The relationship between the sisters was not good, and Gong Ling'er could no longer be favored. She was also a sister. Therefore, Fang Li, the brother-in-law, was not easy to argue with her.
Gong Tian'er couldn't see Chu Yunli's aggressiveness and couldn't help but said, "Do you know the status of Fuhua Villa in the world and you dare to talk nonsense?"
Chu Yunli was indifferent and not angry, "I don't know! But our family is here. Just like you think, Xilai Town is just a small place. The Xu family lives in the mountains all year round and sees no outsiders.
Even if I knew it, I wouldn’t have anywhere to talk about it.”
"I see that you have high regard for that villa. It shows that its status is not low. Are you just curious about how you could lose your child? If you are not willing to tell me, forget it."
Father Gong spoke up, "Our family finally got together, don't make any noise, it will hurt our feelings."
Gong Tianer rolled her eyes, "Who wants to quarrel with her? I'm too lazy to talk to her."
Father Gong was displeased and scolded, "Sisters should support each other. What are you saying?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mrs. Shen hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Tian'er is in a bad mood. She is already a mother and knows how to deal with things."
Mentioning that he was in a bad mood, Fang Li lowered his head and drank the soup.
Father Gong's expression softened, "Tian'er, you are old now, you should know the choice. You have been married for many years, and you have given birth to the eldest grandson of the Fang family. No one can compare with you."
Chu Yunli was curious, but with a calm face, she raised her hand to serve Xu Ping'an some soup.
Gong Tian'er over there heard her father's words and tears fell down, "I know...but I just feel wronged..."
Before he finished speaking, tears fell.
Fang Li hurriedly wiped her tears and said, "Tian'er, don't cry. Don't you understand my feelings for you?"
Gong Tian'er cried harder and harder, lying on the table and whimpering, crying and saying indistinctly, "I don't dare to cry at home. It's your luck that people like you, but I... who made me not do anything?"
Where is the elder’s father…”
Next, everyone comforted Gong Tian'er. Xu Ping'an had already gone out to play at Chu Yunli's signal. Chu Yunli was holding a bowl of soup and drinking it slowly.
After a long time, Gong Tian'er had enough crying. He looked up and saw Chu Yunli drinking soup, and said angrily, "I knew you were watching my joke."
Chu Yunli looked confused, "I was concentrating on drinking soup, why did I offend you? Besides, isn't it just a concubine? My brother-in-law is devoted to you. Isn't it better for you to live a better life than a widow like me?"
Gong Tian'er: "..."
After this calculation, it seems that being a widow is indeed more miserable.
She hummed softly, "Ali's wife is the only daughter of the fifth elder of Fuhua Villa. After the Chinese New Year, the Fang family will move to the town below Fuhua Villa so that he can visit his daughter." As she said this, she felt a little confused.
Proudly, "Any yard in Fuhua Town costs over a thousand taels. When I settle down, I'll invite you to come and play."
Chu Yunli really couldn't understand what was so proud about this.
If you follow your husband to live in another woman's house, will you still be able to live well by then?
However, Chu Yunli still wanted to see it. Firstly, she wanted to see what level of martial arts the current man had? Secondly, she wanted to see whether the third young master was Xu Liangxin.
Chu Yunli nodded immediately, "Okay! I will definitely come then."
Gong Tianer: "...will your father-in-law and mother-in-law let you travel far away?"
If Gong Ling'er wanted to go out and wander around as a widow in the past, the Xu family would naturally not agree. But now, Chu Yunli wants to go out to find out what she wants, and the Xu family and his wife should not refuse.
"I should be willing." Chu Yunli said seriously, "They are very good to me now."
Whether it's mental skills or sword skills, you have to ask her, it won't work if you don't do it right!
The Gong family all looked disbelieving, and Ms. Shen was curious, "It's been three years, and they haven't urged you to remarry? Or, do you want to remarry yourself?"
"No! I don't want to!" Chu Yunli did not hesitate.
It wouldn't be bad enough if Mrs. Shen helped her with matchmaking. Although this stepmother didn't treat Gong Ling'er specifically, she didn't have any good intentions.
"It's good to stay in the Xu family." Father Gong sighed, "The Xu family is not big. Ping An is already five years old. In a few years, when the children are older and they are older, your life will be easier."
To put it simply, it means to endure, to endure the Xu family to death, so that they can enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren in the future. To put it more bluntly, Gong Ling'er's life has now come to an end.
Speaking of the Xu family, Ms. Shen was curious, "Why have your father-in-law and mother-in-law been living in the mountains these past few years?"
"Quiet!" Chu Yunli stood up, "It's getting late, I finally made it down the mountain, and I have to buy some things. I can't walk fast with Ping An, so I have to go back."
Before leaving, she smiled at Fang Li and said, "Brother-in-law, we are not outsiders. You must tell me when the Fang family moves. I will personally send you a gift!"
After returning, Chu Yunli said nothing about what happened to the Gong family. Everything in the Xu family went as usual. They practiced swordplay in the morning and meditated from afternoon to night. The Xu family only slept four hours a day and spent the rest of their time practicing martial arts.
.
As autumn turns to winter, the weather gradually gets colder. Xishan is much higher than the town, and it is also much colder.
However, the Xu family now has internal strength and is not afraid of the cold at all. Even Xu Ping'an, who has been practicing martial arts for more than half a year, is not afraid of the cold. Even though he has only practiced for more than half a year, he is already catching up with Xu Ping'an, who has been practicing seriously for three years.
We are a married couple.
Xu Ping'an learned so quickly, which proved that he was extremely talented, and Xu's father was very pleased.
