The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day to return to my parents’ home.
Several daughters-in-law of the Hou family came early to talk to Mrs. Chen and then went back to their parents' home, but Mrs. Ma did not go back.
Mrs. Ma was originally a concubine when she was in her natal family. Chen Jing fell in love with her at first sight and Chen Jing insisted on marrying her.
Because of this matter, Chen Jing almost fell out with the people in the Hou Mansion.
Even though the marriage contract was a big deal, his parents ordered the matchmaker to do it, but when Chen Jing became stubborn, even nine oxen could not pull him back.
Mrs. Ma became the wife of the prince when she married, and she also gave birth to the only young master in the Hou family at that time. It can be said that she was extremely famous.
But with Chen Jing's death and the position of Crown Prince falling to Chen Feng, her glory disappeared at that moment.
Ma's natal family felt that she was an abandoned child, and they gradually reduced their contact with Ma.
Mr. Ma would not ask for trouble by going to Ma's house again.
Her aunt has passed away, and there is no one in the Ma family for her to remember.
At noon, Ma stood by the window and saw Chunying walking in with a woman.
Ma smiled slightly and sat back on the chair.
Chunying took Ye Xiang to Ma and paid her respects.
Ma's voice was gentle, "Get up."
After what happened yesterday, Ye Xiang became more cautious. She stood cautiously, not daring to say a word.
Ma put down the tea cup and said, "Raise your head and let me take a look."
Ye Xiang obediently raised her head, revealing her still red and swollen cheeks.
Ma said pitifully: "It's so pitiful. Isn't there any medicine?"
Ye Xiang shook his head and said in a lonely voice, "No."
"Chunying, I remember there is a bottle of ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis in my cabinet. Go get it." Ma ordered.
Chunying went into the inner room and soon came back with a bottle of plaster.
Ma took the plaster with her own hands. She stood up, opened the bottle cap, and wanted to apply the medicine to Ye Xiang herself.
Ye Xiang was flattered and waved her hands repeatedly, "Why bother you to do it? I can just do it myself."
Ma smiled and said, "It's okay. When my grandfather was injured in the past, I personally gave him the medicine."
Ma's attitude was gentle and sincere, and Ye Xiang was moved.
Chunying smiled and said: "Our young lady is well-known as a good person, don't be afraid."
Ye Xiang no longer refused.
Ma then gently applied the plaster on Ye Xiang's face and gave the whole bottle of plaster to Ye Xiang.
"You are good-looking, but it would not be beautiful if it left traces on your face. By the way, are you my nephew's nanny?"
Ye Xiang had a good impression of Mr. Ma, and her guard relaxed, "Yes."
"Look at how thin and weak you are, you need to eat more tonic." Ma said with concern.
Ye Xiang smiled bitterly, "I am from the country, and I eat delicious food closely with the men and children in my family."
After she receives the monthly payment, the monthly payment will also be given to her family members.
"This is not possible, Chunying, please bring some supplements from my warehouse and ask her to take them back," Ma said.
"How can this be done? I have already collected the ointment, how can I still collect your things?" Ye Xiang quickly declined.
"I can't finish it by myself, and I'm not eating it for you, but for my little nephew." Ma didn't allow Ye Xiang to refuse, so she sent Chunying to the warehouse.
When Chunying went to the warehouse, she didn't need to rummage around.
The supplements to be sent out had been packed up by Ma himself two days ago and placed on the table.
Chunying held the supplements and went out.
After Ma's repeated requests, Ye Xiang had no choice but to go back with the supplements.
She put the supplements away and asked the maid in Rose House, "What kind of person is the young lady in our house?"
The maid said: "Tell me, Madam, she is the number one benevolent person in our house. If you do something wrong, Madam will never punish you, she will even comfort you."
Ye Xiang thought of last night. If Ma hadn't come to her rescue, she would have been kicked out of the Hou Mansion.
Ma is such a kind person!
The last doubt in Ye Xiang's heart disappeared.
At noon that day, she took some supplements sent by Ma.

Chen Feng had something to do temporarily, so Fu Zhao went back to his parents' home alone.
When we returned to Fu's house, it was almost time for lunch.
Knowing that Fu Zhao was coming back, Mrs. Cong asked the kitchen staff to clean up early. She also cooked herself with high spirits and made several dishes that Fu Zhao loved.
When Fu Zhao arrived, Mrs. Cong had not even had time to take off her apron.
Mrs. Cong looked at Fu Zhao with a smile, and saw that Fu Zhao was a little more mellow, so she knew that she had not suffered any loss in the Hou Mansion, and felt a little relieved.
Cong looked behind Fu Zhao and asked, "Why didn't the prince come back with you?"
"He has something to do and will arrive later." Fu Zhao replied.
"It doesn't matter if it's a little later. Come on, follow me. Brother Zhou and Sister Yi are eagerly waiting for you to come."
Thinking of his nephew and niece, Fu Zhao couldn't help but quicken his pace and followed Cong.
After they left, a little maid hiding in the dark ran away quietly.
She ran to Fu Qingxin's yard and said a few words to Fu Qingxin.
Fu Qingxin smiled meaningfully and let the maid go out.
She took out a paper bag from her arms, with murderous intent and cruelty in her eyes.
Fu Zhao, Fu Zhao, you can only blame yourself for knowing so many things!
Fu Qingxin didn't like having her handle controlled by Fu Zhao. In the past, she had coaxed Fu Zhao into treating him like a doll in her hands.
Now that she was asked to act based on Fu Zhao's expression, she was really uncomfortable with it.
Moreover, Fu Zhao knew about her life experience, which was tantamount to laying a hidden danger for her.
If one day Fu Zhao publicizes her life experience, what other way will she survive?
Fu Qingxin said viciously to the paper bag: "Go to hell! Go to hell! Anyone who blocks my way should die!"
Aunt Kang came in from outside and said doubtfully: "Qingxin, what are you talking to yourself about?"
When Fu Qingxin looked at Aunt Kang, her face returned to its previous charming look. She smiled innocently and harmlessly, "It's nothing, mother, why are you here? Aren't you helping my sister-in-law?"
"Oh, everything is busy there. Let me tell you that the second aunt is back. Let's go there together." Aunt Kang said.
"Second sister is back? It's great. I'll take care of it right now." Fu Qingxin said in surprise and stood up.
Aunt Kang took Fu Qingxin out. As soon as she walked out of the yard, she heard Fu Qingxin say: "Mom, I also want to go to the kitchen and cook for my second sister myself, and make a dish that my second sister likes."
"You kid, okay, I'll take you there." Aunt Kang said with a smile.
She was also happy to see that Fu Qingxin and Fu Zhao had a good relationship.
"By the way, mother, please don't tell your sister which dish I cooked. I want to give her a surprise." Fu Qingxin said again.
