Chapter 148
Sun Wuji threw his schoolbag onto the housekeeper Sun, walked into the hall and sat down. The maid brought him a cup of tea. He took two sips and felt that this was not right. He couldn't let Jia Qingwu stay at her parents' home. Even if she went crazy, she had to go crazy at home. That way, others would say that he was a man of great loyalty and loyalty, and he would never abandon his wife even though she was crazy. "Go and bring the lady back."
I go? I'm just a housekeeper, and those people in the Jia family don't have a good face towards the people in the Sun family. Housekeeper Sun smiled hesitantly, "Master, do you want to go in person?"
"Go when I tell you to!" Sun Wujiu's face changed and he said angrily, "Who are you? How dare you question me?"
"I dare not!" Butler Sun knelt down in fear, cold sweat on his forehead.
Sun Wujiu glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Get lost."
"Yes, yes," Butler Sun agreed repeatedly, backing out of the front hall. He bumped into Concubine Qu, who was walking gracefully towards him. He bowed his head and saluted, not caring what Concubine Qu was about to say, and hurried to the stables.
"You're in such a hurry to reincarnate." Aunt Qu cursed, and looked at Sun Wujiu who was drinking tea in the hall with a charming smile, "Master, you're back."
"Why are you here?" Sun Wujiu blurted out, but his expression was much more relaxed. "Where's Wanqiu?"
"As soon as he came back, he went straight to the study to do his homework." In fact, he was playing with crickets in the yard. She said a few words and Sun Wanqiu got angry. It happened that the master came back and she didn't have time to discipline him. "Wanqiu has been studying hard since he was young. It's all because of the good teaching of the master."
Sun Wujiu showed a satisfied look, "I am Sun Wujiu's son, of course I work hard."
"Master, I've made a sweet soup with lotus seeds and lilies. Please try it." The maid behind Qu Pingping took out the sweet soup from the food box and handed it to her. She glanced back, and the maid immediately understood and walked away to guard the door.
"Leave it there." Sun Wujiu showed no interest, his mind still preoccupied with the Jia family. He should have gone to pick it up personally, both emotionally and logically, but the Jia family had been unkind to him. If it weren't for the Jia family's financial resources and connections, he wouldn't have put up with this.
Qu Pingping put it down obediently. Noticing Sun Wujiu's absent-mindedness, she smiled and walked behind him. Her delicate hands touched Sun Wujiu's shoulders, kneading them with a moderate force, not like a massage, but more like flirting. She softened her voice, "Master, is there something bothering you?"
"Jia Qingwu is back." Sun Wujiu was so distracted by her that he narrowed his eyes and glanced over, pulling her to sit on his lap. "Why? You want it in broad daylight?"
Qu Pingping blushed softly and poked his shoulder with her finger, "Master, what are you talking about?" She was starting to get annoyed. Why hadn't that crazy woman died yet? The last time she saw her, she looked like she was dying, but she was still alive. "My sister is in Beiyuan?"
Sun Wujiu was just getting annoyed by this matter, and immediately lost interest. He pushed the person in his arms away and said, "At the Jia family."
Qu Pingping cried out softly, nearly being pushed to the ground. She gritted her teeth secretly, then turned around with a smile on her face. Thinking back to when she had just come, she had quietly flirted with Sun Wujiu. "Just now, I saw Butler Sun in such a hurry that he left without even saying hello to me. Did he go to pick up my sister?"
Sun Wuji nodded, but in his heart he was thinking about Butler Sun. He had just talked back to him and even ignored his master. He was becoming more and more unreasonable. The servants did not act like servants. Jia Qingwu was really scheming. After all these years, the servants in the family were still loyal to her.
The shop owners didn't even acknowledge her and couldn't even get any money out of the account! They would divorce her sooner or later!
Qu Pingping glanced at Sun Wujiu's expression and asked, "Then we need to make some preparations to welcome Sister back?"
Speaking of this, Sun Wujiu became even more angry. "What are you preparing for? I don't think she wants to come back at all! Isn't it just a child? Just a daughter. She's still crazy after more than ten years! It's totally unreasonable!"
Qu Pingping smiled and gently urged him not to be angry. In her heart, she was thinking about how to further provoke Jia Qingwu, or even if it was best to just kill her.
This housekeeper, Sun, had already arrived at the Jia family's residence, and the two families were not close. The Sun family's house was personally selected by Mr. Jia, and it was close to the academy. Initially, it was to facilitate Sun Wujiu's study there. Later, Sun Wujiu passed the imperial examination and failed the imperial examination. He was invited to the Huizhou Academy to be a teacher. This did not affect his imperial examinations. When the exam came, the academy gave him an early leave.
I don’t know how many times I have taken the exam so far, but there is no response at all.
The Jia family's doorman's smile fell as he saw the Sun family. "What's the matter? The masters are out. They're not home."
Butler Sun had seen this kind of attitude many times before; it was within his expectations. He stepped forward with a bow and said, "Please inform them that my master has sent me to take his wife home."
"The lady is in the temple, you can go there to pick her up." The doorman said without blinking.
Butler Sun gave a bitter laugh, "Young man, why bother lying to me? I know the Madam is here."
"The lady is not here." The doorman turned around and closed the door.
Butler Sun sighed and had no choice but to turn back.
The doorman watched him get on the carriage and go back, then trotted off to report to the steward Jia.
Old Master Jia soon found out about this. His face showed no emotion, he just said, "I know."
Housekeeper Jia hesitated for a moment, "Old Master, is this really okay? Will Sun Wujiu bear a grudge?"
"Do you think if we coax him, he'll forget his grudge?" Old Master Jia sneered. "They say reading can enlighten you, but I think some people read in vain."
Butler Jia didn't understand, but Mr. Jia didn't want to say more to him, so he waved his hand and asked him to leave.
If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, Mr. Jia wouldn't have believed it. The man he supported without regard for money actually felt that he was insulting him by paying him, and even felt that he married his daughter to him to monitor him.
He had lived for most of his life and still couldn't understand how someone could be so narrow-minded and pass the imperial examination.
Not to mention that his respect for scholars completely collapsed that day, but he also completely gave up on Sun Wujiu.
Fortunately, such a person did not pass the imperial examination. If he became an official, he would probably bring disaster to the people.
In this dynasty, successful candidates could buy an official position with money. He thought it would be better to buy an official position directly instead of wasting time. Wouldn't the final result be the same?
But Sun Wuji ignored the etiquette and cursed Jia Sansi, who had come to deliver the message, saying that he was insulting civility and the sacred imperial examination system.
Old Master Jia and Jia San racked their brains, but couldn't figure out why he was so angry. In the end, they just attributed it to the fact that scholars valued their reputation, and after all, buying an official position was not a good idea.
But why is it that something that the imperial court has allowed is not allowed?
Afterwards, Jia Sansi brought gifts to Sun Wujiu's house to apologize. But Sun Wujiu actually cursed the Jia family with his classmates, saying they were full of money and only knew how to buy official positions. He said that they had married their daughter off because of his status as a scholar, and that Jia Qingwu only cared about watching him study, and that she was sent by the Jia family to monitor him.
They also said Jia Qingwu had been ill before she got married, otherwise why would she go mad after losing a child? She must have been mad since childhood, and she hid it well on weekdays. But when something happened, she couldn't hide it anymore.
Old Master Jia was glad that he was the one who heard it. If it were anyone else in the Jia family, they would have rushed in and beaten Sun Wujiu severely on the spot.
He is blind and has ruined his daughter's life.
