Embroidered golden branches

Chapter 24
The two of them didn't say much after that. The night was desolate, the wind was rustling, and the cold wind was blowing. The yard where there were only two of them seemed a little deserted.

In the end, Sang Sang couldn't hold it any longer. She held up the hem of her skirt and walked to the wall, looking up at Wei Cheng.

"At this time, shouldn't you be keeping up with those people? Why did you come to my place?"

"Nothing interesting, just walking around." Wei Cheng answered a little casually.

Sang Sang looked at Wei Cheng, and she didn't know whether it was because he was wearing less clothes or because of the lighting. She felt inexplicably that Wei Cheng was exuding an aura of loneliness.

Although it had not been long since he arrived at the Wei Mansion, Sangsang also knew that Jiang's attitude towards Wei Cheng was very strange.

Everyone else in the Wei family loved Wei Cheng in every possible way, but only Jiang. On the surface, she seemed to love her son very much, but Sangsang accidentally discovered that Jiang actually disliked contact with her son.

She didn't understand the reason, but from the rumors in later generations, Sangsang knew that not all mothers would like their children.

So Wei Cheng noticed Jiang's indifference towards him and was unhappy so he came out to relax?

Thinking of the purse in her hand, Sangsang couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, "Cousin, people, sometimes you can't be too greedy, you can't have it both ways. Sometimes we can look more at what we have instead of thinking about what we don't have. What."

Knowing that Wei Cheng had a weird temper, Sangsang didn't dare to speak too clearly.

Wei Cheng lowered his head and looked at the little girl who was no taller than his shoulders. He curved the corners of his mouth and spoke calmly, obviously she was so young.

He stretched out his hand and patted Sangsang's head, "Little girl, are you using these words to deceive yourself when you stay in this yard?"

Hearing Wei Cheng's ungrateful words, Sangsang couldn't help but roll her eyes. She was wrong. How could a person like Wei Cheng be disappointed because Jiang didn't treat him well?
Seeing Sang Sang turn around and leave, Wei Cheng quickly jumped down from the wall, "I'll take you to a fun place, do you want to go?"

Sangsang really wanted to have the guts to say it, but she had been confined in the yard during this period, and she really felt like her whole body was going moldy.

So after hesitating for two seconds, she agreed.

"Follow me." Wei Cheng dropped these two words and strode away. Sangsang quickly followed behind him.

……

When the fireworks were over, Wei Lingyin realized that Wei Cheng had disappeared at some point.

She couldn't help but frown, where was he?After thinking about it, Wei Lingyin decided to go find him.

Mrs. Wei likes Wei Cheng the most. If she finds out later that Wei Cheng is not here, she will probably be unhappy.

Wei Lingyin originally wanted to go to Wei Cheng's yard, but halfway there, she changed her route and went to the back garden.

As soon as she reached the entrance of the garden, Wei Lingyin saw two familiar figures. She suddenly stopped and grabbed the silk handkerchief in her hand.

Why is the eldest brother with her? !

……

Sang Sang originally followed Wei Cheng out with great interest, but when she found out that the fun place Wei Cheng mentioned was just the back garden of the Wei Mansion, she suddenly lost interest.

"You are so boring." Wei Cheng noticed the change in Sangsang's mood and couldn't help scolding him, and then pointed at the lantern.

Sang Sang looked at it carefully for a few seconds, and then realized that there was actually a lantern riddle hidden inside. But isn't guessing lantern riddles just for Lantern Festival lanterns?Why did the Wei Mansion start doing it so early?
Seemingly seeing through Sangsang's doubts, Wei Cheng explained: "Guessing lantern riddles is a traditional program. Many families will hang out lanterns on that day. If you want to stand out, you can only make a fuss about the lantern riddles. The Wei family can only make up for their shortcomings by being diligent." After speaking, Wei Cheng took off a lantern riddle and handed it to Sangsang's hand, "Try it and see if you can guess it?"

This can be regarded as watching the lantern festival in advance. Sangsang comforted himself before taking the note and reading it.

Wei Lingyin, who was not far away, had a panoramic view of this scene. I don't know if she was too angry, but she actually tore the silk handkerchief in half.

This frightened Wei Lingyin's two maids. Just as they were about to kneel down to apologize, they saw Wei Lingyin turn and leave.

Sang Sang didn't know that Wei Lingyin had been here. At first, Sang Sang was not interested, but after answering several lantern riddles correctly, her interest became more and more intense. Finally, she kept guessing until midnight, and Wei Cheng sent her back to the courtyard.

Perhaps he was tired from shopping, so he fell asleep not long after Sangsang went to bed, and slept until dawn.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. As usual, I have to go to Mrs. Wei to pay New Year greetings. As soon as Sangsang went out, people around Mrs. Wei came to save Sangsang from going.

Of course Mrs. Wei is also a face-saving person. Even if she doesn't want Sangsang to go, she won't speak so harshly.

But no matter how nice she said it, it couldn't change the fact that Mrs. Wei didn't want to see Sangsang.

Sangsang thanked her grandma and then led Luzhi back to the yard.

"Miss Cousin, if word of this gets out, I'm afraid your life will be even more difficult in the future." Lu Zhi said anxiously.

Sangsang sat down at the table calmly, "It doesn't matter, as long as you have money, no matter how hard life is, it's no wonder that you can't go anywhere!"

Luzhi raised his head and looked at Sangsang with bright eyes, "Miss, have you thought of another way to make money?"

"Yes." Sang Sang nodded, saying that it was thanks to Wei Cheng taking her to guess lantern riddles yesterday that she got the inspiration.

The final purpose of weaving and dyeing cloth is to make clothes. Since Sangsang can't do the previous things, why not just jump to the last step?
She can sell the design draft directly. It is small and easy to carry.

Sangsang expressed his thoughts, and both Luzhi and Sequoia thought this method was feasible.

However, it is still the New Year and many shops are not open. It is estimated that we will have to wait a few more days to know whether this method is feasible.

It was the second day of the Lunar New Year in a blink of an eye. Yesterday, he had received the grace of the old lady, but today Sangsang had to pay her respects no matter what.

Unexpectedly, she met Wei Lingyin in the garden. Sangsang originally wanted to avoid it, but Wei Lingyin directly asked two nuns to bring Sangsang to her.

Intuition told Sang Sang that Wei Lingyin was planning to cause trouble again. The injury on her palm was just right, and she didn't want to face Wei Lingyin again.

"Miss, you are the eldest lady of the Wei family. I am just a cousin of the Wei family. Can you be so noble and let me go?" Sangsang looked at Wei Lingyin, her tone was serious as never before.

Wei Lingyin looked at Sang Sang and showed a strange smile, "Sang Sang, I am Wei Cheng's biological sister, and I will not give her up to you!"

Before Sang Sang could figure out what Wei Lingyin meant, she saw Wei Lingyin grabbing her hand and shouting loudly: "Sang Sang, why did you push me?"

puff.

It was the sound of Wei Lingyin and Sang Sang falling into the water!
