There is a home in the depths of the white clouds

Chapter 036 Posthumous Son

"Brother Wei will go with you, just leave this place to your mother and your sister-in-law." Wu Jun called Shao Yao to give instructions, and then took Wu Youwei away.

After going out of the two gates, their respective entourages followed, and after passing through the garden corridor in the mansion, the two brothers separated and went back to their respective courtyards.

As soon as I got back to my place, it felt different.

Wu Youwei sighed, after all, that was his home field!

Xiaoxiao has brought back breakfast, which consists of steamed stuffed buns, millet porridge, shredded pickles, and salted duck eggs.

Wu Youwei was hungry a long time ago, the snacks he ate when he left didn't make him hungry at all, okay?

Wu Youwei and Xiao Xiao ate two of the four salted duck eggs. The yolks were oily and delicious.

After breakfast, day lily came to see him.

"What's the matter?" Wu Youwei didn't think that the day lily was causing trouble for nothing. In the past half month, the small courtyard has been very quiet.

"Little master, the second wife's wife is pregnant with a posthumous child. Look, do you want to send me something?" Hemerocallis reminded him in a low voice: "After all, he is the second master's child. Now that the second master is gone, it doesn't matter if it's male or female. Second Master's last heir..

Wu Youwei was taken aback for a moment, he really forgot.

In fact, he was so preoccupied with thinking about this ancient man and woman, he forgot that the widow who was pregnant with the posthumous child was still his second sister-in-law.

The second elder brother is gone, and the second sister-in-law is really the last heir of the second master, just as Lily Hemerocallis said.

Everyone is dead, isn't it the last heir?

"Understood." Wu Youwei waved his hand: "Go down.

Hemerocallis was stunned for a moment, bit her lip, and said courageously, "I know Camellia next to the Second Wife, so I can take a trip for the young master."

"Well, I see, let's go down." Wu Youwei still had the same attitude.

Hemerocallis retreated unwillingly, and went back to the tea room to sulk, this was the first thing she thought of, why didn't the young master use her?

Camellia next to Mrs. Erfang is a big girl, and she has a good relationship with her, that is, I know her, and I have only talked to her a few times.

But she thinks that now that the second wife is a widow, she could crush everything in the past!

It's a pity that Wu Youwei intends to send someone over to have a look, but he won't send day lilies over there.

"Xiao Xiao, go and call Jasmine over.

"Yes, my little master."

After a while, Furong arrived.

The tea room of Hemerocallis is the side room of the main room, and she can see any movement in the main room as long as she is at the door.

Seeing Xiaoxiao go and come back, and bring Jasmine into the main room, Daylily is so angry!

Forget it!

Furong took advantage of the fox fur matter; this time it was Jasmine's turn.

Should Wu Xu be in charge next time?Next time, it should be Xiaoxiao, right?

Or Xiaolian?Xiaokui?Or Xiaofen?Miao?

Just without her daylilies!

Jasmine had never met the young master alone, and when she was called, she was a little apprehensive, did she not do well enough to make the young master hate her?

Are you familiar with the people over there in the second room? " Wu Youwei asked her directly.

"I'm familiar with it. This servant and Camellia from the second room are born on the same day, so I worshiped my god-sister." Jasmine said, "However, this servant hasn't been in touch with that place since we arrived here." "Well, you and that Camellia, Are you in a good relationship?" Wu Youwei asked: "Sisters who are close friends?

"Yes." Jasmine gritted her teeth and admitted that her friendship with Camellia, even if it was a concealment, the young master would know if he just asked any maid.

Wu Youwei was very happy to be so open to her: "Yes, just right, there is a happy event today. The wife of the second room is more than three months pregnant. This is the posthumous son of the second room, the last heir of the second room. On my side, I want Send someone over to have a look, and by the way, send me a gift."

Jasmine looked at the young master in astonishment, the second wife has a posthumous child?

