But Chen Zhen didn't think so.

The first thing he did after receiving the imperial edict was to send Aunt Chen back to the Chen family.

Aunt Chen was stunned at that time. When she realized that Chen Zhen had already compiled a letter and sent it to Chen's father's office in Qiantang.

She didn't eat or drink, and lay on the bed and cried loudly.

After Chen Muqing found out, he asked Mr. Ouyang to persuade Chen Zhen, and he went to Liuyiyuan.

She doesn't like Aunt Chen, and she sympathizes with Li... But she even knows that Aunt Chen is Dashe's mother, and Chen Zhen needs a companion when he is old. It might be a good thing to use this to make Aunt Chen change something.

"Auntie, you are young, but the master is already in his late age. I also know your concerns, I am afraid that the new wife will be bad to you after the master re-strings; I am afraid that the master will go in front of you, Dashe is young and bullied... After all, I just want to have a support." Chen Muqing sat beside the bed and persuaded her.

Aunt Chen looked at Chen Muqing with her swollen eyes, and then continued to cry on the bed - but the voice was smaller than before.

"Don't cry! Since I'm here to see you, I just don't want any conflicts between you and the master... We have chosen to say anything. If you can solve it, we will solve it. If you can't solve it, we will discuss what to do."

Aunt Chen sat up, covered her eyes with a handkerchief from time to time, and sobbed.

"Auntie, you are a wise man, let me tell you. Since I stepped into the Shen family, I have always been respectful to my wife and the master, but I don't understand why the master can't tolerate me after my wife dies?"

Maybe it’s because of guilt!

Chen Muqing thought.

"That's because you are too unscrupulous!" Chen Muqing refused to change his sternness. "He helped the fourth girl bring things in and collected the man's money. You are also from an official family. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Aunt Chen lowered her head and defended her: "I, didn't I burn the letter?"

"This is not a question of whether to burn or not, it is a question of your principles of dealing with things." Chen Muqing said bluntly, "I can understand that you are uneasy. Even the Jiangnan shop's tent, I turned a blind eye. Do you know why?"

Aunt Chen looked at Chen Muqing in surprise.

"That's because when the Shen family is in trouble, you can still take care of your wife with all your heart." Chen Muqing's eyebrows were cold, "If a family wants to prosper, you must first be united. To be honest, if you only care about yourself, I also agree to send you back to the Chen family."

"No, no, no! I won't go back!" Aunt Chen burst into tears, "I don't want to be separated from the big house, I don't want to be able to raise my head for the rest of my life..." As she said that, she suddenly knelt down for Chen Muqing, "Auntie, please ask the master for a love, saying that I will never dare again... I was obsessed with the ghost at that time..."

"Since that's the case, why don't you just put away a ruby ​​earring?"

Aunt Chen showed a shy and timid expression.

Chen Muqing's heart thumped and shouted loudly: "Are you so irrelevant to that Dai Gui...?"

"No, no." Aunt Chen's face turned pale and she waved her hands repeatedly, "No, I have only seen Dai Gui's side... If you don't believe me, ask Xianglian, no, no, no, you ask Mom Wang... Ask the mothers in our yard..." She cried and sweared, "No, I really don't..."

In ancient times, women had affair, and the difficulty was too high - because there were always a large group of people around them, especially women like Aunt Chen who had no "power" at home.

Chen Muqing just thought Aunt Chen's expression was too strange, and she thought of the delicate eyebrows and eyes of Fake Dai Gui...

But when Aunt Chen saw that Chen Muqing was slow to speak, she was really afraid that this would be done.

She believed that the third young master of the Liang family had an affair with his cousin, but she didn't believe it... Which woman would be so stupid? Who knows what methods did this aunt in her family use? Others don't know, but she has witnessed Li's methods with her own eyes...

"It was the fourth girl who told me that Dai Gui liked was her..." As she said that, she looked at Chen Muqing with some timidity, "But the elders hope that the Shen family will get married...so they don't tell their wife... When she returns to Taicang and leaves the bride, the Dai family will go to propose marriage...so I collected the three thousand taels of silver, saying it was a thank you..."

Chen Muqing slapped the kang table with a slap: "You believe whatever she says!"

Aunt Chen whispered, "I, I didn't believe it at first. On the day you got married, Dai Gui came to me in person, exactly the same as what the Fourth Girl said... I asked me to deliver something to the Fourth Girl... I gave it!"

Chen Muqing was so angry that she couldn't say a word, so she simply told her about Chen Yuerong's disappearance.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Aunt Chen looked frightened and held Chen Muqing's hand, "You lied to me! You lied to me!" As he said that, tears fell down.

It's not just a pseudo-sadness to look like this.

Chen Muqing couldn't help but sigh softly.

"We have kept this matter secretly from Taicang's hometown or Kyoto, so don't talk nonsense!"

Aunt Chen nodded repeatedly: "Miss, I really didn't mean it... I opened the letter and read it. It was a love poem. I never mentioned the elopement... Otherwise, I would definitely tell my wife about this. I am not that confused person!"

