Wen Qingzhu walked in quickly and told Lu Tao to close the door.
After looking around the room and finding nothing out of the ordinary, he asked Jasmine: "What's going on?"
Jasmine replied: "An hour after the young lady left, Aunt Wu and the fourth young lady paid a sudden visit. They insisted on seeing the young lady."
"What happened next?" Wen Qingzhu sat down with peace of mind.
Jasmine stood beside her and continued: "The servants said that the young lady has gone to bed and asked them to come back tomorrow, but they insisted on coming in and they all broke into your bedroom door. If Mother Ye hadn't come here with Peony and the others, Aunt Wu and the others said Maybe he really broke in."
"Did they say why they wanted to see me?" Wen Qingzhu felt a little strange.
Why do they want to see me in the middle of the night
"They told me they wanted to thank the young lady for interceding for them in front of the old lady."
Wen Qingzhu thought for a while and finally understood: "So that's it."
"Miss, it was only after Aunt Yue came that Aunt Wu and the others were willing to leave." Jasmine didn't understand what she meant, but she continued.
Wen Qingzhu asked again: "What did Aunt Yue do?"
"Aunt Yue said that she also wanted to see the young lady, so that she could be with Aunt Wu. When Aunt Wu heard this, she immediately changed her face. After a stalemate for a quarter of an hour, she took the fourth young lady back to the west courtyard."
After listening to Jasmine's words, Wen Qingzhu nodded: "I understand, you will come with me to listen to Qinxuan tomorrow."
It seems that Aunt Wu didn't know about her going out, but she really wanted to see her for something.
But Aunt Yue arrived in such timely manner, so she most likely knew that she was not here.
Aunt Yue has been the housekeeper for only more than two months, but she is already so well-informed.
She had to repay Aunt Yue properly for this favor.
Early the next morning, news came from the West Hospital that Aunt Wu and her daughter were sick.
Wen Qingzhu was sitting in the small hall eating, and when he heard Xi'er's report, he smiled and said nothing.
Aunt Wu really has something up her sleeve.
In this way, Wen Mingqian will definitely come to the West Courtyard.
Wen Mingqian knew that their mother and daughter had been wronged, and Wen Shuquan would naturally know too.
After putting down his chopsticks, Wen Qingzhu stood up and told Lu Tao: "You prepare Sanyuan soup with Shaoyao at home, and I will take Jasmine to Tingqinxuan."
"Don't worry, miss, I will be ready." Lu Tao nodded and turned to go to the backyard.
After taking Jasmine out, as soon as they arrived at the small garden, they met Wen Mingqian who was hurried over.
"Tenth brother." Wen Qingzhu smiled lightly.
He already knew everything about last night.
Now seeing Wen Qingzhu, he looked at her angrily, ignored her, and walked straight over.
Looking at Wen Mingqian's back, Wen Qingzhu shook his head regretfully.
Aunt Wu called Wen Mingqian to the backyard many times, and Wen Shuquan must have been unhappy.
Although the Wu family was able to help Wen Guanbin, they did not help Wen Shuquan.
As a result, Wen Shuquan must be dissatisfied.
When we arrived at Tingqinxuan, Aunt Yue was already prepared.
As soon as Wen Qingzhu arrived, he was invited to sit down, and the table was fully stocked with refreshments.
"Auntie is interested." Wen Qingzhu said politely.
Aunt Yue poured the tea herself and smiled kindly: "Miss Qi, there is no need to be polite. In this Yanyuan, you are the proper master. These are what a maid and concubine should do."
Wen Qingzhu took her tea and took a sip.
It's the best Longjing tea.
"Auntie, Xiao Qi came here mainly to thank you. I was too tired to serve my grandmother last night, so I took a rest early. You have to worry about things in the east courtyard."
Aunt Yue nodded respectfully and said: "You're welcome, Miss Qi. Your health is not good. You worked hard for so long last night and you should have rested earlier. I know you like peace and quiet, so you didn't stop me early last night." Aunt Wu, I have neglected my duty. From now on, I will definitely take good care of the house so that others will not disturb you at will."
The corners of Wen Qingzhu's lips curled up.
Listening to this, even though I knew she was flattering, I still felt extremely comfortable.
This month's aunt is indeed a sensible person. It seems that she really knows what happened last night when she went out.
But since she has shown her loyalty, Wen Qingzhu will not be stingy.
"Jasmine."
Jasmine behind her took out a piece of paper from her sleeve.
After putting it on the table, Wen Qingzhu pushed it to Aunt Yue: "Auntie, my father has been working a lot lately. This recipe for Sanyuan Tang was left to me by my mother. It nourishes the kidneys and nourishes the qi. My father liked it very much back then."
Looking at the prescription on the table, Aunt Yue was slightly startled.
Wen Shuquan still likes the recipe for nourishing the kidneys and qi...
She had to think more about these two short sentences.
After pondering for a moment, Aunt Yue accepted her position and hesitated for a long time before asking: "Is this really okay, my concubine?"
"My father is in his prime, of course my aunt can do it." Wen Qingzhu smiled lightly.
Hearing her affirmation, Aunt Yue couldn't help but get excited no matter how calm she was.
What she has less than Xiyuan is a son.
After Aunt Yue calmed down, Wen Qingzhu said again: "Auntie, you must learn this Sanyuan Soup carefully. In the past two days, I will go back to prepare Sanyuan Soup. I plan to visit my father. I want to spend some time here. He will come to Yanyuan again. , Auntie, you must seize the opportunity."
Aunt Yue stood up and saluted: "Thank you very much Miss Seventh for your kindness. If you need anything in the future, just ask Miss Seven and I will do whatever I can."
Wen Qingzhu didn't pay much attention to Aunt Yue's words.
After returning to the east courtyard, Shaoyao delivered Sanyuan Decoction.
