After everyone left, there were only the mother and child left in the room, so Madam Hou put down her cold face and slowly asked, “How is Zhe Chun?”
Madam Hou used to call Shen Yuan, Zhe Chun.
Hearing that, Wei Zan said, “He has dried his clothes and went to change in his courtyard. I wanted to send him back, but he disliked me.”
Madam Hou gave him a look, but said slowly: “You did a good job today, now I can count on you to take care of Zhe Chun.”
He was used to fighting with Shen Yuan even in front of his mother, so now he was somehow embarrassed.
She coughed and said, “Mother, is there any news about the job uncle asked for Father to help?”
Madam Hou was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and sighed.
“Not yet. Your uncle is quite impetuous and wants to stay in the capital to achieve a remarkable feat. But if his big dream involved the palace…”
The following words, she didn’t say, but Wei Zan knew it in his heart.
The Hou’s mansion was the empress’s relative, and he, the little lord, was still the emperor’s nephew.
On the other hand, the Elder Uncle was not born to the same mother as Empress Hou Ye, so he didn’t care about the Empress’s situation.
And on the other hand, the elder uncle’s family did everything they could do to gain benefits, but they didn’t want to get involved when the trouble came because of their greed.
It was just that it was hard for a mother to say these words directly to her son.
Wei Zan moved his fingertips, thought a lot in his mind, and slowly said, “Then let father delay, it’s not our family who is in a hurry.”
His words were quite shrewd, and Madam Hou looked at him a little more.
She looked at his eyes and said, “Why do you still care about these small things? You really let a stick beat sense into you?”
Hearing that, Wei Zan smiled and said, “Who knows.”
Earlier his life motto was to serve the country and make meritorious service, to be a hero.
Only this time, he didn’t come here to do meritorious deeds.
He just wants to keep these people who only lived in his memory well.
Madam Hou hurriedly arranged for someone to go and see Shen Yuan, then told the maid, “Ginseng soup is simmering in the side kitchen. You can heat some dim sum and stew a bowl of meat porridge, and send it to Zhe Chun. See if he is well…”
“If there is any discomfort, please ask the doctor to come and take a look first, to save you from decocting the medicine in the dark.”
Wei Zan propped his chin, listening slowly to his mother ordering the maid.
But when the maid was about to leave with the food box, he smiled and stretched out his hand and said, “Give it to me.”
Everyone in the courtyard had heard that Little Master and Master Shen were at odds, so when the maid heard that, she became cautious.
The maid was scared, “Second Master, let’s just…”
“Give it to him…” Madam Hou glanced at her son and slowly smiled, “It’s rare for him to respect his Brother Shen. Let him go, he wants to ask for credit.”
Brother Shen.
Wei Zan thought to himself, he finally knew where his special speaking ability came from.
Adding up the two lifetimes, it was the first time Wei Zan came to Shen Yuan’s courtyard.
When he was young, they had a bad relationship.
He was a proud and arrogant little master, and he didn’t like Shen Yuan’s indifference.
So he didn’t even want to touch the soil in Shen Yuan’s yard.
Shen Yuan also moved out early before becoming the high school champion, and after the two had gone through hardships and let go of their previous suspicions, Shen Yuan had already become Master Shen and had his own mansion, and the huge Hou mansion was left alone.
When Wei Zan entered, Shen Yuan was repairing the water-soaked pages of the book.
So Wei Zan first asked to spread out everything.
The ginseng soup, meat porridge, several delicate pastries, and a bag of preserved fruit, all from Madam Hou’s small kitchen, were put on the table.
The little sick man probably wanted to thank him, but he couldn’t say it out of embarrassment.
The words he uttered became even more eccentric, “I don’t know how expensive Shen Yuan’s soup is, that it even alarmed the young master.”
Hearing this Wei Zan smiled and said, “It’s really precious. The bowl you took just now is a bowl of snake meat soup.”
