C21 Sobbing the First Mother

I choked on Blood Mother a bit

After the guests had all left, leaving behind their own people, Wu Jun said expressionlessly: "Little brother, follow me to the backyard at the back of the house to pay respects to mother!"

"Yes, legitimate brother." Wu Youwei remained polite.

Sobbing Wu Jun a little, he flung his sleeves and walked in front, with Wu You Wei following behind him.

From the main gate to the main yard of the house, they had to pass through four courtyards. This was a large, five-in-one house with four mansions and a row of twenty-four back rooms.

The first three and the last two were separated by a small garden.

The last two courtyards were occupied by Old Madam Wu and the three young misses. The first three courtyards were for Wu Jun, the first three were for his eldest son to live in, the rear courtyard was for Wu Jun's daughter-in-law to live in, and the back courtyard was for Wu Jun's two concubines to live in. The foot-house and the chamber against the wall were for the servants to live in.

On the west side, the west side was the guest house, while on the west side, the backyard was where Wu Youwei lived.

The servants' rooms were arranged in rows after they crossed the courtyard. He only had male servants here, while the maids at Lady Wu Jun's place were all female servants. They were separated by a little distance from the old lady's courtyard.

Although the Wu Family wasn't a big deal, it was still okay to say that they were an official family, so this rule was even stricter than usual.

In normal times, apart from working, the servants were not allowed to run around freely.

Wu Youjiu's yard was an accident, but it could also be said that the original owner did not care about people, he only knew how to read, how to read, and how to die.

When the two of them arrived at the backyard, the house was already as usual. However, white cloth could still be seen everywhere, indicating that there was a great filial piety in the house.

"Greetings to Mother." The two of them knelt down and kowtowed in respect.

Now that there was no Gramps, Old Madam Wu was the person with the highest seniority in this family.

"Alright, get up." Old Madam Wu was also tired after sending her the funeral. She had a head covered with a tens of thousands of embroidered words and was being beaten by two little maidservant s. An old lady was pressing on her shoulder with a tired expression.

Wu Youwei took advantage of the moment to take a quick glance at the old mistress' room.

He was lying on the kang next to the window. The kang was covered with a mattress embroidered with white crescent plum blossoms, and on the back of the bed was a large silver thread embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns.

On the left side, there was a small copper incense burner, a silver spoon with a incense box, and on the right, a plum bottle with a cloisonné color. Inside the bottle were early blooming white plum blossoms, teacups, and sputum boxes.

There were eight chairs on the ground. All of them were made up of plain colored chairs, with four pairs of feet on the bottom. On both sides of the chairs, there were also a couple of tall chairs, some of which were filled with green bowls and flowers.

On the treasure pavilion, there was an auspicious jade, a jade ruyi, and a three-legged golden cicada made of gold.

It might have been a very rich house, but because of the mourning, the red lacquer pillars were all wrapped in white cloth, and there was not much of a festive color to be seen.

"Master is gone now …" Speaking of this, Old Madam Wu raised her hand and used a handkerchief to compress the corners of her eyes, as if she was crying. In reality, she did not have any, but the formality was: "In this family, we have to be filial piety for at least three years, or at least twenty-seven months. During this period of time, let's just obediently stay at home."

"Yes, mother."

"Yes, Blood Mother."

Regarding this, the two of them did not disagree.

The Old Madam Wu continued, "You have a point, you should stop your Imperial examinations for three years now."

Yes, if the old man... He will be able to take the Scholar's Examination next spring.

Now, he could only obediently stay at home and mourn.

"This is a matter that is only natural. Father will be going, and the Blood Mother must take care of herself." "Without our father, we can't lose the care and care of the Blood Mother."

She choked on Blood Mother a bit.

Old Madam Wu was so angry!

He was already in a bad mood, but this little scoundrel was still angering her. Old Madam Wu's eyes grew hot and she wanted to cry, so she put a "disrespectful" title on this little scoundrel.
