The most remote corner of the backyard of the Chu Mansion was originally the residence of the gardener. Now it has become the residence of the Yao family. Simple tables, chairs and benches, and three meals a day are delivered and placed at the door.

Chu Huan stood outside the door, looking at the closed door. He hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and whispered: "Mom, it's me, Huan'er!"

There was silence in the room for a long time, and then a caring voice slowly spoke: "Huan'er, I heard that you are now a royal guard with a sword, right?"

Chu Huan nodded quickly, "Thank you for your great love, Your Majesty!"

"Okay, okay, my son is finally successful! Mom, there is nothing else to look forward to in this life, but your third sister..." Yao said in a low voice.

"Mom, are you okay in there?" Chu Huan asked in a low voice.

"Mom should have been dead a long time ago. It is God's mercy that I am lucky enough to be alive now!" Yao's wailing voice came out, "It's just that I don't know about you. It's my mother who has shamed you!"

Chu Huan gently locked the door and whispered: "Mom, don't talk about the past. You should take good care of yourself in there. After some time, I will find a way to ask dad to let you go!"

Yao lay on the door panel and whispered: "Mom, you brought this upon yourself. You can't blame anyone else. I'm very surprised that Chu Zhantian spared my life. Huan'er, don't worry about me. Just run towards your future."

!And your third sister, she..."

"Mom, the third sister was detained by the prince. Besides, she brought it upon herself. I'm afraid..." Chu Huan whispered.

"But even so, she is still your sister, you..." Yao couldn't help but said anxiously.

"Mom, I will try my best to find a way, but now, you have to take good care of yourself!" Chu Huan was afraid that she would be anxious, so he had to agree.

Yao felt relieved and said, "Don't worry, you won't die!"

Chu Huan nodded, chatted some more, and turned to leave.

Chu Zhantian stood far away, with a look of sadness on his face. Unexpectedly, he had been so energetic all his life and thought he was worthy of heaven and earth, but he never expected that the two women around him hated him so much and wished he would die! After that incident, he

I feel that the honor and disgrace in this world are not important. This way, I feel a lot calmer!

On the second day of the Lunar New Year in Chu Han's Shangjia Village, because Chu Yiqing left in the afternoon, Mrs. Huangfu sent people to Sunjia Village to invite Ergazi and Sun Shandan's family, plus Zhao Baomi's family and Wu Laowu from Zhaojiatun.

As a family, have a reunion dinner together.

Because he was busy with getting married a few years ago, Chu Yiqing never had a good talk with Sun Shandan and the others. This time it was an opportunity to let Xia Zhi and the others see their children. The women gathered together and talked about their daily routine in detail, feeling very happy.

of peace.

Zhao Yazi of Zhao Baomi's family passed the scholar examination that year and is still studying in the academy. Ma was shocked by this. However, Meiyou was as outgoing as before and much more reserved. She sat aside obediently and didn't care.

Too many words, just a smile.

Chu Yiqing looked at the children playing around and said with a smile: "He is as strong as a millstone. Look at his little arms. They are as thick as a small tree. Shandan, give him some good food."

Already?"

Sun Shandan smiled sheepishly and said: "The most indispensable thing in the pig farm is pork. You can really eat less of the mopan. I told his father a few years ago that this mopan doesn't look like anyone anymore. It's so long."

So strong!"

Chu Yiqing said with a smile: "We also divide the children. A Jin, A Yin and Yao'er are not short of food, but they just can't get fat! The little Shihou is fatter and is not fat anymore. Now he's grown up, so let's raise him.

The servants at the pig farm taught Mopan some punches and kicks, so that he can exercise his body and make it strong so that he won't be so puffy and fat, and he can also defend himself!"

Shandan responded quickly.

"Speaking of learning boxing and kicking kung fu, Shandan, this Mopan is almost three years old. Isn't it time for him to become enlightened? Why not just send him to the academy and cultivate both civil and martial arts!" Huangfu Xin said.

