Wanfu

There are very few people in the house, Li Yun dismissed the maids in the house, leaving only two servants, and the two servants will also be dismissed after the funeral of Wan's father.

Wan Mingji knelt in front of the coffin when he came to the main hall, and next to him was his mother Li Yun. Li Yun was born in a wealthy family, and after marrying Master Wan, he gave birth to his eldest son Wan Mingji and his elder brother Wan Xiuyue. There are also three aunts in Wanfu, most of them are young and beautiful people, and after hearing that the Wan family was down, they begged Li Yun to let them go, and now they are all gone.

It's just that an Aunt Yun gave birth to her brother Wan Xiubai, this person is a rotten heart, and before leaving, she sold her brother to be a slave and swept away her son's money.

Li Yun almost fell ill with anger, and it took some silver money to redeem Wan Xiubai back. If she sells her concubine to others as a slave, she, the mother of the house, will have no shame on her face, and she will also affect the reputation of Wan Mingji and Wan Xiuyue, Li Yun has to bring Wan Xiubai back.

The main hall was silent, Wan Mingji knelt for two hours, and Li Yun coughed lightly: "Get up and go to dinner." ”

"Yes, mother."

Wan Mingji followed behind Li Yun, Wan Xiuyue followed Wan Mingji side by side, his eyes were still slightly red, Master Wan loved Wan Mingji and Wan Xiuyue very much in the world, and Wan Xiuyue had deep feelings for Master Wan.

The three of them sat down, and on the table was a bowl of gruel and a plate of pickled cabbage for rice. Wan Mingji was a young and strong man who drank the gruel with a bowl.

"There are still four days to finish the master's funeral, I have already arrived at the house, the master's hometown is in Linshui Village, there are twenty acres of land over there, a tiled house, we will go there to live." Li Yun said.

"Mingji, it's inconvenient for you to study in Dongtian Academy, so rent a small courtyard and wait for the filial piety period before making plans." When Li Yun talked about his son, tears flashed in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth at Master Wan.

It's just the time for Wan Mingji to take the hospital exam, which delayed his son's efforts for three years! After Master Wan's death, it was revealed that he owed a huge debt, which made Li Yun angry, and her son's future was delayed!

"Mother, we don't have any money in our hands, I thought about it on the way back, I plan to study at home and save the money first. In the study tour, my knowledge has also increased a lot, and it is still possible to take a show test within three years. ”

"I'll talk about this later, my mother can't delay your future." Li Yun has found that her son has changed a lot from the correspondence with her son, and she attributed these to the experience of studying abroad, which added a little comfort to her heart.

Wan Xiuyue wiped her tears and said, "Mother, why don't we go to my grandmother's house?" "He didn't want to go to the country and become a country brother, and his grandmother loved them the most.

"After all, the family still has land and houses, and our grandmother is causing trouble." Li Yundao.

She didn't want her sons to feel the pain under the fence. It's not her mother who is in charge at home, she also has two brothers who live with her mother, and two sisters-in-law, nephews and nieces, this family is enough, plus they are an unsettled account.

Wan Xiuyue still longed to go to her grandmother's house to continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, but he couldn't speak again, so he could only press his temper and cry again.

He is just a little brother, from the county seat to Linshui Village, from a pampered brother to a country brother, the family is poor, Wan Xiuyue is not ready, his heart is uneasy, and he is afraid.

"Don't be afraid, there's still a big brother here." Wan Mingji put his hand on Wan Xiuyue's shoulder, and his tone was calm.

Wan Xiuyue felt that his brother had changed, he nodded, and the panic in his heart dissipated a little. The old man in the family is gone, and there is a man who is the elder brother, no matter how confused the brother was before, it is good to have a man in the family to support him.

"Tomorrow I will take all the jewelry and sell the clothes, and exchange them for a few coarse linen clothes, and the rest of the money will be left for furniture." Li Yun said.

Wan Xiuyue nodded and accepted her fate: "Got it, mother." ”

"I still have fifty taels of silver on my study trip, and this is a silver ticket." Wan Mingji gave Li Yun the silver ticket on his body, and asked Li Yun to arrange what furniture to buy and what things to add, he really didn't know much about these.

Wan Mingji laughed: "Mother, my son didn't eat enough for a bowl of gruel." ”

"There's still one in the kitchen." Li Yun saw that Wan Mingji did not feel resentment, and the burden in her heart was also a lot less, what she was most afraid of was that her son was resentful, and the family was not harmonious, so that day was even more sad. Now that Mingji is sensible, the business will slowly improve in this day.

"Madame, no! The third young master jumped into the pond! A little guy shouted in a panic.

"What kind of sin is this, did you save him?"

"Madam, the little one doesn't dare to go to the third young master." The little guy Nuo Nuo said.

There should be a big defense of men and women, men and brothers, Li Yun was dizzy, this mother and son will really cause trouble for her. Wan Mingji walked out of the kitchen as early as the little guy was talking, and he was sinking alone in the pond.

"Third Young Master, don't think about it." Another guy took out a long bamboo pole and asked Wan Xiubai to grab it.

