Chapter 25: Soup kitchen

When Wanyue and Yinqi returned to the mansion, it was already midnight, and except for the guards who were keeping vigil at the door, the others had already gone to rest.

After wearing a day of flowerpot bottom shoes, Wanyue's feet hurt tightly, Yinqi's interest was not bad, and she wanted to follow Yue'er back to Xinuan Pavilion to rest, but Yue'er refused.

When he saw Yue'er yawning, he knew that she was sleepy, and he didn't force it anymore. The hour was not early, and he had to enter the palace in the morning, so he had to go to the study in the front yard alone.

As soon as Wanyue returned to her room, Yuzhi hurriedly greeted her: "Little master, you are back." ”

Wanyue walked towards the chair while moving her steps, and glanced back at Yuzhi: "Yuzhi, you go and see if there is anyone in the dining room who is on duty for the night, if there is, let them boil some hot water, I want to bathe." ”

After speaking, Yuzhi nodded, hurriedly retreated, and ran in the direction of the dining room.

Mama Wang's feet were also a little painful, Wanyue yawned, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and said to Mama Wang: "Mama, you went out with me for a day today, you go to rest first, and let Yuzhi serve me for a while." ”

When Mama Wang heard this, she was a little ashamed, Miss felt sorry for her, she insisted on it if she could.

"Miss, although I am old, I am not so squeamish, and it will not take much time to serve you in the bath."

Wanyue raised her hand to remove the pearl on her head, turned around, glanced at Mama Wang, and took Mama Wang's hand, her eyes were full of sincerity.

"Mama, you just go and rest, it doesn't take so many people to serve me to bathe, if you shirk me again, I'll be angry!"

Mama Wang had no choice but to smile, knowing that she couldn't resist the young lady, so she had to leave the house and go back to the ear room of Xinuan Pavilion to sleep.

Although it was not early, there were still some lights on sporadically in each room in Baylor's Mansion at this time, Yuzhi prepared hot water and poured it into the bathing bucket, and put some rose petals in it, and Wanyue undressed and bathed.

Yuzhi scrubbed her very carefully, meticulously, and let go of Wanyue's fingers, but this kind of minutiae, the tired Wanyue didn't pay attention to it.

The comfort and relaxation brought by the hot water swept through her body, making Wanyue forget her troubles for a while.

She squinted, put her hands on both ends of the bath bucket, and felt the movements of Yuzhi's hands very indifferently.

Yuzhi scooped up hot water from the bath bucket, poured it from the back of Wanyue's neck, and then used a towel dipped in water to scrub Wanyue's body over and over again, and rubbed layers of foam with bath balm and rubbed it on Wanyue's skin, wiping it like this, scrubbing it, washing it again, and repeating it several times before giving up.

After scrubbing, Yuzhi specially put down Wanyue's hair and combed it.

Wanyue felt the tiredness on her body relax again, and finally dried it with a towel before Wanyue walked out of the bath bucket.

She relaxed a lot, she slept very deeply this night, and when she woke up, it was already too late.

Fortunately, because Guarjia Yinan is pregnant, the matter of asking for peace on a fixed day will be avoided, otherwise Wanyue will definitely be dissatisfied if she gets up so late.

Mama Wang waited for her to get up and wash, and when she came out, the meal was already on the rosewood table.

Yuzhi stood quietly at the rosewood table, Wanyue glanced at her, and then looked at the steamed buns and rice porridge on the table, Wanyue's face sank visibly.

"How come the meals are back to the way they used to be!" Wanyue chuckled in her heart, the change in this meal really overwhelmed her.

Yuzhi hung her head, for fear that the little master would think that she was not doing a good job, and the dining room deliberately treated her like this and blamed her, and hurriedly explained: "I asked the dining room, and it was ordered by Lord Belle, and meat is not allowed in the recent meals. ”

This meal made Wanyue's heart very dull, and when Lord Belle spoke, she had no choice but to settle.

Mama Wang specially inquired with the housekeeper Yan, and then she found out what happened, it turned out that the Yellow River had recently flooded, and there had been displaced people in the capital.

