Chapter 40 Sophistry

On the Wu side, they heard that Wu Youcai was caught from his bed in the middle of the night. He didn't even know who caught him. He was also thrown in front of Zhang Fu. He was so angry that he smashed another tea set.

"Idiot! Are you raising so many guards just for a living? You don't even know you were taken away in the middle of the night!"

Wu Youcai's expression was stern.

"They used smoke..."

"Miscellaneous smoke, can someone just smoke smoke outside the yard? You don't even notice that someone has entered the house in the middle of the night!" Idiot.

Wu Youcai was scolded as a fool for half an hour, and he was not angry at all. He just felt that this sister's temper had become better and better since she became the Marquis and the Duke's wife.

He was angry, but could he refute? He didn't dare. He and his whole family depended on this sister for their prosperity.

Mrs. Wu was so angry that she asked her younger brother and her mother's family to do something. They had been doing it for several days, but there was no progress at all, and the Duke of the country knew about it.

"You didn't tell anything about your brother-in-law, did you?"

Wu Youcai waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no. I'm very strict with my words. How could I let my brother-in-law know about it?"

If his brother-in-law knew about it, he, his whole family, and even his sister would be in trouble.

"Sister, my brother-in-law will definitely come and ask you. Do you want to think about how to tell your brother-in-law?"

"I still need you to teach me!"

The Wu family was very angry. Seeing that the Duke of Guo was about to invite Jie'er to be crown prince, news suddenly emerged that the two scoundrels were still alive.

Even after Jie'er applied for the title, those two scoundrels appeared in front of her, but it would not affect the overall situation. She could be said to be dead even if she was alive. After all, the emperor's eloquent words and the canonization letter in the golden book, who dares to deny it.

Wu was so hateful that she almost bit her back molar. She also hated Zhang Fu because he was the one who delayed it. Xie'er was already eleven years old, not two or three years old. He was afraid that he would not be able to support himself until now.

, I haven’t been able to request a seal for a long time.

"Are the Huo siblings the same?"

Wu Youcai was a little unsure: "I went to Huojiaba to inquire. His grandmother said that the girl was not from her family, but everyone said that the younger one was her biological child. I also went to Jiangning County to check the household register. Although they were Jianwen Si

The household registration is in the same year, but the age doesn’t match.”

Idiot! Wu was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

"Then you can't find a single household in the capital that meets the conditions?"

"There are hundreds of families in Beijing with girls aged 16 and boys aged 10. The investigation has not been completed yet."

idiot!

"If we don't have enough manpower, add more manpower to investigate. Also, hasn't the Zhou family been found yet? A powerless woman can't even find anyone in the secret cabinet!"

"I'm afraid I'm being hidden. The Ange doesn't dare to do much in the capital, for fear of being watched by the superiors."

Wu was so angry that her chest hurt. Two scoundrels and a nanny were all helpless. They spent so many people and sent so many people, but they couldn't even find a shadow. You idiots.

"Spend more money and send more people to look for it!"

"yes."

Wu Youcai wanted to say something more, but when his servants reported that the Duke had returned home, he was so frightened that he stuffed the banknotes into his arms and slipped away through the corner door where the servants had left.

Zhang Fu had just returned home and heard that Wu Youcai had entered the house. He frowned and strode towards Wu's courtyard.

When I got to the yard, I saw that only Wu was pruning the flower branches with flower scissors, but Wu Youcai was not there. I looked around and asked, "Where is Wu Youcai?"

Wu glanced at him with an irritated look: "Master, he is the biological uncle of Jie'er and Baguio, and my biological brother. You always call him Wu Youcai Wu Youcai, and let outsiders hear it, as if you don't recognize this brother-in-law.

Same."

Zhang Fu didn't have much enthusiasm for Wu's natal family, and the Wu family always wanted to cling to the son-in-law of the Duke of Guo. They would always find various reasons to invite this good son-in-law to his home for dinner, so that the neighbors could see that he had a son-in-law.

To be a Marquis, to be a good son-in-law to the Duke of the country.

However, it was rare for Zhang Fu to go there only once in ten times.

When I went there, I just ate and left, my buttocks were not warmed by sitting on them, which made Mrs. Wu resentful.

If Zhang Fu was willing to show some respect to her, she would not be looked down upon among the ladies and ladies in the capital.

At least in the Zhang Mansion, the two sisters-in-law and the Wang family did not dare to look down upon her.

However, Zhang Fu was like a military warrior who didn't understand the charm. Wu broke his back molars and grinded them for a long time, but he still didn't understand.

Zhang Fu didn't listen to Wu's words and only said: "He left?" When he came back, did he avoid him?

"I left early. If I knew I could run into you, I wouldn't even be able to drive you away. I would stay to eat and drink with you. It's not like you don't know about him. You wish you could make the whole capital know that he has a prince."

brother-in-law."

Zhang Fu frowned.

Looking at Wu: "I heard that you sent him to look for a sixteen-year-old girl and a ten-year-old boy outside? Why is that? And he also went to the dark pavilion?"

Mrs. Wu panicked, but quickly calmed down.

"What did the Duke say? Why are you looking for a sixteen-year-old girl and a ten-year-old boy? Why should I look for them? If it had been earlier, I might have wanted to find someone similar to Jie'er's age to be his companion.

Now that Jie'er has grown up, what should I do with a ten-year-old boy?"

Wu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "Looking for a sixteen-year-old girl? This is even more funny. My son is only eleven years old. I can't find a sixteen-year-old girl as my daughter-in-law. How can I

Is it okay to be a concubine for Baguio?"

"What nonsense!"

Zhang Fu shouted, "Can a family like theirs marry their daughter to a concubine?"

"Yes, yes, I said something wrong. It's the Duke of the country. When he came in, he was confused and said that I was looking for a girl or a boy. Our house has two bedrooms and three bedrooms. My brother is not married.

There are many sisters, why should I look for boys and girls?"

Zhang Fu looked at her steadily, "Isn't it really what you are looking for? But Wu Youcai was caught and thrown in front of me. I'm afraid he didn't create it out of thin air."

Wu gritted her teeth and secretly hated Wu Youcai for not being cautious.

He rolled his eyes and helped Zhang Fu to sit down on the chair.

Somewhat unspeakably, he said: "Sir, my younger brother has been very successful in the Shibo Company in recent years relying on his relationship with the Duke. He has come into contact with many foreigners, who come from poor rural areas.

Have you ever seen such a prosperous scene like ours? I'm afraid they have some special hobbies, and those who go on long voyages like to talk about things most. Maybe they are looking for a lucky girl and a lucky boy to keep the ship safe?"

"Really?"

Wu tilted her head: "I don't know who I am, but I heard youcai say something about it. Those people are weird and have all kinds of requests. I came all the way here, and youcai and the others have been ordered by the emperor to do well.

If you receive them, you might be doing something for someone else."

Zhang Fu looked at Wu and said, "You know me. If you let me know that you have done something outrageous and unreasonable without telling me, I will not be lenient."

"Yes, sir, don't worry. I am the wife of a prince, my husband is the prince, and my son is also the future prince. What else can I ask for?"

"It's best like this." Zhang Fuding glanced at her and strode out of the hall.
