Xinglou asked Yueying to stay in the room and watch the child, and not to come out no matter what the situation was.Just went to open the door to let people from the Wu family come in, and it was Zhang Bifang who came.She was newly widowed, still dressed in linen and filial piety, and dressed in plain clothes. Although her face was haggard, she looked radiant in her eyes, as if she was still full of hope.

Although he was a bit puzzled by the Wu family's visitor, Zhang Bifang hadn't acted excessively before, and there was no need for Xinglou to be too rude, and he couldn't bully the widow, so he invited her to sit down and served him tea.

"I don't know why Grandma Wu is here?" Even Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wang could make some sense.

"Before my in-laws were considerate of Lin's giving birth to my Wu family's children, that's why my Wu family's descendants stayed in your house for so long. Now there is enough time, and we are here to pick them up."

Master Wu regretted it later on. If he hadn't felt ashamed at the time and quickly wrote the divorce letter, Mrs. Lin would still be the daughter-in-law of the Wu family at this time, and it would be easy to hold her.But it's too late to say anything now, the parents-in-law feel that they can't lower their attitude to the younger generation, even if they think about the grandson, they still have to save face and don't want to come by themselves, so they have to come to the door to ask. "The mother-in-law has taken care of the little girl for so long, and now she often reads at home after seeing her for so long. And my eldest nephew, who has not yet let me, the aunt, take a look at it." If it is just a granddaughter of the Wu family I don't think about it so much, but I heard that Mrs. Lin gave birth to a fat boy, and now that child is the only blood of the Wu family, so I have to take it back no matter what.

"You're joking, I don't have any descendants of your Wu family here?" Xinglou took a sip of tea unhurriedly. This Wu family has also been favored for a long time. It is obvious that they are here to ask for help, but they still put on airs .

It's also because the Wu family took it too naturally. In their view, it would be inconvenient for Lin, a divorced woman, to remarry later and bring her ex's children with her.No matter how lenient Fang Xinglou is, it's fine to raise his younger sister, but what's the matter with helping others raise their children, it's nothing more than a matter of profit if he doesn't let go.

Zhang Bifang continued to persuade, "Mr. Fang, I also know that you feel sorry for Sister Lin, but it is really hard work for her to raise two children like this. The father-in-law and mother-in-law are the children's own grandparents, will they harm them? Now Xianggong I have already gone with my brother-in-law, that child is the only hope of my Wu family, and the Wu family will be inherited by him in the future, you should think about this win-win thing again."

During this period of time, Zhang Bifang has been thinking about her future for a long time. If she remarries again, she will be light-hearted if she has no children, but what kind of good family can she find for herself after returning to Zhang's stepmother? When he saw himself, he thought of Zhang Biyun, and he didn't give him any good looks, so he might as well stay at Wu's house.She kept the festival for the uncle of the Wu family, and her status was also there, so the Wu family would not treat her too badly.Besides, after taking that boy back from the Lin family, no matter how well he raises him, the Wu family is not weak. After he inherits the Wu family, he will be a serious headed mother.

"There's nothing to consider about this matter. Could it be that I still can't afford to support two children?" Xinglou directly refused without leaving any room for it, not to mention that the child is not from the Wu family's blood, if it really is, he is not so downcast I can't even support my sister's children.I still don't like the Wu family's family background, and because I believed so much before, I married my sister into their family, but when I came back, I saw my relatives being bullied by others, and the anger towards the Wu family also started from there.

Zhang Bifang was a little dumbfounded. She had made a plan, but in the end she couldn't even pick up the child, so what else is there to talk about.Instantly left two lines of tears, "Mr. Fang, do you have the heart to watch our Wu family die?"

"Why do I remember that your surname is Zhang and not Wu?" It's too pretentious, and it makes people look tricky. "There are so many homeless children in Shantang, you can just pick them up, why bother to stare at my sister?" child."

Zhang Bifang didn't expect this, and stopped crying.But it can be seen that there is some emotion, arguing in a low voice, "How can this be the same."

"Of course it's different. Yueying's children always have to recognize her as mother and my uncle. Shantang's children are different. No matter what, their parents will never come to their door." Although Xinglou knew that no matter who it was, All of them have no blood relationship with their Wu family.But to make them stop pestering him, Zhang Bifang came up with such an idea.

Zhang Bifang just wanted to find a child who was easy to handle, and Xinglou's words also awakened her. Instead of finding a mother who is still there, it is better to find someone who is really helpless.As for the blood relationship, if you don't say it yourself, you will keep it a secret from Fang Xinglou's appearance. How does the Wu family know that it is not their own grandson that they are carrying back.

"This...we have agreed..."

"Yueying's child has nothing to do with your Wu family. He takes my surname Fang."

