Chu Lingxuan meant to let Chen Ming keep the two thousand taels of silver and buy some properties for himself. He felt that everyone in the neighborhood knew that Chen Afu was not Chen Ming's daughter, and he couldn't let others think that the daughter he raised was married to a rich family to enjoy happiness, and let his adoptive father buy so much dowry. In this way, both the Chu family and Chen Afu are prone to gossip.

Chen Afu also thought that before getting married, he would leave another 2,000 silver to Chen Ming to make their lives better.

She gave a lot of money to Chen Ming in private, mainly because she was afraid of being remembered by Chen Ye and Hu. Outsiders only know that the 100 acres of land in Luyuan and Laohuai Village in Zhongning County were given by Chen Afu, and they don't know anything else, including the shares and silver of the restaurant, and the money for Chen Ming's dowry. Chen Ye's family would never tell outsiders that the shares of Xinglong Restaurant in Dingzhou Mansion were made by Chen Afu for Chen Ming, and they didn't even say that the big house was a white share.

Not only did Hu's eyes widen and pay attention to Chen Ming's purse, but the eyes of all the villagers nearby also opened wide to see her Chen Afu's performance, wanting to see if she was "grateful for her kindness".

A destitute family inadvertently picked up a "golden phoenix", when this "golden phoenix" is about to fly into someone else's house, what will it leave for the family who takes her in......

No matter how much you give Chen Ming, as long as outsiders don't know, they will make Chen Ming worthless, this is the public psychology. She doesn't care about other people's opinions, but Chu Lingxuan, a local youth, can't care less about her daughter-in-law's reputation.

But Chen Ming was very stubborn this time, that is, he did not leave the bride price of 2,000 taels of silver. He said that he wanted to set an example for everyone in the Chen family, including Ah Lu, and resolutely not take what should not be taken.

Of course, he didn't want Chen Afu to be blamed. After thinking for a while, he said, "One yard to one yard." I won't keep a penny of the bride money under the Chu family, but Ah Fu can take out the equivalent amount of silver again and ask Old Man Zeng to buy some fields for me. Let everyone know that Ah Fu honored me so much land before he got married, and he is a good boy who remembers his feelings. ”

Chen Afu heard that it was better, his adoptive father and daughter, one was affectionate and the other was righteous.

At noon, Chen Afu's mother and son and Chu Hanyan would have dinner in Luyuan, and Chu Ling returned to Dingzhou Mansion after announcing the dowry, preparing to go to the capital.

Dabao came to Luyuan, he directly ignored these dowry, not only didn't ask a word, but didn't even look at it.

During the meal, Dabao told Chen Alu with great interest what Mr. said this morning. Everyone could see that his mouth was smiling, but his eyes were red, and he was forcing a smile.

Halfway through the meal, he said he wanted to go to the hut. When he came out of the hut, his eyes were even redder.

Seeing him like this, Chen Afu, Wang, and Chen Ming's hearts were very uncomfortable.

Wang stroked his head and said, "Dabao, after your mother gets married, not only will she love you as before, but my grandfather and uncle will also love you as before, and there will be no difference in your life." ”

Ah Lu said, "The only difference is that you have an extra father, and I have an extra brother-in-law, which is better." ”

Chu Hanyan hurriedly said, "There is a difference, my brother has a younger sister, and my uncle has a nephew and daughter." ”

These two children, one is stupid and the other is too fine.

Everyone laughed.

Dabao also smiled. The way of the heart, not only is these two different, but they are all different. After laughing, he put down his chopsticks and said, "Mother, I have some diarrhea and don't want to eat." ”

Chen Afu sighed, "Then don't eat it, go back and rest." Don't go to class next day, my mother will ask you to take a leave. ”

Dabao got off the kang and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the house first." You eat slowly. ”

After saying that, he left with his head down.

Chu Hanyan still wanted to follow, but was stopped by Chen Afu. Maybe Dabao wants to be alone for a while, so let him think about it.

Chu Xiaoniu and Qiu Yue knew that the little master was in a bad mood today, and they didn't dare to get too close to him, so they only followed him from a distance.

Chen Dabao went back to his room, bolted the door, and then lay on the bed and covered his head with the quilt and cried.

When he was in class, he heard the movement and knew that it was Daddy Chu who went to Luyuan to be hired.

In the past few days, his mother has told him a lot, telling him that his mother will still like him after getting married, and he will be happier in the future.

My mother wanted to go to the capital to marry Daddy Chu, not only could she not take him there, but she also didn't take her sister there, and asked him to take her sister to wait for them at home......

He knew that the day he feared was coming soon, whether he wanted it or not. His mother is getting married, and his mother will no longer be his mother alone, she is still the mother of Yan'er's sister, the daughter-in-law of Chu's father, the daughter-in-law of Abbot Lichen, and the granddaughter-in-law of Old Marquis Chu......

In the future, the family is not only him and his mother, but a large family. His mother's dearest and dearest person is not him, but Daddy Chu.

When he doesn't know? He knows more tightly, even more than his uncle.

Husband and wife are the two people who will never be separated. Even if Grandma lives in the same yard with his grandfather, he won't sleep in the same room, and it is his daughter-in-law Hu who sleeps in the same room with his grandfather. It was not his mother Hu who slept in the same room with Uncle Gui, but his daughter-in-law Gao.

Thinking of the picture he gave to his mother, his heart was even more uncomfortable, and he was afraid that he would cry too loudly, so he quickly blocked his mouth with a quilt.

He and his mother will not hold hands forever, there will always be a day when they let go. And the one who can always hold hands with his mother is Daddy Chu.

He knew that his mother's love for him would not change, and he also knew that Daddy Chu was a good person, but he just didn't like another man inserted between him and his mother.

However, he is not his mother's little son-in-law, nor is he his mother's own son, but just an orphan picked up by his grandmother in the grove! He has no right to object, even if he is not happy.

It's very, very difficult for his mother to be so good to him. He had heard that there was a woman in Sheung Shui Village who broke her former stepson's legs, and he also knew that his grandmother's stepmother had sold her little brother for five taels of silver. These bad women are so cruel to their sons who are not their own sons, but his mother is so kind, a thousand good, ten thousand good.

He can't be dissatisfied, and he can't please his mother. In the future, you can't please Daddy Chu......

Chen Afu took Chu Hanyan back to Fuyuan, and saw Qiu Yue standing by the window of the east wing bedroom listening to the movement inside.

Qiu Yue saw Chen Afu coming back, tiptoed to Chen Afu, and said in a low voice, "Big girl, just now the slave heard my brother crying on the quilt for a while, but now there is no movement, I should be asleep." ”

Chen Afu was sad when she heard this, and asked Qiao'er to take Chu Hanyan to the upper room to rest, and she went to the East Wing Hall.
