A bunch of servants in the room covered her mouth and laughed at the mattress she changed out of. Wan Ting had only gotten married a few years ago, so she took the opportunity to make up for it by entering the room. Right now, she was staring at the bed sheets with curiosity.
Seeing that she was older than Xu Mingwei by two years, and had not come to take care of things yet, the crowd did not want to make fun of her. It was only then that she realized that she had truly grown up after being treated with Sunflower Dew.
Although the Tianqi viewed menstrual blood as an unknown item, but for the young girls to celebrate during their first period, it was something that they had to do since they were young. When the girls finished changing the clean bed, he would sleep with his daughter. He told her how to use the moon incident in the future, what to avoid, and how to take care of it.
The mother and daughter talked for half a night before they fell asleep. So it turned out that the daughter of the He Lan family came at this age. She had been here much earlier than the disciples from the Central Plains. Once a person became a human, the back was like dough being kneaded. The bulge should be raised, and it should be concave … When he was fourteen or fifteen years old, his original thirty percent had fallen far behind.
Early the next morning, Lady Helan ordered someone to deliver a letter to the palace, sparing Xu Mingwei from the academy for the next few days. She also ordered the wives in the kitchen to dye the red eggs, together with the laurel, to fill them up with exquisite baskets and deliver them to the families that were on good terms with each other. This could be considered as officially announcing Xu Mingwei as an adult.
In short, this awkward half adult ceremony lasted for a few days. Fortunately, Xu Mingwei did not have to go out as well, as she stayed in her room, saving herself from looking at her family's meaningful glance. It was not that she was avoiding the matter of her aunt, but that such private matters were so exposed to the public that everyone knew what was going on with her, and it was always less pleasing.
The next day, Xu Mingmei also came to the courtyard to see her. Although she was a year older than Xu Mingwei, she had a slower growth, so she was exceptionally curious about this matter. She asked Xu Mingwei a question that was asked all morning, and it annoyed her to the point that she was coincidentally pushed out of the courtyard by Wan Rong and the others with a smile.
Other than the Lady Helan, the only one who was most happy with Xu Mingwei was probably the Wang clan.
Even though she was the one who had personally come to ask for marriage at that time, she wanted to find a perfect match to suppress Fu Heng. But now, Fu Heng was already eighteen years old and a few of his peers had already married wives and children. Talking and laughing with others, seeing that his grandson was already in her arms, how could she not be anxious and envious?
But no matter how envious he was, Xu Mingwei was only eleven years old, and was still four or five years away from marriage. In this four or five years, if he made the slightest bit of effort, his boss would be able to hold the Second Brother's hand while hugging the Third Brother. Lady Wang started to blame the Buddhist Monk's eight characters combination, although she herself was very clear about it, she had also found many masters who had seen Xu Mingwei's and Fu Heng's eight characters combination. Mrs. Wang would rather hear something bad.
Only then did he slowly give up.
Receiving the red eggs from the Xu family, Lady Wang gradually came to a decision. A child could not be born, but the person in the room still had to be prepared. An eighteen year old young master, Fu Heng's room was already extremely clean. Other than the two concubines that were used to guide personnel at the age of sixteen, he only gave them to a total of two, but he was not too happy about it. He only asked the two girls a few times a year, and in the end, he still found out a lot of them in the academy.
Lady Wang felt that she had treated her son unfairly, and guessed that he probably didn't like the ordinary looks of those two lasses. As he sat in his room, he became more and more determined. Thus, he got his wife to clean up his daughter's wedding gift and send it over to the Xu family along with an invitation from his house.
The Lady Helan was naturally free, on the second day she sat at home, waiting for Lady Wang to come knocking.
She originally thought that she was here to celebrate, but before she could even speak for more than three rounds, Madam Wang had already pointed at and said that she wanted to take the two rooms with him. What do you mean? She was also a concubine, like the concubine who had been selected by the Wang Family to teach Fu Heng. When the mistress passed through the door, she would probably blast her off without a name. But the person who "took in" the room, would become a concubine in the future. This meant that before Xu Mingwei had even passed, there were already two of her "good sisters" in his backyard.
Lady Helan's happiness was washed away by Lady Wang's cold water, and her expression changed on the spot, "So your family has this kind of rule, I didn't ask for your advice. Tomorrow, I will go up to your house and ask your old lady if the Fu Family is like this! It would be better to just disperse! This is going too far. "
His face also turned ugly as he tried to defend himself, "Don't be angry at your own home, isn't this still taking care of Wei'er because she's still too young? Even if we have to wait a few more days after we enter the sect, with a few sisters by our side to help us share our worries, wouldn't that be one for both of us?"
