Wanjin Lady

Chapter 4 Coping
Aunt Liu suddenly understood, "Yes, yes, the eldest lady is really thoughtful."

Aunt Liu praised sincerely, "As expected of someone who studied with her scholarly grandfather. Hey, her brain is even brighter than Wen Jing's! Just like Madam!"

Wen Wan's biological mother was the daughter of a scholar. Although she had been dead for more than ten years, she was still like the white moonlight in Wen's father's heart.

And this Aunt Liu in front of me——

Wenwan's gaze couldn't help but linger on her face for a moment.

She looks about four or five percent similar to Aunt Liu.

From this we can see that Aunt Liu is holding the script of being a stand-in for the domineering president Bai Yueguang.

It’s just that the stand-in character, who was supposed to be naive and innocent, becomes like this in Aunt Liu’s place: I’m crying, but I can uproot a weeping willow tree; I’m weak, but brother, you can take my punch.

Wen Wan smiled gently, "My sister is also doing well. Yesterday she went to Daddy's place to take care of him, serving him tea and water, taking care of his excrement and urine, without asking anyone else for help."

That's what it says.

But Aunt Liu always felt something was strange.

Serve tea and water, serve feces and urine?
That damn girl shouldn't be using the same tool, right?

"The eldest girl knows what's going on, so I won't say anything. But the elders are pressing hard. Today they only sent the eldest uncle to test the waters, but who knows if they'll force the old man to be adopted tomorrow. What will we do then?"

What happened today served as a wake-up call for Aunt Liu.

If the Wen family falls, Wen Wan and Wen Jing may be able to survive, but she has offended too many people in the Wen family and her situation is very bad.

Wen Wan, however, was calm and composed, not panicking at all. "Didn't Madam Liu hear just now? In half a month, it will be my wedding day."

Aunt Liu and Aunt Chen's expressions changed.

Aunt Chen said immediately, "Miss, isn't this just a delaying tactic to fool Uncle Wen?"

Mother Chen has never been to school.

Idioms pop up one by one.

"How can I slow it down?" Wen Wan sneered. "As long as I don't find a son-in-law, they'll be thinking about taking over this house and the winery. In this world, there's only a thief who can steal for a thousand days, but there's no such thing as being on guard against thieves for a thousand days."

Aunt Liu's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Wen Wan's confident look, she remembered that Master Wen had, despite his illness, written a letter to the Qi family urging them to arrange the marriage. A look of joy appeared on her face. "But has there been a reply from the eldest aunt?"

Wen Weiming's eldest sister, Wen Yue, has three sons.

The youngest son, Qi Guili, just turned seventeen this year.

The cousins ​​grew up together and have a deep bond.

Wen Wan, in particular, is particularly concerned about Qi Jia Sanlang.

Wen Weiming had planned this early on and had mentioned to his elder sister and brother-in-law a few years ago the idea of ​​letting his youngest son marry into the Wen family.

Wen Yue and Qi Lanting responded without hesitation.

The two families tacitly approved of the marriage of their two children. Wen Yue even sent Qi Guili to live in the Wen family for half a year, just to allow the cousins ​​to develop more feelings for each other.

But at that time, Old Man Wen still wanted to try harder to have a son, so that there would be no need for Wen Wan to support the family, and there would be no need for Qi Guili to marry into the family. The two families had their own calculations, so they did not put the marriage in black and white.

It was a coincidence that when Old Man Wen fell ill, Qi Guili also fell ill.

The Qi family began to turn a deaf ear to the marriage arranged at the door.

Aunt Chen also patted her chest, unable to suppress the joy between her brows. "If the eldest aunt agrees, then the elders will no longer have any reason to force the master to adopt a child. Everything... will be solved!"

Gentle but not optimistic.

If that aunt really wanted to fulfill the engagement, Qi Guili would not have fallen ill by such a coincidence, and the aunt would not have avoided the Wen family so much.

Old Man Wen sent four groups of people there, but they were all turned away.

Pian Dad Wen was completely unaware of the Qi family's intention to reject the marriage. Instead, he was worried about his nephew's health and wanted to force himself to drive to visit him.

