Maid's Survival Manual

Chapter 53

With the lawsuit on his mind, Chen Yun was busy in the outer study for a day, and returned to Qingxueyuan dizzy. Before he could sit still, he saw Mrs. Li leave the inner room with the help of Cha Nong.Instead of a decent and gentle smile like before, there was a worried look on his face.

Chen Yun's heart sank, he quickly supported her, and said angrily: "Your body is getting heavier and heavier, I told you to stop being polite, why didn't you listen?"

Mrs. Li smiled embarrassingly, and said: "Although the uncle is considerate, the concubine does not dare to disrespect. Mother Xu has come over today..."

"Oh, Mrs. Xu is a hard worker, and she can't rest for a while, but everything has been settled?" Chen Yun was impatient, but he was always here, so he couldn't invite Mrs. Xu out.

Mrs. Li said mockingly: "Mother Xu is very considerate. She is familiar with the family and the way. She is more proficient than the concubine. Wherever the concubine needs to be placed, she has already put the whole courtyard up and down, inside and out, and even Everything around the uncle has been arranged properly."

Chen Yun couldn't hear the implication of these words, so he had no choice but to calm down: "You are about to give birth, and it is the most critical time, so don't get hurt by such irrelevant trifles. body."

Even Mrs. Chen had the same idea, for fear that she would make a fool of herself, and then make a mess of the child.

Although Mrs. Li is not angry, she is unwilling to do so. From the day she entered the house, this yard has become her own three-acre land. Whether it is manpower or rules, she has built it up bit by bit. Xu's mother came here as soon as she said it, and changed it when she wanted to change it. She changed her usual low-key style of forbearance and made a drastic move. She was embarrassed to say it on her face, but couldn't she be a little unhappy and not angry?Even if you complain to him verbally, he will dislike you...

Li's eyes were slightly red, and she lowered her head and said: "No matter how ignorant I am, I still have priorities. The heirs are the most important thing, and I know everything in my heart. It's just Bai chatting with the uncle, otherwise, I'm afraid the uncle will notice the change. I thought it was my concubine's handwriting."

He'll notice a difference soon enough, but he doesn't know how to respond, whether to be happy or complain.Naturally he was happy, because it was in line with his wishes, and he would naturally complain, thinking that she was too jealous and bitter in the past.

Chen Yun also understood Li Shi's discomfort.After all, Mother Xu came here to represent Mrs. Chen, and as an old man, she would inevitably be suspected of being arrogant and domineering.Not to say that Mama Xu is bullying the Lord, but that when it comes to children and heirs, older people are always good teachers, treating the younger generation as urchins who don't understand anything, and they like to talk to themselves about everything.

Mrs. Li didn't have the experience of getting along with a serious mother-in-law. When Mrs. Xu came, she was more difficult to get along with than a serious mother-in-law. It was inevitable that she would be uncomfortable.

Chen Yun looked at Mrs. Li with a rare tenderness, and said: "Xinyan, you have to bear with it, anyway, it will only be a few months, and when the child is born, I will find an excuse to send Mama Xu away. Qing Xueli There are already a lot of people, but if there are a few more wet nurses, Mother Xu will not be here to help anymore anyway."

Mrs. Li was extremely wronged.Why should she be wronged?But I also know that it is already the limit for Chen Yun to say such a thing.Xu's mother was sent by her mother-in-law, and she only came for a day, and she had to be dismissed for no reason. Isn't that a slap in the face of her mother-in-law?Not to mention that the mother-in-law couldn't swallow this breath, even the husband-in-law would not allow himself to do this.

Mrs. Li smiled wryly, and said: "I understand. I heard a good joke today. The sixth younger brother sent away everyone in the yard because of his waywardness, and actually isolated Qiu Yunju from the world. There are almost fewer doors. After all, he is still young, and the master and wife can follow his temper. It is ridiculous that the third younger brother has followed suit and locked up Qingliangju..."

Chen Yun's eyes widened, and he asked, "What? Why is the third younger brother messing around too? Really..."

Mrs. Li forcefully pursed her lips into a smile, and said: "The sixth younger brother left only one person, but the third younger brother pulled another person. Now his small courtyard is said to be a paradise, and the world's beauty is almost the same..."

In fact, Mrs. Li is envious.Chen Yun has the ability, even if he only gets a little property in the mansion, he goes out to set up his own house, sets up a small courtyard alone, and takes care of the children. The life of the three of them is as good as it is, not better than living together?But neither he nor she has the courage and willfulness.

Chen Yun misunderstood, and said with righteous indignation: "Too ignorant, simply too ignorant. Little Liuer is fine, why is the third child also adding trouble? No, I have to go and see and persuade."

Mrs. Li didn't move, and only advised palely: "You should go and have a look. If it wasn't for my heavy body, I would go and have a look. It’s no different to set up your own family. My wife is angry, so it’s inevitable that I’ll be negligent, and I’ll inevitably miss things. Don’t be empty-handed, and ask them what they need…”

She repeatedly mentioned the word "self-supporting family", Chen Yun's heart moved, he looked at Li Shi and said: "You are the elder sister-in-law, they are not sensible, you should remind them when you see them, and you must not add fuel to the flames."

