The Reborn Girl Wants to Kill Me

Chapter 381 True Gold Rebirth 8

The Marquis's wife sat on the armchair, her beautiful eyes fixed on the door.

Wei Nanxu and Wei Nanzhang focused their attention on Wei Nanxi. The one who was most at a loss and frightened about this matter was their younger sister. They were afraid that she would think too much, so they kept an eye on her emotions.

Wei Nanxi smiled softly at the two of them, indicating that it was okay, but her hands were tightly clasped together in her sleeves, and she felt uneasy.

It was not until the curtain opened and she saw the face that looked 50% like the Marquis's wife walking in that her heart sank and she swayed.

"Little sister."

Wei Nanxu cried out nervously, and Wei Nanzhang also frowned and looked at her worriedly.

"Don't worry, brother. I'm fine. I didn't get enough rest yesterday, so I feel a little dizzy."

At this point, Wei Nanxi's hope finally disappeared.

This face was exactly the same as the one in her dream. Wei Nanxi still remembered that in the dream, when she introduced herself to her mother, she smiled happily and admiringly, saying that her original name was Cheng Tiantian, and since she was back, she wanted her parents to give her a new name.

"Wei Nanyun, this is the name your father and I thought of for you. From now on, you will be the eldest daughter of the Marquis' Mansion, Wei Nanyun."

"Wei Nanyun...my daughter likes it very much. Thank you, mother."

Wei Nanyun (Cheng Tiantian) had already paid her respects. She had a standard posture, a graceful demeanor, and was extremely beautiful. Her eyes were slightly red, which made the Marquis's heart soften.

"Good boy, you have been wronged, come to your mother quickly."

In order not to make Wei Nanyun sad, even though Madam Hou was embarrassed, she still let Wei Nanxi sit at the end in advance. Madam Hou didn't want Wei Nanyun to be hurt as soon as she came back.

Wei Nanyun threw herself into the Marquis's wife's arms, sobbing softly, her cry filled with joy and grievance.

The Marquis's wife held her in her arms and coaxed her softly, then pointed at Wei Nanxu and Wei Nanzhang and said, "Your elder and second brothers took leave today just to wait for you."

Wei Nanyun raised her head from the Marquis's wife's arms and called out in a tender voice, "Big brother, second brother."

Wei Nanxu nodded slightly. Wei Nanzhang was a carefree man. He valued Wei Nanxi and also liked this sister who looked very much like their mother.

He immediately took out the gift he had prepared, which was a gold hairpin inlaid with rubies, which he had specially made, and a coral bracelet. The hairpin was given to Wei Nanyun, and the bracelet was given to Wei Nanxi, giving both sisters equal treatment.

He looked proudly at the house deed that his elder brother took out, and thought to himself that his elder brother still didn't understand girls well enough. Although the house deed was good, it was nowhere near as appealing as beautiful and exquisite jewelry.

Wei Nanyun looked at the meeting gift that was exactly the same as the one from her previous life and sneered inwardly.

The house deed was valuable, but Wei Nanxi had collected so many since she was a child that she probably wasn't interested in it anymore. And the hairpin...

Wei Nanyun thought angrily that after making a hairpin for her, he also didn’t forget to make a bracelet for Wei Nanxi. He was really her good second brother.

She pretended to be surprised, and after accepting the gift, her eyes turned to Wei Nanxi who was sitting quietly.

Her action caused the Marquis's wife's hand to pause slightly, and Wei Nanxu and Wei Nanzhang also quieted down.

"This is...my sister, right?"

Seeing that she looked calm and didn't seem to harbor any resentment, the Marquis's wife relaxed and nodded. "This is Nanxi. The Luoyuan Pavilion that your mother has prepared for you is not far from Nanxi's residence. You two sisters should get along well in the future."

"I met my sister."