Chu Yiqing nodded and said to Shandan with a smile: "I'm afraid that you and Gazi won't be able to part with each other. This academy is a bit far away from the pig farm. I'm afraid we won't be able to see each other every day when we study in the future!"

Shan Dan hurriedly said: "How can I be reluctant to give up? I just feel like the millstone is following me all day long. I am so pampered and pampered. It is really a blessing to Miss Chu. I have never experienced hardships. Now I might as well go to the academy to exercise!"

When spring comes and the weather becomes warm, I will send her here, and Mrs. Huangfu will have to worry a lot when she gets there!"

"Look at you, we can be considered relatives now, why are you talking about such things to others?" Huangfu said with a smile.

While they were talking, Jin Yu came in with a newly made chestnut cake and said with a smile: "Look at the chestnut cake my sister came up with. It's sweet, sticky and delicious!"

Everyone agreed, tasted it, and immediately praised it.

When Chu Yiqing saw that Mr. Ma kept talking, he smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, I just saw Yazi, and he has really grown up. If he were outside, I really wouldn't dare to recognize him!"

Ma hurriedly said: "The teeth are also delicious and grow quickly. Now he will be as tall as his father!"

Chu Yiqing nodded. He had heard Jin Yu nagging about Ma's family affairs before, so he advised: "Yazi is still young, sister-in-law, don't push him so hard. There will be more opportunities in the future!"

After hearing this, Mr. Ma calmed down and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I was thinking, even if he fails in his studies, he has a good uncle and aunt, and he can be assigned any job in the future."

If you do it, he won’t starve to death!”

Now that his name was called, Jin Yu smiled and said: "It's all shit, how can people starve to death? But if this child wants to make a living, his parents can't just dote on him. I see Yazi has been very spoiled since he was a child.

Yes, eldest brother and sister-in-law are just one baby, don't you love them!"

When Jin Yu said this, Ma remembered what she said about Jin Yu's beautiful son. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi were really good. Now she has two sons all at once, and her family business is getting bigger and bigger...

...If it had been like this, I wouldn't have been able to say those nonsense even if I died!

"What Mai Xiangniang said is, don't you just think about studying for two more years? If you fail to pass the exam again, you should stop studying as soon as possible and let him learn some skills from his uncle early. This is too big, and he should also find someone

It's a good marriage!" Mrs. Ma said with a smile on her face.

Seeing Ma's behavior, Jin Yu didn't share her knowledge. He just turned his eyes and said to Chu Yiqing: "Sister, when it comes to marriage, the fragrance of wheat is not small. It's time to find someone. First pick it out, make a decision, and then

It won’t be too late to get married in two years, but it’s too late to look for ruguo, and I’m afraid someone from a good family will take over!”

Ma took the opportunity to flatter him: "Maixiang is not only beautiful, but he also went to school in the town. Now he is in charge of the big house and the business in the town. He is just a member of the nearby village."

They all thought that with conditions like Mai Xiang's, they would have to be found in the city, so no matchmaker dared to come to her door. Ruguo Mai Xiang, where did you say you were informal? I have several good young men on my hands.

!”

Jin Yu originally didn't want to be acquainted with Mr. Ma, but when she heard what she said, it seemed that Mai Xiang disliked the fact that the boys in the nearby villages were all country people, so she immediately said displeased: "Mai Xiang is not a country girl.

Being able to go to the town to study and manage such a large business is all thanks to her aunt. Besides, she is looking for a man, and she is looking for a man. Could it be that she is looking for someone with a bad family background? My sister-in-law said this, but it shows that we are too poor and love each other.

Rich!"

Ma originally wanted to pat the horse, but she couldn't speak, so she patted the horse's leg. She quickly explained: "That's not what I meant, I just felt..."

