He himself didn't care, no matter how cruel Chu Shun was, he would never kill his son, but things were different at the Spring Equinox. In Shuzhou, a place he was unfamiliar with, it would be easy for Chu Shun to take care of her.
"Okay then." Shi Chunfen also knew the seriousness of the matter and quickly agreed: "I have the token of the Lord of Huating County here. You can take it over to show your identity to the prefect of Shuzhou. With the relationship of the County Lord,
He should be happy to help us."
"Yes." Chu Run nodded slightly and reached out to take the token.
This was given to her by Chu Ling before he left for the capital. He knew that staying alone in the Chu family would never bring peace. This token was to give her an extra layer of protection. Unexpectedly, it actually came in handy now.
After Chu Run left, Shi Chunfen did not dare to sit in the hotel lobby and show off, so he took Li Yan back to the room.
Chu Run stayed away all night and didn't come back until almost dawn. According to him, he had already negotiated with the Shuzhou prefect, and the other party would send a team of officers and soldiers to protect them secretly. At the same time, he also hoped to take this opportunity to capture the group of people in Shuzhou city.
The bandits who had been wandering around for a long time were all captured.
With the protection of the officers and soldiers, Shi Chunfen felt much more at ease. She and Chu Run decided to make a quick decision and buy the shop as soon as possible to see what tricks the bandits planned to play.
In order to confuse Chu Shun, they specially asked Yu Atu to persuade Chu Run to buy this shop in front of Cai Die. Chu Run pretended to be very interested and included this shop in his options.
Shi Chunfen chose this one from the alternative shops as a matter of course. Everything seemed perfect. Shi Chunfen even went to see the venue in person.
"This shop is indeed good. It is transparent from north to south, open from top to bottom, and the street has a large flow of people." Shi Chun Equinox turned around, and she didn't even need to pretend. She was indeed very satisfied with this shop.
"That's good." Yu Atu said in front of Cai Die: "Then let's just buy this one and avoid having to go to any other trouble!"
"It's not impossible." Shi Chunquin pretended to hesitate: "But do you really not want to look at a few more rooms?"
Chu Run said with a smile: "If you are willing to leave, of course it would be best to see a few more rooms."
The Equinox turned around again and pretended to make up his mind, "Then let's take this one first. Good berths are hard to find anyway. We will buy the right one together in the future!"
This is in line with the Chu family's usual style. After all, in the past few years, the Chu family has had many vacant shops after buying them.
The three of them pretended to discuss it for a while, then handed over the matter of buying a shop to Chu Run, and then Yu Atu accompanied Shi Chunfen back to the inn.
After returning to the inn, Yu Atu found an excuse to push Cai Die away, and then asked Shi Chunquin: "Do you think they will believe it?"
Shi Chunquin shrugged, "I don't know either."
She had done everything she had to do, and if she still hadn't deceived Chu Shun, there was nothing she could do.
While the two were talking, Shi Cui came over cheerfully and brought freshly washed fruits to them. Because the shop was too far away from the inn, Shi Chunfen didn't take her there specifically to avoid the hassle of traveling, so she was always worried.
Shi Chunfen and Yu Atu would quarrel on the road, but now that she saw them coming back safely, she felt happier than anyone else.
"Come on, eat some fruit quickly and rest for a while."
As soon as she saw them coming back, Shi Cui was busy with her business, and Shi Chunfen's face was filled with distress, "Auntie, stop being busy, let the servants do this."
"It's okay." Shi Cui said cheerfully: "I slept in the inn all day, and I feel uncomfortable unless I do something."
This is true. They originally brought Shi Cui to visit the mountains and rivers with good intentions, but they did not expect to encounter such a thing. They were locked up in the inn most of the time. Not to mention Shi Cui, who was used to being diligent, even they
The two of us went out today and felt like we were reborn.
"I'm sorry, Auntie." Shi Chunfen apologized a little, "It's all me who has caused trouble for you."
"What the hell!" Shi Cui frowned, "If it weren't for you, I might never have been able to come to Shuzhou in this life. How can you put the cart before the horse in life?"
She was originally trying to comfort her, but she didn't expect that after hearing this, Yu Atu's expression dropped, "If you want to scold me, just say it, no need to beat around the bush."
Shi Cui was stunned and looked at her in surprise.
Seeing this situation, Shi Chunfen quickly tried to smooth things over, "Don't think too much. It's too late for my aunt to hurt you, so how could she deliberately target you?"
Yu Atu tightened her lips and said nothing.
Shi Cui lowered his head and stood up awkwardly, "I'd better go back to my room and you guys can chat slowly."
Seeing the hunched back of the eldest daughter leaving, Shi Chunfen glared at Yu Uatu, "What's the matter with you? She's your mother, can't you make her happy?!"
Yu Atu looked at her with a sneer on her face, "She always stands by your side, of course you say so, but do you know how sad I feel when she doubts me?!"
"All I know is that when something happens to you, my aunt is eager to die with you." Shi Chunquin said coldly: "You can blame anyone in this world, but your aunt can't. She is definitely the one who loves you most in the world.
people."
Seemingly intimidated by her attitude, Yu Atu fell silent and didn't speak for a while.
When Cai Die came in, she happened to see them in a stalemate. She thought the two sisters were quarreling again, and she felt secretly happy in her heart. "Grandma, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll ask the inn to prepare it in advance."
Shi Chunfen and Yu Atu looked at each other and said calmly: "No need to prepare. Let's go out to eat at the same restaurant as last time."
"Yes, Grandma." Cadie nodded slightly, but didn't react much.
On the contrary, Yu Atu glanced at her and frowned quietly. Of course she knew that Shi Chunquin was trying to lure the snake out of its hole, but she just wandered into the other person's field of vision so frequently. Wouldn't anything really happen?
She was actually a little scared...
In fact, the spring equinox was a temporary move, mainly to ease the conflict between Yu Atu and the aunt, and to take the aunt out of the inn to get some fresh air.
As for safety...she didn't think much about it.
Anyway, now that she was protected by officers and soldiers, and in full public view in the restaurant, she didn't believe that those bandits would dare to attack her openly.
Before they set off, Chu Run also happened to come back, saying that he had bought the shop and paid the deposit, and that the handover would be official once the land deed was drawn up.
It was rare that he came back before dinner, so everyone decided to go to a restaurant to have dinner together to celebrate that most of the business in the shop was settled.
This was the first time Chu Run had eaten out with them after they arrived in Shuzhou. Yu Atu was in a very happy mood. Not only did he no longer feel uneasy, but his face towards Shi Cui also improved a lot, "Mom, I
Help you sit down."
Shi Cui glanced at her and knew that she had been influenced by Chu Run. She didn't feel much happy, but a little disappointed.
This is the good daughter she gave birth to. She has a husband and forgets her mother!
