reborn wife

Chapter 13

Wen Zhiru was in a particularly good mood that day after making good new friends and getting a lot of cash.

After chatting with people in the restaurant, I went shopping in various shops in the market, bought my favorite snacks, ordered a few sets of clothes and accessories, and bought new rouge and gouache for the two little maids.

It was just the appearance of three men dressed in men's clothing standing in front of the counter of the rouge shop, picking and picking, which really made the shopkeeper stare at him for a long time. There were still a few girls who were picking rouge together. I avoided it and went to another shop.

This joke lasted for a long time, and when Wen Zhiru remembered it, it was already Shen Shi.

Although his Luoying Pavilion was always deserted and few people would come to it on weekdays, they were afraid that something might happen if they left for too long, so the three of them hurriedly called a carriage and headed straight to the East City.

Just entered the small courtyard and before touching the door, she saw Madam Liu running over with sweat profusely. She saw Wen Zhiru's attire and saw Fu Cui and Fu Sheng following behind her, her brows furrowed , I lowered my voice by three minutes when I was about to shout, "Oh, my girl, you are back, where did you go, but this servant is anxious to death!"

"What's the matter?" Wen Zhiru asked while continuing to walk into the house, and by the way, signaled Fu Cui and Fu Lan to fetch water and clothes for him to wash and change.

"Master just sent someone to send you over to speak, Miss."

"Father?" That's fine, why does the old man think of himself again when he's not in the cabinet to take care of everything?

"That's right, the servant girl said that it's been hot these days, girl, you didn't sleep well at night, so you slept for a while and didn't get up, so you managed to fool me. Fortunately, the girl is back, pack up and go to the old man's courtyard! "

"understood."

I was so tired after running for a whole day, and I wanted to have a meal and take a bath in the evening to have a good rest. I really didn't let anyone rest for a moment!

************************************************** **********************

On the way to meet Wen Yanfeng, Wen Zhiru was seeing Yuexi, the girl next to the eldest lady, walking by carrying an exquisite food box, looking in the direction, it seemed that she was going to Aunt Mei's Shuying Pavilion.

Aunt Mei is being favored, and Qian Shi hates her so much that it's too late, so why would she kindly send her some food?

Wen Zhiru obviously didn't believe it.

In the past, he never cared about these family affairs in his father's backyard, but in order to deal with the restless Qian, he had to pay more attention to it.

"Yuexi!" He called out to stop the other party, "Where are you taking what are you taking?"

Yuexi was stunned for a moment, but she still opened the food box generously, "The madam personally stewed the orange-flavored bird's nest, and sent it to Shuying Pavilion for Aunt Mei." It's hard to serve the master every day, and the eldest lady said to send him to mend his body. This is also the custom in the house."

"Oh. Then go and deliver it, it's not good if it's cold." Although there were many doubts in his heart, Wen Zhiru waved her hand and told her to leave quickly.

Seeing her getting farther away, she turned around and asked Fu Cui, "Is there such a practice in the mansion?"

"Yes, bird's nest is precious, and aunts are no less rare than Mrs. Madam and Madam. Madam is considerate, so she will often stew some supplements and send them to the aunts of each courtyard. I heard that this was the time when your mother was in charge of the mansion. Yes, at that time the eldest lady was still in good health, so she liked to make some snacks and stews to share with the aunts. It is said that when Aunt Mei was pregnant, she was very weak and sick, and she couldn't eat anything, let alone drink the medicine. The eldest lady I also specially found a few prescriptions for food supplements to take care of Aunt Mei's body personally. You can see that the second young lady's skin is fair and translucent, which is the credit of the eldest lady at that time! Later, the successor wife took charge of the family. I think it was also to gain a good name, so I followed suit. Ma'am did that."

Wen Zhiru nodded, but she always felt that things would not be that simple.

************************************************** **********************

This time, Wen Yanfeng was still alone in the study waiting for Wen Zhiru.

Wen Zhiru also didn't let Fu Cui follow in. He stood in front of the study door and straightened his clothes again. After confirming that everything was in order, he pushed the door in. Is there anything important?"

Wen Yanfeng was looking down at a memorial at that time, taking up a pen to annotate a few sentences from time to time, completely ignoring Wen Zhiru.

There are more than a dozen memorials that have been processed on his right hand, and there are four or five books on his left, which should not be processed yet.

Wen Zhiru stopped talking too much, and quietly walked over to grind ink for him.

This ink is the best pine smoke ink, the quality of the ink is fine, the ink color is black and mellow, the craftsman who made it did not know what was added in it, after it melted in water, there was a long and quiet light fragrance, not like burning spices The smell is far-reaching, if you don't get close, you can't smell it at all, but someone who dips in the ink and wipes it can smell it clearly.

Wen Zhiru is familiar with this smell, in his previous life in the small courtyard of the palace, lonely and cold, sometimes he would find out the calligraphy and painting made by Jin Yihui before he was alive and copy them to pass the time.

He originally thought that the smell was left by the spices burned in the study, but he didn't know until today that it was the ink...

Just like this, he waited until the last memorial on the left was closed, and then Wen Yanfeng raised his head and looked at Wen Zhiru, "Did Young Master Wen have a good time out of the house today?"

"..." Wen Zhiru stared at the sky speechlessly.

The news of the chief assistant is too well-informed, right?

Although he also expected that today's dispute with Jin Yixuan in front of [Rufeng Drink] would eventually spread, even if Wen Zhixu, the authentic young master, took the blame for him, his father would always find out the day.

