Chapter 249 Attraction
Hmph, putting on airs.
"Aunt Wu, I heard from the servants that you accidentally injured your wrist. Should I call a doctor for you?"
Upon hearing this voice, Wu Weiwei was slightly taken aback.
look up.
Then, He Yuyan, wearing a green dress and a veil, gracefully walked into the courtyard.
Whether it was a special instruction from the young master or something else, the guards ignored her and let her into the courtyard.
"Miss Bei, do we know each other?"
Wu Weiwei ignored the mockery in her eyes and responded with a faint smile.
Although everyone in the manor knew about her return, Lu Hanting dared not reveal to everyone that she was the cousin.
Therefore, in everyone's eyes, she is not a cousin.
She was just a "weak" woman who was rescued by the crown prince and stayed at his residence.
He Yuyan was not angry after hearing Wu Weiwei's words.
She slightly raised the corners of her lips and smiled:
"Hehe, that's true, Yu'er and Aunt Wu don't know each other."
However, I can't stand seeing others suffer. Aunt Wu, your hand is injured and no one has come to take care of it..."
She tutted.
He feigned goodwill and said, "If Aunt Wu asks me for help, I might be willing to go to the mortal realm to plead for you!"
"Perhaps the Crown Prince, out of consideration for me, might send a doctor to you?"
Seeing her arrogant demeanor, Wu Weiwei chuckled.
Where does she get the confidence to think she needs to beg her?
Wu Weiwei's eyes revealed disdain: "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Bei."
Vivi's hand is just dislocated! I can bear this little pain.
"But Miss Bei, when you look in the mirror every day and see your own face, I wonder if you have nightmares at night?"
Sarcastic remarks slipped out.
Now that things have come to a head, Wu Weiwei no longer needs to pretend with her.
"you……"
That bitch Wu Weiwei, how dare she mock me like that.
He Yuyan took a deep breath.
"Wu Weiwei, you know what you've done!"
Don't you even know your own status? How dare you compete with me for the position of the Marquis's heir's wife?
"Hmph! Let's see if you can have the last laugh!"
After saying this, He Yuyan left Biyunting without looking back.
Seeing her arrogant departure, Lingfu spat in the direction she went.
"The young lady's true colors have finally been revealed. You can know a person's face but not their heart!"
Aunt, what should we do next?
Lingfu said worriedly.
Wu Weiwei lowered her eyes: "Don't worry! Your master won't be trapped here forever..."
Qingsong Courtyard.
"Young Master, I heard that Consort Wu's wrist is terribly swollen. Aren't you going to call a doctor for her?"
Cuiyun stepped forward to remind her.
Just now, Miss Cousin came to ask the young master to invite a doctor for Concubine Wu, but the young master refused.
The young lady was very generous and pleaded for Aunt Wu, saying she wouldn't blame her.
However, he recounted all the things that Aunt Wu had done in front of the young master.
She said she treated Aunt Wu like a sister, but she never expected that Aunt Wu would be such a person inside.
I only hope that the young master can forgive Aunt Wu's mistakes and not hold them against her.
In Cuiyun's opinion, her cousin wasn't pleading for Aunt Wu at all; she was clearly trying to sow discord between her and her.
Judging from the prince's gloomy expression, it's clear he must have taken to heart everything the young lady said earlier.
as predicted.
"No need, I think she can still sit in the courtyard drinking tea and reading books, that's good enough!"
He wanted to see when she would finally lower herself to beg him.
Yan'er is right.
Since she's so stubborn, let her be stubborn!
Let's see if she can get an erection again in a few days.
The residence of the General of Anxi.
Chen Furong had just returned from Jade Butterfly Garden when her servants told her that an old friend had come to visit.
"Senior Brother, how could it be you? When did you arrive in Great Wei?"
Chen Furong's eyes were filled with disbelief.
She never dreamed that her senior brother would actually appear in her residence.
The man before me blended in with the world, moving with the times, as radiant as the rising morning glow.
Chen Furong sighed inwardly.
Every time I see my senior brother, I have a different feeling.
From the moment she entered the sect, her master had instructed her not to covet her senior brother's appearance, for he was no ordinary person.
She thought her master was joking with her.
But after ten years of living together as a disciple, she finally understood what her master had said back then.
The eldest brother is a banished immortal who has fallen to the mortal world, and he sees through everything in the world.
There are probably only a handful of women in this world who are worthy of the eldest brother.
"Junior sister, I've been in the Wei Dynasty for some time now..."
Xiao Qingyu smiled gently, and it seemed as if everything in the world could melt away under his smile.
Despite having known her senior brother for ten years, Chen Furong still couldn't help but sigh at being stared at like that.
If she had the stunning beauty of Sister Weiwei, she would definitely pursue Senior Brother.
