Chapter 973
After what happened to the twin stall owners, Qiyou didn't have any interest in shopping anymore, so he went back to the inn directly.
The leader of the guards, Zhang Dachuan, couldn't help asking: "Fourth Young Master, how did you tell the difference?" The two people obviously look the same, otherwise they wouldn't have been unaware.
Qiyou said, "The eyes are different."
Zhang Dachuan asked puzzledly: "What's the difference in the eyes?" This is really hard to see.
Yu Zhi waved his hand and said, "Go down!" As an intelligence leader, how could he not know Qiyou's strangeness. As long as Qiyou has met everyone, he can remember and distinguish them.
After this incident, Qiyou didn't want to stay in Shaoxing either: "Tomorrow we will leave for Yongcheng." Let's rest well today! Once on the road, there is no bed to sleep in.
Yu Zhi nodded.
Leaning on the bed, Qiyou asked: "Yu Zhi, where do you think my father and elder brother are now?" Before he set off, he knew that Yunqing would take Brother Hao to inspect various military camps.
Yu Zhi shook his head and said: "The itinerary of the lord and the son is a secret." Since it is a secret, it is naturally impossible for unrelated people to know.
Qiyou looked up at the top of the bed and said, "I've been away from home for so long, I don't know if Mother misses me?"
"My mother is worried when my son travels thousands of miles." There is danger when going out, so how can the princess not be worried.
Qiyou smiled and said: "After going to Suzhou, we will return to Jinling." He set off directly from Jinling to Hangzhou, and has not gone to Suzhou yet.
"Okay." Now Yu Zhi knew why Yuxi didn't tell Qiyou to go back when, and Qiyou would go back when he was tired from playing and homesick.
After lying on the bed, Qiyou said: "It's not fun to come out alone, next time you come out to play, you must bring third brother with you."
It was also on this day that Yuxi received a letter from Brother You, along with a painting.
Yuxi looked at the painting first, and then said with a smile: "These islands are in various shapes and forms, and they deserve the name of Qiandao Lake." It's a pity that she couldn't walk away, otherwise she could go and enjoy the beautiful scenery by herself.
After seeing it, Liu Er also liked it very much: "Mother, can you give me this painting?" Liu Er not only likes rhythm, but also likes calligraphy and painting.
Yu Xi smiled and nodded, "Take it if you like."
Zao Zao has no interest in painting or poetry: "Mother, what did you write in Ayou's letter?" Brother You not only searches for delicious food, but also learns about local folk customs every time he goes. Then write down these things and send them to Yuxi. This is also influenced by Pang Jinglun.
Hearing this, Yu Xi handed the letter to Zao Zao and said, "Read it to me." Of the six children, Brother Yu is the best at playing.
"...There are fresh meat dumplings, red bean dumplings, eight-treasure dumplings, ham dumplings, and egg yolk dumplings. These dumplings are fat but not greasy, and they are delicious. I couldn't control it for the first time. I ate four in one bite, and I was full... ..." After reading this, Zao Zao couldn't continue. This bad thing, knowing that they can't eat it, still writes this.
Liu Er said: "If elder sister wants to eat, just ask Master Fang to make it." All kinds of snacks made by Master Fang taste very good.
Zao Zao thinks this idea is very good.
Yuxi smiled and said: "Master Fang can make zongzi, but the taste is definitely not so authentic."
Hearing this, Liu Er asked puzzledly: "Mother, the materials are the same, and Master Fang's craftsmanship is good, so why is it not authentic?"
"Not to mention anything else, just the water makes the difference." Moreover, the ingredients are not as good as there.
Zaozao regretted so much: "Why did I stay in Jinling and not go to other places?" It's fine if I didn't see the beautiful scenery, but it's a pity that I didn't eat the delicious food.
Liu Er smiled and said: "After reading Ah You's letter, I also want to go to Jiangnan." Brother You really described the various places so well,
Can't help but be moved.
Zao Zao said cheerfully: "It will take a few days for Ah Xuan to read this letter." Every time after reading Brother Yu's letter, Brother Xuan would be very annoyed. Although Brother Xuan can go to Jiangnan with Yuxi's consent, but that will be a few years later.
Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will arrive.
Brother Xuan happened to hear this when he entered the door: "Sister, why am I going to be depressed for a few more days?"
Zao Zao handed the letter to Ah Xuan, and said, "I mean, after reading this letter, you will be depressed for a few more days."
Brother Xuan didn't read the letter, but looked at Yuxi and asked, "Mother, when will Ayou come back?"
Yuxi smiled slightly: "Miss Ayou?"
"Think about it." He was the only one left at home among the four brothers. Although he was accompanied by a reading companion, he still felt so lonely.
Yu Xi shook her head and said, "I don't know when Ah You will come back? I'll write to him next time and ask him."
