Chapter 109 Jealousy
"As far as I know, Mrs. Yuan accompanied Mr. Yuan back to Beijing to report on his work, and also visited her father, Prince Huai. She originally had time to come back to give birth. She didn't want something to happen midway, so she was delayed for more than a month on the way. The child was delivered prematurely, which led to her giving birth to the child halfway, but I heard that she was lucky to meet a noble man, so the mother and child were safe," said Yun.
Then Yun said: "But none of this is important. We just need to remember that Mrs. Yuan is still a little weak and can't stand the cold and fright, so we need to be careful." "Yes, my daughter knows." Wei
Qingwan
usually Yunshi was reassured by his soft voice.
Wei Ruo, on the other hand, acted a little carelessly, which actually made people worry that she might act out of line.
But now, it is useless for Yun to worry, she can only wait and see what happens.
After a cup of tea, the three Yun family members arrived at Tianqin Garden on time.
This is the villa of the prefect, and it is also the garden ordered by Prince Huai to be built for his daughter Princess Jingmin. Therefore, it is larger and more luxurious than the main residence of the prefect.
However, after all, the Wei family came from Zhongyi's house, and they had seen this scene before, so they didn't show their timidity.
Yun Shi took a special look at Wei Ruo who was following behind her, and saw that she looked as usual and didn't show any timidity, so she felt a little relieved.
Wei Qingwan also glanced at Wei Ruo subconsciously.
I didn't see her showing any timidity, which made her feel a little disappointed.
Although Wei Ruo was dressed simply today, she was extremely eye-catching.
No amount of dressing up would be of any use if she showed off her timidity, but she was as calm as ever and her confidence overflowed, which made her stand out.
When you enter the garden, you will see flowers and plants scattered in height and height, complex and orderly. There is a pond full of lotus in the garden. This season, all the lotus leaves and lotus have withered, and there are still a few withered yellow lotus pods swaying slightly in the wind. Although not gorgeous, it has a unique mood.
There are several raised mandarin ducks playing in the water, and koi carps of various colors including gold, red, and black can be seen in the water.
The most attractive and blooming thing at this time is the patch of sweet-scented osmanthus and chrysanthemum.
Especially the sweet-scented osmanthus, golden, orange, light yellow, one piece after another, full of fragrance.
As soon as I entered the garden, I was surrounded by the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.
It seems that the prefect's wife loved osmanthus very much, so she planted such a large number of osmanthus in the garden and scheduled the garden party at this time of year.
When Wei Ruo came in, there were already many people in the garden. These people seemed to be familiar to each other, and most of them were from the city. They were chatting with each other.
The three Yun family members, who had just arrived, had no one to pay attention to, and they stood aside looking a little embarrassed.
Both Yunshi and Wei Qingwan looked a little unnatural. Only Wei Ruo looked at the flowers like a normal person and didn't care about what the others were talking about.
There were many varieties of flowers in Qinyuan that day, many of which were rare varieties. Just in the corner on her right, there were many kinds of precious camellias. It was a pity that it was not a good time to appreciate camellias, otherwise this corner would have been Gorgeous and eye-catching.
Further ahead is a field of roses. Single-season roses generally bloom in spring and summer, and multi-season roses also bloom in autumn. However, this year’s temperature is low, and it is estimated that they will not bloom, so these roses only have green leaves but no flower buds.
Wei Ruo watched as he walked and came to the lotus pond.
Looking at the pond, Wei Ruo couldn't help but think that there should be a lot of lotus roots growing under the pond. When they mature in one to two months, they will be picked, stuffed with corn, and cooked, and the fragrance will be overflowing.
At this time, a lady came to Mrs. Yun: "Mrs. Wei."
Mrs. Yun smiled and nodded in response: "I wonder what I call you, madam?" Mrs. Yun
didn't know who the other party was, but seeing that the other party spoke in an extraordinary way and was dressed gorgeously, she knew that her identity was unknown. vulgar. "My husband's surname is Xu, and his official title is Linhai Zhizhou." Mrs. Xu replied.
Zhizhou is the fifth grade.
Mrs. Xu then asked: "Is the person in light blue clothes by the lotus pond your daughter?" "
Yes, that is my eldest daughter." Yun replied.
"I have heard that the Wei family's daughter improved the wasteland to benefit the people, which is a blessing." Mrs. Xu said.
"Madam, you are exaggerating. The rice fields have not been harvested yet, so I don't know if it can really benefit the country." Yun replied humbly.
"Mrs. Wei is humble. Miss Wei is the first to do this in Taizhou. And today I saw that Miss Wei is dignified, beautiful, and outstanding in style. Such a talented and beautiful woman is the daughter of a noble family that I have seen in recent years. It's rare."
Yun couldn't help but feel happy when she heard the compliment. She didn't expect that her daughter's affairs in the south of Xingshan County would be so famous in the city, and that she would receive great praise for it.
Wei Qingwan stood behind Mrs. Yun, and the more she listened, the more uncomfortable she became.
She appeared in front of Mrs. Xu, but Mrs. Xu didn't even ask. There was only one Wei Qingruo in her eyes, as if there was only one daughter of the Wei family.
His achievements in opening up wasteland in the south of the city are nothing more than that, so why can’t his appearance compare to that of Wei Qingruo?
Wei Qingwan looked at Wei Ruo standing by the pool from a distance. He was obviously dressed casually and didn't have many accessories on his body, but he didn't know why he was so eye-catching.
Wei Qingwan lowered her head and looked at herself. She had carefully prepared this for several days. From her hair accessories to her clothes, they were all the best she could show. However, the decoration of one set was not as good as Wei Ruona's casual makeup. .
If the clothes she was wearing today were made of the same cloud brocade material as Wei Ruo, the effect would definitely not be worse than Wei Ruo's.
This gap was deliberately caused by Wei Qingruo. If she had been willing to share the cloud brocade with herself that day, this would not have been the case!
At this moment, Wei Qingwan felt resentment towards Wei Ruo in her heart.
Then an idea came to my mind. If Wei Qingruo took another step forward, his feet would step into the pool water, and the mud in the pool would dye Wei Qingruo's skirt black.
It was just one step, there was no need for Wei Qingruo to fall into the water, she just wanted Wei Ruo's clothes to be dirty, just a little dirty, so that she would not look so outstanding.
With this in mind, Wei Qingwan walked towards Wei Ruo step by step.
Wei Ruo happened to be bending down and picking a withered lotus pod near the shore.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Wei Ruo turned around.
Wei Qingwan pretended that her legs were weak, she fell forward a few steps, and then her body lightly bumped into Wei Ruo's body.
Wei Ruo took a step forward and stepped into the shallow mud beside the pool with his right foot.
In order to stabilize his body, Wei Ruo quickly reached out and pulled a handful of shrub branches on the shore, using his strength to throw his body back to the shore.
But the strength was a little too much, and he jumped out several steps.
When they stopped, a dignified and luxurious lady was so close that she almost bumped into her.
Seeing this scene, Yun's heart jumped to her throat.
She stepped forward quickly and apologized repeatedly: "Mrs. Yuan, I'm sorry, my little girl was reckless and bumped into you."
Mrs. Yuan did not reply to Yun's words, but looked at Wei Ruo blankly...
