Chapter 63: Lu Weiying Arrives Suddenly (Please Subscribe)

  Suddenly, she heard the sound of Xiao Chengyan's voice, and almost subconsciously, Du Ruo had already quickly stood up. Yuan Dai also got up, just wanting to go out to greet her, when the curtain on that side moved, and Xiao Chengyan had already lifted it and entered directly. Seeing that she came in a hurry, with an even stranger expression on her face, Yuan Dai couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Sister, you've come so hastily, is there something going on outside?"

  In front of Mrs. Du, the three people almost intentionally or unintentionally avoided mentioning the matter of Rui Qin Wang Baili Zhao, but this does not mean that what happened early today did not really happen. Therefore, when seeing Xiao Chengxian's expression, Yuandai's first thought was Rui Qin Wang Baili Zhao.

  Xiao Chengyan smiled wryly and shook her head, but said: "Ninth sister, do you know Lu Weiyin?"

  "Lu Weiying?" Yuandai was taken aback, and hastily asked, "Sister, why did you suddenly mention this person?" She remembered very clearly that when she mentioned Ling Yuanshan to Xiao Chengyan that day, she only said there was such a person, but didn't mention the name Lu Weiying.

  Xiao Chengyan stumbled and sighed: "Is this really Lu Weiyin?"

  Yuan Dai's heart skipped a beat, but she first glanced at Du Ruo. Du Ruo understood and quietly withdrew. After she left, Yuan Dai hastily asked: "Sister, what do you mean by this?" But in her heart, there was an inexplicable premonition.

  Xiao Cheng's smile grew even more bitter: "Lu Weiying... is currently at my older brother's place! My older brother... has asked him to stay in the other courtyard for now!"

  Yan Dai listened in stunned silence for a while before saying: "He... how did he suddenly come here?"

  According to her observations in recent days, Ling Yuexuan has a good impression of Lu Weijing, but it is still within the controllable range. At most, she just compared him with his brother and felt that Lu Weijie was wooden-headed, like a dull gourd ladle, far inferior to Lu Weijie's elegant and refined demeanor. But as for other things, it's not necessarily so. After all, the two of them have only met once so far.

  But now that Lu Weijie has taken the initiative to bump into him, it's hard to say how far things will go if the two of them meet again.

  The two of them stared at each other for a moment, before Yuandai suddenly remembered something and asked: "What about Lu Weijie?"

  Lu Weiying has arrived, will Lu Weijie also come together?

  Xiao Chengyan shook her head and said, "But I didn't know any of this! Just now, I was thinking of something, so I asked Cui Lan to go to my older brother's place and mention it. Originally, there was no other meaning behind it. When Cui Lan went over, my older brother and the others were talking to that Lu Weiyin. Cui Lan told him what I wanted, and my older brother had her tell me that Lu Weiyin would be staying in a separate courtyard for a few days. He also said he was your sixth uncle's nephew. When I heard this name, I felt it wasn't quite right, so I carefully asked Cui Lan again. Cui Lan definitely said that the young master was indeed called Lu Weiyin, not Lu Weijie. Then I asked her a few more questions, saying that the young master was extremely handsome and eloquent when speaking, with a tongue as smooth as flowers! When she told me this, I knew that this person must not be the foolish and stupid one that your tenth sister mentioned!"

  The two exchanged a glance, both with a somewhat trapped and anxious look. After a long while, Yuandai forced a smile and asked again, clinging to her last shred of hope: "Sister, did you ask someone to go and ask if Lu Weijie came too?"

  Xiao Chengyan nodded and said, "I've already sent Cui Lan away! Originally I planned to wait for Cui Lan to come back before coming to talk to you, but sitting alone in the room thinking about this matter made me more and more uneasy, so I decided to come over and discuss it with you first!"

  Yan Dai slightly furrowed her brow and said, "If this Lu Weiying really did come alone, what is he thinking? Is it really just for the plum blossoms on the mountain?" As soon as she gave this reason, she herself felt that it was too far-fetched.

  Xiao Chengying let out a soft snort and said, "Appreciate the flowers? If you have some free time, why not ask my older brother or your sixth brother if they would suddenly take an interest in coming alone to appreciate the flowers?" Yuan Dai heard this and couldn't help but laugh bitterly, for a moment she really didn't know what to say.

  The two sat silently for a moment, and on the other side, Qiaolan had already found her way over. The two called out to Qiaolan to come in. Before she could even stand still, Xiao Chengyan hastily asked: "Who did you ask? What did they say?"

  Cui Lan replied, "I happened to run into Ling Liu Ye when I was out. I thought it would be better to ask him than to ask my family's master, so I stopped him and asked. When he heard that Miss was asking about Lu Wei Jie, he smiled and told me that Lu Wei Jie had come to Beijing to take the imperial examination and was currently studying hard in the Wen Xuan Hall. How could he be here for no reason? Perhaps seeing a hint of disappointment on my face, Liu Ye smiled again and asked me to pass on a message, saying that after leaving Guanyin Mountain, Lu Wei Jie had been studying even harder, determined to become a top scholar and return in glory to marry, so the young ladies should set their minds at ease and not think wild thoughts!"

  Yan Dai's face changed as soon as she heard this, and she was speechless for a moment. She knew that Ling Yuqing must have misunderstood, thinking that Ling Yuxuan had sent someone to ask questions in a roundabout way, which is why he would respond like this. Xiao Chengyan on the side couldn't help but roll her eyes.

  Cui Lan continued, "I heard Sixth Master's words and didn't dare ask more questions. I just pretended to be foolish and asked one sentence: 'Is it true that Mr. Lu Weijie came to Pingjing for the imperial examination? Then won't Mr. Lu Weiyin also take the imperial examination?' Sixth Master smiled after hearing this, but didn't say anything else. He only said that Mr. Lu Weiyin came to Pingjing just for sightseeing, and as for taking the imperial examination, it was just a high-sounding excuse!"