Li smiled and said: "I know, no matter how envious I am, I can't make them feel more at ease than us, right?"

Chen Yun who said this sentence also laughed, and said: "You, you—"

Li smiled on her face, but she was very bitter in her heart, she was telling the truth.

Chen Yun had something to worry about, so he managed to grab a few mouthfuls of food before going out.Mrs. Li wanted to see him off, but he persuaded him to go back, saying: "I have to go to my third brother's place since I was a child, and maybe to see my father, I'm afraid it's too late to come back, don't wait for me, rest early Alright."

She wanted to wait, with Madam Xu sitting in the town in person, she was afraid that she would not let herself be safe when the candles were lit, and she would teach herself a lesson first by bringing up all kinds of great principles.

Mrs. Li agreed, and then went back to rest without mentioning it.

Chen Yun made a detour to Chen Yunzheng's place first.

Qiu Yunju was unbelievably quiet, and the yard was also pitch-black. With fewer people, it looked even more desolate.Bai Shu trotted inside to report, and when Chen Yun entered the main room, Chen Yunzheng also got up from behind the table.

Chen Yun was stunned, and couldn't help sighing: "Sixth Brother really has grown up."

According to him, Chen Yunzheng was just angry for a while, and if he really left, it would be good for him to cry without fear. Unexpectedly, he would arrange his daily work and rest in an orderly manner as usual.

Chen Yun was just putting down his pen, took a towel to clean his hands, grinned and said: "Elder brother actually made fun of me, I wish I could be one-tenth of elder brother's, so I won't be so angry as to ignore my wife." people."

Chen Yun nodded secretly, and said: "It's good that you know you're wrong, and you'll have to apologize to your wife tomorrow morning, and just move back."

Chen Yunzheng asked Chen Yun to sit down, and said solemnly: "Brother, what you said is wrong. A man is a man. If you say what you say, how can you break your word and get fat? I know that you are doing it for my own good and worrying about me. I will not make any empty promises. Just please wait and see."

Unexpectedly, he was so determined, Chen Yun was silent for a long time.Bai Shu came in with two cups of tea, and said with a smile, "Master, please drink some tea, don't think the young man's skills are rough."

Chen Yun glanced at him, and said: "It's hard for you, your sixth master has no one to take care of you, you can take on multiple roles, and you have to be more dedicated than before."

Bai Shu said: "It's worth it for the villain, just don't worry about it, sir."

Chen Yun couldn't say anything, so he took a sip of the tea and felt that the taste was really not good enough, so he asked Chen Yunzheng: "Didn't it mean that Manman is still there? The matter started with her, and she should treat the crime and make meritorious deeds. Don't be too indulgent." .”

Chen Yunzheng still smiled innocently, and said: "In the past, Xiaoliu was ignorant, and he didn't know how to defend men and women. When I went to elder brother, I often frightened sister Chunxian a few times. I knew that elder brother didn't care about me, so I didn't ask Manman to come out. It's..."

Yes, Chen Yun sighed.This kid, after this incident, his brain has really become more active, and he also knows that men and women have avoided suspicion.That's right, if he was so scrupulous, he wouldn't have to worry about Manman causing trouble in the future.

It's just that when he thinks about his food, clothing, housing, and transportation in the past, everything is extremely exquisite, and now he has his own household, and I'm afraid that he won't be used to it.

Who would have thought that Chen Yunzheng didn't care at all: "I've figured it out now. I used to listen to my wife and elder brother's lessons, and I thought it was too dogmatic. Why don't you endure hardships? Fragrance comes from the bitter cold... Now I really feel it. Young people who endure hardships will always be rewarded in the future. It is better than doing nothing when young and regretting in vain when they are old. But the desire for food and drink is nothing more than food and clothing. It is enough for me. Besides, Manman often said that it is good for people to have desires, but it should be done in moderation. If the desires are too intense, they will be easily controlled by desires, lead by the nose, and lose their heart. In fact, the master and wife will not treat me badly in the end. What is there to complain about? It’s just that there are fewer people to serve, and it’s quieter for me, and it’s more suitable for studying and making progress.”

Chen Yun was very surprised, he didn't expect Chen Yunzheng to have such deep feelings, and even more unexpected that Manman would say such words, and even more unexpected that she had such a profound influence on the sixth brother.

Knowing how to persuade him not to move, Chen Yun asked him about his homework. Chen Yunzheng's answer was clear and logical, although it was not very profound, but it did have some meaning.

Chen Yun asked him again if he needed anything, and Chen Yunzheng refused all of them: "I am fine now, if there is something missing, I will bother my brother, so you can rest assured, I am not stupid or idiot , If you really feel uncomfortable, you will go to your parents to pester you, and you won't let yourself suffer."

Chen Yun, who was talking about it, laughed, he was really relieved, and said: "Since you said that, brother can rest assured, you should study hard, not for the sake of the master and wife, but for your own future, for the sake of your own future. Where is the person you fancy..."

The meaning was beyond words, Chen Yun nodded in favor.
