Chapter 170: Weird and unnatural
These days, the news that Xingyuefang is hiring skilled craftsmen at a high price has been spreading all over the capital.
There are countless people applying for the job every day, and with so many craftsmen coming and going, they just can't make this bicycle.
It's not that bicycles are difficult to make, but the craftsmanship required is too high. Not to mention other parts, they can't make the strange chain on the bicycle.
They did think of other ways, such as buying some small parts from Feixing Pavilion and assembling them themselves.
But the price of these parts is extremely high, and after assembly, they are even more expensive than the finished product.
Xingyuefang racked their brains and couldn't find a solution, so they have been quiet for the past few days.
Yu Wenhai squeezed the towel hard, squeezed out the water in the towel, and handed it to Cen Wanyue.
"Everyone has their own opportunities. Who knows what kind of shit luck the surname Gan has? Don't think too much. Although this west courtyard is not auspicious, it is elegant enough, much better than living in a deserted house before."
Cen Wanyue said nothing.
Now the sun is about to set. If she doesn't clean the house, she will have to clean it in the dark.
By the time she cleaned the house, it was already dark.
She planned to call Tiancai back, but there was no trace of Tiancai in the yard. She shouted a few times, but there was no response from her son.
She was a little panicked. The guards in the mansion heard her shouting and immediately came forward.
"Where is my son?"
"Have you seen my son?"
The guard bowed and answered respectfully, "Young Master Tiancai just said he wanted to play with other young masters, so we took him to the front yard. If you want to call Young Master Tiancai back, I can do it for you."
Seeing how pale Cen Wanyue's face had just turned, the guard added,
"Grand Master Gan pays great attention to the safety of the mansion. He ordered us to patrol the yard every half a minute. Two teams take turns patrolling. The mansion is very safe. As long as Young Master Tiancai is still in the mansion, you don't have to worry about his safety."
Cen Wanyue realized that she was no longer the same as before when she heard the guard calling her young master.
Cen Wanyue suddenly felt that her behavior was a bit embarrassing. She coughed and waved her hand coquettishly: "Go ahead."
After a while, Yu Tiancai came back.
He was holding an exquisite rabbit lamp in his hand and happily held Cen Wanyue's hand.
"Mom, this house is so beautiful. Not only is there a beautiful study, but there is also a beautiful lake."
"There is also a rockery in the lake, and there are beds and tables in the rockery. You can drink tea and eat snacks."
Yu Tiancai's face was full of longing: "It would be great if we could live in this house forever."
Cen Wanyue touched Yu Tiancai's head: "Silly child, this is your aunt's home. Your aunt's home is our home. No one can drive us away."
Yu Wenhai sneered: "You are really ignorant. You have never seen good things. Real rich people have houses that are more than ten times bigger than this one. This is just a small place."
"When I have money, I will buy a house that is more magnificent than this one for you and your mother to live in."
Cen Wanyue did not believe a word Yu Wenhai said. She stretched out her hand and pointed at him: "Come on, why don't I know that you know any rich people?"
"Did you do something to let me down behind my back?"
Yu Wenhai slapped her hand away: "What are you thinking? When have I ever done anything to let you down? Everything I did was for your own good and for the good of our family."
"In order for you and my son to live a better life, I even abandoned my mother, my elder brother and my younger brother."
Cen Wanyue said unhappily: "Don't push it onto me. Weren't you afraid of being dragged down at the beginning?"
The next morning, Yu Wenhai dragged Cen Wanyue out of bed. Cen Wanyue smiled and went into the kitchen. She happened to meet Pan Niang who was cooking.
"Sister-in-law, how about I cook today's meal? We have a long time to live together in the future. It's not good for you to cook every day."
A long time!
Cen Wanyue pronounced these three words very heavily and deliberately dragged out the sound, as if she was demonstrating or acting coquettishly .
Pan Niang's hand paused. Seeing the smile on Cen Wanyue's face, she didn't know whether she was speaking the truth or deliberately making trouble.
"Okay."
Pan Niang threw the cooking spatula into the pot, and walked away without even saying how hard it was.
Seeing this, Cen Wanyue showed a hint of smile on her face.
Yesterday, she saw that Pan Niang had changed her usual sullen look and thought that she had changed her character. Unexpectedly, she was still the same as before. She could make Pan Niang angry with just a little trick.
No matter how prosperous your first wife is now, you still have to listen to mother!
Even if our second wife abandons the first wife at the critical moment, as long as mother is willing, they can live a good life.
There are still many days to come. Do you want to abandon their second wife and live a good life by yourself?
No way!
Cen Wanyue twisted her waist, turned around and hummed a little tune to cook.
Pan Niang felt more and more wronged when she walked out. Cen Wanyue was obviously demonstrating to her, but the words she said sounded like the coquettishness between sisters, which made her feel bitter but unable to speak. She felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
This was how she was at home in the past. She had so much trouble that she couldn't tell it. Now she was still like this when she saw her again.
Hui Niang came to the kitchen with her child to find her. Seeing her sitting outside with a depressed look, she sat down beside her.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Pan Niang said dully, "It's nothing. Maybe it's because I got up too early and I'm a little tired."
[No way! ]
[My aunt is very hardworking every day. She gets up earlier than chickens and goes to bed later than dogs. She has endless energy. How could she be sleepy? ]
[My aunt must have been wronged! ]
Gan Tian looked at her aunt distressedly, pouted her lips, and blew gently at her aunt.
[Tian'er blew on my aunt, and she wouldn't feel sad after blowing. ]
"Ah, ah, ah."
Because her teeth were not fully grown, Gan Tian's saliva splashed out and splashed Pan Niang's face.
Pan Niang was not angry, but picked up the little guy and took a deep breath.
"Tian'er smells so good, my aunt likes Tian'er the most."
[My aunt is lying, obviously my aunt likes the little heroine too. ]
[But that's true, the little heroine is so cute, who wouldn't like her. ]
Pan Niang's mood improved a lot, she said to Hui Niang: "Haven't I been selling steamed buns these days? I think it's a good thing to be able to stay at home with my husband and make money at the same time."
"But recently I always feel that staying at home like this is not good, I want to go out and do something, Hui Niang, do you have any good suggestions?"
A piece of clothes was sticking out of the kitchen door. Hui Niang didn't look familiar with the material, and she knew it was Cen Wanyue who was eavesdropping.
I think my sister-in-law is avoiding this person.
Hui Niang thought about it carefully and felt that there was indeed something that Pan Niang could use.
"I wonder if you still remember that I made a sanitary napkin worth fifty taels of silver a few days ago?"
