Chapter 10 Trivia lingers
The next day was still a drizzling rain, not big, not small, there was already water in the yard, and a few people were combing. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Ziyu couldn't ask for leave anymore, so he had to go to class for a day, but Le Zhengmei didn't come to class today.
This day happened to be the birthday of the eldest brother's daughter Yunni, and when she came home from school in the evening, Mrs. Yun had already ordered the kitchen to make a family banquet, and the sister-in-law Xu took the child to help Mrs. Yun arrange dinner in the restaurant. After Ziyu went back, she also washed her hands to help, and by the way, she gave the gifts she prepared to her little niece and nephew.
The eldest brother's son Yunfei is seven years old, with red lips and white teeth, Xiao is like a big brother, and anyone who sees him will praise this child for his good looks. Daughter Yunni did not inherit her father's handsome appearance, she looks a little more like her mother, her little face is chubby like a red apple, she is very pleasing, she is five years old this year. When Ziyu went home, she went to the cake shop and ordered a cake.
Yun Dekai didn't come back until it was dark, and anyone could see the irritability between his eyebrows when he entered the door. Ziyu and Mrs. Yun, sister-in-law Xu waited in the restaurant with her children. Seeing Yun De drive in, they all stood up and greeted each other.
Mrs. Yun smiled softly, "Coming back?" I'm just waiting for you to eat. After that, he personally opened a few dishes for Yun De that he liked.
Ziyu took his father's top hat and coat, helped him hang it up and sat down at the table, and his heart was still a little drumming, but his father seemed to have forgotten to settle accounts with her, and last night passed unharmed. However, the more this happened, the more uneasy Zi Yu's heart became. Yesterday, Ah Hua didn't find out any news, and his father almost didn't take him when he went out, only taking Lao Zhou, the former driver of the Yun family.
Sister-in-law Xu looked outside and asked, "Father, where is Zirong?" Didn't come back with you? ”
Yun Dekai sat down, picked up the rice bowl and ate, he hadn't eaten well all day, and when he smelled the fragrance, he felt very hungry. While taking a few bites of rice, he said, "There is something wrong with the batch of goods at the dock. Zirong is going to stay there to deal with it, and he won't come back today. ”
The sister-in-law said "oh", glanced at her father hesitantly, and still said, "The child has a birthday, won't he come back?" ”
As soon as the words fell, Yun Dekai swept over with a stern look, and Xu was so frightened that he immediately fell silent.
The Yun family is the official eunuch family of the previous dynasty, although it has reached the Republic of China, but in this family, women still can't ask about the affairs of men outside. However, the Yun family's family style is pure, and men are not allowed to get involved in anything inconsistency except for business entertainment outside. This is also one of the reasons why the wealthy businessmen of Minzhou publicly recommended Yun Dekai as the president that year. Moreover, the sister-in-law Xu is a very weak old-fashioned woman, wrapped in small feet, raised in a deep boudoir since she was a child, and received a feudal education of three obedience and four virtues.
Xu lowered his head and silently sandwiched the vegetables for the child. The two children of the eldest brother were very well-behaved, and when they saw their grandfather's stern expression, they buried their heads in eating quietly.
The children of the Yun family are very independent, although Yun Dekai maintains the old-school thinking, but the education of the children is advancing with the times, he stipulates that the children of the Yun family must eat and dress themselves, and cannot ask servants to serve. This is very helpful for children's development.
Yun Dekai hurriedly finished eating, glanced at the cake on the table, seemed to have just remembered, and apologized to his little granddaughter: "Happy birthday!" Grandpa has been so busy these days that he has forgotten our baby's birthday, and tomorrow Grandpa will make up a gift for you! ”
Yun Ni was very sensible and knew how to make his grandfather happy, so he stepped forward, put his arms around Yun Dekai's neck, and kissed him on the face: "Thank you, grandpa!" I love grandpa the most! ”
Yun Dekai touched his granddaughter's head: "Good! He told his wife not to wait for him, and went out to the company again.
Mrs. Yun was afraid that her daughter-in-law would not implement it in her heart, so she patted her hand and comforted: "Although your father is a little stricter, he doesn't want us to worry, and besides, Zirong has also been in business for so many years, and he is not the one who doesn't know the importance of it, so let's not bear that thought in vain." If there is really anything, isn't there still your father? ”
Xu nodded and responded, "What Mom said is that I'm not sensible." ”
Ziyu said: "Come, let's celebrate the birthday of the little princess!" She smiled and took out the candle and lit it with Yunfei and Yunni.
Yunni came over again and hugged her neck and kissed her cheek: "Auntie is the best, Nan Nan loves her aunt the most!" ”
Yun Ziyu laughed: "Hey, don't you love grandpa the most?" ”
The whole family laughed. Mrs. Yun laughed so hard that her stomach hurt: "This little mouth is so sweet, like smeared honey, I don't know who I learned it from!" ”
"No, it's not ......," Yunfei said, "My sister stole candy, and her mouth is so sweet!" ”
"Hehe......" Everyone was amused again, the tense atmosphere just now dissipated a lot, but Yunni pouted and complained: "Brother is bad!" Say yes and don't say it! ”
Although the family was happy later, but Ziyu still couldn't sleep after she went back, she had a gut feeling that something must have happened, she was uneasy in her heart, tossing and turning all night, and couldn't help but think about what happened to the batch of goods at Yufang Wharf, and then thought of what Jiang Dujun said when he left yesterday morning. Barely asleep in a daze, she saw a person standing in front of her, staring at her with a pair of cold eyes, and a cold voice without a trace of temperature: "You will receive a huge surprise!" The cold and cold tail note made the hairs stand on end.
Before Ziyu could react, she saw a flash of the sword, and a shiny military thorn in the man's hand stabbed towards her......
Azusa gasped and almost jumped out of bed. Only then did I realize that I had a dream, and my pajamas were already wet. She got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower, looked at the time, it was ten past four in the morning, it was not yet dawn, it was still raining outside, and the cold raindrops crackled on the glass. Ziyu sat for a while, but finally lay down on the bed again.
Last night, I deliberately asked the rough envoy in the yard to inquire in the concierge, until she went to sleep, her father did not come back, she did not know what happened at the dock, but yesterday afternoon should have been the time when the cargo ship landed, could it be that there was a problem with the goods.
Ziyu usually doesn't care about the family's business, and she has no clue when she thinks about it at this time. This batch of goods arriving on the shore should be cloth, could it be that the continuous rain caused the cloth to get wet? Still is......
Something bad suddenly flashed through her mind, and she hurriedly got up and went to the small study to read the newspaper. In the past two months, the newspapers were piled up in a thick stack, and the rumors were rumored through one by one, but no reports of shipwrecks were found, and everything was normal.
At half past five, Su Xue came up and knocked on the door, saying that Ah Hua had just heard the news that Yufang Wharf had been sealed.
