The Prince's Humen's Wife

Chapter 440 Leading the Tiger Out of the Cave (2)
Li Chaochao twitched the corners of his mouth, "Look at my aunt who is more nervous than me, how could he be in any danger? Today is the Laba Festival, just the two of us, we need to have a good meal."

Seeing that Li Chaochao didn't want to say more, my aunt also responded with a smile, "I asked the kitchen this morning, and I heard that Mr. Shen got up early in the morning to cook porridge..."

Li Chaochao raised her eyebrows, but Shen Xueying was quite diligent, just thinking about it, her aunt started chattering.

"This Mr. Shen is a good-looking talent. Although his family is in a poor family, he is also from a noble family. I see him so pitiful, and I want to give him..."

Li Chaochao looked at his aunt with a bad feeling. Could it be that he planned to take Mr. Shen as his concubine?

The aunt's smile made people tremble even more, "I want to help him arrange a marriage, and save him from being alone. I got along very well with him before, and I have long regarded him as my own son. If he can find I will be very pleased if I have a daughter-in-law to take care of me."

Startled.

The corners of Li Chaochao's mouth curled into a little smile, but finding a wife for Shen Xueying was not an easy task.

My aunt laughed again and said: "I plan to recognize him as a foster son. From now on, he will stay in our house, and no one has any objections. How does Chao Chao feel?"

"This is a good thing." Li Chaochao raised his eyebrows in surprise, "If Mr. Shen becomes my aunt's adoptive son, my aunt will have someone to take care of her in the future, but my aunt is alone now, and she still needs to find a good family to marry in the future. It's always inconvenient to be around."

My aunt couldn't help frowning, she didn't expect this.

Li Chaochao didn't want to see his aunt unhappy, so he said: "But it's okay, when Mr. Shen becomes my righteous brother, if we become relatives, I will naturally arrange for him. I see that Mr. Shen is very fond of food. If you are good at it, if you open a restaurant in the future, the business will be very good."

The aunt's brows immediately relaxed, and she laughed loudly: "Chao Chao is right, it is so decided, and today is a good day, I will ask him carefully, when the time comes, I will become his adoptive mother, and find him It’s convenient to have a good marriage.”

Li Chaochao nodded with a smile, finding a wife for Shen Xueying was much more difficult than finding a man for his aunt.

Shen Xueying looks so troublesome, who can rest assured?

She thought to herself, and her aunt smiled and asked Li Chaochao, "Do you have a suitable candidate? If there is no one in the capital, I think the maids around you are pretty good..."

Li Chaochao raised his eyebrows, "Auntie, Mr. Shen still needs to take a fancy to this matter. What's more..." She couldn't help lowering her voice and said: "When the emperor dies, according to the rules, there is at least a one-year national mourning period. Marriages and banquets are not allowed here, and I'm afraid we can't waste it this year."

The aunt curled her lips, "I really forgot about it."

Not to mention marriage, even having children is not allowed.

"If we wait another year, Xueying will be older..." My aunt muttered, "I was thinking of arranging a marriage for him as soon as possible, and then giving birth to a fat boy."

She doesn't really want to find a man anymore, and puts all her thoughts on the junior, so she can enjoy family happiness.

Li Chaochao comforted with a smile: "Don't worry, maybe Mr. Shen already has a sweetheart, a year is not long, soon..."

But she had another idea in her heart, the Chinese New Year was coming soon, so she could invite some people over to join in the fun.

Since my aunt wanted to find a wife for Shen Xueying, there was someone who was perfect for her.

Li Chao responded with a smile on his face, and said to the aunt next to him: "Auntie, Chinese New Year is coming soon, why don't we..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chunli heard a loud voice from outside: "Mr. Shen, you are here... Oh, this is your eight-treasure porridge? It's really good... Grandma will definitely like it."

Shen Xueying smiled outside, Chunli then opened the curtain, and saw Shen Xueying walking in with a food box, and said with a smile: "Drink it while it's hot, it's just out of the pot, although it's not very good for the first time, but I It's been good before."

As usual, he first filled a bowl for himself, sat next to him and took a sip, looking very happy, "Don't just look at me, Auntie, drink it too, it's pretty good, I know you're here, specially Boiled very thick, suitable for your appetite."

"Okay, okay." My aunt nodded to Shen Xueying, "Don't worry, I have something to tell you."

