Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

At the end of winter, Chen Afu completely sorted out the properties in the Hou Mansion.

Chu Ling'an and Shen also knew the old man's plan, and were sad and happy at the same time. The sad thing is that they are not willing to separate their families now and live with the Hou Mansion. All the expenses are paid by the big house, and they also belong to the prince and grandma of the Hou Mansion. Fortunately, the second master is not in charge of Shan Guo. The old master passed the property directly to Chu Ling'an, otherwise the family will slowly decline in a short time.

Chu Ling'an knew his father's character. He discussed with the old Marquis that his father should not know about the private house given by the old man. The 50,000 taels of silver obtained from the division of the family, excluding the 6,000 taels of dowry given to the two concubines, would be given to Chu Ling'an. An odd ten thousand taels, and most of the remaining silver was used to buy houses and fields. The old Marquis also agreed and had already sent people to look for it privately.

The Chu family was secretly dividing the family, while the imperial purge of the second prince and his party was proceeding with great fanfare. Chen Yuhui's father-in-law, He Quan, has been arrested and taken to Dali Temple. The He family has also been restricted in personal freedom and is not allowed to leave the He mansion.

At first, everyone thought that the purge of the remaining parties of the second prince would not proceed so quickly. Chen Shiying had not had time to go to He Quan to talk about Chen Yuhui's separation.

Chen Shiying was frightened when he received the news that He Quan had been arrested. It was not that he was worried about He Quan, but that if He Quan had control, he might be able to let Chen Yuhui go because of the heir relationship. And He Linsheng is just a bastard, without any reason, not to mention he hates Chen Yuhui.

Chen Shiying quickly asked for leave and returned to the capital to negotiate with the He family. Mrs. He and He Linsheng told him clearly that when a woman marries a chicken, she will follow the chicken, and when she marries a dog, she will follow the dog. It is impossible for her to find a way to run away if her husband's family is unlucky.

Chen Shiying used the child in Chen Yuhui's belly as an argument, saying that if the He family was exiled or sold, the child would either have difficulty surviving or become a slave. If they let Chen Yuhui get married, the Chen family will try their best to give the child away so that he can have a future.

He Linsheng said that since he is a descendant of the He family, he must advance and retreat together with the family, and live and die together. If Chen Shiying wanted to save his family, he would save his family. If he could not save his family, his daughter and grandson would suffer the same fate as her husband's family.

Looking at this bully, Chen Shiying had no choice. He didn't have the ability or the courage to save the He family at all. If it weren't for Chen Yuhui and the He family's frequent quarrels, which were known to everyone and even reached the Golden Palace, he wouldn't even have the ability or courage to save Chen Yuhui.

Chen Shiying had no choice but to leave the He family in despair. He didn't dare to delay for a long time. He had to rush back to Dingzhou capital tomorrow. At the end of the year, official affairs were busy, and His Royal Highness also hinted that he would straighten out all the affairs in Dingzhou and have other important tasks after the year.

Before leaving, he still went to Jiang Mansion and Chu Mansion and asked the Jiang family and Chen Afu to take care of Chen Yuhui.

Chen Afu left Chen Shiying to have dinner in Zhuxuan.

Chen Shiying was extremely frustrated and said to Chen Afu, "Fu'er, when dad is not in Beijing, if Hui'er needs help with something, just help her. Alas, although she doesn't live up to expectations, she is dad's daughter after all, and dad doesn't I wish she would die at such a young age. She is only three months pregnant, and my father is really afraid that He Linsheng, that beast, will do something bad to her."

Chen Afu agreed happily, "Okay, I will send someone to He's house to see her every few days."

Although Chen Afu hated Chen Yuhui very much, at this time, especially since she was still pregnant, it was still appropriate to send people from time to time to see if she had been harmed by the He family.

After the meal, the three children were brought back to Zhuxuan from Anrong Hall.

They no longer recognize Chen Shiying. Looking at this young and handsome Chen Shiying with only a mustache on his upper lip, Brother Yu asked Chen Afu, "Mom, who is this uncle?"

Xiao Yuer also stared at her big round eyes and asked, "Uncle, who is it?"

Their words made Chen Shiying laugh.

Chen Afu laughed and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? He is your grandfather, and you are all here to pay tribute to him."

Brother Ming finally found a reason to laugh at his brother, he laughed and said, "Brother calls the wrong bird, grandpa calls uncle."

Brother Yu scratched the head of the tile in embarrassment, trying to save face for himself, "Haha, grandpa looks like an uncle, not like grandpa."

Xiao Yuer also said two words, "Pretty."

Afterwards, the three children all came forward to kowtow to Chen Shiying and said, "I have met my grandpa."

Xiao Yu'er didn't know how to speak so many words. She only called "Master" and her voice was quite loud and was not suppressed by the two brothers.

Chen Shiying said "good boy", picked up Xiao Yu'er and said with a smile, "My granddaughter is really capable. She can kowtow and call people at such a young age."

Xiao Yuer is a member of the Appearance Association. She usually likes her handsome grandpa the most. Now that she sees her grandpa who is younger and more handsome than her grandpa, she likes him even more. She hugged Chen Shiying's neck, kissed him twice, laughed a few times, and raised her butt. He shouted again, "Master, Master, Master."

Seeing her very similar appearance to Chen Afu, Chen Shiying was very happy, thinking that Fu'er must have been this beautiful when she was a child, right? He also kissed her a few times.

Chen Shiying's depressed mood was completely driven away by these children. She played with the children for a long time before going home.

On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, Chen Afu finished allocating work in the inner court meeting hall and did not return to his Zhuxuan. Instead, he went to the third lady's Mingheyuan. Several children and the Animal House were all taken to Anrong Hall by Lord Chu, and it would be fine for Chen Afu to go back.

Although Lord Chu was free again, due to the emperor's attitude, he did not dare to go to Chen Chen and still played with his children every day. He wanted to win back Chen's heart, but he had to wait until the old emperor died.

I heard that the old emperor's health was already very bad. The Queen Mother's health unexpectedly improved again, and she was much better than the previous days. I wonder if the snacks sent by Chen Afu had an effect.

When she entered, the third lady was sitting on the kang, pursing her lips and enjoying herself.

Chen Afu smiled and said, "What good thing makes Third Aunt so happy? Is it a letter from Third Uncle?"

The third lady smiled and said, "Every time your third uncle writes a letter, does it miss the one Xuan'er gives you?" She added, "Chu Lin's marriage has been decided. She is a descendant of the Ding family. The Ding family will come to propose marriage in a few days. "

The father of a descendant of the Ding family is a doctor in the Ministry of Punishment. He is studying in the Imperial College. He is fifteen years old this year...

Chen Afu smiled and said, "Third aunt has done good things, and third and fourth girls will remember you forever."

The third lady said, "I don't care that they remember me, I just don't want Mrs. Li to miss them."

While the two were talking, Yali, the dowry girl that Chen Yuhui brought from her parents' home, was brought in. Yali's face turned red with tears.

Chen Afu was startled and asked, "What's going on?"

Yali cried, "Auntie, the second master caused a miscarriage of the fetus, and the second grandma lost a lot of blood..."