This is to give Zhang Bifang a reassurance, "I will persuade my in-laws to leave Yingzhou Mansion when I go back. It will take about five or six days. Please make it easier for me." The state capital is sad.When she said that she wanted to go back to her hometown to observe filial piety, she still seemed to be very affectionate. Why would Master Wu and Mrs. Wang not agree.

"That's easy to say." After a long time, who still remembers that Yueying gave birth to a child, and the Wu family has Zhang Bifang, so they won't be entangled.

After seeing off the guests, he went back to his room and told Yueying what had happened, and Yueying naturally listened to Xinglou.When Yueying got married back then, the dowry silver given by Xinglou turned out to be useless for Yueying. Looking at the 2000 taels sent back by the Wu family and the remaining 2000 taels of silver notes that Yueying took out, Xinglou felt a little troubled by this sister's character .

I left so much money for her, because I was still struggling in the Wu family.The banknotes have never been taken out, and even the jewelry I bought for myself has not been replaced in the past few years. When I first married to the Wu family, the Wang family thought highly of one of the dowry items she brought, but after a long time, Yueying's temper After being found out, and holding money in his hands, he will not be valued so much.

Xinglou still keeps the money first, and then make plans when he finds a way out for Yueying in the future.The only gratifying thing is that her embroidery skills have improved by not one or two points in the past few years. For such a long time, Ye Su and the Wu family did not leave her enough freedom like Xinglou, and she was detained in the house all the time. , I had no choice but to think about embroidery by myself, practicing natural craftsmanship at any time.

During this period of time, he has been staying in the inn in Yingzhou Mansion, keeping an eye on the movements of Shangjing, but it seems that either nothing major has happened, or the news has been blocked and has not been transmitted.The only big thing is that some time ago, Mr. Liu's family invited a group of young talents for an outing. In the end, they encountered bandits and killed several people.Although the Liu family did more to appease them afterwards, the grief of those families did not ease much.

What Zhang Bifang said was right. Within a few days, the Wu family left Yingzhou Mansion and returned to their hometown in the countryside.Zhang Bifang was worried, and before she left, she sent someone to bring over two small shops. Although it didn't matter to Xinglou, she still accepted them for her peace of mind.Two of them are clothing stores, one is in the east of the city and the other is in the south of the city. The location is not good, and the monthly profit is more than [-] taels of silver.

Xinglou didn't make any other changes, it still employed the same people, and the left and right didn't want to make money from this shop.Instead, in order to train Yueying, he handed over the shop to her to calculate the accounts.Although the stall is small, it still takes some effort to learn a new thing.

In this way, Yueying would have less time to take care of Zhong Lin, so Xinglou wanted to find a nanny to take care of him.Because I am also watching at home at any time, as long as the nanny is healthy and can take care of the baby to eat.Tell Xiaoer about the request, and he will introduce one.

It didn't take long for someone to find them. Women in their twenties and thirties were clean and smart even when they looked friendly.The surname Zhao is called Mother Zhao, and Xinglou is a doctor herself, so she ordered the pulse first if there is no problem, and the price is half a tael a month from her.

Zhao's mother is very capable and takes good care of Zhong Lin, and even Yuxiu likes her very much.But after a long time, Xinglou felt that there were some problems. She had very few calluses on her hands, and her sitting and standing posture was standard. Compared with her price, this ability was too unsuitable.She doesn't look like a poor family who came to be a nanny for others in order to make ends meet. Instead, she seems to be trained by a rich family to do this job.

At this time, two or three months have passed, and Xinglou still thought something was wrong, so he went to find Xiaoer to ask the detailed situation back then.

Xiaoer is also a little embarrassed, she was just doing it for her own convenience, so don't tell me something went wrong "Hey, to tell you the truth, she found an acquaintance herself to find a job like this, and my acquaintance is usually quite reliable .”

"No problem, I'm just asking casually." Telling Xiao Er not to worry about it, Xing Lou himself became pensive.His actions are not a secret, you can find out with a little care.Moon Shadow has just given birth and is very likely to need a nanny.I live in this inn again and have no intention of moving out in a short time, so I leave the errands to the waiter who is in charge of this area.If an acquaintance of the waiter in the shop had been found in advance as a guarantee, there was a high possibility that Zhao's mother would be chosen in the end.

It's an extraordinary time now, and Xinglou has always believed in his intuition, and wants to find the reason for anything wrong.Then he began to pay attention to Zhao's mother's actions. Although she was always cautious, Xinglou still noticed the clues under her stalking without leaving any gaps.

Xinglou carefully followed her home once, remembering the location of the place, and always paying attention to the movements of the people in the house.

In addition to Zhao's mother, there lived an adult man in that house, who was said to be her husband-in-law.That man was in the vegetable business, and would deliver vegetables to some people every three days.What caught Xinglou's attention the most was that when he was sent to Liu's house, it was Uncle Yu himself who came to pick him up.
