When Mr. Wang saw his daughter coming to him after dark, he became visibly panicked.
He asked hurriedly, "Why did you come here?"
Seeing his big reaction, Wang Caiwei knew he was overthinking it.
"Dad, my husband will be here soon. We will stay here for a few days to accompany you!"
Wang Yuanwai's legs went weak and he quickly refused: "No, don't. Why would an old man like me need you to accompany me? Nian Nian, don't forget that you have a family now. You can't do whatever you want!"
"Dad, what are you thinking about? This is naturally what my mother-in-law asked. She agreed to go to Jiangcheng with us, so she asked her daughter to accompany you for a while before she left."
Thinking of her mother-in-law's impatient look when she sent them out, Wang Caiwei had reason to suspect that her mother-in-law drove them here because she felt that they were an eyesore all around her!
But there was no need to tell her father about this.
When Mr. Wang heard that it was Qiao Xin who took the initiative to ask them to accompany her, he smiled happily and quickly told Butler Zhao to clean up the house.
It's a pity that, except for marrying into the wife's family, there is no precedent in the Da Jing Dynasty for a daughter to live with her husband in her parents' home after marriage.
This happiness came too suddenly, and Mr. Wang was not prepared at all. Fortunately, after his daughter got married, the original boudoir had been well preserved, and now he could move in directly after a little cleaning.
Wang Caiwei watched her father busying around and did not stop him at all. Instead, she made some small requests from time to time, and Wang Yuanwai happily asked people to prepare.
The father and daughter got along better than before they got married. But someone was so tactless that he broke this warm situation!
It happened that the second aunt came back with her cousin, and she couldn't help but smile when she saw Wang Caiwei.
"Why didn't you send someone to let us know in advance when the Princess returned home, so that the family could prepare to welcome her early!"
Yang's hostess mentality made Wang Caiwei feel extremely uncomfortable!
"Don't worry about it, Second Aunt. I'm going back to my own home, so why would I need all these red tape? Besides, my mother-in-law doesn't like to be ostentatious, and how can I, as a daughter-in-law, surpass her? Second Aunt, please remember to be careful with your words and actions when you go out in the future."
Yang's body stiffened, and she dared not make any decisions on her own. Her niece was no pushover. Now that she had become a rich woman, she could not be easily offended. But when she thought that her son was the only male in this generation of the Wang family, her back straightened up all of a sudden!
Yang brought her son here because she wanted him to study in Qingyang Academy. Wang Caiwei had recommended him before, but Yang disliked Qingyun Academy because it was newly established and most of the students were poor, so she naturally didn't like him. Now her group is doing well, and a princess has been born. This academy was established by her niece's in-laws, and its reputation is growing.
Yang regretted her decision and immediately took her son to see Wang Yuanwai. Wang Yuanwai knew his own limitations and did not think he had the ability to interfere with the academy's enrollment. After asking for a place for his nephew, he never intervened again.
Wang Wenzhen eventually entered Qingyang Academy, but he was admitted based on his own abilities.
Perhaps he had grown up, for when he saw Wang Caiwei, he politely called her "big sister" and stood aside waiting.
Wang Caiwei was much kinder to her cousin, and this brother was considered a good thing, and he didn't grow up crooked. Of course, the father and daughter put a lot of effort behind this. If he was left to Yang's education, he would definitely not be as polite as he is today!
Wang Caiwei took the initiative to ask about his situation in the academy and taught him to study hard, not to be afraid of trouble and not to cause trouble, especially not to bully the weak!
When Yang heard this, she interrupted proudly, "Now that Zheng'er has a sister like you, the princess of a county, who dares to bully him in the Qiao family's academy?"
Wang Caiwei was unhappy: "Second Aunt, please stop talking. There are disciples from aristocratic families in Qingyang Academy. Which one of them is showing off his family background? Even the children of the Qiao family didn't mention their background at all when they went to school. They were very low-key. Who is our Wang family?
I am the Princess of a County given by the Qiao family, and I am a cautious person myself. But I show off everywhere even though I have no family members. Do you think my family is living too comfortably?
What I hate most about my mother-in-law is that she loses her sense of self-worth after gaining power. Do you think that because of your relationship with her, Qingyang Academy will let Zheng'er off if he commits a crime?"
"Oh, young lady, that's not what I meant. It's just that with the name of the Qiao family, I won't let your brother be bullied in the academy!"
Wang Caiwei sneered: "Haha, after hearing what you said, people who don't know would think Qingyang Academy is a shady place. Then why let my cousin enroll? Are all those poor students in the academy bullied?"
Yang's heart sank and she didn't dare to say anything. Did this damn girl do this on purpose?
Wang Wenzhen saw the disagreement between his sister and mother, and then he started talking about a few interesting things that happened at school to change the subject.
Wang Caiwei naturally knew what her cousin was up to, and she also took advantage of the situation to cooperate. However, after they had chatted for such a long time, she still hadn't seen her cousin come out, so she couldn't help but ask, "Second Aunt, why isn't Sister Caiyun here?"
"Her grandmother missed your sister, so she sent someone to pick her up yesterday, saying she would be back after staying for a few days!"
Wang Caiwei looked at Yang and said something that was not so pleasant to the ear: "Second Aunt, are you planning to strengthen the relationship?"
"What's the meaning?"
"If not, how can you be so confident in letting your cousin live alone at your grandmother's house when she is already so old? Don't forget that your cousin still has several cousins who are not engaged yet. If any bad news gets out, your sister won't be able to marry her cousin even if she doesn't want to!"
Wang Yuanwai also agreed, "I think Nian Nian is right, let's send someone to bring Caiyun back!"
Yang didn't take the eldest wife's family's reminder seriously. They were her own family. Her sister-in-law had disliked Caiyun for being an unkind person because her husband died early. How could she let her daughter marry into the family?
Naturally, he was not very enthusiastic about picking up the person. Wang Wenzhen felt that it was not appropriate to drag it on like this, so he asked Manager Zhao to take action.
"Mother, the times have changed. My eldest sister never told anyone after her engagement was broken off. My father died early, so naturally no one cared about my second sister.
But now that my eldest sister has become the princess of a county, my second sister's marriage will naturally rise. My aunt and grandmother are just from a merchant family. If she climbs up the big tree of the Qiao family, who will dare to look up to her when she walks outside in the future?"
Yang thought her son was worrying too much, but when her daughter came back the next morning with a unhappy look on her face, she asked casually and was so shocked that she almost knocked over the teacup.
"What did you say?"
Yang's voice trembled a little, and she looked at her daughter in shock.
Wang Caiyun grew up early and understood what her experience meant.
She didn't want to answer her mother's question, but thinking of her temper, she had to patiently reply: "My aunt specially asked for leave for my cousin yesterday, and then asked my cousin to accompany my daughter. However, my cousin and his family were also there and did not avoid it at all! They said that they grew up together and there are no so many taboos!"
