Chapter 72 Don't worry, he didn't see it

There is no rule of not talking while eating or sleeping in the Jiang family, and everyone sits at the table for dinner.

Jiang Fulu looked around and couldn't help but sigh: "If Yuzhu comes back, our family will be truly reunited."

What's the saying that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled? Jiang Fulu doesn't acknowledge her because she is his treasure!

As soon as Jiang Fulu took the first bite, Jiang Huaiqing's chopsticks reached straight for the fat koi.

His two closest friends were killed in such a tragic way by his father.

In order to get revenge, Jiang Huaiqing must eat it back!

"Mom, why is there one missing?"

After Jiang Huaiqing picked up his chopsticks, he found that the number was wrong.

Chen's eyelids twitched. She signaled the maid to serve the fish to Jiang Fulu and Xie Zhao, and then said, "The cook said you went to the kitchen to praise the delicious fish..."

Jiang Huaiqing nodded, that was true.

"Since the cook did a good job, I'll ask Yuanhe to bring one back for your sister later."

When talking about her daughter, Chen's expression softened and she spoke very naturally.

Jiang Huaiqing looked at the fish meat in the distance, feeling quite disappointed. He planned to go to Xie's house in the next two days and catch a few more fat koi, enough for him!

Jiang Fulu glared at his useless second son and said to Xie Zhao, "My dear son-in-law, I have disliked Wei Laogou for a long time because he pretends to be noble. Today I am so happy!"

Censor Lu told him that all the censors in the court were instructed by Prime Minister Wei to report him at any time.

Jiang Fulu was kept in the dark and had always respected Prime Minister Wei.

"Now it seems that the Wei family likes to do things secretly because it is a family tradition. They bully my Yuzhu because she is a weak woman. How can this be tolerated?"

Jiang Fulu was thinking of a way to fight back.

Before, Xie Zhao had always been close to Wei Shoufu, but suddenly he sided with him. Jiang Fulu did not trust this son-in-law very much.

Could it be that Xie Zhao is a spy sent by Prime Minister Wei?

Jiang Fulu's eyes flashed, and he decided to observe from the side first. Xie Zhao was nominally his son-in-law, and if he divorced Yuzhu, the two families would no longer have any connection.

Thinking of this, Jiang Fulu felt much calmer.

Thinking of the important things to do in the evening, Jiang Fulu began to perfunctorily say: "My dear son-in-law, Yuzhu was brought up in pampering, and she is a bit willful. Please be more tolerant."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Fulu felt the cold hostility coming from all directions. He couldn't help but blow his beard and wink at his wife Chen.

Jiang Fulu was just pretending to test him in order to distinguish between friend and foe; he was not sincere.

If Xie Zhao dared to agree, there was a feather duster in the corner and the whole family would join in the fight.

Daughter, only he can say this, no one else can!

Chen put down her chopsticks and let out a sigh of relief.

The scene suddenly froze. Xie Zhao sensed the strange and silent atmosphere and replied, "Yuzhu is fine."

After more than three years of marriage, Xie Zhao was busy with government affairs day and night, leaving Jiang Yuzhu alone at home.

The mansion was well organized, the maids and servants each performed their duties, and there were few disputes.

Marrying a wife like this will save you a lot of worries and she can be regarded as a good wife.

As for her reputation, Jiang Yuzhu has been smeared, which is really unfair.

Xie Zhao spoke up for Jiang Yuzhu, and the Jiang family stopped being hypocritical and became much more enthusiastic.

After the meal, Chen packed a food box, which contained fish and some snacks, and asked Xie Zhao to take it back to Xie's house.

At noon, Shen sent such a large betrothal gift, which made the Jiang family proud, and Chen also had to return the gift to express her gratitude.

"Wait for me to send you an invitation in the next two days, and invite you to stay at the Jiang family's villa for a while."

Since Shen is here, Jiang Yuzhu will definitely follow her, and Chen can see her daughter again.

Just as Chen was about to walk back, Jiang Huaiqing suddenly appeared from under the tree and asked, "Yuanhe, can I have a word with you?"

As the wedding day draws closer, Jiang Huaiqing feels more and more uneasy.

At least, you have to get through the wedding night first, right?

Jiang Huaiqing looked very unnatural. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing where to start.