Before the two had exchanged more than a few words, a servant came in to announce that the young master of the Marquis of Dingguo's mansion had come to visit.
"Young Master?"
who is it?
Just as Chen Furong was wondering who it was, she saw Wu Heran's small figure jogging in behind the butler.
"Sister Chen, please go and save my sister!"
"Surprisingly?"
Xiao Qingyu stood up.
"Sir, what brings you here?"
Seeing how familiar the two seemed, Chen Furong asked in surprise, "You two know each other?"
The two nodded.
After Xiao Qingyu explained, Chen Furong realized that what her senior brother meant by staying in the Wei Dynasty for a period of time was actually going to Chongshan Academy to become a teacher.
Chen Furong looked at her senior brother in surprise.
"What, is there something on my face?"
"No, no, it's just..."
Chen Furong couldn't quite explain her feelings; she only knew that this was different from the senior brother she knew.
"Sir, is the reason you took leave to visit Sister Furong?"
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiao, who had always taken good care of me at the academy, turned out to be Sister Furong's senior brother.
"Hmm. So you just said you needed to talk to your junior sister?"
Judging from his flushed face, he must have something really important to do.
When the topic turned to business, Wu Heran quickly recounted how his sister had been locked in the courtyard and unable to leave.
"This... Third Senior Brother has gone too far!"
"Senior Brother, you're here right now! Come with me to the Marquis of Dingguo's residence to seek justice for Sister Weiwei!"
Xiao Qingyu looked at Wu Heran with a gentle smile.
"Is the sister you often mention your junior brother Han Ting's concubine?"
Wu Heran looked at the gentleman and nodded.
My master sent me a letter a while ago, saying that my third junior brother needed to talk to me.
He also wanted to meet his student's older sister.
He looked at the two of them with a smile.
"Then let's go!"
Biyunting.
After reading for half an hour, Wu Weiwei asked Wanqiu to go to the room and get the Go set for her.
He rarely had the leisure to play chess with himself.
Chen Furong swaggered into the Marquis's residence with her entourage.
His imposing presence left Songzi, the gatekeeper, completely stunned.
He was utterly astonished by the man behind Chen Furong.
When they came to their senses, the group was already heading towards Biyunting, where Aunt Wu lived.
Pine Nuts belatedly realized what was happening and quickly ran towards the Green Pine Courtyard.
At the gate of the courtyard.
The two guards, seeing Chen Furong in her military uniform, didn't dare to stop her.
Seeing this differential treatment, Wu Heran secretly made a vow in his heart.
I must study hard and pass the imperial examinations so that I can protect my sister in the future if I have power in my hands.
Seeing the little boy's tightly clenched fists, Xiao Qingyu understood what was going on.
Beneath the bauhinia trellis, a stunningly beautiful woman sat in a rocking chair, playing chess with him.
The woman was facing sideways to the sunlight, and also to them.
She wore a flowing lotus-root-colored long dress, and as she approached, her near-perfect face gradually came into view.
Hearing the sounds coming from outside, Wu Weiwei turned around.
But what came into view was neither Chen Furong walking in front, nor her younger brother Wu Heran.
Her gaze was immediately drawn to the man walking behind the two.
The man was of refined and elegant appearance, with a graceful and refined demeanor, and a serene and divine air.
All the beautiful words in the world are insufficient to describe him.
This was also the first time Wu Weiwei had ever seen such a beautiful and ethereal man.
The man looked at her with a warm smile, his smile gentle and radiating a tolerance that could embrace all things in the world.
"Auntie, the chess pieces!"
Lingfu suddenly spoke up, and the word "Auntie" finally brought Wu Weiwei back to her senses.
She held the chess piece in her hand for a long time without putting it down.
If it weren't for her aunt's stunned expression, Lingfu would have assumed that her aunt's wrist had already healed.
After all, her hand had been raised for so long, yet her aunt hadn't even frowned or cried out in pain.
Seeing this scene, Chen Furong felt a mix of emotions.
She knew that her eldest brother was handsome, and even more handsome than her third brother, Lu Hanting.
But no one expected that Sister Weiwei would become so engrossed in watching it.
She suddenly began to think.
Having known Sister Weiwei for so long, she had never seen Sister Weiwei pay so much attention to any man.
Even the third senior brother never did.
Could it be that Sister Weiwei has changed her mind?
It's good that she changed her mind! Now that she's changed her mind, she won't have to see her third senior brother's icy face anymore.
He no longer had to fight and bicker with that cousin all day long, nor was he inexplicably locked up in this small courtyard.
The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly.
Sister Weiwei doesn't belong to a small backyard; she has a much larger and broader space for development.