Wei Nanxi stood up and saluted, also with a smile on her face. When her eyes met with Wei Nanyun's, undercurrents surged.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door, and the maidservant beside the Marquis's wife came in to report: "Madam, the maidservant beside the old lady came over and said that the old lady is feeling much better today and can already get up and walk around the courtyard."

The Marquis's wife immediately smiled and said, "Okay, let's ask the court doctor to come and take a look. Mother has been ill for three months, and now she is finally feeling better."

As she spoke, she looked at Wei Nanxi with relief in her eyes.

Xier's efforts over the past few days were not in vain. Not to mention that the old lady will remember it, even if it gets out, it will be good for Xier's reputation.

Wei Nanyun was also very happy. She blinked her eyes and pretended to be innocent: "Is grandma sick? She got much better as soon as Yun'er came back. Yun'er is so happy."

The Marquis's wife said, "When your grandmother is fully recovered some other day, I will take you to pay your respects to her."

Wei Nanyun agreed obediently, thinking about how to connect her grandmother's good fortune with her return home.

There has been unrest in Yanjing recently. Ever since the old emperor suddenly vomited blood and fainted in the court, people have been in panic.

The crown prince has the skills, the ability, and the heart of a benevolent monarch, but he cannot withstand the delusions of the other princes. For a while, the ministers took sides, some tried to win over others, and each one was busier than the other.

Wang Beihou didn't come back until it was slightly dark, and he was drunk.

He had already eaten outside, but today was Wei Nanyun's first day home, so he still sat at the table and ate some with her.

He was born into a military family and could not understand the thoughts of girls as well as his wife did. When he took out the gift for Wei Nanyun, he also gave one to his wife and Wei Nanxi.

"This is a new little gadget that's been around in Beijing. It's said that washing hands with it is cleaner than with soap pods. It's very convenient to put in your purse on a daily basis."

Madam Hou’s is in the shape of a plum blossom, while Wei Nanxi and Wei Nanyun’s are in the shape of an orchid, and there is a faint fragrance when you get close to them.

"Thank you, Dad. My daughter likes it very much."

Before Wei Nanxi could speak, Wei Nanyun spoke first.

Wei Nanxi also liked it very much. She said, "Thank you, father." and then put the thing into her purse.

"After this period of time, let your mother take you shopping. If you find anything you like, buy it and choose it yourself."

The Marquis would not be picky about these things. This thing was shown to them by one of his colleagues, who said that his wife at home prepared it for him. Thinking that his daughter was coming back, he was worried about what to give her, and when he heard this, he had an idea.

Of course, it would be too stingy to just give this as a gift, so he waved his hand and gave a hot spring villa to each of Wei Nanyun and Wei Nanxi.

Wei Nanyun's face was almost frozen from smiling, but she was filled with hatred in her heart.

Wei Nanxi, Wei Nanxi, why does Wei Nanxi have a share in everything?

Who is the real lady of this marquis's mansion? Wei Nanxi is such a fake, she will find a way to kick her out sooner or later!

Wei Nanxu's mind was not on these things. He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Dad, is it Minister Li from the Ministry of Revenue who wants to have a drink with you today?"

He felt a little confused when he got the affirmative answer.

Their mansion has never participated in party disputes. Even if they want to support someone, they will support the orthodoxy, and the prince is the orthodoxy.

But Minister Li, who belongs to the Second Prince's faction, has been meeting with my father frequently today. Even if my father is determined, I'm afraid that in the eyes of those who are interested, they will still regard my father as part of the Second Prince's faction.

The Second Prince has always been scheming and petty. If they directly refuse him, they might offend him. After all, the outcome is still undecided. If God is blind and the Second Prince ascends the throne, the Marquis' Mansion will be in trouble if they refuse him and do not give him face.

Seeing that he was worried, the Marquis laughed carefreely.

"Boss, being a fence-sitter at this moment will only end badly for you. The Crown Prince is the legitimate heir, and most of the court supports him, not to mention his brother, the Sixth Prince, who holds military power. If this is acceptable... then my mansion will accept defeat."
