Today, it’s Wen Yu who comes.
Wen Yu had already sent a message to Yan Zhu, asking her to get ready and then go pick her up.
When they got to the store, Wen Yu first told Master Qing what she had heard...
"He said he was from Jinzhou. Is that your hometown?"
Master Qing shook his head. "My hometown is in Xijing, more than 300 miles from Jinzhou. As far as I can remember, none of my sisters married there. Moreover, my sisters definitely did not marry into families like this. There would not be mothers-in-law from humble backgrounds who would take their granddaughters to wander around. They might be affected by the decline of their natal families, but they would not abandon their daughters and run away with others just because their husbands died."
Wen Yu nodded: "It happened too long ago. Those who knew about it are either dead or missing. These are what the younger generation occasionally heard from the elders. It's passed around, so there must be mistakes."
"Yeah! I guess most people who rented the house are gone. Actually, this is just a thought, so I'll stop here."
"I wanted to invite the old lady to the store, but she..." Wen Yu smiled, "She has always refused. Find a chance, go to her house and see if you know her!"
"Okay. But don't be too serious. You are the granddaughter-in-law, and you have two mothers-in-law above you. You have to be careful. The Marquis's wife will never meet with us craftsmen casually again."
"Okay. What is Zhuzhu busy with? Why don't you see her when I come?"
"She's been busy these days! Did you know that Master Song Wu bought an inn nearby?"
"No? When did it happen?"
"It should be that when we started to renovate the shop, he bought it and has been tidying it up. It will be ready to open in a few days! I went to take a look yesterday, it was very high-end!"
"Mr. Song is very wealthy, so he can't be compared with me! Are they close?"
"It's just a few steps away! The front is small, but it's very big inside. My uncle said that from now on, all meals for the inn will be ordered from us."
"Oh, then I'm going to be rich!" Wen Yu was happy.
Master Qing also laughed: "Mr. Song is really generous. Add to that the work of the big customer of the silver shop a few days ago, you are going to make a fortune!"
"Congratulations!" Wen Yu smiled.
"Oh, I forgot to mention it just now. Lord Wen was sick here that day." Master Qing explained what happened.
"Later, Dr. Huang, whom Song Wu had found, and Dr. He, who was often used by Dr. Wen, came. The two had a good chat, and after acupuncture and medication, he woke up quickly. But he was quite weak, and his home was quite far from us. So, Song Wu moved him to the inn.
That Mr. Wen was generous and immediately booked a suite on the second floor for him to stay in. Now Zhuzhu delivers three meals a day. He also cooks medicine himself and is busy taking care of the patient! "
Wen Yu rolled her eyes, feeling sour in her heart, "Let us Zhuzhu serve you? What kind of person is this Lord Wen? No, I have to call her back!"
I ran to the kitchen, but saw Yan Zhu cooking medicine while instructing the little girl...
"Zhuzhu, are you cooking medicine? Who's sick?" Wen Yu asked knowingly.
"Ayu..." When Yan Zhu saw her, she no longer had the mindless happiness of the past, but became much calmer.
"Zhuzhu, what's wrong with you?" Wen Yu was startled.
"Lord Wen is sick. I was scared that day..." Yan Zhu said with red eyes.
Wen Yu quickly hugged her: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Didn't you say it's okay?"
"It's okay now, but at the time... it scared me."
Gu Yue was fanning the fire nearby. Although he didn't dare to say anything, he seemed very disapproving.
He was very depressed! That piece of dog skin plaster was stuck firmly. He actually lived next door!
He secretly went to see, Wen Ruoqing, her body was clearly healed! He was still working, but as soon as Zhuzhu came upstairs, he knew it and immediately fell there.
At such an old age, he still uses this trick, how shameless! At this time, Gu Yue didn't think about how much younger he was than others with his white hair. He stuck to Yan Zhu incognito, and pretended to be so...
Humph! He continued to fan: The emperor didn't even check his grades, is he just pretending like that! Seeing Yan Zhu busy with medicine again, Wen Yu was also unhappy: "How long will he drink it?"
"The doctor said, finish these three doses and then come back for a consultation. This medicine can sometimes cause acid reflux. So you have to eat some snacks before drinking it. You can't put sugar in it, so you have to make it alone..."
"So troublesome?" Wen Yu curled her lips.
"Ayu, you probably don't know! Fifth Brother Song opened an inn right next door. Seeing that Lord Wen was sick here and too weak, he arranged for him to move in. He became the first guest." Yan Zhu smiled.
"I just heard from Master Qing." Wen Yu was distracted: Zhuzhu had only treated herself like this, who was Wen Ruoqing to her...
"Zhuzhu, the Wen family is a big family. Is there no one to serve him?"
"All right, all right! Didn't he say he had a disease? It would flare up from time to time. How can I blame you? Besides, ignorance is not the fault. If he gets sick from this, I would look down on him!"