"You know the situation in the second bedroom. It's not very good. The second sister-in-law is orphaned and widowed. After all, the old lady is too old to take care of her. The elder sister-in-law is busy with family affairs." Wu Youwei said, "I think, In addition to the gift, I will give the second sister-in-law some money in private, so that she can do a better job, at least she is pregnant, and buy some supplements to replenish her body."

"Yes, what the young master said is that the second room...is not much better than ours before." Jasmine said directly, "Besides, the dowry of the second room's wife was also looked down upon by the old lady."

How can it be that you can't see it?

The wife is the daughter-in-law of the Sun family, with a prominent family background. When she got married, 64 carried the dowry, two Zhuangzi, two shops, four servants, and twenty juicy girls.

In the second year of entering the mansion, the young master was born.

However, because the master had four beautiful houses sent by the old ladies at that time, those four were not only beautiful in appearance, but their methods were very dirty, and they harmed the pregnant wife, and the young master was weak and sick when he was born.

Those four sluts were all sold to Dashilan, according to Madam.

From then on, the affairs of the master's backyard were all handled by the wife.

The old lady was really ashamed in front of the wife at that time, until the lady gave birth to the eldest lady, and sent the eldest lady to the old lady to be raised by the old lady under the excuse of being "busy" and "the body can't bear it". Turning hostility into friendship, Wu Jun is also more satisfied with Sun Huijuan, who is his first wife.

The little master may not know everything about the backyard, but the few maids who came out of the backyard do. "You send me two baskets of plain brocade eggs tomorrow." Wu Youwei said in a low voice, "I'll give you another 100 taels of silver and secretly give it to the second wife. Jasmine said excitedly: "I understand! "

The young master must have valued her for using her to do such a secret thing, and she must handle this matter well, and she had heard Camellia say before that the life of the second wife's wife was poor, but fortunately there was some dowry to support her, and the wife Determined to keep the chastity, no one dares to really embarrass her, there are still some negligence, but they are all small gestures.

"What should I say, do you know?" Wu Youwei looked at Jasmine and asked, "The reason why I sent you there?"

"I know, I know!" Jasmine nodded excitedly, "This servant knows what to say."

"Go and change into clean clothes, prepare Sujin and eggs, and then bring them here for me to have a look. It's all right, you can send them."

Xiaoxiao sent Jasmine out, Wu Youwei took the opportunity to enter the space, took out 100 taels of silver, and found a pair of solid silver bracelets from the things the housekeeper gave him. Solid sterling silver, quite valuable.

He picked it out and wrapped it in red silk.Then he left the space and sat in the study.

After a while, Jasmine came, carrying a basket with eggs and two horses of plain brocade.

"Well, not bad." The egg basket is not big, but in order to prevent freezing, it is filled with straw nests, and after the eggs are placed, it is covered with a cotton pad to prevent cold and wind.Wu Youwei opened the egg basket himself, and put ten silver ingots and a red cloth bag in it: "Let the second sister-in-law put these away." "Yes, the servants will definitely bring them!" Jasmine put the eggs up Put it on and cover the cotton bag.

Wu Youwei sent Jasmine away, picked up the "Book of Filial Piety" and continued to teach Xiao Xiao how to read.

It was time for lunch, and Jasmine hadn't come back yet. Furong was leading people to make clothes in the house, and she didn't show her head at all. On the contrary, it was the daylilies in the tea room, which was a heart-scratching one.

Lunch turned out to be omelets, stewed frozen tofu with potherb mustard, stewed melon with dried beans, dried spiced tofu, black and white vegetables, and mushroom soup.

Four dishes and one soup!

And it wasn't brought back by Xiaoxiao, it was delivered by the cook in the kitchen herself: "The old lady said, the second wife has a posthumous child of the second elder, which is considered a happy event, and all servants will reward half a month's monthly money, The masters are also officially having a vegetarian meal, which is a celebration."

"Understood." Wu Youwei nodded, and after washing his hands, he sat at the dining table, and Xiaoxiao set out the dishes and spoons for him.