  Yan Dai heard this and raised an eyebrow, unconsciously turning her head to take a glance at Xiao Chengyan.

  Xiao Chengyan also furrowed her brow, thinking for a moment before turning to Yuandai with a slightly inquiring tone: "This Lu Weiyang seems to be somewhat off!"

  Yuan Dai said: "I also feel that something is wrong! I don't know if sister knows anyone in Tanzhou, if possible, it's best to ask around!"

  Xiao Chengxian thought for a moment, then said somewhat reluctantly: "Hu Jingwei, the daughter of Hu Tingzhi, the prefect of Jingzhao, was still on good terms with me before she got married. She even sent me a letter recently! Her husband's family is in Tanzhou, and I'll write back to her tomorrow and mention this matter along the way!"

  Yuandai heard this and couldn't help but feel a little relieved. After a moment, she couldn't help but laugh again: "As for tenth sister's matter, she herself doesn't seem to mind, yet the two of us are worrying about it!"

  Xiao Chengxian smiled upon hearing this, just as she was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from outside: "What's my business? Why don't I feel that way?" The two were taken aback for a moment, and then the inner curtain moved, and Ling Yuansen walked in with a puzzled expression.

  Yan Dai and the other two were stunned, and for a moment they were speechless. Ling Yuan Xun looked at them in confusion, and finally asked again: "What's going on? What's wrong with you?"

  Xiao Cheng smiled wryly and said straightforwardly: "Tenth sister, there's another guest in the other courtyard!"

  Ling Yuexuan didn't think much of it and sat down beside Yuan Dai, asking: "Which esteemed guest is it?"

  Yuandai coughed lightly and said, "As for this person, tenth sister has actually seen him before!"

  Ling Yu Xuan said in a daze: "Who have I seen? But who is it? Besides my family, Xiao Jie, Xiao Gege, Ah, and also An Qin Wang and Rui Qin Wang whom I met today, I really haven't...” She suddenly stopped talking here, her face turned very strange, after a while, she carefully asked: "Is... Lu... that... that stupid melon?" She wanted to say Lu Wei Jie but felt the three words were difficult to say out loud, hesitated for a long time before barely spitting out the three words "stupid melon".

  She had barely uttered these three words when she could no longer hold back her blushing face.

  Yuan Dai saw her like this, and couldn't help but feel more helpless. After exchanging a glance with Xiao Chengyan, it was still Xiao Chengyan who spoke up: "Although not perfect, it's not far off!" She tried her best to say these words in a joking tone, but there wasn't a hint of joy in her voice.

  On the other side, Ling Yuexuan had already let out an unbelievable cry: "Is that Lu Weiyin?"

  No one can tell what expression is on Ling Yuexuan's face at this moment, and what she is thinking in her heart. But Yuan Dai knows that in Ling Yuexuan's heart, there must be some disappointment. Only because the person who came was Lu Weiyin and not Lu Weijie. Or perhaps, there is also a hint of joy, still because the person who came was Lu Weiyin and not Lu Weijie.

  With a wry smile, Xiao Cheng and Ling Yu Xuan exchanged a glance, and both suddenly felt a sense of helplessness. If after visiting Guanyin Mountain, Ling Yu Xuan had only a slight good impression of Lu Wei Ying, then this time on the Green Lotus Ridge trip, it was highly likely that this thin layer of good feeling would deepen further, and the possibility of causing trouble in the future might also increase greatly.

  She sighed silently, and Yu Dai was about to change the subject when suddenly there were joyful shouts from outside: "It's snowing! It's snowing! The snow is really coming down heavily!"

  Yan Dai had not yet made any move when Xiao Chengyan already quickly walked to the window, raised her hand and pushed it open.

  Outside the window, snowflakes are swirling and dancing, large ones like goose feathers, small ones like shredded silk, all in a light and airy white color. Before people can even blink, they feel that the eaves and treetops have already been lightly brushed with a layer of white.

  Xiao Chengxian gazed at the snow for a long time, and suddenly said: "If this snow had fallen earlier, it would have been even better!"

  As soon as Yu Dai heard this, she knew that if the snow had fallen earlier, Lu Weiying might not have gone up the mountain, and naturally, he wouldn't have caused Ling Yuanxuan's heart to be in such disarray. She understood what Xiao Chengyan meant, but Ling Yuanxuan didn't think that way.

  She smiled and said, "Sister Xiao, do you think that if the snow had come earlier, Auntie Xiao wouldn't have been able to get down the mountain, and would have stayed in this separate courtyard with you for a few more days?"

  Xiao Chengxian couldn't help but explain her concerns to her, forcing a smile and saying: "Sister is indeed delicate!" In her heart, she didn't welcome this snow at all. After all, she had put in a lot of thought to invite Yu Dai over, not just to accompany her to admire the snow and plum blossoms in this separate courtyard. But with this snow, her plan to enter the capital would have to be delayed. And now, there was also the matter of Lu Weiyin.

  It's still the Xiang family's other courtyard, and if there's an unexpected event in the future, I'm afraid both the Lu and Ling families will have to come to the Xiang family to discuss it. Xiang Chengyan thought about this and unknowingly added a few more worries to her heart. After being stunned for a moment, Xiang Chengyan finally said: "The two younger sisters are watching the snow here, but I suddenly remembered something and need to go to the front to find my older brother to discuss something!"

  After saying this, Xiao Chengyan didn't care about Yuan Dai and the others, and got up to leave with Qiaolan in a hurry.