Yan Zhu stopped crying: "It will be fine in a few days. Ah Yu, I didn't delay anything. We have prepared everything for the East Palace! Can we just send the medicine over and leave?"
"Okay! I'll go see...the patient too!" Wen Yu said dissatisfiedly.
Gu Yue laughed secretly...
After a while, the medicine was ready. Yan Zhu poured it into a jar, then put it in the incubator and picked it up: "Let's go! Let's go and see the inn. It's so luxurious!"
Wen Yu followed Yan Zhu and didn't walk far out of the door. They arrived at the inn. There was a passageway after the gate, and then suddenly it opened up to a courtyard, pavilions, towers, and exotic flowers and plants. Further ahead was the reception area for guests. Further in, there were doors one by one. There were stairs next to it... and upstairs!
Oh my god, I really didn't notice it before, it's actually this big? When they went upstairs, Hu Zi was standing at the end of the corridor. Seeing them coming, he smiled and said, "Miss Zhuzhu. Madam Qi Wu. Our master is meeting guests downstairs and will be up soon. Please come in and wait a moment..."
After saying that, he opened the door.
The spacious living room is filled with light-colored beech furniture, light-colored carpets, and beautiful bonsai.
Elegant, clean and without any worldly air.
There are several doors next to it, which should be bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.
Looking at the exquisitely decorated room, Wen Yu thought: Who are we facing if we open an inn here? Yan Zhu took out some things and asked Hu Zi, "Is the master feeling better?"
Gu Yue followed in and sat on a small stool by the door, rolling her eyes in her heart: You've already been here once this morning, okay? How good can he be in such a short time? How bad can he be? Didn't I hear that he went to meet guests? There were footsteps at the door, the "patient" was back.
As soon as the person entered the door, Gu Yue indeed saw that Lord Wen's steps were unsteady... It was completely impossible to tell that he was so confident when he was scolding his subordinates just now.
"Lord Wen, how are you?" Wen Yu stood up and looked at him with a smile.
Lord Wen was a little surprised to see Wen Yu. He coughed and then restrained himself a little.
Yan Zhu came over and said seriously, "If you are not feeling well, don't meet with guests for now! It will be troublesome if you catch a cold later."
Lord Wen blushed a little: "Don't worry, there are many more! Madam Qi Wu is here...please take a seat."
"I was shocked when I saw Zhuzhu just now. Her little face looked so thin... My lord, how about I arrange for a few maids and servants to come over?" Wen Yu said with dissatisfaction.
"No, no, no! No need! In fact, I'm fine now. I'm just taking the medicine to consolidate my strength. Thank you for your hard work these days, Miss Zhuzhu!"
"You are too polite, sir! Zhuzhu is simple-minded. I am afraid that I have caused you to get sick. I feel so guilty."
Lord Wen didn't like Wen Yu's tone! But he could only sigh: "Yes, she is smart and simple, a good girl..." Suddenly, an idea came to his mind...
"Miss Wen, I have been chatting with Zhuzhu these days and learned about her life story... You two little girls grew up together. Especially, you are both so outstanding. It is really rare! These days, she has taken care of my sick body in every possible way. I like this girl very much. So, I have an idea... to adopt her as my adopted daughter, what do you think?"
"Ah?!" Wen Yu was surprised, and Yan Zhu was also surprised.
Is he sure he can take advantage of her?! Gu Yue looked solemn, he was not happy.
Lord Wen figured it out, and his words became smoother. "Although you are younger than Zhuzhu, you are more like her sister. Now, you are married and the daughter-in-law of the Qi family. You can't bring Zhuzhu with you. Although you have arranged a place for her to live, servants, and guards. But..." He glanced at the man in blue at the door.
"She is a girl after all. To be honest, it's not right to keep going like this. She is already this old, and she needs to talk about marriage. If her father were still alive, she would probably be my age. With me as a supporter, and a dowry in the future, I think her marriage would be better."
Wen Yu is really serious, this... is really good! "Zhuzhu won't marry!" Yanzhu said.
"Nonsense!" Lord Wen glared at her and said to Wen Yu, "If this goes through, I'll take care of her marriage!"
He definitely won't want me to be his son-in-law. Thinking back to Lord Wen's usual attitude towards him, Gu Yue was unusually excited and stood up.
But Lord Wen looked at him provocatively...
Wen Yu didn't notice the sparks between them. Instead, she looked at Yan Zhu: "Zhu Zhu, you..." She wanted to ask Yan Zhu if she was willing, but it seemed inappropriate to ask in front of Lord Wen.
"Then let's go back and discuss it."
"I have no children in my life. If I adopt Zhuzhu as my daughter, I will definitely treat her well! Moreover, the ceremony of adopting a daughter must be decent, with a big banquet, and I must invite my friends to witness it. When the time comes, I will book your store to host it! Moreover, the gift for my adopted daughter will also be taken from your store!"
This is a temptation...but it smells good.
Youchoubao said that he hoped Zhuzhu would have a backer, and here comes the backer.
