There is a home in the depths of the white clouds

"Brother, I really don't have anyone here." Wu Youwei yawned: "If something happens to you, I'm going to rest."

At this time, Xiao Xiao came in, and was startled when he saw the master and the housekeeper, and even more scared when he saw the two nurses!

"Little old..." The child spoke with a crying tone.

"Come here, Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid, there are thieves coming in, and the master is taking the guard to look for it!" Wu Youwei called Xiaoxiao to come over.

Wearing big padded shoes, Xiaoxiao ran in stompingly, stood behind Wu Youwei, and grabbed the corner of the cloak Wu Youwei was wearing, just to be careful.

Wu Jun walked towards the kang cabinet: "The kang cabinet here is really big."

"I can't help it. After all, there are quilts inside." Wu Youwei spread his hands: "And I made five or six sets of quilts. I can change the bedding and wash them in spring."

Seeing Wu Jun open the door of the kang cabinet, Wu Youwei broke into a cold sweat.

Who knew, Wu Jun actually pulled out a set of quilts!

"Brother, what do you mean?" Wu Youwei quit at that time: "Just open it and have a look, why do you want to pull it out?"

What does this rummaging guy want to do?

And if that person hides inside.head....

"I'm just in case!" Wu Youwei blocked him one after another, making Wu Jun suspicious.

As the eldest son of the Wu family, Wu Jun was smart since he was a child, and when he grew up, he knew the difficulty of his mother, and he never treated his younger brothers and sisters with good face.

If it wasn't for Wu Maid's fame and fame, he couldn't suppress it any longer, and his father would have already gone and no one was protecting him, so he would have done away with it long ago.

At this time, the Wu family can't have an accident, but if something happens to Wu Youwei, that's another matter.

He is now the master of the top i] household of the Wu family, and he can do whatever he wants!

So he opened the door of the kang cabinet quickly and unceremoniously, and pulled out all the bedding.

Wu Youwei's face was very ugly, and he wanted to step forward to stop it, but a corner of a small tile fell from nowhere and hit him right under his feet. It was so small that he wouldn't have noticed it if it hadn't passed by his eyes.

So when he looked up, he found that the beams of the house were pitch-black. He blinked and saw two cold stars in the darkness.

The man in black is on the beam, not in the kang cabinet!

Wu Youwei immediately felt relieved, but he started to find fault with Wu Jun even more fiercely: "Brother, I don't think you are here to find a thief, but rather some kind of enemy. Just search as you say, are you in such a hurry?"

It was fine if he didn't say that, but Wu Jun became a little anxious immediately when he said it.

This concubine may not look like a big man, but his head is absolutely smart. His unusualness may make this concubine see something.

"I'm just worried. Look at your place. There are only two women who keep watch at night. There is not even a night watchman. What should I do if there is something wrong?" But he was not idle, and took out all the bedding.

no one!

"Brother, do you think there is another place to check? How about digging out of the kang hole?" Wu Youwei pointed to the kang and said, "Take apart the pillow and have a look?"

What he said was a little rude.

But at this moment, no one can say anything wrong with him. After all, the blankets and pillows all over the kang are piled up in a mess. It really looks like a house raid, which is too unlucky.

"You don't mind, little brother. I have something to do, so I'll leave first!" Wu Jun was already very depressed because he didn't catch anyone, and being pestered by Wu Youwei made him feel even worse.

He is the boss, and Wu Youwei can't really do anything to him, but today's matter is endless!

Wu Jun arrived like a gust of wind with the housekeeper and the nurse, and walked away together with a whimper. The woman guarding the gate didn't even recover.

Wu Youwei stood at the door and waved his hands: "Brother, let's go, don't send it off!"

The tone is rigid, coupled with the cold north wind, it is especially...unlucky!

Wu Jun staggered, almost tripped, and waved his hands without looking back: "Go back and rest!"

The housekeeper didn't speak from the beginning to the end. He could see that the two masters in the family were at odds with each other. It's just that the master can't do anything to the young master when the mourning period is over. I'm afraid they will have to be separated.

