Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Chu Lingxuan, the third master, and Chu Lingwei came back. Also coming back with them were the old man and Brother Ming.

The old man came back to celebrate the full moon for Xiao Shuangshuang.

Chu Lingxuan said very sadly, "My uncle and auntie both went to Tangyuan. No matter how we tried to persuade her, my mother refused to return to secular life."

Chen Afu was very helpless after hearing this. Everyone knew that Liao Chen did not sincerely worship the Buddha. She was just ashamed, angry, aggrieved and unwilling. It hurts her to stay alone in Buddhism, and her family cannot bear it. If she is really like Empress Dowager Shan, who can only find comfort in Buddhism, other family members except the old Marquis may also recognize her.

It's a pity that God does not follow people's wishes. Because Queen Mother Shan was the Queen Mother, although she had long wanted to become a monk, for the sake of the emperor, she could only continue to stay in the palace. After the emperor has truly secured his position, I wonder if she will be able to get her wish.

Chen Afu advised, "We expected that my mother-in-law would be like this. We will ask for help when the child is older. As the saying goes, where the golden city comes, the gold and stone will open. One day, my mother-in-law will change her mind."

Chu Lingxuan nodded and sighed, "That's all we have to do." He added, "My father also wanted to have children, but he didn't want my mother to stay alone in Yingxue'an, so he had to stay in Fuyuan. Go to Honglin Mountain for two or three days. Even if he can't see my mother, he will let her know that my father is nearby to accompany her."

He took out two small rosewood pendant necklaces and said, "My mother gave these to Brother Li and Xiao Zhu'er. She specially asked for them from Master Gui Ling. They have been soaked in a decoction and are good for the children's health."

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Xiao Shuang is full moon. The little brothers and sisters were weighed early in the morning. Brother Li weighed ten pounds and little Zhuer weighed five and a half pounds. Everyone was quite satisfied with their growth. Although little Pearl is now lighter than many newborn babies, she is healthy, lovable and much better than imagined.

On this day, the Chu family held a grand banquet, and most of the royal family, nobles, and famous families in the capital sent people to congratulate them. The old man, Chu Lingxuan, the third master, Chu Lingwei, and Chu Lingzhi entertained the male guests in the outer courtyard, while the third lady, Chu Hua, and Chu Hanyan entertained the female guests in the Lilac Hall.

What was unexpected was that Princess Ronghe and Feng Miaohua actually came.

When Chu Hanyan looked at Feng Meihua, she became scared. The third lady squeezed her hand and whispered, "They are here to curry favor with us and show off their momentum."

The little girl said dullly, "I don't like them."

The third lady smiled and said, "If you don't like it, just ignore it. Even if our eldest sister shows shame to others, they will only watch."

Rong and the eldest princess came over to chat with the third lady. Feng Miaohua concealed the unwillingness in his eyes and came to hold Chu Hanyan's hand with a smile. Chu Hanyan didn't smile and turned around to hide.

The third lady smiled at Chu Hanyan and said, "Look, Miss Rong Jing, Miss Zhu, and Miss Yang are greeting you. Go over and play with them."

After hearing this, Chu Hanyan turned around to find a small handkerchief she had played with and handed it over.

Feng Miaohua's eyes were so angry that she was about to curse, but when she heard Rong He coughing, she swallowed what she wanted to say.

Before lunch, Empress Dowager Shan and Empress Zhang came to express their wishes. The Queen Mother gave the little brother and sister two seven-treasure necklaces, two strands of red musk beads, and two handles of jade Ruyi. The queen gave the little brother and sister two gold unicorns and two small jade locks.

Faced with such a majestic imperial favor, no one would not envy him.

After the meal, the guests watched a play, and Chen Afu took his two children back to the main room to rest. Chen Yuqing, Chen Aman, and Mao were also invited to rest in the side room. All three of them are pregnant now.

In mid-February, the weather was getting warmer, and the old man was planning to take Brother Yu to live in the countryside. Chen Afu prepared a lot of things for them, including more than twenty sets of clothes from inside to outside, as well as many daily necessities. Neither the old man nor the old marquis had a woman to prepare these things, so Chen Afu helped prepare most of these things. The old man and his three wives were filial, and the old man basically relied on Chen Afu.

Xiao Yu'er heard that her great-grandfather was taking her eldest brother to the countryside to see her grandpa again. She was so sad that she cried every day. "The eldest brother and the second brother will go there interchangeably, without Xiao Yu'er. How could this be possible... wu wu wu..."

Chu Lingxuan felt sorry for his daughter and discussed with Chen Afu, "Look at how pitifully my daughter is crying, just let her go and bring more people with her. Besides, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are also there."

As soon as Xiao Yu'er heard that there was a way out, she looked at her mother with tears in her eyes and said with pursed lips, "Mother, mother, Xiao Yu'er, please..."

After hearing this, Brother Yu also interceded for his sister and said, "Mom, just let my sister go. I will take care of her."

Looking at Xiao Yu'er, who was stronger than other children of the same age, Chen Afu nodded in agreement and said, "You can go, but you can't stay for a long time."

Xiao Yu'er and Brother Yu cheered for a while after hearing this, and Brother Ming burst into tears again.

Chu Lingxuan was troubled by a few brats every day, and he had no patience with them. He frowned and scolded, "You have already gone to play, why are you still arguing with your sister? If you continue to make trouble, just face the wall and think about it."

Brother Ming was afraid of his father, so he quickly closed his mouth and sobbed silently.

Chen Afu pulled Brother Ming over, wiped his tears, and coaxed him a few more words.

They were preparing to leave on February 20th. As a result, Chu Lingxuan received a letter from Uncle Luo on the first day, saying that Mrs. Luo felt sorry for her daughter and wanted to go to persuade Chen personally, and asked Chu Lingxuan to go to Tangyuan to help persuade her. They were preparing to leave in early March, when the weather became warmer.

Mrs. Luo was sixty-seven years old and had been paralyzed in bed for more than ten years, yet she actually wanted to go there in person.

Chu Lingxuan was moved and distressed at the same time. Discussed with Chen Afu, "My grandma is going to Tangyuan, why don't you take the children with you? Old and young, so many people are trying to persuade her, my mother will be melted no matter how hard-hearted she is." Again He said, "Not now, wait until early March when the weather warms up."

From a mother who is nearly seventy years old to a grandson who is only a few months old, Liao Chen will definitely not be able to withstand this powerful medicine. If even this can't make her return to secular life, then she truly wants to be a Buddha, and there is no need to persuade her any more.

Chen Afu nodded in agreement and started preparing the children's things again.

Chu Lingxuan went to discuss with the old man again and asked them to leave at a later date.

On February 25th, Chu Lingxuan was not at home that night. Chen Afu took Brother Li and Xiao Zhuer into the space together. Jin Yanzi was going out again at midnight tonight.

Not to mention Jin Yanzi's excitement, Jin Bei was also extremely excited. Jinbei is a good sister. She is not a migratory bird, but she is afraid that her brother Jinbao will be lonely, so she always stays with her and never goes out alone.

Jin Yanzi was even more happy when she heard that Mommy and Daddy Chu would take all the children back to Fuyuan. She chirped and said, "Mommy, please bring Smelly Dabao with you again. Let's go back together and have a happy reunion. How nice. No." He is always missing something."
