Chapter 431: Point Out
Chen Afu had never spoken clearly to Chen Ming before. He always stopped talking and always wanted him to figure it out on his own. But it doesn't have much effect. It's not that he doesn't understand, but that he doesn't want to understand. This time, Chen Afu spoke more clearly.
Chen Ming's face suddenly turned red. After thinking about it, she finally said, "Hey, you are getting older, and she wants to make life easier for her sons. So dad..."
Chen Afu sat next to him with a smile and said, "My grandma's wish has come true. With the help of my father, my uncle, and my third uncle, my uncle's family has hundreds of acres of land, a shop, and even bought a house in Fucheng. House, he is already a well-known landlord in the town. Isn't it good to live like this?" Chen Ming nodded and said softly, "Since they are already living a good life, we don't need any more money. Giving money and things. That will easily encourage Hu's greed. If they continue to ask for money in such days, my third uncle and third aunt will be dissatisfied with my mother. If they continue to do this, until my third uncle stops paying attention to them, until dad is overwhelmed, and until I am dissatisfied, then the relationship between you brothers will really never be the same as it was before. , the uncle’s family also loses more than they gain..."
Although Chen Afu hates the Hu family very much, he has a good impression of the Agui couple and does not want Chen Ye to really go to the extent of the Hu family and cause rift between the brothers. She could not care about Mrs. Chen and Chen Ye, but she couldn't care less about Chen Ming's feelings. She knew that Chen Ming had a very deep relationship with Mrs. Chen and Chen Ye, and they had indeed helped Chen Ming a lot before.
She talked with Chen Ming for a long time.
Finally, she said, "...I don't have much interaction with Dafang. It's all because of dad that I said so much. No matter what happens to them in the future, I won't talk anymore. If we can get along, let's continue to get along. Look. If you’re not used to it, don’t watch it.”
Chen Ming was not stupid. Listening to Ah Fu's words, he knew that if he continued to indulge, if my mother did not know how to restrain herself, and if the eldest brother continued to be as greedy as Hu, then they would completely offend Ah Fu. These families all rely on Ah Fu to live a good life, which means that Ah Fu is the biggest supporter of the Chen family. If Ah Fu doesn't like the big house, the big house will lose more than the gain. Chen Ming and Chen Ye have a good relationship, and he hopes that Dafang's life will get better and better. Of course, he didn't want Ah Fu to be unhappy or have an affair with his wife and daughter...
Chen Afu saw Chen Ming lowering his head and thinking, and started joking with Mr. Wang. It was time for him to think about it.
Mrs. Wang said that they would go back to their home today, and Chen Afu said coquettishly, "We have just come back. Mom and dad must kiss us for at least a day before leaving."
Wang smiled and agreed again.
As Chu Hanyan, Li Xuan, Brother Yu and Brother Ming woke up, the yard became lively again.
Chen Afu called Nanny Huang over, and Nanny Huang bowed to Chu Hanyan again.
Before going to the capital, Chen Afu talked with Song's mother. Mother Song had always taken good care of Miss Chu, and she got along very well with Chen Afu. Therefore, Chen Afu asked her in advance that if she was willing to continue to serve the little girl, she would have to succumb to the nanny in the future. If she doesn't want to, give her a sum of money to go home and live with men and children.
Song's mother thought for a long time and was still willing to take the money and go home. The girl has grown up now and does not need anyone to serve her as before. I am not the girl's nanny. Although I get along well with the girl, my relationship is not that deep. She knew that the nuns in the palace were all powerful. Once the nuns came, her status in the courtyard would not be as high as before.
Chen Afu gave her one hundred taels of silver as a pension and asked her to wait until the correctional nun came, and then wait until the nun could get started before going back. He also told the girls Qi'er and Miao'er that when they grow up, they can no longer be served by their mother like before, but rather by the girls.
In the afternoon, Chu Lingqi and Song led Brother Wen to the main courtyard again.
Chu Lingqi is now the general manager of the sixth-grade sect, and will go to Yingmao after settling his home. He and Chen Ming were talking about the house, and the more they talked, the happier they became. He wanted to buy a yard like Chen Ming's house, and heard Chen Ming say that someone happened to be selling yards near his house, so the two went out to look at houses together.
The next morning, after sending Chen Ming and Wang away, Chen Afu asked Xia Yue to lead Miss Chu and Li Xuan to play with building blocks and tell stories. She took the two brothers and a cart of things to the Chen Mansion.
Mrs. Jiang heard that Chen Shiying was in good spirits. She lived in a clean courtyard of her own and was not cold or hungry. She missed her and her children very much... She was so happy that she shed tears, clasped her hands together and chanted Buddha's name.
Chen Afu also said that he might have to put his affairs aside for a while, as there are many things going on in the court now...
While the two were talking, the three Chen Yuhui sisters arrived.
When Chen Yuqing and Chen Yuxia saw Chen Afu, their eyes were red, and they both ran to hug her and asked, "Sister, is dad okay?"
Chen Afu nodded and said, "Dad is very good. He asked you to listen to mother and wait for him to come home."
Chen Yuhui stepped forward and asked, "Will dad be dismissed from office?"
Chen Yuhui has lost weight and his face looks longer. She looked at Chen Afu nervously, as if Chen Afu was Chen Shiying's superior, and one sentence could determine whether Chen Shiying would be an official or not.
Chen Afu said, "I really don't know whether dad will resign from office. However, dad has already looked away. He said that if he can continue to be an official, he will do practical things for the people. If he can't continue to be an official, he will not live in the pastoral life. like……"
After hearing this, Chen Yuhui's eyes turned red, and he said, "It's easy to say. If he doesn't work as an official, what should we do..." Seeing that Jiang and Chen Afu both looked gloomy, he quickly said, "I don't care. We've already got engaged. What should I do with my third sister? Can I only find a local rich man in the countryside?"
Chen Yuqing was so angry that her face turned red, and she said, "Second sister, you are afraid that the He family doesn't want you anymore, but don't drag me into it."
Jiang shouted, "Girl, you are not ashamed to talk about those things. Whether your father is an official or not, he is your good father, and you are all his children!"
Chen Afu also looked gloomy and shouted, "Dad has something wrong. I don't care about whether he is doing well. What I care most about is whether he can still be an official and whether it will affect my marriage. Second sister, I really don't know what to say to you."
Chen Yuhui saw Jiang's angry eyes and reluctantly endured it and didn't say anything. It is now mid-February, and she will marry the He family next month. There was only one month left, and the He family didn't even mention it, and Jiang didn't ask. She was almost dying of anxiety, but there was nothing she could do. Now, her grandmother's yard was under strict surveillance, and she couldn't even ask her grandmother to make the decision for her.
Everyone ignored Chen Yuhui's bitter face, and after lunch, Chen Afu gave Chen Yulan a few more instructions before taking the child home.
