The next morning, Fu Heng accompanied her to eat breakfast, and just as he sat down in the study room for a short while, Peaches called for someone.
Although they were cousins, it wasn't appropriate for them to see each other often when they were old. Fu Heng then found an excuse and went out, leaving the two of them to talk.
Lian Qiu Bai only heard some rumours yesterday evening, and thought that if something happened to Xu Mingwei on such a big day, he would probably have some trouble with him. Only then did she ignore her body and come over early in the morning to check on the commotion. She thought that if there was anything wrong, it would be easier to reconcile with the situation and at least be able to do some good things before she left the Fu Family. They didn't want to come, but the two of them were kind, but from the looks of it, the affection between the couple wasn't lost, and they immediately put their hearts at ease.
Xu Mingwei allowed Wan Rou to cook red dates and round tea for her, and laughed, "I heard that you're not feeling well, and I didn't see you here yesterday, so I was a bit worried. I was planning to visit you today, but instead, you came looking for me first. "
Lian Qiubai smiled indifferently, "With my sick and worried body, there's nothing to hang me over. It's like this after all, I can't get better and I can't get worse. You, on the other hand, I heard all about it yesterday. It's not enough for the ladies to wear their hands full, and you even have to walk away wrapped in a handkerchief. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it really makes one's eyes go red. "" "
Xu Mingwei laughed, "Don't call me jealous, I'll let you choose, how about it?"
Jing Xuan looked at the two of them laughing, only then did Lian Qiubai turn around to glance at her, and said, "I came here today, and really asked you for a proper item. Do you have the handkerchief you usually use? Come with me. "
Xu Mingwei did not understand, but still untied the handkerchief on his body and handed it over.
Lian Qiubai folded it and put it away. He then untied his own handkerchief and handed it over to Xu Mingwei.
"It's not good to give you the commonly used medicine, but I'm also afraid of getting sick. It's not something lucky after all. If I give you this piece of the new work, you can keep it for yourself. When you see it, you will often think about me.
Xu Mingwei was moved and asked, "Are you saying you have a date to leave? Your body has not even been nurtured, how can you even get on the road? "
Lian Qiu Bai laughed. "You forgot what I just said. He had to wait for it to grow better, even if he had to close his eyes and stomp on it. As a person, what was the point in doing so. I might as well run away as soon as possible, and see the starlight and the morning clouds, drink the spring rain and dew for a day, and that would be a day. Don't be sad, there will be a time when you can set up a tent and have your seats scattered. As long as we think about each other, even if we are at the ends of the earth, we will still be very close. "
Xu Mingwei had no choice but to give up and ask her, "You and your family have discussed it well with each other?"
Lian Qiubai shook his head, "I don't know what happened at home, but the letter was sent but there was no reply. Presumably, it was delayed midway." Even if I can't wait for my father's reply, I still have to leave. My aunt and uncle have already agreed to arrange for reliable veterans to accompany me on my journey. Jing Xuan will also be coming with me, with her taking care of you on the road, if there won't be any problems, you can rest assured. "
Xu Mingwei felt it was strange. Why were Lady Wang and Fu Hongbo able to go to Xining Village without worrying about it? Even a relative of hers felt that the journey was a long one and feared that there might be some unforeseen event.
Lian Qiubai saw what she was thinking, and explained with a smile, "The days when you knew me are not long, and you do not know my temper, which is the most difficult to deal with. It was because Uncle and Aunt knew that there was nothing they could do about me, so they restrained their urge and only carefully prepared things for the journey. "
Xu Mingwei nodded her head sadly. It was rare for her to have someone who could speak with the Fu Clan.
"Have you finished packing your things? If there is anything important that is not properly treated, it would be the same if you were to ask me. "
Lian Qiubai shook his head and smiled, "Thanks for the good intentions, but the things I have prepared now are enough to give me a headache. It's a long list, and if you don't know it you can take it as a bet."
Xu Mingwei laughed and asked: "Which escort team did you invite this time?"
"It was originally an acquaintance of Uncle and was organized by the veterans themselves. This time, they just happened to be escorting the porcelain tools to the northwest, so they didn't rush on their way to take care of the distance of my convoy."
Xu Mingwei saw that when she talked about the matters of the day, her eyes seemed to be filled with hope, and envy rose up in her heart. Ever since she was young, she had never seen anything other than the capital. Now that she was married to someone, she felt even more hopeless.
The two talked about the matter of going out again for a long time. Fu Heng was unable to sit still outside, so he deliberately ran to the study room to cough, making Lian Qiu Bai and Jing Xuan cover their mouths and laugh.
"Alright, alright. Miss, let's go back earlier. When the couple is making the oil, they will be stepped on by the cow if they forcefully stick to it."
