Chapter 384 The Young Master Wandering Around 3
Dengxuan Street is not the busiest street in Changjing City. It is just an ordinary street. There are not many shops on the street, and they are not so luxurious and magnificent. The customers of these shops are not the young masters or ladies of the nearby wealthy families.
, and more of them are servants who work as slaves in large courtyards and houses. Among them, the face of a housewife is the most popular among the lower-class people in the neighborhood.
Firstly, the owner of this shop, the chubby lady, does make noodles that are quite good, especially in line with the appetite of these people. Secondly, you will have a certain amount of luck in meeting noble people in this shop.
For example, the warriors and the man named Di came today.
The carriage stopped at the door of the shop, and Wukou and Wu got off the carriage, immediately attracting the customers who were eating noodles. Although these people were of low status, they still had good eyesight. After all, they were also people living in that circle.
, even if you don’t know both of them, at least you will know one of them.
Both of them were one of the new nobles of the imperial court, people with great potential. After the new emperor ascended the throne, they were immediately entrusted with important responsibilities. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that they would be important ministers of the imperial court in the future.
"Ah, aren't these Mr. Di and Captain Wu? No, now it's time to call them General Wu." Madam Le from the shop was making noodles in the shop while greeting the two Wu Kou. She seemed to be quite familiar with them.
"Two bowls of noodles, add more chili sauce." Wukou and the others did not choose to enter the house, but sat down at a table at the door.
"So tired."
"Don't worry, I know you don't eat hot sauce, so both bowls are mine. Although you have eaten, you really don't want one bowl." Wukou asked.
The man shook his head.
Not all wealthy people go to those high-end places. There are always some people who like such small street shops and don't mind eating the same thing as the people here.
The two of them can't say whether they like Wu Kou or not. It's mainly out of habit. They used to come here often when they were children. It's not far from Wu Mansion. At that time, Aunt Le was still a waiter here. Later, she married the boss here and became the boss's wife.
Got a couple of children.
Later, when I grew up, I had many things to do, and I wasn't at home much, so I didn't come here very often. Occasionally I remembered, so I came here to reminisce.
"Have you found out who attacked Lao Shen's two children?" While waiting for the interview, Wu Kou continued to ask about the previous incident.
"Then you really think I have all-knowing skills. I only found out about this a few days ago." The man gave Wu Kou a roll of his eyes.
"I heard that people from the Fang family came to see your father. Brother Di, are you going to be the son-in-law of the Fang family?" Wukou asked softly.
"Someone is indeed here."
"Is that the young lady from the Fang family who is getting married?"
"Third Miss."
"Oh, it's that shrewd bitch, Brother Di, you can't do that. If you marry her, you won't be able to live a happy life like me." Wukou said worriedly.
"I didn't agree, and my parents didn't dare to force it." The man got himself a cup of cheap tea from the shop.
"It's a pity that our Wu family doesn't have a woman worthy of you, Brother Di." Wu Kou sighed.
"There are times in life that must come, but there are times in life that don't force you to force them."
At this time, a little girl brought two bowls of noodles and greeted the two of them: "An An has met General Wu, Mr. Di."
"The little girl has grown so tall." Wukou looked at the little girl with a smile. Her round face was really cute.
The little girl is Aunt Le's daughter. She is only eleven or twelve years old this year. When Wukou first came to this store, she was just born.
The little girl said hello to Wu Kou and the others, blushed, and left quickly. M.
"Why are you so shy? Could it be that Brother Di, you are too charming?" Wu Kou moved the two bowls of noodles in front of him. He took a pair of chopsticks in each hand and stirred the noodles vigorously, mixing the spicy sauce and noodles inside.
It's mixed well.
"No matter how you look at it, you used your majestic and heroic appearance to make that little girl blush."
"Okay, okay, it's me, it's me." As he said that, Wukou poured the two bowls of noodles together, turning them into a full bowl, and started to squawk.
"By the way, the young lady from the Cheng family who loves to wield swords and guns is interested in you. No one from the Cheng family has ever looked for you...Father?" The man said, looking at his heroic eating style.
"Do you think it's possible? Even if the two of us really love each other, but..." Wu Kou glanced around, leaned his head close to the man and said, "But His Majesty will do nothing?"
"Then you can abandon your family identity, so..." the man said jokingly.
"If that's the case, what's the point? Besides, my sister's efforts will be in vain. My wife and my sister, of course I choose my sister's side. My sister is the only one, but my wife is not necessarily the same."
.....
The two of them wandered aimlessly in Changjing. The man surnamed Di asked his groom to go to Wufu to settle down first. In Changjing, they were already very familiar with each other. They knew about him in almost every corner, even the common people.
They could only go to the palace outside several times.
