Lady Gu 10,000 Years

On the way home, Yu Wan, her brother, and Bai Tang were in one carriage. My uncle and son were in another car. The three remaining carriages pulling New Year items followed steadily behind.
When they left Bai Manor, it snowed lightly. The carriage moved slowly, leaving a crackling sound in the snow.
Little Bruiser was tired of playing. As he boarded the carriage, he fell asleep in Yu Wan's arms.
Along the way, everyone was very quiet.
When they arrived at White Jade Restaurant, it was already midnight. The entire city had been sound asleep, and the doors of White Jade Restaurant were tightly shut.
“Do you want me to call for help?” Yu Feng jumped up from the carriage and asked through the curtains.
Bai Tang's expression had returned to normal and he replied nonchalantly.
Yu Feng quickly knocked on the door of the White Jade Restaurant.
The old man who opened the door was the escort that the late mistress had brought from her maiden house. After the late mistress died, he and his wife served Bai Tang. The two elders were living in White Jade Restaurant right now, but they did not interfere much with the restaurant business and were more responsible for Bai Tang's daily life.
“This Miss.” Seeing Bai Tang coming out of the carriage, his uncle was not too surprised. He held onto the lamp and greeted Bai Tang in.
“Wait.” Yu Wan lowered the congratulatory gift she had chosen earlier. “It's not something valuable. I hope Miss Bai doesn't mind.”
Bai Tang looked at Yu Wan expressionlessly. He did not ask why he gave it, nor did he refuse.
Yu Wan did not mind her pouting face. He's still a kid. After being persecuted, he would be in a bad mood for a while.
Yu Wan smiled and said, “I'll bring it for you.”
“Ya.” This time, he made a sound.
“Let me do it.” Uncle went to help Yu Wan.
“Let me do it, let me do it!” Yu Feng took a step forward and picked up most of the items. There were only two boxes of snacks left and he let Yu Wan deliver them.
Uncle woke up his wife, and the two elders went to the kitchen to boil water for Bai Tang and made dinner.
Yu Feng and Yu Wan followed Bai Tang into the backyard. The lights in the room were already lit by the old man. Yu Feng walked towards the room with his head lowered. He walked faster than Yu Wan and Bai Tang.
“Aiya.” Yu Wan thought of something and was about to call Yu Feng when Yu Feng had already rushed inside the house carrying a few large bags.
After a while, Yu Feng came out with a red face.
“I, I don't see anything!” When he passed by Bai Tang, he said indistinctly. After saying that, he straightened his neck and ran out of the White Jade Restaurant.
Bai Tang was so busy that he did not hear what Yu Feng said at all, nor did he realize his panic. Before crossing the doorway, he stopped in his tracks. He seemed to mutter and explain, “My father used to be nothing like this. When I was young, he treated me very well.”
“I understand.” Yuwan nodded. “This is your stuff.”
Bai Tang took out two boxes of snacks.
Yu Wan said goodbye and turned around to walk towards the door.
“Thank you.” Bai Tang suddenly said. It was unknown why he was grateful to Yu Wan.
Yu Wan turned around and smiled. “Sama-sama.”
…
Bai Tang did not explain what happened to him, and the Yu family wisely did not ask. However, not asking does not mean they will not guess. Most likely Madam Bai suffered at Bai Tang's hands and turned to complain to Old Master Bai. Old Master Bai scolded Bai Tang and said that he shouldn't humiliate his stepmother because of some outsiders. How could Miss Bai swallow such a grievance with a burning fury?
“Nona Bai is a pathetic person.” On the way back, Yu Feng sighed.
Yu Song rolled his eyes towards his brother. “He's pathetic? He did not have to worry about food or clothes. The Bai family had so much money that he would not be able to spend it all his life! If he's pathetic, then what are we? You yourself will have no food to eat, yet you truly pity a young miss! Brother, are you stupid ?!
Yu Feng's face turned red.
Yu Wan's lips curled up.
…
Put aside the misunderstanding caused by Mrs. Bai, this trip to Bai Manor is quite fruitful.
Their boiled food gets unanimous praise from the guests. Many people asked Bai Manor where they hired the chef. When they heard that it was not Bai Manor or White Jade Restaurant, someone immediately expressed his desire to invite the Yu Family to their own residence.
Yu Wan and his uncle refused the goodwill of the guests, and the customer changed to order. Just yesterday, they received orders from the three big families. It was not that Yu Wan was worried that she would not be able to handle it, but there would be more.
The above was what they obtained, and there was what Little Bruiser had obtained.
Little Bruiser got a lot of money.
Family, including the mother. Jiang, who was sickly, counted the items all morning before finally finished counting the three carriages. That's not money. It's all high-end blush, silk, rare animal skins, antique paintings, and some local specialties.
They could sell these silks and satins in fabric stores because they could not wear them. Animal skin can be worn under a cotton shirt that is windproof and warm.
As for the bottle and the strange painting …
“This bottle is big. It is perfect for storing pickled vegetables.
An antique jar from the previous dynasty was brought by his aunt to marinate vegetables.
“Tong is rather small, but can be used to keep fish.”
The translucent glass bed that was a Western Region tribute was taken by Yu Song to raise fish seedlings.
A glowing cup is taken to feed the chicken.
A dynasty bronze fish sink (shaped like a sink) is used to soak the feet.
“There is a hole in the wall. This is an old draft.
Authentic paintings of the First Court Craftsman are affixed to the walls of the kitchen soil…
…
On the other hand, Mommy. Yan could not bear the humiliation. He only woke up three days later after he fainted on the spot. All the guests of the day watched the Yan Family “disgraced”. As the saying goes, good things do not leave the house, but bad things spread like wildfire. For a moment, the news of Yan Ruyu losing support before she got married spread like wildfire in the Capital. When Madam Yan heard it, she almost fainted again.
Yan Ruyu sat beside the bed with a bowl of ginseng soup. “Bu, take care of your body.”
How could Madam Yan take care of herself? Their Yan family was burdened with the murder of the royal heir, and it was all thanks to the marriage with Young Master Yan so that they could clear their names. If Young Master Yan were to refuse this marriage, wouldn't their Yan Family have to return to prison?
“Yu’er ..” Mistress Yan stopped Yan Ruyu from giving her ginseng soup. He looked straight at her and said, “Quick and think of a way. You cannot let Young Master Yan cancel this wedding!”
“He won't cancel it.” Yan Ruyu lowered her head and stirred the ginseng soup with a spoon. “I gave birth to her children. Did you forget?”
Lady Yan muttered, “Kids. You still have Yan Jiuchao's children! A mother's status depends on her child. He will surely acknowledge you and your children!
Yan Ruyu scooped up a spoonful of ginseng soup and gave it to Ny. Yan. “Bu, don't worry. I've made arrangements. Children will arrive in the Capital at the longest in two days.”
