Chapter 66: Uncle
When he left from the Terracotta Hutong and returned to Wu's house, Wu Yuan was holding a banquet in the Wu Mansion, Wu Yuan thought that he would not go over, anyway, he was in the name of a bad star, and he would not be welcomed if he went, and he slipped out for an afternoon, and he was very tired when he came back in a hurry, so he went back to Zhuxuan directly for dinner.
At this time, Mama Zhu, who was next to the old lady, came to Zhuxuan and asked Wu Yuan why she didn't use the yard.
Wu Yuan said softly: "Today is a good day for the eldest brother to become the son of the sect, I will not go because of my ominous body, and I also asked Mama Zhu to tell my grandmother that my granddaughter has already had dinner." β
Mama Zhu looked at Wu Yuan for a while, then sighed, and stopped talking out of Zhuxuan.
After sending Mama Zhu away, Wu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the house to discuss with Lilac about leaving the house.
Chun Tao and Yuzhu were taken aback when they heard that Lilac was going to leave the house, and hurriedly asked what was going on, she thought that Lilac chose to leave the house when she couldn't stay in Zhuxuan, and she was complaining in her heart that Lilac couldn't share weal and woe together, and she was ready to leave when she saw that the young lady was in trouble.
After Lilac explained to them, Chun Tao felt much more relieved.
Wu Yuan is ready to let Lilac go out after not only following the red sleeves to learn some skills, but also pay more attention to the situation outside, if they have to leave the Wu family, they really have no support, only the remaining silver taels left by the Zhuang family and the mansion, they can't sit on the empty mountain, after buying the house, these silver taels are no longer enough.
Besides, Wu Yuan has always had an idea in her heart that she didn't tell them, she wants to do business, she can't be a boudoir woman who stays at home, her situation does not allow her to be like others, she wants to find out the truth of the case back then, she wants to take back what belongs to her, and the most important thing is to overturn the case and take her father back from Qiongzhou in a dignified manner!
Wu Yuan looked out the window firmly, no matter what, she couldn't let the second room's plan succeed, even if she risked her life.
On the second day, Wu Yuan was going to school in the small cross courtyard when he saw Chun Tao hurriedly looking for him.
Wu Yuan was shocked, thinking that something had happened to Zhuxuan, could it be that the house they had purchased outside was discovered by the Wu family?
Wu Yuan hurriedly walked out and left Wu Yijin, who was embroidering, confused.
"What's wrong, how did you find here? Did something happen to Zhuxuan? Or is there something going on over there? Wu Yuan asked vaguely.
Chun Tao hurriedly said: "It's the uncle who is back, and now I'm waiting for you in the front hall, and the second master is talking with the uncle." β
Hearing the news of his uncle's return to Yangzhou, Wu Yuan happily went in and said to Li Qing, Li Qing responded and asked her to go quickly, and Wu Yuan and Chun Tao walked quickly to the front hall.
As soon as I arrived in the front hall, sure enough, my uncle was sitting in the front hall and laughing with my second uncle.
Seeing Wu Yuan, Zhuang Zhiyong stood up all of a sudden, greeted him with a smile, and Wu Yuan hurriedly saluted his uncle.
Zhuang Zhiyong helped Wu Yuan get up with a smile, "I haven't seen Yuan Niang for more than half a year, and Yuan Niang has grown into a big girl!" β
Wu Yuan felt a little shy when he heard this, so he saluted his second uncle.
"Okay, since Yuan Niang is here, I won't bother you talking, there are still a few shopkeepers waiting in the study, Brother Zhuang, I can't let you go today, I have ordered you to go down, today you must give the little brother a little thin noodles, let the little brother make a banquet for you!" Wu Zhonghe said with a smile.
Zhuang Zhiyong thought about it, so he didn't shirk it, and responded with a smile.
After Wu Zhonghe went out, Zhuang Zhiyong asked Wu Yuan with a smile how he had been doing in the past six months, and Wu Yuan smiled and said that he was all right.
