Chapter 185 Don't Give Him a Chance to Escape



In the afternoon, when Chen Shubing went to teach, he attracted countless eyes because of the golden belt. Everyone was wondering if Shen Shubing was possessed by some strange thing. When they learned that it was a gift from Wei Fu to Shen Shubing, the Sixth Prince and others who knew Wei Fu's preferences felt deeply sympathetic to Shen Shubing. They suddenly felt that the gift prepared by their sister for them was so thoughtful, so good, so great, and so tasteful.

The younger generation of Lin Xu's family told Lin Xu about this after they returned. Lin Xu thought that since his junior sister had prepared gifts for his fellow junior brothers, she must have prepared some for him as well. He had to think of a way to hide!

Thinking of the eye-catching big gold chain that Tao Zhi wore when he went to court in the morning, and thinking of Shen Shubing's gold belt, Lin Xu had a bad premonition.

Just as he was starting to have this bad premonition, he heard the servants say that Wei Fu had arrived.

Lin Xu was just about to tell someone that he was sick when he saw his junior sister rushing in, her bangs standing up.

This really doesn't give him a chance to escape.

He could only greet him with a smile. Just as the man walked up to him and hadn't said a word, Wei Fu stuffed something into his hand. He looked down and saw that it was exactly as he expected!

It really is a pair of golden knee pads.

Wei Fu's eyebrows curved, "Brother Thirteen! The weather is cold now, and your knees must be cold when you ride a horse to court. So Fu'er thought of buying you these knee pads. Wear them when you ride a horse so your knees won't be cold."

After she finished speaking, she looked around furtively and waved at Lin Xu: "You often need to kneel when you go to court. With this golden kneepad, you won't feel any pain in your knees when you kneel. This is a gift from Fu'er. Even if your uncle finds out, he will pretend not to see it."

Lin Xu was in a very complicated mood.

On the one hand, I think my junior sister has poor aesthetic taste, but on the other hand, I am moved by her thoughtfulness and meticulousness.

"Thank you, Junior Sister. If you want to have dinner at home, I'll ask your sister-in-law to prepare some delicious food for you..."

Wei Fu's heart was moved, but he still shook his head: "No, my second brother and the others are still waiting outside for Fu'er to go home together. Fu'er will leave first~~~"

After saying this, Wei Fu waved his hand and ran away.

Lin Xu didn't even have time to call someone to send her off.

Wei Fu came out of the Lin family, but met Chen Ci and others on the way back. Chen Ci and Shen Xi's carriage broke down, so they were waiting on the roadside for their own carriage to pick them up. Wei Fu had just gone down to find out what happened when the Shen family's carriage arrived. It was Chen Ci's sister Chen Nian who came to pick them up.

After seeing Wei Fu's respectful greeting, Shen Nian smiled and said, "I've always heard Xi'er say that she has a good relationship with you, Princess. When you are free, you can come to our house as a guest. I'm sure Xi'er will be very happy. Our Shen family also welcomes you."

Wei Fu said happily: "Okay, okay, if I have time, Fu'er will come to visit."

Shen Ci looked at her sister with admiration. Her sister actually asked Wei Fu to come with just one sentence.

Shen Xi pursed his lips when he heard Shen Nian’s words.

She wanted to say something, but she kept her mouth shut and planned to talk to Wei Fu alone at the academy tomorrow.

Because it was getting late, everyone went their separate ways without saying much.

The next day when they arrived at the academy, Chen Xi pulled Wei Fu aside and whispered to her, "Princess, thank you so much."

"But you still don't want me to visit your home recently. People in the capital want you to come and help see if there is anything strange in the house. My family has the same idea. If they invite you to their home, they will definitely let you take a look." She was just timid before, but not stupid.

Especially after Wei Fu said those things, she slowly and carefully paid attention and found many problems.

But she didn't dare tell anyone. There was no one she could trust, not her grandparents, her second uncle and sisters, and not even her maternal grandparents. She could only pretend that she knew nothing and wait until she grew up and had enough strength to find out everything.

Wei Fu asked her, "Do you want Fu'er to go?"

Chen Xi said: "Of course I want Fu'er to come to my house as a guest, but... the place where I live now is probably not my real home."

Wei Fu felt a little distressed seeing Chen Xi like this.

She patted his shoulder, who was taking a deep breath, and said firmly, "Then Fu'er won't go. I'll go after you have your own family."

"However, if you need Fu'er's help with anything, be sure to tell Fu'er. We are good friends. Fu'er is very capable and can help you."

Chen Xi smiled brilliantly and said, "Okay, I won't be polite with you." It was great, so lucky that she could meet the princess.

Otherwise, she might be a fool all her life and might not even know how she died.

No one is as pure as the princess.

More than half a month after Wei Fu returned to Beijing, many families received news that because the daughter of the Tan family who had divorced and returned home had caught the eye of Princess Yahe and had become good friends with her, the Tan family had paid 100,000 taels of silver to invite Wei Fu.

When the news came out, some people were waiting to see the excitement in the Tan family, while others were thinking about how to catch Princess Yahe's eye.

Some smarter ones thought early on that the only thing in common between Princess Yahe and the daughter of the Tan family was that they were both divorced women and their husbands were not good enough. For a while, the treatment of these divorced women who returned home was much better, and most of the visiting cards received by Princess Yahe's mansion were sent by divorced women. But that's all for later.

It is said that Wei Fu, Long Yin and the second prince arrived at the Tan family together. When the people of the Tan family saw that the second prince had also come, some of them wanted to ask the second prince to leave.

The Second Prince smiled and said, "Master Tan, are you still trying to silence my sister?"

"Since we've invited someone from the royal family, don't overthink it."

"Master Tan has a chance to regret... but only this once. And if Master Tan changes his mind, I will never come to your house again, no matter what."

If they weren't afraid of scaring the people of the Tan family, the Sixth Prince and his men would have followed.

After much hesitation, Tan's father, Minister Tan, finally let the second prince go along and did not regret it.

In fact, he thought about it over and over again and felt that the development of the Tan family should not be like this. He is the one with the highest official position in the Tan family now, but he is old and will have to retire in two years. If he retires, among his sons, the rebellious son who was expelled from the family will be the one with the highest official position.

As for the other sons, the eldest son was able to achieve an official rank with his help and planning, but if he lost his support, he would never be able to move forward even a single step.

So he felt that there was something wrong in his family, otherwise why would there be conflicts between father and son, and between brothers?

My daughter also divorced me.
