Chapter 271

After all, Cha Xiu's stay or not is the affairs of the elders, so Chen Muqing avoided: "...Tongyuansheng's manager is asking for a meeting, I'll go and see!"

The eldest wife took the opportunity to say, "Let me go with you - I also want to see why Tongyuansheng is fighting for business with others."

All the governments in Nanxunfang have to set up shops on credit, and most of them are century-old brands. Wang Wenhui wants to steal other people's business, but without any means or characteristics, it is impossible.

Chen Muqing knew that the eldest wife didn't want to stay here to watch the messy things, so he smiled and said, "The eldest wife helped me to bet the formation. It would be great. Although I borrowed the silver to Wang Wenhui, I hope she could make money and pay back the money. I hope Tongyuansheng's business will be prosperous!"

Xiao Zhao opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but Chen Muqing had already helped the eldest lady walk out.

Master Zheng San looked at it and smiled: "I, a fake uncle, will not stay here and be annoying..." As he said that, he hurried away.

Xiao Zhao and Cha Xiu and Xiao Cheng were left in the room.

"You will take your mother to Liansheng Inn to rest!" Xiao Zhao's expression was a little tired.

"Dad..." Xiao Cheng looked shocked.

Xiao Zhao waved his hand, with a little depressed expression: "We will set off for Yangzhou tomorrow."

The surprise on Xiao Cheng's face turned into a surprise: "Dad..."

Xiao Zhao walked out with heavy steps.

*******

The eldest lady suddenly stopped halfway: "I am a little tired, so I won't go to see Tongyuansheng's manager with you!"

Chen Muqing understood the eldest wife's mood very well and said with a smile: "You are in poor health, so you can rest more! Tongyuansheng is just here to say hello and let us take care of the business. I can handle these small things well!"

The eldest lady nodded with a smile and said to Master Zheng San who had been following them, "Third brother, please accompany me back to the house!"

Master Zheng San was stunned, but he quickly responded respectfully.

Chen Muqing went to the account room.

Tongyuansheng's manager was a middle-aged man in his forties. He claimed that he was named Wang and said that he had come to ask Chen Muqing for peace by Wang Wenhui. If there was anything in the future, he could ask Tongyuansheng to do it.

Chen Muqing responded, asked about Tongyuansheng's situation, and brought tea to the eldest wife's place.

Knowing that the eldest wife had already rested, Master Zheng San returned to his residence, and Chen Muqing also returned to his wing room - she wrote a letter to Xiao Sa and told him everything that had happened in the past few days.

As it was written, Yingfen came to see her and told Chen Muqing the conversation between Xiao Zhao and Xiao Cheng: "...If the eldest lady asks, what should we say!"

Chen Muqing was a little sad, and was silent for a while, and said, "Just tell the truth!"

"I understand!" Yingfan sighed softly, "Why did this happen?"

Chen Muqing also smiled bitterly.

At night, she took the child to pay tribute to the eldest wife, who suddenly comforted Chen Muqing: "You don't need to be sad for me. I'm pretty good."

Chen Muqing couldn't say anything, so he had to nod.

The next day, Xiao Zhao said only to the eldest lady, "Wait for me" and left the Fourth Zhiyuan.

The eldest lady couldn't help but chased after her and whispered to Xiao Zhao's back: "Master, don't worry about me. You'd better deal with Xiaoshan's affairs with peace of mind?"

Xiao Zhao turned around and waved to the eldest lady, got on the horse with a smile, and left with his follower.

The eldest lady smiled helplessly, thinking about whether to send Master Zheng San to say that he would not come to see him, so as not to attract tea show again, but heard from Chen Muqing that 60,000 yuan men gathered in Liangshan. The emperor ordered Xiao Sa to serve as the general of Sichuan to be responsible for the defense of Gansu and Sichuan, which caused the impeachment of the censor, who believed that Xiao Sa's military power was too heavy and did not conform to the convention.

The emperor kept the memorial and refused to send it.

The eldest wife was extremely worried: "The emperor listened to the censors' nagging every day. Will he change his mind one day?"

Chen Muqing comforted the eldest wife: "It won't be a problem - the emperor trusts his husband very much!"

"What if I don't trust one day?" the eldest lady murmured in a low voice, "Fugui is indeed a dangerous person..."

Chen Muqing smiled bitterly, and thought that he hadn't returned to his parents' home for a long time, so he discussed with his eldest wife to go to the Shen family for a day: "...you can also see Sister Jingshu and Brother Tai."

The eldest wife was a little hesitant - at that time, it was a more cautious thing to visit the in-laws.

When Yueying heard that she was going to her grandfather's house, she was so happy that she stopped practicing her skills. Seeing the eldest lady pondering there, she stepped forward and held the eldest lady's hand: "Grandma, big grandma, let's go. Brother is going too!"

The eldest lady was amused by Yueying and laughed: "My brother is going too, why didn't I listen to Ziyang?"

Ziyang spoke earlier than Yueying and spoke very clearly, but he was just a child over one year old, and his emotions were too complicated and he could not express them - the eldest wife was playing with Yueying.

Yueying said seriously, "Brother said to me!"

"Oh!" The eldest lady raised her eyebrows, asked Ziyang to hug her, and asked Ziyang with a smile, "Ziyang, your sister said you were going to my grandfather's house, right?"

Ziyang could not understand these things, but just smiled at the eldest wife.

