Chapter 90 Come and Meet Your Uncle

Kill seven generals in formation?

Wei Yuan glanced at Wei Shuyi curiously and said with a smile:

"If I remember correctly when I was young, one day, my father asked you about my brother and sister's ambitions. I said I wanted to be the number one scholar, but you said I wanted to be a female general?"

Wei Shu was stunned for a moment, and his thoughts gradually drifted back to his childhood.

She didn't expect that Wei Yuan would still remember something that happened so long ago.

If he hadn't mentioned it, Wei Shuyi wouldn't have been able to remember it.

Minglan remembered something and said, "Uncle, my mother once embroidered a picture called Lady Li Guarding Niangzi Pass."

"Later, I gave this picture to my aunt."

Aunt?

Wei Yuan asked curiously: "You mean Guifen?"

Minglan recalled her conversation with Zhang Guifen in the past and asked, "Besides her, which aunt is there?"

Wei Yuan ignored her and looked at Wei Shuyi, "Sister, what do you think of this girl Zhang Guifen?"

His marriage to Zhang Guifen is already considered a certainty.

Therefore, he naturally hopes that this woman can be recognized by her relatives.

Wei Shu said seriously: "Little brother, the daughter of the Zhang family is indeed a good match. She is the only daughter of a British prince. There will be an endless stream of people who want to marry her. You should treat her well."

Wei Yuan smiled and said: "Eldest sister, please rest assured, I naturally know that Guifen is a good match."

Minglan echoed: "Uncle, aunt is really nice and kind. Uncle must be good to aunt."

She even felt that seeing her uncle and aunt sweet and happy was better than her own happiness.

Wei Yuan pinched the bridge of her nose and cursed with a smile: "You girl, have you been bribed by her?"

Minglan chuckled and said, "Anyway, I don't care about tomorrow, I will recognize her as my aunt tomorrow."

Wei Yuan shook his head, smiled, and said, "Bring the shoes you made to your uncle to see if they fit."

Minglan said: "It's not ready yet. When it's ready, I'll send it to my uncle."

Wei Yuan looked at Wei Shuyi, "I wrote a letter to my second sister, and I should be coming to Beijing soon. Then, we three siblings will have a good get-together."

Hearing the sound, before Wei Shu could say anything, Minglan said excitedly: "Aunt is coming? I haven't seen my aunt in a long time."

Ever since Minglan occasionally called Wei Yuan 'uncle' when there were no outsiders, she also called Wei Ruyi 'aunt'.

Wei Shuyi sighed when he saw Minglan's appearance:

"Minglan is spoiled by you and Ruyi. She used to be very obedient in front of me, but now she occasionally talks back to me."

Minglan shouted that she was wronged, "Mom, my daughter is trying to reason with you, not talk back to you."

Wei Yuan said seriously: "If you dare to talk back to your mother, I can't help you."

Minglan said aggrievedly: "If you give Ming'er ten courages, Ming'er won't even dare."

——

Later in the evening, Sheng Hong invited Wei Yuan to have dinner at Shou'an Hall.

This time it was a family dinner, so there were not so many rules.

Whether they are juniors or elders, men or women, they all sit at the same table.

Minglan missed Wei Yuan too much, so she sat next to him.

Initially Wei Shu thought this was a bit inappropriate, but Sheng Hong rarely said,

"Girl Ming, you can sit wherever you want."

He probably also wanted to create a feeling of love for Minglan in Wei Yuan.

However, Minglan knew very well that among the daughters of the Sheng family, Sheng Hong loved Mo Lan the most, followed by Ru Lan, and then her.

As for Hua Lan getting married in two months, that doesn't count of course.

Originally, Sheng Hong thought that Wang Ruofu would make Wei Yuan look bad on this occasion. After all, what couldn't this brainless woman do?

I just didn't expect that after Wang Ruofu met Wei Yuan, he was polite and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction with him.

Old Mrs. Sheng sat in the front seat, watching the whole family enjoying themselves, not to mention how happy she was.

Especially since the Sheng family has gained access to such a noble person as Wei Yuan.

To be honest, the old lady has paid too much for the Sheng family in her life, and the Sheng family cannot compensate her enough.

After everyone was seated, Wei Yuan said: "Old lady, Chang Zhi told me that in a few days, he will come to see you on behalf of the Xu family."

The news that Xu Changzhi was sealed off from the guard army had already spread throughout the capital.

Although the old lady has seemingly cut off all contact with the Xu family, she has always been concerned about the affairs of the Xu family.

I heard that he came to see her on behalf of the Xu family, not Xu Changzhi personally.

