Blessed

Chapter 46
Chen Yue'e huddled between the fluffy and soft quilt. She had never slept on such a comfortable bed. She washed her body clean, and her nostrils were full of fruity scent. She held the quilt tightly and said to Bai Ji, "No, Me, I hope my mother won't recognize him anymore, I don't want such a father."

She had no memory of Chen Dalian when she left, and she had only been close to her mother these years. Her grandparents treated her badly and disliked her as a girl, but only liked the two cousins ​​born to her aunt.The life of the two mothers and daughters in their hometown is not easy.Anyway, she didn't have much affection for such a man, she was just worried that her mother wouldn't think about it.

Baiji happily held her hand under the quilt, "Don't worry, the girl will be able to save your mother, you don't know, the fourth girl in our family is the most blessed." When Chen Yue'e said it again, Chen Yue'e was dumbfounded.

"By the way." After Baiji finished speaking, she asked very puzzled, "Why does your mother know how to make filigree inlays? It's something that is going extinct soon." She asked frankly, and felt that there was no need to lie to others, even her own girl. At that time, I will also tell the mother and daughter that filigree inlay is a very powerful skill, and if you can have such a skill, you will be invited as honored guests by many noble families in Shanghai.

Chen Yue'e didn't hide it, "My mother learned from a grandma Shi when she was a child, and she didn't know where she came from. I heard from my mother that Grandma Shi, who was alone when my mother was a child, moved to live in the village. People in the village were exclusive. My mother saw that my grandma was pitiful, so she secretly helped her a lot. When my mother was eight years old, she began to teach my mother how to make jewelry. It’s filigree inlay, and grandma told my mother that in such a small place, filigree inlay must never be known, unless you can meet a wise master in the future..."

She is still thinking about it, "My mother has studied it for more than ten years, and I have learned a little from Grandma Shi. I only learned filigree inlay at the beginning, and Grandma Shi passed away. Our family has a hard life. All these years, my mother supported me and my grandparents by working in the jewelry shop. On the way here, my mother also said that if I find my father, I will find a rich family to recommend myself, and life will be better by then. "

Bai Ji said, "That's a skill that everyone is vying for, don't worry, you and your mother will definitely enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future. Well, it's getting late, let's go to bed early, and your mother's affairs should be settled tomorrow." There's news."

However, Chen Yue'e couldn't fall asleep for a long time, thinking about her mother, about that so-called father, and about Fuchang County Lord.

It’s November, and it’s a little chilly when I got up early. Yesterday, it was windy all night. When I got up early, Licorice found a lotus-colored pipa skirt and thin jacket skirt for Yuzhuer to wear, and said, “Girl, it’s a bit cold today. You only need a cloak." From the mahogany cabinet with three cabinets, she took a brocade and feather satin cloak with emerald patterns and tied it on Yuzhu.

These clothes and cloaks were rushed out this year, life in the mansion is a lot more generous, each house and courtyard bought maids and women, and staff were added to the kitchen, and the Mu family even bought a lot of furniture and furniture in the fourth girl's room. Clothes and materials are also more popular nowadays.

Licorice combed Yuzhu's hair in a bun, wrapped it with red coral strings of rice beads and flowers, and put on a gold collar. Yuzhu thought it was too heavy, so she picked a necklace of coral beads from the makeup box and put it on. The red coral string rice beads and bead flowers on the top are set against each other.

The fried cashew nuts, bean paste cake, hot and sour melon strips, soup dumplings, crystal plum blossom buns, lotus seed porridge and two stir-fried vegetables prepared by the kitchen today are prepared by the big kitchen in the morning. If you want to eat, let the maid go directly to the kitchen After taking it, Yuzhu ate two bean paste cakes, a bowl of high soup dumplings and some vegetarian dishes, and then asked Licorice, "The little girl can eat?"

Licorice said with a smile, "Don't worry, girl. Although the girl Baiji is nagging, she is still delicate. She will treat Miss Chen well. I heard from her that Miss Chen ate some crystal plum blossom buns in the morning." There are a lot of them, and the mother and daughter of the Chen family have such craftsmanship, so naturally they should not be treated by the current people.

Yuzhu asked again, "Where's Brother Xie?"

"Master Xie went out early in the morning to investigate the affairs of the Chen family."

Yuzhu nodded, "When Brother Xie comes back, you must tell me immediately." She guessed that Brother Xie should come back when she was taking a nap.

Sure enough, Xie Che didn't come back until after a nap, Licorice called Yuzhu softly and got up, Yuzhu rubbed her eyes sleepily, and said softly, "Licorice, help me get dressed, I'll go to Brother Xie and ask."

Licorice put clothes on Yuzhu, tied her cloak and boots, and led her all the way to Xie Che's room.

Licorice went to knock on the door, and Xie Che answered from inside, "Come in."

The two went in and saw Xie Che writing something in front of the desk, Xie Che looked up and saw it was Yuzhu, he got up and walked over to pick her up, "Why is Jiao Jiao here?"

