Chapter 254 The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching

"It's delicious," Xuanyuan Liuyun said while eating. He could eat the handbags of his sister's handbags. He already thought this was the best food in the world.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Liufang's mouth raised slightly.

With a bowl of hand, Xuanyuan Liuyun was soon eaten clean. He put down the spoon with satisfaction, took out the handkerchief in his arms and wiped his mouth.

"Do you like that Mrs. Song very much?" Xuanyuan Liuyun asked as she looked at her sister.

She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "I like it very much. Mrs. Song is a very good person, and she is also my life-savior. How can I not like her!"

In her opinion, Mrs. Song is a unique person. She is kind, courageous, smart, bold, and chivalrous, making people unable to help but want to get close to her and understand her.

"We had a great time today and made an appointment to go to the Nanshan Mountain to see maple leaves after the Mid-Autumn Festival!" After making this agreement with Mrs. Song, she began to look forward to the arrival of that day.

Xuanyuan Liuyun said "Oh" and stopped talking.

Chen Wan is indeed a good person. Fang'er had nothing to worry about when dealing with her. But I hope Fang'er won't learn her bad habit of climbing walls.

Two days later, the escaped coachman of General Qixi's mansion was arrested, and the prefect opened the court to investigate the case again. On the day of the opening, three or four hundred people stood outside the hall to watch.

The coachman was also a corrupt man. Before the prefect began to torture, he took all the tricks and offered a nanny beside the general's wife. He said that it was the nanny who tempted him to do those things.

The prefect immediately ordered someone to take the nanny to the hall for interrogation. The nanny refused to recognize it at first, saying that the coachman was slandering. However, the gangster's voice also pointed out that the woman who was seeking him to rob Wang Jingyun was exactly the same as hers.

The coachman all pointed out her, and the nanny had no way to deny it, so she had to admit it. She said that she was embarrassed by Wang Jingyun's scolding her in public, so she held a grudge and bribed the coachman and found a gangster, trying to destroy her innocence and reputation.

Not to mention the prefectural prefect, even the people who were watching strongly did not believe her. Since she was a slave to Qin, then the one who was trying to harm Miss Wang must be the Qin family.

The prefect asked her a servant where she got so much money and bought out the coachman and the gangster. She said that the money was stolen by Qin's mistress, and said that the servants in the Qin's courtyard knew about Qin's loss of silver. The prefect summoned Qin's family and several servants in her courtyard. Qin and the servants all agreed and insisted that Qin's family did lose hundreds of taels of silver half a month ago.

Wang Jingyun retorted in the hall, saying that she had never heard of Qin's loss of money.

However, Qin said that because she felt that she had become a thief in her yard and was embarrassed to say it, she did not make any statement, so only the people in her yard knew about it.

The prefect knew very well that the magistrate behind the scenes was definitely not this nanny, but the magistrate insisted that she was the magistrate and refused to change his words. Without actual evidence, he could not rely on his own guesses, so he convicted Qin and arrested her.

Unable to do so, the prefect had to close the case, sentenced the nanny to a hundred bans and jail for twenty years.

When the people learned of this result, the people were upset. They all said that the nanny was threatened by Qin and took all the blame. Qin was definitely the real murderer behind the scenes.

Although Qin abandoned her car and protected her coach and evaded the sanctions of the law, she could not escape the verbal punishment of the people. As soon as she left the house, someone pointed and spitted on her back. She also composed a nursery rhyme that scolded her for being vicious, and Qin had become the representative of her vicious stepmother.

The noble ladies in the imperial city did not bother with her. From then on, there was no sign of her in the banquet of the noble ladies in the imperial city. Of course, this is all a story later.

In a blink of an eye, the fifteenth day of August was approaching.

People in this era also celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and also eat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse. After dinner, Chen Wan, Qiuju and Ling'er sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival. How can we celebrate this Mid-Autumn Festival?" Chen Wan lay on the imperial chaise longue and said to Qiu Ju, who was sitting next to her.

In the past, when she celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival, she spent it with her grandmother. At that time, her grandmother would always buy a five-nut mooncake that costs 5 yuan and ten yuan. Although the mooncakes were sweet and not delicious, she would eat them all every time. After getting into college and leaving her hometown, she never ate mooncakes again.

Qiuju thought for a while and said, "Mooncakes are to be eaten. There will be a lantern festival tomorrow night, and a curfew will only start at midnight. We can go out to watch the lantern festival."

The Lantern Festival is so lively. There are many small stalls selling snacks, and many beautiful lanterns. You can also guess riddles! Of course, this is what she heard from others. Because her wife didn't like going out in the past, she didn't have the opportunity to go out to watch the Lantern Festival.

Chen Wan frowned and said, "Forget it, you can go and have a look at the lantern club."

She still wanted to experience the ancient festive atmosphere.

"Don't you eat mooncakes?" Qiuju asked. Isn't it just for the Mid-Autumn Festival? She has already thought about what kind of filling mooncakes to make. I plan to go out to buy ingredients and come back to make them tomorrow morning!

Chen Wan looked at Qiuju and said, "Chrysanthemum! Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes are not the focus." The reunion of people and moon is the focus, and none of them are the three of them who can reunite people and moon.

Qiu Ju seemed to understand something, and looked at the moon in the sky without saying anything.

Chu Ling raised her little head and looked at the moon in the sky. In the past, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the elder brother would hold him, his father and mother, and other brothers and sisters to eat moon cakes and watch singing and dancing performances together.

But now...

Alas! I don’t know, how is the eldest brother doing now? He misses the eldest brother so much! He also wants the dead father and mother.

Chen Wan turned her head and saw Ling'er looking up at the moon with a sad look on her face. She knew that he should have thought of his family as well.

"Ling'er, do you know what's on the moon?" she asked looking at Ling'er.

Ling'er thought for a while and said, "There is Chang'e."

My mother told him that there is a very beautiful fairy Chang'e on the moon.

"There are also jade rabbits who pound medicine." Qiu Ju added.

"Actually on the moon..."

"Knock, knock..." Chen Wan originally wanted to tell them that there was nothing on the moon, but at this time, the knock on the door rang.

"I'll go open the door." Qiuju got up, ran to the entrance of the yard and opened the door.

"General." As soon as she opened the door, she saw the general wearing a moon-white brocade robe standing at the door.

She hurriedly opened the doors and let the general enter.

Song Heng raised his foot and stepped into Qiushi's courtyard. Seeing Chen Wan and Chu Ling looking at the moon in the courtyard, he walked over with great strides.

"Dad." Ling'er stood up and called him.

At night, the big pig's hooves didn't go to Fuyun Pavilion, what should she do?

Chen Wan frowned and still lay on the imperial chaise longue without moving.

"Yes." Song Heng responded and sat on the chair Qiu Ju had just sat on.

Qiu Ju looked at the general and his wife, waved to Ling'er and said, "Ling'er is getting late, it's time to wash up and go to bed."

The general clearly came to find his wife, so let them stay alone for a while!

"Okay!" Ling'er didn't think much about it and followed Qiu Ju back to the house to wash.

Ling'er and Qiu Ju both returned to the house, and only Song Heng and Shen Wan were left in the yard.

Chen Wan was lying on the imperial chaise longue, looking at the moon in the sky, not looking at Song Heng, and not talking to him.
Chapter completed!