As long as he is respectful to the young master during the period of filial piety, he will be equally divided...who would be afraid of a small juren?

And his youngest son and eldest granddaughter also need to find someone to find out where they are...

After everyone left, Wu Youwei told the two women guarding the door: "There is no need to close the door. If the master comes over later, you still have to make trouble. Just leave the door open. Go back to sleep, sleep!"

Anyway, the door of his room is open three or four times, and it is impossible for anyone to come in quietly.

yes. "If you can sleep, who wants to stand by the door and stay up late in the wind and snow?

The two gatekeepers were immediately pleased.

"Xiaoxiao!" Wu Youwei pulled Xiaoxiao beside him again: "Go back to sleep!"

"Is there really no thief?" Xiao Xiao was a little scared.

"No, I'm afraid the master doesn't like me." Wu Youwei rubbed his head: "Go back and go to bed early, I heard that you will have egg pancakes for breakfast tomorrow!

At this time, eggs are really precious, because it is the twelfth lunar month, and the chickens lay too few eggs, and some simply stop laying, because it is too cold.

Some farmers directly raise chickens in a corner of the kitchen in order to let them lay eggs. The smell in the house is very strong, but in such a warm atmosphere, some chickens only lay one egg in a few days. The price of eggs has increased at this time, which is very precious Woolen cloth!

"Hmm!" Upon hearing that there were soft and sweet egg pancakes to eat, Xiaoxiao finally diverted her attention and went back to her room to sleep peacefully.

Wu Youwei closed the door, entered the bedroom, held up a candlestick, and looked at the beam by the light of the candle, but the person had disappeared.

Wu Youwei sighed, and cleaned up the mess on the kang. In fact, he also knew that it was impossible for Wu Jun not to check the kang cabinet, but he didn't expect that Wu Jun also pulled out the quilt, which was too deceiving!

In ancient times, it was not like modern times. The bedroom was entered at random, usually not by the family members. The bedroom was not allowed to enter the bedroom. In some back houses, apart from the husband, even the son was not allowed to enter the bedroom.

Wu Jun just took advantage of his age and being the eldest brother, he didn't take care of Wu Youwei, he didn't even have the minimum respect. It seems that this place is really not suitable for him.

Although I don't know how the man in black provoked Wu Jun and made him pursue him regardless of the reputation of the female relatives in the backyard, it must be a very important thing.

Wu Youwei came from a later generation, and his vision of seeing things is very different from that of the natives here. He believes that "the enemy of an enemy is a friend", so he took the initiative to cover up for the man in black.

I don't know who the other party is.

After tidying up, Wu Youwei lay down and went to sleep.

In the darkness, like a civet, a black shadow wandered on the roof, slipped out of the gate of the Wu Mansion, looked back, and there was a hint of puzzlement and playfulness in the cold star-like eyes, looking at exactly Wu Youwei's small courtyard.

The next day, on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, after Wu Youwei got up, he went to the backyard with Wu Jun to pay his respects to Madam Wu as usual.

As a result, Wu Jun's eyes turned red and he yawned continuously.

"Brother, didn't you sleep well at night?" Wu Youwei used to often stay up late doing homework assignments, but at that time he still had coffee to refresh himself. Later, he heard that drinking coffee is not good, and it is easy to die suddenly!

He drank tea instead.

"I caught a thief last night, and I was afraid of jumping into the backyard, so I squinted for a while until dawn." Wu Jun hasn't stayed up like this for a long time.

If it was normal, he could still sleep in. Anyway, Shouxiao is at home, so he doesn't have to wake up early and stay late.

But yesterday was fourteen, he was nervous and anxious, he didn't sleep all night, the next day was fifteen, he had to come to say hello, he couldn't sleep late.

But at this time, he was still thinking about the reputation of the family members, so he had to bring it out when he spoke, so that no one would know that the thief had entered the backyard.

Unfortunately, the more he explained, Wu Youwei became more certain that the thief had entered the backyard!

