Chapter 444 Return
The day before returning to Shunhe County, Zhang Juexia asked Lin Yuan to accompany him and bought a lot of gifts, ready to take them home and share them with everyone.
Old Madam Shen also sent some gifts over.
What Zhang Juexia didn't expect was that a happy reply also arrived.
After reading the happy letter, her mood became even better.
Li Yingyue was in a similar situation. She received a gift from Old Madam Shen and also bought a carriage of gifts for herself, preparing to take them home to give to others.
"Sister, I was so busy with business that I never thought about these little things."
Zhang Juexia told Li Yingyue, "This kind of thing is not a big deal, but it's not a small deal either. After all, we have come to this place and stayed here for a few days.
For those who have never been here, they will definitely have a lot of fantasies in their hearts, so bring some gifts back to make them happy too."
"Well, I'll do the same from now on."
As the two were chatting, a waiter came in and reported that a lady who claimed to be Chen Lingchuan's mother wanted to see Li Yingyue.
Li Yingyue immediately stood up and was about to rush out.
Zhang Juexia grabbed her and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Although she is Shen Lingchuan's biological mother, you haven't gotten married yet!
Even if you get married, you don't have to be so nervous.
Go, listen to me, clean yourself up first and dress neatly.
Then, go see her again.”
Zhang Juexia asked the waiter to take Liu Yaqin to the guest room and treated her with good tea and snacks.
After Li Yingyue had packed up, Zhang Juexia accompanied Li Yingyue to meet Liu Yaqin.
Liu Yaqin recognized Li Yingyue by her clothes. She looked at Li Yingyue carefully and nodded with satisfaction.
Afterwards, she greeted Zhang Juexia, and Zhang Juexia and Li Yingyue bowed respectfully to Liu Yaqin.
Liu Yaqin quickly asked the little girl beside her to help them up.
After Zhang Juexia and Li Yingyue sat down, Liu Yaqin began to pant. Li Yingyue quickly stood up and poured her a glass of water and handed it to her.
Liu Yaqin looked at Li Yingyue gratefully and felt even more satisfied with her.
After Liu Yaqin regained her breath, she began to speak slowly, "I've always wanted to come and see you, but my body is useless.
The weather is pretty good today, so I forced myself to come here.
Chuan'er has someone bring back some specialties from Qingfeng City. Take them with you when you return to Shunhe County."
"You're welcome."
"It's not a valuable thing, but it's a token of our appreciation!
Please be careful on your way back."
Liu Yaqin gave a few instructions, and then was supported by the maid beside her and got into the carriage shakily.
Before getting in the car, she held Li Yingyue's hand and said, "Good boy, come back soon!"
After Liu Yaqin left, Li Yingyue was still in a daze.
Zhang Juexia patted her, “Does it feel like a dream? To be honest, after meeting Shen Lingchuan’s mother, I feel that your marriage is a good one.”
"Why?"
"Look at Shen Lingchuan's mother. She gasps for air after just a few words. If you and your mother-in-law quarrel, you will definitely not be able to start a quarrel with this posture."
Li Yingyue forced a smile, "That's right! Sister, I feel like his mother won't be able to see us get married if she's in this state!"
"That shouldn't be the case! I heard from the old lady that his mother has been like this for many years.
The main reason is that this is our first time meeting. If we meet more often, we will probably get used to it.”
"Well, sister, when we return to Shunhe County, can you please ask Doctor Liu if he can cure her disease?"
"Why? You haven't even gotten married yet, and you're already sharing your husband's worries.
Doctor Liu is good at setting bones. I don't know if he can cure this disease, but he has many fellow apprentices, so I'll ask him when the time comes."
"Thank you, sister."
Li Yingyue was still worried. It was not until the boy who escorted Liu Yaqin home came to report that he had sent Liu Yaqin home safely that Li Yingyue felt relieved.
The old shopkeeper came to report that the Shen's Grocery Store, which he had asked someone to inquire about, had an excellent reputation in Qingfeng City and was honest and trustworthy.
Anyone who lives in Qingfeng City and wants to buy some household items will think of Shen’s Grocery Store first.
The old shopkeeper also told Li Yingyue about what he had heard about Chen Lingchuan, "This young master is not the kind of nerd who only knows how to study. He also helps manage this grocery store on weekdays.
The grocery store was doing well, and I sold quite a bit of stuff during the time I was there."
Hearing this, Li Yingyue felt relieved.
On the way back, Li Yingyue drove the carriage for most of the journey, and only gave up the whip when they were almost reaching Shunhe County.
She found a chance and told Zhang Juexia what the old shopkeeper had said.
Zhang Juexia was naturally happy for her, "That's good now. Now that you're back in Shunhe County, you can rest assured and wait for your marriage!"
"Sister, tell me, if I marry Chen Lingchuan, will he still let me show my face in public?"
"Don't ask me about this, you should ask him. No, you didn't ask him about such an important matter?"
Li Yingyue looked up at the sky and replied blankly, "I forgot to ask."
"When he comes to propose marriage, you must ask him about it when you have time. This is a big deal.
You know, with such a good business mind like yours, it would be a shame if he kept you at home, taking care of the husband and children."
"I see."
"This fate is so wonderful, when we went to Qingfeng City, you were still single.
It's only been a few days since we returned to Shunhe County, and you're already taken."
“I don’t know what my family will feel when they hear that Shen Lingchuan is here to propose marriage?”
"They will definitely be very satisfied, don't worry!"
Li Yingyue turned around and smiled.
The two sisters didn't speak along the way. Zhang Juexia was eager to go home, while Li Yingyue seemed to be worried.
After entering Shunhe County, they went back to their homes.
Ye Beixiu had already received Zhang Juexia's letter. Knowing that she would be back today, he specially came back from the Shen Mansion a little earlier.
When he heard the voices outside, he hurried to the front and caught Zhang Juexia when he jumped off the carriage.
"Husband!"
"My wife, you miss your husband so much."
Ye Beixiu did not let go and carried Zhang Juexia to their yard.
"Oh, there are still a lot of things in the carriage!"
"Just let Lin Yuan settle down."
"How would he know what these things are used for? Put me down now."
Ye Beixiu didn't say anything, lowered his head and put his lips close to Zhang Juexia's mouth, blocking her mouth, "My wife, you said in the letter that you missed me.
I'm tired, now that I'm home, I'll take a good rest!"
Zhang Juexia accepted her fate. She stopped struggling and let Ye Beixiu carry her to the bed.
"You lie down first. I'll go out and check on your things. I'll also have someone prepare some hot water. You'll feel better after taking a hot bath."