My aunt glanced at Li Chaochao, saw that she just smiled and didn't speak, and took a couple of sips of the eight-treasure porridge that Chunli brought over.

Shen Xueying raised her head and smiled, "Auntie just tell me what to do."

"What's the matter, your child just thinks of others." The more her aunt became more satisfied, Li Chaochao felt that her eyes were like looking at her own son.

The aunt said: "Xueying, you are left with only yourself now. If you don't dislike my aunt's incompetence, then consider me a foster mother. Although I don't have much money, I can take care of you and find you a good wife in the future. Aunt wants to take good care of you, but I don't know what you want."

Li Chaochao saw that Shen Xueying's eyes changed from surprise to excitement, and the corners of her mouth trembled as she unconsciously smiled and said, "Auntie, do you really want to recognize me as your son?"

"Naturally, I wonder if you agree?" My aunt asked with a smile.

Shen Xueying didn't hesitate, she knelt down and saluted with a smile, "By the mother-in-law, please be respected by the child."

Li Chaochao's eyebrows were raised even higher, Shen Xueying's skin is really thick, it is unmatched by others.

She deeply realized that Shen Xueying was definitely not as simple as she appeared on the surface. Since she was a frail and sickly person, when did she learn to be so thick-skinned?
Li Chaochao lowered his eyes thoughtfully, and suddenly heard his aunt laughing: "Okay, good boy. It's too late today. We will formally set up a family hall in a few days. This is a big deal. You don't need to have my surname. Just keep the surname Shen, what do you think?"

"Everything is decided by the adoptive mother, and the child has no objection."

After Shen Xueying finished speaking, she smiled and saluted Li Chaochao, "From then on, Chaochao will be my younger sister, righteous sister."

Li Chaochao looked at Shen Xueying with a half-smile, this relative climbed so fast.

"Brother Yi, you are welcome."

Li Chaochao's smile deepened, "Since it's such a big event, it's natural to invite more relatives to come."

She turned her head to look at her aunt, "Auntie, what do you think?"

The aunt asked strangely: "Which other relatives do we have in Beijing?"

"It's a relative of my in-law's family. Since my aunt recognizes her adopted son, it's good for everyone to have a happy event. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it's fun when everyone gathers together."

"Did not you say……"

"Auntie, in our countryside, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, not to mention that we don't have much to do."

My aunt nodded, "That's fine, it's the Chinese New Year anyway, so they can come if they want, if they don't want to, let's not force it."

"Auntie is generous, and such a good thing naturally requires everyone to have fun together." Li Chaochao smiled and turned his head to look at Shen Xueying, "Brother Yi should be fine, right? Although my mother-in-law and a few sister-in-laws come from rich families, they treat others well." It's gentle, especially because I have a sister-in-law..."

"Which sister-in-law?" My aunt raised her voice, "That Lan Xinyao?"

"No, aunt." Li Chaochao smiled and said, "It's the youngest aunt, Lan Duruo, she is very innocent and romantic, if she can get along with her brother-in-law, it will be a good thing, and it will save aunt from worrying."

My aunt thought that although Lan Duruo was a concubine, if she was really good-natured, she could consider it.

"But if you let those people come, will it cause trouble?"

"Don't worry, aunt. If you can't get along, just send them back. This is my home, and I can't let them do whatever they want." Li Chaochao smiled, "And I just want to take Lan Duruo over."

Now the Marquis of Wuxiang is in charge of the small fan, and it is not yet Ni's turn to confiscate it.

"Shen Xueying" on the side frowned almost invisibly.

Li Chaochao asked people from the Lan family to come because he wanted people to reveal his identity.

He had seen Lan Duruo before, if Lan Xinyao came, he could still think of a way, but that mindless Lan Duruo...

Mu Xueyi was not so happy.

Li Chaochao, never let go of any opportunity to reveal his identity.

Okay, since you want to play, let's play bigger.

In fact, Mu Xueyi guessed right, Li Chaochao's purpose was just like this, but she didn't really plan to find the Lan family, no one in the Marquis of Wuxiang knew she was here.

What Li Chaochao did was just to lure the tiger out of its hole!
The next day, Li Chaochao sent someone to send the news to the capital, went to the Marquis's Mansion in Wuxiang, and sent a greeting card.

On the eighth day, news came that the concubine Second Miss of Wuxiang Hou's Mansion accidentally broke her leg.

Li Chaochao received the news and stared coldly at the night sky, he...is really Mu Xueyi!
