Chapter 153 Why did my mother fall in love with him in the first place?
Author: Ge Rao
There were bursts of noise from the backyard of the Chao Mansion, and the maids and women in the courtyard were also talking quietly.
"Hey, is the second lady making trouble again?" one of the rude women whispered.
Another woman of about the same age gave her a hand and said, "Keep your voice down so that no one can hear you. The second young lady is becoming more and more difficult to take care of these days, so we'd better be careful."
"That's true. I heard that the second lady's appetite has been up and down recently. Maybe she ate something that upset her stomach and caused her vomiting." A maid said.
"After all, it is the matter of the young ladies in the mansion, so let's not talk too much. The second young lady has already discussed the marriage and will get married next month. It won't be long for us." Another maid also said something more.
Several people were talking quietly, and suddenly they heard footsteps coming from behind, and they all shut up.
When several people turned around and took a look, it turned out to be Chaoli.
"I've met the eldest lady." Several people said in unison.
Although Chaoli was married, the servants of the imperial family still called her eldest lady. She did not ask them to correct her, perhaps because she still thought that she would no longer be the princess in a few months.
Chaoli smiled and waved his hand, "No need to be polite, you are busy, I'm going to see my mother."
"Yes, come on, ma'am."
The few people walked forward quickly, feeling relieved. Fortunately, the person they heard was the eldest lady, not the second lady.
They whispered that the eldest lady in the court was a nice person, but it was a pity that she was not favored by the master, and Pei Yu repeated these words to Chaoli.
Chaoli just listened and didn't care.
No matter which house you live in, there will always be people talking about it. A stricter master will not allow such a thing to happen. If someone talks about it, he will definitely scold the servants.
However, Chaoli felt that this was a normal thing, and it was difficult for someone not to be discussed. As a young lady in the family, her every word and deed could be seen by the servants.
Chaozhen's actions in the past were discussed by these people, and they would become indelible marks on her body in the future, so she would not be kind enough to help reprimand these servants.
Not long after, the three masters and servants of Chaoli arrived in Fang Huimin's yard.
Qing Yi and Pei Yu stayed outside the house, while Chaoli went inside alone.
When she saw her daughter, Fang Huimin smiled.
"Ali is here, how are you doing lately?"
She did not tell Fang Huimin about Chao Li's injured foot. It was not a big deal in itself, so there was no need for her to worry about herself.
Chaoli slowly approached Fang Huimin, took her hand and sat down.
"Mom, I've been doing very well recently. How are you doing these days? Chao Lu, has he ever come to bully you?" Chao Li asked.
In fact, what Chao Li wanted to ask was whether Chao Lu had come to Fang Huimin's yard to rest during this period, but it was not easy for her as a daughter to ask these questions.
Fang Huimin saw her daughter's thoughts. She didn't feel the need to hide it from her daughter. She knew that her daughter was worried about her.
"I know what you are thinking. He has never set foot in my yard and has not rested here for half a year. Don't worry, your uncle will return to Beijing next month. Even if it is for you, I will definitely leave the court.
Mansion." Fang Huimin said seriously.
Her daughter is so strong and thinks of everything for her. She cannot hold her back. He is just a man who cannot be loved, and she should have let go long ago.
More than ten years are enough to see a person clearly.
What Chaoli was most worried about was that Fang Huimin was not strong enough and could not let go of Chaolv. Now it seemed that there was no need to worry about this. Since Fang Huimin had a plan in mind, she would not say much.
"Mom, it's good for you to let go completely. From now on, you should live for yourself and don't hurt yourself because of Chao's rules." Chaoli warned again.
Fang Huimin nodded, "Speaking of this, I heard that Chaozhen is getting married. You know the Li family will never tell me this. I also overheard Xingyu mention it. It is said that Chaozhen is getting married, which is a branch of the Lin family.
He is from Dali Temple, is this possible?"
According to Fang Huimin's opinion, Chaozhen should marry a high-ranking official. After all, Mrs. Li always hoped that her daughter would marry well.
The person marrying Dali Temple this time seems to be a bit worse. After all, I heard that the other party does not even have an official position yet, and the Li family has high ambitions. Logically speaking, she should not agree.
Chaoli smiled and said, "That's enough. She married Lin Wenxue with an evil intention, and people already think highly of her. If it weren't for the other party's hidden illness, this matter wouldn't have been her turn, not to mention that Chao Lu felt that this move would be able to harmonize with her.
He particularly approves of the Lin family's relationship."
"Yes, Chaolu has always cared about the role of his daughter to him. When he allowed you to marry the prince, he just wanted to get benefits from the prince. Later he saw that you were unwilling to be used by him, and now he dislikes you even more. If not
With your status like this, he might not even want you to enter the imperial palace. Chao Lu is really cold-blooded and ruthless, and also selfish," Fang Huimin said.
"Tell me, why did mother fall in love with him in the first place?" Chaoli asked.
As expected of a mother and daughter, both she and Fang Huimin are deeply affectionate people. They are both desperate for their feelings and equally foolish.
Fortunately, although Gu Hanzhang was cold and ruthless, he was not a villain like Chao Lu. This was her only consolation.
Fang Huimin smiled bitterly and said slowly.
It turned out that when Fang Huimin first met Chao Lu, she took a liking to this poor student at first sight and felt that he had literary talent and was kind to others.
At that time, she didn't know that Chao Lu had a childhood sweetheart, who was now his second concubine, Mrs. Li.
Madam Chao knew Fang Huimin's identity and knew that his father was the deputy general under General Zhenguo, so he naturally had some status.
Mrs. Chao made a decisive decision and asked Chao Lu to cut off contact with Mr. Li and be with Fang Huimin.
When Fang Huimin was in her teens, her father and younger brother were not around. She was taken care of by a nanny in the house, and she was easily deceived. Therefore, Chao Lu took the beauty home without much effort.
Both Fang Yaohui and Fang Zhengye disagreed with the marriage, but Fang Huimin insisted on marrying Chao Lu, so the two had no choice but to compromise.
Then, when Fang Huimin became pregnant, Li also entered the family.
It turned out that Chao Lu had never let go of Mrs. Li. Even Mrs. Li was pregnant, and she was only one month younger than her.
After giving birth to Chao Li, Chao Lu lost more and more feelings for Fang Huimin. He spent the whole day with Mr. Li. Doting on his concubines and destroying his wife was not just what he said, Chao Lu actually did it.
After hearing this, Chaoli couldn't help but sigh.
"Mom, it's okay. It will get better and better in the future. A person like Chao Lu is not worthy of you thinking about him for the rest of your life. You don't need to pay attention to him anymore." Chaoli comforted her.
"I know, I will be fine, and I will take care of my grandson in the future." Fang Huimin is no longer so sad.
Chao Li lowered his head and suppressed the emotion in his eyes.
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then Chaoli got up and went to Chaozhen's yard.
As soon as I walked into Chaozhen's yard, I heard a crackling sound coming from inside, as well as Chaozhen's roar.
"Get out of here, I told you, all of you, get out of here!"
