Pei Ji went to bed early last night and was the first to wake up this morning. As soon as he woke up, he found the room empty, and a big question mark popped into his little head: Where is Mommy?
Min Yueqing almost never got up before Pei Ji woke up, so Pei Ji was a little confused. He turned over in confusion and realized that Min Yueqing, who had slept on his inside side last night, was sleeping on his outside side this morning.
Although Min Yueqing was facing Pei Ji, she was being embraced by Pei Han, which immediately made Pei Ji jealous.
He rolled forward gently and into Min Yueqing's arms, his little hand domineeringly placing itself on her waist. Unexpectedly, usually he would put his hand on Min Yueqing's waist, but this time it landed on a large hand, and Pei Ji quickly withdrew his hand.
This woke Pei Han up.
According to Pei Han's biological clock, he should be waking up by now, but with his wife and children by his side, he felt exceptionally warm, and even though he often wanted to sleep a little longer.
Pei Han slowly opened his sharp phoenix eyes. Because he had just woken up, his eyes were still a little sleepy. As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately met his son's gaze, but he didn't know why there was a hint of accusation in his son's eyes.
As Pei Han's thoughts gradually returned, he instantly remembered what Min Yueqing had said last night and immediately understood why his son had that expression.
Pei Han, wanting to mend her relationship with her son, looked at Pei Ji and said softly, "It's almost time to go to the study, shall we get up?"
Pei Ji's emotions were in turmoil yesterday, and he forgot about this long-awaited event for a moment. It was only after Pei Han reminded him that he suddenly remembered it.
Pei Ji nodded immediately. His anger and sadness came and went quickly. Besides, Pei Han had always held a superior position in his heart. Although he was now second only to Min Yueqing, he used to be on equal footing with Min Yueqing.
Pei Han breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his son nod. After all, his son had never argued with him before, which made him unusually at a loss when faced with this situation.
Pei Han got out of bed and dressed first, then stretched out her hands to Pei Ji. Pei Ji immediately tiptoed out of bed and pounced on Pei Han's hands.
Pei Han held the warm Pei Ji in his arms and sat on the edge of the bed. He personally dressed him piece by piece, put on his shoes and socks, and then took Pei Ji's little hand and walked out of the inner room.
In order not to disturb Min Yueqing's sleep, they went to the adjacent side room to wash up.
In fact, as soon as they left the inner room, Min Yueqing opened her eyes, feeling somewhat relieved. She intentionally wanted Pei Han and Pei Ji to be alone together to repair their father-son relationship as soon as possible, so she pretended to be asleep even after waking up.
When Pei Han led Pei Ji into the study, the two of them found that Shi Tou was already waiting there.
Shi Tou was pacing nervously around the room, but as soon as he heard footsteps outside the door, he quickly stood to the right of the entrance, keeping his eyes down and his mind at ease.
Upon seeing Pei Han, Shi Tou respectfully greeted him, "Master."
Seeing that the child was punctual and polite, Pei Han nodded secretly, "Go and sit down."
As soon as Shi Tou entered the study, his heart began to pound. Although he had Pei Han's permission, he did not dare to move without permission. Only after Pei Han and Pei Ji had sat down did he walk over and sit down next to Pei Ji.
As the serious teaching began in the study, Min Yue leaned back comfortably on the tatami with a soft pillow, and Xiao Wei, who had just woken up and wandered over, was resting on her lap.
She stroked her furry friend with one hand and flipped through a miscellaneous book with the other. On the small table in front of her, Amei had already set out tea and breakfast, and she was living a very comfortable life.
The bed was delivered the day before. Wu Shiliu and his apprentice were skilled carpenters, and with the help of many other workers, the room was soon filled with a lot of furniture, such as wardrobes, beds, tables and chairs, which were among the first items used.
Ah Zhu walked in at this moment, her face beaming with joy, and said, "Miss, the women that Master found are quite efficient; they've already made more than thirty sets of spring clothes. Since summer is approaching, we chose lighter materials, so these clothes can still be worn in the summer!"
Upon hearing this, Min Yueqing said, "Then let's give everyone in the courtyard a set of clothes first. What about the two of you?"
Ah Zhu replied with a smile, "Miss, they can make a kind of local women's clothing. The style is very special and I have never seen it anywhere else. It is quite beautiful. Ah Mei and I asked them to make two sets for us."
Min Yueqing said, "Oh? Why aren't you wearing anything today? You can wear something so I can see."
Ah Zhu said, "Miss, since everyone in the courtyard has made new clothes and no one else has received them yet, Ah Mei and I shouldn't wear them first, lest we make others feel uncomfortable."
Min Yueqing hadn't expected that Azhu, with her decisive and straightforward personality, would also be so shrewd and adept at dealing with people. She smiled and said, "I didn't think things through. I'll go with your suggestion, and we'll wear them together tomorrow."
Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone; Ah Zhu has thought of everything very carefully.
Seeing that Min Yueqing had no objection, Azhu said, "Then I'll go and tell everyone to get their clothes now, so that everyone can have some fun early in the morning."
"What an impatient person," Min Yueqing couldn't help but chuckle, nodding as she went.
In the courtyard, the news that the new clothes were finished spread like wildfire, reaching every corner. Upon hearing the news, the servants and laborers who had gotten up early to work suddenly felt no longer sleepy or tired, and all rushed to the back room.
The entrance to the back building was already a scene of jubilation, with everyone crowding together chatting and laughing, waiting for Ah Zhu to speak.
When Ah Zhu saw that almost everyone had arrived, she called out their names one by one according to their size. Everyone who heard their name was overjoyed and ran over to collect their clothes.
All the servants and waiters wore dark blue clothes, a color that is dirt-resistant and practical.
It wasn't until the message was sent to Wu San Niang and Wu Yan Yan that different color schemes appeared. Wu San Niang wore a light orange outfit, while Wu Yan Yan wore a light pink outfit.
When Wu Yanyan saw the beautiful light pink dress, her eyes widened immediately.
Even when her father was alive, she only wore coarse gray-white cloth clothes. After her father passed away, the family couldn't even afford to eat, so how could they afford nice clothes? They could only patch up their old linen clothes with other linen.
Wu Yanyan carefully reached out and touched the clothes she was holding; they felt very light and soft.
Wu Yanyan tightened her arms, hugging the clothes even more tightly, then looked up excitedly at Wu San Niang and said, "Mother, these clothes are so beautiful, and they feel so comfortable to the touch."
Wu San Niang was also very fond of her clothes. She never thought that at her age, she could still wear such fine clothes, and they were even colorful.
Looking at her beaming daughter, Wu San Niang said, "This is all thanks to Madam's kindness. You must remember this well. As long as you put Madam first in everything you do in the future, you will not let Madam down for her kindness to us."
Wu Yanyan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, promising, "Mom, don't worry, I'll definitely remember it!"
