Chapter 144 Thoughts
"Thank you for your engagement, old lady. It's late now, I'll go back first."

Jia Wei looked at Yuanchun again and said calmly, "I wonder how your injury is? Have you recovered? Have you got any underlying illness? Why don't you stop by the East Palace and stay overnight? I will help you with your treatment."

Yuanchun's heart trembled, and she thought of the embarrassing scene in the palace and those rebellious hands, and she felt very panicked!
Then she thought that she was seriously injured before, so she had to deal with it temporarily. But Jia Wei was about to get engaged now, so it would not be good to do this. She should avoid suspicion.

She was about to say no, but Grandmother Jia said, "Your elder sister's injury has improved a lot, but she still coughs up blood occasionally, and her chest hurts at night, and she can't sleep well. Brother, you are a capable person. You can cure your uncle Lin. I will have to trouble you to take care of your elder sister's injury."

Jia Wei looked at Yuanchun, who was blushing, and said with a smile, "What are you talking about, old lady? My elder sister and I are family, so why bother me?"

After hearing this, Jia Mu burst into laughter. It was great that Jia Wei was willing to get close to the people in the West Mansion. These were all favors. When she died in the future, Jia Wei would take care of the West Mansion for these favors.

"Big girl, hurry up and follow Brother Yu. After all, you have a courtyard to live in the East Palace, which is more respectable than an old woman like me."

After leaving the palace, Yuanchun lived in the East Palace, but after Jia Wei went south for two months, he returned to the West Palace to live permanently, which means that she had fixed courtyard residences in both palaces.

Having said this, Yuanchun had absolutely no reason to refuse. She just made up her mind that she would never let her younger brother act recklessly like he did in the past tonight!

She stood up and bowed, "Grandfather, my brother and I will leave now. You should also rest early."

"Well, let's go!" Jia's mother shouted happily outside, "Yuanyang, please see my son off for me."

"Eh!"

In the dark night, Xiangling and Qingwen walked in front with lanterns. When they left the yard, a strong woman had prepared a carriage and a sedan chair.

Yuanchun stood beside Jia Wei with her harp and felt her cheeks getting hot. Fortunately, it was dark and no one could see clearly.

"Big sister, please go first. I want to talk to Sister Yuanyang for a few words."

"Yes." Yuanchun nodded, walked over and sat in the sedan chair.

Jia Wei took Yuanyang's hand and walked to the side. Yuanyang asked in a low voice: "Why don't you leave? What are you talking to me about?"

Jia Wei pinched her shoulders and said with a smile: "You saw the old lady's reaction. I also made it clear in front of everyone that you will be mine sooner or later."

"How dare you say that, Second Master? You just made a joke and left, saving me from being laughed at by them." Yuanyang lowered her head. Although she complained, she still felt a little bit of love in her heart.

"Who dares to laugh at you? Tell me, and I'll take care of her." Jia Wei pulled her closer, hugged Yuanyang's waist and rubbed it, "You should come to the East Palace often in the future, and come to me if you have any problems, understand?"

"Um……"

"Okay, that's all I have to say. Come on, give me a kiss and I'll let you go. Otherwise, I'll carry you back tonight."

"What are you doing again?" Yuanyang was shocked.

She hesitated for a while, but seeing that Jia Wei had no intention of letting go, she had no choice but to lean forward and kiss him. Their lips touched and then separated, like a dragonfly touching the water.

"You're so good. I'm leaving now, and you can go back too."

The two separated, Jia Wei got on his horse and took Yuanchun back to the Bo's Mansion.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Cuiguo there to greet him. Jia Wei slapped her hard and asked, "Where the hell have you been? I went back to the courtyard today, but I didn't see you."

Cuiguo covered her head and said aggrievedly, "When the master returned to the courtyard this afternoon, I went to the garden to deliver cash and check the construction schedule." "Oh, you are in charge." Jia Wei waved his hand, "Take them two back."

Cuiguo, Xiangling and Qingwen returned to the courtyard. Yuanchun also got off the sedan chair and went to her courtyard together.

"Big sister, there are not enough maids in this courtyard. It's too lonely. How about I ask Sister-in-law You to send a few more people?"

"Don't bother me, brother. I'm used to being quiet. I just need a girl to serve me. In Baoyu's courtyard, there are maids everywhere. It's noisy and uncomfortable."

Yuanchun was already thinking that she should come to the East Palace less often in the future. Since she was not going to live there permanently, why would she need so many maids? Naturally, she refused.

"Too."

Jia Wei and Yuanchun sat down. He glanced at Baoqin who was standing by the side and said, "You must be tired at this late hour. Go down and rest."

Baoqin glanced at Yuanchun. It was late at night, and they were alone. She must stay by the side. But it was always like this when she treated patients before. Besides, this was the Bo's house. Who dared to disobey Jia Wei?
"Yes." Baoqin responded, adjusted the wick, turned the oil lamp brighter, and left the room.

When Yuanchun heard the sound of the wooden door closing, her heart skipped a beat.

The scene of the previous treatment appeared in front of her eyes, and she panicked even more. She quickly calmed herself down and said in a deep voice: "Brother, my injury is almost healed. I just need to check my pulse again. No need... to do it like before."

Jia Wei listened and pinched his palm, as if savoring the soft touch...

"Brother Yu?" Seeing that Jia Yu didn't say anything, Yuanchun called softly.

Jia Wei came back to his senses and met Yuanchun's uneasy eyes, "Why has my elder sister become much colder to me since I returned to Beijing?"

Yuanchun was startled, her face a little flustered, and she said hurriedly: "What are you talking about, brother? How could I be cold..."

"Is it because of my upcoming marriage?" Jia Wei looked straight into her eyes, "Big sister is unhappy."

Yuanchun's face changed in shock, and she began to speak nonsense for a moment:
"What did my brother say... I didn't... My brother's marriage is a good thing, how could I not be happy..."

Yuanchun lost her ability to think and did not know the deeper meaning of Jia Wei's words.

"I like the elder sister..." Jia Wei suddenly said, hugging Yuanchun's soft body, "The elder sister also likes me, right?"

boom!
Jia Wei's words exploded in Yuanchun's head, shocking her like a thunderbolt in spring. Yuanchun's brain almost shut down, and she was hugged tightly by Jia Wei, and she didn't react at all for a while...

Jia Wei has already sensed the change in Yuanchun's attitude. He knows that there are very few women in this era who do not care about secular etiquette. Since they are from the same family, there is naturally no possibility for that.

If he waits until he gets married and Yuanchun calms down completely and makes up her mind, Jia Wei's chances will be slim.

So Jia Wei wanted to seize the opportunity, cut the Gordian knot, and take Yuanchun away in one go, so as to avoid more troubles...

After a few breaths of silence, Yuanchun finally reacted and pushed Jia Wei's chest with force, saying angrily, "Brother Wei, what are you crazy about?"

Jia Wei held her tightly, and she continued, "Let me go, or my sister will be angry!"

Jia Wei put his arm around Yuanchun's shoulders and looked her in the eye: "I just want to ask one question, are you interested in me, elder sister?"
