He and the prince were arranged to live with Yu Ge'er in the east wing of the fourth entrance. He was not very willing, and especially wanted to live in his mother's warm room like before. He pulled Chen Afu's sleeve and whispered, "Mother-in-law, it's rare for me to live here. Can we live like when we were children?"

Chen Ahfu laughed quietly and said, "What are you calling me now?"

The prince choked and blushed. He now called her mother-in-law, and it was not appropriate for a son-in-law to live in his mother-in-law's room, so he had to go to the fourth courtyard obediently.

The next day, Chen Afu got up early. Chu Lingxuan stayed in the outer courtyard last night.

She had Prince He and Chu Hanyan woke up, as they were going to see someone off. She personally carried the sleeping Yu Ge'er to the room, woke him up, dressed him, had breakfast, and gave him some instructions.

Tell him to respect his grandfather and great grandfather, as well as his grandmother and grandfather, and not to be naughty. The most important thing is to show respect to grandma more often, say sweet words to her, and treat her like Xiaoyuer treats his grandfather...

Yu Ge'er is very manly and doesn't agree with some of his mother's views. He said, "You should be filial and sweet-mouthed, don't learn from your sister, be clingy and shy..."

Chen Afu smiled and glanced at the unaware Prince He. At the beginning, his ability to pester him was no worse than Xiao Yuer's ability to pester her grandfather.

After dinner, Chen Afu led Prince He, Chu Hanyan, Yu Ge'er, Zhuifeng and Sasa to the front yard. After they got in the car, Yu Ge'er's crying could be heard. He realized now that compared to going out to play, he was more reluctant to leave his mother, father, brothers and sisters, but it was too late.

Chen Ahfu's tears welled up. In the dim light, he saw two birds catch up with the carriage and circle over it. They were Huihui and Qiqi.

They returned to the countryside, and from then on they had to follow people or Jinbao back home. It was such a long way, and they couldn't find their way back by themselves. Since Jinbao had Jinbei, he spent most of his time outside, and he ran a lot.

On this day, Xiaoyuer and Minggeer cried for a long time and no matter how they were comforted, it didn't work. Especially Xiaoyuer, her voice was hoarse from crying and she was sweating all over.

Chen Ahfu was distressed and angry, and shouted that he would spank their little butts. It was only when the Third Madam came over and took the two children and Chu Hanyan to Xijinhou Mansion to play, saying that they were going to see the new home of the Third Grandpa, that they stopped crying.

Xijinhou Mansion is not far from Yong'anhou Mansion, just across the street. It takes more than a quarter of an hour to walk there, and only half a quarter of an hour by carriage.

On May 18th, the third branch officially moved to the Xijinhou Mansion.

The Third Lady had already prepared Chu Lin and Chu Bi's dowries, but she didn't dare to send them to the Second Wife's house, fearing that the shameless Li would secretly use them for other purposes. She decided to keep them in Yong'an Marquis's Mansion first and send them there before they got married.

Chen Ahfu really couldn't bear to leave the third family. The third master, the third lady, Chu Lingwei, Chu Lingzhi, these people got along with Chen Ahfu and his family like a family.

Before the Third Lady left, she said to Chen Afu, "Leave Mingheyuan to me first. When you are about to give birth, I will come back to accompany you."

Chen Ahfu touched her flat belly, and was particularly afraid that this pregnancy would be a girl. She was really reluctant to give the child to the third wife to raise. If they had not moved away, it would be okay, as they were close. But after they moved away, even though the two families were not far away, it was impossible for them to see each other every day.

Chu Lingwei is already fifteen years old, and he will be able to marry in a few years. The Third Madam will not be so concerned about the girl in her belly now that she has her own daughter-in-law.

Of course Chen Ahfu didn't dare to speak his mind, and said with a smile, "I will keep Mingheyuan for Aunt San, and you can come and live here anytime."

Today, Chu Lingxuan had to go to the government office, Chu Lingwei was in the Imperial College, and Chu Lingzhi was in school. Only Chen Afu took the three children to send the third master and the third lady to the Xijinhou Mansion.

Today we had the first meal at Xijin Marquis' Mansion. In addition to inviting Chen Afu's family, we also invited Prince Rui's family, the prince, Princess Rongjing, the Xie family, the Chen Shiying family, and the subordinates of the three masters of the two families.

Today is a small-scale banquet, but on the 20th, a large-scale banquet will be held. The Third Master and the Third Lady are generous and outgoing, and are well-liked by the current emperor, the late emperor, and the late Empress Dowager. They have many friends and confidants, and most of the royal relatives and aristocratic families in the capital will come to congratulate them.

The gift Chen Afu gave today was four large jars of wine with added ingredients.

Seeing such a shabby gift, Chu Hanyan felt a little embarrassed. She said, "Mother, in the past, our family gave gifts of gold and jade utensils, embroidery, brocade, and the four treasures of the study. Even when we gave wine, we gave famous wines such as the blue and white wine bought from outside. How could we give Third Grandpa the wine we brewed ourselves? It doesn't look very good."

Chen Ahfu smiled. The little girl often learned housekeeping from her, and it was very useful. She smiled and said, "This wine is a good thing. It contains rare medicinal herbs. It was specifically requested by your third grandmother."

The Third Lady's original words were, "I know you have a close relationship with Master Wuzhi, and he has given you a lot of good things. Don't keep any of them to yourself. Give me a few jars of your old cellar with good medicines. My master likes to drink it the most. I want the mother and child, in a large jar."

The third lady knew what was good, and knew that these wines were much better than those gold, silver and jewelry. When she saw Chen Ahfu had four jars of wine loaded onto the carriage, she smiled so hard that her teeth were exposed.

The Third Master also knew that the wine was good, and he laughed and praised the Third Madam, "Madam is still wise."

Chen Ahfu was helpless. This couple was always like this, when someone gave something to them, they would always be grateful to each other.

The third lady entertained the female guests in the flower hall.

Because there were people from the Xie and Chen families, everyone was concerned about how Fifth Master Xie would perform in the palace examination this year.

The imperial examination was supposed to be held in February this year, but because the emperor and the late Empress Dowager were still in mourning at that time, it was postponed to early April. The palace examination was held on May 15th, and the results were announced today.

Master Xie Wu lived up to everyone's expectations and ranked 189th in the imperial examination. Although the ranking was low, it was a rare good result for a noble family. He also benefited from Chen Shiying's guidance, otherwise he might not have done so well. With this result, he is most likely to be in the top three, but if he performs exceptionally well in the palace examination, he may also be in the second place. Both the Xie family and the Chen family are very anxious, hoping that he can perform well in the palace examination and be in the second place. After all, the treatment of the second and third place is very different.

Because of the special situation of the Xie family today, only Chu Hua and her mother and son came, and everyone else was waiting for news at home.

Jiang brought Chen Yuqing, Chen Yuxia, and Chao Ge'er with her. They appeared calm on the surface, but they were extremely anxious in their hearts.

Around noon, someone came to report that Master Xie Wu had ranked 146th in the second class of the exam and was awarded the status of Jinshi.

Immediately, there was a burst of congratulations in the hall. Jiang was so excited that she cried, and Chen Yuqing was also very excited.

Chu Hua also thanked Jiang on behalf of Xie Feng and thanked Mr. Chen for his guidance.

Madam Chu San smiled at Jiang and said, "In the future, I will ask Master Chen to give more guidance to my brother Zhi."

Perhaps Chu Lingzhi benefited from Yan Chenxiang since childhood, and his academic performance was very good. Later, Chu Lingwei would inherit the title and join the army, while Chu Lingzhi would take the imperial examination.
