Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

What Chu Lingxuan meant was to let Chen Ming keep the two thousand taels of silver to buy some property for himself. He felt that everyone in the neighborhood knew that Chen Afu was not Chen Ming's biological daughter, and he could not let others think that the daughter he raised had married into a wealthy family and enjoyed happiness, and asked his adoptive father to pay for such a large dowry. In this way, both the Chu family and Chen Afu will easily cause gossip.

Before, Chen Afu had thought that before getting married, he would leave another two thousand silver to Chen Ming to make their life easier.

She gave a lot of money to Chen Ming privately, mainly because she was afraid of being missed by Chen Ye and Hu. Outsiders only know that the 100 acres of land in Luyuan and Laohuai Village in Zhongning County were given by Chen Afu. They don't know anything else, including the share money in the restaurant and the money Chen Ming bought for his dowry. Chen Ye's family would never tell outsiders that Chen Afu helped Chen Ming get the shares in Xinglong Restaurant in Dingzhou Prefecture, and they didn't even say that Dafang got the shares for free.

Not only Mrs. Hu's eyes were wide open to pay attention to Chen Ming's purse, but all the nearby villagers were also watching Chen Afu's performance with their eyes wide open, wanting to see if she was "repaying her kindness".

A poor family accidentally picked up a "golden phoenix". When this "golden phoenix" was about to fly into other people's homes, what would it leave behind for the people who took her in...

No matter how much you give Chen Ming, as long as outsiders don't know about it, they will think that Chen Ming is not worth it. This is public psychology. She doesn't care what others think, but local young man Chu Lingxuan cannot care about his wife's reputation.

But Chen Ming was very stubborn this time and refused to keep the two thousand taels of silver as the bride price. He said that he wanted to set an example to everyone in the Chen family, including A Lu, and never take anything that shouldn't be taken.

Of course, he didn't want Chen Afu to be criticized. After thinking for a while, he said, "One code equals one code. I won't leave a penny of the bride price from the Chu family, but Ah Fu can take out the same amount of silver and ask Old Man Zeng to buy some fields for me. Let everyone know, Ah Fu Fu had honored me so much before he got married, and he is a good boy who remembers love."

When Chen Afu heard this, it was better. The adoptive father and daughter, one is affectionate and the other is righteous.

At noon, Chen Afu, mother and son, and Chu Hanyan would have dinner in Luyuan. After Chu Lingxuan delivered the betrothal gift, he returned to Dingzhou Mansion to prepare for the trip to the capital.

When Dabao came to Luyuan, he directly ignored these betrothal gifts. Not only did he not ask any more questions, he didn't even look at them.

While eating, Dabao told Chen Alu with great interest what his husband had said this morning. Everyone could see that his mouth was smiling, but his eye circles were red, and he was forcing a smile.

Halfway through the meal, he said he wanted to go to the hut. When he came out of the hut, his eye circles were even redder.

Seeing him like this, Chen Afu, Wang, and Chen Ming felt very uncomfortable.

Wang stroked his head and said, "Dabao, after your mother gets married, not only will she love you as before, your grandfather and uncle and I will also love you as before. Your life will not be any different." .”

A Lu said, "The only difference is that you have a father and I have a brother-in-law, which is even better."

Chu Hanyan quickly said, "There is another difference. My brother has a sister, and my uncle has a niece."

Of these two children, one is silly and the other is too smart.

Everyone laughed.

Dabao also smiled. In my mind, it’s not just these two differences, it’s all different, okay? After laughing, he put down his chopsticks and said, "Mom, I have diarrhea and don't want to eat."

Chen Afu sighed, "Then don't eat. Go back and have a rest. Don't go to class this afternoon either. Mom will ask someone to ask for leave for you."

Dabao got off the kang and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the house first. You guys eat slowly."

After saying that, he lowered his head and left.

Chu Hanyan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Chen Afu. Maybe Dabao wants to be alone for a while, so let him think about it.

Chu Xiaoniu and Qiuyue knew that their young master was in a bad mood today, so they did not dare to get too close to him, so they only followed him from a distance.

Chen Dabao returned to his room, locked the door, lay on the bed, covered his head with the quilt, and began to cry.

He heard the noise while he was in class and knew that Father Chu had gone to Luyuan to hire someone.

In the past few days, his mother had talked to him a lot, telling him that she would still like him after getting married and that he would be happier in the future.

His mother wanted to go to the capital to marry Father Chu. Not only could she not take him with her, but she also couldn't take his sister with her. She also asked him to take his sister and wait for them at home...

He knew that the day he feared was coming soon, whether he wanted it or not. His mother is getting married. Her mother will no longer be his mother alone. She is also the mother of sister Yan'er, the daughter-in-law of Father Chu, the daughter-in-law of Abbot Liao Chen, and the grandson-daughter-in-law of Mr. Chu...

From now on, the family is not just him and his mother, but a whole family. The person his mother is closest to and dearest to is not him, but Father Chu.

Do you think he doesn't know? He knows a lot, even more than his uncle.

Husband and wife are two people who will never be separated. Even if my great-grandma lives in the same courtyard as my great-grandpa, she won’t sleep in the same room. The one who sleeps in the same room as my great-grandpa is his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Hu. The person sleeping in the same room as Uncle Agui was not his mother Hu, but his daughter-in-law Gao.

Thinking of the picture he gave to his mother, he felt even more uncomfortable. He was afraid that he would cry too loudly, so he quickly covered his mouth with the quilt.

He and his mother will not hold hands forever, there will always be a day when they let go. And the one who can always hold hands with mother is Father Chu.

He knew that his mother's love for him would not change, and he also knew that Father Chu was a good man, but he just didn't like another man coming between him and his mother.

However, he is not my mother's son-in-law, nor her biological son. He is just an orphan picked up by my grandma in the woods! He has no right to object, even if he is unhappy.

It was very, very difficult for his mother to be so kind to him. He had heard that there was a fierce woman in Sheungshui Village who broke her ex-stepson's legs, and that his grandma's stepmother sold her little brother for five taels of silver. These bad women are so cruel to their sons who are not their own sons, but his mother is so kind and treats him a thousand good things and ten thousand good things.

He cannot be dissatisfied and cannot displease his mother. From now on, we must not displease Father Chu...

Chen Afu took Chu Hanyan back to Fuyuan and saw Qiuyue standing by the window of the east bedroom, listening to what was going on inside.

Qiuyue saw Chen Afu coming back, and tiptoed to Chen Afu, whispering, "Miss, I just heard my brother crying for a while while covering his quilt. There is no movement now. He must have fallen asleep."

Chen Afu felt very sad after hearing this, and asked Qiaoer to take Chu Hanyan to the upper room to rest, while she went to the east wing.
