Chu Lingxuan said that he would persuade A-Lu again tomorrow. If he let his brother-in-law move out, he would not be able to face his father-in-law and mother-in-law in the future.
Chen Afu then expressed her idea, saying that she would clean up the house and let A Lu have more contact with Atang, Lan Ge'er, and Mu Ge'er, and then let him move in later.
Chu Lingxuan nodded and said, "I'll ask around. In addition to these children, I can find some other children of the same age to introduce to A-Lu."
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "Of course this is better. Our children are too young, and Ah Lu can't play with them."
Chu Lingxuan stroked Chen Ahfu's big belly with great heartache, and said, "It's all my fault. I let you suffer so much with a big belly." He stared at the big belly and said, "It's only been a few days, and your belly has grown a lot."
Chen Ahfu laughed and said, "Yes, I also feel that my belly has been growing rapidly these days, much faster than before." Seeing that his belly was bulging again, he said happily, "Look, it's moving, it's moving again."
Chu Lingxuan also watched with joy, and stroked the moving little bag with his big hand, saying with a smile, "Son likes boxing, I will teach you when you come out."
After the fetal movement stopped, Chu Lingxuan helped Chen Afu lie on her side on the bed and massaged her. He massaged her shoulders, back, legs, feet, from top to bottom, bit by bit, with the right amount of pressure, making Chen Afu feel very comfortable. She closed her eyes and spoke softly to Chu Lingxuan. These days, whenever Chu Lingxuan had time, he would massage her like this.
After they finished talking about the family affairs, Chu Lingxuan told Chen Afu that there was news in Yucheng and Yongcheng, and two witnesses and some evidence had been found. They had been strictly protected and would find a way to bring them here. In order to prevent Wang Guojiu and his party from noticing, for Wang Cheng's safety, they would send their family to a very secret place tomorrow morning. They would only let them live openly after the matter was fully revealed.
Chen Ahfu was startled, turned around and complained, "No matter what, you should let me meet my uncle and his family. How can I explain to my mother that you hid them away without telling anyone?" He asked unhappily, "No, I want to meet them tomorrow."
Chen Ahfu's movements were so big that Chu Lingxuan's face turned pale. He first looked at her big belly, then her face, and then looked down. Seeing that she was normal, he felt relieved.
He said angrily, "Stomach! Don't be so reckless next time."
Chen Ahfu blushed when he looked at her, and said angrily, "Where are you looking? I'm talking to you."
Chu Lingxuan said seriously, "This is not a joke, don't let your emotions get in the way. Don't worry, they are fine except that they don't have much freedom. Your uncle is also my uncle, I won't let them down." He added, "I will write another letter to my parents-in-law in the countryside tomorrow, just saying that my uncle and his family are in trouble and I am protecting them." He added solemnly, "Remember my words, don't be as reckless as you were just now, and don't make big moves."
Chen Ahfu was also a little scared and said, "Okay, okay, never again."
Seeing that Chu Lingxuan didn't want to talk more about Wang Cheng, she didn't ask more.
The two of them were lying on the bed with heavy hearts. It had been twenty-one days since Jin Yanzi left, and there was still no news. As long as they didn't get the lucky bag from Master Wuzhi, they would not be able to rest.
Chen Afu was even more anxious. The Golden Swallow had to hibernate in the space before the fifth of next month. There were still fourteen days left. Could it find it? At the same time, he was also very worried about the Golden Swallow, always afraid that it would encounter some trouble.
In the midst of anxiety, the day slipped to the 28th. Hong Feng was sent by Jiang to deliver a letter to Chen Afu. July 30th was the 53rd birthday of old lady Chen. If Chen Afu was not in Dingzhou, she would not have come to invite her. But she was in Dingzhou Prefecture, and it would be bad not to invite her.
The Chen and He families have already set the wedding date for He Linsheng and Chen Yuhui on March 20th of next year. Because the marriage was arranged under such circumstances, the reputation was not very good, so the wedding date was set a little hastily.
Since the engagement, Chen Yuhui seemed to be back to normal. She had a smile on her face, went to pay respects to Jiang and the old lady every day, and even embroidered her dowry in her free time.
Chen Shiying and Jiang felt that the alarm about Chen Yuhui wanting to be Chu Lingxuan's concubine had been lifted, and they could also invite their eldest daughter and her family to go back to her parents' home for a day.
Hong Feng said that several relatives from the Chen family came to the party, and at the request of the old lady, some people from her natal family were also invited. At the same time, many families who had a good relationship with the Chen family were also invited that day.
Chen Ahfu would not go back to celebrate the birthday of that old woman, and he would have to kowtow to celebrate her birthday. No matter how soft his knees were, he could not kneel before that evil woman with a black heart.
However, this society is a society of foolish filial piety. If she does not go to celebrate her grandmother's birthday, and the old lady instigates her in public, it will be bad for her reputation.
She thought about it, then smiled and agreed, saying that she would go tomorrow.
After seeing Hong Feng off, Miss Chu, whose face was red with excitement, asked, "Mom, are we going to Grandpa's house for a birthday banquet the day after tomorrow?"
She was particularly happy on these two visits to other people's homes. She thought she was going to visit someone again and was extremely happy.
Chen Ahfu shook his head and said, "Not the day after tomorrow. Mother is not feeling well."
The little girl was very puzzled and pouted, because her mother had clearly agreed to be the guest just now.
On the morning of the 30th, Chu Lingxuan was sent away. Chen Afu waited until the hour of Si, and then sent someone to deliver a message to the Chen residence, saying that the grandmother had gone out, and suddenly felt a stomachache, her legs were shaking, and she was helped to rest on the bed, and then went to Qianjin Hall to ask for a doctor. The master received news in the morning that there was an emergency in the camp, so he hurried to the camp. Today, the master and the grandmother could not go to celebrate the old lady's birthday. When the grandmother is better, she will definitely go to congratulate her with a heavy gift.
Seeing the regretful look in Miss Chu's eyes, Chen Ahfu pinched her face and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll take you back to grandma's house to play some other day."
The little girl became happy again.
About an hour later, Jiang sent someone to visit Chen Ahfu again. Chen Ahfu was lying on the bed pretending to be asleep, and Li Ma Ma came forward to thank the man for his kindness, saying that the doctor had taken her pulse and that the eldest lady was fine, but she was tired these days and needed to stay in bed and rest more.
On August 2, Jin Yanzi had not returned yet, and Chen Afu was extremely anxious.
The Qin family hosted a dinner party that day. In the morning, the women from the Chu, Fu, and Liu families took the girls and the boys who didn't go to school to play at the Qin family. In the evening, the men and boys went to his house for dinner after they got off work.
This time, Qin Mu wrote a post with Chen A-lu's name on it, and asked the person who sent the post to tell Chen A-fu that he must invite Chen A-lu to come, so that the two of them could discuss knowledge and benefit from it together. In the future, he would also help A-lu make more friends.
Chen A-lu was very happy to hear this and agreed to go with Dabao after school in the afternoon.
Chen Afu suppressed his anxious thoughts and took the children to play at the animal house for a day.
On the third day, Chen Afu felt uncomfortable staying at home and thought about going to the Chen Mansion.
