Chapter 1185: Snatching People 2 (Thanks to the book friend "Xuehua's Reward" for the extra chapter)
"Not really. We all knew what to do. It was just that the commotion was quite big, and my sisters were still in their rooms listening very carefully."
Manbao asked excitedly: "Is the divorce successful?"
Yin Huo shook his head. "Your Majesty acted as a go-between and invited Duke Su and Duke Chen to the palace for a heart-to-heart talk. The two families reconciled. Duke Chen took the Crown Prince to Duke Su's mansion to apologize and took the Crown Prince's wife back. Now the child is twelve years old. In two or three years, he will be able to enter the Imperial Academy and become our junior."
Manbao looked disappointed after hearing this, and Fu Wenhua was also a little disappointed.
Yin Huo found this amusing and asked him, "Do you want your sister to divorce you?"
Fu Wenhua thought about it and shook his head, "Divorce may not be a good thing for my sister."
Manbao said, "Second sister always has her own ideas. You should ask her about this kind of thing. You want to snatch her out. Have you asked her?"
Fu Wenhua blinked.
Manbao said: "Go ask her, she agreed, we have manpower available at any time."
"I'm going to see her?"
Manbao checked the time, stood up and said, "Forget it, I'll go and check on her while I'm at it. I wonder if the Yue family gave her any trouble yesterday?"
Bai Shan stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
Bai Erlang was extremely disgusted. "You just accompanied her to the prison this morning. You can't treat a disease, so can't you let her go by herself?"
Bai Shan said calmly: "No."
Shirojiro:......
Bai Shan then turned to Fu Wenhua and said, "Let's go and take a look. If your second sister agrees, you can start after we come out."
Fu Wenhua was apprehensive. "So soon? I don't even know if Butler Xu has rented the house yet."
Bai Shan said, "This matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later. We need to catch them by surprise. I believe that with your housekeeper's ability, we can definitely rent the house today."
Knowing that they had offended the King of Yizhou and the Queen Mother, he still dared to let Fu Wenhua come to them to make friends. Such a housekeeper is either foolish and bold, or has real courage.
Judging from his response at Yue's house yesterday, he was obviously not the former, but the latter.
It's just a matter of finding a house. The real estate agent has already introduced one to him. The Fu family doesn't want to live there for a year or more. They will only rent it for a month, so there's no need to be so picky.
If it were him, this kind of short-term rental could be arranged in half a day. What's so difficult about it?
Yin Huo's eyes sparkled, and he smiled, "It's not hard to find someone. If you've decided, I'll send Changshou back to get them right away."
Because he was weak and his sisters were strong, there were many servants and women in their family who were capable of fighting.
Otherwise, his sisters wouldn't always do things like blocking people's cars.
When Bai Erlang heard this, he immediately jumped up and said, "Then I will go with you."
Bai Dalang hesitated, wanting to go but not daring to. He stole a glance at the backyard and whispered, "If the master knew..."
Bai Shan said, "So you have to wait until Manbao and I come out before you go in. Erlang, you also have to stay far away and don't show up easily, okay?"
Bai Dalang whispered, "Then I'll go with you. I happen to want to go to the bookstore to see if there are any new books."
The three sisters and brothers looked at Bai Dalang with contempt. The Yue family was in the outer city, but they had a bookstore in the inner city, right?
So the group drove three carriages to Yue's house. When they arrived at the alley, Bai Erlang and Bai Dalang got on one carriage with Fu Wenhua and Yin Huo, while Manbao and Bai Shan went in in Daji's carriage.
The servants of the Yue family had a somewhat tense look on their faces. When they saw Manbao, although they did not want to receive him, they did not dare to, so they had to let him in.
This time, not to mention Old Lady Yue, even Yue Dalang didn't show up.
I don’t know if it was because he was injured or because he lost face in front of Bai Shanzhouman yesterday and couldn’t face it.