After Wu Youwei had dinner, the cook resigned. After all, this is not a place where she can stay whenever she wants.

When the people left, Wu Youwei immediately asked Xiaoxiao to bring over his meal.

Xiao Xiao ran over to get it. His ones were plain noodles, stewed tofu with potherb mustard, five-spice dried tofu and mushroom soup, which were two dishes less than the master's.

"Come on, eat omelets." Wu Youwei combined the two portions of food, and they sat at the dining table to eat.

Xiaoxiao likes to eat egg cakes, but Wu Youwei doesn't like soft things like egg cakes. He likes to drink mushroom soup.

Mushrooms in this era are all wild, and no one cultivates them. The small mushrooms are only the size of a thumb belly. The soup base is made with spiced ingredients. The small mushrooms are extremely delicious. Even if they are vegetarian, they are very good when paired with the soup base. drink.

The two of them had full stomachs, and because the sun was good at noon, they were dressed thickly, so they called someone to clean up the leftovers, and a master and a servant circled around the yard.

Just in time to see daylilies come back.

At noon, there was a time for the servants to change shifts to eat. Hemerocallis came from the kitchen with a food box in her hand. When she saw Wu Youwei, she smiled sweetly: "Master.

"Yeah." Wu Youwei ignored her, and took Xiao still around to digest.

Hemerocallis hurried into the tea room, boiled water to make tea as quickly as possible, and brought out a plate of wheat cakes and milk cakes from the food box.

According to her long-term observation, the little master prefers milk cakes, and there are no milk cakes left every time he sends them.

So she specially asked her mother to make milk pancakes.

Then he served it on a tray, walked out of the tea room with a slim waist, stood in the corridor and said softly: "Master, you can have tea and snacks.

"Oh." Wu Youwei was also tired from walking, and walked into the house: "Just give the things to Xiaoxiao.

Hemerocallis.."...!!

Xiaoxiao reached out to pick it up, but Daylily didn't give it to him.

"Servant, let me bring it in for you!" Hemerocallis coquettishly said, "Xiao Xiao is tired too!"

Xiao Xiaosha shook her head in a daze: "I'm not tired!"

Wu Youwei wanted to laugh at that time, but during the filial piety period, of course, he couldn't wantonly have fun this first year, so he said with a straight face, "Come in!"

It's just a tea and a snack.

After entering the house, Hemerocallis felt proud, and she also came in again.

Putting down the teapot and snacks, she poured a cup of tea for the young master herself: "Today's tea is brown rice.

Um. "Wu Youwei didn't care what he drank, anyway, this first year, he couldn't drink tea, so only the old lady could drink tea.

What they drink is plain water, even if it is tea, it is barley tea, brown rice tea and the like.

"This Jasmine has been away for so long, why hasn't she come back?" Hemerocallis placed the teacup in front of Wu Youwei, while applying eye drops to Jasmine without any trace.

It's all eaten and eaten, and the person hasn't come back yet, and the two little maids he brought didn't come back either. Hemerocallis brought it up on purpose, just to say that the other party's heart is too ambitious, and he doesn't want to come back after going out.

"I asked her to look over there more, and help out if she can help." Wu Youwei glanced at the day lily: "Are you jealous of her? Or do you think I can't turn my head? Can you help me?" Random people?"

"Slaves don't dare!" Hemerocallis didn't expect that the young master spoke so bluntly, and when someone exposed his little trick to his face, Hemerocallis only felt his face burn.

"Go out, take a bath at night, don't forget to boil more water." Wu Youwei said lightly: "Also, don't make sweet snacks next time, I prefer salty ones.

Yes, the servant girl knows. "Hemerocallis returned to the tea room sweating all over, she is the one who is frizzy today.

It wasn't until dinner time that Jasmine came back with her people. Every time she came back, she asked the two little maids to go back to warm her hands and feet, and she herself went into the main house to sell her vacation. situation and reactions.
