868 Chapter 868-chase
In June, the weather was already very hot. Madam li sent someone to the village to invite Cai Xiaolian to town.
In a teahouse on Liansheng Street, Madam li saw her good friend, whom she had not seen for more than a month, and felt a little emotional.
This month felt like a long time.
“Sister Luo, how is it? How’s Liansheng Street in Zhoujia town?” Cai Xiaolian sat down with a smile and asked.
“You’re personally in charge, so it’s naturally fine. You’re the best painter and the best businessman I’ve ever seen!” Mrs. Li gave him a thumbs up.
The two of them chatted like they used to and even had dinner together that night.
When Cai Xiaolian returned to the village, Madam li pulled her and said, ” “My parents brought mu Yan and Shan ‘er back to the capital yesterday. The talisman given by the senior monk arrived two days ago.”
Cai Xiaolian was taken aback, and then she responded with an “Oh.”
“I don’t intend to go,” Mrs. Li added. He planned to stay in Qingzhou to accompany the old lady and to look after Huang ‘er and Huang’ er. To be honest, I’m not even sure if my father has anything to do with sister-in-law’s death. However, regardless of whether they’re related or not, Xun ‘er and Xun’ er aren’t married yet. The old lady is getting on in years, and I’m worried about them. Mu Yan and Shan ‘er are going to the capital. I’m not worried since their maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother will take care of them. It’s just that, little Lian, I, I want to ask you for a favor.”
Cai Xiaolian looked at her and didn’t answer.
Mrs. Li was silent for a while, then shook her head and smiled again. “Forget it. Little Lian, I wish you all the best to become the wife of the scholar and everything will go smoothly in the future! Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of the prefecture’s Lotus Street. You should go back now, it’s late.”
She wanted to ask Cai Xiaolian to talk to li Muyan or take care of her if she met him in the capital.
But, what right did she have to say all this? She had no right to say this.
Cai Xiaolian reached out and hugged Auntie Luo,”sister Luo, you’re good. Take good care of yourself.” I don’t regret making a friend like you.”
……
Duke Rong and his wife had brought Li Shan and Li Muyan into the capital. Lu Zheng knew about this news. The person he had arranged to be by Li Shan’s side had already become a cleaning maidservant in her courtyard.
Recently, Li Shan had not taken any action, and there was no news from the capital either. However, Lu Zheng did not let his guard down and continued to have people keep an eye on him.
When Cai Xiaolian came back, she mentioned it to Gu Nian. Gu Nian responded with an ” Oh ” without any other expression, as if she was listening to someone else.
No one knew if she was really fine.
On the seventh day of the seventh month, third uncle brought his wife and children over to celebrate his 16th birthday.
They had agreed that after Gu Nian’s birthday, Gu shouxin would leave for the capital to take the exam.
The twins were already three months old and looked exactly the same. Knowing that it was the autumn harvest, third aunt brought a servant girl and an old woman over to take care of the two children. She also gave them to Gu Ren of the first branch to take care of.
Gu Nian received another small gift from her family. This year, Gu Xin was playing the zither for her again. She had learned a song and was very familiar with it.
Although it was not as lively as last year’s coming-of-age ceremony, Gu Nian was still quite happy.
On the tenth day of the new year, Gu shouxin, his wife, and his third uncle were driven away by grandma Gu. Yes, they were driven away.
Grandma Gu was annoyed to hear her daughter scold her son-in-law every day!
As soon as his son-in-law was scolded, her brother Chuan would try to persuade him. Wasn’t he deliberately vexing the person?
So, she chased you away on the grounds that you had to go to the capital to adapt to the weather and water.
Before leaving, Gu shouxin and Lu Yang had a long talk all night, and no one knew what they talked about.
