Chapter 456 Only You
Ye Wu was carrying two bundles in his hands and smiled: "I have packed everything."
Ye Mingzhu looked at the two small bags on his back and asked, "Fifth Brother, is this all you have?"
Ye Wu chuckled twice: "There are some clothes and other things in there. I told my uncle that my house is for him and his family to live in."
Although Ye Wu's house was also very poor, it was no problem to live in it for two or three years. This was the house that Ye Wu had renovated after he made money with Jiang Hongyu.
Except for two or three good pieces of clothes, the rest of the clothes in his bag were old. His aunt-in-law didn't allow him to take them, but he felt it was a pity to throw them away, so he took them with him in the end.
He had originally planned to bring his bedding, but the bedding was too old, so he had to give up in the end.
Fortunately, he has money now, so he can buy it when he gets to Linchang.
"We still have more than ten days before we leave. Why are you here so early?" Jiang Hongyu would only be back for two or three days and would have to go back to the island.
Ye Wu was also helpless. Fu Chengyun told him every day the benefits of going to the capital to serve as a guard, and threatened him that if he didn't go with him, he would make him stay here forever.
Although he knew that Fu Chengyun was mostly joking, he was still worried. After all, he was the only one at home, and he could go out as long as he got the household registration and travel permit.
Jiang Hongyu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing what he said. He didn't expect Fu Chengyun to be so naive.
"Master Fu is just joking with you. He wouldn't do that."
"I know." Ye Wu simply didn't want to listen to Fu Chengyun's nagging. He had no rank anyway, so it didn't matter whether he left early or late.
"I thought of going to Linchang first. With so many of you going together, you have to find a place to stay. Otherwise, if we all go there in the dark, who knows what will happen."
Ye Wu made this decision after careful consideration. Since he decided to put his entire fortune and future on Jiang Hongyu, he naturally had to consider all these things for him.
Ye Mingzhu didn't expect Ye Wu to be such a thoughtful person, but Jiang Hongyu was not surprised at all.
"Then I'll take you to the county tomorrow to get a pass and buy you a boat ticket directly. You go over there and take a look at the situation first, and everything else will be easy. Let's buy a house first, so that we have a place to stay wherever we go."
Jiang Hongyu asked Ye Mingzhu to give Ye Wu some silver.
Ye Mingzhu directly gave Ye Wu a silver note worth one thousand taels, which was shaking a little when he received it in his hand.
"Mingzhu, what you gave me is too much."
"Fifth brother, none of us have been to Linchang, and no one knows the price of houses there. What if you go there and don't bring enough money?"
Ye Mingzhu had no shortage of money, so she simply gave him some more. She told Ye Wu, "Fifth Brother, take a look at the situation there and try to buy a house with two or three entrances."
If nothing unexpected happens, they will probably live there for several years. When Uncle Yan and Aunt Qing pass away, they will go there.
Lang and Sister-in-law Ying will probably have to live with them for the time being.
If she had another child and added a few more servants to the family, the house would definitely be too small to accommodate them.
Although Ye Wu didn't understand why Ye Mingzhu wanted to buy a big house, the money was taken out by Ye Mingzhu, so he obeyed.
"Okay, Mingzhu, tell me what kind of house you like. I will try my best to buy the one you like."
Ye Mingzhu was a little amused: "Fifth brother, I have never been to Linchang, so I don't know what the houses in Linchang are like?"
"It's okay, just tell Fifth Brother what you like and let him pick out the ones you like." Jiang Hongyu thought Ye Wu's idea was good.
Since Jiang Hongyu and Ye Wu both felt that there was no problem, Ye Mingzhu told them everything she could think of.
Ye Wu has a very good memory. After Ye Mingzhu finished speaking, he could repeat it by asking again.
Ye Mingzhu's eyes were full of surprise: "Fifth brother, I didn't expect your memory to be so good?"
Ye Wu felt a little embarrassed. Ye Mingzhu originally wanted to ask him if he could read, but when she thought about how Ye Wu, like herself, had lost both parents and might not have the chance to learn, it was better not to ask.
In the evening, Ye Mingzhu asked Yunniang to prepare a sumptuous meal to entertain Ye Wu. The next day, Jiang Hongyu saw Ye Wu off.
Ye Yun'an and Luodou both ran over. They happily said that they had put away their things and asked Ye Mingzhu to check them.
Ye Mingzhu went to see that their room was empty, as if it had been swarmed by locusts.
"Put all your things away. What are you going to use these days?" Ye Mingzhu tried her best to control herself from laughing so hard that she bent over.
These two kids are so interesting. They actually put away all the things. Now, in their room, besides the bed, there are only two water cups.
Ye Yun'an and Lu Dou looked at each other, and Ye Yun'an asked, "Sister, how many days do we have left to leave?"
Ye Mingzhu smiled and said, "I guess it'll take about ten days?"
Green Bean exclaimed: "It's still that long?"
So he should take out the towel he uses to wash his face, otherwise he will have no towel to wipe his face after washing it the next day.
Ye Yun'an was also a little embarrassed, as he had the same thought.
"I remember I told you the time to leave?" Ye Mingzhu held back her laughter and recalled.
Ye Yun'an and Lu Dou recalled at the same time and finally came to the conclusion: Ye Mingzhu said it, but the two of them forgot. They only wanted to pack up their things quickly and forgot that they had to stay at home for a few more days.
Looking at the expressions of the two children, Ye Mingzhu stopped laughing at them and asked them to take out some of the things and not touch the rest.
When Jiang Hongyu came back, Ye Mingzhu told him about the joke the two children had made.
Jiang Hongyu just twitched the corners of his mouth, with no expression on his face. Ye Mingzhu was a little confused: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with Fifth Brother?"
But the fifth brother did not leave with them, he had already left.
Jiang Hongyu tried to make his voice sound calmer: "I saw Aunt Mo today. Aunt Mo told me that she wants to stay here."
"The nanny used to say that I was the most important person to her, but why didn't she go with me?" Jiang Hongyu's voice was full of sadness and confusion.
"The wet nurse has a family now, so naturally she wants to be with them." Ye Mingzhu believed that Jiang Hongyu knew the reason, and he probably couldn't get over it in his heart.
Jiang Hongyu lowered his head and talked about the past: "When I was a child, my mother had to take care of the family affairs, and my wet nurse always accompanied me. On the way to exile, we didn't have enough money, so my wet nurse gave me all the money she had. Later, I tried to earn money, but I couldn't find my wet nurse."
Ye Mingzhu didn't say anything else. She just sat next to Jiang Hongyu and listened quietly to him talking about the past.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Hongyu touched his face, hugged Ye Mingzhu, and buried his head in her neck: "Mingzhu, you are the only one I have."
