Once again, when she opened her eyes, she had transformed into the ancient foolish lady, Chen Feng.
Watching the hero who saves her, was as high and mighty as a god and also so handsome, Chen...
Chu Lingxuan's face flushed slightly, and he pinched her shoulders with his big hands, saying angrily, "Nonsense. The best thing I did in my life was to go to the border, and the luckiest thing was to marry you."
"Daddy, Mommy, you guys have been looking at the mirror for so long."
It’s Dabao’s voice.
They turned around and saw Dabao, Chu Hanyan and Li Xuan all there.
"Oh, mother is beautiful again." Chu Hanyan said excitedly, looking at Chen Afu with her big eyes without blinking.
Dabao corrected, "Sister is wrong, mother has always been so beautiful." He looked at Chen Afu with bright eyes. In his heart, mother has always been the most beautiful.
Chu Hanyan was an honest child who knew how to appreciate others. She felt that she should tell the truth to her mother, but it seemed that telling the truth was not pleasant, so she was a little conflicted.
Li Xuan didn't understand much, so he just followed and shouted, "Auntie, beautiful, beautiful."
Chen Afu and Chu Lingxuan both laughed.
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "You are both right."
Although little boy Chu Lingzhi was only seven years old, he was not allowed to enter Chen Afu's bedroom because he was his uncle.
He was very disappointed that his parents didn't come to celebrate his nephew's full moon. He missed them. He stood at the door and pouted, "If my sister-in-law had given birth to two sweet girls, my mother would have made time to come here no matter how busy she was, and would have taken one of the girls home to raise."
Almost everyone in this family was happy that Chen Ahfu had given birth to twins, but he was the only one who was unhappy. Because he knew that if his sister-in-law had given birth to a girl, his mother would definitely come to see them despite all difficulties and even take one away. If she had given birth to a boy, his mother might not come. It was true!
Chen Ahfu also knew that Mrs. Chu San preferred daughters to sons, so he went over and pinched Chu Lingzhi's chubby face with embarrassment. He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law also likes daughters, but it's a pity that she gave birth to a boy. Let's try to give birth to a daughter next time."
Chu Lingzhi smiled, revealing two small canine teeth, and said, "Okay, it's a deal. You still have to have two children. My mother will be embarrassed to snatch the child away if you have one, but she will snatch the child away if you have two."
This made Chen Afu laugh.
The arrival of the children made the room lively again. Chu Lingxuan went to the outer courtyard to receive the male guests.
The two young men were sleeping soundly. Nanny Li and a few maids weighed them. Chu Siyu weighed 9.6 jin and Chu Siming weighed 9 jin. They had grown so much in just one month, and Nanny Li was so happy that she narrowed her eyes.
The guests arrived one after another. After Chen Afu fed the two children, he, Mother Lin and Mother Jiang dressed them in red silk clothes, wrapped them in red quilts to look like red peppers, and took them out to meet the guests.
The two little brothers were praised by everyone. Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Jiang each held one and were reluctant to let go. They were not shy, nor did they cry or make a fuss. They even said "ah, oh, uh" to people and spit out a bubble of milk from time to time, which was very similar to the bubble gum in the past.
Mrs. Fu asked her third daughter-in-law, who had just become pregnant, to hold the baby and let her give birth to the baby. She said with a smile, "I don't expect you to give birth to two at once. As long as it's a big, beautiful boy like this, one will be enough."
Grandma Fu San blushed. She wanted to, too!
Everyone complimented Jiang again, saying that the news had spread everywhere, and that Lord Chen had made great contributions to the promotion of high-yield grains, and the emperor was very pleased and had a bright future.
Chen Afu smiled at Jiang and his eyelids twitched as he listened to the compliments. Who spread these words so widely that they reached a place a hundred miles away? This doesn't feel good...
Afterwards, the wet nurse carried the two asleep children to the front yard and let the male guests take a look at them.
When Old Marquis Chu saw the child, his eyes narrowed with smiles. He praised his great-grandson to the guests and said with a smile, "My eldest grandson's wife is a blessed one. Our whole family is satisfied with marrying her."
The guests naturally echoed.
The old man was still angry. He was angry at the second son's family for being ignorant and at Luo's in-laws for not giving him face.
Since the children were one month old, Chen Afu would take them out in the afternoon to bask in the sun and supplement calcium.
Chen Ahfu had already had two baby carriages made, with the two little ones lying in them, covered with thick cloth. Every afternoon, the main courtyard was the busiest. Chu Hanyan, Li Xuan, Qiqi, Huihui, and Zhuifeng's family all gathered around the baby carriages and looked inside. The old man would come when he wanted to see his grandson.
As long as they were not touched, the two little brothers would not be awakened by his (its) movements if they were asleep, and would not be scared to tears by him (it) if they were awake.
Chen Afu had to admit that these two guys were the toughest ones. They were very easy to lead and not annoying at all.
Normally it would be very cold at this time of year, but this year the weather was very warm. Especially in the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, the sky was cloudless, and even the wind had a hint of warmth. Even more strange was that the osmanthus flowers in the Guiyuan were blooming again.
This doesn't look like the weather at the beginning of winter; it's clearly autumn.
Thinking of the golden capsule, Chen Ahfu's heart became even more entangled. Although she had made all the preparations, she still didn't want to see that scene. How many people would die?
On the afternoon of the sixth day, Chen Afu was playing with his children when the red maple leaves at the Chen Mansion came again.
She was delighted and walked briskly. She bowed to Chen Ahfu and said, "Congratulations, auntie, you have a new little brother."
It turned out that Chen Shiying's father's concubine, Aunt Yu, had given birth to another son. He had a younger half brother, and Yu'er and Ming'er had an uncle who was younger than them.
Seeing Hong Feng so happy, Jiang must be really happy too. She always felt that the Chen family was too poor because she only had one son, and she hoped that her aunt could give birth to another son. This time, she finally got her wish. Before Chen Shiying went to the capital, he specially named the child, saying that if it was a boy, he would be named Chen Yuchao.
Hong Feng added, "Madam said that the master is still in the capital, and Dingzhou doesn't have many relatives. Chao'er's third-day bath will not be a big celebration. We can only invite the eldest aunt's family and the second young lady's future husband's family."
Chen Afu agreed with a smile and said he would definitely go.
Chu Lingxuan didn't come back that night. He came back the next night, and he came back very late.
At that time, Chen Afu was about to take the child into the space when he heard the voice of the maid outside greeting and Chu Lingxuan's hurried footsteps.
Chu Lingxuan walked in with a serious face, waved his hand to let the maid who followed him in to serve leave. He said to Chen Afu, "My father-in-law is in trouble."
Chen Ahfu was startled, walked over and pulled him to ask, "What happened to my father? Is my mother okay?"
Chu Lingxuan said, "It's not the father-in-law from the countryside, it's Chen... the father-in-law from Dingzhou Prefecture."
"What's wrong with him?" Chen Afu asked anxiously.
Chu Lingxuan said, "Today, my third uncle sent someone to deliver an urgent letter, saying that the emperor intends to make my father-in-law the Minister of Personnel..."
Chen Afu said happily, "The Minister of Personnel is very important. This is a good thing. The emperor should start paving the way for the ninth prince."
