When he arrived at Zimingtang, Wen Qingzhu told Wen Shuquan everything about his grandmother's invitation.
After listening to her words, Uncle Wen put down his Xuan pen and looked at Wen Qingzhu with his head lowered.
For a long time, Wen Qingzhu didn't hear him speak.
After a long while, Wen Shuquan finally spoke quietly: "Zhu'er, do you want a mother?"
Wen Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat. Wen Shuquan was definitely not the person to question her.
He must have his purpose in asking this.
After thinking about it again and again, Wen Qingzhu decided to throw the question back: "It doesn't matter whether the daughter has a mother or not. It depends on whether the father wants a wife."
"Really?" Wen Shuquan chuckled.
Wen Qingzhu didn't dare to look up, she couldn't see his emotions, and she couldn't determine Wen Shuquan's intentions. ,
"Let's go, I'll go with you to see mother."
Wen Shuquan finally decided to meet his biological mother Liu.
Half an hour later, they arrived at Fushou Hall.
When Wen Qingzhu arrived, Mrs. Wan, the first lady and her daughter were no longer in Fushou Hall.
Instead, Wen Guanbin sat next to the old lady Liu.
Wen Shuquan and Wen Qingzhu saluted Wen Guanbin and his wife one after the other.
"Quan'er, you're welcome." Mrs. Wen stood up and helped him up.
Wen Guanbin frowned and said displeased: "The third child is no longer a child."
Mrs. Wen hesitated to speak, and finally let go of Wen Shuquan's hand.
After the two sat down, Wen Qingzhu glanced around the room.
There were only Mr. and Mrs. Wen Guanbin and their father and daughter here.
Even Song Yan and Zi Yan who were waiting beside the old lady were not there, there was only Aunt Du.
The scene was extremely quiet for a while.
Until Grandma Sun came back and said something in the ear of old lady Liu.
"Quan'er, you can't always be a widower..." Mrs. Liu and Wen Shuquan were never close, and everything they said was always polite.
"My child has his own plans." Wen Shuquan didn't answer her words at all.
Wen Guanbin's face became increasingly unhappy. Just as Mr. Liu was about to say something, he spoke in advance: "Your second uncle has a concubine with good conduct. Your mother and I think well of her, and we plan to support you."
As soon as these words came out, Wen Shuquan immediately frowned deeply.
Wen Qingzhu lowered his head, held his breath, and tried to reduce his sense of presence as much as possible.
When their father and son discussed the matter of renewing their relationship, why did they involve her
Mrs. Liu knew that she couldn't force Wen Shuquan, so she immediately smoothed things over and said, "After all, she is our legitimate wife. Although it is a continuation of the relationship, we still have to see more."
Wen Guanbin didn't say anything. Mrs. Liu looked at Wen Shuquan and said, "Quan'er, what do you think?"
Wen Shuquan still said the same thing: "Children have their own plans."
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but sweat.
She always thought that the relationship between Wen Shuquan and Wen Guanbin should be able to maintain superficial harmony.
But now it seems that Uncle Wen has fulfilled his filial piety by not leaving on the spot.
"Hmph!" Wen Guanbin slapped the table hard.
Wen Qingzhu closed her eyes, she could not stay any longer.
The old lady obviously asked her to bear Wen Guanbin's anger.
Just when she was about to speak, the old lady looked at Wen Qingzhu and said: "Qi Yatou, in two years you should be talking about marriage. You can't do it without the mistress. Your status is different from the other two, so they can just let you go." That’s it.”
On the surface, he said this for her own sake, but in fact, he just wanted to take the opportunity to make Wen Shuquan compromise.
Wen Qingzhu lowered his head, imitating Uncle Wen and not answering directly: "Marriage matters are all decided by the parents."
It's all up to his parents. He doesn't have a mother, but he still has a father.
Hearing this, the old lady turned green with anger and almost cursed.
Fortunately, Nanny Du next to her said quickly: "Old madam, it's time for you to drink some tea to moisten your throat."
The old lady finally regained her breath and stared at the top of Wen Qingzhu's head.
This damn girl has the same temperament as her dead mother.
The matter remained at a stalemate. No matter what Wen Guanbin and Liu said, Wen Shuquan always answered that sentence.
Even though Wen Guanbin was so angry in the end, he came over and slapped Uncle Wen in the face.
Wen Shuquan still replied calmly.
The sky darkened very quickly, and the Wen family was having dinner tonight.
Couples with big and fourth bedrooms arrived one after another with their children.
Wen Bogui and Wan arrived first. When they came in, the atmosphere in the room was so weird.
Wen Bogui took one look and almost retracted his feet.
Wanshi quickly pushed him and the two of them walked in together.
"Father, mother." Wen Bogui and his wife saluted Wen Guanbin and his wife.
Wen Qingzhu lowered his head and raised his eyes, only to find three pairs of feet.
Behind them, Wen Mingyu came, but Wen Qingfang did not.
Seeing this, Wen Qingzhu's lips curled up.
Wen Qingfang didn't come, so Wanze must have caused quite a stir.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Wen Jihua and Yang came in with Wen Mingliang and Wen Qingxin.
After saluting, they sat aside and remained silent.
In the eyes of old lady Liu, the second bedroom was not considered their family at all, so she specifically asked the second bedroom not to come over.
But Wen Guanbin glanced at the house and found that the second room was not there, so he asked in a deep voice: "Where is Zhong Cong's family?"
