Chapter 228
Wen Die has been staying in her boudoir for the past few days, so she would be in a daze.

"Miss, you have held all the books upside down." Yuan'er said helplessly. This is not the first time that her young lady has been so absent-minded.

Wen Die reacted and turned the book in his hand around awkwardly.

Mrs. Wen heard clearly outside the door, shook her head helplessly, and then walked in.

"Die'er, what are you thinking about?"

When Wen Die heard her mother's voice, she quickly stood up and said, "Mom, I didn't think about anything. I was reading historical records."

Mrs. Wen sighed and said: "How can I, a mother, not know your thoughts?"

Wen Die lowered her head and whispered, "Mother..."

Mrs. Wen touched her head and said: "Mom, I have been around your age, and it is the time when love started. Mom can understand, but as women, we must have the backbone, and we cannot let ourselves be distracted all day just because of a man. , Absent-minded, how can you still be as calm and calm as you were before now?"

Wen Die said: "Mom, I'm sorry!"

Mrs. Wen said: "Silly boy, you are not sorry. I just hope that you can pick it up and put it down in the future, and don't abuse yourself."

"My daughter remembers it, thank you mother for teaching me."

Mrs. Wen nodded and said, "Let Yuan'er freshen up and dress you up. The Xu family has invited your father to dinner in the evening, and we will go together then."

Wen Die was surprised at first, and then said: "Mom, don't you usually like to go out?"

Mrs. Wen said: "It's not that I don't like him, it's just that my mother usually likes to be quiet, but this time is different. I want to see what the person who makes my daughter miss me all day long looks like."

Wen Die's face turned red with embarrassment when she heard this. She shook her mother's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom!"

"Okay, mother, I won't say anything anymore, but I want to tell you in advance, if this young mother is not satisfied, you must listen to mother and forget about him as soon as possible!"

Wendie bit her lip and nodded in agreement.

"Mom, I only want you to be happy in the future, and I don't expect you to be rich and powerful in the future. You are simple-minded and don't know how vicious those wealthy and powerful families are in their backyards and how they fight for favor and power. Mom doesn't want you to live like this in the future. It's a day when people are plotting against you." Mrs. Wen said a little bitterly.

Wen Die hugged Mrs. Wen and said, "Mom, my daughter knows!"

Mrs. Wen patted Wen Die on the back and said happily: "As long as you understand."

...

Xu Wenwu also heard from his father what happened in the past few days since he entered the examination room.

Knowing the injustice his mother and sister had suffered, his eyes darkened.

"Dad, do you know the purpose of this prefect Wen's approach to our home?"

Uncle Xu said: "There shouldn't be any purpose, maybe he just wants to make friends! It may also be because of the owner of the token, but he does not seem to be a gloomy person, and he can talk to your grandfather very well."

Xu Wenwu fell into deep thought.

In the afternoon, the old man and several other members of the Xu family stood at the door of Juxiang Pavilion to greet Magistrate Wen.

A carriage drove slowly and stopped at the entrance of Juxiang Pavilion.

"Sir, Juxiang Pavilion has arrived." said the horseman driving the carriage.

Magistrate Wen opened the door curtain and got out of the carriage.

Wen Yuan also jumped down from the carriage, reached into the carriage, and helped Mrs. Wen down, followed by Wen Die.

The old man stepped forward quickly and said, "Master Wen, you are here. This should be Mrs. Wen, right?"

Magistrate Wen smiled and said: "It's my wife. Please forgive me, sir. My wife really likes the fruit wine that the old man sent me, so I came here today to express my gratitude."

The old man said: "No matter where you are, as long as Madam likes it."

Mrs. Wen smiled and nodded.The old man said: "The box is ready. Let's go in, sit down and chat slowly."

Wen Die saw Xu Wenwu behind the old man at a glance, glanced at Xu Wenwu with a pair of shy eyes, and then lowered his head with a red face.

Mrs. Wen also noticed her daughter's appearance, looking at Xu Wenwu from head to toe.

Xu Wenwu also noticed Mrs. Wen's eyes and felt a little strange in his heart, but he still kept a calm expression.

Mrs. Wen nodded secretly in her heart. This young man indeed looked talented and calm.

Soon, the group went up to the second floor, entered the box and sat down.

Magistrate Wen asked: "Is the old man going to leave so soon? Why don't you stay for a few more days?"

The old man said: "There are still people at home waiting for us! They will also worry as time goes by."

Magistrate Wen said with a pity look on his face: "I thought I could often drink and chat with the old man in the future! It seems I'm afraid that won't be possible!"

The old man said: "There will be many opportunities in the future. Huamen Town is only a day's journey from Qingyun City. When you can come to our Xujia Village as a guest in your spare time, I will definitely sweep your bed and welcome you."

Magistrate Wen laughed loudly and said: "I am sure!" Then he looked at Xu Wenwu and said: "I guess this is Mr. Xu who took the exam this time, right? He is indeed a talented person!"

The old man said: "Master Wen is so complimentary. Wen Wu has not come to pay homage to Master Wen and Mrs. Wen."

Xu Wenwu stood up immediately, made swords with his hands, and said: "Wenwu has met Mr. Wen and Mrs. Wen."

Mr. Wen held up a hand with both hands and said: "My dear nephew, you don't have to be polite. My son Wen Yuan has praised you very much. Now that I see you, it turns out that what you said is true."

Xu Wenwu said politely: "My lord, this is a false compliment. I have met Mr. Wenyuan several times, and the young man's demeanor makes him ashamed."

Wen Yuan said with a smile: "Young Master Xu, you don't have to be modest. When it comes to talent and learning, Wen Yuan thinks he's not good enough to impress, and he has already wanted to make friends with you. But now we have this opportunity. If Young Master Xu doesn't dislike it, can you deny me as your friend?"

Xu Wenwu said: "Young Master Wen has promoted me. It is my great fortune to be able to get to know Mr. Wen."

Wen Yuan smiled and said, "How cool! From now on, you and I will treat each other as brothers, how about that?"

Xu Wenwu said: "It's an honor."

"Haha!" Magistrate Wen laughed loudly from the side, and then said: "Wen Wu, just call me uncle from now on."

Xu Wenwu didn't hesitate, he cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Wen, Aunt Wen."

The more Mrs. Wen saw it, the more she liked it. Mr. Xu was indeed a good man, and his daughter had really good taste. So she smiled and said, "How about I call you Wenwu from now on?"

Xu Wenwu said: "It's a blessing for the younger generation."

"This lady must be your mother, right?" Mrs. Wen asked.

Mrs. Zhang quickly said: "Mrs. Wen, Wenwu is my son. I didn't expect that Mrs. Wen, who looks so young, is already the mother of two children."

Which woman doesn't like to be praised for her youth, and Mrs. Wen is certainly no exception, so she smiled and said: "How can Mrs. Xu say it is so good? I see that you are also very young, and your skin is so fair."

The two women would compliment me and I would compliment you, and they soon became familiar with each other.

"Mrs. Wen, I really envy you for having such a beautiful and generous daughter as Die'er. It's a pity that I am not so lucky." Mrs. Zhang said.

Wen Die was also a little embarrassed by Mrs. Zhang's praise, and her face had been red since the beating.

"Mrs. Xu, you can't say that. This son has the benefit of being a son. If he marries a virtuous daughter-in-law in the future, he will be no different than a daughter." Mrs. Wen said with a smile.

"Yes, yes! What Mrs. Wen said makes sense, Wen Wu, come here."

Xu Wenwu was still talking with his grandfather and Magistrate Wen, and when he heard his mother's shout, he walked towards this side.
