farmer's husband

Chapter 753

When Chun Zhi heard this, she too was surprised.

"What can she hide from you?"

Chai Dong raised his head to look at her, his eyes became resolute and complicated.

"You should know that the reason why she took me away when the Chai family was in turmoil and raised me meticulously for the rest of my life was calculated by my mother."

Chunzhi nodded. "I know."

"Actually, she also knows." Chai Dong said.

Chunzhi was taken aback. "She knew? When did it happen?"

"I don't know, it shouldn't be too late." Chai Dong smiled bitterly again, "I thought she didn't know, and she pretended not to know, but she kept it from me for so many years! Until she died, he Only then did she tell me—she actually knew about my mother’s plan. It’s just that she has raised me for so many years and has feelings for me, so she couldn’t bear to take revenge on me. Later, I saw that I have always been respectful to her. Plus, Boy Li and the others really respected her like a grandma, and she was gradually moved. She originally wanted to bring this secret to the coffin, but after much deliberation before she died, she decided to say Come out, let us both have a happy heart."

When Chun Zhi heard this, she felt mixed feelings in her heart.

"You mother, although she has low vision and is selfish, she is really kind to you." She said softly.

Therefore, Chai Dong should be filial to her as it should be.After all, Mrs. Wang's kindness to him is too deep and too heavy, this kindness is obviously much heavier than the kindness of his own parents!
"I know." Chai Dong nodded, "So I don't regret serving her all my life. It's just that I didn't really treat her very well when I heard these words from her mouth before she died. But she understands me very well. She has devoted all her life to me. She is a good mother, but I am not a good son. I have treated her in the cold all these years , and not very filial, but just supporting her without worrying about food and clothing. Thinking about it this way, I feel guilty, which is why I fell ill."

Chunzhi couldn't help but heaved a long sigh.

"So that's the case." She nodded, "But I think, since she was able to open up to you before she died, it means that she doesn't blame you, and you don't have to take it too seriously."

"She doesn't blame me, it's her business, but I blame myself, that's my business." Chai Dong whispered, his eyes gradually became serious, "So, I have decided One more thing."

"What?" Haruka asked.

"I decided to return to my hometown and take my mother's clothes back to Wangjia Village to build a clothes grave for her. When she left, she said that what she couldn't let go of in the end was that in order to support me, she stole chickens and dogs in the village. Less bad things. And because she has no money to pay, she still pretends to be righteous and quarrels with others. But in fact, she remembers everything she owes. I also promised her at the time that I would help her to settle the matter. The debt was paid off. Then she closed her eyes contentedly."

In other words, he is leaving the capital?
Is Chai Dong, a generation of legend in the officialdom, about to withdraw from the court completely?
Harue's heart sank heavily for no reason.

"I'll go back with you!" She blurted out suddenly.

Chai Dong raised his eyes to look at her in surprise, and saw Chun Zhi smile faintly. "After what happened to your mother, I suddenly thought that my parents in Gujia Village should be reaching their end soon, right? The old couple are used to the free life in the village, and they refuse to come out with us anyway. Every time I visit Look at us, those who lived for ten days and half a month clamored to go back to the village, insisting that it would be more comfortable to live in the village. It is said that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to support but does not want to be loved. Since my parents both I am still alive, so I should cherish the kindness that God gave me, and go to serve them well. After all, God knows when they will leave me?"

"You're right." Chai Dong nodded, "If you've made up your mind, then we can go back together. But first, I want to explain to you—I don't intend to go in a grand manner. Then When I come down, I just plan to stay quietly with my mother in the village."

"I understand. I also only intend to serve my parents in an ordinary way, and I don't intend to be too motivating." Chun Zhi nodded.

Only a slight smile appeared on the corner of Chai Dong's mouth. "So we've reached an agreement on this matter again?"

"Yes, we have reached an agreement." Harue nodded.

Suddenly, a brilliant brilliance burst into Chai Dong's eyes. "With you by my side, I suddenly feel that the days back home won't be too boring. It's great."

"Well, it's pretty good." Chun Zhi also said softly.

