Chapter 158 - Chapter 158 - Former friends

The scholar calmly shook off the dust on his body. "Those two maids said that the lady was Xie w.a.n.g"s w.a.n.gfei. Now that I believe them, her ferocity and viciousness are somewhat similar to Xie w.a.n.g"s."

"If that"s the case, why didn"t you send me down the mountain? Are you going to let this Wu Shan die with you?" With Xie w.a.n.g"s temperament, he will naturally not let anyone in the village off, not even a single blade of gra.s.s. " Wei Yuanwei"s eyes flashed with coldness.

The scholar did not expect that such a weak and fragile girl would have such an oppressive aura.

"Tomorrow"s wedding will continue. Girl, rest early." The scholar didn"t seem to be fl.u.s.tered at all, he only indifferently smiled.

This person had indeed eaten the guts of a leopard.

Wei Yuanwei stared blankly at the mottled bronze mirror. She would not sit still and wait for death.

"Miss should go to sleep. I need to get my makeup done tomorrow at midnight." The old woman stepped forward to extinguish the candle flame.

Wei Yuanwei stopped her with a smile, she held her stomach with a wronged look on her face: "Grandma, I"m hungry, do you still have food in the kitchen?"

"This old woman will bring the young lady to look for some." Tomorrow is when Wei Yuanwei will become the wife of the village master, the old woman will naturally treat her extremely well.

Wei Yuanwei followed the old lady into a s.p.a.cious and simple hut. Rows after rows of black porcelain vases were piled on the ground, and every vat was tied with a red rope. It seemed like this was the wedding wine that was going to be served tomorrow.

"There"s also some chicken soup. This old body will warm it up for Madam." The old woman busied herself around the stove.

Wei Yuanwei was sizing up the kitchen, she saw that there were a few earthen jars stacked at the corner, he walked over and wanted to open them.

The old woman stepped forward to stop her. "Madam, don"t move. This is a marinated bean. It hasn"t been marinated yet. If you open it now, it won"t be edible in the future."

The corner of Wei Yuanwei"s mouth hooked up. After the chicken soup was ready, she said that it was too oily. He only took a sip and stopped drinking.

The old woman accompanied her to her room, where she fell asleep on a couch.

Wei Yuanwei stepped forward and embraced the old lady. Seeing that she did not make a move, he quietly went out the door.

She poured the unpickled beans into the wedding wine, afraid that she would only discover her trick if she drank them to the end. Tomorrow, she would use her actions to tell the entire Wushan Stronghold that it was not easy to bully a woman like her.

When the sky was still bright, Wei Yuanwei was woken up by the old lady from his dreams, and the woman in the village began to help Wei Yuanwei with his makeup.

"This lady"s hair is really good, thick and smooth. It really makes one envious." A woman laughed.

"Not just her hair, but her body is also well-bred." Another woman said.

Wei Yuanwei allowed them to dress him up, but there was a trace of a smile on her face.

What Wei Yuanwei found strange was that although it was the sound of the drum outside, no one brought her out to pay their respects.

Wei Yuanwei, dressed in red, paced back and forth uneasily in his room. Based on her calculations, Xuan Li should have arrived with his guards, but why hadn"t they made any movements yet?

The door suddenly opened as Wei Yuanwei held the sharp blade in his hand warily.

"The w.a.n.gfei has been waiting for a long time." A familiar voice came out, only to see Yun Xie dressed in purple clothes with a coiled dragon pattern on it, as a trace of a smile appeared in her ice-cold eyes.

Wei Yuanwei"s face revealed an astonished expression.

At this moment, the scholar stepped forward with a smile and bowed. "If you have offended my wife a few days ago, please forgive me."

Yun Xie just looked at Wei Yuanwei quietly. Seeing that Wei Yuanwei did not speak for a long time, he could not help but raise her eyebrows, her eyes revealing her fierceness: "Tang Yu, looks like the w.a.n.gfei did not forgive you.

"There"s no need. The prince is only putting on an act right in front of my eyes. Why would I need to be serious?" It looked like Tang Yu and Yun Xie were old acquaintances.

The hateful Tang Yu was still playing with her. However, she soon let him know how powerful she was.

When Tang Yu left, she closed the door, leaving Wei Yuanwei and Yun Xie alone in the room.

"Why are you unhappy that This King has come?" A trace of unnoticeable haze flashed across Yun Xie"s eyes.

He originally wanted to bring his men to help Xuan Li, but he did not expect to hear this news.

There were many unhonorable things that had been done by Tang Yu and had been helped by him. Naturally, he could not punish her severely, and with the entire matter having been instigated by the old granny who was with Xiya, Tang Yu did not know that Wei Yuanwei was his consort at first, thus he agreed to the old lady"s request.

The old granny"s request was to have Tang Yu tie Wei Yuanwei up and scare him a bit, but she did not do anything to Wei Yuanwei. Furthermore, the other party had offered such a high price, and Tang Yu herself was silently collecting money for him.

"Your highness is really busy. Every day, you are busy trying to save the beauty as a hero. Why would I blame Your highness?" Wei Yuanwei laughed.

She had secretly hinted at Yun Xie saving Wei Guanshu.

"You already know about it?" Yun Xie lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, the dancing candle flame on her jade-like face flickering.

"Actually, there is no need for you to hide it. As long as you are happy, you can say so. If you want to marry her, I will clap my hands and cheer you on. After all, Qingmei"s feelings cannot be forgotten." Perhaps it was due to the unfavorable circ.u.mstances he had suffered over the past few days, that caused Wei Yuanwei to feel somewhat angry in her heart. She even forgot that the man in front of her was Xie w.a.n.g, who could kill without batting an eye.

Yun Xie suddenly grabbed her wrist, and a wave of pain came over.

"Your Highness, do you know that for the past few days, I have been unable to eat or sleep at night. When I think about the relationship between the Duke and Wei Guanshu, my heart felt as if a knife had been twisted into it?" Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked like a jealous child. She didn"t want to die yet.

The hostility on Yun Xie"s body vanished as the corner of her cold mouth slightly rose: "I wouldn"t do that."

Yun Xie hugged Wei Yuanwei in her embrace, sticking to his ice-cold armor was actually his powerful heartbeat.

Outside was a complete mess. The people in the village all held their stomachs with painful expressions.

Even when sending the two out of the village, Tang Yu"s face was still ashen green, and she forced a smile.

Yun Xie climbed onto the horse and carried Wei Yuanwei in her arms. The wind blew her hair all the way to his face, making it very itchy.

"You did it on purpose?"

"They won"t let me get away with it, so I will naturally retaliate viciously." Wei Yuanwei raised his chin and said proudly.

Yun Xie only caressed her hair lovingly.

Yin Sheng saw Wei Yuanwei coming from afar and pounced towards him. With snot and tears, she hugged Wei Yuanwei in her embrace, "Master, you really scared this servant to death. If you didn"t appear, this servant would have run into a wall and died."

When she saw Yun Xie, she released Wei Yuanwei and bowed to him.

"I"m fine." Wei Yuanwei looked towards the carriage: "Where"s Ah Qing?"

"She won"t wake up until late in the morning." Yin Sheng wiped her tears and smiled.
