In the evening, what was brought to Chen Zumo's mother and son was the bone broth wontons from Shanchang Tea House and the vegetarian buns from Han Da Fat's family. The pot of pork stewed cabbage entered the stomachs of Chen Zhong and Chen Gao.

There are only two wastes in the family who can't cook, and the son is still sick, and Pi can't do it. Before dawn the next day, she got up tremblingly and went to the kitchen to make porridge.

Since marrying Qin's family, Pi's rarely touched pots and pans. Although the millet porridge cooked by hand is a little thinner, it is okay with vegetarian buns, and it is better than that of the groom.

After all, he is still young and there is nothing wrong with his body, Chen Zumo drank medicine after breakfast, and most of the stuffiness in his chest disappeared. Chen Zumo instructed the housekeeper, "You go to the city to find someone to buy a diligent servant to come back to work, and then send someone to the capital, and let Chen Ding send Qingliu back before the lady arrives home." ”

The two concubines, Hayori and Aoyagi, were left in Beijing by the jealous Chai Yuyuan. If Aoyagi was persuaded by her side, the old lady would not have directly clashed with Chai Yuyuan yesterday, and Chai Yuyuan would not have made things out of control.

Speaking of which, this matter is still because Chai Yuyuan's behavior is wrong, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law have told Chai Yuyuan several times to stop clashes with Xiao Nuan's family. This time, she carried a whip to the Qin family, and after being humiliated, she returned to Beijing, and Chen Zumo felt that she must not be greeted with greetings, but with a front.

Just wait, Chen Zumo thought like this, and the suffocation in his chest went a little more.

Although Chai Yuyuan is tyrannical but not stupid, after returning to Beijing, she went directly back to her home on Dongqiao Street, without letting her father and uncle know, listening to Chunni say that Chen Ding sent Qingliu back to Ji County, Chai Yuyuan only snorted coldly, "This is going back, don't think about coming back, stay in that place for a lifetime!" ”

Chai Yuyuan swore that she would never go to Jixian again in this life, that place had a conflict with her, she didn't have a good life in Jixian for a few days, and she lost everything that belonged to her. So before she came back, she had instructed Chai He to sell the Qinghu Courtyard, and then use the silver to buy a small village on the edge of the capital, which was her blessed land.

On the second day, Chai Zhisui came to the door, and when he understood what was going on, eighteen folds appeared on his face, "You can't hold your breath!" The Qin family can't even look down on Li Xiran now, how can he look down on his brother-in-law? You're making a fuss like this, how are you going to end up? ”

Chai Yuyuan didn't expect the second brother who was the most unsuccessful in the family to also blame her, and she was very aggrieved, "I was beaten, and the second brother didn't ask me how I was injured, so he came up and accused me of not it!" ”

Chai Zhisui snorted twice, "Green Butterfly is a practitioner, if she really whips you more than forty times, you can still be alive and kicking here?" ”

"But I hurt! I couldn't sleep all the way, and I never felt so much pain since I was a child. "When she gave birth to Xiaomian, she didn't feel so much pain. This pain is heart-wrenching, making her unable to eat and drink, and restless.

Chai Zhisui didn't want to stay any longer, he stood up with his fat body and warned, "That's because my father and mother haven't let you taste pain since you were a child!" If you mess with Chen Xiaonuan's family again, don't talk about your father and mother, I don't care about your life or death anymore. You'd better hope that King Sheng won't embarrass our father and uncle because of this matter, otherwise you will feel better. ”

After the second brother left, Chai Yuyuan cried. Xiaomian has been beaten and scolded by her mother in the past few days, guarding the charcoal brazier, listening to the firecrackers, and sitting still in a daze.

Today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. The street was crowded with pedestrians, Chai Zhisui and Cheng Xiaoliu walked around the street with waist knives, and when they saw delicious food on the roadside stalls, they picked it up and stuffed it into their mouths. With the two Wucheng Soldiers and Horses on their bodies, they lived a very leisurely life, and they didn't need to give silver to eat.

After turning around, the two went to the teahouse to stop and chat, waiting to listen to the book. When Cheng Xiaoliu heard about Chai Yuyuan, he remembered the matter at home, and sighed for a long time, "Ruoyun doesn't make people worry, but it's been making trouble these days." ”

"She still wants to marry Lu Linping?" The two are good friends who talk about everything, and Chai Zhisui knows everything about the Cheng family, "In my opinion, Lu Linping is not a good bird." ”

"We can see it, but how can the daughter's family know, they only like coaxing little white faces. It's useless! Cheng Xiaoliu sighed again, "My father is not happy in the court, the third brother is also stiff every day because of the bad business, Zheng Duchu hates the sky and the earth, and I don't want to enter the house now." ”

Chai Zhisui also felt the same way, so he discussed with Xiao Liu, "Why don't we take the initiative to tell Master Meng that we are on a duty tonight?" So you don't have to go home, and you can get a good name. When we find a good place to eat and sleep after the errand, no one can pick our reason, how about it? ”

The two hit it off and ran to find Meng Cheng, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, to be courteous. Someone took the initiative to ask for duty on Chinese New Year's Eve, Meng Chengan naturally welcomed it, and after a few words of praise, he arranged twenty people for Chai Zhisui to let them be optimistic about Yuping Street.

Yuping Street is inhabited by first-class princes and ministers, the Cheng family is here, Lord Meng is kind intentions, the original plan of these two people to find a place to eat flowers and wine failed, so they had to admit it, and honestly went to guard the street.

The bustle of Yuping Street is different from other places, there are no small traders or small shops here, and the two people who are warmly dressed have to sit in a carriage on the side of the road, watching King Yi, King Tanjun, and the eldest prince who did not return to the imperial tomb after returning from August take their families into the palace one after another to guard the New Year, and watch them return home one by one.

The two of them gossiped about the smell of sulfur and nibbled on kebabs, and suddenly saw a noisy voice in the east.

"Second brother, I'm out of the water, brother, I'll take a look." Cheng Xiaoliu stuffed all the meat into his mouth and was about to get out of the carriage.

Chai Zhisui pulled him down, "It's not Yuping Street that is on fire, it has nothing to do with us, let's eat." ”

Cheng Xiaoliu had always listened to Chai Zhisui, so he sat down again, grabbed a handful of meat skewers and put them on the shelf of the charcoal brazier and roasted them. The subordinate who inquired about the news came back and said, "There is a fire in the house of Master Jiang, the servant of the ministry, and the brothers of our division are helping to extinguish the fire. ”

Chai Zhisui gave him a handful of meat skewers, "You take five people to help, a little eyesight, don't let the brothers hurt during the New Year." ”

The subordinates led the people away with a smile, Chai Zhisui and Cheng Xiaoliu skewered, staring at the gate of King Yi's Mansion in unison. King Yi's maiden house of Concubine Jiang broke out in the palace, will King Yi send someone over to take a look?

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, the gate of King Yi's mansion opened, and the steward rushed over with more than a dozen people. After a while, the doors of two more houses opened, and someone went to help put out the fire.

At this time, the door of the Great Prince's Mansion also opened a crack, and a steward came out with a wooden barrel and a scoop. Chai Zhisui raised his hand to wipe the oil residue from his mouth, staring at these people, something was wrong.

"Da, da, da!" The crisp sound of horses' hooves approached with slaughter, and the eldest prince, disguised as a guard, immediately retracted his feet as soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, and he leaned on the gate to look out, only to see a person wearing a prince's robe coming slowly.

Chai Yanchang was annoyed, why did the third child come here at this time!
