The real daughter is really not a human being
Chapter 96 The Xu Family Attends a Banquet
When Yaoguang said she was going out, she meant going to Xu's house for a banquet.
Although the Xu and Wei families broke off the engagement, because of the relationship of the previous generation, leaving aside the child engagement, the lady and master of the Xu family both wanted to meet Yaoguang and see the daughter of an old friend.
The two families had just called off the engagement, and it would have seemed too deliberate to invite people over openly, so they invited them over for a cup of tea on the old lady's birthday.
So Yu was allowed to go out and take Yaoguang to the banquet. Wei Shiyuan did not go out this time because of her awkward status.
The Wei Mansion's carriage stopped at the side door. Yaoguang was led to the carriage by a maid in the yard and got on.
There were already two people sitting in the car, one was Yu and the other was Yu's youngest daughter Wei Yusu.
Wei Yushu was a month younger than Yaoguang, and her marriage had not yet been arranged. Yu took her out to look around, hoping that she would meet a suitable match. This was how officials and officials would look for their children if they had not arranged a marriage for their children.
The Xu family has an extraordinary family background and has great say in both the court and the harem.
The second master Xu Mingchang was the Minister of Rites, and the Concubine Xu in the harem was one of the only two remaining concubines. His children, Prince Kang and Princess Chaoyun, had close ties with the Xu family, not to mention the other sons of the Xu family who served as officials in the court.
Being able to marry into the Xu family was equivalent to taking a half step into the most prestigious circle of officials in the capital. Yu Shi was extremely angry about Wei Shiyuan's marriage, how could it fall on that little girl instead of her own daughter?
She had been dealing with this issue privately for a long time and finally got over the hurdle in her heart, but then it turned out that Wei Shiyuan was not a member of the Wei family, and then such a vulgar girl suddenly appeared.
As for all the things that happened in the mansion, none of them pleased her, and she was not happy with Yaoguang.
Seeing Yaoguang got on the carriage by herself, wearing the simplest clothes, without any fancy accessories on her head, and with two simple pearl flowers pinned on her left and right, Yu got an even bigger headache!
If she goes to Xu's house to celebrate birthdays with this demeanor, people might think she is a maid in her family.
There is no one... Yu's anger suddenly stopped at this point. After Yaoguang returns home, servants and maids should be provided for her from the public, and one or two girls who can do makeup should be found.
Although her husband had asked her to dress Yaoguang up beautifully and continue the marriage with the Xu family, but Wei Qichen took away so much silver at once, how could she afford to take care of these things?
Besides, Wei Qichen invited a maid from the palace to work in the second room and she left after just one day. If the maids were not really useless, would they have left so quickly?
If she wants to blame someone, let her blame the people in the second house for not making preparations for her.
What Yu didn't know was that Wei Shiyuan and Wei Qichen actually prepared a lot for Yaoguang. There were four boxes of various gold, silver, gemstone, hairpins and jades. Yaoguang picked the simplest one.
This is what Yaoguang wanted, so Wei Qichen would not stop her.
In Wei Qichen's opinion, the Xu family was not a short-sighted family. Since they wanted to invite Yaoguang over, they would not ignore her because of her attire, so they let Yaoguang come.
Yu glanced at Yaoguang coldly without saying a word. Wei Yusu next to her also moved a little further away, not wanting to be close to Yaoguang.
Yaoguang could sense their ill intentions, but she didn't care and sat down by the door.
Her uncle told her to just go through the motions, meet a few people and say hello to Old Madam Xu, and she didn't need to worry about anything else. She could even come back if she didn't like where she was after meeting them.
The carriage moved slowly all the way to the main entrance of the Xu family. There was no sound inside the carriage, but outside the carriage there was a lot of noise and the sounds of people, horses and carriages merged.
Yu and Wei Yusu came forward and handed over the visiting card, and then servants came to greet them and walked inside.
Yaoguang followed behind Yu, but before she had taken two steps, a maid in a green coat came out and smiled, "Is it Miss Yaoguang from the Wei family? Our mistress wants to invite Miss to the courtyard for a chat..."
Hearing this, Yu paused. Which lady is that? It must be the one from the third room! The one who is engaged to the second room of the Wei family!
"Looking for me?" Yaoguang said to the maid without moving.