A warm current suddenly surged in the old lady's heart, and she said with a smile: "I have the intention, I have the intention."

As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.

For her, the biggest regret in her life is 'losing her maternal family'.

Now, the relationship between the two families has eased, and the old lady is crying with joy.

Wei Yuan gave Minglan a look.

Minglan understood immediately, got up and came behind the old lady, gently caressed her back, and said in greeting:

"Grandma, you should be happy. Don't cry. Your granddaughter will feel bad."

Mrs. Sheng nodded, "Yes, you are happy, you should be happy."

When Sheng Hong heard that it was possible for the Sheng family to ease their relationship with Yongyi Hou Mansion, he became interested and said:

"This is really a good thing!"

He secretly thought that it was because of Wei Yuan's mediation, so he felt grateful to Wei Yuan and quickly said to Chang Bai and others:

"You juniors, please quickly pay your respects to your uncle."

Wei Yuan said quickly: "You can just sit down and eat. There is no need for such complicated etiquette."

Sheng Hong said: "The etiquette cannot be discarded. You are their elder, so you should be like this."

Old Lady Sheng also agreed: "Just accept the kindness of the younger generations. From now on, the Sheng and Wei families will belong to the same family."

Wei Yuan frowned.

Wei Shuyi said: "My little brother, this is also a token of Changbai's kindness."

Wei Yuan sighed and nodded, "Okay."

Starting with Hualan, they bowed to Wei Yuan, "Niece Hualan, meet your uncle."

Wang Ruofu, who was sitting next to Sheng Hong, smiled and said:

"Hualan, this girl, will marry into the Zhongqin Marquis's house in two months. When the time comes, I will invite you, my uncle, to have a drink of wedding wine."

A few days ago, when Wei Shuyi was just conferred the imperial decree, he had specially looked for Wang Ruofu.

After a heart-to-heart talk, Wang Ruofu accepted her fate and gradually accepted Wei Shuyi's status in the family.

In fact, she didn't accept her fate, and there was nothing she could do.

In any case, Wei Yuan was a noble person to the Sheng family.

"Okay, I will prepare a gift for Hualan myself."

Wei Yuan smiled and said.

Hualan bowed again and said, "My niece thanks my uncle."

Next, it was Sheng Changbai, "My nephew greets my uncle."

Wang Ruofu said, "Changbai will take part in the Spring Examination next year."

Wei Yuan nodded, "These days, I have sent people to find some examination questions of the top scholars in the palace for Changbai to refer to."

Sheng Changbai bowed solemnly and said, "My nephew thanks my uncle."

Then it was Sheng Changfeng.

Wei Yuan warned him a few words, "You should focus on the imperial examination, read more and play less."

Sheng Changfeng bowed and said, "My nephew will remember my uncle's teachings."

Then it was Molan, "My niece greets my uncle."

Wei Yuan had nothing to say.

Finally, it was Rulan.

Wei Yuan smiled and said, "I heard from Minglan that you are very lively and active."

Rulan blurted out, "Uncle, don't listen to her nonsense. I am the most well-behaved one on weekdays."

Wei Yuan smiled.

Old Lady Sheng said, "Okay, okay, sit down and have dinner."

Sheng Hong personally poured a glass of wine for Wei Yuan and said, "Brother Yuan, if you have nothing to do tonight, how about you and I get drunk?"

Wei Yuan said, "That's what I mean."

After three rounds of wine.

Wei Yuan asked Sheng Hong, "Changbai and Changfeng have both studied to take the imperial examinations. I wonder how you and your brother will arrange Mu'er's future?"

Sheng Hong was stunned, "Mu'er is still young, and I haven't considered it yet. I wonder what your brother Yuan plans to do?"

Wei Yuan looked at Wei Shuyi, "What about your sister? Do you have any plans?"

The latter shook his head.

Wei Yuan said, "If you don't want Mu'er to study literature, you can follow me to study martial arts. Of course, I just mentioned it casually."

After all, their Sheng family is a family of scholars.

Sheng Hong said with some embarrassment: "Wait until Mu Ge'er is older, and see what he thinks."

At this time, Wang Ruofu interrupted and asked: "I heard that you have visited many military families in the past few days. I wonder if you have visited the Zhongqin Marquis's Mansion?"

Wei Yuan shook his head and said: "No."

Zhongqin Marquis's Mansion?

It's almost the same that they came to visit me.

Wei Yuan complained in his heart.

No matter what, he is now in the upper middle class in military merit, but the Zhongqin Marquis's Mansion

is really not qualified.

Sheng Hong glared at Wang Ruofu, "Hualan is about to get married. At this time, what's the point of you asking these nonsense?"

There is still today, don't worry
