Mother Qiu pursed her lips and smiled. It seemed that Siqi was attracted, so she continued: "You know Hongyue, she was sent here by the current lady. She has no foundation here. I can also make her become the crown prince in the courtyard.
Hongyue’s future. If I hadn’t been ill and had to go back to recuperate, I don’t know what Hongyue’s future would have been..."
Siqi didn't want to listen anymore. She knew what Mother Qiu would say next without even having to listen.
Mother Qiu actually regarded her as a figure like the red moon, and Si Qi felt insulted.
Si Qi said sternly: "Mom, Hongyue eloped with someone. You'd better not mention her again in the future, otherwise the Crown Prince's wife will be unhappy. My future is in the hands of the Crown Prince's wife.
.No matter how the Crown Prince’s wife arranges for me in the future, I won’t have a second thought.”
This was the first time that Mother Qiu was spoken to like this.
Back then, she was the mother in charge of the prince's courtyard. Hongyue led the maids and treated her respectfully.
How dare Siqi treat her like this?
What Si Qi said, both implicitly and externally, was that he wanted to be loyal to the Crown Prince's wife.
This wife of the Crown Prince is just a woman from a small family, but she has a prettier appearance. What is so good about her?
Mother Qiu angrily scolded: "I am willing to support you, but you don't know what is good and what is bad..."
Halfway through, a voice of greeting suddenly came from the courtyard. It should be that the prince and his wife were back.
A smile appeared on Qiu's mother's face. She hadn't seen the prince for a long time.
She quickly straightened her clothes and straightened her hair before heading towards the door.
She heard the movement at the door, opened the curtain with her own hands, and saw Chen Feng as expected.
Mother Qiu choked with sobs and called the Crown Prince, then she knelt down and saluted, "I have been away for too long and have not been by the Crown Prince's side. Please forgive me!"
Chen Feng grabbed Mama Qiu's arm and prevented Mama Qiu from kneeling down.
Chen Feng said: "Mom, there is no need to be polite. You are going home to recuperate. How is your health?"
Mother Qiu was the late wife's roommate and she watched him grow up. He was always polite to Mother Qiu.
After his mother died, there were not many old friends left in the Hou Mansion.
Most of the late wife's dowry and companions have left the Hou Mansion for various reasons.
Therefore, he was also very tolerant of Mama Qiu.
Mother Qiu felt a huge force lifting her up, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
The prince is a nostalgic person, and he still treats her as before.
Mother Qiu knew that her position in the prince's courtyard was still stable.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, my old slave's body and bones are all healed," Mother Qiu replied.
Chen Feng said yes and went into the house.
Mother Qiu stood aside to make way for Chen Feng. She glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw Fu Zhao and others following Chen Feng.
Mother Qiu's eyes dimmed, and she pretended not to see Fu Zhao, and walked directly in front of Fu Zhao.
She paused and pretended to bump into Fu Zhao accidentally, "Hey, which maid is so blind? My old bones can't bear to be bumped into!"
Looking back, Mother Qiu was surprised, "It turns out to be the Crown Prince's wife. I didn't do it on purpose. Don't argue with me."
Fu Zhao was immersed in his own thoughts when he was caught off guard by Qiu's mother and fell into Liangsui's arms.
Liangsui held Fu Zhao tightly to prevent Fu Zhao from falling down.
Liang Sui gritted her teeth. This mother Qiu is so strong. How can she be an old woman?
She was so angry that she wanted to argue with Qiu's mother, but Fu Zhao stopped her.
Fu Zhao is not in the mood right now. On this day of family reunion, she always misses Fu Shaowen particularly.
She knew that Mother Qiu wanted to give her a blow on purpose, but she really didn't have much energy to compete with Mother Qiu.
Fu Zhao waved his hand tiredly, signaling Liangsui not to argue with Qiu's mother.
Seeing Fu Zhao's weakness, Mother Qiu laughed silently.
As expected, he comes from a small family, has little knowledge, and has a weak temperament, so he is easy to handle.
When she opened her mouth and wanted to say something more, she saw Chen Feng walking back again.
The words that came to his mouth changed. "Do you have any other instructions, Your Majesty? Why don't you let me help you wash up?"
Chen Feng passed by Qiu's mother expressionlessly, took Fu Zhao's hand, and led Fu Zhao inside.
His gaze passed over Mother Qiu without any hesitation. There was clearly no emotion in his eyes, but Mother Qiu felt an inexplicable chill on her back.
Qiu's mother wanted to tell Chen Feng that she didn't bump into Fu Zhao on purpose, but she felt that she didn't have three hundred taels of silver here.
Mother Qiu had no choice but to purse her lips and stand aside.
Liangsui deliberately knocked away Qiu's mother and went into the house.
Mother Qiu was hit by Liangsui, and she was so angry that she wanted to rush up and teach Liangsui, this ignorant maid, a lesson. However, because she was afraid of Chen Feng, Mother Qiu had to hold back her anger.
Chen Feng took Fu Zhao and sat down on the couch. He waved his hand and asked all the servants in the room to go outside the partition.
Chen Feng asked: "What happened?"
Fu Zhao replied softly: "It's nothing."
After a while, when he heard no movement from Chen Feng, Fu Zhao couldn't help but raise his head and saw Chen Feng staring at him, with anger seemingly hidden in his eyes.
Fu Zhao quickly lowered his head.
After a while, Chen Feng sighed from above his head.
Chen Feng raised his hand and touched Fu Zhao's head, and said slowly: "Don't you even believe me?"
Fu Zhao's shoulders shook. Yes, Chen Feng is her husband. If she continues to be so guarded against Chen Feng, it will definitely chill Chen Feng's heart.
Fu Zhao said: "I am thinking of my brother."
After he finished speaking, Fu Zhao could hear a cry in his voice.
Her shoulders were shaking and she gritted her teeth to prevent herself from crying.
When she heard Fu Zhao mention her brother, a complicated emotion flashed in Chen Feng's eyes.
He raised his hand and wanted to put it on Fu Zhao's shoulder to comfort Fu Zhao, but for the first time, fear arose in his heart.
If Fu Zhao knew the truth...
Fu Zhao took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said shyly: "Today is a good day, I shouldn't be like this. It's late at night, let's take a rest first."
Fu Zhao got up and went to the partition door to call the maid to come in.
Chen Feng's hand hung in the air and he took it back for a long time.
*
Lying in bed, Fu Zhao couldn't sleep and was afraid of waking Chen Feng, so he was even cautious when turning over.
I don't know how long it took, but she couldn't bear it any longer and fell asleep.
Fu Zhao's regular breathing sounded, and Chen Feng opened his eyes, which were clear and not sleepy at all.
Chen Feng turned his head and looked at Fu Zhao's sleeping face.
Fu Zhao slept very uneasily, and his eyebrows would wrinkle from time to time.