During dinner that day, Xu Pingan's talent was mentioned for some reason. Xu's father smiled and said, "I heard that Fuhua Villa recruits disciples every three years. With a talent as high as Pingan's, if he is given a gift then,
go……"
"Don't go!" Mrs. Zhou flatly refused. "Liangxin just went out to see him and lost his life. Our Xu family only needs to be safe. If something happens to him, we don't have to live."
Father Xu sighed and said no more.
Chu Yunli smiled and said, "My sister's husband's family is the Fang family in the county. They will move to Fuhua Town in the twelfth lunar month. We should go and celebrate the move."
Hearing this, Xu's father looked surprised, "Fuhua Villa is thousands of miles away from the county seat, how could it be moved there?"
Chu Yunli smiled slightly, "My brother-in-law is a disciple of the Villa."
"Ah, really?" Not only Xu's father, but also Mrs. Zhou looked surprised, "Why haven't I heard you talk about it?"
She didn't want to send her grandson away, but she was curious about the martial arts skills of the people in the villa.
"I just found out." Chu Yunli continued, "In the first half of the year, the daughter of the fifth elder of Fuhua Villa was married to him as his equal wife. The fifth elder did not want his daughter to marry far away, so he married his daughter to Fuhua Villa.
The Fang family originally planned to move to the courtyard after the new year, but now the fifth elder misses their daughter and asked them to go to the villa to celebrate the new year, so they moved there before the new year."
Father Xu frowned and looked at Mrs. Zhou, "Will your sister be wronged?"
So who knows?
Chu Yunli shook her head, "I'm not close to her, so just give her a congratulatory gift."
Xu's father looked at the snow outside and said, "It's a long way to go and it's snowy again. How can we get there? Why don't you ask your father to help and bring you a gift? That's all."
It seems that Gong's father mentioned it once when the Fang family moved in the previous life. However, at that time, Gong Ling'er was as quiet as a quail in the Xu family. In the end, Xu's father prepared a gift and sent it to the Gong family, and Gong's father took it with him.
"It's good to go." Chu Yunli smiled and said, "I also want to go to Fuhua Town to see the martial arts of those people and pick up a sword manual for Ping An."
Mrs. Zhou also frowned, "Are you going by yourself?"
What else?
Ping An is still young, and Xu Jia and his wife have never been out of Xilai Town in their lives. Now that the weather is bad, even if they want to go out and see things, they have to wait until the spring of next year.
"Go ahead, I'll help you prepare a gift." After Xu's father said this, he paused and said, "I'll give you some money. You can buy a suitable gift after you go to Fuhua Town."
On the twentieth day of the winter lunar month, Chu Yunli got on the carriage and left Xilai Town, followed by the Gong family and his wife.
Gong's father went to Fuhua Town. Firstly, it was to celebrate the relocation of Fang's family. Secondly, Gong Mingyue was not coming back to celebrate the New Year this year, so he was waiting in Fushan Town.
It was only when he arrived at the county seat that Chu Yunli realized that there was no government office at the moment. Each county seat had a place called the Chenchen Division. Whether it was taxation or various local disputes, all were under the jurisdiction of the Chenchen Division.
And the boss of the Chen Division is none other than Fuhua Villa!
In this case, it is no wonder that Father Gong wanted to send his son to the villa.
Chu Yunli was riding in a carriage alone. Father Gong would occasionally talk to her, but Mrs. Shen ignored her. After arriving at the county seat, the carriage went straight to Fuhua Town without stopping.
The carriages of the Gong family and the Xu family were quite simple, and they did not meet any robbers along the way. After more than half a month, the group of people arrived at Fuhua Town after a long journey.
Xilai Town is a town, and Fuhua Town is also a town, but there are differences between these towns.
Fuhua Town is very large, even larger than the county town where the Fang family originally lived. Moreover, the town is prosperous, with three- and four-story restaurants and tea shops everywhere. There are many people on the streets, and the New Year is approaching, and festive colors can be seen everywhere. They arrived
It was evening, and soon after entering the city it became dark. But the streets were as bright as day, and knights with swords and knives could be seen everywhere, and there were also sassy women dressed as knights and showing off in the streets.
Chu Yunli was very interested. They first found an inn to stay at, and then sent someone to inform the Fang family.
The next morning, after Chu Yunli got up, she went to the embroidery building opposite the inn, bought a set of cool clothes and changed her hair into a bun. Her temperament was completely different. When she came back, Father Gong almost didn't recognize her daughter.
Apart from her face, the gentle and graceful temperament of her daughter is nowhere to be found.
After Ms. Shen recognized her, she looked up and down quite unexpectedly, "She looks pretty good. I'm going to change my outfit too." She asked casually, "How much does this outfit cost?"
Chu Yunli smiled lightly, "Five taels of silver."
Mrs. Shen was surprised, "So expensive? You can buy ten sets in Xilai Town." She asked sourly, "How much money did your parents-in-law give you this trip? Don't worry about the expense if you don't go back then.
We won’t take you.”
The Xu family is indeed richer than the Gong family. Besides, Xu's father bought spiritual methods and medicine three years ago. He knows that anything with martial arts is very expensive. Before she came here, she said she wanted to buy sword skills, but Xu's father gave her to her.
She has a lot of money, "You don't need to worry about it, I know it well."
Hearing this, Mrs. Shen's expression became even worse, "The Xu family is very generous. If it were another family, they would never let their widowed daughter-in-law go out, let alone give you a large sum of money. You must be self-aware and don't be greedy."
Chu Yunli: "...you are jealous of me!"
"Isn't it just a set of clothes? In fact, it's not necessary. You can ask my father to buy them for you too!"
