The next day, Cui Weizhen asked for family leave, and the date of departure was decided.
Ye Zhenzhen didn't take a break that day. She was so busy packing her things that she didn't even have the heart to see her favorite giant panda. Cui Weizhen felt distressed but couldn't stop him, so he had to stay with her all the time.
Just in case anything happens to her.
But Ye Zhenzhen refused: "You go ahead and do your work. You don't have to accompany me. The maids are all busy. I only need to sit and give instructions. It won't tire me."
The decision to leave Beijing was made in a hurry, and there must be many things that had not been arranged. Ye Zhenzhen did not want him to accompany her now, and she would have to be busy late at night.
Cui Weizhen weighed it up and finally agreed.
As soon as he went to the front yard, Yuxiu reported back to the shopkeeper Qian of Duobao Zhai that he had sent a box of dongzhu. Ye Zhenzhen called the person over and asked, only to find out that it was Cui Weizhen who had asked shopkeeper Qian to pay attention to it earlier. The people below today
He just sent it to the capital, and he sent it to the uncle's house as soon as possible.
No wonder Shopkeeper Qian looked like he had something to say yesterday. It turned out to be because of Dong Zhu.
Ye Zhenzhen opened the box and took a look, and saw 298 East beads placed on the velvet silk surface. These East beads were carefully selected, each one was large, plump, round and crystal clear, faintly exuding colorful colors in the sunlight.
The luster caused bursts of gasping sounds.
Even though they are used to seeing good things around their master, the eyes of the maids and women are still glued to a box of shining pearls. Regardless of their status, no matter how old or young they are, no woman can resist the temptation of jewels.
East beads are not easy to come by, and a box of such round, full, and equal-sized East beads is even rarer. It would be enviable for other ladies to get just one East beads as decorative jewelry, let alone this box of East beads.
Yupan secretly muttered: "I'm afraid even the ladies in the palace don't have such good things."
This time, Yuxiu and Qiu Wu rarely blamed her for talking too much, because they thought so in their hearts.
Although Ye Zhenzhen was shocked, she quickly recovered. What she was thinking was: Where did Wei Zhen get so much money to buy these Dongzhu?
Cui Weizhen did not return to the courtyard until the afternoon. As soon as he came back, he heard about the arrival of shopkeeper Qian, and immediately understood that Dongzhu had arrived.
So Ye Zhenzhen took the opportunity to ask him where Dongzhu came from?
Cui Weizhen said very vaguely: "It's the filial piety of the people below. Just add some money."
Ye Zhenzhen was a little speechless, it turned out that he was accepting bribes.
This is somewhat unspeakable.
Cui Weizhen seemed to have read through her thoughts and chuckled: "Don't worry, it's normal income. You can play with these Dongzhu, give them away, or let shopkeeper Qian use them to make jewelry. Don't leave them alone."
Ye Zhenzhen was not in the mood to talk about jewelry now. Since it was a normal income, there was no need to worry, because the arrival of shopkeeper Qian reminded her of an incident yesterday.
"What did Feng Yuran do behind his back to let you know?"
Cui Weizhen didn't want to tell her at first, but he thought he would leave Beijing tomorrow and be alone in the capital, so it would be nice to have some precautions in mind.
He said: "I know the details very well, but I just vaguely know that she and others are planning to deal with Baishan Hall. I have people watching me, and the deacon of Baishan Hall has already asked people to remind them. You don't have to worry, just know it well."
."
Ye Zhenzhen's brows furrowed: "She is so uneasy as a widow waiting to be married, why does she come to provoke me again? Haven't she learned enough lessons?"
Cui Weizhen felt that Zhen'er was still too kind and always liked to think the best of people. Once Feng Yuran fell from the clouds to the mortal world, it was inevitable that he would hate her in his heart. Since he had the opportunity to retaliate, he would definitely not be merciful.
Not to mention that there are no decent people in the Feng Mansion, and Feng Yuran's behavior is not up to par.
"They're just insignificant people, there's no need to pay attention to them."
Cui Weizhen changed the topic: "It will take more than a month for us to go back and forth. You have to take good care of yourself when you are alone in the capital. I have already told Jin Yu to come to my house when he is free. If he has anything to do, he can
Support one or two."
Because you don’t have to enter the back house, you don’t have to worry about others criticizing you.
Ye Zhenzhen unconsciously rubbed the handkerchief in her hand, her expression a little astringent, but she still responded instinctively: "Well, I have informed my parents that they will come to live in the house tomorrow. You don't have to worry about us.
, just go visit your grandfather and grandmother with peace of mind."
Cui Weizhen took her into his arms with pity and said guiltily, "You are already six months pregnant. I should be with you, but now you have to support the huge uncle's house alone."
Ye Zhenzhen nuzzled into his arms: "What are you talking about? Fulfilling filial piety is the moral code of human beings. It is your duty to visit your sick elders. How can you delay it because of me? Don't talk about outsiders.
No matter how you accuse him, even I will feel uneasy."
"Zhen'er, thank you."
Cui Weizhen hugged her, listened quietly to the beating of the child, and slowly calmed down.
The next morning, Cui Zhiduan and Cui Zhiming came to Mingxi Garden early to ask for their services. Both children had obvious reluctance and sadness on their faces, especially Cui Zhiduan, whose eyes were red, as if he had cried not long ago.
Ye Zhenzhen rubbed his little head: "You are already a young adult, so you can't cry. My mother is inconvenient and can't go there in person. As her son, you should fulfill your filial piety for her.
"
Cui Zhiduan nodded fiercely, and with such force, another crystal teardrop seemed to fall down.
Ye Zhenzhen pretended not to see it and started to give Cui Zhiming instructions again. They were young and it was their first time traveling far away. Even though Cui Weizhen was watching, she still couldn't rest assured. She had to give them a lot of advice before she could rest assured.
Cui Weizhen waited for them to finish speaking before letting others pass the meal around. After breakfast, it was finally time to part ways.
Ye Zhenzhen insisted on sending them out of the city gate, Cui Weizhen had no choice but to agree to her.
Farewell outside the city, Ye Zhenzhen reluctantly let go of the hands of the father and son, took out a mutton-fat jade pendant and hung it on Cui Zhiduan and Cui Zhiming: "I asked for this jade pendant from Xiangguo Temple. Please take it with you and bless you."
Have a safe and smooth journey.”
Cui Zhiduan and Cui Zhiming nodded with red eyes. They did not dare to speak for fear of crying if they spoke.
Ye Zhenzhen gave Cui Weizhen a sachet, and Cui Weizhen hung it directly on her waist. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Okay, it's windy outside the city. You should go back quickly. It's time for us to set off."
Ye Zhenzhen bit her lip, nodded heavily, and said with difficulty, "I'll go back after watching you leave."
Cui Weizhen's eyes fell on her red eyes, his eyes darkened a little, and he finally jumped on the horse. Cui Zhiduan and Cui Zhiming bowed longly and boarded the carriage.
Looking at the back of the motorcade fading away, Gu Qingyi could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
After a long time, the sound of horse hooves disappeared, and even the back could not be seen. Ye Zhenzhen wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said hoarsely, "Go back."
