"Thank you, mother!" Wen Yu lost her mother when she was young and didn't know what it was like to get along with a mother and daughter.
At this moment, I finally felt that she had a mother.
She was touched, her eyes slightly wet, and she leaned against Madam Qi and said in a delicate voice, "How come you think of everything for your wife? If you dote on her like this, you're going to spoil her into a fat girl who can't do anything!"
Madam Qi was also very relieved: "Okay, Fatty, go back quickly!"
The two of them walked towards their own yard. The distance was quite long! After walking for a while, Wen Yu was tired and dazed. She squinted her eyes and took one deep step and one shallow step.
Qi Wu was afraid that she would fall, so he held her little hand with one hand and put his other hand on her shoulder.
Wen Yu was stunned again. Sometimes this person was like a piece of wood, unable to utter a few words for a long time, let alone something nice to say. But sometimes, he could be so bold and unrestrained.
Qi Wu suddenly asked: "How about I carry you on my back?"
Wen Yu cried out in her heart, if only it could be like that, she could fall asleep on his back! She yawned, tears welling up in her eyes: "If you carry me on your back, the whole capital will know about it tomorrow!"
Qi Wu smiled, exerted force, and most of Wen Yu's weight was unloaded on him.
Qi Yue, who had just come out of his mother's yard, saw this scene from behind.
It's really sweet and romantic!
This woman... her steps are staggering, is she tired?! Countless lewd images flashed through my mind.
Just because Qi Wu married a wife who was much better than himself! A nameless anger rushed to his head, but thinking of what his mother had just said, he stopped and turned to the study room in front.
Qi Wu knew there was someone behind him, but it was normal for people to come and go in the house, so he didn't pay much attention.
The two of them returned to the room. Wen Yu ignored everything and fell asleep without even taking off her makeup.
Looking at the soft ball on the bed, Qi Wu had another "idea" in his mind. After thinking it over, he estimated that if he made any more trouble, she would get angry.
She slept until dusk, and when Wen Yu woke up, Qi Wu was not in the room.
Xiao Ji came in happily: "Grandma, our grandfather has gone to the front! Madam said that we can have dinner in our own courtyard tonight. We will go back home early tomorrow morning. When we come back, we will go to Madam's courtyard."
"Then I won't be polite. I've been so tired these days!" Wen Yu was very happy when she heard that she didn't have to go out. "Comb my hair quickly."
Laba came up and said, "Grandma, Laba will loosen you up!?"
"No, as soon as you relax, I'll fall asleep again!"
The maids around Wen Yu are Laba, Xiaoji, Qinghe, and Xiaoxiang, who were selected from the people trained by Song Shang. Knowing her background, gentle temperament, and versatile! Wen Yu had told her in advance that Qinghe would be her dowry, and she said very clearly: You have also seen the ending of Hong Xing, and that is the end of being unfaithful. When I marry into the Qi family, I will not give the maids around me to my husband as concubines or consorts. So, don't expect this when you go.
If you are loyal and work hard, your future will not be bad.
If you don't want to go with me, since you have served me for so long, I will make proper arrangements for you.
But if you follow her but are indecisive, Hong Xing is a lesson for you!
Qing He didn't know what she was thinking, but she had to follow him into the Qi family, so she agreed without hesitation.
At this time, several people told Wen Yu the news they had heard.
First of all, this courtyard is very clean. The two older girls are engaged, and they will be released after Qi Wu gets married.
Zhang Cai and his wife have been with the Fifth Master for many years, taking care of the affairs in the house, the warehouse and outside, and they are very loyal.
There were several second-class maids, all pretty and very good-looking, but they could not get close to Master Wu. Master Wu probably didn't even know their names.
Wen Yu was very satisfied: Mother-in-law is my own mother! ...
At this moment, Qin Lianyue was coercing her husband to compete with her mother-in-law.
In fact, Qin Lianyue is a very scheming person, and all her previous foolish behavior was only due to her unwillingness and greed.
When her husband told her mother-in-law about her plan, she was shocked and sad, but she quickly calmed down.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and she and her husband were in deep sorrow for a long time.
Jiang Chuan originally had no plans to take a concubine, and he had been married to his sweetheart for only half a year. Why rush? It's not like he had met someone he couldn't forget at first sight!
So, he felt distressed when he saw his wife so sad.
He turned around and told his mother that he wanted to delay it a little longer. Otherwise, his wife would get sick and it would be even further away from having a baby.
But Mrs. Jiang is not easy to deal with.
He came to his son's room in person with a very good attitude. He first asked about Qin Lianyue's health.
Secondly, he expressed satisfaction with Qin Lianyue, his daughter-in-law.
Once again, I appreciate the harmonious relationship between the young couple.
Finally, present the facts and reason.
