Chapter 1184 The Silly Wife Was Tricked

When Concubine Jing and the Emperor arrived at the restaurant, everyone was already waiting there.

"Mother, please sit down!"

"Oh, okay."

Concubine Jing nodded and sat next to Qin Chuchu.

Seeing that everyone was there, Aunt Liu hurriedly invited everyone to start serving breakfast.

"Mother, this is your favorite tofu pudding."

Qin Chuchu tactfully brought a bowl of tofu pudding to Concubine Jing.

I didn't feel anything special after living here for a few days, but now I'm a little reluctant to leave.

"Okay." Concubine Jing took the tofu pudding but did not drink it. Instead, she sighed deeply.

"well…………"

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Qin Chuchu looked at the old woman in front of her curiously, wondering why she looked so unhappy.

Hearing her daughter-in-law ask this, Concubine Jing sighed again and held Qin Chuchu's hand again.

"Chu Chu! I'm afraid I won't be able to see you for a while when I go back this time. You must take good care of Yuner!"

After saying that, he wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes and his body twitched a little.

“………………”Han Muchen raised his eyebrows.

Looking at his mother's pretentious look, and then looking at his father who kept stealing glances at him from time to time, he didn't know what they were conspiring with.

But judging from the meaning, the target should be Chuchu.

Qin Chuchu was unaware of this, and seeing the old woman so sad, she quickly put down her chopsticks.

"Mother, if you want to come, you can come anytime."

Isn’t it just that you want to see your grandson? It’s not far, just a few days’ journey, and your legs are pretty nimble, so you can come whenever you want.

"Alas, it's not as easy as you say. You don't know how difficult the road from the capital is.

The ride was so bumpy, my mother's bones were almost broken."

As Concubine Jing spoke, she secretly glanced at her daughter-in-law's expression and organized her words in her mind.

“………………” Qin Chuchu didn’t say anything, her brows were furrowed.

What the old woman said was true. The road past Qingzhou Prefecture was extremely bumpy. The last time I went back, I almost had my brains bumped out.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law believed it, Concubine Jing pretended to be nonchalant again.

"It would be great if a highway could be built in the capital. Then the car ride wouldn't be so bumpy, and Mother could come here more often."

When Qin Chuchu heard the old woman say this, her eyes lit up and she said it without even thinking.

"That's easy, right? Just build a road and you'll be done."

The old lady’s idea is very good. If a highway is built, we won’t have to worry about the bumpy road when we return to the capital.

"Really?" Concubine Jing's face lit up with joy, and she looked at her daughter-in-law in front of her with anticipation.

"Of course it's true. If the highway is really built, my daughter-in-law's tools can be used."

Qin Chuchu nodded seriously. If the capital really wanted to build a road, she could sponsor some tools.

I'm free anyway, so I might as well contribute my part and be righteous in the future.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the old woman in front of him smiled happily.

"Hahaha...Chu Chu, you are so filial."

Concubine Jing held Qin Chuchu's hand curiously, and looked at the emperor beside her with excitement.

"Your Majesty, did you hear that? Chuchu is so filial that she wants to build a highway to the capital for me.

Then after the highway is completed, I can come to see Yuner more often!"

After saying that, he wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, looking extremely moved.

"Well, Princess Chen is thoughtful! In that case, I will instruct them when I return, and all the prefectures we pass through will definitely cooperate fully."

The emperor stroked his beard and said seriously.

But in his heart, he gave Xiaohua a thumbs up. Xiaohua was really capable. She solved the problem in just a few words.

“………………” Qin Chuchu was completely confused.

He stared blankly at the old woman and the emperor in front of him.

What the hell! Who said we were going to build a road?

She just wanted to sponsor some tools, and she didn't mention building roads!

But looking at the relieved looks on the emperor and the old woman's faces, I didn't know what to say.

She looked at the man beside her for help, hoping he could help her explain.

“………………”Han Muchen touched his nose and tried his best to cover the corners of his mouth.

When he looked at Chuchu, his cold face returned to its original state, as if to say, "This matter has nothing to do with me. Whoever agrees should do it."

He glanced at his mother and father again, and thought that it was his father who came up with this idea.

No wonder they were staying in the house for a long time and had even sent all the maids out. It turned out they were discussing how to plot against Chuchu.

He must have known that my income was considerable, so he wanted me to pay for the road construction.

It's his silly wife who might be cheated.

“………………” Qin Chuchu felt very embarrassed.

Seeing that the King of Hell had no intention of helping him, and looking at the happy faces of the old woman and the emperor, he didn't know what to say.

Concubine Jing acted as if she didn't notice her daughter-in-law's stunned look. She held her hand and smiled happily.

"Chu Chu, you really need to repair this road quickly, otherwise it will be too cold to work. Once you finish repairing it, Mother will be able to come here more often."

"Um, okay, I got it!" Qin Chuchu nodded mechanically and forced a smile.

Looking at its current state, if I don’t repair it, not only will the old lady be disappointed, but others will also think I’m unfilial.

There was no choice but to agree.

I feel extremely depressed. Why is he so rude? Why does he say that for no reason?

Seeing Chuchu unable to close her mouth as if she had eaten a fly, and not knowing what to say, the man could hardly hold back the smile on his face.

But the people in the room didn't find it funny. Instead, they all looked shocked.

Everyone looked at each other, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

If a highway is built along the thousands of miles of road from the capital to Qingzhou Prefecture, a huge amount of money would be needed.

Although we know that King Chen is very powerful, this move is too generous.

Even the queen was surprised. This little beast was so generous.

Even building those gravel roads is very expensive, and if they are really built into highways, it will cost a huge amount of money.

This time she got a good result in front of the emperor again. Seeing this vixen's smug look, I felt angry.

Concubine Jing was indeed a little bit cocky at this moment, and she was deliberately showing off to the Queen.

Who can help us show off? Our son and daughter-in-law are great!

Seeing the old woman so happy, Qin Chuchu's heart was bleeding and she started to think in her mind.

Labor costs, food costs, material costs, this is a lot of money, the more I think about it, the more my head hurts.

Looking at Chuchu's painful expression, you can tell what she is thinking.

Han Muchen could hardly contain the smile on his face. This time he was probably going to be in pain for a few days.

After receiving the affirmative answer from her daughter-in-law, Concubine Jing was so happy that she ate four big meat buns in a row.

But Qin Chuchu was depressed. The golden fried dough sticks looked quite appetizing.

Not only do I not want to eat now, but my stomach also feels full and I have completely lost my appetite.
