Chapter 50: Poor and Disliked
He had no money, so he could only write a debt deed to someone.
After Lu Yu came out, he couldn't even afford to buy food in a restaurant, so he just had a pot of wine to drink.
In the middle of the night, he came home drunk.
Pei had recently seen Lu Yu in such a miserable state that she began to feel disgusted with him.
Although I could still save face by helping him wash and sleep as usual, today I really couldn't stand it anymore.
The next day, Lu Yu woke up and found himself lying on a small couch.
And he vomited everywhere, making his clothes smell bad.
"Damn it! How can I go to court like this?"
He was so angry that he scolded the maid, and wanted to ask how Pei had the nerve to fall asleep.
But when he saw Pei sleeping comfortably on the bunk bed as usual, he couldn't help but get angry: "You seem to be very comfortable."
Pei Shi also didn't want to conflict, so she said, "Go take a shower quickly. I'll ask Cang Tao to change your clothes."
Lu Yu glared at her, took off his clothes and went into the bathroom.
However, after washing up, he came out and saw Pei sitting there with a gloomy face. He couldn't help but ask her: "What's wrong? Did you have another argument with your sister-in-law? Or is the old lady being mean to you? I'm so tired every day, and I still have to face your moods?"
In fact, last night when Pei helped Lu Yu to bed, an IOU fell out of her sleeve.
But Pei didn't want to expose it, so she had to endure it.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuxian got angry and said, "Life is getting harder and harder. My family relies entirely on my salary, but no one cares about me. Do you think this is okay?"
He shouted loudly and smashed a Ru kiln vase to pieces before leaving.
Pei was terribly frightened, and the children were already huddled in a corner, crying in fear.
People in the money shop were talking about Lu Yu, saying that he, a fourth-rank official, was so poor.
If you can't pay it back once, you will definitely not be able to pay it back in the future.
The shopkeeper sent someone to ask Fu Danjun for advice.
Fu Danjun couldn't help laughing: "This is to be expected. I'm not afraid if he can't catch up. The monk may escape, but the temple cannot."
The nanny recently sent a message: "A group of people came to the door, saying they are the young lady's relatives?"
Fu Danjun was surprised and delighted: "Could it be that my brother has come?"
The people who got off the car outside the door were indeed her brother Fu Xiaoshan and sister-in-law Cui Wanjun.
Fu Xiaoshan had mentioned in a letter before that he was going to Beijing to visit his sister.
It was only when I arrived in Beijing that I remembered that I still didn't know where my sister lived. After all, she had divorced from the Guanyang Marquis' Mansion.
So he went to the shop and asked the owner.
After learning where his sister lived, the whole family rushed over.
Fu Danjun saw his brother and sister-in-law burst into tears of joy: "We finally meet. How are Mom and Dad?"
Fu Xiaoshan said hurriedly: "Everything is fine with us, but you are the worst off."
Fu Xiaoshan was very distressed about his sister's divorce.
Cui Wanjun was a gentle person. She blamed her husband: "Look at you, you're saying harsh words right after we met. Is this how you care about your sister?"
Fu Xiaoshan was scolded by his wife and quickly apologized: "Okay, okay, I was impatient."
Cui Wanjun hugged Fu Danjun again and wiped his tears: "Don't cry, aren't we a good family?"
In fact, Fu Danjun cried because he felt guilty towards her.
In my previous life, I was cowardly and incompetent, which led to the tragic death of my sister-in-law.
Seeing his sister crying, Fu Xiaoshan said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you that your niece is here too."
Cui Wanjun also realized what was happening and called the nurse to bring the child over: "Look, how much he looks like you."
Fu Danjun carefully held the child and asked happily, "Have you chosen a name?"
Cui Wanjun hurriedly said with a smile, "My name is Fu Xiao."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan came with her child and Xu Yu.
Because guests have arrived, it is etiquette to come out and meet them.
Everyone got to know each other and greeted each other, then went into the yard in a lively manner.
Fu Danjun hurriedly told Lan Fang to clean up the yard: "Hurry up and buy whatever is missing."
Lan Fang was about to leave when she was stopped again: "Tell the kitchen to prepare the banquet."
Cui Wanjun was busy taking care of the child, so she went into the room with the wet nurse first.
Fu Xiaoshan looked around the yard and frowned, saying, "What a shabby place this is! It's narrow, and there aren't many flowers or trees."
Fu Danjun burst out laughing: "Brother, this is Kyoto, a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money."
Fu Xiaoshan put his hands behind his back and continued to complain: "So what if every inch of land is worth a lot of money? We can afford it even if it's worth thousands of gold. Besides, the climate in Kyoto is too dry. Our Jiangnan area is better. Do you remember your boudoir? A few treasures would be enough to buy this house."
After saying that, he strode into Fu Danjun's bedroom.
Then another round of criticism: "There's not even a step-out bed, how shabby!"
Fu Danjun didn't care and asked with a smile: "How many months old is Fu Xiao? Tell me your birth date and I will find her a good husband in the future."
Fu Xiaoshan was stunned for a moment before he laughed: "You can't even find a good one for yourself, and you're still thinking about my daughter?"
Fu Danjun was stunned. Cui Wanjun happened to come over and overheard: "Husband, your mouth is so big that I wish I could sew it shut with an embroidery needle."
As soon as Fu Xiaoshan saw his wife, his eyes were filled with tenderness: "I will change it, I will change it."
In fact, Fu Xiaoshan's eloquence is on par with Fu Danjun's, and he is the type who can debate with a group of scholars.
Seeing how loving his brother and sister-in-law were, Fu Danjun felt both happy and disappointed.
When will I be able to stand up for myself and find a husband of my dreams to shut my brother up?
Cui Wanjun suddenly remembered: "Xiaoxiao will be a hundred days old in a few days. We have to go back to Jiangnan to hold a hundred-day banquet. Can my sister go back?"
Fu Danjun really wants to! But if the tyrant finds out he's missing, won't he turn Kyoto upside down?
And there is also Wanyan Qi, who has even agreed to go to the northern border.
Seeing her embarrassment, Fu Xiaoshan hurriedly said, "It's okay, we'll hold a party here, and we can't leave my sister behind."
As soon as the voice fell, Lan Fang came over and replied: "Miss, Master, Madam, the banquet is ready."
The Jiangnan Fu family has always attached great importance to ethics and family affection. For example, three-month-old Fu Xiao was also brought to the banquet to be seen.
The child happened to wake up and babbled non-stop.
Cui Wanjun came over and Fu Xiaoshan also came over.
The scene of the family of three was so heartwarming that Fu Danjun suddenly burst into tears as she watched.
She thought of the tragedy of her previous life again. If she hadn't been reborn, how could she see this scene again?
Cui Wanjun quickly asked, "Sister, what's wrong? If you have any difficulties, be sure to tell your brother and sister-in-law."
Fu Danjun quickly waved his hands: "No, no, it's not difficult."
Fu Xiaoshan sighed and said, "I guess you are sad about the things happening in the Marquis' Mansion, and you also blame me for being useless and unable to help you at all."
