farmer's husband

Chapter 362
"Just because you said it, it means you didn't say it!" Chu Xuze said angrily.

Chai Dong raised his lips. "At first, I couldn't guess how this matter would develop. However, since he said that someone will give us an explanation, then we'll just wait and see the final outcome. Think about it every day, aren't you tired?"

The corner of Chu Xu's mouth twitched.

"Grandpa cousin, don't you think it's ironic when you say this?"

"Indeed, that's why I'm tired. I don't want to think too much now, just live the life ahead." Chai Dong said quietly.

Chu Xuze also pouted. "If you are lazy, just be lazy. Is it interesting to find such a high-sounding excuse for yourself?"

However, when Chai Dong's cold eyes glanced over, he quickly raised his hands high. "Cousin, grandpa, I was wrong! I won't say any more! I'm going to get out of here, and I won't dirty your ears here!"

While talking, he ran out and disappeared after a while.

Chai Dong twitched the corners of his mouth again, but a thin layer of black mist appeared on his face inexplicably.

When Chun Zhi saw it, she frowned.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Chai Dong turned to look at her. "I thought of something bad."

Chunzhi jumped up and down again. "Is it related to King Liang?"

Chai Dong nodded. "You also thought of it?"

"I just thought about it." Chun Zhi said softly, "Eldest sister, she can survive in the palace until now, and Liang Wang, a sick and crooked child, can grow up with difficulty. It is absolutely impossible to make it to this time safely. Not to mention the big men around King Liang, they can see that they are not casually recruiting strong men from the past. So... I think they should have taken refuge in someone."

Chai Dong's eyes darkened instantly.

"Indeed. If they hadn't sought asylum in time, they wouldn't have survived until now." He said softly, "It's just that he didn't mention a word to me yesterday."

That's what made him unhappy.

It is understandable for people to do some things against their will in order to survive.Just like his father, he was born from a poor family, so the road to advancement was difficult.After finally climbing up to the Seventh Prince, of course he tried his best to give full play to his ability, just to gain a firm foothold in the court.It's just that later his ambitions became more and more inflated, and he began to act as the Seventh Prince's pawn to do evil, that's another matter.

But in detail, it's all excusable, and he won't blame them.But why didn't Liang Wang mention it to him yesterday?

"No, he mentioned it." Chai Dong said suddenly again, "Didn't he say it clearly when we left in the end, will someone give us an explanation? It seems that it is that person."

Haruka couldn't help but also frowned.

"Then tell me, what should we do now? Obey his wishes and be that person's subordinate?"

But in this way, what is the difference between him and his father?In the end, they all became tools for the prince to fight for power, and it is very likely that he will gradually fall to his father's level!
Chai Dong's brows were already tightly knit.

"I will not be my second father." He said in a deep voice.

"I know." Chunzhi nodded quickly. "But, just in case..."

"There is no chance." Chai Dong interrupted her coldly, "We don't need to rush to a conclusion on this matter, let's just wait and see what happens. I also want to see who he has taken refuge in? Who is so capable? , can confront those people, and give me an explanation?"

Indeed, this is also a great mystery.

Chun Zhi pursed her lips. "Then let's watch first!"

It's just that it's the New Year's Eve now, there were fewer people on the street that day, and now there are fewer government servants sitting in the hall.Although there is a murder case now, it will definitely not be found out in a day or two.Therefore, they did not put all their minds on that matter.

After spending a few days peacefully at home, they received an invitation sent by Mr. Song.The Song family invited them to come to have spring wine.

"Why did they suddenly change their minds?" Holding the invitation card, Chun Zhi looked bewildered.

"Do you need to say it? The news that we went to have a reunion dinner with King Liang on New Year's Eve must have spread. Since they are already grasshoppers tied to the same rope with King Liang, and so are we, then they don't have to do anything. It’s taboo. Anyway, it’s too late.” Chai Dong said, and put away the invitation, “Then let’s go and have a look! By the way, I’ll also help my nephew take a good look at his in-laws.”

King Liang always lived reclusively. Even if he was in the capital, the gate of Prince Liang's mansion was closed all the year round. Except for visiting the emperor and empress, he hardly ever went out.

Therefore, even the people in the capital know very little about him.Then Mr. Song's family has only been here for a year, and they know even less about King Liang.

This time they invited Chun Zhi and the others to come to the door, probably because they wanted to inquire about King Liang's news.And it just so happened that Uncle Chai Dong also planned to help his nephew see his future in-laws.

The two sides can be regarded as hit it off!

Therefore, Chai Dong readily agreed to the Song family's invitation, and went to the Song family with Chun Zhi on the day the invitation was posted.

This time Chu Xu didn't intend to follow them.

"I haven't seen Wang Zongping for a long time. I'm going to meet him today. It would be even better if I can manage him and know a few noble people in the capital!" He said happily.

Although he already got to know Liang Wang and had a good conversation with Liang Wang, he was not satisfied.Since he came to the capital for a trip, of course he had to cast a wide net to catch more fish.As for how much he can get in the end, that's another story, but at least for now he is still trying to cast the net!
Chai Dong didn't force it, and let him do it himself.

The couple arrived at the Song Mansion in the carriage sent by the Song family, and found that the Song Mansion was actually a little better than the small courtyard where they lived temporarily.The place is twice as big, and the view inside is slightly better.It's just that dozens of members of the Song family live in this place, which makes it extremely crowded.

Miss Song came to pick them up, she was a little embarrassed to face Chun Zhi.

"House prices in the capital are expensive, and there is no market for good houses. When we first came here, we couldn't even buy them. We rented a house for half a year. During the half-year period, we searched and searched again, and found this one, which is quite suitable. In this way, this house cost more than half of my father’s savings! As for the house where you are housed now, it was my father’s wife who learned that we were looking for a house, and someone was going to sell the house, so she introduced it to us. I My mother bought it for me specially, saying that it will be used as my dowry in the future. That house used up all their remaining savings.”

Chun Zhi was speechless.

Thinking about when Song Zhifu was in Sanjiang Province before, he had a lot of salary for a month, and their government office was so impressive!Even the other courtyard where they were casually entertained was exquisite and small, and it was many times better than the current courtyard!
As a result, now that they came to the capital, their situation has plummeted. Fortunately, he still came here to get promoted!

If those officials with lower ranks, what kind of life would they live?
In comparison, Chai Dong is calmer.

"Living in the capital is not easy. This has been true since ancient times. If you can afford a house here, it is very good. How many people have lived in the capital for a lifetime, but they can only rent a house."

"Isn't it? When we first came here, we often complained that the place was too small and narrow, and it was not as comfortable as when we were in Sanjiang Province. That's how my father taught us." Miss Song pursed her lips and smiled, and hurriedly He took Chun Zhi's hand, "Sister Chun Zhi, let's go, I'll show you my room!"

Before hearing her call him elder sister, Harue felt it was a matter of course.

But now, hearing her call again, Chun Zhi began to feel that something was wrong in his heart.

Actually, this girl should change her name to call herself little aunt!She said to herself.

But thinking about it this way, she also found it funny.

I don't know how I have such a good fate, marrying Chai Dong with such a high level of seniority.Now, almost any relative they met was a junior.Wang Zongping is, Chu Xu is, and now her heart-and-heart good sister is again!
Even, after careful calculation, Chai Dong is still the emperor's brother-in-law!

This identity... is actually quite high.But neither is very practical.Hey, that's actually quite boring.