The Lady Helan snorted coldly, and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, Wei'er isn't as lacking as Heng Ge'er by seven years today. Why is it that she has only spoken today? Let's go back to the old ladies of the two families, and I will naturally return the things you sent over all these years back to your house. Fortunately, in all these years, I didn't spit out a single word to Viv, and none of the things you sent over fell into Viv's hands. Since your Heng Ge'er is old, it's not good for my family to stop you from taking in concubines.
Lady Wang had originally planned this out. Whenever her daughter knew that she was engaged and the man sent her a gift from time to time, she would think about it. As time went by, his heart took root, and he refused to marry anyone else. She had never expected that Lady Helan would be so calm, hiding the engagement between the two families so tightly. How could she still hold onto the Xu family? Seeing that the Lady Helan had activated her true qi again, she became anxious and quickly pulled her back, not letting her go. As she smiled, she said, "Why are you so angry? I was only saying this to ask my relatives for your opinion.
The Lady Helan knew very well that with Fu Heng's age and character, the people in the room could not be stopped. Even if the family did not arrange it, there would be plenty of places to amuse themselves. However, he felt aggrieved at the Wang Clan's deliberate intentions of leaving a room to serve them. If the Fu Clan left their rooms, what would the Xu Clan say? Left or right, it was just for fun. If he wasn't even a concubine, then it would be a shame if he took too much of a risk. However, the person in the room didn't seem to care at all. Since nothing happened to Wu Huo, what was he doing suddenly asking the person in the room? Just buy it from someone else and put it in the room! Wasn't it to pinch Xu Mingwei, so that he would be blocked the moment she goes through the door, so that she wouldn't be overshadowed!
Was he trying to get a wife or a thief?! Lady Helan was regretting her decision to listen to Xu Tiangang's kindness. It was not impossible for her to save his life and return it to their Xu Family, why did she agree to the marriage with just a thought, and now it was too late for regret!
But it was also impossible for Lady Helan to break off the engagement with him. As the Fu Clan did not deliberately accept the marriage, after a few probing attempts, they knew that Fu Heng had already decided to marry them. As for who they were, the capital city was only this big. They could just ask around and find out. As a result, even if she was able to guard against Xu Mingwei falling into Lady Wang's trap, the other side couldn't defend against the other side and knew that the Fu and Xu families were planning to get married together. By this time, when the engagement was annulled, the man had already waited until she was eighteen and had yet to get married. It was just adding two more people to the marriage. No matter what the truth was, as long as she told the truth, Xu Mingwei's good name would be ruined.
Thus, a marriage naturally could not be annulled. The Lady Helan was just bluffing, she was just trying to gain the upper hand. To be able to dispel the thoughts of the Wang family members in their room, the worst that would happen would be if they sent someone over to their own home.
Lady Wang had such a short period of time to react, and she realized that the Lady Helan was only trying to make the conditions for herself, so she calmed herself down and laughed, "Our two families have such a good relationship, and you and I are so kind, so how can the children of the two families not be treated as their own? "If I didn't have a way, how could I have the heart to hurt your and Viv's hearts like this?"
Wang Shi used a handkerchief to wipe away her tears and continued, "Look at the same year as Heng Ge'er, which one of them didn't marry a wife and gave birth to a child, and yet Heng Ge'er is still alone, rarely returning home, perhaps because they are afraid of us seeing him and worrying about him."
Lady Helan did not look at her tears, and said coldly, "At that time, it was not our family that came to beg for us, we definitely had to marry your family!"
Mrs Wang was stunned, but smiled and said, "I saw that Wei Er really liked it, so I gave up on this old face to come beg. is also someone who doesn't know how cold and hot it is if no one reminds him of it. It was only then that I thought of taking another two rooms for him. "Mistress, don't worry. I will definitely keep a close eye on those two bastards. I definitely won't let anything happen to them."
Lady Helan still sat to the side and did not make a sound, instead she did not scold and did not pay attention to her.
Madame Wang was somewhat anxious. After all, she had never discussed this matter with the Old Master of the Fu family. She had done it herself just because she was worried that the Xu family would cause a ruckus. She was naturally unwilling to let go of this marriage, but it was just that no matter who's son, whoever's heart ached for Xu Mingwei when he entered the door, they would still be able to hook up with his soul in the future. Since there was no need to implicate him, she decided to place a few nails on Xu Mingwei before she entered the door, so stealing some of her attention would be good for them.