Yueying nodded aside: "Big grandma, my brother told me that he is going to my grandfather's house too."

"Just go by yourself!" The eldest lady smiled and hugged Ziyang in her arms, "and she also wanted to drag her brother into the water..."

"Really!" Yueying's eyes were bright, "You don't understand, you are an adult, you don't understand our words."

The eldest lady laughed: "It's really like Xiao Sa when she was a child. Even if it's wrong, it's right..."

Chen Muqing also laughed and taught Yueying a lesson: "If you want to go, say you want to go. You can't use others as an excuse. I don't like this."

Yueying blinked her big eyes and nodded: "Mom, I want to go to my grandfather's house. I want to take my brother with me too. Grandpa hasn't seen me and my brother for so long, so he must have missed us. There are also uncle Dashe, brother Tai, aunt, uncle..."

"Look at this child!" The eldest lady smiled and pointed at Yueying, "I have so many ideas!"

Everyone was talking and laughing, and the eldest lady couldn't bear to say anything about the children, so she decided to follow Chen Muqing to visit relatives at the Shen family.

Shi Jingshu knew that Chen Muqing was coming, so she was naturally very happy. Dashe even took a leave specially and asked someone to prepare food and drink early. Several people talked and laughed, and it was a lively day.

When I got home in the evening, I received an invitation from Wei, saying that I wanted to invite my eldest wife. Chen Muqing and the children went to Sanfeng'an to eat vegetarian dishes. Sanfeng'an was built on Sanfeng Mountain not far from Alfalfa Mountain. The mountain was full of yellow pine trees. Every autumn, the leaves all over the mountains are as red as flames.

"Sanfeng'an's pickled vegetables are also very famous." Chen Muqing smiled, "especially the pickled snow is red, fragrant and crispy, green, and it looks good."

"Then go!" The eldest lady smiled, thinking of the happy look of Yueying and Ziyang running around in the back garden of the Shen family. "It will be cold in a few days, and the children can't run outside like this."

Chen Muqing agreed with a smile and asked the mother who gave the post to thank Wei for her on her behalf. Yingfen gave another liang of silver. Her mother thanked her with a smile and went back to reply to Wei.

A few days later, she received a reply from Xiao Sa.

Xiao Sa was very unhappy about Xiao Cheng taking Cha Xiu to his house to find Xiao Zhao: "... Since it was written, it was the eldest wife's son, so he should have brought his wife to serve him. How could he take his biological mother? If you encounter such a thing in the future, you don't have to worry about it. It is the right thing to teach him a lesson." He also talked about his situation when he went to Sichuan, "In the past, some people heard of my reputation. He is a hero in the army. I won several battles in Gansu, and I was like an instructor. Sometimes it was more convenient than in Gansu.

Chen Muqing felt relieved and hurriedly took the letter to the eldest lady to show it - she wanted the eldest lady to know Xiao Sa's attitude towards the tea show and her current safety.

The eldest lady looked slightly wet.

Chen Muqing muttered in his heart: Fortunately, he became so concise that he did not tell Xiao Cheng's attitude towards Zheng Sanye. If he said that, Xiao Sa would not know what would be angry.

*******

After choosing a good day, Chen Muqing brought Yueying and Ziyang, while Wei took Brother Bao, the mothers, maids and guards from both families, and went to Sanfeng Mountain to a mighty journey.

The host of Sanfeng's temple closed the mountain gate and greeted them at the foot of the mountain. After having a vegetarian meal, the host accompanied the eldest wife, Chen Muqing and Wei to the back mountain to enjoy the scenery.

That day, the sun happened to be out, and there was no wind. Walking on the back slope of Sanfeng'an, the cold air and the brightness of the mountains made people feel refreshed.

"I'm really right!" The eldest lady closed her eyes and took a breath, "I'd better go out for a walk."

Wei nodded: "Who said it was not? When I was a girl, I liked to come here. Later, when I got older, my family refused to let me come out. They all said that they didn't enjoy the happiness when they were married at home. I think they had their own benefits. At least when they were a girl, they couldn't go wherever they wanted."

"This is also the wife's birth to wealth!" The host of Sanfeng'an carefully smiled, "If it were an ordinary family, how could there be such a blessing as a wife?"

After a few socializing words from the host, Wei politely refused the host's accompanying him.

Behind the mountain, they guarded the Dai family and Xiao family's servants and guarded the hospital. The host was not afraid of something. He smiled and socialized for a few words, and then took the little nun around him back to the temple.

"This host is very sour." Wei smiled and took Chen Muqing's hand, "I feel much more relaxed when she leaves."

Everyone laughed.

Seeing Wei like that, the eldest lady seemed to be particularly intimate with Chen Muqing. She also thought that Wei and Shen Muqing were both young people and had common topics, so she wanted to avoid them and give them space. So she stepped forward a few steps to Yueying, pointed to a stone tablet not far ahead and said, "Yueying, let's go there to see!"

Yueying was wearing a red silk jacket inside and a white fox cloak covered with her outside. Her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque and her smile was bright, making people lit up their eyes when they looked at her.

When the eldest lady said this, she shook the magpie's hand away and ran towards the stone tablet in front.

The eldest lady was startled and said quickly: "Slow down, slow down, be careful of falling."

"Sister, sister..." Ziyang twisted around in his mother's arms, calling out Yueying.