"Oh, Brother Di, you will have to stay in this bustling cage from now on, and you will no longer be able to witness this beautiful country with me." Wukou said with some regret as he looked at the streets with people coming and going.
"I've been working hard for so long, and I also want to enjoy the time when I can just talk. If I keep running like this with you, my legs will almost break."
"What do you mean by running with me? I just go wherever you tell me to go. In other words, I'm more like your guard." Wuko Nunu said.
"Hey, isn't Wei Shuheng from the Wei family over there? Your sister is here too." The man clasped his hands behind his back and looked at a man and woman in the distance of the street. There were several guards around them to separate the flow of people and create a quiet space.
Small world.
"He is not my sister. I only have one sister." Wukou also saw the two people. Thinking of what happened in the morning, Wukou felt a little unfamiliar. "Let's go, let's take a detour."
Wu Kou took the man and walked towards other streets.
"It seems that you are really troubled in this house."
"Isn't it? Brother Di, you are so smart, do you have a better way..."
Before Wu Kou finished speaking, the man said: "It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs."
"There is something wrong with your words. On a superficial level, do you really say that I am an upright official? On a deeper level, if I helped you handle the housework, doesn't it mean that I am not an upright official?"
"You are a good student of military craftsmanship. It seems that you will be able to prosper in the court in the future." The man praised.
"Where can I compare to the city of you literati? If you can't afford to have fun, you can't conspire on the battlefield, and at worst, you can just draw the knife. Isn't it possible here?"
"In two days there will be the end of the year court meeting, and you will see those people you don't like." The man turned his head and looked in one direction, where the palace is located.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. It's only a few times a year at most. After this time, they don't know when they will be able to appreciate my heroic appearance. It's not me who is in trouble." Wukou said indifferently.
...
At ten o'clock at noon, the two returned to the gate of Wu Mansion. At this time, they heard several carriages filled with things. The housekeeper of Wu Mansion was arranging people to move the things on the carriages. These were all the new year's goods in the mansion.
"Young Master, you are back." After the housekeeper and Wukou saw Wukou, they greeted the man next to Wukou: "I have met Master Di."
"Yeah." The man nodded.
"Old Guan, you can go about your business." Wu Kou said. The housekeeper's surname is Guan. For convenience and to avoid awkwardness, people in the house only call him housekeeper. He is also the big housekeeper in the house, big and small.
He is responsible for everything, and Wukou is basically the boss.
Walking in the corridor of Wu Mansion, Master Di said: "Although the housekeeper has outstanding abilities, he still lacks a backbone."
"What backbone? Isn't my backbone big enough?"
"You are not at home often. Find a hostess quickly, or be careful of your father occupying the magpie's nest."
"He dares? Even if he dares, he must have this ability. He won't have a chance." Wu Kou said disdainfully.
"He really doesn't have a chance, but some people don't think that your father is a pretty good bargaining chip in their eyes. No, more accurately, he is a puppet. It is estimated that your father doesn't even know, or knows that he thinks he can
Use them in reverse." After saying this, the man shook his head and said: "Too naive."
"It's better that your family doesn't have all these messy worries." Wu Kou said enviously.
"There is nothing to be envious of. Our Di family may become like your Wu family in the future. This is something that will inevitably appear with different status. The higher the status, the more chaotic it will be, and the chaos will be terrifying." The second young master said solemnly.
said.
"Hey, Pei Ling, where are you going?" Wu Kou suddenly discovered that the maid named Pei Ling was walking by on the other side of the corridor. Wu Kou hurriedly called him out. As for what Master Di said before
Only he knows whether he heard it or not.
"It's the young master. This servant is going to the housekeeper to get the medicine for the queen." Pei Ling said loudly from the other side.
Wu Kou said "Oh" and asked: "Is my sister awake?"
"I'm awake. I'm talking to Mr. Chen in the yard now. Young master, if nothing happens, I have to go get some medicine and make soup."
"Go ahead, go ahead." Wukou waved his hand.
"She is sick? Why didn't you tell me?" Master Di looked at Wu Kou.
"I can't say I'm sick, so I didn't tell you."
"Is the Mr. Chen she is talking about Chen Mo? Was it your sister who recruited him here?" Master Di asked again,
"Yes and no." Wu Kou could only say this. When he went to Mount Rokusu, in addition to fulfilling his wish, he also took the opportunity to see if he could win the new star of the sword society. Later, the result became like this.
"Why are you talking so ambiguously?" Master Di looked at him with some displeasure.
"There's no way, but that's the fact."
"What is the fact? Please explain it clearly to me."
"Okay, okay." Wu Kou leaned into his ear and whispered softly. "..."
"Ah!? Seriously?" Master Di looked at Wu Kou in surprise.
"Look what you said, how could I make fun of my sister? Go ahead and go to my sister's house. If you have any doubts, you will know after you go there. I can't explain a sentence or two clearly."
