Chapter 126 Jiang Yunshu Encounters the Roster
"Daddy."
Song Yu hurried over to get the roster and couldn't wait to look through it.
"So many? One hundred and fifty?"
Song Mingen said: "Looking at the entire capital, there are not many."
"Cousin, let me take a look."
Song Yu knew she was anxious, so he quickly gave it to her and said, "Let's go sit in the pavilion and read it slowly."
Jiang Shiyun also followed.
Wen Nuo was about to go over when Song Mingen stopped him, "Your father is waiting for you and your mother in the front yard."
Wen Nuo's head drooped. He didn't have enough fun. How come time passed so quickly?
Wen Nuo followed his parents into the carriage in a depressed mood.
Wen Can looked at his lost face and rubbed his head, "You still want to stay at the Jiang Mansion for dinner?"
"No, I just didn't have enough fun, so when I got home I was playing alone again."
"How could that be?" Wen Can glanced at Li Yuejiao, "Your mother and I are planning to give you a younger brother, and then you can have him play with you."
"What?" Wen Nuo's eyes widened. "Mom is going to have a baby?"
"Not yet. Dad is asking for your opinion. If you don't want one... I'll still give you a biological brother."
"No! I don't want a stinky brother, I want a sweet and soft sister." Wen Nuo threw himself into Li Yuejiao's arms, "I want a sister, I want a sister."
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to your sister." Li Yuejiao raised her eyebrows. "What if she's pregnant with a brother?"
Wen Nuo pursed his lips tightly and stared at Li Yuejiao's belly. "Then you should give birth to the baby. If the brother is naughty, you can beat him. If the sister is naughty, you can only coax her."
"Hahaha……"
"By the way, Daddy, can you help me steal someone tonight?"
"Steal someone?" Wen Can was surprised. "Steal who?"
Wen Nuo hurriedly told Wen Can what happened in the morning.
"That's inappropriate. How long have we been in the capital? That child is someone else's servant. Stealing someone else's servant is illegal. If we report it to the police, we'll be in big trouble. And you weren't wearing a mask this morning, were you?"
Wen Nuo: ...
"From what you described, that family is only two streets away from our Wen Mansion. Their surname is Yu, and the mistress of the household is pregnant."
Li Yuejiao was surprised, "She's also three months pregnant?"
"She's four months pregnant. The Yu family works in the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War. Even though they're minor officials, we should try not to provoke them."
Wen Nuo frowned and whispered, "Dad, don't forget you have another identity. Are you still afraid of them? If they stole him away and didn't place him in the Wen Mansion, they could have placed him first... in the Jiang Mansion... Yes, send him to my sister. My sister only has Ah Si as her guard. Raise him well and have him wear the mask and follow Ah Si to protect my sister."
"That child doesn't have any martial arts skills, how can he protect Sister Yu? Isn't this causing trouble for Sister Yu? There are people in the dark who want to harm her."
"Then send him to the Suzaku Pavilion headquarters and have the people below train him well. After a few years, when his appearance has changed, we can assign him to protect my sister."
"A-chan." Li Yuejiao said, "That's a good idea. We can definitely steal the person out."
Wen Can thought for a moment and said, "If we want to bring in more people, I'll let my eldest brother know. If he agrees, we can go and steal the child."
"Let's steal him out first and then tell Uncle Song. I'm worried that the little brother will go hungry if he stays in the Yu Mansion for one more day."
Wen Can said in a deep voice, "Listen to Daddy on this matter! Didn't you threaten them this morning? Don't worry, the child won't go hungry for the time being!"
Three years ago, he acted on his own and was self-righteous without informing his eldest brother, which resulted in his eldest sister-in-law being reunited with her family three years later.
He must never do such a stupid thing again.
Song Yu and Jiang Shiyun had no idea where to start with the list, so they stood aside and watched Cheng Qingmeng cross out one pregnant woman after another.
"Cousin Meng, please wait a moment. Don't rush to cross it out. Wait until mother and aunt come to screen together. What if the concubine is crossed out?"
"Don't worry, I'm more familiar with the capital. I'm crossing out the houses that are more than a hundred miles away from the Yongping Marquis's Mansion."
When Feng Yingying and Jiang Yunwan arrived, Cheng Qingmeng had already screened out a hundred families.
"Meng'er, you crossed out a hundred people?"
"Yes, they are all decent women. The list contains detailed introductions of their husbands. Most of them are concubines who are pregnant, and the rest are mistresses of various families who are pregnant. There is no doubt that concubines are not among these one hundred people."
After saying this, Cheng Qingmeng glanced at Song Mingen who was watering flowers in the distance.
It is not possible for the richest man in Yancheng to find out such detailed information.
My uncle is probably not a simple person.
Cheng Qingmeng took just one look and continued screening.
Feng Yingying was worried and went to re-screen the items that had been crossed out with Jiang Yunwan.
"Meidai, where's Meng'er?"
"The young lady went to Hibiscus Garden while you were asleep."
Jiang Yunshu glanced at the sky and said, "I've slept too long. Dinner is almost here. Let's pack up and go to Furong Garden."
The maid guarding the entrance to Hibiscus Garden saw Jiang Yunshu coming and turned to go in to report.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Yunshu stopped her, "No need to pass on the message, leave."
Jiang Yunshu slowed down his pace as he entered the courtyard.
After passing through the flower corridor, I saw Cheng Qingmeng and Feng Yingying sitting together reading a book under the octagonal pavilion in the distance.
Caiwei saw Jiang Yunshu coming over and hurriedly whispered, "Mrs. Cheng is here."
Cheng Qingmeng snapped the book shut. "Mother, why...why are you here?"
"Mother woke up and didn't see you, so she came to look for you."
Jiang Yunshu looked at them with a strange expression.
"Sister, sister-in-law, you are not here to teach these three sisters how to manage accounts, right?"
As Jiang Yunshu spoke, he reached out to pull the list that Cheng Qingmeng was holding down.
"Yes, mother." Cheng Qingmeng quickly stuffed the list into Feng Yingying's hands. "My aunt and uncle are teaching us how to manage the household and how to check the account books."
Jiang Shiyun quickly agreed, "Yes, aunt."
Jiang Yunshu glanced at the roster and said, "Let's continue. It's not dark yet."
"I've been studying for over an hour. We'll continue tomorrow. I'm going back to Begonia Garden first."
Feng Yingying took the list and turned to leave.
A tall figure approached and reached out to grab the list in Feng Yingying's hand. "Yingying, let me see the list of pregnant women. I must personally take care of that concubine..."
Jiang Yunzhou glanced at Jiang Yunshu, his face changed drastically, and he quickly shut his mouth.
Feng Yingying wanted to slap the list in his face.
The eyes are on the back of the head!
"I'll give it to you when we get back to Begonia Garden."
"etc."
Jiang Yunshu stared at the list in Feng Yingying's hand and walked over quickly.
Cheng Qingmeng's face panicked and he followed closely behind.
"Mother, what should I do? My cousin fainted in my dream yesterday. What if my aunt finds out? She's pregnant."
Jiang Yunwan: "She won't believe it."
Feng Yingying hurriedly put the list behind her and said, "Shushu, this is the account book of a shop under my name. There's nothing to see."