Rather than staying in the Marquis's mansion and fighting with my third senior brother's concubines, I'd rather go out and make my way in the world like a man.
Chen Furong always felt that women should not be confined to a small backyard.
You need to have your own career, your own world.
Seeing Wu Weiwei's stunned reaction, Xiao Qingyu's eyes remained filled with a gentle smile.
Wu Weiwei, blushing, quickly stood up.
"Ranran, Furong, who is this?"
Then Xiao Qingyu stepped forward and walked over.
“Miss Wei, I am your younger brother’s teacher at Chongshan Academy. He often mentions you to me.”
Xiao Qingyu's voice is gentle and pleasant, and has a friendliness that most men don't possess.
Miss Wei?
Did he not know that he was Lu Hanting's concubine?
Wu Weiwei concealed her surprise and reached out her hand to him.
Seeing Wu Weiwei's suddenly outstretched hand, her slender, white fingers were crystal clear, as if they possessed a magical power.
Xiao Qingyu also extended his hand and shook hands with her.
Chen Furong looked at the two people's tightly clasped hands with a strange expression on her face.
What is Sister Vivi doing?
Even Wu Heran, who was standing to the side, looked at his sister with a strange expression.
"What are you doing?"
Just then, they heard footsteps approaching.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
Upon hearing that it was Lu Hanting, Wu Weiwei felt as if she had been electrocuted and instantly released Xiao Qingyu's hand.
Everyone turned around and saw Lu Hanting walk in with a face ashen as snow.
"Mrs. Wu, are you planning to have an affair?"
If he had arrived any later, would she have ended up hugging this man in public?
Because Xiao Qingyu had her back to him, Lu Hanting couldn't see who the man shaking hands with Wu Weiwei was.
However, the man's back view gave him a faint sense of familiarity.
Upon hearing this, Wu Weiwei's delicate eyes swept towards the young master.
"Your Highness, this is a custom in our hometown. We usually shake hands with guests to show our welcome."
Upon hearing Wu Weiwei's words, everyone present looked on in surprise.
Except for Wu Heran.
How come he doesn't know the customs his sister mentioned? Is it because he's still young?
"Where did this outrageous custom come from? I've never heard of it before."
"Ms. Wu, let me tell you, if you dare to betray me, I will make you pay the price..."
Lu Hanting looked at Wu Weiwei and gave her a sharp warning.
"Oh, Third Junior Brother, who do you want to make pay the price for?"
A gentle voice rang out in the courtyard, and Xiao Qingyu slowly turned around.
Upon seeing the handsome and refined man, Lu Hanting was speechless for a moment.
There was a sudden moment of silence in the courtyard.
After a moment of reaction, Lu Hanting asked in confusion, "Senior Brother, is that you?"
"Judging from what Third Junior Brother said, it seems he doesn't welcome Senior Brother's arrival?"
Xiao Qingyu's usually gentle voice had changed.
At least Wu Weiwei could sense that his tone of voice was cold and aloof.
"No, of course not. How could Han Ting not welcome Senior Brother with his presence..."
But he just arrived, so why did he go to the Wu family's residence?
Lu Hanting glanced at Wu Weiwei, then at Chen Furong, who had a very expressive face.
Yes, this is probably related to Chen Furong.
"Third Brother, when you just accused Miss Wei of having an affair, were you referring to me?"
Although Xiao Qingyu's expression was gentle when he asked this question, his tone carried a rare hint of sternness.
This……
He certainly wouldn't believe it if you said that Wu and his eldest brother were having an affair.
After all, there was nothing or no one in this world that could make the senior brother care.
"Senior Brother, this matter is probably a misunderstanding on my part. Please don't take it to heart..."
Seeing Lu Hanting bowing his head to someone, Wu Weiwei was surprised.
It's truly unexpected that Senior Brother Xiao Qingyu has such a powerful deterrent effect, actually making the usually arrogant Lu Hanting admit defeat.
Chen Furong, who was standing nearby, was not surprised at all by what she saw.
After all, besides their master, the person with the most say in their sect is their eldest brother.
Although the eldest brother is usually very easy to talk to and always has a gentle and approachable demeanor.
But if you really break his taboos, he probably won't be so approachable anymore.
The second senior brother once violated the taboo of the eldest senior brother.
All she knew was that she hadn't seen him in a year while she was in her sect.
Later, when he asked his master, he learned that his senior brother had imprisoned him in the cold pool behind the sect's mountain for a year.
"Miss Wei, please extend your hand."
As soon as she arrived, Xiao Qingyu noticed Wu Weiwei's unusual behavior.
He intended to help her correct her wrist by shaking her hand, but unexpectedly, he was disturbed by that clueless third junior brother.
Hearing his words, Wu Weiwei looked up at Lu Hanting.
