Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

At the end of the next day, in addition to Chen Atang and Chen Alu, everyone from the Chen family came, including Mrs. Chen and Dafang's family. Farming is slack now, so their family lives in a house in Fucheng. Chen Atang was also admitted as a scholar this spring and is now studying at Shizhou Academy.

No one else has changed much, except Hu, who is yellow and thin, and can't even walk as neatly as before. She was frightened. Ever since she found out that Dabao had become the eleventh prince, she was so frightened that she fell ill. She knew that she was not good to Dabao, and she was afraid that someone would come to arrest her every day. Half a year later, after confirming that no one would come to arrest her, her illness gradually improved, but her health was no longer as good as before.

Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, Ah Fu, don't think it's too early for us to be guests. We really miss you.

Chen Afu stepped forward to support Mrs. Chen and said with a smile, I wish I could see you earlier.

Then, Uncle Wang's family also came. Originally, Chu Lingxuan wanted to transfer his uncle Wang Cai to the capital, because after the war, Chu Lingxuan would also return to the capital to take up a post. But Uncle Wang Cai was unwilling. One was because he preferred to be closer to his sister's family, and the other was because he was afraid of Wu's natal family and wanted to stay away from them. Half a year ago, Wu's parents and brothers actually came to his house to ask for money. It was the brothers in the army who helped drive those people away.

Except for Hu, Chen Afu was very happy to see these people. Especially when I see the children Wang Xiaodi, Wang Xiaomei, Dahu, Daya and Dalong, they have all grown taller.

She gave them the gifts she had given them. The gifts she brought this time were of great value, including clothing and food.

He also gave them a bunch of gifts that Xiao Shiyi had brought for them, pointed at a few packages of snacks among them and said with a smile, These snacks are made by the Imperial Kitchen.

Old Mrs. Chen smiled so hard that her eyes turned into deep wrinkles, and said, Oh, why am I willing to eat this thing? I must take it back and offer it as an offering.

Chen Afu said, Don't worry about eating the milk. His Highness Eleven remembers your kindness. If you like it, he will bring it to you in the future.

Mrs. Chen was so moved that her eyes were red, and she said, That kid is benevolent and righteous. He remembers every good thing we did to him. Alas, it turns out that his family was poor and we wronged him, causing him to suffer a lot. She looked at Chen Afu. He glanced at me and said, I feel wronged, Ah Fu. I know you are a good boy who remembers your feelings.

Chen Shi opened a pack of snacks, first handed a piece to the old lady, and then distributed it to several children. He smiled at everyone and said, This is His Highness's sympathy. Let's all have a try. I didn't expect that we can still eat it in this life. It is an honor to go to the imperial kitchen and eat food cooked in it.”

Everyone else came to take the snacks and eat them.

Chen Ye also smiled and said, When we return to the countryside during the Chinese New Year, we have something to brag about again. Tsk tsk, we can eat what the emperor ate, and there is smoke coming out of the ancestral graves.

He said making everyone laugh.

Only Mrs. Hu's face turned white with fright. She lowered her head and did not dare to speak or take snacks. Everyone knew about her heartache, and no one tried to persuade her.

At this time in the capital, Chu Lingqi rushed back to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. He went directly to the courtyard of Mr. Chu Laohou and reported to him what happened in Luojiazhuang. The old Marquis was so angry and anxious that he almost lost his breath. He was relieved when he heard that Chen and others were not injured.

He quickly sent someone to the princess mansion to call his eldest son back. Before the third lady entered the palace, someone went to invite her.

When the Marquis of Chu hurried back to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion and heard what happened, he was so angry that he smashed his fist on the table, gritted his teeth and cursed, How dare these two evil women do this!

Mrs. Chu San also shook her head and sighed, Concubine Ma Shu and Rong Zhao are too courageous and have extremely vicious hearts.

The old Marquis said, Perhaps our repeated forbearance and concessions have made them think that we are easy to bully, so they dare to do such evil things. Now it seems that there is no way to retreat.

The Marquis of Chu nodded and said, Originally, I always wanted to wait until the third brother and Xuan'er came back, or the emperor... He did not dare to say the word death, and then said, I will make further calculations. But those two people have arrived in advance. If you want to die, let’s help them.”

Mrs. Chu San said, There is no evidence to prove, can Concubine Ma Shu and Rong Zhao admit their guilt? They can definitely say that it was the remnants of the second prince who did it, and it has nothing to do with them. They want to harm people, it is impossible to force the sister-in-law out of the city today, and the next night Just dare to take action. Doesn’t this make people suspicious?”

The Marquis of Chu said, What they did was probably to cover up the truth. We did not catch their evidence, and they also have excuses to escape responsibility. After a pause, he added, But if the emperor wants to There is no need for their recognition to deal with them, and some are just excuses to deal with the mother and daughter. Whether it was done by the remnant of the second prince or by the mother and daughter, it was because I obeyed the emperor and supported the prince, which made them jealous. I spent half my life of forbearance, humiliation, and my wife and children to be loyal to the emperor, but in exchange, so many family members were almost burned to death. Today, what our Chu family wants is an attitude from the emperor and the prince. Should they let their ministers We are completely heartbroken!

Several people discussed for a while and then split up.

The third lady went to the palace to find the queen and explain the matter to her. The Queen Mother is in very bad health now and I dare not disturb her with these things.

The old marquis went to his old friend and cried, saying that because Liao Chen was almost kidnapped by the second prince's gang when she was living outside the city, he had no choice but to let her live in Chu Lingxuan's home in Dingzhou Mansion for protection. Unexpectedly, Concubine Ma Shu sent her servant to scold Chen that day and said many unpleasant words. Chen was so angry that he moved to Zhuangzi outside the city. As a result, something happened the next night, involving Chen, his eldest grandson's wife, his eldest granddaughter, and his second son. Grandsons, second grandsons and daughters-in-law, so many people were almost burned to death...

The Marquis of Chu entered the palace to find the emperor and the prince. Before entering the palace, he turned around and went to the princess mansion.

He came to the main courtyard, where Rong Zhao was standing on the Kang. Concubine Ma Shu told her, don't be afraid, the Chu family didn't catch anyone alive. No matter what, they don't recognize it. But she was just afraid. Thinking of the consort's cold face, she was so frightened that she felt like she had fallen into an ice hole. She was at her wits end, so she let her mother and concubine use this desperate strategy...

Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Lord Chu coming. She stood up with a smile and said, Chu Lang, it's been several days since you came...

Before she finished speaking, Lord Chu raised his hand and slapped her on the face, causing her to fall onto the edge of the kang.

Rong Zhao shouted Ah. Not to mention that Rong Zhao didn't expect that the Marquis of Chu would dare to hit him. Even the nun who was waiting next to him didn't expect that the prince-in-law would dare to hit the princess.

They were so frightened that they went over to help Rong Zhao up and reprimanded the Marquis of Chu, The princess is like a golden branch and a jade leaf, how can the prince-in-law do such a thing!

Lord Chu ignored Mammy, wiped his hand with the silk handkerchief, and then threw away the silk handkerchief. Looking at Rong Zhao word by word, he said, Rong Zhao, you will pay for the sins you have done.
