Wei Zhizhi was struck by lightning.
She didn't understand why she was so unpopular.
Being beaten and warned by her, it must be the fault of those people.
Tan Jiang sighed: "It seems that the young master of the Xiao family is still patient."
"Last time he was beaten black and blue, he was still willing to play with our girl."
Hearing this, the frustrated Wei Zhizhi straightened up.
But she retorted.
"I said it wasn't a beating."
"I just accidentally knocked over a box of pearls given by Aunt Shen. Xiao Lin slipped and fell."
"I am the elder sister after all. Seeing that he was hurt, I had to help him up."
Yu Tingwan: "Yes, but you fell too. And you hit someone."
"He was fine, but you broke his arm when you hit him, so he has to stay on the couch for half a month."
Wei Zhizhi said: "I... I feel guilty. Xiao Lin insisted on asking me to take care of him until he got better, and I agreed without saying a word." Yu
Tingwan looked at her daughter and felt very worried.
"You took care of him and made him lie in bed for another half a month."
Xiao Huaiyan felt that his son had asked for it.
Yu Tingwan: "If it were someone else, he would never be able to enter the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion."
"I'll enter today!"
"Aunt Shen even invited me to dinner."
Wei Zhizhi's pride didn't last long.
"But Xiao Lin kicked me out."
Yu Tingwan was surprised: "Are you angry with him?"
No.
Wei Zhizhi: "There are relatives visiting his house. A cousin came from Jiangnan. The whole family came to settle down. Her father will work in the Ministry of Households in the future."
Although she is young, she can explain things very clearly.
In a baby voice.
"That girl is one year older than me. She is not as sensible as me, and she is also very naughty. I think she was spoiled by her family and has not seen much of the world, so she thinks the Ministry of Households is a big official."
Yu Tingwan: ...
It's quite big.
The main reason is that your father and grandfather are older.
"I think Aunt Shen and the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery don't like them very much, but they are related to each other, so they have to put on a show."
She told Yu Tingwan.
"That person is such a jerk. She pushed me in private and didn't allow Brother Lin to call me sister. She said that he was her brother. She told me not to occupy the magpie's nest."
"I was pushed to the ground."
Wei Zhizhi: "I have never seen anyone dare to climb over my head. She succeeded in arousing my interest."
Yu Tingwan: ...
Wei Zhizhi: "But Xiao Lin is unhappy."
Xiao Lin naturally protects Wei Zhizhi.
But Wei Zhizhi also thinks that the girl is right.
She has a brother, so it doesn't matter whether Xiao Lin calls him or not.
"I recognized her."
"Xiao Lin is angry that I gave him to someone else."
Just kidding, how can Wei Zhizhi coax others except Wei Zhao?
"I just scare him. If he quarrels again, I will be his wife."
Wei Zhizhi is very distressed: "He was so scared that he drove me out and scolded me for flirting with him."
Yu Tingwan: ...
You are not wronged at all.
She waited for Wei Zhizhi to finish eating and for Heng Ge'er, who was sleeping in the house, to wake up before she took the snacks prepared by Hui Niang and got on the carriage back home.
On the way, Yu Tingwan glanced at the sky. She came up with an idea and asked Shunzi to change lanes.
Looking at the road, that direction was the Lu family.
Wei Zhizhi, who was playing with Heng Ge'er, became excited.
"Mother, are we going to see my aunt?"
The aunt she was talking about was Gu Wu, who was in confinement.
Gu Wu married the eldest son of the Lu family three years ago with the help of Gu Fuju.
Yu Tingwan still remembers Shen Zhiyi sighing in front of her.
- "Why is it the Lu family? Why not He Xuran!"
- "No, Gu Wu and the eldest son of the Lu family fell in love with each other at first sight? What's wrong with He Xuran?"
- "Oh, he was so happy as if he was marrying a daughter, and said that he, as an uncle, would add makeup to Gu Wu."
Really, she is very persistent.
——"Although Gu Wu only regards He Xuran as an uncle, and He Xuran also regards her as a junior, it is impossible for them to have a love between men and women. But can't the two of them satisfy me and become a couple?"
In this matter, Ning Yunling became the victim in the end.
In addition to praising the two brothers-in-law of the Lu family, he also had to please Gu Wu.
Gu Wu was a person who didn't take anyone else seriously except Yu Tingwan.
Yu Tingwan pulled out the hand that Heng Ge'er had put in her mouth and sucked.
"It's late, go to your aunt tomorrow."
She just passed by the Lu family to buy snacks.
After buying snacks, Yu Tingwan did not return home.
The carriage went to Huaqing Academy.
It was getting dark, and the afterglow of the sunset was dim.
Wei Zhao was dressed in casual clothes, his eyebrows and eyes were cold and sharp, and he walked like a breeze among the pines.
The imperial examination was about to start. A teacher at Huaqing Academy was in a hurry to return to his hometown to attend a funeral.
Other teachers were already busy in order to ensure that their students had a good ranking in the imperial examination.
Gu Fuju could take over, but he was already teaching in the academy, which often caused conflicts. Since they couldn't find a suitable candidate for the time being, they asked Wei Zhao to take half a day every five days to come and give lectures to poor students.
In fact, Wei Zhao should have left long ago, but he just tested Zhao Yu and Master Zhao, so he was delayed until now.
Passing students greeted him one after another.
He nodded in response.
Just after leaving the academy.
His eyes looked at the little girl sitting on the steps and waving at him.
His eyes softened and he walked over.
"Why are you here?"
Wei Zhizhi looked up at him and said, "I missed my daddy."
Very sweet.
Wei Zhao seriously suspected that his daughter had caused trouble again.
He frowned slightly.
Then he saw Wei Zhizhi handing over a paper bag.
"What?"
"I bought it for my daddy." He
was being nice.
Wei Zhao snorted and laughed.
He took it, opened it, and his eyes were slightly stunned.
It was...
glutinous rice cake.
Wei Zhizhi said, "Mother said that when I went to study at the Imperial College, someone in my family would buy me glutinous rice cakes. She will buy some for me in the future."
"Mother also said that Daddy's teaching was as hard as studying."
She coaxed her again.
"Zhizhi is so distressed. I will send them to Daddy in the future."
Wei Zhao's hand holding the paper bag tightened.
He almost forgot.
When he was a child, he hoped that his mother would send him glutinous rice cakes like other mothers.
But he waited for a long time.
But it was all in vain.
The sweetness lost in youth has been quietly made up by the years.
Yu Tingwan got off the carriage with Heng Ge'er in her arms.
She was very beautiful, like a crabapple that was about to bloom on a branch in March. Her skin was white with a hint of pink, and her almond eyes were clear and full of spring.
You couldn't tell at all that she had given birth to two children for him.
A gust of wind passed by, and the hem of her skirt rippled slightly, and her rings and bracelets rang softly.
When Heng Ge'er saw him, he grinned.
He called out, asking him to hold him.
Yu Tingwan stood there. The sunset reflected half of her face, and even the teardrop mole at the end of her eye was dazzling.
She held Heng Ge'er's hand and waved at him.
There was a smile on her lips, and her voice was soft, but it went straight into his heart.
"We are here to take Dad home."
