That night, the west courtyard was noisy, and the candles in the main house lit for most of the night, and the candles were extinguished until almost midnight.

Wu Yuan only learned from the maid's mouth when he got up for breakfast the next day that after they came out of the west courtyard, it was said that Cui's had a big quarrel with Wu Zhonghe in the house, and the angry Wu Zhonghe threw the door and rested in Aunt Yang's courtyard last night.

Wu Yuan knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, it must be Cui's quarrel with his second uncle because of Yongkang's cousin being smashed, although Cui's person is shrewd and calculating, he is a treasure to Wu Yongkang.

When Cui gave birth to Wu Yongkang, he had a dystocia and hemorrhage, and it took three days and three nights to come out of the ghost gate.

Wu Yongkang was small and wrinkled when he was born, and the doctors said that the child could not be raised, so that they were ready to give up, but Cui's insisted on personally taking Wu Yongkang into his house to take care of him, and the children of large families were taken care of by the wet nurse and mother-in-law, and when they reached the age of school, they were assigned to live in the outer courtyard, and Cui's took care of Wu Yongkang until he was ten years old, or the second uncle proposed that the child should go out to live in the branch when he was old, so that he persuaded Cui's for more than half a year, and Cui's agreed.

It wasn't until last year that Wu Yongkang went out to live in the next courtyard, and he naturally developed Wu Yongkang's pampered young master's temper, in the Wu family, Wu Yongkang has always given whatever Cui wants, and even Yongan, the eldest son, has to let his younger brother have a few points, and the brothers are in trouble on weekdays, and it must be Wu Yongan who is scolded and punished for kneeling. Growing so big, Wu Yongkang was beaten for the first time last night.

According to Cui's short-term temperament, I also know how much trouble the West Courtyard made after everyone dispersed last night.

Wu Yuan rubbed his drowsy forehead and let out a sigh, maybe this matter is not over yet, and when the old lady knows about Yongkang being smashed today, she may have to make a fuss for a while.

After breakfast, Wu Yuan went to see the cloves who were still resting in bed, although the cloves looked almost good, but they were all beaten by such a meal, not to mention the daughter's house, even men couldn't stand it, so Wu Yuan still let the cloves be raised.

Lilac lay on the bed, and when she saw Wu Yuan coming in, she hurriedly got up.

Wu Yuan hurriedly asked her to lie down, sat on the bed and said, "Don't move, it's not good if you pull the wound again!" ”

Lilac then lay on her stomach and said: "Miss, the prescription you wrote really works, it will be fine after a few days, and I guess I will be able to work in the field in a few days." ”

"Don't worry, take care of it, otherwise your eldest brother will see you like this, and you won't have to call the door to ask me about the guilt." Wu Yuan said with a smile.

"It's not Miss, you hurt me like this, who harmed me, I remember it in my heart. This time, I was scolded by the old lady, Miss, because I was too impulsive. Lilac sighed, "I don't know if my eldest brother has done that well, and there has been no news for a few days." ”

Wu Yuan smiled and poked Lilac's head, "You should buy vegetables when you buy a house, you buy it when you see it, you have to negotiate the price with others, and you have to go to the yamen to pass the deed, I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about." ”

"Miss, aren't you afraid that my eldest brother will roll up the silver and run away? That's a lot of silver, enough for a lifetime! Lilac asked curiously.

"I'm afraid, that's why I took you here as a hostage, if your eldest brother dares to run away with my silver, then I can't call you well, let you be a cow and a horse, and earn the silver back for me." Wu Yuan said with a chuckle.

Lilac laughed when she heard this, and the wound hissed and hurt, Wu Yuan hurriedly asked when she saw this, and only relieved her mind when she saw that Lilac was fine.

"You take care of it, don't worry about anything, raise yourself well, if there is anything, call the little maid outside, I went to school, and I will come to see you after school."

After Wu Yuan finished speaking, he asked the little maid standing outside the house to take care of him before going to the small cross courtyard.

