Qiyou Episode (One Hundred and Six)
Mrs. Chen believes that her son is capable, and he will be able to build a substantial family business by himself in the future. But now my son is still young, and it will take a long time to grow up to that point. And in the middle, there is no money.
"That's what you said, but their property has been plotted by them. What will you marry in the future?" Mrs. Chen said earnestly: "Huanzhang, a penny is hard for a hero. You have never worried about money since you were young." , I don’t know the difficulty of not having money.”
Chen Huanzhang walked up to Mrs. Chen, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Mother, my grandfather left me a sum of money. This money should be handed over to me after my scientific examination."
When Mrs. Chen heard this, her heart almost jumped into her throat: "Well, how much is there?"
Chen Huanzhang said: "It should be the property of the Chen family." In fact, he was very strange before. Later dynasties changed, but it was not affected. Logically speaking, the Chen family should have a strong background. But the Chen family's properties add up to hundreds of thousands of taels. Rare and rare treasures, I have never seen it before.
"Who told you that?"
Chen Huanzhang said: "When I returned to Beijing, the teacher handed me a letter. This letter was written by my grandfather before he died. The letter said that if my father will share the family's property equally with him, don't fight. Let me study hard. As long as you pass the imperial examination and become an official, you will have everything." He didn't say it clearly, but it was implied in the words.
Mrs. Chen held her chest for a long time before she said to Chen Huanzhang: "I can't let your father give them the property. If I don't fight or grab it, they will be suspicious. You are a junior, don't interrupt when the property is divided. Others For the matter, my mother will come and come forward." The Chen family's family has only so much money for more than two hundred years, not only Chen Huanzhang was suspicious, but Mrs. Chen was also a little strange. Their mother and son were suspicious before, and the second master Chen must have been so suspicious.
Chen Huanzhang was taken aback when he heard the words, then nodded and said, "It's my son who didn't think carefully."
Mrs. Chen said affectionately: "Zhang'er, you have done a good job." If it weren't for Chen Zhonghe's old foolishness, why would his son need to bear these things at such a young age.
The servant girl said outside: "Madam, the noodles are ready."
Under the noodles, there are two eggs. Mrs. Chen said lovingly: "Zhang'er, go to bed after eating."
Chen Huanzhang is not a pedantic person, and he has no respect for Cui Shi, so he calmly ate a bowl of noodles and two eggs: "Mom, I'm going back to rest."
Mrs. Chen said: "Running around takes a lot of time, don't go back to the yard, just sleep in the wing!" In this way, the son can sleep for a while.
Chen Huanzhang is very filial,
He nodded and said, "Okay."
After Chen Huanzhang finished washing, the bed was made. Lie on the bed and fall asleep in no time.
A few days later, Mrs. Chen Er came back.
Mrs. Chen almost didn't dare to recognize her when she saw her, but she hadn't seen her for two years and she looked older than ten years.
In Tongzhou, Mrs. Chen ate well, slept soundly and didn't worry about anything, and her whole complexion was very good. Although she is tired these days, she will catch up on sleep whenever she has free time. So the complexion looks good.
Mrs. Chen Er called out with complicated emotions: "Sister-in-law." She was also sad for a while about Mulan's resignation, and she calmed down after the matter passed. The reason why her complexion is so bad is that she has been fighting with Master Chen Er's concubine all this time. And Master Chen Er favored his concubine, causing her to suffer a lot of secret losses.
Mrs. Chen didn't ask too much, but said: "I can breathe a sigh of relief that my brother and sister are back." Even though the second wife is not bad-tempered, but because of Master Chen, she and the second wife have always been polite. .
Mrs. Chen nodded.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Brother Yuan was full moon. The first child of the fourth generation of Prince You's Mansion, the full moon banquet is naturally as lively as it is.
Because Chen Muqing gave birth to Brother Yuan and hurt her body, Han Jingjing put her on a double confinement.
After Cui's July 7, Mrs. Chen said to Chen Zhonghe, "I'll go to Prince You's Mansion tomorrow to visit Mu Qing." She hasn't visited Mu Qing since her daughter was born a month ago, and she is very concerned about it.
Chen Zhonghe also missed his nephew, but he was a little hesitant: "We value filial piety now, so it's not good to go to the Prince's Palace."
Mrs. Chen said: "I will send someone to ask my mother-in-law's opinion first. If my mother-in-law doesn't object, I will go and have a look, and I will come back after reading." She can't leave the Chen family for too long, and she has to deal with many things.
Chen Zhonghe nodded and said, "Okay."
Han Jingjing herself has a daughter. If it were her, she wouldn't be able to bear it for such a long time.
Pearl got the words and went back to Chen's house, and said to Mrs. Chen: "The concubine Shi Zi said that it is enough for Madam to change clothes before entering Prince You's mansion." Normally, people who value filial piety would consciously not go to other people's homes. After all, it is very unlucky to enter someone's house wearing a heavy filial piety.
Mrs. Chen nodded: "It's what it should be." Speaking of mother-in-law, she was really reasonable.
At dawn the next day, Mrs. Chen went to Prince You's Mansion. At the door, he took off his filial piety clothes on the carriage. Wearing lotus-colored clothes, he entered Prince You's Mansion.
When Chen Muqing saw Mrs. Chen, she thought her eyes were dazzled. It wasn't until Mrs. Chen held her hand that Chen Muqing was sure that he was not hallucinating: "Mother, why are you here?"
