Chu Yan left with a long sigh, and Shi Chunfen stood there alone, quietly staring at the dim light of the Buddhist hall.
In fact, she doesn't have any opinions. She is probably the least opinionated person in the Chu family. She chooses to support Chu Ling in joining the army, just like cooperating with him in the tea party, she just doesn't want to disappoint him.
She was like an ostrich, blindly burying her head in Chu Ling's arms and obeying all his commands.
As for whether the direction he directed was right or wrong, she never thought about it, nor did she dare to think about it.
Li Yan followed her and reminded her kindly: "Grandma, uncle doesn't eat much tonight, do you want to go give him something?"
Shi Chunquin nodded, "You go ahead and make arrangements."
Li Yan was startled and asked in confusion: "What about you, grandma?"
"I'll stay with him."
Chu Ling knelt in the Buddhist hall all night, and stayed outside the Buddhist hall all night on the equinox.
The Chu family is not a place where secrets can be hidden. As soon as it gets dark, people in each house come to inquire for information one after another in the name of caring. They cannot enter the Buddhist hall and dare not make trouble in front of the old lady, so they
One after another, people came to Shi Chunfen to ask about their welfare. The most frequently asked question was whether Chu Ling really wanted to join the army.
Shi Chunfen didn't know much more than they did, so he rejected their questions gently and distantly.
After she refused too many times, these people felt that she didn't know how to praise her. Chu Ling was the most outstanding son of their Chu family. Could it be that they would harm him?
Shi Chunfen really didn’t know if they would be together. It seemed that starting from Chu Ying, she no longer knew who she could trust in the Chu family?
Aunt Liu also came here. Compared with others, she was gentle and considerate from beginning to end. She didn't inquire too much about Chu Ling. She even sent pearls to calm the spring equinox.
Finally, Chu Ying's actions at the tea party couldn't help but be brought up, which made Shi Chunquin's mood that had just eased suddenly rise again.
"I have already asked Ying'er about the Flame Dragon Fish. It turns out that she made up this matter from beginning to end. Her purpose is just to embarrass you." Aunt Liu lowered her eyes, looking exhausted both physically and mentally. "
I don’t know when she became so bad. She did such despicable things just because she was jealous of you, my sister-in-law. Maybe it was my lack of discipline towards her that led to the current situation. I plan to send her to
Liuzhuang, wait for her to reflect on her mistakes and change her ways before taking her home."
"What?!" Shi Chunfen looked surprised.
Liuzhuang is the house where the Liu family originally gave Aunt Liu as her dowry. To show his pity for Aunt Liu, the elder transformed the house into a small summer resort. Every year, he would accompany Aunt Liu, mother and daughter there to rest for a few days.
, Aunt Liu sent Chu Ying there, almost cutting off all contact between her and the Chu family. She could no longer feel as comfortable as at home just for food and clothing.
"Aunt Liu, you don't have to do this..." Shi Chunfen muttered, "I had no intention of arguing with my second sister."
Aunt Liu smiled bitterly, "Just because you don't care about it doesn't mean she did nothing wrong. Today she can use her dirty tricks to plot against the family members, but tomorrow she will use even more despicable methods to deal with outsiders. The Chu family cannot afford to lose face like this."
"Having said that, but..."
"You don't need to persuade her anymore." Aunt Liu interrupted her, "I will explain it myself, sir. In fact, I should thank you. If it hadn't been for what happened yesterday, I still wouldn't be able to see clearly what my daughter is like.
Man, while she is still young, get rid of her temper as soon as possible, otherwise, I am afraid she will suffer more suffering when she gets married in the future."
She had already said so, and Shi Chunfen naturally couldn't say anything more, so she could only say: "I hope the second sister can understand my aunt's painstaking efforts."
"That's natural." Aunt Liu forced a smile and quickly returned to her yard.
Shi Chunfen stared at her back blankly, feeling somehow that she seemed to have aged a lot overnight. Although such a method was a bit cruel, it came from the responsibility of a mother. What right did she, an outsider, have to criticize her harshly?
Because of this incident, Shi Chunquin's mood became much lower.
Chu Ying is the uncle's favorite sister. When the uncle walks out of the Buddhist hall and finds that she has been sent to Liuzhuang, I wonder what he will think in his heart?
If it weren't for her appearance, things wouldn't be so bad.
If the uncle had married a wife that everyone liked, then nothing would have happened. The owner of Huating County would not have gone away, and Chu Ying would not have had any resentment because she disliked her. She wanted to pretend not to see her like an ostrich.
There is a huge gap between her and the uncle, but reality tells her time and time again that she is not worthy of him at all.
Just when she was feeling depressed, a familiar voice suddenly sounded, "Housewife!"
When Shi Chunfen looked up, she saw Chu Run walking towards her with a smile. Different from Chu Ling's cold temperament, Chu Run probably had a friendly aura. Every time he appeared in front of others, there was always a feeling of closeness.
At least that's what the Equinox thinks.
"Why are you standing here alone?" Chu Run jogged a few steps and walked up to her. "I heard that my eldest cousin was imprisoned in the Buddhist hall by my grandmother. Could it be that you stayed here all night?"
Shi Chunfen nodded slightly, without denying his contribution, "I can't sleep when I go back alone, so I stay here with him."
Chu Run laughed and said, "My eldest cousin is so lucky to have such a good wife like you."
"Lucky?" Shi Chunfen was startled. No one had ever said that since she married Chu Ling.
Most people felt that she was not worthy of Chu Ling, or would only hold Chu Ling back. Even she herself felt that she was not the best candidate for the eldest mistress of the Chu family.
But there happened to be such a person who came to tell her that Chu Ling was lucky to marry her. Although this was probably a compliment, she was still in a daze.
"That's right!" Chu Run said seriously: "There are many beautiful women in the world, and there are also many women with good family backgrounds, but there are not many women who will guard their husbands in front of the Buddhist temple for a night. I don't know why my eldest cousin suddenly wants to
Joining the army, but he only made the decision after marrying you. It was probably because he felt more at ease with you that he pursued his ideal without hesitation. Joining the army is not an easy thing, it is very hard and tiring.
He could lose his life at any time, but you gave him the courage to move forward. Isn't this his luck?"
"This..." Shi Chunfen was stunned, and after a while he suddenly laughed, "You almost made me believe it."
"This is the truth." Chu Run looked at the woman in front of him with a smile. From the first time they met, he knew that she was not a confident person. Just like him, she had done nothing wrong but was always criticized by outsiders.
She was harshly criticized because of her poor family background, but he was criticized because of his status as a legitimate concubine.
Outsiders only think that they are lucky, but with such a background, they can get a lot...
But who knows, their birth is not their choice, and the things they get are not their choice either.
