Back to the marriage proposal, helping the incompetent husband to rise to the top
Chapter 212 Always with You
Chapter 212 Always with You
Chu Anlan put his hands on his knees and looked at Aunt Hua, hesitating for a moment: "Are we relatives?"
Aunt Hua raised her head and said, "It's not appropriate to make random relatives. You, my little prince, don't know how my family has fallen to this point."
"If you tell me, I will know it, right?" Chu Anlan said bluntly.
Aunt Hua looked at him with a kinder look in her eyes. She sat up straight and sighed softly: "My old man..." She paused: "He is not really an old man. When he died, he was less than 40 years old..."
Chu Anlan listened quietly.
Aunt Hua continued, "My family is a branch of a large family in Beijing, and my husband's family is also a branch of a large family. Neither of them is eye-catching.
During the time of the previous emperor, for some reason they were implicated and their property was confiscated. As a result, two major families were destroyed, with some people dead and some scattered.
After many years of wandering, my husband and I settled in Lin'an with our son. My husband went fishing, and I stayed at home doing embroidery and housework.
Later, we bought our own house and our own land.
When the son grew up, the father and son went fishing together.
Later, my son got married, and our family of four lived a happy and fulfilling life.
Unfortunately, God did not wish.
One day five years ago, my husband and son got up early as usual and went fishing on the river. They never came back. Even their bodies... were not brought back..."
As she spoke, she lowered her head and wiped her eyes with her sleeves that had turned white from washing.
Chu Anlan opened his mouth, and after a long while, he uttered two words: "My condolences."
"It's okay, I'm fine..." Aunt Hua wiped her eyes vigorously and continued, "Someone told me that my husband and son had a dispute with someone on the river, and were beaten to death and thrown into the river, but I can't find any evidence.
I built a tomb for them and gave my property to my daughter-in-law, asking her to remarry. Then I went along the river bank alone to look for him. I searched for two whole years, but still to no avail...
At this time, I met a businessman from Lin'an on the river bank. He said that his family asked someone to tell me to go home because something had happened to my daughter-in-law.
I just found out that my daughter-in-law has never remarried and has always been guarding our original home..."
"She is a loyal person." Chu Anlan said.
Aunt Hua choked up and said, "Yes, she is a kind and righteous child, but I always disliked her in the past.
They complained that she wasn't pretty enough, that she wasn't efficient enough, that she hadn't had a child in two years of marriage...
But, in the two years since I left home, she has been working hard to run the home I handed over to her...
In order to save money to find someone for me, she only ate one meal a day, and patched her clothes when they were torn, and patched them again, but she was reluctant to throw them away.
That day, she climbed up a tree by the river to pick soapberries to sell, but she missed a step and fell down, breaking her waist and never being able to stand up again...
You don't know how pitiful she was when I saw her for the first time...
In the cold winter, she was lying on the matted ground, looking so thin that she looked like a ghost. She was barely hanging on to her last breath, and she called me "Mom" like a kitten..."
At the end of her speech, Aunt Hua was so choked up that she could hardly make a sound.
Chu Anlan felt uncomfortable after hearing this.
The family of four that should have been happy, but in just a few years, the family was broken up, some died, some were disabled...
He felt heartbroken just listening to what Aunt Hua said.
How painful it must be for Aunt Hua, who experienced all this personally?
And her half-disabled daughter-in-law who can no longer move...
Chu Anlan's eyes were red, and he said seriously with a heavy nasal tone: "Aunt Hua, do you want to go to the capital?
There are many famous doctors in the capital. If you want to treat your daughter-in-law, why not take her to the capital to see a doctor?
I will pay for your medical treatment."
Aunt Hua shook her head and refused: "I appreciate your kindness, but I won't go to the capital. Alan's waist can't be cured.
When I rushed back to Lin'an, it was too late. The doctor said that the bones in her waist were broken and could not be reattached. She was lucky to be alive.
I just hope that she can suffer less and not be so miserable...
I am old now, so I should make more money now and save it for her. After I die, she will at least have money to buy food..."
Chu Anlan's eyes turned redder: "Okay."
Aunt Hua glanced at the sky, patted her butt and stood up: "Okay, I should go home, and the prince should go back too. The prince's wife is here to pick you up."
Chu Anlan looked up.
Sure enough, at the entrance of the market, Ye Wanqing smiled at him.
Chu Anlan said to Aunt Hua: "I'll have someone take you home first. I'll bring Qing'er to your house for dinner in the evening. Is that okay?"
Aunt Hua was stunned: "You... come to my house for dinner?"
Chu Anlan said confidently: "I helped you sell so many vegetables today, and you didn't even treat me to a meal?"
Aunt Hua rarely showed a bit of confusion: "Then...then can I cook noodles for you? My husband and son both said that my hand-rolled noodles are delicious."
Chu Anlan forced a smile: "Okay! I really like eating noodles."
Aunt Hua couldn't help but smiled: "Then it's settled. You call the Crown Prince's Consort along, and call your attendants as well."
"Aren't you afraid that we will eat you out of money?" Chu Anlan asked with a smile.
Aunt Hua also smiled: "Don't be afraid, come together. They are all children, not much younger than my son and daughter-in-law. How much can they eat for my money?"
Aunt Hua said she was going to buy some food to nourish her daughter-in-law, and left with the basket on her shoulder.
Chu Anlan asked the guards to take the remaining half basket of perilla home.
He patted his robe and strode towards Ye Wanqing: "Qing'er, hold me..."
As he said this, he was about to lean his whole body against it.
Ye Wanqing raised her eyes: "What's wrong with you, my lord? Why are your eyes red?"
As she spoke, she took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, then pushed aside the hair that was stuck to his forehead, revealing his smooth and full forehead.
Chu Anlan leaned on her shoulder for a moment as if no one was around, then looked up: "Qing'er, will you stay with me forever?"
Ye Wanqing responded: "The answer to this question, the prince already knew it before the marriage, didn't he?"
Chu Anlan stared at her face and said seriously: "I will always be with you."
Ye Wanqing held his hand and said, "Why do you suddenly say this to me?"
Chu Anlan clasped her fingers with his backhand: "Just now, Aunt Hua told me a lot about her family affairs. Her family is really miserable..."
On the way home, he told Ye Wanqing everything about Aunt Hua's family.
After he finished speaking, the corners of his eyes turned red: "Tell me, how can there be such unlucky people in this world?
My husband is dead, my son is dead too...
After much difficulty, a kind and righteous daughter-in-law was left behind, but in the end, this daughter-in-law broke her waist and became paralyzed...
I feel so uncomfortable just listening to it.
If my family were to fall into trouble one day, I would become like Aunt Hua's husband, and you would become like Aunt Hua...
Even if I die, I will not close my eyes..."
"My Lord." Ye Wanqing interrupted him, "You will not become Aunt Hua's husband, and I will not become Aunt Hua.
Prince Dun’s Mansion and Princess Chang’s Mansion will always be there, as will the prince and princess, my mother, father, and brother.”
Her tone was extremely firm when she said this.
