Chapter 154 Boarding the car
Wen Mingqian dressed neatly and walked out of the room, only to see the yard full of people.
Sun Xiucai, Ma Pingan, Mama Zhu, Liu'er...
"Madam..." Ma Pingan, a big man, choked up after saying only two words.
Wen Mingqian has been the housekeeper for less than half a year, but everyone is convinced. She treats her servants with kindness and kindness, and she always understands whoever is in trouble.
Moreover, he is fair and reasonable, and is convincing in both rewards and punishments.
"Madam, everyone can't bear to leave you." Zhu's mother said while wiping away tears.
"A tent is set up thousands of miles away, and there is always a banquet. You don't have to be sad about my departure," Wen Mingqian suppressed the sadness in his heart, "I owe you all for your help during these days in the house. You are all diligent and conscientious people, and everything will go smoothly in the future."
Wen Mingqian has already made everything clear about the affairs in the house. She came clean and will leave clean.
It is early winter, but the sun is particularly nice.
Wen Mingqian raised his head and saw that the sky was clear and blue without any clouds.
"Auntie, let's go!" Sang Er said softly.
"Okay." Wen Mingqian took her hand and walked out of the yard.
A large group of people came to see me off.
Going further, Gong Rang and his wife, as well as Gong Jing'an and Gong Yu'an were waiting at the second gate.
"Ming Qian, we are here to see you off. The old lady will not come out if she is not well." The look on Gong Rang's face was quite regretful, but he did not try to keep Wen Mingqian anymore.
"Thank you very much. Please take care of yourself in the future." Wen Mingqian said sincerely.
"Ming Qian, if you have any difficulties in the future, just ask. Until then, the friendship between us will be there." Webster said with red eyes.
"Sister, you must take care of yourself." At this time, Wen Mingqian had reconciled with Gong Xu, and she no longer called Wei Shi sister-in-law, but sister.
The last box was carried onto the car, which was hired by Sang Er.
Wen Mingqian turned to everyone and said: "Thank you all for sending me off. It's very cold. Go back quickly!"
"Sister, this is a gift from the old lady. Please take it. She said to give it to You won't accept it if you have more, but you must accept this." Webster stepped forward and handed a purse to Wen Mingqian.
Wen Mingqian had already bid farewell to the old lady before, and the old lady could see that she was heartbroken. Although she couldn't be sad, she didn't force it anymore.
On the contrary, he complained a lot about himself, saying that he was too stupid back then, allowing his youngest son to have an extramarital affair, and bringing back the family troublemaker Song.
Wen Mingqian comforted her for a while, urging her to take care of herself and relax her mind.
Wen Mingqian pinched his purse and knew that there were banknotes in it, but the amount was probably not large. , so he did not refuse: "Then please thank the old lady for me."
"And this, it is a little bit of your brother and I's thoughts. You must accept it, otherwise you won't be here today." I want to leave." Webster said again. He gave Wen Mingqian a purse and said, "Take care of yourself and speak up if you have any difficulties."
The situation in front of him made Wen Mingqian think that when he had been wronged and left Beijing, only Webster gave him money.
She knew Webster's character well, and it would be too unkind if she refused to accept it.
"Thank you sister, and please take care of yourself! If you need my help with anything, don't be polite." Wen Mingqian shook Webster's hand, feeling sad in his heart.
The curtains of the carriage were lowered, and the coachman shouted to the horses to move forward. The wheels crunched on the ground, making a squeaking sound.
The carriage moved very slowly, but everyone knew that Wen Mingqian would never look back once he left. Gong Xu stood in the second door, supported by a boy. His foot injury was not healed yet.
Wen Mingqian left, and he didn’t even have the courage to send him off.
"Master, it's too cold outside, I'd better help you go back." The boy said cautiously.
"Go back!" Gong Xu seemed to sigh from his chest. From the moment Wen Mingqian said he was leaving, his heart seemed to have turned into a lead weight, sinking heavily.
He fell so hard that all his bones seemed to be broken. He had no strength to straighten his body, and he was even weak to speak.
"I will help you back to Aunt Yun's house," the boy said.
“Go to the study room.” Gong Xu said harshly.
After hearing this, the boy did not dare to disobey and helped him to the study.
After finally helping him sit down, the boy hurriedly asked: "Master, would you like some tea?"
"Go get me some wine." Gong Xu said, "Tell them to hurry up."
"Master, your foot injury hasn't healed yet, so you shouldn't drink alcohol." The boy couldn't help but advise.
"You are my master?!" Gong Xu was furious and pushed everything on the desk to the ground. His pens were smashed and smashed, making the books and papers wet.
"Whatever I want you to do, do it quickly. Am I unable to control you?!" Gong Xu's eyes were wide open, looking scary.
The boy hurriedly said: "Master, please calm down. I don't dare anymore. I'll go get you a drink right now."
Of course he knew that Gong Xu was in a bad mood, so he thought it would be better not to disobey him again. , so he quickly packed up the things on the ground and hurried out.
Yunying went to see Wen Mingqian back and sat silently by the bed, dazed for a long time.
"Auntie, I just heard that the master was angry in the study. Do you want to go and have a look?" Mrs. Bai came in and followed Yunying.
“I’m tired of meeting everyone right now,” Yunying said, “It’s better to wait a while before going!”
It took a long time before Yunying went to the study.
Gong Xu was already drunk at this time.
"Master, it's cold in the study, you'd better go to my place!" Yunying knows her identity and what she should do. She only needs to protect her palace and raise her children. That's enough.
Her treatment of Gong Xu is no different from that of Song Xiulian, except that she does not have the intention to harm others.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu” , why is she so cruel! ”
Until now, Gong Xu was still unwilling to give in. He could still pretend to be drunk when he was not drunk, but now he was as decadent and weak as a puddle of mud.
"Master, don't be sad anymore." Yunying persuaded him, but there was no sympathy in her heart. "Perhaps this is the only fate you and Madam have! If you are to blame, it's Yue Lao who pulled the strings in the first place. "I just did something wrong unintentionally. Why is she so fussy about it? The other wives may not have suffered less than her, so how can they still live on?" Gong Xu poured out his dissatisfaction.
"The master is drunk and can't drink anymore. Mother Bai, call a few people over quickly and carry the master back to the room to rest." Yunying rubbed her sore waist, she didn't want to Stand here and listen to drunk talk.
Several people then came in and carried Gong Xu back to the bedroom.
For the next half month, Gong Xu kept company with wine every day. He would get drunk and wake up, and he would not even go to the Yamen.
The whole person was dejected and decadent, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.
