Chapter 203

The next day

Mrs. Liu was drinking millet porridge comfortably in the house and eating exquisite side dishes.

"Old lady, the second lady is here." The eldest maid in her room came into the house to report.

Liu hurriedly said, "Let the second wife come in quickly."

After a while, Lin Qingxue led Madam Lin into the house. Seeing that Mrs. Liu was still using breakfast, she blessed her and said to her: "My daughter-in-law pays me a blessing. My daughter-in-law was unfortunate enough to disturb her for dinner."

Liu smiled and said, "You happened to be here! Come and use some with me. There are so many dishes that I can't finish it alone."

Now, Qingxue is in charge of the family, and there are four or five good dishes in the morning. Although she has a good appetite, she can’t finish it. Since Qingxue is in charge of the family, she has used a feeling of enjoying wealth and prosperity.

Lin Qingxue walked up to her, sat next to Liu, and said softly: "No, my daughter-in-law has used it."

"Mom, use it first. After using some important things in my daughter-in-law, I will tell you about it." Lin Qingxue's expression was a little solemn.

"What's the important thing?" Liu asked with chopsticks. Seeing Lin Qingxue's expression so serious, she felt that this matter was probably not small.

"Mom, please use breakfast first! I'm afraid that if my daughter-in-law says it now, you won't be able to eat it anymore."

After hearing what she said, Liu could no longer eat it. She put down her chopsticks and looked at Lin Qingxue nervously and asked, "Tell me quickly, what is the important thing?"

Lin Qingxue bit her lip, looking very hesitant.

"Tell me quickly! Are you going to be anxious?" Liu slapped his thighs in a hurry.

"Is it because something happened to Heng'er or Ziling?" In this world, the son and grandson are the ones that worry about Liu the most.

Lin Qingxue shook her head and said, "No, it's not my husband and Ziling, but my sister."

"Shen Wan?" Liu frowned, with no hint of urgency on his face, and asked lightly: "What's wrong with her?"

Could it be that her illness has worsened?

"That's right," Lin Qingxue looked at Liu and said, "In the past two days, I heard from people outside that in order to save a little beggar, my sister offended the eldest son of Anding Hou Mansion, and even detained the charge of treason for rebellion, which caused the eldest son of Anding Hou Mansion to be beaten and put into prison."

"Oh," Liu nodded, thought for a while and said, "It's right for her to save people. The eldest son of the Marquis of Anding's Mansion was beaten and went to prison. That should be because he was indeed guilty."

Even if she saw a child on the roadside being bullied, she would have to go up and say a few words.

Lin Qingxue was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, Liu was a person with such a positive view. Generally, this rural old woman who had never seen the world had an old woman. When she heard that her family had offended the people from the Hou's Mansion, shouldn't she worry about whether it would affect her son's career?

"The old lady doesn't know anything," Madam Lin bent down and said, "The Anding Hou is the eldest brother-in-law of the current emperor, the crown prince of the Marquis of Anding, and the most beloved nephew of the emperor. The Anding Hou Mansion is the most noble of this imperial city and cannot be offended. The Emperor will punish the eldest son because it is so popular among the people, in order to appease the hearts of the people. Now, everyone knows that the person who caused the eldest son of Anding Hou Mansion to be punished is from our General's Mansion in Zhenbei. The eldest wife gave the eldest son a hat of rebellion, and the crown prince a hat of rebellion. How can Anding Hou and the Prince give up? In the future, in the court, we will have to make things difficult for our generals."

"Oh!" Madam Lin sighed and glanced at Liu, whose face had changed, and said, "The emperor loved Prince Anding Hou the most and offended the Anding Hou Mansion. Our general's future official career is probably..."

She said half of the words and didn't finish her sentence. The other half was left to the old lady Liu to think about it herself.

"Wouldn't Chen Wan cause a big disaster?" Liu shouted, slamming the table.

The Anding Hou Mansion is a royal relative, and the prince is the beloved nephew of the emperor. If he offended them, how could Heng'er have a good life in the court? If he had resentment and intentionally made things difficult for Heng'er, he would just make a crime and make Heng'er unable to become a general, but what should he do? This is the wealth and glory that Heng'er earned with sweat, blood, and life!

This damn Chen Wan really caused a big disaster, which has implicated Heng'er and General Zhenbei's Mansion!

Lin Qingxue was secretly happy, but nodded with concern on her face and said, "Sister has indeed caused a big disaster. There is another thing that my daughter-in-law wants to tell her mother."

"It's related to Chen Wan?"

"Yes," Lin Qingxue nodded.

Liu held his forehead and bit his back teeth and said, "How many disasters did she cause?"

"This is not a disaster," Lin Qingxue said: "I heard that my sister had a lucky couplet a few days ago, and got an inkstone, and sold it for three thousand taels of silver."

She couldn't even get rid of such a wonderful couplet. How could Chen Wan's village woman be able to get rid of it? She must have heard it from somewhere else.

Now, everyone outside praises this. Chen Wan's village woman is a hero and a hero who is not afraid of power. She is also said to be a peerless talented woman, but she is really angry.

Those foolish people are blind and mistakenly regarding fish eyes as pearls. Chen Wan's ignorant village woman is just a fish eyes, a pool of mud.

"Three thousand taels of silver? Why didn't she say anything?" Liu was very angry. How big was three thousand taels of silver? Chen Wan didn't even mention it, and just held the silver in her hands. In the past, she would hand it over to her mother-in-law if she had worked hard to earn ten coins.

"This Chen Wan is really becoming more and more distorted."