Wan Xiubai thought that he was sold to Renyazi by his mother, and Renyazi had to buy him into the Qinglou, his tears kept flowing down, now his mother doesn't want him, he was also sold to Renyazi, it is better to die and let his wife worry. He didn't grab the bamboo pole and let himself sink.

"Big Young Master, you're finally here, come and save the Third Young Master!" The little guy saw a slender white figure from a distance and shouted.

Wan Mingji jumped into the pond and swam towards Wan Xiubai.

"O iniquity, what you do will result in your own life, it is really heaven killing!" Li Yun was furious, and when he saw Wan Mingji jumping down to save Wan Xiu, he was even more angry.

Ten thousand homes are in chaos.

Lang Zhong came to Wan Xiubai to check the pulse: "Wan San Young Master has a thin foundation, fortunately, he was rescued earlier, and the water is not as cold as in winter, just drink a few pairs of medicine." ”

"Thank you, doctor." Li Yun was afraid that something would happen to Wan Xiubai, and now nothing could happen to Wan Jia.

Xie Qiaoyu returned home and hid in the house and cried fiercely, he dropped golden beans in the bed: "Damn Wei Bowen, when I am really rare, he can't do it." His family looks good on the surface, but he is also the owner of the lack of money. If it weren't for the fact that Wei Bo's literary industry is not bad, I wouldn't have come into contact with him, a prodigal son! ”

"Young master, drink some soup to nourish your stomach." Yao He brought the chicken soup.

"What kind of soup to drink, I'm full of anger!" Xie Qiaoyu saw that someone was paying attention to him, and the more he talked, the more angry he became: "The private money I hid is also attached to him, you see how thick-skinned he is, and he has to be well, is he worthy?" Yao He, tell me, is it easy for me to save some money? I finally fell in love with someone, but I didn't expect it to be blind. ”

Saying that, Xie Qiaoyu whined and cried, and pounded the pillow on the bed into shape.

Yao He: "......"

"Young master, Wei Bowen doesn't know how good you are, this heartless person is good to leave it to others, and it's good for the young master to see a person clearly." Yao He felt that it was not a good idea to know Wei Bowen, and there was no need to wade into troubled waters.

"Then where can I go to find a good reader!" Xie Qiaoyu sobbed: "Wei Bowen not only deceived my feelings, but also consumed my time, and there was a lot of silver, and my heart was broken." ”

Yao He comforted: "Young master, there are still many young talents in Ningjiang County. ”

"Do you mean Xie Jiuling, the son of the Xie family?" Xie Qiaoyu answered quickly, as if he had thought about it a long time ago.

Yao He was in pain, no, he didn't say.

"The Xie family is noble, and Gongzi Xie is also good-looking, but it's difficult." Xie Qiaoyu muttered to himself: "But Gongzi Xie is a good person, if Gongzi Xie is willing to marry me, what else can I find Wei Bowen." ”

Yao He breathed a sigh of relief.

"But I'm always going to try." Xie Qiaoyu smiled sweetly: "We still have the same surname, it's really fateful." ”

Xie Qiaoyu quickly found the next target, in fact, Xie Jiuling was his first target, but the Xie family's family was too high, the prince of Zhizhou came to study in Dongtian Academy, he didn't dare to climb, and now he wanted to find a husband who trampled Wei Bowen under his feet, Xie Jiuling was the best choice.

Now saying some frustrating words will make the young master unhappy, he won't say it yet, Yao He gave the chicken soup to Xie Qiaoyu.

"Young master, Feng Liangfu asked you to go to his yard."

Feng Liangfu is his own father, and Xie Qiaoyu went to find his father before he got out of bed after a few sips of chicken soup.

*

Feng Su's yard was very small, and as soon as he entered the house, there was a smell of medicine, Feng Su saw Xie Qiaoyu coming, and reluctantly opened his eyes to talk to him: "Why are you unhappy?" ”

"It's okay, Daddy, even if the weather is bad, I'm depressed." Xie Qiaoyu decided not to mention Mrs. Xie to let him kneel, as well as the matter with Wei Bowen, he didn't want Daddy to work hard for him, he wanted to take Daddy to live a good life.

"You're just too squeamish." Feng Su smiled: "Which aunt can stand you in the future." When it came to the marriage, Feng Su asked the people under him to take out his jewelry box, he coughed non-stop, his face was pale, Xie Qiaoyu hurriedly poured him water to drink.

"Daddy, be careful."

"My body and bones are not as good as before, these are my dowry and the jewelry that my lord gave me, you keep some for yourself, and you give the rest to your wife, so that Mrs. is happy, and I also think of your good, and I will promise you a good family in the future."

"You always have to get married, the yin and selfishness in this big house, it takes a lot of thought to look at people, some people look high-sounding on the surface, but in fact it is a big thing, and the husband and children can't shelter it. Madame always has a way of understanding when talking to other people, and I don't know what to do if she marries you to someone like this. ”

Xie Qiaoyu's tears rolled in his eyes: "Daddy, your body will definitely be fine, I still want you to get married, and I want to take you with me." ”

"Silly, which husband asked you to take me away, as long as you are doing well, I will be fine." Feng Su touched Xie Qiaoyu's head lovingly, and his heart was very soft.