How old was the Hai Rui family's daughter in this era of the highest feudalism?Hai Rui starved to death because he reached out to take the dry food given by the male servant, which shows how much this man and woman are valued in the mansion.

If someone knew that a thief had entered the backyard of the Wu family, the female family members of the Wu family, except for the fourth young lady who was still young, would be able to escape, and Mrs. Wu would be able to escape unscathed, after all, she was already so old.

I am afraid that other female relatives will suffer.

"Have you caught that thief?" Wu Youwei asked with a smile.

"Caught it." Wu Jun said solemnly with a straight face, "I will send it to Shuntian Mansion today.

The government office of the capital is called Shuntian Mansion, and their family lives in the capital, so if something happened, they had to be sent to Shuntian Mansion for resolution.

Caught it?

Wu Youwei frowned: "Where did you catch it?"

...in my study in the front yard. "Wu Jun explained: "He groped in and was discovered by my follower, so he took him down. "

Always follow?

Wu Youwei smiled: "Then you have to reward him well."

"Yeah." Wu Jun nodded.

Taking advantage of the daylight, Wu Youwei found that although Wu Jun had caught someone, he didn't relax much, and he was still a little worried.

Has this person really been caught?

"Where is the prison?" Wu Youwei asked curiously, "Are people watching?"

"He's locked up in the stable in the front yard, and there's a guard watching over him." Wu Jun didn't seem to want to talk about this issue, and walked a little faster.

Wu Youwei raised the corner of his mouth.

Whether this person was really caught or not is something to say!

When they arrived at the old lady's courtyard, a servant girl came in to report. After a while, the old lady asked them both to go in.

The same scene, the same process, after the greeting, it didn't end immediately.

Wu Youwei found that the complexions of the female relatives were quite good, only Mrs. Wu and Wu Qian'er looked bad. Mrs. Wu seemed to have stayed up late and her eyes were a little blue; Wu Qian'er seemed a little panicked.

The others were fine, but after Mrs. Wu paid his respects this time, she stayed behind and didn't let them go directly. Instead, she said kindly and kindly: "It's so cold, you'll have to fill your belly with the cold wind when you go back." , It’s not too late to leave after I have breakfast here.

Stay for dinner?

This kind of treatment is usually someone else's, and it has nothing to do with Wu Youwei. He invited him several times, but he was not left for breakfast. After thinking about it, the original owner didn't have this kind of treatment.

Even for meals, it is served with the old man, and it is in the main room in the front yard, not in the main room in the back yard.

"Okay, I'll listen to my mother." Wu Jun forced a smile and said, "My son and younger brother are brazen enough to beg mother for breakfast here."

Wu Youwei wanted to curl his lips, he didn't want to stay here for dinner, and what is "begging"?

Begging?

He's not there yet, is he?

But after Wu Jun said that, he had no choice but to stay for breakfast.

However, in the Wu family, he, Wu Jun, and Wu Ying ate at the dinner table, and the female relatives opened another table, and the three men shared a table.

Wu Youwei met Mrs. Wu for breakfast for the first time.

I found that the food that Madam Wu eats here is much better than his.

There are only four staple foods for breakfast, egg pancakes, dough pancakes, vegetarian stuffed buns, and shredded radish pancakes.

Rice porridge, millet porridge, corn porridge, multigrain porridge, barley porridge, pumpkin porridge.

Shallots mixed with tofu, cold autumn fungus, shredded cabbage mixed with shredded tofu, seaweed and egg drop soup.

There are six pickles alone, salted duck eggs, shredded salted mustard greens mixed with sesame oil, and shredded salted radish.As well as garlic eggplant, there is also a plate of pickles with cucumber money that Wu Youwei has never seen before. It is crunchy and very delicious.

In addition, there is a plate of kimchi.

The most precious thing is this Sichuan pickle, because it is said that it is a side dish from the south, and there are only one small dish on the table. Wu Youwei saw that Sichuan pickle, which can be bought all over the street, has become an expensive side dish in the future. Speechless.