Wen Qingzhu picked up a small spoon, scooped out a little, and tasted it.
After putting down the spoon, she ordered again: "After the heat is over, do it again."
"Yes." Shaoyao came over and took down the Sanyuan Tang.
Half an hour later, Shaoyao brought another bowl.
Wen Qingzhu tasted it and put down the spoon: "No! Make it again."
Another half an hour later, Shaoyao served another serving.
After tasting it, Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "No!"
Over and over again, it was not until evening that Shaoyao cooked a Sanyuan soup that satisfied her.
After looking at the sky, Wen Qingzhu stood up and told Lu Tao: "Prepare a cup of Sanyuan Soup and follow me to Zimingtang."
The two arrived at Zimingtang and met Cao Yu at the door of Wen Shuquan.
"Manager Cao, please send a message and I'll bring soup to father." Wen Qingzhu was very polite.
He had heard a little bit about what happened to Aunt Wu in Fushou Hall yesterday.
The old lady was so polite to Aunt Wu, so she thought that coming to the Wu family would be able to help Mr. Wen.
Once successful, Aunt Wu's status will definitely rise with the tide.
Thinking of this, Cao Yu smiled and said: "Miss Qi, I'm so sorry. Master San doesn't like to be disturbed by others at this time. Why don't Miss Qi go back first?"
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyebrows and said with a meaningful smile: "Manager Cao, my father said last time that if I want to come, I can come."
Upon hearing this, Cao Yu replied without changing his expression: "In this case, let me go in first and report it."
Wen Qingzhu nodded.
After Cao Yu entered, Lu Tao immediately rolled his eyes.
Why I don't like being disturbed by others is because I look down on our young lady.
The green pottery of the past might not be able to help but curse.
But now, following Wen Qingzhu, she has learned to be patient.
Soon, Cao Yu turned around and came out, stood on one side, raised his hand respectfully and said: "Miss Qi, Third Master, please come in."
"Thank you, Manager Cao." Wen Qingzhu nodded slightly and stepped in.
Once inside the house, Wen Shuquan still lowered his head to attend to official duties.
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward and shouted in a soft voice, "Dad, Zhu'er is here."
Wen Qingzhu used to be elegant and dignified in front of Wen Shuquan.
Now the sudden soft voice made Uncle Wenquan's ears twitch, and then he raised his head.
Wen Qingzhu was seen clasping his hands behind his back, tilting his head slightly, smiling at him with a delicate look.
Wen Shuquan was startled: "Why is Zhu'er here?"
"Lv Tao, bring up the Sanyuan Soup." Wen Qingzhu waved.
Lu Tao came forward with the plate and placed it next to Wen Shuquan.
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward and opened the lid of the porcelain cup, and a unique aroma suddenly overflowed.
Uncle Wen was stunned when he smelled this smell.
Memories are like running water, constantly pouring in front of my eyes.
Wen Qingzhu was very satisfied with his reaction, but he couldn't let him think too deeply, so he reminded him: "Father? Drink it earlier, otherwise it won't taste good after it gets cold."
Uncle Wen came back to his senses and looked at Wen Qingzhu, who looked like Lu in front of him, with a complicated mood.
After a while, he nodded and said, "Yes."
Taking the soup bowl, the temperature is suitable.
In just a few seconds, Uncle Wen drank it all in one gulp.
After putting down the soup bowl, Wen Shuquan asked: "Is this Sanyuan soup?"
Wen Qingzhu picked up the tray, handed it to Lu Tao, and then replied: "Yes, my mother taught me this. I didn't pay attention and refused to learn it seriously before. I found this recipe a few days ago, so I learned it seriously. Let dad have a taste."
"Zhu'er is interested." Wen Shuquan gave a rare smile.
After chatting with Wen Shuquan for a while, Wen Qingzhu withdrew.
When Wen Qingzhu left, the study became quiet again.
For some reason, Wen Shuquan found that he felt a sense of loss.
Is it because of drinking Sanyuan Soup
Sanyuan Decoction was once a tonic soup prepared specially for him by Mr. Lu. He had never drank it since Mr. Lu's death.
After drinking it today, he missed it very much.
After leaving Wen Shuquan's side, Wen Qingzhu stopped by to see Wen Mingxuan.
As soon as I walked into the house, I heard someone talking inside.
"Brother Thirteen, please come sleep here with me from now on, otherwise Brother Five will try his best to embarrass you again."
Wen Qingzhu opened the curtain and went in, looked at them and said, "Who wants to embarrass Zhou Qi?"
"Seventh sister!"
"Sister!"
Wen Mingqi and Wen Mingxuan stood up at the same time.
Wen Qingzhu looked up and found Wen Mingqi's eyes were red.
She walked over, touched Wen Mingqi's head, and asked, "What happened?"
Wen Mingxuan looked at Wen Mingqi: "Can I tell sister?"
"Okay." Wen Mingqi's voice was a little hoarse.
After getting permission, Wen Mingxuan explained: "That's it, doesn't Fifth Brother live with Thirteenth Brother? In recent days, Thirteenth Brother's homework, textbooks, and some books have all disappeared one after another. Brother Thirteen was punished by the teacher for this, and today he discovered that Brother Five had sent someone to steal it, tear it up and throw it into the well."
Why did Wen Mingwei suddenly target Wen Mingqi like this
Is it because of my true aunt
"Zhuo Qi, you stay here in Mingxuan these days, and the seventh sister will help you check." Wen Qingzhu touched Wen Mingqi's head, and he probably had a direction in his mind.
"Thank you, Seventh Sister, but my mother recently said that it is best for Seventh Sister not to come to our Liuyuan. Grandma doesn't like you going to Liuyuan." Wen Mingqi was worried about Wen Qingzhu again.
