Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 283 A Empress Comes to the House (3 more)
Song Wei received an order to escort Concubine Duan to the Rehe Palace.

The capital is about [-] miles away from the Rehe Palace, and with Concubine Duan's physique 'not suitable for traveling', it would take several days to stop and go.

On the eve of departure, Wen Wan carefully packed Song Wei and saluted.

It was already the twelfth lunar month, and the weather was very cold. In addition to the thickened inner jacket, outer pants and boots, Wen Wan put in two pairs of knee pads that she made herself a few days ago.

Guessing that the packing was almost done, Wen Wan tied the burden, turned around and saw the man sitting under the lamp in a daze, Wen Wan coughed softly, and asked him, "Sir, what are you thinking?"

In my impression, Song Wei was rarely in a daze in front of her.

Song Wei came back to his senses and looked at her with hesitation.

Wen Wan walked over to sit next to him, her tone softened a bit, "Is the concubine Duan's illness particularly serious? Sir, if you follow along like this, will you be infected?"

There are many female students who love to gossip in the Hongwen Museum. Wen Wan heard that the concubine Duan was so serious that she was ordered to be quarantined to the Rehe Palace [-] miles away.

Wen Wan immediately realized that her family husband had received another hard job, just like the coal mine case last time, too many people didn't want to offend the Su family, so it finally fell on the head of Song Wei, a Hanlin official from Ningzhou.

It was the same this time, Concubine Duan was suffering from a serious disease, some people were afraid of contagion, more afraid of accidents, so they pushed it back and forth, and finally pushed it to her husband.

The more Wen Wan thought about it, the more irritable she became, "Sister-in-law, why don't I go to ask for leave early tomorrow, and follow you in disguise like last time, okay?"

Concubine Duan's illness has been spread so badly, who knows if Song Wei will be infected.

Wen Wan didn't want to send away her lively husband-in-law, and welcome a sick man in after a while.

Song Wei did not agree, "You just wait for me at home."

"What about my husband?" Wen Wan was still worried, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, I don't want you to have any trouble at this juncture."

"Nothing will happen." Song Wei looked into her eyes with tenderness, and after a long pause, he said again: "It's just that when I come back, our family is going to add a long-term distinguished guest."

-

Wen Wan thought about it all night, but she didn't understand Song Wei's last sentence. Seeing that he was fast asleep, she couldn't ask any more questions. She sent him out early the next morning and came back to discuss with her mother-in-law, saying that Sanlang As I said, there will be some distinguished guests at home in a few days, and the wing room will have to be redecorated, and all the things in it will have to be replaced with new ones.

When Mrs. Song heard this, she gasped, "How much will it cost?"

She shook her head with a gentle smile, "I don't know either, but since Saburo has explained it like this, he must have his own intentions, we must not be vague, otherwise it will fail, and his big event may be delayed."

Mrs. Song was reluctant to spend money, but she didn't want to go against her son's will, so she had to cut the meat with pain, and evacuated a certain room in the west wing, from the bed to the cabinet, to the bedding curtains, as well as the tables, chairs and benches inside, and replaced them with new ones.

Because Song Wei ordered that low-grade materials should not be used, when buying, I asked the knowledgeable old man Song to see that they were all above-average wood.

Wen Wan goes to the Hongwen Museum during the day, and can only help when she returns home at night.

Father Song and Mrs. Song took Mama Cao and Mama Jin to work for several days before finally tidying up the room thoroughly.

In the evening, Mrs. Song sat cross-legged on the kang and counted, good guy, just one room was decorated with nearly a thousand taels of silver, which was more expensive than this whole set of yards. She was so painful that she didn't swallow her dinner.

I didn't see my mother-in-law at the dinner table, so Wen Wan went to the North Room to persuade her personally. Mrs. Song was lying on her side on the bed, the anger in her heart hadn't passed, and she kept muttering, "What kind of guest are you coming to our house for?" It's fine if you don't give gifts, but let me decorate the room with heart and soul, is this a guest? Is it the ancestor of the Song family?"

Wen Wan was amused by her mother-in-law, "Mother, my husband has always had his own rules and regulations, we just follow it, 1000 taels of silver is a little too much, but I heard what he said, it should be the same as sending Duanfei to the Jehol Palace this time." I'm afraid it's not as simple as we thought, so don't complain, what's the matter, can't we wait for the husband to bring him back first?"

After being persuaded by her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Song finally took it easy. Mother Jin brought the food for the third time, but she didn't say no, she let it be placed on the table, and then had a good meal.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the Hongwen Museum and the Guozijian are on holiday.

Instead of going to school in the cold wind every day, Wen Wan has more time to spend with her son.