"So you need to be more careful in your actions in the future." Chen Muqing advised her, "You are Dashe's biological mother, Dashe is my only brother. We are a family. If we can't be united, the Shen family will have to lose."

Aunt Chen nodded, Chen Muqing stood up and said, "Think about what I said."

After leaving Liuyiyuan, she went to the main room.

Chengxiang replied, "The master has not come back yet!" Then she greeted her and sat by the kang next to the window.

Chen Muqing and Chen Zhen were chatting with Chengxiang: "Mrs. I am no longer here. You and Cuilu have served your wife, but are you planning to do so?"

Since the wife left, the two maids in Li's house, Chengxiang and Cuilu had no backbone. Although they still served in the main house as before, it was better to do it in Li's hands. Everything had a constitution. At that time, the maid in Li was released at the age of 18, but now she and Cuilu are both old, but no one decides for them.

Hearing Chen Muqing say this, Chengxiang kneeled down: "Auntie, I'll listen to you!"

Chen Muqing nodded: "Do you want to stay in the mansion or get married?"

Orange Xiang's face turned red: "I, I want to stay in the mansion!"

"Is there anything I like?"

Orange Xiang lowered her head: "I like others, but others may not like me!"

"You tell me, I'll help you see!"

The orange fragrance sounds like a mosquito, and it vomits a person's name - Shuixiang.

Chen Muqing nodded, Cui Lu outside said, "Auntie, the master is back!"

She hurriedly said, "You ask Cuilu, I have an arrangement too!"

Orange Xiang left with gratitude.

Chen Zhen looked calm and calm, and he couldn't tell that he had just had a drink with Mr. Ouyang.

The father and daughter sat down with the main and secondary. Before Chen Muqing could speak, Chen Zhen said, "Are you here to plead for Aunt Chen?"

Chen Muqing smiled and said, "Master, he has a torch-like look!"

"Don't be careless here..." Chen Zhen sent all the people in the house, "I heard from Mother Wang that you went to Liuyiyuan, do you want to tell me about Aunt Chen?"

Chen Muqing nodded: "Give her a chance!"

Chen Zhen disagreed: "You are too soft-hearted!"

Chen Muqing laughed: "A good thing has happened, but there is good thing!"

Chen Zhen shook his head: "You really want to leave Aunt Chen behind? She is so stupid when doing things!"

Chen Muqing nodded with a smile.

"Tell me, what are some good ideas!"

Chen Muqing pondered and said, "Mom Wang is old. This time we go back to Jiangnan, let Mom Wang and General Manager Wang leave the house!"

Chen Zhen thought for a moment and said, "You mean, let Jie Hong lead the family?"

Chen Muqing nodded: "Speaking of this, my aunt is also a good person. Especially in the Prison Temple, she can still do her duty - we might as well give this family to her! And we will also explain some things to her so that she will not be at ease."

"Explain it clearly?" Chen Zhen was stunned.

"Yes, explain it clearly." Chen Muqing smiled, "For example, do you have any plans to re-string? If you don't re-string, how will you arrange your family affairs in a hundred years? If you re-string, how will you arrange your family affairs... Everyone sit down and explain clearly. I think Aunt Chen may not feel so insecure!"

Who knew that Chen Zhen snorted coldly and said, "What are the best arrangements? I am so old and have children, what are you going to do? And the family affairs will be allocated when my wife is here..."

Chen Muqing couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Master, what about Aunt Chen? She is much younger than you? You always have to have a plan for her, right?"

Chen Zhen really has no plans.

He was stunned when he heard this, and after a while, he said in a confused tone: "She is naturally following Dashe... and I am not going to let her keep her chastity for me. If you meet someone suitable in the future, you will marry again..."

"Is this also an arrangement?" Chen Muqing smiled bitterly, "If you talk to Aunt Chen like this, Chen Jie Niang would probably feel better!"

Chen Zhen wanted to speak but stopped.

Chen Muqing sighed deeply.

It’s not a big fault for Aunt Chen’s jealousy when she sees money. She has such a husband who doesn’t find a way to make some money and can’t count on others!

She pondered, "I'll give you an opinion, what do you think?"

Chen Zhen nodded hesitantly.

"As you said, when the wife was there, she divided the property of the family," Chen Muqing smiled, "I am the beneficiary and have no opinions at all." As he said that, he blinked at Chen Zhen.

Chen Zhen was amused by his daughter's appearance, and the atmosphere that was a little tense just now became much more relaxed.

"I let Aunt Chen take charge of the family. I have calculated that the family's social expenses are much less than before, and 1,200 taels of silver a year is enough to maintain. I live at home and pay 600 taels of silver to Gongzhong every year - but this does not include the monthly routine of accompanying the house, the clothes of the four seasons, and the rewards during festivals. What do you think?"

Chen Zhen frowned: "Thus, you will have at least 1,000 taels of silver a year to maintain your expenses..."

"It's empty to sit and eat the mountains." Chen Muqing smiled sly, "so I want to manage the tea shop in Baizhifang well... I believe it will definitely be done."