Jing Xuan laughed loudly, but when she heard Fu Heng, he coughed again, but this time she was really choked on saliva.
After sending off the Master and servant pair, Fu Heng heaved a sigh of relief. However, he had been seen by Xu Mingwei and laughed sinisterly to himself.
That afternoon, Lady Wang actually had people come to look for Fu Heng. The girl said that she had found the drink and let the couple walk through the yard together. Other than identifying the person, she also wanted to interrogate him face to face.
Fu Heng's face darkened. Xu Mingwei thought that this time, it seemed that Lady Wang was going to be serious. Fu Ninghui could be considered to be courting death, exhausting his feelings bit by bit. Step by step, he pushed everyone who sided with her to the opposite side.
The two of them went into Wang's room, and sure enough, there was a little girl kneeling below them. Xu Mingwei recognized her with a glance, she was the girl who faked the news yesterday. However, her face was currently deathly pale, without even a trace of blood. She was only forcefully holding on for a bit.
Fu Heng also saw the little girl, a ruthless look flashed past his eyes, but he knew that since Wang Shi Ba called him over, he still had his own plans, so he held back from saying anything, and pulled Xu Mingwei to the side.
Lady Wang did not realise it at first, but upon closer inspection, she realized that Xu Mingwei had revealed some of her daughter's charm, causing her to feel extremely gratified. The couple being able to live a good life and not teaching these bad thoughts to be muddled was the right thing to do.
"You two come over and take a look, but she isn't?" Lady Wang pointed to the people below and asked.
Fu Heng and Xu Mingwei both nodded. The girl gradually calmed down and her eyes became clear again. She knew that this time, she would be able to see everything from start to finish. It hadn't been long, and she was no longer afraid.
Lady Wang then called Fu Heng and Xu Mingwei to sit behind the screen. Although the two of them were confused for a moment, they still followed her orders and hid. Not long later, Nanny Xue brought people in and invited Fu Ninghui in.
Xu Mingwei and Fu Heng looked at each other, holding their breaths, they listened to what was being said outside.
Since Fu Ninghui entered the room, she had been secretly observing her expression and she had become more confident in her heart.
"Do you recognize the person below?"
Fu Ninghui shook his head, "Your mother knows best about the girls in your daughter's room. Currently, his daughter was still grounded. Not to mention strangers, she didn't even see a single cat or dog. What did this girl do now? "You are so angry at me, Mother?"
Mrs Wang gave a faint smile and said, "You crawled out of my stomach. The moment I lift your butt, you will know what kind of color you are pulling today! "Even if the people below were stolen, why are you still talking to your mother about it? Interesting."
Fu Ninghui's face turned white, she shook her head and said, "Mother, why did you insist on knowing this girl? What does it have to do with me? If you don't want to say it, then do it because your daughter did it. If you want to beat her or punish her, then do it! "
Mrs Wang sneered, "You're still being stubborn? Do you know whether or not you've banned yourself in the courtyard?! "" No, no... I don't understand. Your brother and sister-in-law are living a good life and didn't even provoke you. Time and time again, I've been trying to capture your brother and sister, so that they won't have a peaceful life, right? "
Fu Ninghui held her neck up as she argued, "Mother, you really don't make sense! Did she just call his daughter over to scold her? "Whatever I've done, if you can say it out loud, your daughter will accept it!"
Lady Wang turned her hand and gave Fu Ninghui a slap, causing Fu Ninghui to turn her face away. Her daughter had been well-behaved since she was young, and she had never placed a single finger on her.
"For an outsider, you hit me?!" Fu Ninghui's eyes were filled with pain and disbelief. Why? Even her own mother stood by Xu Mingwei's side!
"What's an outsider?" If your sister-in-law enters our house, she will become a member of the Fu Family, and her death will be a ghost of the Fu Family! Teach you this, if it's not a Fu surnamed person, then it's an outer sect, where did you put your mother?! I, this Wang, who have worked as a slave for the Fu family for all these years, have only been an outsider! "
Fu Ninghui was anxious and guilty at the same time as she cried, "Mother, you clearly know that daughter doesn't mean it that way …"
Mrs Wang lamented, "So I was the one who didn't teach you well. One step wrong, one step wrong! Unfortunately, there won't be any heavy punishments at that time. Instead, I'll make you more and more bold and unscrupulous! Do you dare to say that Old Lady Yan is a ghost and you don't order her to do this? You dare to say that Bi Yun has confiscated all of your benefits? You want proof? Fine, I'll teach you this once, remember to wipe your mouth quickly! "
Lady Wang brushed her sleeves as she swept her pawned confession towards her and angrily scolded, "Take good care of it. It's all in black and white. Is there anyone else who can deny it?"
Fu Ninghui swept a glance over the paper. What else did she have to say? She sat on the ground with a face as pale as death, not saying a word.