Since Jinbao chased the little girl of the Su family for a certain distance that day, he has become more and more daring to walk alone, except for being afraid of being slippery outside, Wen Wan must always pay attention to it, and when staying in the house, Wen Wan let him go alone come and go.

The little guy is usually very clingy to his father, and he hasn't seen him for several days. Every time he wakes up, he pokes his head and looks out the door, but he can't always see Song Wei.

Whenever this happened, he would stumble back and grab Wen Wan's sleeves, shouting constantly, "Daddy, Daddy..."

"Daddy has something to go out, and he will come back tomorrow to accompany Jinbao." Wen Wan said while stroking his little head.

Originally, children are very forgetful, and Wen Wan fooled him like this a few days ago, every time she said that his father would come back tomorrow, but the little guy forgot the next day.

Wen Wan never tires of "deceiving" her son, but she didn't expect to hit a tree one day.

She just lied that Song Wei would come back tomorrow, and the little guy glared at her angrily, "Mother is lying!"

He still couldn't speak clearly, but that small appearance seemed to be expressing his dissatisfaction with being cheated.

Wen Wan: "..."

It's only five months away from turning two years old. Is your memory so good?

Wen Wan found it unbelievable, and asked Song Yuanbao afterwards, only to see from the hesitant response of the other party that this kid taught him. In fact, Jinbao himself didn't know what "deceiving" meant, but he just listened to his brother's guidance. I know that when I say it, I have to blushed and stare at his mother.

When Yuan Bao lowered his head and confessed his "crime", from the corner of his eyes, Wen Wan caught a glimpse of Jin Bao's unscrupulous little one who was chasing and kicking the Tao Xiang ball rolling on the ground. , quietly got up and continued kicking.

-

It took Song Wei more than ten days to send Concubine Duan to the Jehol Palace, and she was thirty years old when she arrived home.

Even in the capital, during the New Year's Eve, the Song family still kept many traditions of their hometown.

Early in the morning, Mrs. Song accompanied Mama Jin to buy live chickens and ducks. The fish and shrimp were delivered from Xie Tao's house next door.

Father Song was in charge of slaughtering chickens and ducks, and after they were ready, they sent them to the kitchen. The two mothers and Mrs. Song began to get busy.

Wen Wan took Song Yuanbao to paste blessing characters and couplets outside.

Song Wei is not here, Wen Wan spent money to buy this year's couplets from outside, she herself does not have such a good literary talent, besides, her handwriting is too delicate, not suitable for writing couplets.

At that moment, Wen Wan stepped on a high stool, just after she finished pasting the banner, she turned her head and saw a carriage parked not far away.

After a while, the curtain of the car was lifted, and a few people came down.

The leader is Song Wei, a man wearing a black gauze hat, a scarlet official uniform, and a leather belt around his waist.

When he was in office, he was extremely strict and cold to everyone.

Behind Song Wei, there are three girls, the one on both sides is more delicate, the one in the middle is beautiful and beautiful, with slender jade fingers, although she is dressed as a servant girl like the other two, her movements and movements reveal a nobleness that those two cannot match tolerance.

Apart from Ganniang, this is probably the second beautiful and elegant woman Wen Wan has ever seen.

Wen Wan has already guessed that these three are the "honored guests" that the Xianggong said.

In fact, when the room was decorated, it was already obvious that the guest was a woman.

It's just that Wen Wan didn't expect that there would be three of them.

Song Wei, who had never been close to other women, suddenly had so many people around her, Wen Wan felt a little depressed.

She got off the high stool, moved the stool aside, and stood there waiting for Song Wei to come over.

When he got close, Song Wei stopped in his tracks, his originally solemn eyebrows turned soft, and his eyes smiled, "Why don't you go in?"

Wen Wan didn't look at him, but glanced at the people behind him, "The distinguished guests you mentioned are they?"

Song Wei hummed, "Let's talk first."

Didn't know who the other party was, Wen Wan was not easy to say hello, she held the stool and took Yuan Bao to lead the way, and brought the three of them into her home.

Mrs. Song heard that the rumored distinguished guest was coming, she got down from the kang in a jiffy, intending to come to open her eyes to see what kind of distinguished guest it is, and how arrogant it is, when she arrived in the yard, she saw three women in pink standing behind Song Wei, I couldn't react for a while, "Sanlang, are they...?"

When he came in just now, Song Wei had already closed the door with his own hands, and there were only his own family members in the courtyard. Song Wei no longer shy away, and introduced the woman surrounded by two little maids to them, "This is the concubine Duan. .”

When Mrs. Song heard it suddenly, her knees softened and she knelt down.