"Daddy is tired, you go and rest first." Feng Su said, he was a little tired, and his face was as thin as skin.

He knew that Daddy had no appetite and was eating less and less, Xie Qiaoyu wiped his face, and anger suddenly rose in his heart, he looked at the jewelry box in his hand, and the anger in his heart went down again, and he wanted to cry.

He walked out of the yard and gave the jewelry box to Yao He, he wanted to ask him Daddy why he didn't get better after drinking the medicine, but he was getting weaker day by day. Xie Qiaoyu was afraid that he had guessed wrong, and he delayed Daddy's illness and startled the snake.

Xie Qiaoyu asked Yao He to come over and said, "When you go to the kitchen, you quietly find some leftover residues from my father's decoction." ”

Yao He immediately understood in his heart, and he said solemnly: "Don't worry, young master." ”

*

Three days later, the guests of Wanfu will go to mourn Master Wan.

Xie Yuan loves face very much, and he used to have a relationship with Master Wan, but now it's not good not to be afraid of losing a snobbish reputation, so he took the family members of the mansion to Wanfu to show his face and come back immediately.

"Wei Xuan, Qiao Yu, you two don't run around later, we'll go back after a while." Xie Yuan took a sip of tea, still thinking about Xie Zhi's homework in his heart.

"Got it, Daddy." Xie Weixuan himself didn't want to stay in Wanfu for a long time.

Xie Qiaoyu also responded softly, Yao He finally found a chance to find Daddy's medicine residue, and he had entrusted it to Lang Zhong outside, hoping to get the news tomorrow.

"Master, Wanfu has arrived."

Xie Yuan got down from the carriage, and Wanfu was depressed: "Who would have thought that Wanfu would fall so quickly, and Lao Wan would die ......" It was too fast, Xie Yuan stopped talking, for fear of causing a beating.

Li Yun was wearing mourning clothes and talking to the same women.

"It's a pity, Mingji has to wait three years for the scientific examination, this is really a trick." A woman sighed.

"This is also fate, it should be a bad fate, I want to go to the Buddhist temple to offer incense."

"It's not that the feng shui in the family is not good, Master Wan died too suddenly, Mrs. Wan, you have to mourn and change."

"If you want me to say, if Young Master Wan is down, he may not be able to pass the exam." Mrs. Yang said in a strange manner: "Not everyone can pass the imperial examination, Young Master Wan is notoriously poor in learning, so don't have too much hope." If you go to the fields honestly and farm the land, you can still support your family, and if you marry a country daughter-in-law in the future, your life will be over. ”

There was a muffled laughter around, some of the people who came to Wanfu today were friends with Wanfu, and naturally there were also those who wanted to fall into the well of Wanfu.

"I'm straight, I'm afraid it's not good to tell the truth, Sister Li, don't blame me." Mrs. Yang covered her mouth and smiled.

Li Yun wanted to tear Mrs. Yang's mouth apart, she smiled: "My sister knows that this is not good, so I should say less, otherwise my sister can also go to the stage and say something." ”

"You compare me to a play?!" Mrs. Yang only felt that it was a great shame and almost got angry.

"My sister who speaks like this, don't blame me, sister, I praise you for your eloquence, and Xiucai Gong is not as eloquent as you." Li Yun said cautiously: "Did I say the wrong thing?" My sister must not worry about me as a widow. ”

Li Yun wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief: "Sister, I was wrong, I said the wrong thing, you can forgive me, otherwise I will feel guilty in my heart." ”

Mrs. Yang pointed at Li Yun and trembled with anger: "You reverse black and white ......"

Li Yun cried.

Xie Qiaoyu glanced at Li Yun and then at Mrs. Yang, she didn't expect Mrs. Wan of Wanfu to be such a person, Xie Qiaoyu felt that such a person was very powerful, if she was a husband under her, she was afraid that she would be punished, her mother-in-law was too strong and had the means.

Li Yun also saw Xie Yuan and his entourage, so he walked over: "Master Xie, please." ”

Xie Yuan: "Okay. ”

Xie Yuan only entered the main hall, and there were several masters talking together in the main hall, compared to the sparse and sparse figures when the ten thousand families were rich, Xie Yuan went to incense.

Xie Yuan noticed that on one side, there was a young man about eighteen or nineteen years old wearing mourning clothes, with sparse eyebrows and eyes, very thoughtful etiquette, and his temperament was like a pine and cypress.

Xie Qiaoyu recognized this as Wan Mingji.

God, Wan Mingji looks so good in mourning clothes, she wants her face to be a face, she wants to have a waist, she has a long body, she is neither humble nor arrogant. He leaned sideways, the sunlight outlining half of his face, and between light and dark, he laughed softly, speaking to the people around him with ease.

Xie Qiaoyu's heart was pounding.

It's so handsome.

is so charming, God, how could there be such a handsome man, who immediately hit Xie Qiaoyu's heart.

Xie Yuan hesitated: "Mrs. Wan, whose nephew is this?" ”