After Chun Zhi visited him, Chai Dong's health improved rapidly.It's just that he is old after all, so it is impossible to recover completely.The imperial physician also came to a conclusion for him: in the future, he can only be honored and raised, and he can no longer work hard.

Chai Dong also took the opportunity to write to the emperor, requesting to return home.

Although the emperor was reluctant to give up, fortunately, after more than ten years, after Chai Dong's vigorous rectification, the officialdom has taken on a new look.The emperor holds all the power in the government, and he is no longer the King Liang who sat on the throne tremblingly.

Therefore, although the emperor would have some inconvenience after Chai Dong left, it would not be too difficult for him to act.So after repeatedly trying to keep Chai Dong to no avail, he approved the paperwork and allowed him to leave the capital.

With the emperor's permission, Chai Dong began to pack his luggage.

Afterwards, Chunzhi also expressed to the emperor that she wanted to go back to Sanjiang Province to support her parents.

The emperor is really reluctant now.

"Auntie, do you want to leave too? You and my little uncle, you two are the spiritual pillars that have supported me to this day, and I have become used to having you by my side! Now that my little uncle is gone, you have to go too. What are you planning to do?" How will I live the rest of my life!"

"You are already such a grown-up person, you can already be on your own. We stay here just to give you a little psychological comfort. When we leave, you will find that life is still going on without us. Even, maybe How can your life be more brisk!" Chun Zhi smiled slightly.

The emperor was still reluctant. "Auntie, if you don't, don't leave. At worst, I will send your parents an imperial physician and let him take care of your parents' health. Wouldn't it be better?"

"Is that so, then I will thank the emperor for your reward first!" Chun Zhi bowed down and saluted after hearing that.

But immediately, she said again: "However, I want the imperial doctor, and my people also want to go back. I have already decided."

The emperor simply knew that Harue had made up his mind.

"If that's the case, then fine!" Seeing that he couldn't keep it, he could only let it go.

Regarding Chun Zhi's return to his hometown, the attitudes of the children are very indifferent.

"It's fine to go back. Mother, you have been in Sanjiang Senior Officials University since you were a child, and you have special feelings for every plant and tree there. It's human nature for fallen leaves to return to their roots. Anyway, we are all separated. If we want to see you in the future, it will be a big deal. It’s just a few days’ journey, no big deal.”

Little Yan and Xi are all used to running on horseback, so they are used to riding on horseback.

With the support of the children, Harue felt relieved and began to prepare his luggage.

Because they didn't plan to mobilize the crowd too much, they simply brought a few bags, then brought a few personal attendants, and then brought a few grandchildren by their side, and set off.

Chunzhi has embarked on many journeys in his life, even traveling thousands of miles from the capital to Liangzhou.But this part of the journey back to her hometown is so long for her, she always feels as if she has never reached the end.

And when I entered Sanjiang Province, and then entered Yuqing County at the bottom, and continued to walk down, another feeling called being close to the hometown came to my heart.

Suddenly she was frightened.

"Are you afraid? Why do I feel a little scared in my heart?" At this time, Chai Dong suddenly gave her a bleak smile, "Otherwise, you can send me back to Wangjia Village first! Anyway, you are the eldest princess, with a noble status, and the person who brought me with you Some more. With you protecting me, I can feel more at ease."

Will he know what it's like to be afraid?Chunzhi suddenly wanted to laugh.

But by coincidence, she still nodded. "good."

In fact, she also wanted to visit Wangjiacun.After all, she also spent seven or eight years there.That was the beginning stage of her life.Now that she is getting older, she will always dream about the past, and the ups and downs in Wangjia Village will always inadvertently break into her dreams.

Therefore, the two people who were supposed to part ways when they left the county seat rushed to Shitong Town together, and then arrived at the entrance of Wangjia Village quietly.

But they never thought that when they arrived at the entrance of the village, their carriages and horses would be stopped by someone.

"Who are you? What are you doing sneaking into our village? Call back quickly. If you don't answer honestly, I will arrest you and go to the official. The county magistrate knows my family very well. As long as I give an order, he can Open up your ass!"
