Chapter 154
Chapter 154
Poor Wu Da didn't know Wu Youwei's name, let alone who Wu Ying was, so he could only tell him that there was no such person.
How could Wu Ying be willing to go back so disheartened?
"You let me in, I'll look for it myself!" He didn't believe it, he asked one by one, but couldn't find that useless one.
"That's not allowed." Wu Da shook his head: "We don't let strangers in here."
Now who doesn't know that Wujia Village is rich? The unmarried boy of his family and Wu's family now has a matchmaker visiting the door all day long, and he dare not let anyone in. His wife has been out all day to inquire about the daughter of a good family Marry to be a daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, in the past, their daughter-in-law was either from the next village or an orphan. It’s good if you don’t have a mother’s family, and live with you wholeheartedly.
I thought a little too much, but Wu Da would never let anyone in.
"What stranger? I'm here to find my uncle, how can I become a stranger?" Wu Ying's head was burning right now, but she had to endure it.
"I've never seen you before, so why let you in? I said, there's no one you're looking for here, so go away." Wu Da has a good temper and a stupid mouth, but that doesn't mean he's a fool, okay? There are so many people who come here for no reason to find someone, who can tell what they are here for?
They have money and prosperity here, so some come to build relationships, some come to get rich, and some come to steal, okay?
But the walls of Wujia Village are so high that they can only look at the gate and sigh.
At that time, Wu Da really admired the master for thinking so far. If there was no fence, some people would have entered.
"You!" Wu Ying was blocked and had nothing to say, and turned around anxiously.
"I said young man, hurry up and leave, there is really no one you are looking for here." Wu Da didn't want to continue talking with him, and turned back to the house.
The weather in October of the lunar calendar was already very cold. Wu Ying drove a bullock cart around the outside, and there was no other door outside the gate.
In fact, as long as he looked up, he could find a bluestone road leading to the mountain among the sparse vegetation, but he didn't know that Wu Youwei lived in the villa, so he never looked at those forked roads.
Fortunately, Wu Er happened to go out to deliver something to Wu Youwei. Wu Er had been to Wu's mansion, and Wu Ying had seen him.
Only then did I know that Wu Youwei lived in Mo Ling Villa, not Wu Family Village.
But Moling Villa was more strictly guarded than Wujia Village, and Wu Ying was stopped at the gate.
"I'm looking for Maid Wu, Wu Youwei." He came up with Wu Er, and when Wu Er saw someone behind him, he quickly closed the door.
Seeing Wu Ying, he frowned: "Who are you?"
He had never seen Wu Ying before. The few times he went to Wu's mansion, he always walked with his head down when he entered the gate, and he couldn't look directly at the nobles. This was the rule for the little people like them to save their lives.
"I'm his nephew Wu Ying, Wu Qingyu." Wu Ying reported her family name.
The eldest nephew of the Wu family?
Wu Er didn't dare to open the door to let people in, but said: "Wait a minute, I'll go and talk."
The Wu family has been demoted to common people, just like them, so Wu Er doesn't call himself "little" in front of him.
As mentioned earlier, this gate looks like a fence, surrounded by high walls, similar to the walls of Wujia Village.
And the inside is the real gate, including some vegetable fields and apricot trees, plum trees and sand fruit trees and so on.
It's just that it's winter now, and there's nothing to see.
After Wu Er entered the gate of the house, he went directly to Wu Youwei. At that time, Wu Youwei was roasting chestnuts by the stove with the young couple.
Wantong's Double Ninth Festival gift was to give Wu Youwei a lot of dried fruits, besides the common melon seeds and peanuts, chestnuts, pine nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, etc. were also impressively listed.
Even more rare is the pistachio, which is still called "Pistachio" at this time.
However, Wu Youwei put away the more expensive pistachios. He doesn't like to eat them very much at ordinary times, he only likes some more popular things. No, he roasted chestnuts, and the two of them squatted around the stove anxiously On the side, as soon as I heard the movement, I pulled out the chestnuts, you took a bite, I took a bite, and I was quite happy to eat.
