No matter what happened to Mrs. Wei during her lifetime, she was nominally Mr. Xu’s wife and Xu Chunjun’s aunt, and Xu Chunjun had to keep her filial piety.
Therefore, after returning to Zheng's house, Xu Chunjun explained it to his mother-in-law, Mrs. Fang.
After hearing this, Mrs. Fang kept chanting Buddha's name and comforted Xu Chunjun, saying: "But there are no young or old on the bridge. Your aunt was not as old as me, and she died long ago. Alas! You also need to express your condolences."
Xu Chunjun nodded, not forgetting to remind her mother-in-law: "The old lady is almost doing well now, thanks to the seventh young master of the Chen family. The uncle was supposed to come to express his thanks, but he was not at home, and he didn't know when he would come back. It was too late.
It would be rude for a long time. I originally planned to visit Chen's house with my wife in the past two days, but now I have a lot of love and filial piety on my body, so I can't go there. If my wife has time, you might as well go there."
"You're right. Not only did the seventh young master provide careful diagnosis and treatment, but he also didn't accept a thank you gift. This is a great kindness." Mrs. Fang praised her repeatedly, "Go and pack some decent gifts. I'll be there tomorrow."
Then he called the woman in charge next to him: "Mother Gu, take the key to the warehouse and lead Grandma to look for it to see if there is anything useful."
Xu Chunjun followed Gu's mother to the warehouse. This was her first time back.
It was dirty and messy inside, and apart from broken tables and chairs piled haphazardly, there weren't many whole things.
Xu Chunjun looked at it for a long time, but couldn't figure out anything.
So he said to Mother Gu: "Lock the door! I'll go look around in my room to see if there's anything suitable."
On the way back, Lu Shen asked Xu Chunjun: "Girl, you use your own things to fill the hole for them. When will this end?"
Xu Chunjun responded calmly: "Now that we have entered the door, we are on the same boat. The honor and disgrace of the Zheng family is my honor and disgrace. How can I be alone?"
Zi Ling said nothing, but silently felt sorry for her girl.
Xu Chunjun returned to the room and found two pieces of fine material and some gold, silver and jade articles.
He sighed: "It's still too simple. Fortunately, there is a long way to go. Let's slowly make up for it!"
The next day, Mrs. Fang took the gifts prepared by Xu Chunjun to the Chen Mansion, and Mrs. Zhao of Rong Jinhou received her personally.
Ms. Zhao declined the gift brought by Ms. Fang for a long time before accepting it, saying that Ms. Fang was too polite.
The two were of the same age, and although they didn't move around much in the past, they met frequently.
Naturally, Mrs. Fang wanted to praise Chen Siwen highly and thank her repeatedly.
Ms. Zhao smiled and said: "We are good relatives and we don't say such unreasonable things. I also want to thank you for your trust!"
"Ouch! Madam, you are so humble. Your two young masters are really the best among men. They are so enviable!" Fang's words were true. Chen Sijing and Chen Siqen brothers were both good-looking and person-like.
In terms of conduct and even professional skills, he is the best among the young people from aristocratic families.
In comparison, Zheng Wuji from their family, except for his good looks, is absolutely useless.
After staying at Chen's house for more than an hour, Ms. Fang left.
Mrs. Zhao said bitterly: "If you don't come here for a long time, you have to have a meal before leaving. If you are so angry, I will be angry."
"To be honest, you should have a meal," Ms. Fang explained with a smile, "How could I be so polite to you? It's just that my old lady still needs me to take care of her. Even though she has grandchildren and a daughter-in-law, it's not good to always burden her."
"You are such a good mother-in-law," Ms. Zhao said with a smile, "I know I feel sorry for my daughter-in-law."
After sending Mrs. Fang out of the house, Ms. Zhao walked back, and Chen Sijing happened to come back as well.
Asked his mother: "Who came just now?"
"It's the wife of the Marquis of Cheng'en," Mrs. Zhao said. "A few days ago, didn't Siwen cure her old lady's illness? Today she came to say thank you, but she refused to let her have dinner, saying she had something to do at home.
.”
Chen Jing couldn't help but feel shocked after hearing this. He would pay attention to anyone and anything related to Xu Chunjun unconsciously.
Mrs. Rong Jinhou didn't know that her eldest son was pretending to be Xu Chunjun. She smiled to herself and said, "I'm still surprised that the Zheng family can actually come up with a decent thank you gift. Then she remembered that this must belong to her eldest grandma.
Dowry. Your aunt gave birth to a child a few days ago, and she was busy working there. She is quiet and thoughtful, and is a first-class good person. With her character, it is really hard to find her.
It’s a pity that my life was so short and I married an incompetent libertine!”
Zhao walked and talked, but Chen Sijing's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
He cannot marry such a good person.
He would never meet such a good person again in his life.
"You don't look good," Mrs. Zhao turned around and noticed that her son was not feeling well, "but are you too tired at the Yamen? You are too, even though you are serving the royal family, you can't ignore yourself. These things
The days are so busy that day and night are reversed, even a tough guy can't stand it!"
Then he ordered those who were following him: "Wait for the young master to go back and rest, and ask the kitchen to stew some refreshing soup."
Looking at Chen Sijing's back, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but sigh: "Mrs. Zheng, it would be better for us to reconcile! Her son is too incompetent, and my son is too strong. They are both very worrying!"
Chen Sijing did not go on a blind date or get engaged. He was so busy every day that his days and nights were reversed.
Zhao tried hard and soft to get him to start a family, but he just refused.
He even asked him: "Which girl do you have your eye on? As long as you tell me, I will marry even a beggar's daughter!"
But Chen Sijing said no.
Mrs. Zhao then said, "Then your father and I will make the decision. You just have to wait until you get married!"
But Chen Sijing refused to agree: "It's not sweet to force me to do it. If you insist on me getting married, I will ask for permission to go to the border."
Mrs. Rong Jinhou was worried about this matter, but there was nothing she could do.
After all, it was the flesh that fell from his body. Could it be that he really wanted to force him to death?
When Mrs. Fang returned home, Xu Chunjun was cutting clothes for the old lady.
When my mother-in-law came back, she said, "I'm going to make a dress for my wife. There are two pieces of material here. Which one do you like more?"
"Hey, save your money! Just make it for the old lady, I have some clothes to wear." Mrs. Fang really didn't care about this.
"This is my idea, it doesn't matter what my wife says." Xu Chunjun smiled softly, "The weather is cold, so make warm clothes so that you can wear them in the morning and evening."
"Chun Jun, you are such a filial child." In Fang's life, few people cared about her so much.
When she was in her natal family, she had older siblings and younger siblings. Her mother was in poor health and her father had a bad temper. She was always the one who was not remembered.
A few years after she got married, her husband died again, and she had to take care of her mother-in-law and son.
Now, although Xu Chunjun was married not long ago, he is considerate and sensible. He has shared a lot of worries for her, from a meal of porridge and a meal to a large favor.
Mrs. Fang really thinks this daughter-in-law is good.
