Shen Xin Yan was so amused by his small grievance and pitiful appearance that she couldn’t help hooking the corners of her lips. She quickly pressed it down, went to sit beside him, shoved the gold-painted black brocade box she was holding into his hand and said: “This is the profit from the shop that was sent a few days ago. Is it enough? If it is not enough, I will ask someone to pick it up later.”
Wei Jun Hang opened it in a daze. Like being scorched by the fire, he pushed away the box, bounced from the seat with a ‘whoosh’, and stared at her with a blushing face: “You, what do you mean by this?”
Shen Xin Yan was startled by his reaction and was stunned when she heard such a question.
“I, Wei Jun Hang, can’t do things like spending the wife’s dowry money even if I am not capable. You, You, I, I.. I’m going to be mad at you!” He wanted to teach her a lesson. But he looked at her face, which is as beautiful as a day for ten years, those words can’t be said. The only thing he can do is drop such a sentence angrily.
“Master…” Qiu Tang, who was about to lift the curtain and enter, was suddenly shoved out of the room. Wei Jun Hang, who was blushing with anger, was startled. He didn’t say anything and disappeared.
She opened her mouth stupidly. She looked at the little girl beside her in disbelief: “Just now that is Master, right?”
“Yes, yes. That’s Master.” The little girl weakly sent a sentence back.
Qiu Tang’s eyes widened.
Master actually lost his temper at Madam? The sun is coming out from the west!
You must know that this couple has always respected each other as guests. They have never quarrelled since they got married. Although Master is not very talented, he treats Madam very well. He has never said a word to Madam aloud, much less quarrelling.
Shen Xin Yan in the room saw her husband rushing out of the door angrily. She was a little confused. But when she recalled Wei Jun Hang’s words just now, she immediately understood why he was angry. She patted her forehead angrily.
It’s her fault. Why don’t you be more euphemistic instead of giving people money just like this?
“Madam, Master, he…” Qiu Tang saw the annoyance on Madam’s face when she entered the door.
“I did something stupid without thinking about it. It doesn’t matter. I’ll find him later and make it clear.” Although she was a little annoyed, Shen Xin Yan knew her husband’s temperament better. So she wasn’t too worried.
Seeing her unconcerned appearance, Qiu Tang was also relieved.
“Mama Cui just now sent someone to send a package of high-quality bird’s nest. But she didn’t say the reason. This slave thought it a little strange. ” Qiu Tang said. She took leave yesterday to go home to visit her sick old lady. She didn’t return until just now. So she didn’t know what happened this morning.
“Since she brought it, you can keep it. Go back and stew it in the small kitchen. You, Chun Liu and Xia He will also try it. ” Shen Xin Yan didn’t care much.
No matter if this is what Fang Shi means or what the eldest princess means, is it possible that she can’t even eat a few bowls of bird’s nest?
Qiu Tang responded with a crisp sound.
In the room of the eldest princess of Ning An Courtyard.
The eldest princess squinted her eyes and leaned on the soft couch. Mama Liang, who had served her most of her life, sat at her feet and pinched her legs with just enough strength.
“What do you think is the best way to handle the matter that Shen Shi mentioned?” The eldest princess suddenly opened her eyes and asked.
Mama Liang paused for a moment, and said with a smile, “The princess already has an idea in her heart. So why do you play tricks on this servant?”
The eldest princess laughed. She shook her head and sighed: “Shen Shi also has her own words. It’s true. It’s just…if I rely on her, I’m afraid Bi Zhen will blame me in my heart.”
“Princess, you have grown up with the eldest lady, don’t you know her yet? She is the most sensible. Although this change was proposed by Madam Shen, it is also for the good of the mansion. How can she blame you?” Mama Liang smiled reassuringly.
The eldest princess thought about it and felt reasonable. Just thinking about the eldest son who passed away early, she couldn’t help but sighed deeply: “If Jun Ting is still here, there is no need for my old bones to worry about the mansion. Jun Hang is still far from qualified to be the heir. Even Shen Shi is not as good as Bi Zhen.”
The words were referring to the masters of the mansion. Mama Liang didn’t know what to say. So she just changed the subject and said, “This slave just passed the martial arts training ground. I saw the eldest son dancing with the sword from a distance. That agile action, tsk tsk, It really has the style of the Duke.”
Hearing her mention the most promising eldest grandson, the eldest princess’s face showed a beaming smile. She said, “Brother Lin, that child, is a motivated person. He is a hundred times stronger than his father! It’s not in vain for his grandfather to teach him.”
“Princess is saying this now. But at the beginning, I didn’t know which one shed tears on the Duke, blaming him for being too cruel. Training the fourth-year-old baby is like training a soldier.” Mama Liang teased.
The eldest princess glared at her angrily: “It’s just you making fun of me!”
Wei Jun Hang in the other room actually regretted it as soon as he walked out of his wife’s courtyard. He only felt that his wife was well-intentioned. And he really didn’t want to be angry at her.
He paced back and forth in front of the courtyard with his hands behind his back, wanting to turn around and say soft words to his wife. But he was worried that she would turn her back on him. He couldn’t make up his mind for a while. After thinking about the decision that he just made, he turned his footsteps and left in the direction of the East Courtyard.
The martial arts training ground in the east courtyard.
