Chapter 413: Acting as a housekeeper
On the second day of the Shangyuan Festival, almost everyone in the capital got up late.
The streets were filled with sulfur and gunpowder, and the ground was littered with scraps of paper and candles.
After breakfast, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the people after the carnival looked a little listless.
Wei Yining's sister and brother did not go out, and they all stayed with Mrs. Zhu.
In the afternoon, the three brothers Shao Nan came to visit their grandmother and sat for about two hours.
Before leaving, Mrs. Zhu said, "Yining, you can send off the three brothers for me." ”
It happened that Bao Shi also walked in the door, and when he saw that the three brothers were leaving, he hurriedly said, "I'm coming over to ask you if you want to eat anything at night?" Why did you leave? Everyone is idle in the first month of the year. ”
"Thank you, aunt, let's not bother us and come back another day." Shao Nan said politely.
Shao Tong didn't like to see Bao, so he just arched his hand and left.
Wei Yining sent the three brothers out, and Shao Tong asked her in a low voice, "There's nothing going on in this mansion recently, right?" Did the Bao family engage in any conspiracy? ”
"Thank you second brother for still thinking about it, it shouldn't be anything now, but I don't know what will happen in the future." Wei Yining said.
"What you told me before was actionable? Need help? Shao Tong asked Wei Yining.
"I already told Lord Yan yesterday." Wei Yining told the truth: "He will leave in a few days." ”
"Yan Qi has always been very safe, and there should be no mistakes." Shao Tong said.
"I hope so." Wei Yining lowered his eyes and said.
"In my opinion, you'd better beat the old woman surnamed Guo every once in a while," Shao Yang interjected on the side: "I always feel that she is not a peaceful master." ”
"Third brother, don't worry, I'll pay attention." Wei Yining said.
"I heard that Aunt He was locked up." Shao Nan said: "Yining, do you know what cards the Bao family is going to play?" ”
"I can't say it now, Bao's scheming has always been deep." Wei Yining said: "But I think she will attack us sooner or later, but I don't know who is faster than me or her." ”
"You have to be more careful yourself, just open your mouth where you need us." Shao Tong said: "But only before my wedding, after the wedding, I don't have any extra effort to take care of your business." ”
Shao Nan laughed angrily when he heard this, and said: "The first half of the sentence still sounds like human words, and the second half of the sentence is really underwhelming." ”
Wei Yining also laughed, sent the three brothers to the car, and turned around and came back.
In Mrs. Zhu's room, Bao was talking to the old lady.
"I haven't been able to sleep well these days, and I have to wake up several times a night. It's probably because of my own unquiet mind, thinking that there is nothing to do now, so I will go to live in the temple where Yi Mi cultivates for a few days. Bao said a little tiredly.
"It's better for you to go and live, it's always better to have her with you." Mrs. Zhu expressed her understanding.
"So I'm here to discuss with the old lady, I'm not at home these days, so I'll bother Yining to take care of the housekeeper for me." Bao said this not only to Mrs. Zhu, but also to Wei Yining, who had just entered the door.
"She's still a child, how can she take care of the house." Mrs. Zhu said, "It's better to let Aunt Sang take care of it." ”
"What's not to be able to do with this? Yining is also fifteen years old, and her temperament has always been calm, so I have nothing to worry about. Bao said: "What's more, there are not a few days in total." ”
"Okay, just let her stare at it for a few days." Mrs. Zhu said: "It's just that he is a child after all, and you have to take care of more mistakes in the family." ”
"Look at what the old lady said, you don't need to use people to be suspicious, I still understand this truth." Bao said with a smile.
Wei Yining stood aside, looking as usual.
But in her heart, she felt that it didn't seem appropriate for Bao to let herself be in charge, but since the old lady had already agreed for her, she had no way to refuse.
What's more, if he resigns too resolutely, he is afraid that it will arouse Bao's vigilance.
After dinner, Wei Yining returned to his yard and asked Chunjiao to quietly call Mother Guo.
"Madame told me to take care of her house for a few days, what is there to say here?" Wei Yining went straight to the point and asked the country's mother.
"It's nothing, Madame just wants to go and stay with the eldest lady for a few days." Guo's mother said: "She said that Aunt Sang is too timid, and Aunt Chen is careless, and she is useless. ”
"How long is Madame going?" Wei Yining asked.
"If you say you will get up on the 20th, you will stay for half a month at most." Mother Guo said.
"I see, you go down." Wei Yining didn't ask any more.
A few days later, Bao really went out on the twentieth day of the first month.
She brought a few maids with her, but left Guo's mother in the house, saying that she asked her to help Wei Yining.
Although Bao asked Wei Yining to take care of the house, Wei Yining did not trust him, and every day he called Guo's mother and others to act in accordance with the rules set by Bao before, and personally took people to check everywhere before turning off the lights at night before going back to the room to sleep.
It was safe for a few days.
On this day, Wei Hongan was going out, so Wei Yining asked his entourage to follow him.
The carriage was set up and waited in front of the gate of the house, Wei Hongan had just left the gate and was about to get on the car, when suddenly a ragged woman rushed out, hugged Wei Hongan and cried: "He Lang! Why don't you recognize your mother? I'm your mother! ”
Wei Hongan recognized this woman, the one who recognized herself as her son on the day of Shangyuan Day.
He said while breaking free: "This aunt, you have recognized the wrong person, I am not your son." ”
But the woman did not let go, and said, "How can a mother confess her son by mistake, I will never admit it, you see this scar on your hand, it was cut by playing with scissors." ”
Wei Hongan did have a scar on the back of his hand, but Wei Yining couldn't tell where the scar came from.
only said that it should have been Wei Hongan who had been separated from him for more than a year.
"Son, you can't be poor and love rich." The woman said, "They all say that the son is not ugly, the dog is not poor, I have come all the way to find you, how can you disown me?" ”
At this time, the family members of the Wei family and many pedestrians on the road stood in front of them, and the family members came up to drive the woman, and the woman simply sat on the ground and wailed, crying and complaining.
Wei Yining heard the noise in front and wanted to go over to take a look, who wanted to go over and say from behind: "Fifth girl, it's not good, Aunt He has a stomachache, you go over and take a look." ”
Wei Yining said: "Call someone to invite the doctor, don't go back to the old lady first, save her from worrying." ”
At this time, the Wei family's family finally pulled the woman away, and Wei Hongan and the attendants got into the carriage.
The coachman raised his whip, and the carriage was gone.
Mother Guo happened to come out and asked, "What does the noise look like?!" When is this a place to sell vegetables? Hurry up and send two people to ask the doctor to come. ”
