When Yuan Buwei rushed to Shangguan's house, she saw Meng Zhuxin and Meng Qiongyue were there, and her heart immediately rose to her throat.

"Sister-in-law."

"Young lady."

"Are you two okay?" Yuan Buwei held each of their hands and looked them up and down.

"We are fine, but the third young master Shangguan is seriously injured. The doctor who treated him before was driven away by him. We had no choice but to ask my sister-in-law to come over." Meng Zhuxin explained.

"Why is he injured?"

Meng Qiongyue touched her nose and said, "This is a long story. Madam, you should go and see him."

"it is good."

When Yuan Buwei walked into the room and went to the bed, Shangguan Que, who was lying on the bed, suddenly became excited: "Mrs. Lu, why is it you?"

Yuan Buwei, who had seen countless people, knew from Shangguan Que's actions that his injuries were probably on his back and buttocks.

"Don't move, Third Young Master. Be careful not to hurt your wound." Yuan Buwei opened the medicine box. "If you find it inconvenient, find a servant and I'll tell him how to clean your wound."

"I'm fine, just a minor injury."

"If a minor injury is not treated, it will develop into a serious injury." Yuan Buwei has already prepared everything necessary.

"I……"

Shangguan Que wanted to explain, but facing Yuan Buwei's smile, he couldn't say no.

Finally, his wounds were treated by the servant and medicine was applied.

The originally hot feeling was replaced by a cool feeling.

Shangguan Que's originally tense nerves also relaxed.

During this interval, Yuan Buwei also found out how Shangguan Que was injured.

"Third Young Master, this incident just happened suddenly. I apologize to you. When you get better, I will let you fight back." Meng Qiongyue was very straightforward and apologized on her own initiative without Shangguan Que telling her.

But all he got was a cold snort and a roll of eyes from Shangguan Que.

"Qiongyue, don't bother with him. You hit well and brilliantly. If it weren't for Meng Qiongyue's words, Shangguan Jing might never realize what her brother was thinking. "My second sister and I have suffered a lot outside, so we told each other that we must not let our third brother suffer."

"Master Shangguan, I'm going to say something you don't want to hear. It's true that you love your brother, but as a man, if you don't suffer a little and experience the dangers of human nature, will you be able to hand over the family business you have worked hard for to your brother in the future?" Yuan Buwei admired Shangguan Jing a little. "If it were me, I would definitely not be willing to do so."

"I can't bear to do that either." Meng Qiongyue, who echoed the question, felt Shangguan Que's murderous gaze and immediately changed her words, "I mean, what you are doing will put a lot of pressure on the Third Young Master, Madam, don't you think so?"

"Well... it does bring a lot of pressure to the Third Young Master, but..." Yuan Buwei glanced at Meng Qiongyue, then looked at Shangguan Que, "The Third Young Master is almost at the age to get married. If he gets married earlier and has a wife and children, maybe he will mature."

"Mrs. Lu, what you said really hits the nail on the head." Shangguan Jing didn't understand Yuan Buwei's implication and thought she was giving her serious advice. "Three years ago, I helped him look for unmarried women in the capital, but he didn't like any of them. Later, when I couldn't find anyone suitable in the capital, I went to other provinces to look for one. He said that people from other provinces have different customs from those in the capital, and that they would have to live comfortably if they married here. He also said that if I go back to my parents' home, it would take at least eight years to go back and forth. What do you think of him..."

"Cough cough cough..."

Shangguan Que coughed a few times, interrupting Shangguan Jing who was complaining: "Eldest sister, what's there to talk about when it's already happened?"

Shangguan Jing didn't want to do that, but when she met Meng Qiongyue and Yuan Buwei who were to her taste, if she didn't have so much to do, she would definitely sit down with them and talk about her ideals in life.

"The Third Young Master needs to rest now. Let's let him have a good rest, shall we?" Yuan Buwei saw from Shangguan Jing's eyes her surging desire to talk. It was rare that Meng Qiongyue was here too, so naturally she had to seize the opportunity.

"Yes, Master Shangguan, we can go out and talk so that the Third Young Master can have a good rest."

"That's right. Third brother hasn't had a good rest in this period of time. Please stay for dinner. We have some new seafood arriving today."

"Then I am lucky to come here today? I can even eat fresh seafood?" Yuan Buwei was very excited. "Zhu Xin, Qiong Yue, Patriarch Shangguan is very knowledgeable. If she said one more word to us, we could have saved ten years of detours. Patriarch Shangguan, the three of us are shamelessly staying here today. Please don't think we are annoying."

"How could that be? It's my honor that you guys have the honor to stay. It just so happens that Fu'er is back today. Last time I mentioned you to her, she has always wanted to meet you. Today finally gives her the chance." Shangguan Jing pushed open the door. "Come on, let's go to the study and talk. Third brother, you should have a good rest. If you need anything, tell the servants."

"Hey...Elder sister, it's not..."

Shangguan Que originally wanted to show off, but by the time he reacted, the four people had already disappeared.

What's the situation?

Was he just so magnificently... ignored?

Night falls.

The largest dining room in the Shangguan family has a great atmosphere.

Shangguan Jing's younger sister, Shangguan Fu, is a very straightforward person. She doesn't have many hobbies, and drinking is one of them.

Unfortunately, her eldest sister and third brother could not drink much, and when they asked other people to drink, they either flattered them or played tricks on them.

So she seldom had a good drink.

But today she was lucky to meet Meng Qiongyue, who was also good at drinking and good at having fun.

The two were polite at first, but later they got more interested and stood up to play finger-guessing games and drink.

Shangguan Jing knew that her sister must have suffered a lot of grievances while attending meetings outside, and drinking was one of her ways to vent.

So I didn't stop him, I just watched silently.

"Master Shangguan, I can see that you and your sister both like Qiongyue very much." Yuan Buwei poured wine for Shangguan Jing, "And I think your brother also likes Qiongyue very much."

"To be honest with Madam Lu, during the day, I saw Qiong Yue pushing my third brother into a water tank and whipping his butt with a branch. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't see the sun tomorrow." Shangguan Jing still finds it magical when she thinks back to that daytime scene. "Xiao Que has been thoughtful since he was young. He usually won't say anything when you ask him something, or he'll start arguing with me when I get anxious. Today, when Qiong Yue said that, I realized..."

Yuan Buwei heard Shangguan Jing's voice choking with sobs, and immediately comforted her: "You should be happy. Although your brother is rebellious, his heart is with you and the Shangguan Mansion."

"Yes, so at that moment, I felt relieved." Shangguan Jing smiled, and then took out a piece of paper from her bosom, "Mrs. Lu, take a look at this."

Yuan Buwei was startled and looked at Shangguan Jing in confusion: "What is this?"
