Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chen Shiying rearranged the teeth of several girls, and explained that he would take a day off tomorrow and would write Chen Afu's name into the ancestral hall in the morning and record it under Jiang's name. Moreover, the Chu Mansion has sent someone to deliver a note this afternoon. Tomorrow, the old Marquis of the Chu family and Mrs. Chu San will ask General Fu to act as a matchmaker and come to the manor to negotiate a deal.

Afterwards, Mrs. Jiang sat down and Chen Afu kowtowed to her. She didn't call her "Mother", but "Mother".

Jiang was not very satisfied with this title, but seeing the tit-for-tat confrontation between Chen Afu and the old lady just now, Jiang really didn't want to offend this older girl from the bottom of her heart. Not only because she is about to marry into the Chu family, but also because she is really awesome.

Jiang wiped a transparent green jade bracelet from her wrist and said with a smile on her face, "Good girl, this was left to me by my grandmother, and I give it to you now. I hope you will get along well with your brothers and sisters in the future, forever." Remember this is your home."

Chen Afu said, "Thank you, mother." Then he stood up and took the bracelet.

Chen Yuhui was extremely angry. At that time, the old lady had asked Jiang to record her name in her name. Jiang promised well, but now she did not mention it. And that thing, my grandmother is sick, I don’t know if it will continue...

After Chen Afu saw the ceremony, Chen Shiying said, "You sisters and brothers must love each other and unite as one. Okay, let's all go to dinner."

Chen Shiying led the children to the west wing for dinner, while Jiang led the girl who served the meal to the old lady's bedroom to serve her dinner.

Chen Afu took out the two plates of golden cakes from the food box and put them on the table.

Chen Shiying took a piece to eat first, and kept nodding and saying, "Well, it is indeed delicious, sweet, soft and glutinous, and melts into pieces." Then he asked the girl to take two pieces to the old lady.

Chen Yulan also picked up a piece and ate it, nodding her head and saying, "It's delicious. Is this made by my sister? It's even more delicious than the snacks sold in the shop."

Chen Afu smiled and said, "As long as my brother likes it, there is a lot of food that my sister can cook. I will make more for my brother in the future."

After hearing this, Chen Yuqing and Chen Yuxia quickly took the gold cake and started eating it. Especially for Chen Yuxia, children like to eat sweets. After eating a few bites, they still want to eat but are too embarrassed to take them again. They are very confused.

Chen Afu smiled and took another piece for her.

Chen Yuhui didn't eat the golden cake. Even though the special sweet smell penetrated her nostrils, she had the guts to not take it.

Chen Shiying and Jiang returned to the main courtyard. Chen Shiying thought of the old lady's flickering eyes and whispered to Jiang, "Hate can distract people's minds. My mother is so confused. Adding hatred, I'm afraid she will do something stupid. Fu'er lives in the mansion. During these few nights here, you have to send a few confidants to quietly guard outside Ermen, Hengshou Courtyard, and Qiangwei Courtyard. If something really happens, don't make a big fuss. If the Chu family finds out that your mother dares to harm Fu'er, They won't let our family go so easily." After thinking for a while, he added, "Also, let people guard Tang and Hui'er's yard outside."

Jiang nodded. She was also afraid that the old lady would do something stupid and harm her husband and children. Not to mention Chen Afu himself is powerful, but the Chen family cannot afford to offend any of the Chu family members, including Mr. Chu, Chu Lingxuan, and Mrs. Chu.

On the way back to Qiangweiyuan, Chen Afu said to Qiuyue and Qingfeng who had accompanied her to Hengshouyuan, "Don't tell Mother Xu and the silver and jade bracelets about the conflict between me and the old lady today. This is the Chen family's housework. It’s not good for them to know about it.”

Qingfeng and Qiuyue both nodded and said hello.

Chen Afu was not really afraid that bad news about the Chen family would spread. She knew that she had offended the old lady so much that she would hide in space every night. He was also afraid that if Xu's mother knew about this and insisted on going into her bedroom to watch the night, she would be in trouble.

After returning to the house, Qiuyue and Qingfeng both wanted to stay overnight in her bedroom. Chen Afu did not agree and asked them to set up bunks on the floor in the living room. If there was any movement in the bedroom, they could hear it.

Mrs. Xu also insisted on staying in the hall all night. Yesterday was in Jiang's yard, so she was not afraid that something would happen to Miss Chen. But now that she was alone in the yard, she still had to take precautions.

Chen Afu lay down on the bed, Qiuyue put down the tent, extinguished the candle, then closed the door and went out.

Chen Afu lay there for a while, then quietly got up, put the pillow upright on the quilt, and quietly went to the clean room.

The door of the clean room is next to the bed, and there are two doors, one facing the bedroom and the other facing the backyard. She locked both doors and stepped into the space.

She leaned on the agarwood tree, thinking that if things went well, the matchmaker would come to talk about the match tomorrow, and the official matchmaker would come to propose the marriage the day after tomorrow. When the two families got married and the marriage was officially confirmed, she would be able to leave the Chen Mansion and return to the countryside...

I fell asleep in a daze. I don't know how long I had slept, but suddenly I heard a very light peck at the door outside, and then I heard a few very light murmurs of swallows.

It's the Golden Swallow. It's saying, "Open the door, it's me."

There are no windows in the clean room. Once the two doors are locked, the surroundings are sealed tightly. Jin Yanzi cannot enter the clean room, so he cannot enter the space.

Chen Afu quickly got out of the room and opened the door to the backyard of the clean room a small crack, and the golden swallow flew in.

One person and one swallow entered the space again.

Chen Afu asked, "Why are you here? Is Dabao okay?"

Jin Yanzi said, "Daddy Chu sent someone to fetch your father and mother. When they arrived, although the smelly Dabao was still making a fuss, it was not so bad anymore." He chirped again, "If they don't come, they won't be able to see you." to this big drama.”

"What big show?" Chen Afu asked.

Jin Yanzi said, "I missed Mommy. I saw Dabao falling asleep with grandma, so I came to see Mommy..."

As soon as Golden Swallow flew over the backyard of Chen's house, he felt something was going on, because there were people squatting under some trees and among the flowers, lying in wait. It was frightened and thought Mommy would be in danger. It flew to the highest rockery in the backyard, where there was a towering tree. Standing on the top of the tree, it could see the entire backyard.

Sure enough, at ten o'clock in the night, it saw a man emerging from a courtyard. Even though the man had his face covered tightly, he could tell from his body shape and actions that he was a man.

The man ran directly to Chen Afu's yard. While passing by a flower path, three women suddenly emerged from the flowers. At the same time, the three women raised their sticks and hit the man on the head hard. The man ducked and dodged two Despite the mother-in-law's attack, she was hit by a woman and fell down. The women made some more sticks, tied him up, blocked his mouth with rags, put him in a sack, and dragged him to a yard.

Chen Shiying and Jiang came out for interrogation at the same time. Someone searched his body and not only found the knife, but also the smoke.

I learned that this man was a relative of Tang's Wet Nurse, named Wang Sanlang. He worked in a stall in Dingzhou and he still had some skills. Today at noon, I was found by the wet nurse of the Tang family. She said that she had a good job. If she did well, she could become the son-in-law of the Chen family and get a lot of money...