Bai Shan and Manbao went to the backyard together. He was embarrassed to go into the house and too lazy to go to the front hall, so he sat on a stone bench in the yard and waited.
Nanny Fu offered him some good tea apologetically.
Manbao felt Fu Wenyun's pulse and then gave her an acupuncture treatment. She lay on the pillow and said, "I thought you weren't coming today."
After all, the Yue family had just lost face in front of her yesterday. With her intelligence, she should give the Yue family a day to recover. Anyway, her current illness is not urgent.
Knowing that she couldn't hide what happened yesterday, Manbao smiled and glanced around the room. After confirming that Nanny Fu was not in the room, he whispered, "I came in to ask you a question on behalf of your brother."
"What?"
"He wants to take you out, are you willing to go out?"
Fu Wenyun laughed, "He definitely couldn't come up with such an idea. Either you gave it to him, or Butler Xu did."
"Your housekeeper thought of that. He's quite capable."
Fu Wenyun said softly, "Butler Xu used to be my father's servant. He studied with my father since he was young. Most of the household chores were left to him. Even my mother relied heavily on him."
She said, "Our Fu family used to be just some wealthy country gentry. My father spent a huge amount of money on his education, and even more on his career as an official. When I was born, we were still a little tight on money. Although my mother didn't have to wash clothes herself, she had to take care of the shopping and kitchen chores herself."
"But by the time I was five or six, the family already had enough servants, and relying solely on my father's salary wasn't enough. As you know, although my father was a bit of a thief, he wasn't a greedy or cruel person. The family's money came from business, and it was basically managed by Butler Xu, so he was naturally very capable."
Manbao asked, "Then are you going to listen to him?"
Fu Wenyun raised her eyes and looked at Manbao, smiling slightly, "In our family, Housekeeper Xu can make half of the decisions on behalf of my father. Since it is my father's wish, as a daughter, I will naturally obey my parents' orders."
Manbao understood immediately after hearing this, and couldn't help but wink at her with his left eye, saying mischievously, "Don't worry, sister, Fu Wenhua will definitely not make things difficult for you."
Fu Wenyun smiled slightly and lowered her voice, "Remember to bring the child with you."
"Of course." Manbao thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to bring a dowry?"
Fu Wenyun shook her head and said with a smile: "I'm just going out for confinement. I'm not going to stay away from home. Why should I bring a dowry?"
She said meaningfully, "It's best not to bring it."
Manbao thinks so too.
After chatting with Fu Wenyun for a while, he said, "You go to sleep. This acupuncture will take two quarters of an hour. I will remove it myself when it is healed."
Fu Wenyun's eyelids became heavy and she gradually fell asleep.
While Bai Shan and the others were seeing the doctor here, Fu Wenhua, under Yin Huo's instructions, had already asked Feng Shu to find Butler Xu.
The capital is so big, where can I find it?
Feng Shu subconsciously went back to the inn where they were staying and happened to meet Butler Xu who had just returned. When the two met, Butler Xu realized that the young master had acted so quickly and quickly pulled Feng Shu to go find the young master together.
Feng Shu asked, "Butler Xu, did the young master do the right thing or the wrong thing?"
"If you can get the Second Young Lady out intact, then that's right. Otherwise, do you need me to teach you? Where did the young master find this person? Did he just pick up some coolie from the street?"
"No, they are servants borrowed by Mr. Bai and his classmates," Feng Shu said. "They are waiting outside the alley of my uncle's house now."
Butler Xu asked curiously, "Who is that man? Does he have many servants in the capital?"
"Quite a lot, right? I heard that young master's father was a marquis, a high-ranking official called Jingzhao Yin."
Butler Xu: ...
He couldn't help but pat Feng Shu on the head. "I always tell you to study hard, but you won't listen. You just follow the young master and fool around."
"Oh, Housekeeper Xu, no, uncle, please stop hitting me. I'm setting up the carriage and it's going to flip over."
See you tomorrow
