Now that the draft was selected, Wu Youwei asked the housekeeper to send the pair of gold bracelets. No matter how angry and irritable the Wu family was when they saw the pair of gold bracelets, he gave them anyway.

In the scorching summer, he didn't want to go out, so he studied at home for the time being. People who knew him said that he hadn't entered school for three years. Now, in the first year of his filial piety, he had to go over his homework first. Many old gentlemen I think this is a mature and prudent move, so

His youth is very beneficial.

Wu Youwei was reviewing books today, in fact, he was going over the memory of the original owner next to the book. The original owner does have a bit of aura in reading, but his vision is limited. This aura can make him pass the exam, but he may not be able to pass the exam. Become a Jinshi.

Because scholars and candidates can memorize by rote and learn from other people's achievements, only Jinshi can't. Jinshi discusses national policy, how can people with low vision answer the questions?

So while reading the book, Wu Youwei imitated the original owner's strategy and theory, and at the same time incorporated his own ideas into it.

While watching, the butler ran in: "Master! Master!"

"What's the matter?" Wu Youwei was annoyed by the hot weather and didn't want to read. As soon as Butler Lin came, he put down the book, so fast.

"Lord Wantong is here!" Lin Butler gasped and said, "I've arrived at the door plaque, and I'll be at the gate soon."

"He's here?" Wu Youwei was taken aback: "What is he doing here?"

"I don't know, but there are many people and cars behind me!" Lin Butler was a little uneasy: "But what's the matter, master?"

"What can I do?" Wu Youwei scratched his head: "Forget it, go and have a look.

As soon as the two of them went out, Xiao Xiao and the others followed, and when they reached the gate, as expected, Wantong was already at the gate.

Today Wantong is wearing the set of clothes that he took away from Moling Mountain Villa. It is a strong bamboo green suit with arrow sleeves and wide waist. He sat on the horse and did not get off. Wu Youwei looked up at him and found that This person looks particularly heroic at this time.

"I wonder if your lord is here?" Wu Youwei cupped his hands, it was necessary to be polite.

"I'll bring you something." Wantong got off his horse handsomely: "Aren't you going to let me in?"

"Come in, come in!" Wu Youwei nodded quickly, and let Butler Lin greet the people: "All the carriages should go in through the side door.

Then he personally greeted Lord Jin Yiwei Qianhu to enter the door.

Wu Youwei found that the expression of his servants was very...interesting, just like the one who bowed in [the door was not a Jinyiwei Qianhu adults, but a hungry wolf, so scared!

He felt that this was not good, so he ordered Xiao Xiao: "Go make tea, the green tea in the bamboo tea pot on the Duobao Pavilion in my study."

"Yes, master." Xiaoxiao and Wantong have met, and they have been together for two or three days, but they are still afraid of seeing Wantong, so they hurried to boil water.

Wu Youwei invited Wantong to sit in the living room, and the seven Jinyiwei who followed Wantong also came in. Wu Youwei treated them equally and greeted them to sit down and talk first.

The seven Jinyiwei were Wantong's subordinates, and they were a little surprised to see that their Qianhu was so close to a small Juren.

You know, Jin Yiwei's name is like thunder, and similarly, the scholar's pedantry is also famous for Jin Yiwei.

Since the establishment of Jinyiwei, it has been criticized by those scholars, almost no scholars have any contact with Jinyiwei, even if there is, it must be Jinyiwei's own people.

"This time I came to give you something." Wantong sat down and explained: "I have already told the emperor about the stretcher you gave me last time, and the emperor took it to the people in the Ministry of War to see and agree To promote it in the army, not much, I didn’t say it was your idea alone, I mean we came up with it together, don’t mind, it’s all used in the army because of it, you’re a literati, it’s not easy to bear such a reputation.”

"It's okay, it's okay, as long as it can be used." Wu Youwei didn't have any opinion on this.

When it was agreed to report to the imperial court, Wu Youwei smiled and said, "Is this something that the imperial court rewards?"

"This is just a reward from the emperor. Your stretcher is just for promotion now. When you use it well, there will naturally be a real reward from the court." Wan Tongdao: "These things are not ordinary, so be careful when you use them.

"Yes, yes, this is something rewarded by the emperor, of course you have to be careful." Wu Youwei was very flattered, what could the emperor reward him privately?

I wish I knew sooner!

It's a pity that we can't leave the guests to search for gifts now.

"Master, here comes the tea, here comes the tea!" Xiaoxiao came in bluffing, carrying a rather large tray with eight small plates of pastries on it, followed by peonies and roses, who were carrying two There are three tureen bowls.

The two of them were followed by Narcissus and the other four, each carrying two tea bowls.

At this time, Wu Youwei finally saw the ability of his maid.

Two big maids and four maids floated in like clouds. Although they were also scared, they did their jobs very well.

The tea bowl was put down lightly, then bent down and floated out again.

Why use the word "floating"?

Because they don't make much noise when they come and go.

Wantong picked up the tea bowl and opened the lid to smell it, and he knew it was good tea, but he couldn't tell what kind of tea it was, he only knew it should be delicious.

After taking a sip, sure enough, the tea has a strong aroma and a sweet aftertaste.

"Good tea." Wantong tasted it, thinking that ordinary scholars should like to listen to it.

Who knows that Wu Youwei is not an ordinary scholar, this guy said carelessly: "Okay? I bought this from Master Jikong. Actually, I don't know how to taste it. I just know it should be good." He even took a sip and exclaimed, "It's really delicious!"

Wantong...!! ! "

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't be so polite.

Everyone else looked at Wu Youwei as if they were looking at Western scenery. This little man is so interesting!

After serving tea and snacks for everyone, Xiao Xiao stood behind Wu Youwei.

