The female supporting role has arrived on the battlefield

Chapter 34 The Vicious Wife ([-])

Wan Cen didn't think much about it, he was indeed drunk in Yan Rou's gentle hometown these days, so he didn't have much time to come back.

Besides, he originally wanted to have lunch with Wan Mu, so he agreed.

As soon as noon arrived, Wan's mother couldn't wait to have lunch, but she had made up her mind. Even if Ji Ning knew that Wan Cen came here and specially ordered good food, she would still find some thorns.

If Ji Ning knew what Wanmu was thinking, he would probably say that she was thinking too much.

The lunch prepared for Wan Mu consisted of four dishes, three dishes and one soup, the vegetarian dish was a dish of green vegetables, the flower meat dish was a dish of fried shredded pork with bamboo shoots, and the remaining meat and soup consisted of two palm-sized braised fish and a The pot of tofu and egg drop soup was specially prepared by the kitchen after hearing that Wan Cen was eating together in the old lady's yard. It was never prepared so richly. After all, such a table would cost fifty or sixty renminbi.

The cook is not stupid, the monthly expenses are only five taels of silver, and the servants in the house add up to several, if the money is exceeded by then, Ji Ning won't pay, won't they just deduct their wages and rations? ?

The reason why the preparations were generous was because he was afraid of being too skimpy and Wan Cen would change the cook in a rage.After all, the people in the Wan Mansion are simple, and the master is not the kind of person who likes to punish his servants harshly, and he was chosen by Ji Ning at the beginning. I don't want to leave Wanjia.

However, it was these four dishes that she thought were quite rich, but Wan Mu couldn't help being furious: "Cen'er, what kind of dishes are these? In the past, lunch was not about flying in the sky, but on the ground. Walking and swimming are complete, at least there are chickens, ducks and fish, but now you see, this fried pork with bamboo shoots is only a few pieces of meat, and the only meat dish is not worth much fish."

"Today you came to my yard for lunch. Many people must know that she treated me like this when you were at home. One can imagine that if you go to Beijing and she hosts the show at home, will mother even Can't even eat a piece of meat?"

Wan Cen also had a bad complexion. Whether he was participating in poetry gatherings with those students or friends outside, he was very generous in entertaining guests.

Not to mention the chicken, duck, fish and meat, I went back to the best restaurant in the county to eat, and I had abalone wing belly a few times, so every time I said less, I had to start with a lot of money.

This fish meat was something that he only wanted to treat as a treasure when his family was poor.

In his opinion, this table is indeed a bit crude.

Just remembering that just now he promised Ji Ning that all the food and clothing expenses in the mansion will be paid out of his monthly salary, and it would be self-defeating to go back on his word at this time.

Besides, he was slightly better today, and he didn't want to be a head shorter in front of Ji Ning, so after much deliberation, he could only wrong Wan Mu first.

"Just now, Ji Ning has already told me that the household expenses should be reduced, and I agreed. A man must not go back on his word, let alone marry and obey his husband."

"My son now has fame and salary, so naturally he can't eat from his father-in-law's family. Otherwise, when the time comes, the servants' mouths will be broken or someone who cares will know about it. I'm afraid that the position of juren will not be secure, let alone high school."

As he said that, Wan Cen felt that it was natural and his morals became more and more noble: "Mother, for the sake of my son's future, you have been wronged for a while. Didn't you come here when we had no money in the family before? Now it is better than that time Young master, wait for your son to be the number one scholar in high school, and then ask for an imperial order for your mother, and wealth and glory will be just around the corner."

Wan Cen is indeed a master at drawing big cakes, and he grasped Wan Mu's weakness in a few words.

Wan Mu has always been a face-saving person who likes to put on a show. Hearing what Wan Cen said, thinking that she would also have an imperial order in the future, like those high-ranking ladies, she couldn't say what she wanted to complain about.

"That's all, you have to remember, mother, this is all for you."

"My son knows."

The next day, Ji Ning returned to her mother's house early in the morning. The two families were in the same county, and it took only half an hour to get there in the carriage.

Because someone sent a notice yesterday, so when Ji Ning came back this time, his younger brother Ji Huai was already waiting at the door to greet him.

After getting off the car, Ji Huai greeted her early: "Sister is finally here, why don't you see brother-in-law?"

Although Ji Huai was three years younger than her, he was taller than her. He was very close to her when he saw her, but he noticed that she came back alone this time.

"He's not free, let's go in and talk about the details."

Ji Huai nodded, but still reminded: "I heard that my brother-in-law's high school champion, father and mother happily bought a set of firecrackers, and prepared a lot of things, planning to let you take them back when you come to the door. Who knows Some time ago, I heard that my brother-in-law came back, but my father waited all day the next day and didn't see you."

Ji Ning understood it as soon as she heard it. She was surprised that the original owner was held in the palm of her parents since she was a child. Other small things can be tolerated, but Wan Cen wants to take a concubine. According to the original owner's temperament, he should go back to his mother's house to find his parents. idea.

If Ji's father was willing to come forward, Wan Cen would not have accepted Yan Rou in as soon as he wished.

Wan Cen is able to have everything today, his own hard work and talents cannot be ignored, but at the same time, the money and contacts provided by Ji's father also gave him a lot of help.

It was Ji Fu's connections that allowed him to enter the best White Elephant Academy in the county, and if Ji Fu didn't exist, Wan Cen would still be worrying about making a living, so how could he have money and time to take the exam?

It's just that before Wan Cen Zhongju, he was very grateful to Ji's family and Ji's father, and he was rarely so indifferent to her. At most, he used the excuse of meeting friends or reading books to alienate her.

So when Wan Cen won the Juren, all members of the Ji family thought that Wan Cen would bring Ji Ning to the door to announce the good news when he came back, but they didn't expect that only Ji Ning sent someone to come back to announce the good news. Father felt hurt because of this, and also became a little angry towards Ji Ning.

It's not that the original owner couldn't think of that, it's just that she was so weak at that time because of Yan Rou's affairs, she was crying all day long, and she also had to face the indifferent fact of her husband's change of heart, as well as her mother-in-law's making things difficult and abusing her, and she had to arrange matters such as taking concubines by herself. .

For a long time, the original owner was afraid that his parents would be angry, so he not only did not return to Ji's house, but even concealed the matter of Wan Cen's taking a concubine. When the two elders of Ji's family found out, Yan Rou had already entered the house.

Ji Ning sighed softly, and couldn't help smiling at Shang Ji Huai's worried gaze: "I came here this time to apologize to my parents."

After a while, they arrived at Mother Ji's yard. Father Ji and Mother Ji were sitting in the main seat. They didn't see Wan Cen's figure, and their expressions were a little ugly.

"Where's Wan Cen? Why didn't he come with you? Could it be that he's become a Juren master now, and even his father-in-law isn't ready to recognize him?

"master"

Ji's mother wanted to persuade her, but Ji's father stretched out his hand and interrupted her: "Don't help her talk, let her say it by herself, if you marry someone else's wife, you won't be a member of the Ji family in the future? Even your biological parents are gone. ?”