Mrs. Chen said: "Ever since I knew you had a baby, I've always wanted to visit you. But there are too many things to do, and I can't get away." As she spoke, she looked at Chen Muqing.
Chen Muqing did not look fat after giving birth, and her figure is still as slender as before marriage. However, her complexion was rosy and her complexion was excellent. She didn't look like someone who had just given birth at all.
During the confinement period, Han Jingjing didn't blindly give Chen Muqing nourishment. Instead, let her eat small and frequent meals, which are also very nutritious.
You don't need to ask anything, just looking at Chen Muqing's appearance, you can tell that confinement is sitting very well.
"Where's the child?"
Chen Muqing regretfully said: "Mother, the grandparents just carried the child into the palace."
When Qiyou came to see the child for breakfast, he told Chen Muqing that he would bring the child into the palace for Yunqing and Yuxi to name it, but Han Jingjing didn't tell Chen Muqing that Mrs. Chen would come to visit her today. Therefore, Chen Muqing did not object.
Mrs. Chen asked, "Is the child okay?"
"I was only four catties when I was born, and I was a little thin. But I have enough milk, and after a month of feeding, I am now white and fat."
Hearing this, Mrs. Chen burst into tears: "Fortunately, you and the child are safe and sound, otherwise, your mother and your brother will never be at ease for the rest of their lives."
Chen Muqing smiled and said: "Mother, my mother-in-law treats me like my own daughter, and my grandparents treat me very well." The most important thing is that Hong Po is also very considerate. There is nothing in the heart. Even Physician Le said that if she sits well this confinement, it will take less than two years, and if this trend continues, she will be able to conceive again in a year. But Han Jingjing told her that even if her body recovers well, it is better to regenerate every two years.
Mrs. Chen wiped her tears and said, "My son is blessed."
Chen Muqing hugged Mrs. Chen and said softly, "Mother, you don't have to worry about me. I'm living a good life here." In the Chen family, there are all kinds of troubles. Married to Prince You's Mansion, there is nothing to worry about. Now, as long as you take care of your children with peace of mind.
Mrs. Chen nodded. Chen Muqing didn't need to say this, she knew it too.
Chen Muqing told Mrs. Chen a few interesting things, one of which was that Qiyou and Huang Siling didn't see their children for a day, and they didn't eat well. The two of them didn't carry the child to their own yard, but ran to Chen Muqing's yard three times a day. Even if Chen Muqing offered to let them carry the child over, the two elders did not agree. He also said that walking around is good for your health.
Mrs. Chen laughed and said, "When your younger brother gets married, I will follow the example of King You and Princess You, and enjoy the fun of having grandchildren."
Chen Muqing hesitated, but still asked about the Chen family: "Mother, grandma passed away, so it's time for the Chen family to split up, right?"
Mrs. Chen didn't hide it from Chen Muqing, so as not to worry her: "Your father said, we will separate when your grandmother passes July 7. This matter should be brought up in these two days."
Chen Muqing showed joy: "Mother, as long as the second room can be separated, it doesn't matter if you suffer a bit from the separation."
Mrs. Chen smiled lightly when she heard the words: "Your brother told me that too. Don't worry, my mother has a sense of proportion in this matter."
Chen Muqing said: "Mother, the most important thing about a family is harmony and Lele. The family is harmonious, and everything outside is going well. As long as Huanzhang is promising, he can build a better family business in the future."
Mrs. Chen knew that her daughter was worried, so she thought for a while and said: "The patriarch will definitely not let our house suffer too much. If we can get along, mother will not compete with them. As long as Huanzhang is promising and you live well, mother will be satisfied Yes. As for money, it’s all outside the body.” It was also based on Chen Huanzhang’s words, so she would fight for it. However, if you really can't fight, you will give up.
Chen Muqing said with a smile: "Mother can think so, that would be great."
When Qiyou and Huang Siling brought Brother Yuan to the Palace of Compassion, Yunqing was talking with Yuxi.
With sharp eyes, Yu Xi smiled and said, "Why did you bring the child here?" The weather in October is neither cold nor hot, so it doesn't matter if the child is carried out.
After Yun Qing said this, he hurriedly turned his head. Seeing that Qiyou was really holding the child in his arms, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Give me a hug."
Yuxi smiled and said: "Sit down, and I'll give you a hug when you're done." She couldn't walk properly, so how could she dare to give the child to him while she was standing.
When Yunqing sat back on the chair, Qiyou walked over and handed Brother Yuan to him. Just in case, he stood by and didn't dare to walk away.
Yun Qing said with a smile: "This child is really good-looking, exactly the same as Hong Po when he was a child."
The longer Brother Yuan is, the more he looks like Chen Huanzhang. But everyone present knew that Yun Qing's eyes were not very good now.
Qiyou smiled and said, "Father, you are right, this kid and Hongpo are printed out of the same mold."
Yuxi smiled and interjected: "It doesn't matter if you look like Hongpo, but don't be like him in temper. Otherwise, the couple will get annoyed in the future."
Huang Siling felt that the child's temperament was similar to Hong Po's, although the child was naughty, but now he is motivated and filial. It's just that, I thought about it in my heart.
Yun Qing hugged the child for a while but didn't see him crying: "This child is good, unlike Hong Lang who always cries."
Qiyou said with a smile: "Brother Yuan eats and sleeps every day, just like a little pig." This kid should be called Little Pig.
