Zhang Fu didn't quite believe what Wu and Wu Youcai said.
But as for what they were going to do, I couldn't figure it out for a while. I decided to investigate secretly.
He wasn't familiar with Nian'er's sister, but Mu Yan, Zhang Fu felt that he wouldn't do anything wrong. What could a young master of the Duke's mansion have that others planned? Or could there be anything that others could control? Would he follow others to do whatever they want?
Zhang Fu doesn’t think so.
He always felt that Nian'er's sister gave him an indescribable feeling.
When she looked at him with such complicated eyes, Zhang Fu felt that his breathing was tight. He was a little sad, and felt sour in his heart, with indescribable emotions.
Was she adopted by the Huo family? What about her original parents?
It's the end of the year, and Zhang Fu is very busy, but he always thinks of those eyes when he has some free time.
There has been no news from Zhang Jin, which makes Zhang Fu a little annoyed.
Also annoyed was Huo Xi.
She knew that Zhang Fu was blind and blind, but she didn't take it to heart. It only took two days for her to lose her temper. But what Mu Yan said to her on the cruise that day made her sleepless.
Promise yourself? Is it true or false?
He is the eldest young master of the Duke's palace. He is already very old. Is there no one to help him arrange his marriage? Is there something wrong with him? Don't all these wealthy families fall in love at the age of fifteen or sixteen?
My biological father doesn’t care, but doesn’t he still have a biological mother in the capital? Why is he the only one left? He’s a very good young man.
He also said that if they were compatible, he would devote his whole body and soul to it. He knew what a promise it would be to take only one scoop of weak water, so he dared to be so careless. He also called her stupid.
Huo Xi punched the pillow several times and made several strange screams.
"Girl, girl, are you okay?" Vanilla and Xia He heard the voice and ran into the inner room quickly.
Huo Xi buried her head on the pillow and hummed, "It's okay." Without raising her head, she stretched out her hand and shook it at them.
Vanilla and Xia He looked worried and sat down under the footrest, "Girl, you can't sleep. Do you want us to talk to you?"
Xia He was afraid that she would suffocate him, so he pulled the quilt on Huo Xi's body. Huo Xi was embarrassed and held on to the quilt to prevent her from succeeding. Xia He couldn't pull it, so he left it alone.
Like Vanilla, she sat down on the footrest and said, "Girl, my mother said that Zhang Jin doesn't seem to be here anymore."
Huo Xi was stunned for a moment, then poked her head out from under the quilt: "Didn't you ask your mother to stay in the workshop first? Your mother still ran out."
"My mother didn't go out, but she sent someone to look outside, and it seems she didn't see Zhang Jin."
Huo Xi nodded and said she understood: "It's better to ask your mother not to go out for the time being. She should not be lonely if she has a wet nurse to keep her company."
"Yes. My mother can understand all the gestures of Mother Zhou. My mother likes to talk to her. The two of them are together so they are not lonely. When they are together, they are worried about the girl and the young master."
Vanilla also echoed: "We adults don't have much to do. We have things to do when we stay in the house. We can always pass the time by doing some needlework for women. Even the young master is standing at the door every day, holding the door frame and looking out. He is wilting. The slaves are watching.
Could not bear."
Huo Xi was silent.
She was worried that people from the Wu family would arrest her family members and threaten her and Nian'er, telling them not to go out. An An was detained at home and couldn't go outside to play with her friends. She must be bored.
It's not an option to continue like this.
I heard that Mr. Storyteller’s place was packed with people. How come Zhang Fu didn’t have the slightest suspicion? Did she really want her and Nian’er to come to the house to recognize their relatives?
On Wu Youcai's side, after hearing the news sent to him by the Wu family, he knew that his sister had fooled his brother-in-law, and he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
I took the money and started looking for someone again, this time I was more covert.
Whether his nephew can successfully obtain the title of Crown Prince is related to his sister and the fate of his Wu family for generations, which cannot be ignored in the slightest.
Wu Youcai returned to the house where Gan Yuan lived.
Gan Yuan was dressed beautifully, leaning on the couch with her eyes closed, spreading her hands and feet for the girls to squeeze her shoulders and rub her hands and feet. The two maids, one on each side, relaxed her fingers and were coloring her nails.
Gan Yuan closed her eyes with a look of enjoyment.
Wu Youcai's eyes flashed, he really looked down on her behavior as a country bumpkin who suddenly got rich, but he couldn't move her yet and had to hold her steady. He raised his hand and waved away the girls.
When Gan Yuan saw him coming back, she came up happily and said, "Wu Lang, are you back?"
Wu Youcai picked up her palm and looked at it. After raising it for a few days, it became much whiter and tenderer. He kissed the back of her hand twice and asked, "Are they very comfortable to serve you?"
"Comfortable. Wu Lang made a good choice."
After being kissed by Wu Youcai, Gan Yuan felt extremely sweet in her heart.
Wu Youcai often played with her in front of the girl's servants and never avoided people. It made Gan Yuan experience a life that she had never experienced before. Is this how wealthy couples express their love?
Also, the servants have all signed personal contracts, how can they still give advice on the master's life? Gan Yuan quickly adapted to this wealthy life.
Leaning into his arms, the two played around for a while. Wu Youcai looked at her in his arms: "That stepmother of yours..."
"She is not my stepmother."
"Yes, yes, Mrs. Zhou, where is her hometown? And your brother's father, where is his hometown? Do they have any acquaintances in the capital?"
Gan Yuan sat up from his arms and said, "You haven't found them yet?" Gan Yuan was a little worried. What if she didn't find them and they found out that she had snitched and came to take revenge on her?
He tilted his head and thought for a while, "I don't know where the Zhou family is from. That Wu Dayou seems to be from near the capital. He seems to be related to something..."
"Liuhe?"
"Yes, it's Liuhe. I remember my grandparents asked him about his origins, and he said he was from near the capital and worked in the capital. But it seems that there are no people in his hometown anymore. He probably won't go back to his hometown."
Wu Youcai also felt that if they wanted to hide, they would not be so stupid and hide back to their hometown.
But ordinary people find it difficult to make a living outside, go to other places where they are not familiar with the place, and there are a lot of unruly people in the area, so they may go back to their hometown with their families to make a living.
"Think about it again, who bought Wu Chengye in the first place?"
Who bought him and how could she know.
When my mother was still alive, she didn't like him and wished she could sell him away. Everything was handled by her. She was too arrogant in front of her mother. She didn't know who bought Wu Chengye.
But you can't say this to Wu Youcai, otherwise he will feel useless.
Gan Yuan rolled her eyes, "It was the people from Guangfeng Shui Company who bought him. Guangfeng Shui also has a shop in Pingjiang, but our home is in Pingjiang, and they will definitely not leave people in Pingjiang. So they took him with them.
Went to Songjiang. You only need to check Guangfeng Water and you can find him."
Guangfeng water?
Wu Youcai has also checked this business these days. It only has two shops in the capital, and it is not very eye-catching. However, Guangfeng Shui and Langguang Pavilion have partnered in the sea trade business, so they may have some background.
"Wu Lang, don't you have someone in the palace? Your brother-in-law is also the Duke of the country. Can't you deal with a small business? If you press hard, they can't do business, why don't they hand over their people to you?"
