Chapter 404: Rumors Spread
But no matter what you want to do, you can't go out now, and you can only wait patiently for a month, but in addition to paying close attention to Wei Ziqi's movements, it's not bad, since he came to Changling, Wuzhan has almost no free time, but it's really as Su Lijiu said, as a vacation, it's also comfortable to accompany his wife and daughter in the house.
There is a martial arts in the house, she can free her hands to go to the restaurant a few more times, Huan'er followed her, to say that Huan'er came to the martial arts house to do things, only to know that her wife is different from the ordinary young lady, not only understand medical skills, but also do her own business.
Manxiangju has been open in Changling for more than two years, and now almost everyone knows about it, and she just knew that this boss is actually Hu Man who is serving herself.
"Madame, you're amazing!" As Huan'er, I really haven't come here to eat, I've never come in, just listening to what others say is good, this look, it's really different from any restaurant, and the guests are almost full.
"Do you want to learn?" Hu Man took a pile of ledgers handed over by the shopkeeper to the backyard to see, the backyard was almost the same as before, and people often came to clean it.
Huan'er smiled embarrassedly: "The slave doesn't have the ability of a lady, and she doesn't know a word, I'm afraid she can't do it." โ
Hu Man was looking through the account book while planning to disk, she also came here, after doing business, she practiced a good abacus, I didn't like to use it before, I think the modern addition, subtraction, multiplication and division is so good!
But then the business was better, and there were more accounts, which was added on paper, but it was troublesome, and she began to use the abacus, and slowly became proficient in discovering the unexpected speed and accuracy, and the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.
"You don't need to learn too many words to settle accounts, just like if you can't read, you can count money, right? You know how much money is on the silver ticket, right? It's a human gift. โ
Huan'er couldn't help but watch Hu Man's slender and beautiful fingers dance on the abacus like flowers: "The slave maid should serve Mrs. well!" This kind of thing doesn't dare to touch it, and if something goes wrong, the slave can't afford it. โ
Hu Man stopped: "I have to do my job well, but if I want to get better and better, I must be motivated!" It's not bad for you, you know the last one who followed me, right? She used to only work hard, originally to protect me, but then she ran around with me, and she learned a lot, and she knew a little about taking care of accounts and business, and now she is the young lady of the richest family in Changling! โ
"Really?" Huan'er had heard that there was a lady's maid who married the son of the richest man, but she never thought that she would have such good luck as others.
Hu Man tugged at the corners of his mouth, it was true that he had learned something, but he didn't marry into it because of this, Huan'er was still simple in the end, Hu Man nodded seriously: "So, don't always say that your life is not good, no matter how bad you are, can you be as bad as me?" At that time, I couldn't eat enough food in the ravines! Work harder, and it will always get better. โ
Huan'er nodded hurriedly: "That slave is willing to learn!" โ
"That's right." Hu Man pointed: "Pull the stool over and sit down, and I'll teach you while I calculate." โ
Of course, Hu Man also has the heart to teach her, but it is also to cultivate people who can really help themselves, not a girl who will only serve trivial things, she can let go of many things before Yezhi, after Yezhi got married, she suddenly had more things, these years, those who have the ability can be found, but those who can be trusted still have to bring it up by themselves.
Unconsciously busy until noon, Hu Man rubbed his eyebrows, a little tired and panicked, in fact, Huan'er was more tired than her, and she was ignorant when she listened, so she got up and poured a cup of tea for Hu Man: "Madame, let's rest and then count!" โ
Hu Man nodded, and watched it for a long time, this girl is quite smart, but the foundation is too poor, and illiteracy is a big flaw, it seems that someone has to find someone to teach it from scratch!
"Let's go, hungry, aren't you? Let's eat first. Hu Man took Huan'er to the restaurant and sat down, just about to ask the guy to cook some dishes, the shopkeeper hurriedly came in from outside the restaurant, and rushed over when he saw Hu Man: "Boss, it's a big deal!" โ
Hu Man looked up blankly: "What's the matter?" โ
The shopkeeper looked left and right, there were many guests, and he hurriedly whispered: "You come to the backyard with me!" โ
Hu Man had never seen the steady Uncle Qi like this, his heart was also hanging, he got up and went to the backyard with him, and the shopkeeper said: "I don't know what is going on with you and what your identity is, but it is very rumored outside!" โ
"What identity? What's wrong? Hu Man was confused.
The shopkeeper sighed: "I just went to the next cloth village, he knew that you were the proprietress and asked me a few words, I just knew, he said... He said......"
"What are you talking about?"
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth: "He said that Master Wu's life experience is not clean!" โ
Hu Man's face changed in an instant, and his first reaction was could it be that his life experience was leaked out? It shouldn't be! Until now, only a few people closest to them know about this, and even Wu Yuan and them don't know about it!
