She had been to the Tang Mansion twice, but now she came again, but there was no familiar feeling in her memory. She was a little stunned. When she saw the brand-new door, she realized that it had been renovated, and the door and walls were completely new. No wonder she always felt something was different.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Tang saw that she was in a daze and asked.
Long Chuxia shook her head and smiled: "It's okay, I just feel it's different from before."
Mrs. Tang laughed twice, "Yes, it was renovated before getting married. People here have this rule. Before getting married, we always have to renovate and decorate to show that the new couple has moved in."
Long Chuxia knew that it was common for people to do this when marrying a daughter-in-law. Those who had no money would just buy a few new pieces of furniture to decorate their new house. The Tang family was a well-established family, so they naturally had to carry out extensive construction projects.
Mrs. Tang led Long Chuxia into the house. Many flowers in the yard were in bloom, and they were colorful.
Because the rain had wet the stone floor, and the remaining red and fallen leaves were everywhere, Long Chuxia saw a broom beside the door, and suddenly became very excited. He thought of the life in Yingjuyuan, the days when he simply lifted the broom were so happy.
She picked up the broom and skillfully waved the handle to sweep the fallen leaves back into a pile.
Mrs. Tang looked at her in astonishment, "Madam, what are you doing?"
Xiaoxun also quickly stepped forward to grab the broom and said repeatedly: "Madam, no!"
Long Chuxia waved her hand: "I used to be a sweeping girl, but now I feel itchy when I see fallen leaves lying on the ground!"
"Skills?" Mrs. Tang couldn't laugh or cry, but there was some admiration in her eyes. This lady did not shy away from her former status, which shows that she is an open and generous person.
"Miss Long?" A slightly older male voice sounded. Long Chuxia looked up and saw Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang walking down the path. Both of them were very surprised.
"Master Tang, Mrs. Tang!" Long Chuxia bowed in greeting.
"Miss Long, long time no see. Are you... married?" Seeing Long Chuxia's belly, the two of them lost their worried expressions and showed a comfortable smile. This wonderful change could not be hidden from Long.
In early summer, she began to feel that there were things she should know but didn’t know yet.
"Yes, I got married!" Long Chuxia said with a smile, "By the way, I didn't have time to congratulate Young Master Tang on his marriage. I would like to congratulate you two on finding a good daughter-in-law."
Mrs. Tang, oh, it should be Mrs. Tang, blushed and said, "Do your parents-in-law know this lady?"
"We know each other, we know each other," the two of them said together, "By the way, how did you come back together?"
"I met this lady in a jewelry store, and when we started chatting, I realized that she was actually my husband's friend," Mrs. Tang said gently and authentically.
"Is it such a coincidence?" Mr. Tang was a little surprised. Long Chuxia turned his head slightly and looked at the two of them. The doubts in his heart were getting bigger and bigger.
"Isn't Tang Junlong back yet?" Long Chuxia asked
"He won't be back today!" The couple answered in unison again, and Mrs. Tang asked in confusion: "Isn't your husband coming back tonight? Where has he gone?"
Mr. Tang hurriedly said: "Yes, I just ordered someone to inform me that the prince sent him to Bin County and said that there was a flying thief there. The emperor ordered that the thief must be caught within three days, so he didn't have time to come back."
Pack your things”
Long Chuxia remembered that King Qingping had not said anything about this matter in the court this morning. All the emperor's orders were given by her. In other words, she absolutely did not ask King Qingping's divine arrester to arrest Bin Bin within three days.
The county's flying robber was captured and brought back
Why lie? Is it to prevent her from seeing Tang Junlong? Is there something Tang Junlong is hiding from her? Or is his parents hiding something from her? Judging from Mrs. Tang’s expression, she seems to be unaware of anything.
If she didn't come back tonight, she would be shocked that she didn't contact her parents-in-law to lie to her, proving that she didn't know what was going on.
Long Chuxia was determined to find out what was going on.
She saw Mr. Tang say a few words in the ear of a servant, and then the servant nodded and ran out quickly. She guessed that Mr. Tang asked him to deliver a message to Tang Junlong or something, and of course asked him not to come back.
Why didn't they let Tang Junlong see her? She didn't know why? Was there something that Tang Junlong couldn't let her know?
She knew that if she stayed here and waited, she wouldn't be able to see Tang Junlong. She had to leave first and then kill another carbine to find out what the hell they were doing.
So, she said: "Since Tang Shenqing won't come back tonight, I won't wait for him anymore and will come to visit another day."
Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang quickly said: "Yes, don't wait any longer, it will be dusk soon."
The guests were rushing in such a hurry that Mrs. Tang on the side had some clues and looked at her parents-in-law in confusion.
"Mrs. Tang, goodbye!" Long Chuxia said thoughtfully
Mrs. Tang quickly said: "Madam, what do you call me? When your husband comes back, I will tell him that you have looked for him!"
"Yan'er, there's no need to ask, we know," Master Tang said
Mrs. Tang is also a smart woman and said: "Okay, Madam, please go slowly."
Long Chuxia patted her hand and said, "Okay, goodbye."
After leaving Tang Mansion, Xiaoxun said: "Madam, they look weird."
Long Chuxia smiled: "Even you can see it, it seems their play is not very clever!"
"A show? Madam, you said they were doing a show?" Xiaoxun was stunned.
"That's right, they really want me not to see Tang Junlong. What are they hiding from me? I have to find out," Long Chuxia said
"Wouldn't it be easy to meet the Tang Shen and arrest him? Wouldn't it be enough to order someone to declare him into the palace?" Xiaoxun said nonchalantly.
Long Chuxia shook his head: "This is of course simple. How should I ask him when I see him? Are you asking if your family has something to hide from me? Of course it's not possible. They say no, so what can you do?"
"What do you think, madam?" Xiaoxun asked blankly.
Long Chuxia smiled strangely and remained silent
Over at the Tang Mansion, Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Long Chuxia leaving the house. Mrs. Tang asked, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, who is she?"
Mrs. Tang laughed and said, "She is our old neighbor. In fact, we don't have much contact with her. Her family moved away a long time ago."
"Old neighbors?" Mrs. Tang felt a little confused, "We are all familiar with the neighbors in this house. I have never heard of which one is the new one?"
"It's been a long time, you definitely don't know," Master Tang said, "By the way, Yan'er, where is the ginseng soup you said you were going to make for your mother-in-law today? Is it ready?"
Mrs. Tang smiled slightly: "It has been stewed for a long time. I ordered someone to put it in the pot to heat my mother-in-law. Do you want to drink it now? My wife ordered someone to bring it over."
"Okay, let's drink the soup and eat for a while," Mrs. Tang said with a smile.
"Well, I ordered them not to cook too much tonight. Since my husband won't come back to eat, let's just keep it simple."
"No need, let them do it. I want a few more dishes tonight," Mr. Tang said quickly
"Father, you are still coughing now. The doctor said you should stop talking and eat lightly. My mother-in-law is drinking medicinal food, and she needs to be light and eat delicious food. Let's eat some other time, okay?" Mrs. Tang gently advised.
, the two elders were very pleased, and because of this, they had to do everything possible to prevent Tang Junlong from seeing Long Chuxia.