It's just...it's too fast!

He suddenly began to understand why the young emperor insisted on killing Wen Yanfeng to seize power.

Sure enough, with such a chief and assistant minister who knows everything clearly by his side, who can feel at ease!

That's all, it's been exposed anyway, so there's no need to continue pretending.

Wen Zhiru smiled flatteringly, "Father is a master of planning, and my daughter admires it. My daughter is just... a little bored staying in the mansion, so I just go out to relax."

Wen Yanfeng snorted coldly, "Do you think you can get away with fooling around by saying these empty words?"

"That...meeting Mr. Jin Er was just an accident! An accident!"

"Young Master Wen's accident is really a big deal. My father didn't know that my Wen family was so impoverished that the young master had to personally sell and sell the properties to make ends meet."

"Uh..." Wen Zhiru was taken aback, and forgot to close his half-open mouth, showing a strange expression.

I thought he was angry because of the dispute between himself and Jin Yixuan in public, but he even knew that he sold his mother's jewelry?How can this be?

Wen Zhiru regained his composure, and glanced around Wen Yanfeng's study from the corner of his eye.

Unexpectedly, an ivory scroll was faintly seen in an inconspicuous corner of the bookshelf behind Wen Yanfeng.

……

No, no, no, tell him, this must be his own overthinking.

His father is the chief minister of the cabinet, a powerful official who even the emperor has to fear three points, but Feng Rong is just a restaurant shopkeeper who is a bit arrogant, how could the two of them have an intersection.

Even if there was an intersection, how could they have a good relationship? They bought it from me in the morning and delivered it to Wen Yanfeng in the afternoon.

Not to mention that Feng Rong knew it was his mother's belongings, everyone in the house knew that his mother didn't like calligraphy and painting very much before she was alive, but it can be imagined that the boxes of dowry calligraphy and painting were almost unopened. What's more, a daughter of a family who has been in the deep boudoir for a long time, and the first wife of the chief minister of the cabinet, not to mention has passed away for more than ten years, if she can have such a deep connection with such a man from ordinary background, then her mother will be innocent for the rest of her life. Reputation can be ruined.His father would never let him go, so how dare Feng Rong send such a thing to his door.

Wen Yanfeng saw that Wen Zhiru didn't return for a long time, and he didn't continue to pursue it, "Forget it, if you are short of money, tell Weifu in the future, don't go out to make troubles about these things, so as not to make people lose ground." Wen Yanfeng actually took out a dozen banknotes from the drawer beside the desk, "Although your father and I are no match for those royal families and princes who have great fortunes, it is not a problem to support our children without worrying about food and clothing. Take them!"

"This..." Wen Zhiru took the hand, although he didn't dare to count it in person, but the thickness of the thousand taels of banknotes held in his hand was more than a dozen. This is a big deal...

Feelings are a blessing in disguise!

"Thank you dad!" Wen Zhiru hurriedly put it in his arms, stepped forward to pour tea and beat Wen Yanfeng's back.

"Master, you have been exhausted from dealing with the government affairs these days, and this concubine specially made ginseng soup to make up for you."

It was this beautiful moment of "Father's kindness and son's filial piety", but someone outside the door wanted to disturb him.

It seems that Qian's illness is really cured, and now he is trying to regain his disadvantage.

Wen Yanfeng cleared his throat, "Come in!"

Wen Zhiru curled her lips, put her hands away and stood aside.

The door of the room was pushed open, and Qian walked in with a swaying figure, behind her was the newly promoted maidservant Yue Ling who was carrying the ginseng soup for her.

She glanced at Wen Zhiru, with unconcealable disgust in her eyes, but she still put on a dignified and elegant smile: "Is Zhiru also here? It's a coincidence."

skillful?Wen Zhiru rolled his eyes, it must be that the enemy's road is narrow!

But I have to admit that the well-dressed Qian Shi is really gentle and charming. Although she is only two years younger than Wen Yanfeng, she has been well maintained, but she looks 25 or [-], and she is thinly wearing makeup, neither It will be as vulgar as a concubine's concubine, but without losing the charm of a little woman, it really makes a man's heart.

"Mother is well. A few days ago, I heard that my mother was not feeling well. I was afraid of disturbing your rest. I couldn't personally attend to the sickness. My daughter feels ashamed."

"A few minor illnesses, besides, I'm afraid of making noise during the illness, the doctor also ordered me to rest, it doesn't bother me."

While talking, Mrs. Qian took out a small bowl of ginseng soup and handed it to Wen Yanfeng, "Yesterday, elder brother sent someone to send some high-quality wild ginseng. You have worked hard for the state affairs day and night. Drink this to replenish your body." It couldn't be better."

"I am ashamed to receive such a generous gift from Mr. Qian."

The Langzhong Qian that Wen Yanfeng said was the eldest brother from the Qian family's natal family, Qian Linmo, the doctor of the Ministry of Fifth Grade Industry.

The Qian family was originally just a humble family, if Qian Linmo hadn't been selected as a Jinshi and somehow got a half-job, he might not even be qualified to come to Wen's mansion to be a concubine.Now that he has become a fifth-rank official, it is because of Wen Yanfeng's face.If it wasn't for this relationship, how could Qian Linmo be willing to please a concubine?

"It's a family, so there's no need to see outsiders like this. It's thanks to you, my lord, that elder brother is now prosperous in the official career."

The author has something to say: Do you think that a wise and powerful father is so easily deceived by beauty!