Seeing this, Chen took her maid and left first.

After walking for a distance, Chen stopped and turned back.

The maid asked in confusion, "Madam, the second young master has something important to discuss with the son-in-law. Is it not a good idea for us to go over there?"

There seems to be suspicion of eavesdropping.

Chen raised her eyelids and said calmly, "I gave birth to the second child, how could I not understand him?"

During the meal, Jiang Huaiqing kept staring at the only dish of fish and sighed.

"The second brother stopped Yuanhe, maybe he wanted to take the fish left for Yuzhu for himself!"

The Jiang family’s cook is weak at cooking fish, but she rarely lets anyone down. Chen has to protect the last fat koi.

When they got close and hid, they heard Jiang Huaiqing asking Xie Zhao for advice: "If I had drunk more that day, could I have gotten away with it at the critical moment?"

Jiang Huaiqing learned that Princess Yutan was extremely tough, and felt humiliated at the thought of being pinned down and abused by her.

Xie Zhao heard the noise in the corner, his face was embarrassed, and he pretended to persuade: "Second brother, you and Princess Yutan are married by the emperor. If outsiders hear you complain, it will inevitably be regarded as disrespectful to the emperor."

"How dare I be dissatisfied with the emperor?"

There were some things that Jiang Huaiqing found difficult to say, "Yuanhe, you and my little sister..."

Xie Zhao's eyes darkened. His mother-in-law was hiding beside the flower bed. Did Jiang Huaiqing want to harm him?

"Second brother, this cannot be blamed on the emperor, and even less on my father-in-law and mother-in-law. If you weren't so playful, wouldn't you have gotten rid of Princess Yu Tan earlier if you got married?"

In the corner, Chen was very satisfied with Xie Zhao's words, he was simply her mouthpiece.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Huaiqing was not someone to be trifled with. Unable to gain any useful experience, he turned hostile and retorted, "Yuanhe, you and my younger sister got married a long time ago, so aren't you also being missed by Wei Jing?"

After all, Jiang Huaiqing was granted marriage to be a cannon fodder.

Since they had nothing to say, Jiang Huaiqing turned around and left.

The maid asked curiously, "Madam, why didn't you rush out and beat up the Second Young Master right away?"

Chen snorted coldly: "Doesn't your wife know the principle of alerting the snake?"

If she hadn't turned back and eavesdropped, Chen would not have known that her second son had such a big idea.

The Emperor has granted the marriage, but Jiang Huaiqing still wants to commit fraud. This is simply treason!

Chen was furious, but she calmed down after returning to her room. She went to the warehouse to select materials: "Prepare a few more feather dusters, just in case."

With Jiang Huaiqing's aggressive personality, it's not unfair for him to be beaten three times a day!

The maids and old women couldn't bear it and pleaded for the second young master.

Chen showed a trace of sadness and said, "Do you think I am a cruel mother who doesn't consider my son?"

How could Chen not feel sorry for the flesh that fell off her body?

She loves her daughter the most, but she also loves her son.

"If I don't prepare a few more feather dusters, what if the second brother offends the princess and she takes up arms and goes into battle?"

For the sake of family harmony, Jiang Huaiqing could not avoid being beaten.

"It's hard for parents to treat their children equally, so they have to treat their daughter-in-law fairly. Only by treating their daughter-in-law well can the Jiang family become better."

Chen thought that Princess Yutan was not a spoiled and unreasonable person. As long as she, as the mother-in-law, stopped causing trouble and thought more about her daughter-in-law, the Jiang family would still love each other and be as harmonious as before.

As night fell, a dim lantern was hung every few meters on the small path of the Jiang Mansion.

Xie Zhao came to the back door and suddenly heard a rustling sound at the door.

Several servants sneaked up on Jiang's servants and asked, "Has Master Xie left?"

As long as Xie Zhao didn't leave, they didn't dare to enter the mansion for fear of being discovered.

"Our son-in-law just left. Don't worry, he didn't see it."

The servant of the Jiang residence was confident and led the way in front while urging, "Hurry up, our master is waiting anxiously."

Xie Zhao paused, then dodged into the flowers, his eyes slightly narrowed.

The Jiang family opened the corner gate at night to receive people, and they were secretive and afraid that he would find out. What shameful things were they doing?
