Will Chapter 148 be awkward?
The half-open window reveals the wintersweet grove that Wei Fengxing planted for her during her lifetime.
Time is like water, now the flowers are blooming beautifully and fragrant.
The layout of the house is elegant and has remained the same for ten years. Even the four nanmu and primrose-colored engraved glass screens in the distance have not been replaced.
Mrs. Shun Guogong slowly turned around and looked at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall opposite.
It was Wei Fengxing who taught him step by step after marriage.
When she was a girl, she really couldn't figure out how the Wei family could come to ask for marriage.
She is very unfamiliar with Wei Fengxing.
Although they are all in Beijing, as a noble daughter of a noble family, she has been constrained to follow the rules since she was a child and never has contact with foreign men.
The few times we met were either palace banquets or banquets held by various aristocratic families, and we only glanced at each other from a distance.
The time when they really spoke was on the day when Marquis Zhongyong got married.
She and Mrs. Zhongyonghou are handkerchief friends.
Wei Fengxing accompanied Marquis Zhongyong to marry him.
When the newlyweds knelt down to bid farewell to the girl’s parents and serve tea, the crowd was noisy and firecrackers were going off outside, and the whole scene was full of joy.
She was watching the ceremony in the corner, but was pushed by a naughty child who came from nowhere. My body was a little unstable, but fortunately I was supported by someone.
"Miss Ning, stand firm."
Wei Fengxing's voice was as gentle as jade.
She thanked him quietly and kept the distance between them calmly.
When Mrs. Zhongyonghou learned of the incident afterwards, her eyes sparkled with stars.
“You said Wei Fengxing helped you?”
"It shouldn't be. He never gets close to women. You also know that all the Wei family members are provocative. How many people are rushing to marry, but he has been avoiding them."
Unlike Mrs. Zhongyong Hou. She was startled and her expression was demure.
“I am different.”
Mrs. Zhongyong Hou agreed: “Yes, you look so good and your figure is also soft...”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”< br>
She said softly: "I'm saying that I promised her and I'm going to get married next year. It's not considered inappropriate in the eyes of outsiders for him to help me, and it won't cause any trouble to him."
But, as luck would have it, one day She still married him years later.
It would be a lie to say that I was not uneasy while sitting on the wedding bed.
The hijab was lifted by him, and he drank the Hexin wine with him. The two of them cut a lock of hair together, braided it into a concentric knot, and placed it on the bedside.
His eyes are gentle and tender.
"Would it be awkward if I called you madam?"
This was the second sentence the two said.
Awkward.
Very awkward.
But she has always acted prudently, and no one can fault her.
At such a close distance, she met Wei Fengxing's eyes, with a sweet smile on her lips, no more, no less: "No."
Wei Fengxing didn't know either. Believe it or not.
The candles in the room were crackling and burning, and he lowered the curtain of the wedding bed.
The vision dimmed.
“Suchan, tell me if it hurts.”
This was the third sentence he said to her.
From Miss Ning to Madam, they finally called her name affectionately.
It looks very step-by-step.
But the process is very fast.
Ning Suchan felt at that time that this man was not simple.
He looks gentle, but his presence is too strong. Can't be ignored.
It just doesn’t make people disgusted.
They are all married couples, so whatever he calls is correct.
After she became pregnant, Mrs. Zhongyong Hou came to see her.
“What’s going on?”
"I got married earlier than you, but there is no news yet."
"Suchan, you are an amazing man."
Already a wife, she still can't listen to these dirty words. Mrs. Zhongyong Hou talked about the rules and words and deeds for half an hour. After giving birth, Xiao Wei Zhao was the best at crying.
It was useless even if Wei Fengxing hugged him.
But once he was in her arms, he was so well-behaved.
She held the little human in her arms and was reluctant to let go.
Until the first emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne. Wei Fengxing's biological brother died at the border.
She was lying next to the cradle with her black hair spread out, looking at the two-year-old child with a sad look on her face.
After all...it would be great if she was born as a girl.
Later, when Wei Fengxing died, she was so confused that she felt like the sky was falling. Everyone told her to express condolences and to take care of herself.
She really needs to take care of herself.
I haven’t gotten married yet.
She can't let go.
But right now...
What is there that she can't let go of?
————
Different from going to Beijing.
The sun is shining brightly in Zexian County, and there is rarely any wind. It feels warm on the body.
The years of fog in Duize County have been dispersed, revealing a scene of prosperity.
Everyone is talking about the punishment of the prisoners in the cell by the censor who came to Beijing in the past few days.
"All the people tried yesterday were sentenced to death. The same goes for Qian'er."
"That group of people were actually afraid and said they would never dare to do it again. Asking the adults to spare him once, he would definitely Change your mind and become a new person, bah! This is still the case. Let's talk to the King of Hell when he is reincarnated."
"I just said how dare the magistrate of Ze County mine privately. It turned out that he used it to honor the prefect."
"This is so greedy. Ah.”
"Those people are not short of money, so why do they have the nerve to keep increasing taxes on us poor people?"
Everyone can't breathe under the pressure of taxes on land, heads, corvees, and military service. Not to mention that Ze County has extra money for road traffic.
Especially in the countryside.
How much oil and water is in your stomach in a year?
It turns out that it all went into the pockets of those corrupt officials.
Someone wiped away tears.
"The number of corpses buried under the mine in the west has been countless for many years. The Royal Censor sent people to dig out many human bones. The mine is now sealed and no one can enter or exit. I My brother had an accident there. Now he can go to the inn to claim compensation. "Repay the money."
Someone was particularly excited
"Do you remember how the policeman who led the way beat people to death?"
“I must go and see it then!”
Someone is confused.
"It's also strange. I'm afraid the money those people are greedy for is countless. But the Royal Censor sent people to search, but not a single copper coin was found, and I don't know where they hid it!"
“They were all passively tortured, and these people were crying and pretending to be helpless. Gu, said it’s impossible, and said they didn’t know.”
“Bah, is it possible that the money has legs and he can run away?”
“This is treating those noble people in Beijing. Where’s the fool? He’s already about to die, why don’t he know whether to live or die?”
This matter is not only spread on the streets.
It is also spreading in the alley.
Yu Tingwan held the heater and cracked melon seeds.
She is on her period and has been a little lazy these past few days.
Ms. Zhao: "You may not know, that Dong family! It's the Dong family that wants to harm young girls and get married."
Yu Tingwan: ...
Then she knows very well.
Ms. Zhao: "He was put on trial yesterday."
"Dong Squire may be afraid of death because of his old age, or he may be frightened by being bitten on his finger. In short, he has done anything. "
"Say him In the human trafficking business, the abducted boys were bought into families whose families could not give birth to sons. Some of the pretty girls were sold to brothels by him, and some were used as favors. It was true that his conscience was eaten by dogs. .”
"My head was broken. I said that in addition to the secret room at home, I also buried the ill-gotten gains over the years in several anonymous other courtyards."
"He has bribed officials in the four cities. The money given out one after another has reached tens of thousands of gold. "
Ms. Zhao: "The imperial censor quickly asked people to dig out those other courtyards. Guess what?"
Yu Tingwan:...
" I guess...it's all empty."
There are some changes at the end of Chapter 146
