The Demon King’s Crazy Concubine: The Heaven-defying Formation Master

Chapter 23
Wei Ran chuckled in his heart. It would be nice if a large group of relatives and friends who had never met her before and were avoiding her like snakes and scorpions came to add insult to injury. They still miss her?Fortunately, Tian's words were so false and she could say them without blushing or heartbeat. She was embarrassed for her.

Mrs. Wei continued to talk to herself, and at the same time she called the embroiderer familiarly to come over and measure Wei Ran: "You haven't come back before, and mother doesn't know your size. She only prepared some for you based on Tong'er's visual inspection of your height. New clothes, after all, are not as comfortable as tailor-made ones. I specially asked the embroiderer to wait at my house. When you come back and take measurements, we can rush out several new sets tonight."

"But I just came back, so I'm not in a hurry right now?"

"Urgent, of course it's urgent. Jin'er's wedding will be held in a few days, and you will be attending as the eldest sister. Naturally, you have to let everyone see you before the big day. This is also your father's wish." Wei As the lady spoke, she suddenly sighed, her expression suddenly turned sad, and tears immediately came up in her eyes, "You have suffered too much from birth to now. Now that you are home, your father and I will not let anyone else do it." I’ll bully you if I get the chance.”

Mrs. Wei turned away and pretended to touch her tears with a handkerchief.

Wei Ran twitched the corners of his lips. It would be a pity for her acting skills not to be used in dramas.

She said she was meeting relatives, but actually she couldn't wait for everyone to see her laugh, right?

"Mom, I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest first." Wei Ranba blinked and said pitifully, since Tian wanted to act, then she would act with her.

Mr. Tian probably had his own thoughts with her, but he quickly complied with her wishes and let her go back.

Although Mrs. Tian didn't like her in her heart, she still did a perfect job on the surface. The yard arranged for her was not much worse than Wei Tong's in terms of scale and layout. In addition, she was given a yard according to the specifications. On the surface, he is taking care of her daily life, but in fact, he is monitoring her 360 degrees without any blind spots.

However, Wei Ran didn't care at all, this kind of trick was too vulgar for her.

So many things happened in just one day. Not to mention how tired Wei Ran was, he took a comfortable hot bath and then fell asleep on the bed.

She had a nightmare at night, dreaming that Wei Cong died suddenly the day before Wei Jin's wedding. Everyone pointed the finger at her, saying that she had killed her father.

In the dream, she was dragged into the abyss by countless cold hands. No matter how hard she struggled, it was of no avail.
As soon as the scene turned, she was tied to the altar, surrounded by dense crowds of people, all of whom were shouting that they wanted to burn her to death as a witch.

Wei Tong wore a veil and presided over the ceremony. Following her order, everyone threw their torches at her, and the flames soaring into the sky instantly engulfed her whole body.
In the sea of ​​fire, she seemed to see Wei Yixue among the crowd, nestled in Luoyang's arms, proudly provoking her——

Wei Ran, no matter how many times you live your life again, you can never defeat me.

Wei Ran woke up from his nightmare and found that the clothes on his back were soaked.

She hurriedly stood up, poured a glass of water and swallowed it in one gulp, and her trembling heart gradually calmed down.

Just a dream
But this dream is too real.

She looked up and realized that it was already dawn, so she asked someone to bring hot water for washing.Today was not a peaceful day. She had to dress up well and not lose her momentum no matter what.

Many people came to the reception banquet, especially the other four aristocratic families, who all sent representatives of the younger generation to attend the meeting, which can be said to have given the Wei family plenty of face.But anyone with a discerning eye knows that these people are basically here to watch the fun.After all, the incident caused such a big fuss. Who knows that the Wei family has been extremely lucky to have a direct disciple of the Five Elements Master? This is a good thing that many aristocratic families can't get even by burning incense and worshiping Buddha.

But what's even more interesting is that this disciple also offended the academy and the Jin family at the same time. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. Everyone is waiting to get a glimpse of the true face of this legendary Miss Wei!

When Wei Ran was brought to the banquet hall, Mrs. Tian was already accepting congratulations and flattery from all parties with a smile on her face. When she saw her coming, she quickly greeted her warmly: "Ran'er, come here quickly!"

Those who didn't know it were so affectionate thought that Wei Ran was really her biological child.

Standing next to Mr. Tian was a young woman, who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old. She had a red almond-shaped face and a pair of exquisite blue eyes under her eyebrows. She was wearing a lake blue twist-embroidered palace gauze silk satin skirt. On her hands as fair as green onions, she wears a spodumene bracelet, and around her waist is a pink half-moon wave belt. A pair of milky satin and beaded boots are slightly exposed under her skirt. Looking at the temperament of this dress, you can tell which family is favored. The noble daughter is rich.

But the way the woman looked at her was full of inquiry and contempt, which made Wei Ran very uncomfortable.

Wei Ran raised a professional fake smile, walked over slowly, and said with a smile: "Mother, this is..."

"This is the second young lady of the Jin family. I heard yesterday that you were going to hold a reception banquet when you came back from the academy. The second young lady of the Jin family arranged for Chen's class to attend," Tian introduced enthusiastically.

"Are you the girl who threw herself into my brother's arms yesterday?" Jin Xiayao mocked with a bit of disdain before Tian could finish.

What is Brother Zun Yue's status in the Jin family? Is it something that any cat or dog can taint at will?Jin Xiayao was very angry after hearing about the apprenticeship banquet yesterday, and she couldn't wait to teach this lowly servant a lesson.

The originally lively atmosphere around them suddenly cooled down, and the relatives chatting in twos and threes on the side all looked at them in unison, most of them with gloating eyes. After all, to the Wei family, Wei Ran was just an unknown person. Everyone hates the disaster star that appears, and there are many people in the clan waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

"Young Master Jin is a man of heaven, how can I tarnish his reputation at will?" Wei Ran smiled softly, without any trace of anger on his face, and retorted unhurriedly, "Second Miss Jin, please be careful what you say, otherwise Others don't know it, but they think that although Miss Jin Er and Mr. Jin are brothers and sisters, they have a rift in their hearts, so they deliberately ruin their reputations."

Although this is also an era when a woman's reputation is more important than a man's, the Jin family has always maintained itself with nobility, and the heir it has trained, Jin Zunyue, is even more outstanding among them. He has a high self-respect, has a clean eye, and is arrogant. He is a "official" who is self-possessed, so he dismisses those women who are obsessed with him, and does not allow ordinary "lowly" people to get close to him.

Although he loves his sister, he is essentially a selfish person who cherishes his feathers very much. If he knew that Jin Xiayao ignored his reputation in order to attack Wei Ran, he would definitely be furious.

Sure enough, after hearing Wei Ran's words, Jin Xiayao's expression changed obviously.

"Both my brother and my father said that the eldest lady of the Wei family has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. When I saw you today, it turned out to be true. But I see that you are not only sharp-tongued but also courageous. No wonder you can make such a fuss in such a sacred place in the academy. Such an unbearable scene." Jin Xiayao managed to stabilize her momentum and found the right point of attack to attack again.
