know how to ask your cousin for new things! You want a gift without any needlework to honor your cousin? No!" Song Shang looked unhappy.
"Ah! Cousin..." Wen Su stamped her feet anxiously. Her needlework skills were the worst and she couldn't show them off at all.
Everyone in the room laughed.
Although Wen Huan was smiling on the surface, he actually looked down on Song Wu in his heart.
Because of Song Wu, he is still a commoner.
He has some connections, knows how to do business, and makes a lot of money. Just like this cousin's wife, no matter how outstanding her clothes are, what is her identity?
The women in this room, first of all, are my mother, then the old lady, and myself...
Suddenly, she thought of Wen Yu again, and her heart sank.
Don’t underestimate the word “eldest son”, there is a big difference between them!
That damn girl was her father's first wife and eldest daughter, and her status was two levels higher than hers. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't keep this person. She was distracted...
Song Shang had already had the boxes brought in, and the girls started chattering and laughing.
"One for each person, no one will be left out, so don't be in a hurry!" Wei smiled, but her expression involuntarily carried some arrogance.
The old lady saw this and felt a little annoyed, but she didn't show it.
The girls were indeed happy. One reason was that the things Song Shang gave them were really good, and they could show off in front of their girlfriends for a long time! Another reason was that their grandmother treated their fifth cousin more highly than her own grandson. They were not shy with Song Shang, and their grandmother was particularly happy, so everyone tried their best to show off.
Wen Yu also understood that in the past, she would try to get close to her cousin and show off to please her grandmother. The good things she got would be taken away by her sisters afterwards. As for the rest, she had two good friends who would think of her when they had good things, so they regarded it as a return gift.
But today, she sat there, immersed in her own emotions, and did not come forward.
Song Shang had been keeping an eye on her, watching her sitting there motionless. What on earth was going on? He was uneasy and anxious. He wanted to get close to her, and he couldn't help it. He took a box in his own hand and walked over...
"Cousin Ayu..." He didn't even notice that his expression and voice sounded so mean...