After waving her hand to let the licorice back down first, Yuzhu put her arms around Xie Che's neck, let him sit on the couch with her arms around her, and asked, "Brother Che, how is the investigation of the Chen family going?"

Xie Che took the hot tea on the table and asked Yuzhu to hold it to warm his hands, sat down beside her and said, "The investigation is clear, Chen Dalian is not very capable, and the wife he married has something to do with the Duke of Zhen's residence. "

"Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion?" Yuzhu held the teacup and covered her hands, she was very surprised, "Isn't that the princess's house?"

Xie Che pinched her bulging cheeks, and chuckled, "Where are you thinking? If they are so capable, they really want to have a relationship with the master of the house, and they won't fancy a poor and poor person who goes to the capital to beg for a living." Chen Dalian."

Yuzhu grabbed Xie Che's sleeve, "Brother Che, tell me quickly what's going on."

Only then did Xie Che tell the story. The family name of Chen Dalian's wife was Tian, ​​and the Tian family said it had something to do with the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. In fact, it was the house of Madam Tian's natal cousin, an old servant next to Mrs. Liu. Fang is the ancestor's grandfather is a surname.

For this reason, they opened a few jewelry shops in the capital, claiming that they had some relationship with the Zhen Guo government, and they lived a pretty good life in the capital, with more than enough money.People like the Tian family definitely look down on Chen Dalian, but the daughter of the Tian family is attracted to him, because he will not marry and cause trouble, the Tian family can't do it, and it's not only the only daughter, there are two sons in the family, so it is impossible to recruit him. In order to be the door-to-door son-in-law, he gave his daughter a dowry and asked her to marry Chen Dalian.

This Tian family has a lot of dowries, and there is a shop, a few acres of fertile land. When she married Chen Dalian, she knew that there were parents and a wife in his hometown. When she married him, he asked him to cut off that side. I really haven't contacted there, everyone thought Tian was the wife of the main house.

Yuzhu was surprised, "Then why did the Tian family choose a man of such character that he could abandon his original daughters for the sake of wealth, and if greater wealth is in front of him in the future, he will have to abandon them?"

Xie Che said with a smile, "That's not it, Tian's is not even as good as Jiaojiao, I can't think of such a reason."

Yuzhu asked again, "Then can this matter be resolved?"

"Of course it's easy to solve." Xie Che saw that the tea in her teacup had cooled down, so he got up and gave her a cup of hot tea to continue to hold. Things that can't be changed are easy to verify. If Chen Dalian and Tian are not afraid of breaking things up, go ahead and sue the officials. Tian is slandering people. The child in her belly is fine, and the crime of harm is not counted. One wife and one concubine It can only be regarded as a housework, even if they want to sue the officials, after everyone knows about the trouble, Qiu Erniang will be released after a few boards, and my teacher and I will get rid of the relationship and clear the official errands. Less than half of Qiu Erniang."

Yuzhu pondered for a while and said, "Brother Che, it shouldn't be difficult to solve this matter, right?"

Xie Che nodded.

Yuzhu said, "Then you don't have to bother Dad. I asked Licorice to take the little girl to the Ministry of Justice to visit Qiu Erniang and ask her what she wanted. If she wanted to make a fuss, it's okay. She will still belong to Chen Dalian after she comes back. Zheng wife, if you don't want to make a fuss and want to reconcile, you can talk to Chen Dalian and Tian's, secretly reconcile, and let them out without suing the officials."

Xie Che laughed and said, "That's not acceptable. Since I have reported to the police and want to withdraw the case, the person who reported to the official will be punished."

Yuzhu's eyes were astonishingly bright, with a hint of teasing, "Then let them choose for themselves." Being a mother is strong, she believes that Qiu Erniang will reconcile for the sake of her daughter, and Tian will not want this matter to cause trouble all over the city. Everyone knows, otherwise the news about her being a concubine would spread, what face would there be?He will definitely choose to go private, and if Chen Dalian is private, he has to go back to the government to take down the case.

"It's all pretty good."

Xie Che carried Yuzhu back to the room, and Yuzhu directly asked Licorice to lead Chen Yue'e to visit Qiu Erniang in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. The railing said, "Yue'e, mother's good daughter, are you okay?"

Chen Yue'e shook her head, her eyes were red, and she briefly told about the matter of finding Lord Fuchang County yesterday, Licorice also passed on Yuzhu's words, "Er Niang, our girl said, if you want to continue living with Chen Dalian after you go out, it's okay If you don't want to go on, if you want to reconcile, our girl can also help you, let Chen Dalian withdraw the lawsuit by himself, you can also can be released."

Qiu Erniang was stunned, clutching her hands tightly, what should she do?Just reconcile?She is not reconciled, how can she be reconciled to this result after serving her in-laws at home for eight years?But if we don't get along, what can we do if we go out and live with him?Where can the Tian family accommodate Yue'e?

Licorice said softly, "Our girl also said that with your craftsmanship, after you go out, greater glory and wealth are waiting for you, and there are more people supporting you. The Chen Jiatian family is not enough to see, Er Niang, you How to choose."