Seeing this scene, Butler Lin Su wiped his face, turned around and went to the kitchen, and found Chef Fang, "Let's have barbecue for dinner."
"Huh?" Chef Fang thought for a while: "Roast lamb?"
"Alright, let's have some haggis soup." Butler Lin Suo said, "Eat this tonic in winter."
Eating mutton in winter is a food that can keep hands and feet warm.
"Okay." Chef Fang put on his big clothes, and ran out to the sheepfold by the corner gate in the small garden, where there were twenty or thirty fat and healthy sheep.
Butler Lin Su happened to meet Wu Er when he came out. Wu Er was here to deliver green vegetables, so the first goal he left was not the main room, but to deliver the green vegetables to the kitchen, and then he went to the main room to find Wu Youwei.
The two of them put down the vegetables together, and then went to find the master.
Seeing Wu Er coming, Wu Youwei brought him two roasted chestnuts: "This is delicious."
"Master, it's not the time to eat this now. Someone was looking for you outside, and they all followed me to the gate. I didn't dare to let anyone in..." Wu Er said everything, he didn't know that Wu Da had already The matter of dismissing Wu Ying.
"It's time to come." Wu Youwei thought for a while: "Bring him to the living room, serve tea, let the kitchen serve me the best dim sum, um, make the white tea that Master Ji Kong gave me last time !"
That thing is a tribute and is very famous. The name of white tea first appeared in the seven events of Lu Yu's "Tea Classic" in the Tang Dynasty. It records: "There is a white tea mountain three hundred miles east of Yongjia County."
Wu Youwei only had five catties, and he drank it cherishingly.
Butler Lin Su understood what the master meant when he heard it: "Why don't you change your clothes? Wu Youwei looked at the loose and warm home clothes on his body: "Okay!"
So when Wu Ying came in, before he had seen enough of the villa, he was ashamed by Wu Youwei's attire.
Wu Youwei was sitting at the head seat in the living room, with a headband on his head and a safety buckle inlaid with emerald green suet jade. A moon-white scroll leather belt and the safety buckle on the headband are made from the same piece of jade. The bamboo sign safety jade plaque is hung on the waist, and the cotton boots of the same color as the clothes are on the feet, and the whole body is exposed. There is a scent of books, but also a trace of elegance and grace.
Standing next to Wu Youwei, Xiao Xiao was wearing a leather jacket with Buddha's head blue, short-cut, but the material was also very fine cotton, and a ribbon with ocher-colored treasure-shaped patterns was tied around his waist, hanging Wearing a purse embroidered with the word "Fu".
And the butler was also very neatly dressed and stood there without losing his grace.
There were eight plates of snacks on the table, a Sancai Gaiwan, and the faint fragrance of tea wafted over. Wu Ying was not Wu Youwei, he could smell it, it was a good tea for self-motivation!
He also had the honor to taste it a few times and remembered the taste of this tea.It's a pity that now, he can't afford it and dare not drink it, let alone drink it.
There was a faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the room, which was burning spices. There was a copper censer with a triangular support under the main table in front of Wu Youwei, and green smoke rose slowly from it.
Not only does it keep you warm, but it also makes the air in your home smell better.
Wu Ying could tell that it was the famous spice "Plum Snow". He once had a small packet, and he cherished it for a whole winter. A packet cost a hundred taels of silver.
Because this spice can not only remove peculiar smell, but also refresh the mind, it is the favorite spice of scholars, and it is also the most suitable for scholars.
But how much spices should be filled into such a big copper furnace?
Wu Ying looked at them, then looked at herself, and instantly... hated the rich
In fact, he misunderstood, butler Lin Su ordered spices to cover up the smell of roasted chestnuts that Wu Youwei and Xiao Xiao made.
You can’t want to give people a bad impression, or when you are intimidated, the smell of roasted chestnuts wafts in the room, right?
What did that become?