Old Man Wen...is a sister-supporting demon.

"No matter what, the wedding banquet will be held as scheduled." Wen Wan ordered in an orderly manner, "Madam Liu, go find two or three tailors to come to my house and make me a wedding dress. The style doesn't matter, as long as it's done quickly. It must be completed within fifteen days."

"Mother Chen, get the staff to work and clean the house. The chef, dishes, drinks, and seating arrangements must all be decided first. We'll have thirty tables and the wedding will be held in fifteen days."

Aunt Liu asked hurriedly, "What about my son-in-law's wedding dress? Should we ask the tailor to go to my eldest aunt's house to take measurements? Oh, my eldest aunt's house is thirty miles away from here. It will take two days to go back and forth. I'm afraid we won't have enough time!"

"It's alright. Make it a little loose, as long as you can slip it on. Since you're coming to live with us as a son-in-law, what you wear doesn't matter." Aunt Liu and Chen Ma were overjoyed.

Yes.

What’s so important about the son-in-law’s wedding dress? A son-in-law who lives in the Wen family’s house is left to be manipulated by Miss Wen, right?

An inappropriate wedding dress was just the right way to give the son-in-law a warning and let him know that he was a son-in-law.

The two of them happily got busy, completely ignoring Wen Wan's opening words "no matter what".

Except Hongmei and Tu Erye.

Mr. Tu Erye is a quiet and introverted person, who usually believes in "keeping quiet but making a big splash when he does".

Wen Wan only heard him say in a resounding voice: "Miss, don't worry. If the Qi family doesn't agree to this marriage, I will break into the Qi family and grab Qi Guili to marry him. This marriage must be completed whether he agrees or not."

Hongmei disagreed, "He has legs, he can run!"

Master Tu placed his hand on the hilt of the knife and said calmly, "Then break his legs."

"Not appropriate!" Hongmei frowned.

Wenwan sighed with relief.

Her subordinates are either incompetent, thieves, or stupid. There is not a single candidate who is both beautiful and intelligent.

Fortunately, Hongmei has some talent.

The talented contestant Hongmei said righteously, "We need to put an anklet on him!"

Wenwan pursed her lips, wanting to say something, but gave up.

When she returned to the inner courtyard, Lu Ping was waiting for her in the corridor, looking bewildered. "Miss, Aunt Cui is here."

Hongmei walked quickly, peeked inside first, then glared at Wenwan, her facial features twitching.

She wiped away her tears with exaggerated movements.

This damn girl.

Wen Wan asked tentatively, "Is Aunt Cui crying again?"

Hongmei replied, "It's even worse than the Huaxi River bursting its banks."

Lu Ping lowered her voice and informed him, "Madam Cui has been waiting for you for a long time. I saw that she seemed to have some documents in her hand. When I asked her, she refused to speak and insisted on waiting for you to come back and make a decision. I think...it's a big deal."

Ok.

I just got rid of the rat monster, and now here comes a crying monster.

This concubine Cui's ancestors were high-ranking officials. Their family fell into decline, so Old Man Wen took advantage of her and made her his concubine.

Aunt Cui has been crying ever since she got married.

In a word.

She complained about her bad luck, marrying the wrong person, and being unloved by her parents.

What's even more ridiculous is that Aunt Cui cried in front of Old Man Wen about how bad her marriage was, and said how tall, mighty, considerate and lovely her ex-husband was.

Old Man Wen was still wiping the tears of the beauty with a smile.

After the two of them sighed towards the window, something indescribable began.

I have to say that in some aspects, Old Man Wen is also a genius.

Sure enough, Aunt Cui was waiting for her in the room.

Aunt Cui came in last and was the youngest, only seven or eight years older than Wen Wan.

Twenty-five or twenty-six is ​​the age of blooming flowers.

At this moment, the flower bud looks sad.

Her eyes were slightly red, and I felt pity for her.

When Aunt Cui saw Wen Wan, she immediately wiped away her tears and stood up respectfully to salute. Wen Wan waved her hand and said, "Sit down and talk."
