Chapter 385 True Gold Rebirth 15
The family was having dinner in the main room. Wei Nanyun was absent-minded. She was still immersed in the surprise of meeting Cheng Shu.
If she hadn't seen that familiar face, she would have almost forgotten her days in the countryside.
Cheng Shu had achieved some success in his previous life, but that was many years later. She didn't expect that Cheng Shu would appear in Yanjing City in just a few months.
He was surrounded by several people at that time, talking and laughing with their arms around each other. Wei Nanyun did not rush to recognize them. She had not yet completely established her foothold in the Marquis' Mansion, and it was not appropriate for her to interact with the Cheng family at this time.
But she felt puzzled.
And the Sixth Prince, in her memory, clearly died on the battlefield, so how could he have captured Ronglu and returned victoriously?
This development, which was different from what she remembered, made her feel uneasy, fearing that there were other things beyond her expectations.
No, I still have to find a chance to meet Cheng Shu and find out what's going on.
But the most urgent matter is my aunt's birthday.
She did not doubt Jing Yiqian's feelings for Wei Nanxi, but men's hearts are fickle. As long as she married him, she was confident that Jing Yiqian would fall in love with her too.
In order to ensure that things could go smoothly, Wei Nanyun took her personal maid out of the house several times.
On the birthday of the wife of Marquis Zhennan, the whole family got on a carriage and rushed to the Marquis Zhennan's Mansion.
It was just a family celebration and a meal together. They didn't go every year in the past few years. The main reason was that Wei Nanyun hadn't formally met any relatives since she came back, so they took this opportunity to introduce her to everyone.
The old Marquis of Zhennan had accompanied the late emperor in conquering the world. Now Jing Yiqun's father is still guarding Luoyan City in the south. Jing Yiqun has also practiced martial arts since he was a child. It can be said that his family is full of military generals.
The mansion is different from the Wangbei Marquis Mansion with its carved beams and painted pillars. It exudes a sense of roughness, unrestrainedness and boldness everywhere.
When they arrived at the main room, Zuo came out to greet them. She took the Marquis's hand and spoke to her affectionately. Wei Nanxi and Wei Nanyun followed behind. After they sat down, Zuo's eyes lingered on Wei Nanyun and said with a smile, "What a good child. Come to your aunt."
After Wei Nanyun bowed, Zuo pulled her up, took off the bracelet on her wrist and put it on her hand.
Wei Nanyun smiled sweetly and called her aunt, then sat next to her and looked affectionate.
Wei Nanxi was sitting aside, and Jing Yiqun's eyes were always on her. While everyone else was looking at Madam Zuo and Wei Nanyun, Wei Nanxi looked up and glared at him.
A smile instantly appeared on Jing Yiqun's face, and his silly look made Wei Nanxi's face flush red.
"Xi'er, come to your aunt."
Zuo waved at her, and Wei Nanxi sat on her other side.
They chatted with their son for a while, and when the meal was ready, they placed it in the pavilion in the yard.
During this period, Wei Nanyun's attention was always on Madam Zuo. In her heart, this was her future mother-in-law, so of course she had to try her best to please her.
The remaining small amount of attention was on Jing Yiqian.
The men drank some wine, and not long after the banquet ended, a servant came to Jing Yiqun and whispered something. Jing Yiqun's eyes lit up, and he stood up and went to the study with the servant.
The opportunity is coming!
Wei Nanyun instantly became nervous, and after she left with an excuse, Wei Nanxi couldn't help but stand up.
Then she remembered that she had already discussed this with Jing Yiqun, so she suppressed her anxiety and sat down again.
Jing Yiqun admired the Sixth Prince, who was good with a knife. He used a curved knife made from Kunwu stone smelted into iron. Jing Yiqun also wanted the same one, so he specially found Kunwu stone, but he was good at using a sword, so he made a sharp sword engraved with the sun, moon and stars.
The sword was forged and delivered today. Jing Yiqun couldn't help himself and went to see it immediately.
Wei Nanyun followed him to the study and saw the servant hurriedly leaving after receiving some instructions. She clenched the handkerchief in her hand, pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as she entered the door, a cold light shot towards her. Wei Nanyun screamed and covered her eyes.
It wasn't until Jing Yiqun came back that Wei Nanxi finally felt relieved.
Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and Wei Nanzhang suddenly said, "Why hasn't my eldest sister come back?"
The Marquis's wife also stood up anxiously: "Yun'er is here for the first time and is not familiar with the place. Could she have gone astray?"
Zuo quickly ordered his servants to go look for him.
Half an hour later, a servant reported back with a strange look on his face: "Madam, Miss Wei should be in the prince's study."
Another nanny whispered a few words in Zuo's ear. Zuo's eyes widened and her face suddenly became gloomy.
"Sister-in-law?"
When the Marquis's wife saw her expression, her heart skipped a beat.
It was Yun'er...what did she do?
Zuo quickly recovered and said, "Yun'er is lost. Let's go and bring her back."
She only called Madam Hou, and the rest of the younger generations including Wei Nanxi waited where they were.
The Marquis' wife grew up here and was very familiar with the layout of the place. Seeing her sister-in-law leading her straight to the front yard, she became more and more uneasy: "Sister-in-law, where is Yun'er?"
Zuo's eyes were filled with disgust. Along the way, she had already figured out Wei Nanyun's thoughts. "Qing'er," she called the Marquis's wife by her maiden name, "What is your child thinking..."
Not small.
Knowing that Qin'er and his sister were in love with each other, he still tried to interfere.
However, since they hadn't seen the person yet, Zuo didn't say much. The two of them brought a few servants to Jing Yiqun's study. Before they got close, they heard ambiguous sounds from inside.
The Marquis's wife's face turned pale. She walked over in two or three steps, pushed open the door and went in. At a glance, she saw Wei Nanyun leaning against the door with a flushed face and her clothes half open.
"Yun'er."
She quickly looked around the study and saw that there was no one else there except Wei Nanyun. She finally felt relieved. Then she carefully examined the marks on Wei Nanyun's body. Apart from her own scratches, there was nothing suspicious.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he thought about why Wei Nanyun appeared in Jing Yiqun's study in the front yard after leaving, and he felt very angry!
This kid! This kid probably has a lot of resentment in his heart.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have done such a thing when he knew that Jing Yiqun and Xier were in love with each other!
Zuo Shi did not follow in because she was concerned about Wei Nanyun's face, but she was extremely disgusted that Wei Nanyun had plotted against her son.
Although I don’t know why Qin’er didn’t fall for it, but from now on, I’ll tell Wei Nanyun to refrain from visiting the Marquis of Zhennan’s Mansion!
The Marquis's wife asked Madam Liu to bring Wei Nanyun's maid over. Seeing the maid trembling with fear, the Marquis's eyes became even angrier.
But at this moment she could only suppress her anger and let Madam Liu find the antidote.
After feeding the medicine to Wei Nanyun, he took her directly to the carriage and went home.
It was a wonderful birthday party, but because Wei Nanyun was extremely unhappy, Zuo also had a stern face. After the people from Wangbei Marquis' Mansion left, Zuo asked someone to call Jing Yiqun over.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Jing Yiqin looked bewildered. "What's going on? Mom, what happened to Wei Nanyun? Why didn't she show up after we found her? How rude! She's far inferior to Xier."