"Mother, you didn't ask when Ah You would come back?" Seeing Yu Xi nodding, Zao Zao yelled, "You're too partial." Ah You didn't set a time limit when she went out to play, and she asked for this or that when she went out.
Yuxi glanced at Zao Zao: "Partial? What do you mean I'm not good enough for you?" Counting Zao Zao is the most troublesome thing for her among the six children.
Zao Zao didn't dare to say anything.
After dinner, Zao Zao said: "Mother, I have something to tell you."
Seeing this, Brother Xuan and Liu Er immediately got up and went back to their yard.
"It's not a secret, let's go to the yard!" As far as Zao Zao is concerned, there will be no secrets.
When they arrived in the yard, Zao Zao asked all the maids and women to go back to the house, and then said to Yu Xi in a low voice: "Mother, Jin Yu told me today that he wants to live at home after getting married."
Yuxi's eyes flashed sharply, but she quickly acted like a normal person: "You agreed?"
Zao Zao shook his head and said, "No, I need your mother's consent for this."
I know I have to ask myself, but I haven't been dazed by Wu Jinyu yet. Yuxi asked: "What do you think?"
Zao Zao said hesitantly: "Jin Yu said his mother was heartbroken for him, and it would be unfilial to move out after getting married."
Yu Xi frowned and said, "What I'm asking is what do you think?" It's normal for Wu Jinyu to think this way, the key is Zao Zao's attitude.
Zao Zao lowered her head and said, "I don't want to live in Wu's house."
"It's not hopeless." If you are willing to live in Wu's house, you are really stupid.
Zao Zao looked up at Yu Xi and let out a sigh of relief. There is no way, Baishan filial piety is the first, as a big princess, she should set an example. Therefore, she was afraid that Yuxi would agree.
Yu Xi was angry and funny: "You are used to going smoothly at home, how can I let you go to another house to be wronged?" As for Zao Zao, she will not suffer even if she stays in Wu's house, but she must live in Wu's house. Not comfortable living alone.
Holding Yuxi in his arms, Zaozao said with a smile: "I know that my mother is the best to me."
After being coquettish, Zao Zao said with a puzzled look: "Mother, you have someone go check it out. Why did Jinyu propose to live in Wu's house after marriage?" Because it was agreed before that after marriage, she and Wu Jinyu Moved out. So this time Wu Jinyu made this request, she was very surprised.
Yuxi smiled and said: "If there is anything to investigate, just don't agree." It is a waste of resources to send someone to investigate these matters in the inner house.
"Mom, I want to know whose idea it is not to let us move out!"
Yuxi was not angry either, she didn't teach Zaozao about the things in the inner house, and she didn't blame Zaozao for saying that. Yuxi said: "It doesn't matter who you are. You are the princess of the Ming Palace. As long as you stand firm and have principles, no one can do anything to win you. If you can't stand firm and principles, they will use gold and jade to ask you for more in the future. "No matter whose idea it is, the left and right are only those from the Wu family.
Zao Zao didn't understand, and asked, "Ask for more? Mother, what does this mean?"
"For example, Wu Jinbao wants to be promoted, please help to clear up the relationship..." If you meet the conditions for promotion, it doesn't matter if you help to clear up the relationship. Afraid that the conditions were not met, they wanted to use Zao Zao's identity to achieve their goals.
Zaozao looked down, and said, "I definitely won't agree." She didn't take any shortcuts, but relied on her own ability to work hard in the army, and then slowly rose from the bottom by accumulating military merits.
Yuxi said: "Compared with ours, the population of Wu's family is still a bit complicated. Apart from your future mother-in-law Fang, Wu Kuo also has Aunt Ji in Jiangnan. That Aunt Ji gave birth to him two sons and a daughter. These three children They are called Jin Bo, Jin Shi, and Jin Zhu respectively. Before the incident between you and Jin Yu happened, Wu Kuo wanted to train Jin Bo and let him take over the family business in the future."
Zao Zao really doesn't know these things: "Mother, why did Jin Bo, a bastard, take over the family's business?"
Yu Xi smiled and said: "Wu Jinbao is going to pursue an official career, Jin Yu is not material for business, but this Jin Bo is very talented in this area."
After a pause, Yuxi said: "Your future mother-in-law, Fang Shi, is also cunning, but that's the case, Aunt Ji also gave birth to two sons and a daughter, so it can be seen that Aunt Ji is not a simple one."
"Aunt Ji? Why haven't I heard of this person?" She thought Wu Kuo had two sons, Wu Jinbao and Jinyu.
Yu Xi gave Zao Zao a white look, and said, "Aside from Wu Jinyu, what else have you cared about?" Fortunately, she and Yun Qing were protecting her, otherwise she would have to be tortured if she married into someone else's house like this foolishly.
