At this time, Qin Fang could not verify Wei Wu's words. In front of so many people, Wei Wu had spoken. He could only say: "Even if she is an old friend, Master Wei should not make fun of a woman. A woman's reputation is like a man's loyalty and filial piety. Master Wei, please take it seriously."
Wei Wu also knew that he was wrong. In the capital, they were a group of people of equal status and were used to joking with each other. On weekdays, they would tease a maid or a girl, and they would not do anything. So this time, he just did it casually. Wei Wu said: "Please forgive me, Mr. Qin Qianfu, it's my fault."
Qin Fang didn't know the temperaments of these noble sons, but seeing that Wei Wu had a good attitude, he didn't want to get involved in this matter, so he said, "However, since Master Wei and my wife are old friends, I can't help but pay more attention to him. I will treat Master Wei to dinner tonight, just as I am fulfilling my hospitality on behalf of my wife."
Wei Wu didn't want to go. He was still afraid of Qin Fang, but since Qin Fang had asked, he couldn't refuse. He could only say, "Okay."
Qin Fang: "Okay, everyone take a break. We still have to be on duty at night, so don't be lazy."
"yes."
Qin Fang left the crowd and said to Kun Shi beside him, "Go to the family quarters and tell Madam what happened here."
Kunshi: “Yes.”
Yang Haiyan is instructing Qin Siya in needlework. Speaking of which, in the past month, Qin Siya has been very serious in both learning to read and needlework, and has made rapid progress. Now, in a test every three days, she can remember thirty words and get a reward of three cents.
Aunt Lian said at the door, "Madam, Captain Kun is here. He is here to look for you on the orders of the master."
Yang Haiyan was a little surprised: "Captain Kun, please go to the study."
Aunt Lian: “Yes.”
Kun Shi entered the study, saluted Yang Haiyan first, and then told her what happened in the military camp.
Yang Haiyan was overwhelmed when she heard this. When the Yang family and the Wei family were married, everyone thought that the Wei family and the Yang family were on the same team, but later the Yang family was confiscated and killed, and the Wei family became the confidants of the current emperor. Even though the book did not write about the specific situation, because these people had nothing to do with Yang Dahua, Yang Haiyan could guess that the marriage between the two families was not that simple. The Yang family must have been calculated.
Yang Haiyan is a modern person, and has no interest in the ancient struggle for power and wealth, so she really doesn't want to be related to Wei Wu. According to her original intention, Qin Fang retired and they could live happily in Baili Village. But if Qin Fang wanted to make a name for himself, she would not deliberately stop him, after all, Qin Fang was a person of this era, and he was different from what she knew and thought.
But how could Wei Wu talk nonsense about the relationship between them? Although adopting a godparent could protect her reputation, she did not need this godparent. She was living a good life now.
Moreover, the original novel did not mention Wei Wu. Although there was a story about a noble family member coming to the military camp, the original novel was written with Yang Dahua as the protagonist, so there was not much written about the military camp. But in the few words that were written, Wei Wu was not mentioned. Only occasionally did it mention that the noble family member was not convinced by Han Zhen, a poor boy, and was then taught a lesson by Han Zhen.
Yang Haiyan was filled with a lot of thoughts. She then wrote a letter to Qin Fang. After finishing the letter, she said, "The adults' meal is not ready yet. Please wait a little longer."
Kunshi: “Yes.”
Yang Haiyan: "Remember, this letter must be handed over to you personally, and only to you."
Kunshi said seriously: "Yes."
Kun Shi took the lunch box and the letter and went straight to the military camp.
In the military camp, Qin Fang was also waiting for his news. After he received the lunch box and the letter, he put the lunch box aside and read the letter first.
In the letter, Yang Haiyan wrote about the Yang family, the Wei family, and her affairs clearly. In the letter, Yang Haiyan also expressed her suspicions that the Yang family and the Wei family were related by marriage, and the Yang family failed in the fight for the throne and was killed. The Wei family was clearly on the same team as the Yang family, but became the confidant of the current emperor. Anyone with a little bit of brains would understand the relationship between them.
At the same time, Yang Haiyan also told Qin Fang that these children of noble families were not young anymore, and they would not stay at the border for long, at most two or three years, either without any achievements or with achievements. She told Qin Fang not to care about them or discipline them, and let them do whatever they wanted, and just deal with them for the sake of face.
To put it bluntly, this is still the territory of Yonghe Hou. To put it bluntly, if the original plot is followed and that prince succeeds to the throne, then Yonghe Hou and Han Zhen are both his confidants, and it is not the turn of others to make the decision here.
Even if that prince does not succeed to the throne in this life, the current emperor will not touch the Yonghe Marquis' Mansion in the next ten years. Although the current emperor's people have infiltrated here, the Yonghe Marquis is still the one who calls the shots.
Qin Fang read the letter and knew that Yang Haiyan was not going to have too much contact with Wei Wu, so he made a plan. He put the letter in the brazier and burned it, then went to call Wei Wu to go to the kitchen to eat together.
Wei Wu was still worried, thinking that he would have to eat dinner with Qin Fang, but then Qin Fang showed up. Wei Wu: "Mr. Qin Qianfu."
