Chapter 108 Singing Quietly



Chu Lingxuan looked at Chen Afu's back and was quite curious about this woman. She was a nymphomaniac before, but after she recovered from her illness, she became so beautiful and intelligent that it was hard to stop her. The small snacks she made were delicious, the buttons and clothes she made were unique and beautiful, and the dolls she made were even more innovative.

Although she has a son, she is still a 15-year-old girl. Why is she so attractive to children? She seems to understand Yan'er very well, and Yan'er likes her very much.

Especially that time, a normal girl would be embarrassed and confused after such an incident. But she was different, although she blushed, she was open and generous...

Chen Ahfu carried Chu Hanyan onto the largest carriage, and Chen Dabao was also carried up by Wei. The carriage was spacious and luxurious, with a small table, equivalent to the extended Rolls-Royce in the previous life. Then a pretty woman in her thirties came up. Wei said she was Song Mama, the new housekeeper around Yan Jie'er.

Mother Song also held a blue and white porcelain bowl filled with glutinous rice dates. She put the bowl on the table, picked up a date and fed it to Chu Hanyan with a smile, and then fed another to Dabao with a smile.

A good woman. Regardless of whether she was sincere or just for the sake of appearance, at least she didn't look down on Dabao.

Soon the carriage started moving. This kind of carriage seemed to have shock absorbers installed, so it ran very smoothly. Qiqi and Huihui stayed in the carriage for a while before they became impatient and flew out of the window into the sky, circling over the team's heads and flying forward.

Chu Hanyan crawled into Chen Afu's arms, smelling the scent on her shoulders. When the scent gradually disappeared, she raised her head and stared at Chen Afu blankly. She said sullenly, "The bird... flew away..."

If the smell on my shoulder doesn't attract her, I should communicate with her. The little girl is most interested in the golden swallow, so I'll start from this aspect.

Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "Yes, the bird flew away. It flew to the south. Sister Yan, do you remember? Aunt Chen told you that the bird was a little swallow, and its name was Jinbao. The little swallow would fly from the north to the south every autumn, because it was cold in the north and there were no insects for it to eat. When winter was over, spring came, the flowers bloomed, and the little insects it liked to eat came out, so it would fly back... Oh, Sister Yan smiled. Sister Yan liked the little swallow to fly back, and she also liked the beautiful flowers, right? Well, yes, all young ladies love beauty and like to look at beautiful flowers. Little swallows like them too, and Jinbao likes them even more..."

Chen Afu spoke slowly and softly to Chu Hanyan, like a gentle breeze.

Chu Hanyan's eyes were dull most of the time, but she would occasionally glance at Chen Afu, curl her lips to give him face, and even say "ah" a few times.

When Mother Song saw this, she whispered happily, "Look, my sister is smiling. She is so smart."

Chen Ahfu glanced at Mother Song, her voice was gentle, her eyes were filled with love, she was really a good housekeeper. She smiled and said, "Sister Yan is very smart. In the future, if Mother Song talks to Sister Yan more, she will smile at you and talk to you."

Mother Song and Mrs. Wei both smiled silently, thinking that they had said so much but couldn't even get a glance from their sister, let alone smile or talk to them.

Chu Hanyan seemed dissatisfied that Chen Afu no longer talked to her about birds, and she got a little tantrum and started crying twice with her mouth open.

Chen Ahfu smiled and quickly told Chu Hanyan about the little swallows and Jinbao. Chen Dabao also talked about his longing for Jinbao and said that if he saw so many little swallows in flowery clothes, he would be very happy.

Chu Hanyan looked at the swallow doll in her hand and said, "Bird... swallow... flowery clothes."

Chen Ahfu happily raised her hand holding the little swallow doll and said, "Oh, Sister Yan is so smart. She knew that this swallow is wearing a flowery dress. Yes, yes, this flowery dress was made by Aunt Chen. Sister, tell Aunt Chen what kind of flowery dress you like, and Aunt Chen will make it for it to wear."

Chen Dabao quickly said, "Sister Yan'er, my mother can sing the song 'Little Swallow in Flowery Clothes', it's very beautiful." He begged Chen Afu, "Mother, please sing it for Sister Yan'er, Sister Yan'er will definitely like it."

Chu Hanyan seemed to have no interest in Qu'er, nor did she seem to understand what Qu'er was. She looked at Chen Dabao blankly, then looked down at the Little Swallow doll in her hand.

Poor child, no one in that family must have ever sung to her, not even a lullaby.

However, Chen Ahfu still didn't sing. This was ancient times, how could she sing in a carriage? She deliberately put her index finger on her lips and said, "How can we sing here? Let's go back and sing quietly, only for Sister Yan and Dabao."

After hearing this, Chu Hanyan shook the little swallow doll in her hand and said, "Quiet... Quiet, bird, swallow, Jinbao, listen."

Chen Ahfu laughed and said, "Yes, Sister Yan is so nice. She even remembered to sing it to Jinbao. Aunt Chen almost forgot about it. Jinbao also likes to listen to Aunt Chen singing..."

Chu Lingxuan rode a horse and followed behind the carriage. Although his lips were pursed, the corners of his lips were slightly raised. Hearing Chen Afu say that he couldn't sing, he felt a little disappointed. The voice was not crisp, but it was very beautiful. I wonder what the song he sang would be like. Would it be as gentle as her voice, like the breeze blowing past the ears, soothing and comfortable?

Unfortunately, she has to "sing quietly".

However, Chu Lingxuan was very happy with his decision. Chen's wife gave Yan'er a job as a "sewing master", and Yan'er would definitely be much happier.

After noon, the group arrived at Guanghe Town and went directly to Guanghe Restaurant in the town. The Chu family seemed to eat here often. When the shopkeeper saw them coming, he hurried out to greet them and led Chu Lingxuan to a private room. The other servants were eating in the lobby. There were four tables, three for men and one for women. The Chu family had sent people here first, and the food was already on the table.

Mother Song wanted to carry Chu Hanyan into the private room, but Chu Hanyan held Chen Afu's neck and refused to let go. Mother Song had no choice but to let Chen Afu carry Chu Hanyan to the private room.

In his heart, Chen Ahfu didn't want to have too much contact with the "hero". He was really embarrassed the day he came here, and Miss Chu embarrassed him last time. Besides, this person was cold and serious to everyone except Miss Chu.

She whispered in Chu Hanyan's ear, "Be good, sister. Go eat with Mother Song, and then play with Aunt Chen after dinner."

Chu Hanyan wouldn't listen to reason, she just pouted and started crying.

Chu Lingxuan, who was walking in front, stopped, turned around and said, "Master Chen, please take me to the private room to eat, and Dabao should come too." He paused and said, "Uncle Luo has already told me that you are going to do something. It's okay, when I take a break, you can go with Uncle Luo to do it, and we will wait for you here."

Although his voice was still cold, his facial expression didn't seem as grim as before.
