"Well, actually I was just guessing! I just saw the orchid embroidered on your scarf and suddenly thought of it." Chen Ruxue did not hide it. When she was helping to pack the clothes just now, she found a white silk scarf. The fabric was obviously the finest mulberry silk, and the orchid embroidered on it was lifelike.
"You guessed right. I've loved orchids since I was a kid. I have a neighbor who's an orchid grower, and I often followed him to learn his techniques. Later..."
Feng Mingzhu paused for a moment and continued, "Then the man left with his family and we never saw him again.
It’s been more than 20 years, and I don’t know if he is still alive..."
Chen Ruxue originally wanted to ease the atmosphere, but unexpectedly, it brought back memories of her godmother. She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only find an excuse to help Ye's mother prepare dinner and leave.
Only Feng Mingzhu was left alone, lost in thought...
Feng Mingzhu was actually not sad at all about Zhang Zhongjing's betrayal.
She had no feelings for Zhang Zhongjing. The reason she married him was because he pursued her so closely. In addition, her father was old and she was afraid that her father would worry, so she chose to marry Zhang Zhongjing.
Although I have no feelings for him, the companionship of all these years cannot be forgotten overnight.
The happiness and sorrow of the past filled her mind.
Recently, she often wondered whether she and he could have had a happy ending if the man had not left suddenly.
Feng Mingzhu, who has experienced many things, is no longer the innocent girl she used to be. She thinks, perhaps, it was the best thing for both of them not to be together in the first place!
Feng Mingzhu only thought for a moment, then came to his senses, walked out of the house and headed towards the kitchen.
Now that you have moved to the Ye family, you must integrate into the family as soon as possible!
During dinner in the evening, Ye's father, who had been busy for most of the day, did not show any surprise when he found Feng Mingzhu at home.
He is a bad person. What's more, he is now living in a house bought by his daughter-in-law. As a father-in-law who has divided the family property, he doesn't want to interfere too much.
It is said that children and grandchildren have their own blessings. His mother is just like that. She lets go of everything, but she lives a good life!
After dinner, Feng Mingzhu helped clean up the kitchen before returning home.
After a while, Chen Ruxue knocked on the door again, "Godmother, there is hot water in the kitchen. It's hot, you can add some cold water to wash."
"Okay, I understand, Xiaoxue, go and get some rest!"
"Hey, I'm leaving now!"
After confirming that there was no sound at the door, Feng Mingzhu took the basin to the kitchen.
After a simple cleanup, Feng Mingzhu went to bed.
In the east room, after Ye's mother coaxed Dabao to sleep, she began to scold Zhang Zhongjing in a low voice.
"Zhang Zhongjing is such a piece of shit. The fake Zhang Zhenzhen is almost the same age as his daughter, and he has the nerve to say such things. How shameless!
Sister Feng is so pitiful, she has lost everything and is left alone."
After listening for a while, Father Ye understood what had happened and leaned to the side. "Alright, forget what others are doing. Some things can't be solved by just scolding them. You might as well go to bed early because you have to get up early tomorrow!"
Mother Ye couldn't stand the way Father Ye acted as if nothing had happened to him. She angrily said, "No man is good. No matter if he's old or young, they're all the same kind of scum! Humph! Go to sleep!"
Father Ye: “…”
Who did he offend?
In the west room, Chen Ruxue brought her two children into the space, took a quick bath, dried their hair, and then put the two children on the assembled small bed with guardrails, letting them play by themselves.
She walked over to the five mahogany boxes that had been stored in the space before.
Today in the secret room, the light was bad and I couldn’t see clearly.
After opening the wooden boxes one by one, Chen Ruxue began to look at them carefully.
The first wooden box was filled with small yellow croakers, nothing special.
The second wooden box was filled with gold and jade jewelry of various craftsmanship and shapes, which were so shiny that they were dazzling to the eyes.
The remaining three wooden boxes were relatively simple, two boxes of exquisite porcelain, and one box of ancient books and scrolls.
There weren't many things, but they were all high-quality. Chen Ruxue guessed that they must be treasures that her godmother's father had left behind when he donated his fortune.
I didn't expect that she would get it so easily!
Although her godmother gave these things to her, Chen Ruxue had no intention of using them.
Keep it, so that if anything happens to your godmother in the future, you can use it for emergency.
Chen Ruxue didn't find any passbooks, money bills, etc. She guessed that they should be in Feng Mingzhu's hands.
This is good. My godmother has money to use, so she doesn’t have to worry about it for the time being.
Chen Ruxue actually didn't dislike the fact that she recognized Feng Mingzhu as her godmother. Instead, she felt a little happy.
Before she transmigrated into the book, she had both parents, but unfortunately, her parents' hearts and eyes were filled with her younger brother.
After traveling through the book, my biological father died and my biological mother was vicious, which made me even more miserable.
In her two previous lives, she had a weak relationship with her parents, so it’s great to have such a godmother now!
After looking at a few boxes, Chen Ruxue counted the money in her space again.
Since arriving in Beijing, with Ye Haonan acting as a cover, it stands to reason that the family's rice, flour, grain, oil, meat, etc. basically do not need to use any money.
But in order to use up the tickets in the space as quickly as possible, Chen Ruxue could only use the tickets continuously every month.
But despite this, there are still a lot of tickets left in her space.
Chen Ruxue simply classified the remaining tickets and found that most of the money tickets were grain tickets, cloth tickets, meat tickets, sugar tickets, and non-staple food tickets. The others were two sewing machine tickets and one bicycle ticket.
With so much money, I estimate it will be enough to live for one or two years. Fortunately, it will be long-term.
As for cash, I didn't spend much of the previous money except for buying two courtyard houses and some miscellaneous household items.
Adding to that the three sums of money she had made from the black market some time ago, Chen Ruxue felt that she still spent too little.
She still has to continue hoarding houses. Although it is not easy to buy a house nowadays, she can take her time to find one. Moreover, she not only wants to buy a house in Beijing, but also in Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. In addition, if there is a chance, she even wants to buy a house in Hong Kong.
However, not now, at least she has to wait a little longer. At the latest, she can go to Guangzhou and Shenzhen during the winter vacation next year.
Thinking of the house, Chen Ruxue remembered her original plan and had to continue looking for someone tomorrow.
When Chen Ruxue came to her senses and tried to leave the space, she found that the two children were already fast asleep in their cribs.
Carefully picking up the two children, Chen Ruxue returned to the bed in the west bedroom. Ye Haonan also returned to the room at this time, "Shh! The two little guys are already asleep!"
"Brother Nan, we have to continue looking for someone to repair the house tomorrow. We'll look for two more days. If we can't find anyone, we'll wait until we come back from Yun Province."
