The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 113 Uncle is Back

But at this time, Tang Peipei had no idea what was happening in the court.

I'm afraid even if I knew, I wouldn't have time to take care of it.

Because there are more serious things waiting for her to deal with.

Lu Lifeng came back with several carts of goods and a woman.

When Lu Lifeng came back, he directly took several carts of cloth to the store.

Liu Yeling was very happy to see her husband coming back after being away from home for nearly a month.

He asked people to carry all the goods to the backyard and happily poured water for Lu Lifeng.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped past the store door, he saw Lu Lifeng helping a woman with a bun get off the carriage.

Liu Yeling's expression changed immediately.

Fortunately, he still had some rationality left. He walked over and asked Lu Lifeng with a smile: "Who is this?"

When Lu Lifeng saw Liu Yeling coming over, he felt a little embarrassed, but he still replied calmly: "This is your stepmother."

Then he smiled and introduced her to his stepmother: "This is my wife."

That night, my mother looked very quiet and gentle, and even when she spoke angry words, her voice was soft and gentle, like a gentle breeze.

"Wan Niang has met elder sister!"

After all, Liu Yeling had learned some etiquette from Tang Peipei's tutor, so when she saw her stepmother bowing to her, she naturally would not introduce this etiquette before clarifying the situation.

She turned sideways and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, mother? We just met today, so you can't be called sister. Mother, why don't you call me sister-in-law or just call me by my name, Ye Ling."

Wanniang immediately looked at Lu Lifeng at a loss.

When Tang Peipei arrived, what he saw was Wanniang's pitiful appearance.

Tang Peipei didn't know what was going on, but seeing the woman looking at her uncle pitifully, he had some guesses in his mind.

From a distance, he called out, "Uncle."

Seeing Tang Peipei coming, Lu Lifeng said with a smile, "Peipei, come into the store and take a look. This time, your uncle brought back a lot of good stuff."

Tang Peipei smiled and said, "Then I'd better take a good look."

Tang Peipei stepped forward and took Liu Yeling's arm, and said to Lu Lifeng, "Uncle, let's go."

Lu Lifeng wanted to show off in front of his niece, so he happily took Tang Peipei and Liu Yeling into the backyard of the store.

Wanniang saw that everyone had left and no one cared about her, which made her feel very embarrassed as she didn't want to leave but didn't want to stay either.

She gritted her teeth and stamped her feet. For the sake of her future happy life, Stepmother shamelessly followed him into the store.

The waiter in the shop saw that she came back with Lu Lifeng and didn't want to chase her away, so he poured her some tea and asked her to sit and wait.

Lu Lifeng happily opened a box he had brought back and called Tang Peipei forward as if he was presenting a treasure.

Tang Peipei didn't expect that his uncle would bring back so many beautiful pearls and agates.

Tang Peipei picked it up curiously and asked, "Uncle, where did you get these?"

Lu Lifeng said, "After I bought the cloth according to your request with the money you gave me, I saw that there was still some left. I kept an eye on it because you said you needed these things to decorate your clothes. I didn't expect to find them. Take a look at these. Do you like them?"

Although these pearls are not perfect, they are of good quality and are more than enough to be used as decorations on clothes.

Tang Peipei didn't expect that her uncle could bring back so many pearls and agates this time. It was simply great.

Tang Peipei had already started thinking about how to use these pearls and agates.

After seeing the goods brought back by Lu Lifeng, Tang Peipei was very satisfied.

He was just about to take Lu Lifeng and Liu Yeling to the office upstairs to check and store the goods.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked to the back, I saw the weak stepmother sitting at the counter drinking tea.

Tang Peipei quietly pulled Lu Lifeng and Liu Yeling back to the backyard.

He looked at his uncle and asked, "What's the matter with that woman?"

Lu Lifeng said embarrassedly: "I rescued her on the way. She said she was from Qianzhou and was fleeing to Suzhou, but she met bandits. When I met her, she was dirty and tattered. I thought she was from Qianzhou, so I rescued her."

Tang Peipei asked, "Why didn't uncle settle her down? Why did he bring her to the capital? Does uncle still want to keep her?"

Lu Lifeng said quickly, "Don't say that. I gave her some money and let her find a way to make a living. But she said she was a woman and didn't know where to go. She insisted on following me." Afraid that Liu Yeling would misunderstand, Lu Lifeng said quickly, "I ignored her at first, but she insisted on following my carriage. This woman was injured before, so it's not a good idea for her to follow me like this. Seeing how pitiful she was, I couldn't bear it, so I brought her to the capital."

Tang Peipei more or less understood his uncle's thoughts. He was probably tired during the journey and met such a delicate girl. He was probably worried that this girl must have asked her uncle about his well-being along the way.

My uncle's heart must have been shaken by this, so he brought the person to the capital.

Tang Peipei would never allow her uncle to make such a low-level mistake. She smiled and asked, "Then, uncle, have you thought about how to deal with this woman next?"

Lu Lifeng shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about this yet."

Tang Peipei said, "Since uncle hasn't made up his mind, let me handle it. Don't worry about the rest. You've been away from home for so long, and it must have been hard on the road. Just stay at home and accompany your aunt for the next few days."

After saying that, he took Liu Yeling and Lu Lifeng out of the backyard and went upstairs.

The girl called Wanniang saw someone coming out and was afraid of being left behind, so she quickly called out, "Brother Lu."

With Liu Yeling present, Lu Lifeng felt somewhat cautious and said to his stepmother, "Please sit down for a while. When I'm done, my niece will make arrangements for you."

After saying that, he followed Tang Peipei and the others upstairs.

The three of them recorded the incoming goods one by one and registered them in the register.

By the time Tang Peipei and the others finished their work, it was already past lunchtime.

Wanniang was in a hurry on the road and didn't have a good meal, so she was already hungry.

Seeing Tang Peipei and others coming down, he hurried forward.

Tang Peipei called the shop assistant and said, "Xiao Fu, please help me take this aunt to eat something. I will arrange a place for her to stay later. Go ahead."

After saying this, he did not forget to smile at Wanniang to comfort her.

Xiaofu took Wanniang to the backyard and bought her a bowl of noodles.

Tang Peipei thought that her uncle had worked so hard for so long, so naturally she wanted to take him out for a nice welcome.

So he took Liu Yeling and Lu Lifeng to Tianfu Restaurant.

Lu Lifeng hadn't had a good meal for a long time. Seeing that Tang Peipei had ordered all his favorite dishes, he didn't hesitate and picked up his chopsticks to eat.

Seeing that her husband seemed like he hadn't eaten for a long time, Liu Yeling couldn't help feeling distressed and kept picking up food for Lu Lifeng.

Lu Lifeng smiled gratefully at his wife, having already forgotten the incident with Stepmother.
