Wu Weian finished drinking the water and was about to walk out of the bedroom when the person on the bed suddenly jumped up.
He was two steps away from the bedroom door when he heard the noise and immediately moved his feet to leave quickly.
Ji Yunxi opened her eyes, regained consciousness in a second, and said before he left, "No."
Wu Weian stopped and turned to look at Ji Yunxi: "You just said 'hmm'."
Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows slightly and reached out to smooth her sleep-messy hair: "You took advantage of me being unconscious to trick me, but it doesn't count."
Wu Wei'an insisted: "'Yeah' means I agree."
Ji Yunxi lay back down, too lazy to argue with Wu Weian on this topic: "No means no."
Wu Weian pursed his lips, walked back and stood by the bed, looking down at Ji Yunxi: "Why not? This trip will take at least two months. Do you want to leave me alone outside?"
Ji Yunxi opened her eyes and was speechless: "You are five years old this year?"
Yun Xiaoan is five years old this year, but he is not as clingy as him.
Wu Wei'an was about to sit down, but Ji Yunxi stopped him: "It's no use begging me. I have things to do and can't leave Shangjing City."
Wu Weian: "Just over two months, your people can hold on."
Ji Yunxi felt a little headache: "When I go out to do things, I don't ask you to accompany me, right?"
Wu Weian raised his eyebrows: "I would like to accompany you, will you let me?"
Ji Yunxi: “…………”
She lay back down, pulled the covers over her head, and stopped talking.
Wu Weian reached out and pulled down Ji Yunxi's quilt, softening his tone: "Madam."
Ji Yunxi: "No, you go by yourself. Go early and come back early. Have a safe trip."
At this time, no matter what Wu Weian said, it would be useless. No one could change what Ji Yunxi had decided.
Wu Weian can't, and neither can Yun Xiaoan.
"Why?" Wu Wei'an was silent for a moment. "The wives of the other officials who went with me wanted to go with them, but they couldn't. But you can go with me, and I want you to go with me. Why don't you want to go?"
Ji Yunxi had a headache: "I told you, I have something important to do."
Wu Weian: "You personally selected each shopkeeper. You know their abilities better than I do. Your absence of two months is completely insignificant."
This time it was Ji Yunxi who remained silent.
"Wu Weian." Ji Yunxi sat up from the bed again. "I really don't have to be here, but I like doing these things. Do you understand me?"
She likes to make money. Even though her net worth is now incalculable, she still likes doing business and enjoys the feeling of making money.
Wu Wei'an understood: "Yes, you like these things, but you don't like me."
Ji Yunxi: “?”
Wu Weian sneered: "To you, everything is more important than me. Your brothers are more important than me, Yun An is more important than me, and your business is more important than me. I am insignificant to you."
Ji Yunxi: “???”
Wu Weian pursed his lips and said, "In that case, let's just get a divorce."
Ji Yunxi: “???”
After saying this, Wu Weian slammed the door and left.
That day, Wu Weian was in a bad mood and had a cold face, which made everyone in the court and the country frightened. Everyone walked with much lighter footsteps for fear of bringing bad luck.
Lord Wu usually had a smile on his face and looked gentle and elegant. Some court officials would also chat and laugh with him and talk about family matters.
But once such a person turns cold, he becomes even more frightening.
In the evening, when Wu Wei'an was leaving the government hall and preparing to go home, he happened to meet Ye Bianxiu and his wife and daughter.
The voices of a family of three could be heard, and Wu Weian at the back could hear it more clearly than anyone else.
"Husband, can't you take us with you when you go back to Jiangnan this time?"
"Dad, Mom and I want to go with you. We want to accompany you."
"Of course not. I'm just a minor official and can't bring my family with me. You guys wait for me at home, and I'll bring back some delicious food and fun things, okay?"
What followed was Ye Bianxiu's personal words to comfort his wife and daughter. Wu Weian couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he walked around the three of them and got into the carriage.
Wu Weian didn't want to go home at all. He sat in the carriage with a cold face, wondering where to go.
Everyone in Dayu knew that the Prime Minister's carriage never needed a driver. The skinny horse he had searched all over the capital knew the way home.
The skinny horse ran towards the Wu family at a moderate pace.
At the door of his house, Wu Wei'an put his hands behind his back, looked at the plaque above, and said to the skinny horse beside him: "You brought me back, not me wanting to go back."
After saying this, Wu Weian walked into the door.
The house was unusually empty. He walked around and found that Ji Yunxi and Yun Xiaoan were not there.
He stopped the diligent and busy steward Yuan and asked, "Where's the madam?"
Steward Yuan bowed to him and said, "Madam went to Dongyun Cloth Shop. Before she left, she said she would be back late today and told us not to wait for her for dinner."
Wu Weian pulled the corner of his mouth and said in a cold tone: "She is quite busy."
As the prime minister, he is indeed very busy.
But the Prime Minister's wife is even busier than him.
She was in charge of Kaitai Manor and the cloth shop alone, and also had unknown power in her hands. She was able to do the work of three people, and her life was extremely fulfilling.
He saw that she was very motivated every day. Not to mention her husband, she probably didn't even remember that she had a daughter.
Wu Wei'an: "Where's Yun'an?"
Steward Yuan said, "The Empress Dowager is hosting a banquet tonight and has invited the Plum Garden Opera Troupe. The young lady went to the palace early this morning."
Wu Wei'an sighed, "She's quite diligent in running around the palace."
Wu Weian had seen the twin boy and girl in Meiyuan.
The men are not as good-looking as the men in the Ji family, and the women are not as good-looking as Ji Yunxi.
Wu Wei'an couldn't figure out what his daughter saw in those twins? Why was she constantly sending money to Meiyuan?
Wouldn’t it be enough for my mother and uncles at home who don’t want money to just take a few glances?
No, Yun Xiaoan will not have the chance to see her mother and uncles in the future.