She took a deep breath to calm herself: "How did it get out there?" You tell me word for word! โ
"He told me that the life experience of this martial artist has something to do with Concubine Zhen, who has long passed away!"
Did it really get out?! Beads of sweat broke out on the tip of Hu Man's nose: "And then?" โ
"Yes, yes, it's the father of the current Master Wu, isn't it the former Imperial Forest Army? It was the concubine who was promoted, and then the emperor died, the two of them, the two of them got along, and then the concubine became pregnant, he could only resign and take the child away from Changling, that child is Master Wu! Although I don't believe it, I am afraid that many people will believe what is said outside that there is a nose and eyes! โ
Hu Man felt worried after hearing this, but he was relieved, fortunately it was not the truth, but the question was why did this rumor come out? Is it still so close to the truth? Although this matter is false, as long as the rumors are together, it is bound that many good people will coax, and many people will believe that it will definitely have a great impact on Wu Zhan and Uncle Wu!
It was too late to eat, Hu Man hurriedly took Huan'er back to the house in a hurry, but as soon as he returned to the house, he saw that Wuyuan Su was in the nine martial arts, and his face was quite ugly: "You know? โ
Su Lijiu nodded: "We also just heard about it, I'm afraid it just came out, but it spread too fast, and the entire Changling Tomb is almost all over it!" โ
"How so?" Hu Man took a breath and sat down on the side: "What can I do now?" โ
Wu Yuan gritted his teeth: "I have already sent someone to Qingguo Temple to pick up my father back!" But brother, what I don't understand is that although I don't believe that my father is this kind of person, but what do those people say has real evidence, saying that when my father married my mother, he already took you with him, what the hell is going on? โ
"Then why don't you ask Dad?" Wu Zhan is not in a good mood, although this is not a fact, but it is really close to the truth, it's just that someone got the wrong object when they investigated!
Wu Yuan was in a complicated mood, and looked at Wu Zhan, if those were true, his father and mother already had Wu Zhan before they got married, then Wu Zhan was not his eldest brother at all? Or is it a half-brother?
"Now that it's all spreading, the important thing is how to deal with it." Su Lijiu slapped his hands twice: "Originally, you were stared at now, and during the punishment period, if this is confirmed, it is different from other crimes, even the emperor has to deal with you!" โ
That's right, Wu Zhan is also thinking, although the emperor knows the truth, he knows that these rumors are false, but it really gets out of control, and it is impossible for him to stand up and admit that he and the concubine are not clear, and he is his child, right? At that time, in order to quell the rumors, will he really use himself to protect his reputation? He wasn't sure in his mind.
And who is behind him slandering him? It's really vicious enough to come up with such an idea!
"Go back first!" Wu Zhan waved his hand: "Let me be quiet, I will also send someone to find out who is walking, and the rest, wait for my father to come back!" Then he got up and went back to the house.
Hu Man sighed lightly, only she knew that Wu Zhan's heart was entangled and uncomfortable, although he was not the child of Concubine Zhen and Wu Linchuan, but the truth could be said to be even worse than this, he must be worried that if one day his true life experience was revealed, what kind of earth-shattering would it be!
The rumors spread like a whirlwind, and people came to the Wu Mansion in the afternoon, and Wu Zhan didn't see anyone, Hu Man dealt with a few words and sent him back, and when he returned to the room, Wu Zhan was leaning against the head of the bed, not knowing what he was thinking.
Hu Man walked in front of him and squatted down, looking up at him: "Worried? โ
Wu Zhan lowered his head, his face was indescribably tired: "Manman, I'm so tired." โ
Hu Man suddenly felt distressed, he thought that revenge would be the end of everything, but who knew that in exchange for a heavier burden to be pressed down, no matter how strong a man is, it is difficult to parry, than to find out the facts, more difficult than revenge, is the torment in his heart, and always be afraid of the torture of being exposed.
Hu Man got up and hugged him: "If you're tired, take a break, don't force yourself." โ
"But someone forced me." Wu Zhan's voice was muffled: "Shan Qianhai forced me, the person who wanted to harm me forced me, and... A mother who has never met. โ
"You know what I like most about you? You are honest and responsible, but sometimes, this is also your shortcoming, don't take everything for granted, sometimes living happily is the most important thing, I may be a little selfish when I say this, but people can't be too selfless, can't always live for others! โ
"But if you really don't care about it, can you really let go of it?" Wu Zhan closed his eyes: "Let me be quiet, it's okay after today, nothing can crush a person, whoever wants to deal with me, come on!" I'm going to fight. โ
Hu Man sighed, she herself was entangled, on the one hand, she liked him very much and dared to face it, and sometimes she really wanted him to be selfish, tangled and entangled, and she couldn't bear to embarrass him, and finally chose to respect his decision, anyway, no matter what she faced, she was with him.
