Chapter 473 Leaving

After hearing Chu Lingxuan's words, Chen Afu was extremely reluctant to give up, and tears flowed out involuntarily. After being together for so many years, I really can’t let go of Dabao!

Chu Lingxuan heard his wife's low sobs and said, "Xiao Shiyi has lived with us for so long, and I can't bear to let him go. But he is a prince and does not belong to us. We can send him out safely and reunite him with his family." , the huge stone weighing on our hearts has finally fallen to the ground... This is a happy event."

Chen Afu wiped his head on his shoulder and said with a choked voice, "I know that little thing is actually a big trouble. I should be happy to be able to send him back safely. But..."

Hearing that his wife was not telling the truth, Chu Lingxuan had nothing to do. In his heart, he really hoped to get rid of that big trouble as soon as possible.

The two hugged each other for a while, and Chu Lingxuan said again, "This is a great event worth celebrating. I would like to ask my second brother to come to the house for a few drinks."

Chen Afu felt empty at this moment, feeling sour and reluctant to give up. She wanted to do things, talk, and fill her heart without thinking about the sadness of the upcoming separation. But I can't do anything else, and I can't say many things. Now, she can only cook. Then he said, "Let the second uncle come here to drink, and I will go to the small kitchen to cook you some side dishes."

Chen Afu led several girls to the small kitchen in the backyard and cooked some of Chu Lingxuan's favorite side dishes, as well as a mutton pot.

Hong Fei was very confused and didn't know what happened to his master. He was obviously very happy just now, but now he suddenly became sad again. His eyes were red and he had obviously cried.

Chu Lingxuan and Chu Lingqi drank in the west room until midnight, and both of them became drunk. Since Chu Lingqi came to Dingzhou Mansion, he has also learned a lot of secrets about the Chu family, including the fact that the Chu family belongs to the Ninth Prince and is making various efforts for the Ninth Prince to become the crown prince.

Of course, even if Chu Lingxuan was drunk, he would not dare to tell the inside story that Dabao was the eleventh prince. Xiao Shiyi's identity can only be revealed by sending him to the palace.

Seeing two drunk men crawling on the table, Chen Afu asked someone to help Chu Lingqi to the outer courtyard to rest. He and Hong Fei helped Chu Lingxuan to the bed, took off his clothes and wiped his face.

The next day, Chen Afu wrote a letter to Wang and asked someone to send it to the countryside quickly. He said that his family would go to the capital in five days, and they might stay in the Hou Mansion from now on, so that they could come and get together.

From now on, my family will still be able to meet the Wang family occasionally, but for Dabao, I'm afraid it won't be easy for them to meet each other in the future.

Chen Dabao was raised by the Wang family. He has lived with their family of three for so many years and has a very deep relationship. But Chen Afu couldn't tell them Dabao's true identity, so he could only ask them to come and spend more time with Dabao.

The Wang family came to Dingzhou Mansion the next day and went directly to the Chu family, bringing with them Wang Cai and Yuan Bao. Yuanbao's belly is a bit big, as if he is about to give birth to a baby.

Chen Afu and others did not have lunch, so they waited for them to come and eat together.

Chen Dabao didn't know that he would never see "Grandma", "Grandpa" and "Uncle" again. He even asked them, "Grandma, Grandma and Uncle, what do you like? I will buy it for you in the capital and have people bring it back." ”

Mrs. Wang held him in her arms, touched his face and then his head, feeling very reluctant to let go. The infant baby suddenly grew into such a handsome young man.

Mrs. Wang is not worried about the other children, they are all of the blood of the Hou family. And Dabao is just an adopted son. Although the relatives and son-in-law will be kind to Dabao, there are others in the Hou family, and not everyone will be kind to Dabao. It is said that once you enter a noble family, it is as deep as the sea, not to mention that Dabao is still so young, she is afraid that he will be wronged in the future...

But he couldn't express what he was thinking, so he still said with a smile, "Grandma's family has a good life, and everything is lacking. Dabao is a grown-up child. He must take good care of himself in the future, work hard, be promising, and earn a good future in the future. ”

Speaking of the back, my eyes were red.

Dabao saw the reluctance in his grandma's eyes, and he couldn't let go of his grandma and her family. He said, "Grandma, you will come to the capital more often in the future. My fifth uncle said that the Marquis Mansion is very big, and I will ask my mother to prepare a special courtyard for you to live in." He added, "As soon as I arrive in the capital, I will buy Zuixian for grandpa. I buy the shochu from the shop, the embroidery from the Jinyun Embroidery Shop for my grandma, and the brushes and inkstones from the Wen Shang Zhai shop for my uncle. I now have a lot of money for my private life, more than a hundred taels."

Miss Chu on the side listened and said, "I also have private money to bring gifts to grandpa, grandma, and uncle."

Mrs. Wang hugged the little girl again and said, "Thank you, sister. Grandma's family is not short of anything, as long as you, brother, sister and your mother live a comfortable life."

Chen Ming was also reluctant to part with them, but he thought that he would go to the capital a few more times in the future and would always be able to see them, so he was not as sad as Wang.

Alu thought further. My sister said in the letter that Mr. Liao will still come to Dingzhou Mansion on the 20th. After he passes the scholar examination, he may not leave his hometown to teach him in Dingzhou Mansion. But as long as he is admitted as a scholar, the Chu family will find a way for him to study in the Imperial College. At that time, he would see his sister, nieces and nephews frequently again. Moreover, he hoped that he could get good grades in the exam and enter the Imperial College based on his grades without asking his brother-in-law to help.

Mrs. Wang took out another set of clothes she had made for Dabao and compared them. They were just right. She touched his head and smiled, "This is the clothes grandma made for you. On your eighth birthday, grandma is not here with you... Hey, time flies so fast. My grandson should be eight years old now."

Chen Afu was reluctant to leave Wang and Chen Ming, and said, "Dad, Mom, when I have established myself in the capital, I will buy you a house there. When you have nothing to do, you can live in the capital. Xinglong Restaurant will soon open in the capital, and maybe my third uncle's family will live in the capital for a long time in the future. I heard from my uncle that if he becomes an official in the capital in the future, he will also transfer my uncle here."

Although Chen Afu and his mother returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Chu Lingxuan would still temporarily serve in Dingzhou Prefecture.

Chen Ming and his friends were also left behind at night and lived in Chaohua Courtyard with Dabao.

The next day, Chu Lingqi and the Song family moved into the deputy general's mansion.

Chen Afu and Chu Lingxuan invited guests to the mansion for two days, including several good friends, including the Fu family, the Qin family, the Liu family, etc. There were also relatives, Chen Shiying's family, Wang Cheng's family, and Chen Shi's family.

On the fourth day, they packed up their things, and relatives and friends sent a lot of gifts.

Chen Afu also assigned the servants. Because Chu Lingxuan and Lechen will stay in the mansion for a while, most of the servants in the mansion will stay here for the time being. She still brought a few useful maids and stewards to the mansion, including Luo Fang's family, so that they would be more convenient to use. Qingfeng stayed, and she would get married in two months, and her in-laws were here.
