Chapter 335: Come to my humble abode

But he was stopped by a look from the Emperor of Great Chu.

The woman had never expected that a rich old man whom she had only met once would suddenly make such a request, and she was stunned.

As if he was worried that the woman would refuse, the Great Chu Emperor said, "Don't worry, Madam. My wife will go with you."

[Father, you can't just consider that they might be afraid of you. You also have to consider that their family life might not be rich.]

[Maybe there won’t be any leftovers to entertain Father! ]

Just as the Great Chu Emperor was about to say something, he saw a young man running up to the woman with great interest: "Mother, mother, they are all sold, all sold!"

The young man handed the silver in his hand to his mother and said, "Just now, two ladies said they liked your craftsmanship and bought all the embroidery you made."

The woman quickly pushed the silver in her hand back and asked, "How can there be so much money?"

"No, you have to return it to them!"

Seeing that the woman's face was very serious, the Emperor of Great Chu was convinced of her character.

It seems that she is indeed an upright woman and she is very good at educating her children.

Suddenly, the thought of the young man named Shen Ping flashed through the mind of the Emperor of Great Chu, and he wondered if he had been properly settled now.

The young man was reluctant to do so: "Mother, the lady said that the rest is your hard-earned money. Now that father is not at home, if you can make more money from your embroidery, you can have a more relaxed life."

"Student! What did I teach you?" The woman seemed to be furious and reached out to hit him.

However, Song Qingyan came from behind and grabbed his wrist.

[Father, I just wondered if those embroidery items were bought by mother. Look at what Sister Jinyu has in her hands. It turned out to be true!]

[Father, you don’t know that mother has been doing nothing in Qingyun Palace these days, and she has actually learned embroidery. Her embroidery skills... are really beyond words.]

[So it's reasonable for my mother to like these things. ]

"Madam?" The young man named Su Sheng looked at Song Qingyan who was standing in front of him with surprise.

"Madam." The Emperor of Great Chu also looked at Song Qingyan in front of him with a smile.

This made the woman stunned.

So the lady who bought my embroidery is actually the wife of the old man in front of me?

The Great Chu Emperor naturally saw the clues and said quickly: "I think there is a connection between us. If so, I wonder if Madam can..."

"Please come to my humble home and have a seat, sir." Before the Emperor of Great Chu could finish his words, the woman spoke hurriedly.

Since this lady paid me so much extra money, why not treat her to a meal?

He immediately told his son to buy some things.

She picked up her daughter and led the group back home.

Song Qingyan, however, looked at the Emperor of Great Chu with a misty look.

[Father, Father, please tell mother quickly. She is very worried now! ]

[Mom, this girl is also called Wanwan! We actually have the same name! ]

[Just now, my father asked this woman to invite him to dinner at home. The woman was hesitant at first, but she probably felt embarrassed after seeing my mother buy his embroidery, so she agreed.]

The Great Chu Emperor opened his mouth, wanting to explain to Qingyan, but Lu Xingwan's mumbling prevented him from getting a word in.

Although others cannot hear it, he can hear it!

So it was only when Lu Xingwan stopped thinking that he continued to tell Song Qingyan the whole story in detail.

Song Qingyan was forced to listen to it twice.

But at least I figured out the whole story.

He stopped in his tracks, looked at the people behind him, and said softly to Lady Yue: "Sister Yue, the other party's family may not be rich, so we don't all need to go. Why don't you take Jinyu and Qionghua to the restaurant to eat?"

Song Qingyan's words "Sister Yue" made Yue Guiren feel so happy.

So naturally I agreed without thinking.

He told the woman that he had something else to do and left.

After the group left, Song Qingyan motioned Wei Cheng to come over to her side and said, "Wei Tong... Wei Cheng, go buy some firewood, some rice, noodles, meat, and other things you need for daily life."

"Remember to buy food that is easy to store. If it's hot today, don't buy too much raw meat. Buy more bacon."

Song Qingyan's detailed instructions stunned the Emperor of Great Chu who was standing beside her. He did not expect that she knew so much about folk affairs.

[Father, please take your eyes off me. They are about to fall on my mother.]

[Has my mother's charm conquered you again? My mother is amazing! ]

Wei Cheng responded and left.

Seeing the look of the Great Chu Emperor, Song Qingyan smiled awkwardly: "Master, in the past..."

Song Qingyan paused and moved closer to the Great Chu Emperor: "In the army, you have to deal with these things."

The Great Chu Emperor nodded with admiration, but his opinion of Song Qingyan became higher and higher in his heart.

When the group arrived at the woman's home, they found that she lived in just a few simple farmhouses, and that the houses around her were all similar.

The Great Chu Emperor found it hard to imagine how there could be such a dilapidated house in the county town of De'an County.

Even the lush willow trees nearby were drooping, unable to cover the view.

Everyone walked into the house again. The furniture in the house was also old and the furnishings were simple. Lu Xingwan had previously thought that this family should be well off, but seeing the situation now, this must be... poverty, right?

The woman quickly put down the child in her arms, without the slightest sign of embarrassment on her face. She simply said, "My home is simple, and I am sorry to have troubled you, my distinguished guests."

Song Qingyan seemed to feel guilty and waved her hands quickly: "No, no, may I ask your name, Madam?"

"I don't deserve it. My husband's surname is Liu."

"Mrs. Liu." Song Qingyan said politely.

The woman waved her hand and said, "Madam, please sit down first. I will go and get ready."

Song Qingyan was ready to lend a hand, but was pushed out by the woman. She had no choice but to stand in the yard and chat with the Emperor of Great Chu.

The Emperor of Great Chu was truly stunned. He never expected that this woman would live in such a simple manner.

He was a high-ranking official in the temple, so naturally he would not have the opportunity to see such a place. However, Song Qingyan, who had been in the military camp, was already accustomed to it.

"Master, if the people were well off, they would be happy with a house like this."

But the problem is that the people of De'an County are probably living in dire straits now.

As soon as Lu Xingwan entered the yard, he was eager to get down to the ground, and now he was running towards a cat in the yard.

Ever since he mastered some psychic arts, Lu Xingwan has been keen on teasing small animals.