After talking for a long time, it was just one thing: Jiang Chuan's eldest brother had no offspring, so Jiang Chuan had to take on the responsibility of continuing the family line. This was the top priority for the Jiang family! Otherwise, he would be an unfilial son who was sorry to his ancestors!
Moreover, the birth of a concubine's son will not have any impact on the legitimate son.
Finally, he brought up his own story with the Duke to share his personal experience.
Jiang Chuan listened to the side and felt that what his mother said made sense. For a family like theirs, incense is the most important thing! To put it bluntly, if he had any mishaps...then all the glory and wealth would be gone, and he would really be an unfilial descendant! So, his position changed.
Once he changed, Qin Lianyue had no chance of getting rid of her mother-in-law.
At this moment, she felt deeply regretful again.
…
Wen Yu ate a little dinner and went back to sleep, firmly rejecting Qi Wu's "disturbance".
The next day, seeing Qi Wu's resentful eyes, I finally came to my senses.
"Let's go! Go back home!" She washed and dressed up, and waved her little hand.
Wen Qian and Wen Feng took a day off to wait at home.
Wen Jiao and other girls were particularly excited, talking and laughing, and running back and forth, "Here she comes! Grandma, the big sister is back!"
Qi Wu supported Wen Yu and appeared at the door. They were both dressed neatly and looked very happy. The Wen family members breathed a sigh of relief.
The ceremony of greeting each other and recognizing each other's relatives was filled with smiles on everyone's face.
I'm afraid that the shadows of Yuan and Wen Huan are nowhere to be found in the Wen family except in Wen Qian's heart.
The men went to the front to talk, and the old lady kept Wen Yu and asked her in detail.
Wen Yu answered patiently, "My mother-in-law said that the girl born by my second sister-in-law will be 100 days old in a few days, and the mansion will hold a banquet. When the time comes, please invite our family to join in the fun."
"Okay!" Old Mrs. Wen was very happy. From now on, they would be relatives and they could visit each other more often.
Moreover, she knew that the eldest son of the Qi family had not yet been born...
"Grandmother will discuss this with your aunt Song later. The Song family has good medicine and good doctors. They are all in your cousin's hands! Ask aunt Song to send a female doctor over. You are young, so there is no need to rush to get pregnant. Take good care of yourself for half a year and try to have a boy!"
Wen Yu smiled bitterly: “Grandma, you think too far!”
"Not far at all! Every family is like this! A woman, no matter how big the world is, has to rely on her son! Just like your grandmother, if it weren't for your father and second uncle, how would she have lived?!"
She was just like an ordinary grandmother, chattering about what a daughter-in-law should do.
But she said one thing that surprised Wen Yu: She didn't teach her how to be obedient or how to swallow her anger. Instead, she told her to be prudent in her actions but not to let others bully her easily.
Once, there will be a second time and countless times after that! This atmosphere really is like a grandmother teaching her granddaughter.
…
When Qi Wu got married, Mu Bo was not idle and was working outside.
I just got back to the mansion and wanted to report to the Fifth Master, but it turned out that the newlyweds had gone home.
He stood there and thought about whether to go find his sister to eat something delicious, or...
Suddenly I remembered that Mr. Wei, I haven't visited him in recent days. I'll go and see him later!
But he was still hungry, so he ran to the guards' house in the mansion, asked for some food, and found a corner to eat it.
The person sitting next to him was Zhang Yuan, one of Qi Yue's personal bodyguards.
Zhang Yuan had heard of this Mu Bo, who had only been with Wu Ye for a little over a year. Wu Ye thought highly of him...
Seeing that he was eating without regard for whether the food was raw or cold, she stood up and poured him a cup of hot water.
Mu Bo took it and said, "Hmm". He finished his meal and drank some water. Then he looked at Zhang Yuan...
"You came back with the Marquis?"
"Yes. I am the one who works for the Third Master, Zhang Yuan."
"Mu Bo. I have something else to do. I'm leaving now."
Zhang Yuan's grandfather was the adjutant of the Marquis. That year, the Marquis came back seriously injured and his grandfather died.
When he died, my father was a few years old. He later developed paralysis and his legs were damaged.
My grandmother was heartbroken and died young.
The Marquis's Mansion treated my father well. They raised him, taught him to read and write, and worked as an accountant in the mansion.
He was also arranged to marry his elder brother, elder sister and him. His elder brother was an official outside, and his elder sister was married. He learned martial arts since he was a child and was arranged to be with the third master.
When he came back this time, he told his father that he wanted to return to the capital and be with his father.
As a result, his father was furious! The mansion raised his father, married him and gave birth to children for him. He thought that his life belonged to the mansion. If he did not obey the orders of the Marquis, it would be a betrayal...
But my father doesn't know, and he can't say... What kind of person is Qi Yue! Is he worthy of asking me to risk my life?
