Another Happy Ending with the Male Supporting Role Who Saved Me(QT)[MTL]

Chapter 35 The Incredible Brother 5

Wei Chengyue was a little surprised, and also a little surprised that it was as expected, but he was not angry.

　　The Shen family was the richest in the world, and the young master Shen Yuan was not as outrageous as the rumors said. Instead, he was shrewd and sharp, and had far-sighted plans. Compared with the Wei family and Xiao Junlin who secretly colluded and conspired to take his life, Shen Yuan was undoubtedly a much more manly man.

　　But Wei Chengyue was very hesitant. He knew that he was not a smart man. If he made a promise casually, it would put his father and brother in a dilemma. He might as well use his brute force to fight, at least he could leave some clues for his father and brother...

　　Seeing that he was in trouble, Jiang Yanlan smiled instead, "How about this, you just need to speak for me. Whether your father will be interested in the Shen family still depends on the strength and sincerity of the Shen family."

　　How come this sounds like a father choosing a son-in-law for his brother? Wei Chengyue felt a little uncomfortable, but after thinking about it, he agreed.

　　Xiao Junlin hurt him so much, with my father's temper, they would definitely not stay in Changwu City anymore. Chongning had been fighting with my father for more than ten years, and almost every general had a grudge against them, so they would not be able to get anything good if they went there.

　　As for which side Yan Jing and Shen's father would choose, Wei Chengyue was not sure.

　　Wei Chengyue was not sure, but Jiang Yanlan was quite sure. The Shen family had money and food, and Wei Guang would definitely take away some of his loyal subordinates if he broke with Changwu City. He couldn't support these people by himself, so his only choice was to join a wise leader.

　　Back in Yanjing, the old aristocratic families have almost divided up the territory, and the emperor is young and powerless to do anything he wants.

　　Wei Guang was a brave general, and he certainly would not be willing to be suppressed by his relatives and aristocratic families. Moreover, if he was not reused for a long time, the prestige and connections he had accumulated with great difficulty would also be lost in this quagmire, which was not worth it no matter how you looked at it.

　　The Shen family is offering an olive branch at this time with full sincerity, and with Wei Chengyue's defection, it is obvious what Wei Guang and his son will choose...

　　A few days later

　　In a small teahouse beside the official road, many merchants and escorts were sitting inside to enjoy the cool air and rest their feet, and they also ate some dry food with hot tea, which was considered as their lunch.

　　The waiter was busy carrying a large teapot to serve tea, when a donkey cart slowly drove over on the road from the east. The donkey cart was very ordinary, and the man driving it had a wheat-colored complexion, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was wearing a coarse cloth shorts. At first glance, he looked like a farmer with some money.

　　The man parked the donkey cart under a tree and led a young woman with a bun and a long skirt down from the cart. The woman was of medium build, with a medium waist and fair skin. However, she had a small round face, black hair, willow-shaped eyebrows, and a pair of big, watery and bright eyes, which made her quite attractive.

　　A few traveling merchants stared for a few moments, then quickly looked away - they were carrying large quantities of goods and had no interest in getting into trouble because of a peasant woman.

　　Jiang Yanlan led his 'young wife' to the outermost table, bowed and said, "There are no empty tables. Can you two share a table?"

　　One of them, a gentleman who looked like the host, nodded amiably, "Okay, we'll just take a break and leave soon."
