Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 56

   Chapter 56 By the way

  Wen Yun died.

   The suppuration of the wound and the continuous high fever made this young man who was addicted to gambling die in a dilapidated and cold room.

  Wen Ping lay down on his son's body, weeping bitterly.

   Such a situation made Wen Feng feel uncomfortable, but he could not bear to leave.

   When Wen Ping was tired from crying, Wen Feng took out a few pieces of silver from his purse and handed it over: "Wen is in charge of my condolences, you have to cheer up and deal with the funeral."

  Wen Ping looked at the silver in Wen Feng's hand and burst into tears: "If Yun'er can get a doctor earlier, Yun'er won't die..."

   Wen Feng smelled the faint smell in the house, but didn't say a word.

   With such a smell, it can be seen that Wen Yun's wound is very purulent, and even if he asks a doctor earlier, it may not be much better.

   Of course, these words cannot be said to a father who has just lost his son.

   "My condolences." Wen Feng turned around and took two steps, thought for a while and then stopped, "What is Wen's plan for the future?"

   "Plans?" Wen Ping's distraught face revealed a miserable smile, "My son is dead, what plans can I have as a penniless wretch, it's just a matter of life."

   "My father and I are going to live in the capital for a long time, and we need someone who can help with the housework. If Steward Wen is willing, he can come to me when he is done with Linglang's affairs."

  Wen Ping looked at Wen Feng unexpectedly, obviously not expecting to get such an invitation.

  Wen Feng smiled embarrassedly: "It's just that I can't compare with the tenth uncle's mansion—"

  Wen Ping hurriedly interrupted Wen Feng's words: "The villain is willing!"

   Having gone through the hardships of these days, he knows too well how hard it is to have no roots and no foundation.

   Wen Feng left and returned home, waiting for him was a table of wine and vegetables.

   "Feng'er, tell your father what the Qionglin Banquet is like." Wen Rusheng's face was red, completely different from Wen Ping.

  Wen Feng sat down and had a headache facing the wine that Wen Rusheng handed over: Dad, I drank a lot at the Qionglin Banquet, and I should be drunk again. "

   "Then tell me what the Qionglin banquet is like, can you meet the emperor? Do you eat with a golden bowl?"

   "I see. Only Zhuang Yuanlang uses the golden bowl, others don't..." Satisfying his father's curiosity, Wen Feng brought up the matter of Wen Ping.

  Wen Rusheng put his chopsticks on top of the plate to hold the roasted meat: "Want Wen Ping to come to work at our house?"

   "Wen Guanshi didn't cover up for the tenth uncle at the beginning, and he was also upright. Now he is in a difficult situation, and his son thinks that he can help."

   Hearing what his son said, Wen Rusheng nodded: "Since you think so, let him come."

   happened to be chatting with Steward Wen about Ah Hao being a monster, and other people didn't understand his mood.

   Lin Hao didn't know that Wen Ping's fortunes had changed in a short period of time, so he walked home with the orb.

   "Girl, there is a disciple who has been following you all the time." Baozhu walked beside Lin Hao and suddenly reminded in a low voice.

  Lin Hao looked back.

   The young man who walked behind had a palace flower on his head, walking calmly, without the appearance of a stalker at all.

  Lin Hao recognized the boy.

   is the same class that was with Wen Feng that day. If you guessed correctly, it should be the new class champion who is famous all over the world.

   "Don't be suspicious." He whispered to Baozhu, and Lin Hao quickened his pace.

  It's getting darker and darker, it's time to go home earlier.

  Yang Zhe couldn't help but smile when he saw the girl walking in front suddenly quicken her pace.

   You seem to be on guard?

   "Good."

  Lin looks sideways.

  Cheng Shu came over with disapproval on his face: "Why did you come home so late?"

   "I went to see the champion parade." Lin Hao didn't expect to meet Cheng Shu, so he casually gave a reason.

   She said the same thing to her mother when she went out today.

  Cheng Shu looked past Lin Hao and landed on Yang Zhe, who was approaching gradually. He was shocked: "Ah Hao, you went to see the champion parade and brought the champion back?"

   Is this still possible?

   "What did Big Brother say?" Lin Hao's mouth twitched.

   While speaking, Yang Zhe has come to the front.

  Cheng Shu returned to his serious appearance, clasped his fists and said hello: "Yang Zhuangyuan."

  Yang Zhe stopped: "Xiongtai is—"

  Cheng Shu patted his armor: "My surname is Cheng, I am on duty in the imperial city, and today I am fortunate to see the style of the champion."

   "It turned out to be General Cheng Xiao, it's a pleasure to meet."

   "Where is Zhuangyuan Yang going?"

   "I left the Qionglin banquet, and I am returning to my residence." Yang Zhe seemed to think this question was strange, and Yang Zhe's expression was a little subtle.

   "Then don't delay the return of Yang Zhuangyuan." Cheng Shu smirked, and hurriedly dragged Lin Hao into the general's mansion.

   "I thought you brought Zhuang Yuanlang home."

  Lin is so helpless: "Brother, what are you thinking?"

   "Isn't it a coincidence that the champion has been walking behind you." Cheng Shu was quite talkative, "Ah, you don't know how beautiful Yang Zhuangyuan is today, and many ministers are stalking and asking about his situation."

  Lin Hao is not very interested in this topic: "Brother, I went back to rest, I'm tired after a day out."

   Back at Luoyingju, Lin Hao lay down on the bed after washing up, feeling relaxed.

   As long as the Chen family retires smoothly, Chen Yi will really jump out of the fire pit.

   The next morning, Lin Hao sent Baozhu out to inquire.

   As it was almost noon, Baozhu brought back good news.

   "Huianbo and Mrs. Huaianbo went to Pingjiahou Mansion together and retired their marriage."

   When the family got together for dinner, Mrs. Lin also talked about it.

   "I don't know if Mrs. Huai Amber was intentional or unintentional. She found such a marriage for her stepdaughter. Fortunately, Huai Amber still loves her daughter and didn't push her into the fire pit."

  The old lady gave Lin Shi a look and said lightly: "So be a mother and live well, you can't let your children go with others to call your mother."

  Lin agreed, and ate one more steamed bun.

  The matter of the Prince of Pingjiahou came to the ears of the officials, and he was soon accused to the emperor.

   Emperor Tai'an was annoyed when he heard it.

   Why is this kind of **** happening lately?

  The irritable emperor called Ping Jiahou into the palace and scolded him, and fined him a year for a small matter.

  Ping Jiahou returned to the mansion, and went to his son's place with a whip.

   Mrs. Pingjiahou hurried to get the news. She didn't stop her from speaking, and even received a few whips.

  Pingjia Hou Shizi became a big ugly and was whipped again, and he fell ill all of a sudden.

   Mrs. Pingjiahou cried while watching her son's miserable condition. She had a big fight with Pingjiahou and fell ill.

  Because the emperor had only reprimanded Pingjiahou, few people came to visit the Pingjiahou mansion, which used to be lively, and most of them sent their servants to send gifts.

   For a time, the splendid Hou Mansion had a sign of decay.

   Just when the scandal of the Pingjiahou Mansion was hotly discussed in the capital, a young man secretly came to visit the prince of Pingjiahou.

  Pingjia Hou Shizi's face was gray and defeated, lying on the bed and looking at the young man with a bleak smile: "Wenyuan, why are you here?"

   The young man frowned tightly: "Jin Cai, why are you so ill?"

  Pingjia Hou Shizi closed his eyes: "I am now ruined, what else can I do."