The maid's eyes moved around Wei Yushu and Yaoguang with an unchanged smile, and finally landed on Yu. "Madam Wei, my wife wants to see Miss Yaoguang. Can you make some concessions?"
"What are you talking about? It is a blessing for this child to have the love of the Third Madam. Go." Yu smiled gently at Yaoguang.
“Thank you ma’am.
After Yaoguang confirmed that the person Wei Qichen asked her to meet was the same as the person they described, she followed the maid and walked up.
The Xu family's house was not small, and the third room was far away. The maid was afraid that Yaoguang would be tired, so she planned to call a sedan chair to carry Yaoguang in, but Yaoguang refused.
As a result, the smile on the maid's face became even brighter.
After walking for a while, we left the bustling place and the environment gradually became quieter, with the chirping of cicadas and frogs going hand in hand.
The maid brought Yaoguang to a pavilion by the water. There were many lotus flowers planted on the water. When the wind blew, the lotus leaves and flowers swayed gently, which was a beautiful sight.
"Miss, please wait here for a moment. Our lady will be here soon." said the maid.
Yaoguang nodded and stood in the pavilion.
Not far from the pavilion, another maid was leading Xu Yi towards the pavilion.
"Young master, the young lady has arrived. You should at least go and take a look and say hello to her. If you don't like her, go back and tell your wife." The maid advised. She was the third wife's personal servant.
When it comes to marriage, Xu Yi is more or less reluctant. Ever since the birth of the young lady of the Wei family, he knew that he had a new fiancée who was still in her infancy.
After hearing his mother say that his fiancée was pitiful as she lost her parents at birth, he followed her to the Wei family and met the little girl.
Wei Shiyuan, who was still an infant, accidentally urinated on Xu Yi's clothes. It was the first time in Young Master Xu's life that this had happened. He was very scared and angry.
Compare it with the childhood sweethearts of my friends. Although they are all little girls, at least they are delicate little girls and they won’t pee on them the first time they meet.
Since then, Xu Yi deliberately kept away from Wei Shiyuan. As he grew older, Xu Yi no longer took the past incident to heart, but he did not have any romantic feelings for Wei Shiyuan.
His mother repeatedly reminded him that Wei Shiyuan was the orphan of her good friend and the daughter of a loyal and brave man. If he canceled the engagement, he would destroy the reputation of the Xu family.
It was not until someone from the Wei family came back with the news that the child was taken away by mistake and Wei Shiyuan was not a daughter of the Wei family that Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and cancelled the engagement.
But it has only been a short time since the engagement was broken off, why did my mother bring the young lady from the Wei family over again?
Xu Yi is twenty-two years old this year. He was eleven when the engagement was arranged. He is no longer a child, so how could he fall in love with a ten-year-old girl!
Even though Xu Yi was reluctant, he obeyed his mother's order and went to take a look. His mother said it was just a look, not an engagement.
If there is a real affinity between them, then continue the marriage. If not, then find another marriage for Miss Wei.
Xu Yi already had the answer in his mind.
Just like that, when they were outside the wall, the Third Madam's personal maid said, "Master, Miss Wei is waiting for you in the pavilion."
Xu Yi walked inside reluctantly, and Yaoguang on the other side also turned around.
When their eyes met, Xu Yi quickly recognized that Yaoguang was the little girl who knocked him out when he was practicing sword outside the house that night.
The man who broke his own sword with his fingers!
"Why are you here!" Xu Yi stepped forward, his eyes full of vigilance.
"I walked here." Yaoguang said generously.
Yaoguang discovered this when she came to Xu's house. She had been to Xu's house once before, but that time was at night, and she knocked someone unconscious.
So after a while, a maid hurried to the inner house and found the third lady who was busy preparing for the birthday banquet. There were many guests in the mansion today, and the ladies in the inner house were busy.
"Madam... Madam, something big has happened...something bad has happened!" The little maid ran over, panting.
Seeing this, the Third Madam recognized the little maid as the one she had sent to the pavilion. She stopped what she was doing and asked with concern, "What happened to Yi'er? Why are you so noisy?"
"Master, Master was pinned to the ground by...Miss Wei..."
Before the little maidservant could finish her words, the Third Lady was overjoyed that the progress was so fast.
"Press him to the ground and hit him."
The Third Madam was still beaming with joy. Yier said that he didn't like delicate girls. Wasn't this exactly what he wanted?
