Kneel down and beg to return to the field

The crisp sound of the dishes falling to the ground awakened the astonished Aunt Wei, but at this moment she couldn't care less about cleaning up the mess on the ground.Grabbing Wei Lai's arm, Aunt Wei asked with disbelief, "A Lai, what did you just... say?!"

Aunt Wei's reaction was not beyond Wei Lai's expectations, it was even better than she had imagined, at least she could calmly ask her to continue talking.So Wei Lai pursed his lips slightly, and continued to explain: "He Zhi is the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, and we got engaged by accident when we were in the capital. At that time, she didn't know my identity."

In terms of knowledge, Aunt Wei who has been in this small town all her life, let alone He Zhi, is much worse than Wei Lailai.But people are getting older and have experienced many things. That experience is not comparable to that of young people, so even though she was not at peace, Aunt Wei still grasped the main point of Wei Lai's words: "I didn't know at that time, Does she know who you are now?"

Wei Lai's identity is a secret, although it is not a big deal, but for their mother and son, it is a matter of their lives.Aunt Wei taught her to protect this secret since she was a child, and she has always done a good job, but in the end, it was she who told He Zhi the secret herself, and entrusted her and her mother's life to He Zhi's hands.

It is always wrong to lie, but the truth is about the lives of two people.Wei Lai can entrust his life to others, but he is not qualified to ask his mother to accompany him to take risks.So facing Aunt Wei at this moment, Wei Lai felt guilty and guilty: "Mother, she insisted on going back to her hometown with me, so when I was in Qizhou Mansion the day before yesterday, I told her everything."

Wei Lai thought that Mrs. Wei would be angry and panicked, but in fact, the old man with a vicissitudes of life just sighed a long time, then waved his hands and said: "Well, you can't hide it anyway, so it's good to say it. Otherwise, you will hurt others." The girl is forever."

Hearing this, Wei Lai breathed a long sigh of relief, but then a trace of melancholy rose in his heart.

She knew that she liked He Zhi, and it was no longer the kind of liking among friends, but let alone whether this feeling could be responded to, at least she would not be expected to agree with it.Just like her mother, she only felt that she was hurting He Zhi by doing this, but never thought that the two of them really had any emotional entanglements, and that they might be together in the future.

In front of him was his close relative who was connected by blood, and also the closest and most trusted person in his life, Wei Lai suddenly felt a little fragile in his heart.It's a pity that some things can't be said now, so she can only ask: "Mother, do you think Miss He will forgive me?"

They were all engaged, but on the way home with their fiancé, they suddenly found out that their fiancé was a woman. I'm afraid no one would accept this matter so easily.According to the normal situation, if the two of them would turn against each other immediately, it would be normal for the fiancée to use any means to retaliate.

However, there seemed to be some exceptions between He Zhi and Wei Lai, and even Aunt Wei who knew the whole story when they met for the first time also saw it.Because although He Zhi's attitude was a little cold, there was no resentment in her eyes.And it has been two days, she, a young lady of the Shangshu Mansion, did not leave in anger, did not retaliate, and even continued to follow Wei Lai back!

Aunt Wei didn't think that He Zhi followed Wei Lai home at this time to find the way to find a place, and then to take revenge on their family.So in her mind, there was only one reason for He Zhi's attitude now - this girl was kind-hearted, and she probably had some friendship with Alai before, so she probably didn't intend to pursue it too much under her soft heart.

Seeing that Wei Lai was in a state of panic, Aunt Wei thought about it, so she said the same thing, which was a little comforting.Naturally, Wei Lai also thought of these things, but she was a little unconfident after all, so she also wanted to hear affirmation from other people.

Now that he really heard the same answer from his mother, Wei Lai was truly relieved.It seems that she is not self-indulgent, and there is still a turning point for this matter.

Seeing that Wei Lai obviously relaxed after hearing what he said, Aunt Wei didn't want to ask any more questions.Lunch time is almost over now, it would be too rude to let the guests continue to wait hungry for their mother and son to gossip.What's more, this guest is not an ordinary person, it is their Wei family who owes each other.

So, these days, it's better to treat Miss He better, even if it's compensation and apology for Alai.

※※※

Aunt Wei wanted to treat He Zhi better, and sure enough she treated her very well.From basic necessities of life to daily necessities, he tried his best to take care of He Zhi in every aspect, even if the conditions in this small town were limited, he tried not to wrong her.With such an attitude, those who don't know may be able to explain why Zhicai is her own daughter who has been away from home for many years, and Wei Lai is an outsider.

At the beginning, Aunt Wei did this out of compensation and apology, but later she really fell in love with He Zhi.As Miss Shangshu, she does not have the arrogance of the daughters of ordinary rich and noble families, and her words and deeds are more than generous. Even if the Wei family is sorry for her, she is still respectful and polite when facing her elders, without any resentment or perfunctory.

How can a woman with such a good temperament not please the elders?

On the other hand, He Zhi felt melancholy facing Aunt Wei.Before returning to her hometown with Wei Lai, she had actually been planning to "please her mother-in-law" in advance.It's a pity that the world is unpredictable, Wei Lai's mother is indeed easy to get along with, even if she never deliberately pleases, the relationship between the two of them "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law" is very good these days, but who knows that her fiance has a problem...

With the current situation, He Zhi could more or less guess Aunt Wei's psychology.But even so, she couldn't help but feel a little moved.Because she could see that Aunt Wei was not afraid of her revenge, she just wanted to make up for it at first, and later she really liked to love her.This feeling is so pure that people can't refuse it and can't vent their anger. They can only accept and reciprocate silently.

Having been with Aunt Wei for a long time, sometimes He Zhi would even think, if Wei Lai is really a man, then it might be her great fortune to have such an easy-going mother-in-law, right?

Unfortunately, if is only if.

Two days after Wei came home, he said goodbye to his mother, and set up several banquets in the only inn in the town for the neighbors who had helped take care of Mrs. Wei all these years. The life of the Wei family soon resumed. Calm was restored.

After returning home, Wei Lai stopped practicing martial arts in the morning, but helped her mother make tofu in the yard early in the morning.Aunt Wei's tofu stall didn't open until after Wei Lai left, so she's been used to doing it since she was a child.When she first arrived at the military camp, her strength and endurance, which were no less than men's, had been honed since she was a child.

The mother and daughter naturally returned to the pattern of seven years ago, especially Wei Auntie is not in good health now, and Wei Lai doesn't let her do anything more.Thick and heavy ones are naturally not allowed to be touched, only light ones are made.

"Azhi is a good boy, but it's a pity that you have dragged him down." Aunt Wei held a pot of soybeans, sprinkled them into the small holes in the stone mill from time to time, and said to Wei Lai when she had nothing to do: " By the way, what are you going to do in the future? What did Ah Zhi say?"

Wei Lai's grinding hand paused for a moment, but the force of inertia led her to continue the movement just now, so her pause at this moment was not noticed by Aunt Wei.Wei Lai didn't hear what the mother said, and she only pushed the heavy stone mill a couple of times before she lowered her head and replied sullenly: "Jin Rui said, after we return to Beijing, we will dissolve the engagement." .”

"Disengagement? That's right, it's a good thing you haven't gotten married yet, otherwise, Alai, you would have really ruined the girl's life." Aunt Wei said that she was lucky, but there was a hint of regret on her face.