Wu Yuan didn't want to tell his uncle what happened for most of the year, but he was afraid that he would scare his uncle away in the name of a bad star.
Chun Tao stood aside and muttered quietly: "Miss has suffered a lot of sins in the past six monthsγγγγγγ β
Wu Yuan hurriedly glanced at Chun Tao and warned Chun Tao not to talk nonsense.
Zhuang Zhiyong saw the actions of the two of them, frowned, and asked, "But you got into trouble again, making the old lady of the Wu family unhappy?" β
Wu Yuan hurriedly said: "No, no, it's all a matter of subordinates, my grandmother treats me very well, my second uncle treats me very well, uncle, don't think about it." β
Zhuang Zhiyong saw at a glance that Wu Yuan was covering up, and asked Chun Tao in a deep voice.
Chun Tao looked at the subordinates who were waiting in the hall, and she didn't dare to speak, "It's the slave who talks too much, and the eldest lady is all rightγγγγγγ β
Zhuang Zhiyong looked at the subordinates who were serving here, although they all lowered their heads to the ground, their eyes kept glancing at them.
Zhuang Zhiyong picked up the teacup and said lightly: "It's okay, so my uncle can rest assured." β
After taking a sip of tea, Zhuang Zhiyong frowned and said: "Why is this tea not the new Longjing this year, the water is not right, and the temperature is not good, your eldest lady likes Furui Zhai's dim sum the most, I bought some when I came, put it in the carriage and forgot it, go and let my little servant bring it in." β
A small guy hurriedly stepped forward, removed the tea cup, and went to change the tea, and the other guy hurriedly went outside to find the Zhuang guy to get refreshments after hearing the order.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Zhuang Zhiyong asked Chun Tao seriously what was going on.
Chun Tao said in a low voice: "Since the eldest lady came back from Shangxiang, there have been rumors that the young lady is a bad starγγγγγγ Then the young lady was rushed to live in Zhuxuan. β
Zhuang Zhiyong was shocked when he heard this, but after half a year of hard work, how could Wu Yuan fall into such a field!
How do he have to explain this to his sister!
When he just returned to Yangzhou yesterday, he also heard the rumor that the eldest lady of the Wu family was a disaster star, and he thought that it was just a rumor spread by people outside, so he didn't take it to heart, thinking that the old lady of the Wu family would personally raise Wu Yuan to grow up, and he should not listen to the rumors outside, and when he left, he specially handed a message to the second master Wu and asked him to take care of Wu Yuan.
Unexpectedly, Wu Yuan was not only named a disaster star, but also drove her out of the middle courtyard, isn't this a confirmation that Wu Yuan is a disaster star!
Thinking of this, Zhuang Zhi stood up angrily and said angrily: "What a Wu family, is it true that our Yuan Niang is lonely?" It's too much to take our bookmaker in mind! If he is unkind, he will blame me for being unjust! Let's go, you come with me now! I'll take you back to the dealer's house! Don't wait for this place! It just so happens that your grandmother has been talking about you and has been asking me to take you back. Although our dealer is not as generous as the Wu family, but it is also a figure with a head and a face in Liangjiang, when you get to the banker, you are the eldest lady of the banker, I think who dares to say that you are a disaster star! β
After speaking, Zhuang Zhiyong asked Chun Tao to go back to pack his luggage, and he was about to leave with Wu Yuan.
When Chun Tao heard this, she hurriedly rejoiced and wanted to go back to Zhuxuan to clean up.
Wu Yuan hurriedly stopped Chun Tao and dissuaded his uncle, "This won't work, uncle!" You just don't know anything! This is my home, and as long as they don't let me go, I won't leave! β
Zhuang Zhi slapped the table angrily and said, "What are you still doing here!" They're doing it to you! Come with me! If the Wu family dares to come to investigate, there is an uncle to support you! Am I still afraid that he Wu Lao Er will not succeed! β
