Chapter 406 New Wife Serves Tea
Chapter 406 New Wife Serves Tea
This is true, but Wei Ling felt very uncomfortable when he thought of his uncle taking advantage of others' misfortune.
If he wanted to take something else, it wouldn't be a big deal, and he would just give it to him. But this house was different.
After the incident at the Duke's Mansion, his mother had told him more than once on the way to exile that if there was a chance in the future, they would always take this place back.
So for Wei Ling, this house not only carries all his beautiful memories, but also contains his mother's wishes.
Lushui and Guihua quickly set the table and let the two of them eat something first.
Su Jixiang picked up a piece of rice cake for Wei Ling and said with a smile, "I saw that your great uncle was a little guilty just now. I think we can talk about this matter. If he wants some money, we can give it to him. Anyway, it would be best if we can use the money to buy back this house."
"This is my house!" Wei Ling muttered.
"Yes, that's the truth, but now you've met someone who won't listen to reason with you, right?" Su Jixiang said, "After all, he's your great-uncle, and there aren't many people left in the Wei family. It wouldn't be good to really tear your face apart."
They have money, so it is not impossible to give some money to Wei Chengwu, but it depends on whether Wei Chengwu is willing to ask for an exorbitant amount.
If the two sides really fall out, the house can definitely be taken back, but this incident will leave an indelible memory in Wei Ling's heart.
Su Jixiang knew that Wei Ling had always been brooding over the death of the Wei family. As for those members of the Wei family who were still alive, even those servants and maids who had been exiled with them, as long as they were alive now, Wei Ling cherished them very much. If anything happened to Wei Chengwu in this matter, Wei Ling would definitely have an extra hurdle in his heart that he could not get over.
Su Jixiang didn't want Wei Ling to bear something unnecessary.
His life should be happy and blissful, and should not be fettered or entangled by the things of the past.
Seeing that Wei Ling was only busy eating and didn't say anything, Su Jixiang couldn't help but raise his hand and push Wei Ling. "Did you hear that?"
"Oh, I heard it!" Wei Ling finally nodded under Su Jixiang's gaze.
He also knew what Su Jixiang meant, but he still felt a little unwilling.
But Su Jixiang is right. If a problem can be solved with money, why use other methods?
"I'll listen to you." He followed up and said.
Su Jixiang nodded with relief, "Just listen to me."
The two of them had breakfast, then tidied themselves up, and walked out of the courtyard together to Fenghuaju.
Su Jixiang also took the gift that he had originally prepared for Wei Chengwu, and asked Lushui and Guihua to follow behind with people carrying the things.
Wei Ling looked at the boxes of all sizes and frowned, "Should we give him so many?"
Originally, he didn't mind that these things were too many, but now he felt uncomfortable!
"Alright, let's put things in perspective." Su Jixiang said with a smile, "This is also your filial piety, right? It's not us who are in the wrong, it's him."
Wei Ling sighed softly and held Su Jixiang's hand, "Madam, I'm afraid he will go too far."
"Will you let this happen?" Su Jixiang asked back.
"Of course not." Wei Ling said with a sneer.
"That's it! Let's go." Su Jixiang pulled Wei Ling and took a few quick steps forward.
Inside Fenghuaju, Ruan had already done her makeup again.
A piece of hair was shaved off her head, leaving only the roots. Now she could only comb the hair next to it to cover it. As long as she combed her hair well, it wouldn't be noticeable that a piece of long hair was missing. However, Ruan was unhappy and was crying in front of Wei Chengwu.
"That's enough!" Wei Chengwu was upset by the crying, and he leaned on his crutches and said, "Your hair won't grow if you keep crying. Why don't you just hide away? You have to provoke him! You probably don't know what kind of person he is. He is a devil on the battlefield! Your Majesty had so many brave generals, why did you choose him to lead the troops to charge towards the capital? It's because he is not afraid of life or death! He only knows to move forward. If he hadn't led his troops to occupy the capital and the palace first, Your Majesty would not be in this position now!"
After Wei Chengwu finished speaking, he felt a little confused in his heart!
When he was impulsive, he registered the house in his own name. If there was any trouble, he was the first one to get into big trouble!
But after living a comfortable life for so many years, he had completely forgotten what kind of person Wei Ling was. He only remembered that he was his junior!
When Ruan heard Wei Chengwu say this, her displeasure reached its peak.
"Master, you asked me to marry you!" Ruan wiped her tears and said, "You always told my father that you would treat me well! Now it's only been a few years! And you are like this?"
Hearing Ruan mention this, Wei Chengwu could only slow down his expression, "It's not that I'm being mean to you, I just want you not to provoke Wei Ling, he has a title now!" He sighed and took out a silver note from his purse, "Use it to buy some rouge and powder, Madam, please don't cry anymore, or your eyes will be swollen."
Ruan glanced at the face value of the silver note, her eyes lit up, and she quickly reached out to take it.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone outside come in and report that Wei Ling and Su Jixiang came to pay their respects.
Ruan immediately stopped leaving.
I have to let out that breath in the morning! I'll see if there's a chance later!
She and Wei Chengwu sat on the armchairs on either side. Soon, the maid brought in Su Jixiang and Wei Ling.
Wei Ling and Su Jixiang first exchanged greetings, and Wei Chengwu had someone bring a chair over.
"This nephew's wife is here for the first time." Seeing Su Jixiang really sitting down, Ruan couldn't help but snorted and said, "She should be offered tea at least!"
Wei Ling frowned and was about to speak when Su Jixiang stopped him. "It's my duty, it's my duty." She said with a smile, and then winked at Wei Ling, telling him not to act rashly.
Serving tea is the right thing to do, but it shouldn't be proposed by Ruan. Although Wei Ling was dissatisfied, he still obeyed Su Jixiang and could only let Su Jixiang do what he wanted.
Ruan sneered and asked the nanny beside her to bring some tea.
Su Jixiang walked up to Wei Chengwu, knelt down and offered him tea. Wei Chengwu was stunned, but still accepted the cup of tea.
When Su Jixiang served tea to Ruan, Ruan reached out to take the tea bowl from Su Jixiang's hand, and she flipped her wrist, trying to overturn the hot tea cup. She originally thought that since she had caught Su Jixiang by surprise, he would not be able to dodge. However, she did not expect Su Jixiang to be much faster than she thought. Her wrist flipped faster than Ruan's, and the tea bowl flipped directly into Ruan's palm...