Qin Fang said, "Master Wei, dinner is ready."
Wei Wu chuckled a few times: "Mr. Qin is so polite."
Qin Fang said: "Master Wei is a guest from afar, so this is the norm, but I still have something to ask Master Wei for help."
Wei Wu said, "Mr. Qin, please speak."
Qin Fang had already made many drafts of what he was going to say in his mind: "Master Wei, I know that during the competition just now, I had to talk about my sister in order to protect my wife's reputation. But Master Wei, please don't mention this matter again. First, Master Wei is a young master of an aristocratic family. If this matter spreads to the capital, it may damage the reputation of the aristocratic family. If Master Wei gets married one day, and the news that Master Wei and the maid are godparents spreads, it will not be good for Master Wei's reputation.
Secondly, Master Wei has just arrived in Yongzhou. If he achieves great things one day, it would not sound good if it were to be rumored that he achieved such success because of the care of my brother-in-law.
Third, my wife is a woman after all. Even if Master Wei said he would take me as his godparents, women are treated very harshly these days. If someone were to spread rumors and ruin the innocence of Master Wei and my wife, I would have to die to pay for it.”
Wei Wu was stunned for a moment. When he heard about dying to apologize, he thought of Miss Yang. After a long while, he said, "It's my fault. I was indeed rude. I hope Mr. Qin will forgive me. But there is no violation of etiquette between Mrs. Qin and me. Please believe me."
Qin Fang: "Of course I believe it." He could see that this Young Master Wei was not a reckless person. He might have been a noble since childhood, so he took it for granted. Besides, even if he didn't believe this Young Master Wei, he still believed his own wife.
The Qin family was very lively today because Meng An and Chen Dashi got married. Although the servants' yard was not big, it could still accommodate two tables of banquets. The banquets of the Meng and Chen families were combined, which meant that each family was responsible for one table, and it didn't cost much.
Moreover, Yang Haiyan also rewarded two chickens and made two large bowls of chicken soup. When the chicken soup was served, it looked very stylish.
There were two tables for the banquet, one for men and one for women, and it was quite lively. The banquet was held at noon because it was not convenient to hold it at night.
Yang Haiyan didn't eat much, and she put down her chopsticks after a few bites. She took out a sachet and said, "Meng An, happy wedding. I wish you and Chen Siwei a long and happy marriage and many children and grandchildren."
Meng An took the sachet and said, "Thank you, ma'am."
Yang Haiyan presented the gift and then stood up and left. As she sat there, everyone else was unable to eat freely.
As soon as Yang Haiyan left, Meng Qiu urged Meng An, "Meng An, come and see what Madam gave you as a reward."
Meng An was a little embarrassed: "Now?"
Meng Qiushi: "What's this? Take a look."
Meng An also knew the character of this sister-in-law, so he had to watch it now. She poured out the contents of the sachet and placed it in the palm of her hand. A pair of pearl earrings were very dazzling in the sun.
Meng An saw it and was filled with joy.
Mrs. Meng Qiu said, "It's really beautiful." The lady is really generous.
Meng An nodded: "Yeah."
In the blink of an eye, it was May 28th.
Because he was on duty at night the day before, Qin Fang could rest during the day on the 28th. In addition, the 29th and 30th were two consecutive days of rest, so when he got off duty on the 28th, he planned to go home for breakfast. His wife would definitely save breakfast for him.
During this period, he didn't pay much attention to Wei Wu, and treated him as an ordinary soldier. However, Wei Wu and Qin Fang rarely met each other. Wei Wu was a soldier, and he was on duty with the centurion. How could Qin Fang take care of these people
Qin Fang changed his clothes in the tent, collected the captain's uniform, packed it up, and prepared to take it back to wash. When he left the tent, he ran into Wei Wu, who seemed to have come to see him on purpose.
Qin Fang raised his eyebrows: "Master Wei, is there something wrong?"
Wei Wu chuckled and said, "Mr. Qin, I want to entrust you with a favor."
Qin Fang asked: "What's the matter?"
Wei Wu: "When you come to the barracks after your leave, can you bring me some cakes?" There is nothing delicious here. The only thing edible is the cakes from Yang Haiyan's pastry shop.
Qin Fang thought about it. Although he didn't want to take it, he couldn't refuse so bluntly: "When I come back, it will be the first day of May, three days."
"Ah?" Wei Wu thought it was a bit long, "Then forget it."
Qin Fang said nothing more and called Kun Shi to go home.
When Qin Fang returned home, he was told by the servant that his wife was not at home and had gone to the countryside. Qin Fang had breakfast and then hurried back to the countryside.
Yang Haiyan went to see the fruits and vegetables. Life in the family room was too boring. If she didn't embroider things every day and then sell them on the platform to pass the time, she felt that she was unbearable.
The carriage arrived at the gate of the manor. Niu Da heard the noise and came out of the manor. He usually stayed in the manor all day long, either observing this or that, and never left the manor. He saw that the person driving the carriage was Uncle Hong: "Uncle Hong."
Uncle Hong got off the carriage: "The madam is here." In the carriage were Yang Haiyan and Nanny Lian, escorting them was Chen Dashi.