So when Wu Youwei was being dragged by Xiao Xiao and Xu Niang to change clothes, butler Lin Su outside began to direct the staff to pack things quickly.
Get rid of all the useless things that will make the master drop in price, and put all the tall things in your house on display!
Even the dim sum plates were searched through the warehouse, and the best official kiln plates were found to serve as them. There are only three of them here because Xu Niang and the others went to change clothes and put on makeup. You must let Wu Ying know that your family is no longer what it used to be. compared.
So a luxurious scene was set up. Poor Wu Ying almost froze into a dog outside, and was hit when he came in.
This room is not what it used to be, and Wu Youwei didn't have that leisurely arrangement, doesn't it mean Lin Su's butler doesn't have leisure time, okay?
After all, he is also a butler from a high-ranking official's mansion, with extraordinary taste, the decoration here looks like a mansion, but it has a very low-key luxury.
Wu Ying's jealousy arose, and Qiu Fu took a look around: "I didn't expect that uncle's life is so good."
Why?
He brought a large family to live in the old and dilapidated ancestral house, and endured hard days, but this useless person actually eats good tea and snacks, wears silk and satin, and lives in a good house.
"I think you misunderstood." Wu Youwei opened his mouth slowly: "I have nothing to do with you. My nephew is Wu Qiong, my niece is Wu Lier, my sister-in-law is Wu Mengshi, and my brother is Wu Bang. You who is it?"
Wu Ying choked: "What did you say?"
"People who have already separated and separated, do they rely on relationships?" Wu Youwei sneered, and looked at Wu Ying with red eyes: "Oh? I know, this is not Wu Feihou's real brother What? Uncle Qianguo? Your old man was beheaded, and you are lucky to be alive."
Wu Ying: "...!"
"We have already divided into clans. We are not even members of the clan. What kind of uncle are you talking about? You don't even know where my family is, and you still have the face to call yourself my nephew?" Lingshanzhuang, I am Wuyou Wuyou, the owner of the villa, you can go, from now on, our two families will never communicate with each other."
"Why?" Wu Ying was angry: "My Wu family has raised you for more than ten years! Are you just watching the Wu family collapse like this?"
"So what?" Wu Youwei was even angrier than him: "Do you think I would like to be born in the Wu family and grow up in the Wu family?" Wu Ying choked, "But the Wu family took care of you!"
"That's right, so I gave back the things and money I got from the family division to the Wu family at a discounted price. When you got married, I sent them back. Don't you know?" Wu Youwei sneered: "I remember you I'm very happy, you spent a lot of money in Qunfang Pavilion, oh, it's ten thousand gold, you paid 3 taels of silver, when your Wu Mansion was rich, I didn't pick it up, so now, don't pick it up either."
Wu Ying blushed and turned pale again. If she doesn't come, what will the family do?
"I remember that you should have some money in your hands. 50 taels is enough for a family to live carefree for a year, and you still have land." Wu Youwei really didn't understand. It's light, but it's definitely not tight.
"Give me 1000 taels, and we'll break it off from now on!" Wu Ying went all out: "That bitty woman reconciled with me, my house was ransacked, and there is nothing left."
He didn't have the face to say that his family had fallen into such a state, and his grandmother and mother were still particular about ostentation, so they had to be served by servants, but Lily Dayler was right, this family couldn't live like this.
But he didn't have any money in his hand, so he could only find Wu You...to fight the autumn wind.
"Why?" Butler Lin Su was not happy, asking for money was like asking for his life.
Butler Lin Suo firmly opposed this kind of meaningless expense.
"Otherwise, I'll bring my grandmother over here." Wu Ying became ruthless. He didn't want to live in the Datong shop in the big car shop anymore. The disgusting living environment like a pigsty is really unbearable, so he must get it. Qian: "You can deny me, but she is your aunt."
"Your Wu family's genealogy doesn't have my name anymore. Return it to my aunt?" Wu Youwei was overjoyed: "Let her try it!"
Do you really think he is a soft persimmon?
Or do you think that you are still the queen's brother, a member of the court?
