The little person appeared in front of Chen Ahfu from time to time, and she covered her face and cried. As she was crying, Jin Yanzi appeared in her mind. It also cried with its little pointed mouth open, and said, "I can't bear to leave Chou Dabao. Life without Chou Dabao is so boring..."
Nanny Li's voice came from outside the door, "Grandma, the water is getting cold, please don't let it get cold."
Chen Ahfu wiped away her tears and calmed down. She still had to live her life...
She also felt that, from another perspective, she should be happy for Dabao. He grew up safely among the people, and although he suffered a lot, he always survived. Moreover, he also developed many good qualities and habits.
If he returns at this time, his brother has been named the crown prince, his biological mother has been named the virtuous concubine, the second prince has fled to Nanzhong Province, and Queen Wang is busy with her own affairs, so no one should dare to hurt him. When he is named the king in the future, he will be rich and prosperous even if he does nothing in his life.
Having experienced hardships in the past, he knows more about the sufferings of the people and will cherish the present happiness more. I hope that when he grows up, he can advise the prince and do more good things for the people.
As for the mother-son relationship between him and me, it has only been so many years. I will keep this mother-son relationship in my heart and bless him silently.
If the virtuous concubine is generous, it would be better, and she can spend more time with Xiaoyi in the future. If the virtuous concubine is stingy, it is better to keep a certain distance.
However, she, Miss Chu, and the two brothers still had to slowly get used to the days without Dabao. Of course, there were also Wang, Chen Ming, and A Lu who were far away in Dingzhou Prefecture.
At the same time, Xiaoyi also has to get used to life without them. Will it be more difficult for him to adapt?
In the evening, Miss Chu was still sad. Chen Afu coaxed her for a while and took her, Yu Ge'er and Ming Ge'er to Anrong Hall for a welcoming banquet.
In fact, she didn't want to go at all, but Chu Lingxuan sent Xiao Shiyi to the palace, so she had to cheer up and go.
The welcoming banquet was rather dull because Lord Chu, Lord Chu San, and Lord Chu Lingxuan were all absent.
Second Madam Li saw that Chen Afu and Chu Hanyan both had red and swollen eyes and were obviously in a bad mood, and she was secretly happy. She thought that Chu Lingxuan and Chen Afu must have done something that made the old man or Lord Chu unhappy and were scolded.
Seeing Chu Ling'an's curious eyes, and the expression of wanting to ask but not daring to, the old marquis said, "Yes, Xuan'er's adopted son was actually the emperor's son, the prince's brother, the eleventh prince. Because the eleventh prince's fate was strange, Master Wuzhi said that he was not suitable for living in a wealthy country before the age of eight, and he must be sent to the people to experience hunger and hardship to accumulate blessings for the rest of his life. Therefore, the emperor had him released near Tangyuan and adopted by Xuan'er's wife's family."
This is what the Ninth Prince meant, and he had made it clear to Lord Chu before.
If the truth is told, it will hurt the emperor's face. The emperor was still alive and could send the prince out of the palace to save his life, which indirectly shows the emperor's incompetence.
This heavy news was like a thunderbolt, scaring Li and others so much that they almost jumped up. It also spread farther and farther, causing chaos in the aristocratic circles of the capital. Who would have thought that the burden brought by Chu Lingxuan, who had been ridiculed for a long time, was actually a prince, and the prince's younger brother. No wonder that Chen was a village girl at the beginning, and she had a burden, but Chu Lingxuan could still marry her. It turned out that he had known that the burden was a prince...
These self-righteous private discussions are of course a thing of the past.
At the welcoming banquet, except for Li who was not happy after hearing the good news, the second master and Chu Lingan were all very happy. With this support, the Chu family could win the favor of the emperor and the prince.
Chu Lingzhi also laughed so hard that he said to the Third Madam, "Mom, that Dabao, oh, no, I should call him the Eleventh Uncle. He was my nephew before, so he should call me the Fifth Uncle and the Third Grandma. But now he has become the younger brother of the mother, so he should call the mother the cousin and me the nephew. My God, not only the status changes quickly, but the seniority changes even faster." He scratched his head and said, "In the future, what should he call the eldest brother and the eldest sister-in-law?"
His words made everyone laugh.
Chen Ahfu pulled the corners of her mouth, she really couldn't laugh. After dinner, she looked at the third wife and hesitated to speak.
The Third Madam smiled knowingly and said, "I will go to the palace to visit my grandmother tomorrow morning." She added, "How about you make some more snacks, and I will give them to my grandmother, and send some to Siyuan Palace for Concubine Xian and Little Eleven?"
Chen Afu thought about it and didn't agree. It's not good for the foster mother to send food to Xiaoyi right after he returned to his biological mother. It's better to let them spend some time together before talking about it.
The Third Lady also realized that her suggestion was not a good one, and said with a smile, "Oh, this is a bad idea, let's talk about it another day." She then whispered, "I haven't met the Concubine Xian much, so I don't know her very well. But seeing how well she taught the Crown Prince, she must be a kind person."
Back at the bamboo pavilion, the two brothers also felt that something was wrong. They hadn't seen their eldest brother for a long time, nor had they seen the dog family. They started to make a fuss, "Brother, I want you..."
The little girl felt sorry for her younger brothers, and when she saw them quarreling, she had to cheer herself up and coax them.
At this time, Li Ma and Yu Saozi had already packed up the house and the things they brought. Miss Chu lived in the west wing of Zhuxuan, and Yu Ge'er and Ming Ge'er lived in the north and south rooms of the east wing.
Chen Ahfu looked at Yu Saozi who was pregnant and said, "You are pregnant, don't move too much, let the little girl do it if you have anything to do."
Sister Yu smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm used to doing this. I feel uncomfortable if I don't do it."
Chen Afu went to the west wing and the east wing to take a look and found that they were well tidy.
Although there are many empty courtyards in the marquis's mansion, the little girl has just arrived and the two brothers are still young, so she lets them live in the same courtyard with her for the time being.
When the time came, she persuaded the children to go and rest. Seeing that the little girl was in a bad mood, she did not let her sleep with her in the upper room. Because she still wanted to wait for Chu Lingxuan to come back and hear how Xiao Shiyi was doing after entering the palace.
Moreover, she always felt that something big was going to happen in the court. Today was already the 18th, and the fake Second Prince had just completed his one-month vegetarian diet at Baoguo Temple on the 15th of this month. I don't know if he ran away or was arrested. At least, this matter has not yet come to light.
She fed Xiao Yu'er milk, coaxed her to sleep, and went to the bathroom. She locked the door and entered the space.
This was the first time in so many days that she had found time to enter the space.
Jin Yanzi was lying on the ground, sulking, with red and swollen eyes. This little thing was very sentimental, and it was very sad that Dabao was gone.
Chen Ahfu sat down and held it in his palm and said, "Seeing you are so sad, you can fly into the palace to visit him anytime when you get out. It may not be easy for us to see him, but it is very important for you to see it."
