Chen Wanzhang had just come back from outside with a calm expression. During this audit, he found out many shopkeepers who had made false accounts. Although the three of them were usually in charge, as the Chen family's business grew bigger and bigger, even with the three of them,
Obviously unable to do what he wants.
If it were before, Chen Liu would definitely not bother him at this time, but it was related to the young master's affairs, and Chen Liu did not dare to delay.
"Master, I found the young master."
"What did you say?"
As soon as Chen Wanzhang sat down, a servant brought him a cup of hot tea. As soon as he picked it up and took a sip, he was so shocked by Chen Liu's words that he spat it out.
Fortunately, it's still cool now, so I won't feel hot even if I spill hot tea on my body.
Chen Wanzhang strode up to Chen Liu and grabbed his collar, "You said you found Da Lang, but is it true?"
Outside the door, Mrs. Li heard Chen Wanzhang coming back and brought her maid over to bring him the tonic soup. As soon as she walked to the door, she heard Chen Wanzhang's voice asking Chen Liu.
Her steps stopped, her body swayed, and she almost fell to the ground.
The little maid was holding soup in her hand, but she couldn't help her because she was so anxious.
"Madam, don't scare me. I'm going to call someone."
"No, I'm fine."
Mrs. Li quickly called the person to stop, she was so excited.
Chen Liu really found Dalang, but why didn't he tell him that day?
Li had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but the most important thing now was to find out whether this matter was true.
She gestured and stood with the little maid at the door of the study, listening to the conversation inside.
Chen Liu nodded, "Master, of course it's true. If you give me ten courages, I won't dare to lie to you about this!"
Chen Wanzhang knew what Chen Liu was like. Although he often liked to make jokes, he was never vague about important matters. When he was sure that he had really found Chen Lian, Chen Wanzhang's hands were shaking with excitement.
"Okay, okay, where is Dalang now?"
As Chen Wanzhang was about to walk out, he thought about how Chen Liu would bring someone back if he found someone. Thinking that his son, who had been missing for more than ten years, was now at home, Chen Wanzhang couldn't wait any longer.
Chen Liu, "The young master is at the aunt's house. It was the eldest lady who saved him."
Chen Liujiang told Chen Wanzhang everything about meeting Feng Lian and rescuing him when he went to sea. He especially mentioned the relationship between Feng Lian and Jiang Xuan.
"Oh? Dalang and Xuan'er? Okay! This is still their destined fate. I will pick up Dalang!"
Chen Wanzhang opened the door and saw Ms. Li standing outside the door. With tears in her eyes, she held Chen Wanzhang's wrist with her thin hands.
"Ms. sir, it was Lian'er who found him, right?"
After all, she was his first wife. Chen Lian was missing these years, and the saddest thing was Mrs. Li. Chen Wanzhang wanted to be like Chen Liu and wait until Feng Lian was brought back to tell Mrs. Li, but he didn't expect that she heard it at the door.
Chen Wanzhang held her hand and couldn't help but shed tears in his eyes, "Yes, Wan'er, our big man is back."
Li couldn't bear it any longer, threw herself into Chen Wanzhang's arms and cried heartily.
She waited for thirteen years, crying until her tears dried up, and finally waited for her husband to come back.
"Ms. sir, I want to go with you!"
She wanted to see Dalang as soon as possible and couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, let's go together."
As both parents, Chen Wanzhang knows the mood of Mrs. Li best. Ever since Chen Lian was lost, she has not even been able to go out to the backyard a few times. Mrs. Li has not been out for more than ten years.
The servants quickly prepared their luggage. In order to take care of Ms. Li, the carriage was covered with thick felt. Ms. Li wore a gray mink fur cloak and sat in the car with Chen Wanzhang.
She looked outside and felt strange and familiar at the same time. When she found Chen Lian, her heart came back to life.
Qiongzhou.
There was a news spread in every major restaurant that a group of people were sitting together chatting.
"Have you heard that Mrs. Jiang is pregnant?"
"How come I haven't heard of it? Isn't it from that savage overseas? Madam Jiang is also degenerate. With Jiang Chuan gone, she has no restraints and can do anything. Back then, my mother wanted me to go with her.
We said we were going to get married, but luckily it didn't happen."
The man who spoke had a big face and a broad nose, and his chubby body was wrapped in brocade silk and satin. What he said was extremely funny.
But no one exposed him at this time. Everyone was watching the Jiang family's jokes and throwing all kinds of dirty and smelly things at Jiang Xuan.
"But she didn't go out with Princess Rongning, and the princess didn't care about doing such a thing?"
Some people are doubtful, but others refute it.
"The princess has a lot of things to do, how can she be kept under constant supervision? She did such an indiscreet thing, and it was too late for the princess to alienate her. I am afraid that Mrs. Jiang has already fallen out of favor with the princess."
"Hey, so this woman still has to abide by women's ethics and learn women's virtues. If my daughter dares to do such a thing, I will definitely have her dipped in a pig cage!"
A group of people criticized Jiang Xuan. Seeing the previously high-ranking noble lady being trampled into the mud, all the secret and despicable feelings of superiority in everyone's hearts burst out.
Liu Xiang was listening to everyone's discussion in the private room upstairs, with the corner of his mouth raised.
"Jiang Xuan, do you dare to refuse my marriage proposal? Okay, then I will show everyone in Qiongzhou City what kind of rotten person you are."
He was waiting for Jiang Xuan's reputation to be ruined and despised by the world. By then it would be too late for her to regret it. It was Liu Xiang who didn't want her.
Jiang family.
Listening to the rumors outside, Mrs. Chen was so angry that her nails were about to break.
"Liu family!"
"Master, do you think these words are passed down from the Liu family?"
Mrs. Chen has been with the Chen family for most of her life, and she has watched Jiang Xuan grow up. She is closer than her own daughter. When she heard the nasty words spread outside, Mrs. Chen wanted to tear those people's mouths apart. Now she knows what's going on behind the scenes.
Mrs. Chen is already eager to give it a try.
"Cut off business with the Liu family."
Mrs. Chen quickly calmed down. Even though the Jiang family was in dire straits, it didn't mean that anyone could bully their mother and daughter.
The Liu family dares to slander Jiang Xuan's reputation, isn't it because no one supports them? If Feng Lian is really a barbarian without a father and mother, Jiang Xuan's reputation in Qiongzhou will be completely ruined.
Fortunately, fortunately, she knew Feng Lian's identity in advance, otherwise she would have fallen into the Liu family's scheme.
"Okay, slave, let's go now!"
Mrs. Chen ran out as aggressively as if she was going to fight. When she went out, she almost bumped into Jiang Xuan who was coming towards her.
"Hey, madam, please walk slower. The road just rained is so slippery. If you fall..."
When Granny Chen was not done talking, Jiang Xuan grabbed her hand and asked, "Grandma Chen, is my mother angry?"
Chen Shi had just agreed to Feng Lian's entry. If he was blamed for this matter again, Jiang Xuan would tear the Liu family to pieces.
Mrs. Chen knew why she came, so she patted Jiang Xuan's hand and said, "Don't worry, the master is even more angry about what the Liu family did and asked the slaves to cut off the Liu family's business."
"I see."
Jiang Xuan was relieved when she heard that Mrs. Chen was not angry, but why did she change so quickly?