The old lady's face froze, and she tried her best to stay calm and said: "They have something to do, so I told them not to come over."
"Is there something wrong with their whole family?" Wen Guanbin was in a bad mood, and he looked at Mr. Liu sideways and looked unkindly.
Mrs. Liu rarely disobeyed Wen Guanbin. She could only say in a calm voice: "Go and invite the people from the second room to come over."
Grandma Du seemed to want to say something, but in the end she took the order and quietly retreated.
After a moment of silence, Wen Mingxuan hurried over.
After saluting, Wen Guanbin looked at Wen Shuquan and asked, "Where are Aunt Wu and the others?"
The old lady could only patiently tell Grandma Sun to invite someone.
Two quarters of an hour later, Aunt Wu, three people, and Aunt Yue and her daughter arrived one after another.
Wen Guanbin pointed his finger at the tabletop at hand. For a long time, no one came to the second room.
He was already a little impatient.
At this moment, Nanny Du rushed back, but she was alone.
"Where are Zhong Cong and the others?" Wen Guanbin's tone already revealed a bit of irritability.
Aunt Du lowered her head and replied: "Go back to Master, Second Master and the others heard that Aunt Ding was ill this afternoon. After asking the old lady for instructions, they went to Zhuangzi."
Wen Guanbin felt something was wrong and glanced at Ms. Liu, but in the end he said nothing.
The corners of the old lady's mouth turned up slightly.
The reason for visiting his biological mother really left Wen Guanbin speechless.
But Grandma Du looked a little anxious.
Wen Qingzhu raised his neck and happened to see this scene.
Immediately afterwards, Nanny Du walked to the old lady and coughed softly: "Old lady, there is something else going on at the banquet. Please help me take a look."
The old lady knew that Nanny Du had something to say, so she asked Wen Guanbin for instructions and then left with Nanny Du.
Wen Guanbin glanced at everyone in the room and said coldly: "Where is Xiaoliu?"
Wan stood up quickly and said, "Fang'er will come right away."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Qingfang walked in step by step with the help of the maid.
Wen Qingzhu and others looked at the door at the same time and found that Wen Qingfang's steps seemed a little unsteady.
Did Wan Ze do something to Wen Qingfang
No, the drug only has a short-term ecstasy effect and has no other effects at all.
While he was thinking about it, Wen Guanbin had already stood up and said: "Since we are all here, let's go and take a seat."
Wen Guanbin walked in the front, starting from the big room, followed by the third room, then the fourth room, and then walked to the next door and sat down.
After a while, the old lady came back.
But her expression was clearly very bad.
Mouthwash tea was put out one by one. After everyone rinsed their mouths, the maids filed in and placed all kinds of delicacies on the table.
The room was suddenly filled with all kinds of appetizing aromas.
But no one had the appetite.
Dafang was very dissatisfied because of Wanze's incident.
Because of the continuation of the relationship, Sanfang didn't want to eat at all.
Because he failed to deal with the fifth prince, the fourth room's thoughts were already far away.
Wen Guanbin and Mr. Liu had their own thoughts, and their expressions were not very good.
Wen Guanbin started to move his chopsticks, and the others moved their chopsticks one after another.
But no one had much appetite. Less than a quarter of an hour after eating, the dining room became silent.
Wen Qingzhu was guessing what Wan Ze had done to Wen Qingfang, when something suddenly happened around him.
Looking sideways, it was Aunt Wu who had stood up.
Her movement was extremely conspicuous, and everyone's eyes fell on her.
But I saw Aunt Wu taking out a box from Mother You behind her, and slowly walked to the old lady Liu.
"Old madam, although Lan'er gave you a gift today, I thought that the gift was nothing, so I prepared another one for you."
After Aunt Wu finished speaking, she opened the box in front of Mrs. Liu.
I only saw a rare piece of purple jade inside, with auspicious words of longevity and longevity engraved on it.
The old lady's eyes lit up: "It's actually Ziyu?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Aunt Wu's box.
But her box was a little deep, and no one could see it except the old lady.
The old lady, who had a sulky face at first, looked a little better after seeing Ziyu.
"You are interested." Mrs. Liu nodded, and Aunt Du beside her immediately accepted it.
The gifts were given out, but Aunt Wu had no intention of leaving.
She looked at Wen Guanbin and said, "Master, I have another gift I want to give you."
"Give it to me?" Wen Guanbin turned to look at Aunt Wu and found that there was nothing else in her hand.
Aunt Wu felt blessed and said with a slight smile: "In half a month, my brother will be promoted, and the master's promotion can also be settled."
As soon as these words came out, Wen Guanbin stood up immediately: "Your brother has been promoted?!"
How can it be!
At this time, Wu Shan was promoted so easily
"Yes, my concubine's brother is here today. He told me personally that this purple jade is my brother's birthday gift to the old lady." Aunt Wu looked at the old lady.
White jade, red jade, and sapphire are all common, but purple jade is rare.
If it weren't for the royal palace and a famous family, it would be really rare to see it anywhere else.
Everyone looked at Aunt Wu with increasingly gloomy eyes.
Especially Wan and Yang, as the direct wives of the Wen family, they have never been as popular as Aunt Wu.
Aunt Wu's brother was actually promoted at this time, and he was able to help Mr. Wen get promoted.
Wen Qingzhu didn't find it strange, but she was confused as to why Wu Shan was willing to help Wen Guanbin get promoted
This is a thankless task.