The young man danced with the wooden sword in his hand, stabbing, picking, or chopping, sometimes volleying into the air and sometimes falling to the ground. His moves were quite imposing. The martial arts master who watched him nodded again and again.
When Wei Jun Hang came, this was what he saw.
The martial arts teacher noticed his arrival and was about to come forward to greet him. Wei Jun Hang waved and shook his head at him. He understood after a little thought and bowed his hands at him.
Wei Jun Hang touched his nose and stood aside to watch quietly. The more he looked, the more proud he became.
Sure enough, he and his wife’s good son, with a son like this, what can a husband ask for! See if those tortoise grandchildren dare to make fun of him behind his back in the future!
Bah, even if he is useless, just having such an excellent son is enough to look down on the capital!
Wei Cheng Lin took back the wooden sword. When he turned around, he saw his father, who had arrived at some point, was looking at him with a smile. Handing over the sword to the servant on the side, he said a few more words to the teacher and then walked towards Wei Jun Hang.
“Father!” He saluted respectfully and respectfully.
“This sword dances well, much better than Lady Nangong’s dance!” Wei Jun Hang praised with a smile, unaware of the teacher’s frown.
Wei Cheng Lin pursed his lips and finally couldn’t hold back his rebuttal: “My boy is a manly man. How could my father compare him with such a dusty woman? Besides, the boy’s sword is meant to be used to kill the enemy. It’s not to be entertained like those women!”
The gentleman on the side nodded in satisfaction.
That’s it!
Wei Jun Hang was not annoyed after being rebutted by his son. His smile did not change, “Yes, yes, it was my father who said the wrong thing!”
This kid is good at everything. But his temperament is just like his grandfather’s and he is very stubborn. It’s boring. It’s not as funny as Ying er girl. He muttered secretly.
The martial arts teacher shook his head helplessly. He stepped forward and bowed his hands to leave.
Wei Jun Hang waved his hand indifferently.
“Father has something to order? If not, the child will have to go back to review his homework.” Wei Cheng Lin naturally knew his biological father’s temperament.
“You child, no one is forcing you. It’s okay to relax occasionally.”
“Grandfather always taught the child to be self-disciplined, but…”
“Okay, okay, go as you want!” He has a headache.
“That being the case, the boy retires!” The self-disciplined boy bowed his hands and turned to leave.
“Slow down!” Only after his son had taken a few steps, did Wei Jun Hang remember his intention and hurriedly stop him.
Wei Cheng Lin stopped and turned around, looking directly at his father with inquiring eyes.
“You can spend more time with your mother in the future. She’s not doing very well recently.” Afraid that this little old-fashioned boy would give him another ‘grandfather’s teaching’, he hurriedly stated his purpose.
“Mother is not in good health? Can you hire a doctor? What did the doctor say? Is there a serious problem?” The boy asked with anxiety on his face when he heard that his mother was not in good health.
“It’s not a big problem. It’s not a big problem. She just thinks about you from time to time. You live in the outer courtyard. Therefore, she worries and thinks more, and her body is a little weak.” Satisfied with his son’s answer, he brushed off his non-existent beard.
“My child understands. Then as my father said, take more time to go back to my mother every day.” Wei Cheng Lin nodded.
After getting a satisfactory result, Wei Jun Hang was very proud. He wanted to take his son back to find his wife now and show his merit in front of his wife by the way. But he was afraid that he would delay his son’s studies and that he would be scolded by his father in the end. So he stopped thinking about it.
Thinking about it again, he was still a little unwilling that he wasted an opportunity to show his merit, and hurriedly said: “Today, you will go back to accompany your mother for lunch. But you must remember it. You will only go back with me together.”
Wei Cheng Lin was a little puzzled: “The son can go back by himself. My father doesn’t need to worry about me.”
“You just listen to me!” Wei Jun Hang stared at him and pretended to be a strict father.
“That being the case, the child will obey.” Wei Cheng Lin was also accustomed to his father’s inconsistency. He nodded in agreement without arguing with him.
***
The Duke who is over fifty years old smiled and rubbed his beard. Although his son is not up to his expectations, he has such an excellent grandson. It is just around the corner to revive the prestige of Ying Guo Gong Mansion.
“After a while, go and rehearse the marksmanship that grandfather taught you the day before yesterday. Our family started with martial arts. As a descendant of the Wei family, you must not leave your martial arts behind at any time.”
“Yes, grandson remembers grandfather’s teachings!” Wei Cheng Lin responded respectfully. After a moment, he hesitantly said, “Mother is sick. Grandson wants to go back to accompany her early for lunch.”
“If you are sick, go ask a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Then rest and recuperate… that’s all, just go!” How could he not know that this must be his daughter-in-law missing her son?
She really is a loving mother! Thanks to his decisiveness, since the eldest grandson was three years old, he brought him to personally raise him, and never let him be wasted like his father.
He couldn’t help but have a headache when he thought of the second son who was not a successor.
If the eldest son is still there, why does he need to be so diligent? Their mansion can achieve a higher level even without relying on the name of his wife, the eldest princess!
Touching the left leg that had been unconscious for many years, and recalling the excellent eldest son who had passed away many years, his heart still couldn’t help but throb.
That was Wei’s only hope! If he was still there, why would he need to drag his old bones to support his eldest grandson? How could the position of the heir of the Duke’s Mansion fall to the second son who was not a successor!
