The Princess Wei Yang (106+)

Chapter 158 - Many Traps - Part 1

The funeral was handled very smoothly. Although Madam Sun fainted from crying during the funeral, General Sun was still reasonable and knew that this matter had nothing to do with the Li family. He just gritted his teeth and swore that within a month he would find out the murderer behind the scenes.

Outside the house, the rain drummed against the windows, making a pitter-pattering sound. Li Wei Yang was sitting in the room, holding embroidery work in her hands. Bai Zhi brought over a plate of fragrant snacks, glanced at her, and put them on the small table, not daring to disturb her casually. Since it was getting late, Mo Zhu was busy making the bed in the inner room. Seeing that Li Wei Yang looked tired, Bai Zhi lit some candles and whispered: "Miss, it's already late, why aren't you resting?"

Li Wei Yang slowly embroidered the golden carp under the hibiscus flower, and said in a calm tone: "I'll go to bed after embroidering these last few stitches."

Bai Zhi looked at Li Wei Yang and couldn't help but feel strange. In the past few days, Li Wei Yang had been so calm it was alarming. Madam Sun made a big fuss at the Li family and was forcibly taken back by General Sun. Even so, the young lady did not come forward and just embroidered quietly in her room. However, the young lady clearly said that she would track down and kill the second young lady's murderer. Furthermore, although Li Wei Yang did not deliberately get close to Sun Yanjun on most days, every time she came to this yard, Bai Zhi could see that the young lady was really happy.

But she didn't understand why the young lady could be so calm now.

Mo Zhu made the bed and came out to see that Li Wei Yang had no intention of taking a rest. She couldn't help but say: "Miss, doing this by the candlelight will hurt your eyes. Let's do it during the day tomorrow." She was also obviously confused, because Li Wei Yang is not a person who likes to do needlework, and in the past, she would sit and read, and rarely touch needlework. Of course, this does not mean that Li Wei Yang does not know how to embroider, but she does not have much interest in female arts, so even Li Minzhi's clothes are left to the maids to do. She is so indifferent to her own brother, who is the thing in her hand embroidered for?

Li Wei Yang didn't answer. Mo Zhu was stunned for a while and then asked: "Miss, are you embroidering a child's bellyband?"

Bai Zhi glared at her and signaled her not to ask any more random questions. Then she walked up and gave Li Wei Yang some tea, saying: "Miss, if you need it, I can prepare one."

Li Wei Yang thought for a while and said, "No, this has to be done by oneself to be considered as one's heart." She quickly put away the needle, shook the red bellyband in her hand, looked at it for a moment, and asked Bai Zhi: "The embroidery, is it good?"

Bai Zhi took one look and understood. She nodded and said, "Miss's needlework is very good." Mo Zhu looked aside and became even more confused.

Li Wei Yang ordered Mo Zhu, "Bring the brazier."

In this weather, it's not time to use the brazier yet. Mo Zhu stood there stunned for a moment, watching Bai Zhi wink at her, and then she realized: "This slave will go now!" She just walked to the door, but Zhao Yue, who was originally guarding outside, suddenly came in with a brazier and placed it in front of Li Wei Yang. Li Wei Yang touched the bellyband in her hand, smiled, and then threw the bellyband into the fire. She watched the tongue of flames roll the little bellyband in. Soon, the bellyband embroidered with lotus leaves, flowers, and koi was consumed by flames.

Mo Zhu said distressedly: "Miss, what are you doing! You put so much effort to make it!" She was obviously not as insightful as Bai Zhi and Zhao Yue.

However, Li Wei Yang did not get angry, and just said lightly: "Give it to my little nephew."