Wanyue understands and knows Lord Belle's temperament, in his previous life, Lord Belle often paid out of his own pocket to give alms to the victims, he has not changed after all, and he still has a great sense of justice.

Wanyue thought to herself that it was okay, she was happy to eat a little bit by herself, but she could help more people.

But if there are more silver taels, more people can be relieved.

Wanyue pondered, remembering the business plan given to her by her ninth brother, she hadn't done it yet, and she was a little anxious for a while.

On the day of the soup kitchen in Baylor Mansion, Brother Jiu Yinyu actually came out of the palace to help.

The dining room boiled six pots of porridge from the beginning of the hour to the end of the day, and the homeless people who came to the gate of Baylor Mansion to drink the porridge finally drank the porridge, and everyone rested.

Wanyue raised her somewhat sour arm, looked at the homeless people drinking porridge on the side, sighed, and was stunned for a while, she really admired Lord Belle's self-sacrificing sentiment.

After a while, she felt that someone was watching her, and she turned her head to see that it was actually the ninth brother.

The two were silent for a while, and Brother Jiu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "Fifth sister-in-law, have you finished the business plan I wrote to you last time?" ”

"This ...... I haven't found a suitable shop yet......" Wan Yue replied in a slurred manner, speaking without confidence.

Brother Nine looked at the fifth sister-in-law, thoughtfully, the expression on her face had betrayed her, and Brother Nine was a little crazy.

"Alas! Haven't found a shop yet? Fifth sister-in-law, your speed ......."

Brother Jiu was angry in his heart, these five sisters-in-law are too unreliable.

Wanyue pulled out a smile embarrassedly, and when Brother Jiu saw the fifth sister-in-law tearing a big smile at him, he was also embarrassed to have a seizure, so he had to shake his head and return a helpless expression to the fifth sister-in-law.

"Fifth sister-in-law, how much money do you have?" Brother Jiu asked.

"Just a few hundred taels......" Wanyue sighed and lowered her tone.

Yinqi tilted her ears and eavesdropped on her side Fujin and the ninth brother's conversation, she thought about it for a while, as if there were fewer things that were given to Yue'er on weekdays.

"A few hundred taels? This is a little ......" Brother Jiu's eyes were full of confusion, with a little helplessness, unreliable, unreliable, too unreliable, these five sisters-in-law want him to contribute both money and effort as the ninth brother!

Wanyue was a little weak-hearted, a few hundred taels was already a huge amount of money for her, but she didn't expect the ninth brother to care so much, "Then if you don't get the profits, you will occupy the eighth layer...... I occupy two floors. ”

Brother Jiu glanced at Wanyue in surprise, and when he saw the fifth brother looking at him and his fifth sister-in-law meaningfully, he had no choice but to nod aggrievedly.

If it weren't for the fifth brother, he would never have done such a loss-making business.

The homeless people at the gate of Baylor Mansion gradually dispersed after drinking the porridge, and the small servants in the house specially moved the pots and pans of the soup kitchen back to the dining room.

There was still an hour left when it was dark, and Brother Jiu waved at Wubeile Yinqi and said, "Fifth brother, I want to take my fifth sister-in-law to see the shop." ”

Wan Yue's face was also a little shocked, the ninth brother said bluntly, wouldn't he let Lord Belle know about the two of them doing business?!

Yinqi was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he nodded and instructed, "Well, you two go early and come back early." ”

Wan Yue glanced at Lord Belle in astonishment, and saw that his face was as usual, she must have known about her partnering with the ninth brother to do business.

She seemed more comfortable, and the ninth brother took Wanyue all the way to the Xingsheng Restaurant outside the Zhengyang Gate, and the second child in the restaurant obviously saw the ninth elder brother, and when he saw him, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

The ninth brother, the prince, is also outstanding among the elder brothers, and he does things exactly the same, and there is a tendency for the back waves to urge the front waves.

However, there are too many outstanding princes of the old man, but it seems that the qualifications of the ninth brother are ordinary.