"I'll have lunch here later, and after that, I'll take a short rest before returning to Beijing." Wantong put down his tea bowl and said, "No drinking."

"Okay." Wu Youwei turned his head and told Xiao Xiao: "Go and tell the butler, and we will serve herbal tea for drinks after dinner.

yes sir! "A little gust of wind ran out.

"You book boy is loyal to you." Wantong glanced at Xiao Xiao who ran out.

"Back then, we both came here depending on each other." Wu Youwei said, "When he grows older, I will grant him a residence permit, buy land, marry a wife, and have a baby."

"I'm not married yet!" Wantong raised his eyebrows.

This book boy Wantong is no stranger, in fact, he had met him in the Wu Mansion a long time ago, but he had seen their master and servant, but the master and servant had never seen him.

Now that the eldest daughter of the Wu family has been drafted into the palace, I don't know what this young man's plan is.

Wu Youwei only gave Wantong a smirk: "Hehe!"

Wu Youwei spread his hands and gave these two omnipotent "hehe".

It took a long time for Wantong to understand what the two "hehe" meant.

After a while, Xiao Xiao ran in like a gust of wind: "Master, I told the butler."

"Let's talk about it, why are you running?" Wu Youwei was a little puzzled: "What should I do if I get heatstroke in a hot day?"

It's so hot that I'm sweating even if I don't move, and I sweat even more when I move, and if I run again, I'm really sweating profusely.

Xiaoxiao looked at Wantong, but said nothing.

But Wantong immediately understood: "He is afraid that something will happen if you stay here alone."

"What can happen to me?" Wu Youwei said with a smile: "There are so many adults here, if something happens to me again, it will be a joke."

With so many armed policemen and secret service personnel equivalent to the combination of future generations, he can still be born, unless aliens invade the earth.

Wantong looked at Wu Youwei, did this little man really not know, or was he just pretending?

Aren't they the ones that this little book boy is afraid of?

"I heard that the young lady of the Wu family has been drafted into the palace?" Wantong glanced at Wu Youwei, but secretly noticed the change in his expression.

"Didn't I hear that she's probably already gone in?" Wu Youwei curled his lips: "You said that the elder brother's niece was drafted into the palace and still asked me for something? I gave a pair of big gold bracelets as her Added makeup."

"The Wu family is so confident?" Wantong noticed the word "add makeup", and he thought the same as Mrs. Wu thought that day, only the Queen of the Palace can have "add makeup".

Even the imperial concubine didn't say "add makeup".

"Who knows?" Wu Youwei was not interested in this topic: "My elder brother has a big heart.

He could talk about Wu Qian'er in front of Master Ji Kong, but he would never mention Wu Qian'er's boudoir name in front of outsiders. This was an ancient taboo.

"Oh? Don't you want to help him?" Wantong's eyes flashed a bright light even in daylight.

It is said that this little Juren has an unusual relationship with Master Jikong of Fahai Temple.

"He doesn't like me." Wu Youwei sneered: "Besides, I don't want to make trouble for him, it's best to let fate.

Wantong lowered his eyes, resigned to fate?

"By the way, if the stretcher is easy to use, it can also be used for emergency rescue and disaster relief." Wu Youwei still knows about stretchers. For emergency rescue and disaster relief, especially after an earthquake, a stretcher can carry the wounded.

"Oh?" Wantong was interested in this: "Tell me."

Wu Youwei opened his mouth and talked freely.

From field rescue to disaster relief, just halfway through the conversation, the butler came, and the meals have been prepared, please take the master and all the adults to the table.

What Wu Youwei said was not enough, but it can't delay the guests' dinner, can it?

Wantong couldn't get enough of what he heard, but he couldn't delay the host's dinner, right?

So both of them stopped and went to the guest courtyard.

A new mahogany table has been set up in the guest courtyard. It is very beautiful. The textures on the table are all natural. There are four dishes and one soup on it, but the portion is very large. Basically, the largest size in the house is used. plate.

Braised eggplant, stuffed cowpea with meat, sweet and sour cucumber, and carp.

Among them, only the carp has no shape. Inside are two large carp, one head and one tail, like Yin and Yang fish, but these two fish, one is steamed and the other is braised in soy sauce. Use the fried squash flowers to block the soup to prevent the soup from being skewed on both sides.

Braised eggplant in soy sauce is shaped like a dragon; cowpea stuffed with meat is shaped like a flower; sweet and sour cucumber is shaped like a peacock.

After serving it, Wu Youwei was shocked!

The soup is melon and vegetable soup, which is also very refreshing and not greasy.

The staple food, Jade Dumplings, are actually chicken stuffed dumplings wrapped in spinach juice and noodles.

Served green and shiny, it looks delicious.

"Your chef's craftsmanship...is very good." Wantong looked at the dishes. This table of dishes cost at least five taels of silver in Taibailou.

Don't look at the meals are very ordinary, but the shape is good.

Anyway, after looking at the dishes, the seven people he brought were very "gentle" when they put down their chopsticks, and they didn't rush to grab their bowls.

What I drank was indeed herbal tea, or ice-cold herbal tea made with saltpeter.

Originally, everyone paid attention to "eating and sleeping without talking", but Wantong really wanted to hear Wu Youwei continue, so he teased him to speak.

Sure enough, Wu Youwei couldn't resist the teasing, and finally finished the lunch while eating and talking.

After eating and drinking some herbal tea, Wu Youwei yawned. He basically took a nap at noon every day, especially when he was sleeping in the scorching summer.

They had no choice but to leave the venue, and the adults of Jin Yiwei took a nap in the guest courtyard for two hours, and then they had to ride back to the capital.