After school in the evening, Wu Yuan was talking and laughing with Wu Yijin, and met Zhou Biao in the verandah.

"Hello cousin Zhou." Wu Yuan blessed his body.

"Cousin, are you only out of school at this hour?" Zhou Biao asked softly in return.

"I've been out of school for a long time, my sister always has to add an hour every day, I waited for my sister in the embroidery room, my sister invited me to the middle courtyard for dinner, the small kitchen in the middle courtyard is good!" Wu Yijin replied first.

"I didn't expect my cousin to be such a young lady and so diligent and motivated, so I am ashamed of myself and other boys." Zhou Biao said with a smile.

"How can it be as studious as my cousin said, but in order to take care of the middle courtyard, I just asked Mr. Li to add a class." Wu Yuan said softly, "Cousin Zhou, are you going to the West Courtyard?" ”

Zhou Biao's face was a little unnatural in an instant, "What happened last night is always my reason, just came to the Wu family and caused such an incident, the harmful cousin Yongkang was beaten, so I want to go and see Cousin Yongkang." ”

Wu Yijin hurriedly said when she heard this, "Cousin Zhou, I advise you not to go, the second brother is angry, and the second aunt is not very happy." The second aunt is very angry! I heard that I had a big fight with my uncle last night! ”

When Zhou Biao heard this, his face turned pale, he couldn't speak, and muttered, "It's better to go and see it." ”

It seems that Zhou Biao is very afraid of Cui's, and when he heard that Cui's was angry, his face turned white. Wu Yuan was a little sympathetic to him, after all, Wu Yuan was also experiencing the feeling of having to bow his head under the eaves.

What is the use of erudition, students without a foundation background can only rely on high-ranking officials and dignitaries, even if Zhou Biao gets ahead one day, he can't get rid of the mark of the Cui family, he will become the embellishment of the Cui family, he will become the help of the Cui family in the court, this is the price he is carrying by the Cui family today, and it is the kindness that he has to repay with a lifetime.

Seeing this, Wu Yuan didn't say anything, so he gave a blessing and led Wu Yijin through the verandah and back to the middle courtyard.

As soon as Wu Yijin arrived in the middle courtyard, she shouted for Yuzhu to quickly order the small kitchen to make begonia cakes, and Yuzhu pursed her lips and smiled.

"Sister, that cousin Zhou is really stupid, the West Courtyard is making a fuss like that, and he still goes to visit people, it's not awkward." Wu Yijin leaned on the Fushou thick cushion and said.

"He is a guest, and this matter has something to do with him, so it is reasonable to visit, and people understand etiquette." Wu Yuan said lightly.

At this time, the little maid respectfully served the refreshments, and the begonia crisp in the small kitchen was also ready and sent in, Wu Yijin picked one up and sent it to her mouth, Wu Yuan saw this and asked the maid to bring a handkerchief to clean her hands and hand it to Wu Yijin to wipe her hands.

"If it's me, I'm not going, how awkward, I have a straight face and go to say something." Wu Yijin took advantage of the tabby's inattention and saved it at once.

"Cousin Zhou himself will know what to say, why are you worrying so much." Wu Yuan chuckled and looked at Wu Yijin and said.

Wu Yijin's face flushed, "I just think he's pitiful, he caused trouble on the first day he came to our house." I don't know how he can live with peace of mind. ”

Wu Yuan smiled and didn't speak, he couldn't imagine that Yi Jin would have thoughts about Zhou Biao's daughter's family at a young age.

Wu Yijin was about to pounce when she saw Wu Yuan like this, and said half-shyly: "Sister, what are you laughing at?" ”

"I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at tabby!" Wu Yuan caught the tabby and hugged it in his arms, "The tabby is getting fatter and fatter the more he eats, how can he go out to play with other little cats like this!" ”

Seeing this, Wu Yijin pounced and was about to make trouble with Wu Yuan, the two laughed and quarreled for a while, and their buns were crooked.

Wu Yuan called the maid to come in and freshen up the two.