Zao Zao said without the slightest bit of shame: "Mother, there is no Aunt Ji in the Wu family. Unless this Aunt Ji is not in Pick City, it is impossible for me not to know."
"Wu Kuo has a lot of business in Jiangnan, so he took a concubine in Jiangnan, and this concubine is Aunt Ji." He said that someone must help with food, clothing, housing and transportation when going out. So men are so shameless, concubines are concubines, and they have to find those grandiose reasons.
Zao Zao had such an expression as expected: "Will Aunt Ji be taken back to Pickaxe City in the future?"
Yuxi nodded and said: "Most of the Wu family's property in Jiangnan has been sold, and it won't be long before Aunt Ji will receive Pick City."
Wives and concubines are the most annoying. Zao Zao said happily: "Fortunately, Jin Yu was not allowed to live in Wu's house, otherwise my ears will not be clean in the future." Where there are people, there will be disputes, not to mention it is a trick of two women competing for a man.
"Wu Jinyu said to be filial to the Fang family, you can't refuse this." A child should be filial to his parents. Of course, it's another matter if the parents are not loving.
After saying ah, she asked, "Mother, tell me, what should I do?" It seems that it is not easy to be filial to the Fang family and not live in the Wu family.
Poke Zaozao's forehead, Yuxi laughed and scolded: "It's very simple, just say that I have prepared a mansion for you, and I won't let you live in Wu's house after marriage. But you can tell Jinyu that if he If you want to be filial, you can take Mrs. Fang to live in the mansion."
Zao Zao frowned: "Mother, don't you want to be this villain? Mother, I don't agree."
Yuxi smiled and said: "Silly boy, as long as you live well, mother is willing to take care of this." She has a good reputation, and Wu Jinyu will not be suspicious when she hears it.
Zao Zao didn't say anything, just buried her head in Yu Xi's arms and hugged her tightly.
After seeing Zao Zao, Wu Jinyu came home and said to Fang: "Mother, the princess said that she has prepared a house for the princess, and let us move there after we get married." After finishing speaking, Wu Jinyu grabbed Fang Shi's hand said: "But the princess said that if the mother is willing, she can move in and live with us."
Fang smiled wryly in her heart, how could she move to live with Wu Jinyu when her husband and eldest son were here. Presumably the princess knew this and made the princess say so on purpose. But Fang didn't dare to speak ill of Zao Zao, fearing that it would be Jin Yu and Wu's family who would suffer if they destroyed the relationship between the husband and wife.
Holding Jin Yu's hand instead, Fang said with a smile: "Mother knows that you and the princess are filial children. From now on, Mother will go and stay for a few days if she has nothing to do." , the right to relax.
Wu Jinyu was very simple-minded, and said happily when she saw this: "At that time, you can bring your sister-in-law and Aqi to live here, and it will be lively."
Fang was helpless, but there was still a smile on his face: "Okay."
After talking for a while, Wu Jinyu went back to her yard. The flowers and plants placed in the house are very precious, and Wu Jinyu does it himself every day to water and move out to bask in the sun, so he is worried about handing it over to others.
After Wu Jinyu left, Mama He said: "The princess loves the second master so much, my wife doesn't have to worry about the second master in the future." Although the princess didn't want to live in Wu's house, she also expressed that she would be filial to her wife. It's also very good.
She had expected that this would not be successful, but she was just a fluke, so she was not disappointed when she was rejected. But thinking about family affairs, Fang smiled wryly and said: "The world is unpredictable. I used to be most worried about Jin Yu, but now I am worried about Jin Bao." Under the influence of Xiao Fang, Jin Bao also has opinions on his parents. Xiao Fang's temperament is a bit left-handed, but she can't do anything with her care. But if Jin Bao was influenced by her and separated from him, it would be bad.
Mother He said: "Madam, you should discuss this matter with the master!" Wu Kuo didn't care about the affairs of the back house, so he didn't know that Xiao Fang was dissatisfied with his donation.
Fang hesitated a little. If Wu Kuo knew about this, he would probably give up Xiao Fang directly.
Mama He hesitated for a moment, but she still spoke her mind: "Ma'am, if you don't tell the master now, you will have no time to regret it if you don't tell the master now." Mama He said that the Fang family has done the utmost to this niece. up. It's a pity that Xiao Fang doesn't know how to cherish blessings.
Compared with nieces, sons are naturally more important. Fang Shi clenched her fist and said, "You're right, I can't be soft-hearted."
After Wu Kuo knew this, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Wu Jinbao had placed high hopes on him, but in the end he was influenced by a woman.
After thinking for a while, Wu Kuo said: "Let Jin Bao seek a release, and the daughter-in-law can stay at home!" After we separated, Xiao Fang would not be able to influence his son.
Fang thought it was a good idea and nodded immediately. (to be continued)
