Chapter 1760: Chapter 1698: Uncle and Nephew

Wufu wasn’t very interested in the affairs of the Mei family. She was only here to pay respects to the so-called grandmother she had never met and to bury her mother, before heading to Beiyan. At the Mei family, she was just a temporary guest; as long as others didn’t provoke her, she would stay for a while and leave. If someone without sense dared to provoke her, she would not tolerate it.

With Wufu’s instructions, the servants naturally understood and behaved properly, adopting a guest-like demeanor.

The arrival of Wufu and her group didn’t hide anything, naturally attracting many curious onlookers.

Among them were Jiang Yufang, Hua Wushuang’s sister, and her two children.

Jiang Yufang married a Scholar Khor from Quanzhou, who was talented and had a bright future. It was only a matter of time before he would become a successful imperial examination candidate. Unfortunately, his life was fragile, and he accidentally fell off a cliff while on a mountain excursion with fellow scholars and died.

After Scholar Khor’s death, Jiang Yufang returned to the Mei family with her children and has lived there for three years.

Jiang Yufang led her children to Hua Wushuang’s courtyard to pay their respects.

"Uncle, you’ve finally returned." Khor Jun looked at Hua Wushuang with joy, took two steps forward, her eyes sparkling like stars, and teased, "Uncle comes back without letting us know; otherwise, we wouldn’t have gone to the banquet."

Hua Wushuang furrowed his brow, glanced at Khor Jun, and remained silent.

Seeing Hua Wushuang’s expression, Jiang Yufang immediately reprimanded lightly, "Yunyun, don’t be impolite. Aren’t you going to pay respects to Uncle first?"

Khor Jun hesitated for a moment and then placed her hands at her side, bending her knee to give a courtesy bow, "Yunyun was reckless and impolite; please forgive me, Uncle."

Jiang Yufang also smiled and said to Hua Wushuang, "Brother, you’ve been gone so long, the children talk about you every day."

Hua Wushuang made a sound of acknowledgment and said, "If there’s nothing, you can return to your courtyard."

Khor Jun opened her mouth to say something more but Jiang Yufang tugged her sleeve and quickly added, "Brother just returned, he should rest first. Since we’ve paid our respects, we’ll take our leave now."

With that, regardless of Khor Jun’s reluctance, she pulled her away.

Hua Wushuang watched them depart, his brows furrowing slightly.

Steward Mei walked in, serving quietly by the side.

"Are Wufu and her group settled?" Hua Wushuang asked.

Steward Mei smiled and nodded, "Everything is arranged. The young master is right next to the lady’s room. Those around the girl are quite capable."

Hua Wushuang’s lips curved slightly, "Of course, they are trained individuals. Don’t underestimate her attendants; many are clever and have a foundation in Kung Fu!"

Steward Mei was somewhat surprised.

Hua Wushuang sighed, "I found Mei Niang a step too late; oh well, it’s fate."

"Young master, what’s actually going on?"

Steward Mei was a loyal elder by Old Lady Mei’s side, who watched Hua Wushuang grow up. His loyalty was unquestioned, and Hua Wushuang didn’t hide anything from him, explaining the situation of retrieving Madam Zhou, Wufu, and others.

Upon learning that Wufu was already married, and her spouse was none other than Prince Qi from a foreign country, Steward Mei was shocked and surprised, saying, "No wonder the old servant noticed her attendants handling things thoroughly and methodically, which seems not like a small household’s upbringing; now it all makes sense."

"How servants act depends on how the master trains them," Hua Wushuang said.

Steward Mei deeply agreed.

"This time, we’ve returned to pay respects at Mother’s grave, and also find a place nearby to bury Mei Niang, so mother and daughter can reunite. Let Uncle Mei find an auspicious day for it," Hua Wushuang instructed.
