As soon as Jiang Huaiqing left, the atmosphere in the Jiang family became depressing.

Although Chen didn't say anything, she sat in the garden all day in a daze, looking depressed.

Jiang Yuzhu said goodbye to her mother-in-law Shen, and took a few maids and the three daughters of the Su family back to her parents' home for a short stay, just to avoid Xie Zhao.

After she burst into tears in front of Xie Zhao that night, he always looked at her with doting eyes, which made Jiang Yuzhu extremely uncomfortable.

I don’t know when it started, but the couple went from being isolated from each other to having a common secret, and their relationship is closer than before.

Chen sat in the garden, looking at the dim sum served in the kitchen without any appetite. She said listlessly, "Yuzhu, it's been a few days. Has your second brother already walked hundreds of miles away?"

"almost."

Jiang Yuzhu estimated that the Mo family's team traveled day and night, stopping only for two or three hours a day to give the horses time to drink water, eat grass and rest.

Chen sighed and said, "Without your second brother running around, the house feels less lively."

As she spoke, Chen opened a travelogue of the north and quickly immersed herself in it.

The sun is setting and the light is dim.

Chen then closed the travelogue and stood up, vaguely remembering that tomorrow was the Ghost Festival.

"Your second brother left in a hurry this time, and mother didn't make many preparations. Tomorrow I'm going to Huguo Temple to burn incense and add some money for the incense, so I can ask a master to consecrate a pair of peace jade buckles."

According to travel notes, it started snowing in the middle and late ninth month of the lunar calendar in the northern part of Da Qi. The wind was bitingly cold and water froze into ice. The people hibernated and hardly ever left their homes.

In winter, we can hardly eat green leafy vegetables, and we can only survive on the cabbage and dried vegetables stored in summer and autumn.

"There's also a box of furs in my dowry. Later, you can help me pick out a few pieces, make a few more cloaks, and send them to the caravan."

Since Chen was thinking about making one for Jiang Huaiqing, she had to make one for her future daughter-in-law, Princess Yutan.

General Mo is Jiang Huaiqing's mentor, so naturally he cannot be left behind. Three of them have done it, so what else is left for the rest of the Mo family?

As long as there are enough furs, each person can make one.

"Your second brother knows some martial arts, but he relies on risking his life on the battlefield..."

Chen muttered a few words and couldn't help but worry.

Jiang Yuzhu understood her mother's feelings very well and comforted her, "Mom, didn't you ask the monk at Huguo Temple to tell your fortune before? The monk said you are a blessed person, and your descendants will be outstanding. Your daughter's blessings are all due to you!"

Persuasion failed, so he turned to fortune-telling.

As expected, Chen smiled after hearing this and said, "Of course, otherwise how could I have such a wonderful daughter like you?"

The whole family tried to persuade him for several days, but was finally defeated by metaphysics.

Chen's complexion regained its radiance, and she took her maid to tidy up the warehouse.

At dinner time, a table full of female relatives was sitting in the side hall.

Jiang Yuzhu sat in the main seat, her sister-in-law Xiao Chen and Zhao Fendie sat on the left, and the three sisters of the Su family sat on the right.

Little Chen took the initiative to pour a glass of fruit wine for Su Wanqing and said with a gentle smile: "If it weren't for Miss Su's help, I wouldn't be able to understand the account book!"

Su Wanqing was very frightened and quickly stood up to decline: "I'm not worthy of this title. If you don't mind, just call me Wanqing."

The Su family's case has not been rehabilitated yet, and the three sisters are still criminal slaves. Calling them by their maiden names is already the greatest respect they get.

"The Su family's case was entirely due to Madam Xie's righteous action, otherwise the entire family would have been guillotined long ago."

Su Wanqing smiled bitterly. She shouldn't have said this in such a good atmosphere.

Her parents and clan members were suffering in prison while her sisters were sitting at the table. She felt a strong sense of guilt.

Facing the gratitude of the three Su sisters, Jiang Yuzhu did not take credit for it: "Lord Su is innocent. How could he be wronged for no reason? I believe the emperor would not wrongly accuse a good man."

The emperor did cause some trouble by sending the three sisters to his mansion, but compared with the benefits, that little trouble was nothing.

Anyway, Xie Zhao contributed to the redress. The three sisters of the Su family each had their own strengths. After staying in Xie's house for a few days, they had helped to sort out the accounts of the past three years.

Jiang Yuzhu returned to her parents' home and specially called her three sisters to help.

In addition to account books, Su Wanqing is good at drawing. The jewelry drawings she draws are exquisite, and each one can be used for making patterns.

Jiang Yuzhu's jewelry shop is now open and will definitely make a lot of money.

During the meal, Jiang Yuzhu glanced at the sky and said, "Wanqing, after dinner, I'll ask someone to take you to the Dali Temple."

Xu Ping from the Dali Temple has always been at odds with the Jiang family.

It was not until Han Zhen's men were on duty that they had the opportunity to arrange a visit.

Jiang Yuzhu was afraid before and kept silent about it, but just now she received news from Han Zhen.

Su Wanqing's hand trembled as she raised the glass, spilling the wine onto the table. She trembled her lips, her eyes sparkling, "Mrs. Xie, is this true?"

The whole family was convicted and imprisoned in the Dali Temple for serious criminals. Su Wanqing never thought she would have the chance to visit her parents.

Jiang Yuzhu smiled slightly: "Why would I lie to you?"

"Everything inside and outside the Dali Temple has been arranged, but since you have to hide it from others, I have prepared men's clothes for you."

You can't bring too many conspicuous things when visiting a prisoner, just some buns, dried meat, etc.

Jiang Yuzhu and Han Zhen inquired about it and prepared everything one by one.

Su Wanqing took the men's clothes and looked at Jiang Yuzhu's calm and delicate face. She said in a serious voice, "Thank you, Madam. If the Su family ever makes a comeback, Wanqing will never let you down."

It was late at night and the back garden was silent, with only the occasional chirping of insects.

Jiang Yuzhu brought Su Wanqing to the corner gate of the mansion, where Han Zhen had been waiting for a long time.

As they rode away, a servant from the Jiang residence reported, "Miss, the son-in-law has arrived."

Jiang Yuzhu resisted internally, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why is he here?"