"Sister-in-law is also afraid of wronging Mai Xiang!" Chu Yiqing smoothed things over, "It's time to mention Mai Xiang's marriage. Since I have time during the New Year, I will help Sister Jin Yu to find out what Mai Xiang is like. She is willing.

Let’s look for her first!”

Jin Yu also nodded.

After Mr. Ma left, Jin Yu went into Chu Yiqing's room, sat down and sighed: "As you can see, I really don't like to see Mr. Ma, although she is not as arrogant as in the past few years.

She is domineering, but when I see her, I still feel pricked in my heart! Yazi can't study well, and she is always at the back in the school. She is afraid that she will not be admitted as a scholar. I see that she will inevitably want to come to the house again in the future. I really don't want to be with her.

Deal!"

"Then let him go to the pig farm. Ergazi is also short of people. If Ergazi is in charge of him like this, he is not a serious relative. Ma can't find fault even if he wants to!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile.

Jin Yu's eyes lit up and she said: "My sister is right, why didn't I think of it? It's my sister who has the right idea!"

Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "You just thought of it for a moment. I see that you have managed this house well these years. Just do it boldly. Don't be timid when you think I am coming back. I can rest assured about this house."

I leave it to you!"

Jin Yu nodded and said, "Maybe I'm used to relying on my sister. As soon as you come back, sister, I can't make up my mind about what to do and I always want to ask your opinion!"

Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "I'm afraid there is still something about Mai Xiang?"

Jin Yu nodded and said: "I haven't heard Mai Xiang mention Liu Yi in the past two years, and I asked people in the house not to mention it. I heard from Ying Ying that Mai Xiang is really close to Mr. Ma, so I thought, sister, you can test Mai.

You have a good taste, and now our family background is not high enough to reach that Mr. Ma. If both parties are interested, then we can get engaged to save the two of us from constant contact, in case there are bad rumors spread!"

"Let me find a chance to test it out. Sister Jinyu, don't worry about this matter. It's always a matter of Guanxi and Maixiang for the rest of his life!" Chu Yiqing was thinking about Jinyu. Now Liu Qianyijing is the emperor of Rao Kingdom, so Liu Yi's

I am afraid that Mai Xiang cannot reach a high level in terms of status and status. It would be a good idea to arrange a marriage for Mai Xiang to make Mai Xiang feel settled!

Jin Yu nodded and asked again: "Why don't you come back this time?"

Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "In a few days, I may go to Lucheng. There are some problems with the accounts in Lucheng. It just so happens that Hua Lin is also homesick, so I will take her back to have a look!"

Jin Yu responded, "Once you get married, we will have less time to get together!"

Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Who told you and your mother to be anxious for me to get married? Do you regret it now?"

Jin Yu smiled and said: "What do you regret? You can't keep you just because you don't want to let you go, right? This woman will always get married!"

Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Okay, I'm done. Anyway, I'll take care of Mai Xiang's affairs, and I'll be back as soon as possible!"

Jin Yu nodded and held Chu Yiqing's hand tightly.

Because of the long distance, Chu Yiqing asked Yingqian to start packing her things and prepare to go back soon after lunch, so as not to go back late and Concubine Qing would be unhappy. As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the town, she happened to meet Shi Da, who said it was Lucheng.

An urgent letter came, so I was waiting at the gate of the town for fear of delaying the matter.

"Letter from Lucheng?" When Chu Yiqing heard that it was a letter from Lucheng, he quickly asked Yingqian to get it.

"Aunt Chu, is this a letter from eldest brother?" Hua Lin stretched out his little head from the carriage concept and asked.

Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Maybe your elder brother misses you!" But he was not so relaxed in his heart. There was obviously a problem with Lucheng's accounts, and he was afraid something might happen to Lucheng!

Yingqian took the letter and handed it to Chu Yiqing. Chu Yiqing opened it and looked at it carefully, his face couldn't help but darken.

"What's wrong?" Li Huang asked with concern, "But something serious happened?"

"Lucheng is in some trouble!" Chu Yiqing whispered.
