The old marquis Chu Guangche moved out of An Rongtang on the fifteenth day and lived in the Jin Courtyard in the outer courtyard. Then, the renovation of Aneido Hall began. One in, two in, three do not need to be decorated, three into the main house only to change the furniture, the key is to four in, five into the house to redecorate.

After that, Chu Lingxuan and Chen Afu lived in Sanjin, the little brothers lived in Sijin, and Chu Hanyan and Xiao Yuer lived in Wujin.

Originally, a girl as big as Chu Hanyan should live in a yard by herself, but the little girl was obviously unwilling. Chen Afu also wanted to take her with him more to learn about some human accidents, so he left her up to live alone after she was twelve years old.

There is no north room in the fourth room, only the east and west wings, Brother Yu lives in the east chamber, and Brother Ming lives in the west chamber.

Chu Hanyan and Xiao Yu'er both live in the back cover room of Wujin, and the middle hall is shared by the two of them. The east room is Chu Hanyan's bedroom, and the east side room is her living room and study. The west house is Xiao Yuer's bedroom, and the west side room is her living room.

A few lilac trees are planted in the courtyard, so it is called the lilac hall, which is dedicated to entertaining guests, or having important things at home to eat here.

Just one An Rong Hall is so big, and the entire Yong'an Hou Mansion is even bigger. Wait until the three-bedroom family moves out again, such a big house is only your own family, and the space is empty. Even if the old marquis and the old lady occasionally go back to live in the house, they won't take up much space.

In his past and present lives, Chen Afu was worried about his family for the first time. Thinking of the palace and the palace, which was bigger than this house, Xiao Shiyi lived there alone, Chen Afu was even more distressed.

She told Chu Lingxuan about her thoughts, and Chu Lingxuan smiled, "Then let's have a few more children." When the children grow up and marry a daughter-in-law, and have a few more grandchildren, the house will be bigger. As for the prince, our daughter looks like you, it is the life of many sons and many blessings, and in the future, we will have a few more grandchildren, and the palace will be lively. ”

Thinking of a string of children followed by Wang Ye and Chu Hanyan, Chen Afu was unkindly happy.

Chu Lingxuan said again, "After my father and grandfather finish explaining the affairs of the family, they will go to live in the countryside, and my father's main purpose is to pick up my mother and return the customs." Alas, my mother has been in the empty door for so many years, her temperament has changed, and she has a lot of resentment against my father, and my father may not be able to get his wish. When I'm busy, let's go and persuade my mother together......"

Chen Afu nodded, she also wanted to return the dust to the vulgar and give the old marquis a complete home. In a sense, they are all miserable people. One half of a life of loneliness, one half of a life of forbearance, if you can let go of the mustard, the second half of your life to comfort each other and keep warm, you will be happy. It's just that this good wish is not easy to achieve. Or rather, I don't know how much effort it will take to make it happen.

She thought that it was still her own Wang Niang who was transparent. Although she has a deep relationship with Chen Shiying, she can let go of that emotion that should not be there anymore and live a good life with Chen Ming. and the Jiang family is also transparent, and the husband who loves Chen Shiying has gone to himself and has no dignity. But she handled the relationship with Chen Afu and the Wang family very skillfully, which moved Chen Shiying and cherished her even more.

These two women have their misfortunes, but through their efforts and planning, they have lived a better and better life. Especially the Wang family, the first half of his life was full of suffering, but he gritted his teeth to support his seriously ill husband, stupid daughter, weak son and grandson, and life is getting better and better.

And Lichen, even if he leaves home, he has always been cared for by his mother and son. No matter how difficult it is for her, it is not as difficult as the Wang family. Character determines fate, Lichen may have lived too well in the past, or maybe she has too high requirements for feelings. In this way, not only her family suffers, but she also suffers......

On the evening of the eighteenth, Chu Lingqi suddenly came to the Hou Mansion. It turned out that after knowing that the second prince and his party were completely wiped out, Lichen insisted on moving back to Yingxue Nunnery, and Steward Luo moved back to Tangyuan with some of his subordinates.

He was extremely embarrassed and said, "...... Manager Luo and I were afraid that the eldest aunt would have any ideas, so we never dared to say anything about the victory of the counterinsurgency in front of her, and we didn't allow anyone to say it. Who knew that the day before yesterday, when the subordinates were quietly discussing, they were heard by the eldest aunt, and she ...... I'm sorry, I disappointed my uncle and eldest brother. ”

Now I am not afraid that the second prince Yu Xin or Rong Zhao will harm her, but her determination makes the old marquis and Chu Lingxuan's relaxed mood heavy again.

The old marquis's previous idea was that he and his father would go to Dingzhou Mansion together, persuade Luo to return to the world, and then live together in Tangyuan or Fuyuan in the countryside. It is picturesque, not far from the capital, not only keeping the promise of living in seclusion to the countryside, but also paying attention to the movements of the capital and giving advice to his younger brother and son......

Now, Luo has moved to Yingxue Nunnery, and he has to live in Fuyuan first, and then slowly figure it out.

Chu Lingxuan said, "Thank you, second brother, my father and I know that you have done your best." You are the closest to my mother, and my mother will have to trouble my second brother to protect me in the future. ”

Then, let people prepare wine and food, and Liuchu Lingqi drank wine in the mansion.

On the morning of April 20, he and the prince really sent someone to pick up the Chu family to go to the palace for dinner. said that he also invited the eldest princess Rong Jing, and Li Xuan, the son of King Rui, and the eldest princess Rong Jing was the original sixth princess Li Cheng.

Chen Afu is too busy to renovate An Rong Hall, and also to tidy up the courtyard vacated after the second room is moved. Although she doesn't have to do these things herself, she has to make up her mind, and occasionally she has to watch. The third lady was busy going west into the mansion of the Hou Mansion, and she didn't have time to go. Chu Lingxuan and a few other men were even busier, and Chu Lingwei and Chen Alu, who were in Xiumu, wanted to go out to meet friends, so they only let Chu Lingzhi take Chu Hanyan's sister and brother to go. Xiao Yu'er was too young, Chen Afu didn't worry about her going, so he asked people to take her outside the yard to play.

Xiao Yu'er is a big ghost, and I heard the little girl inadvertently say that my sister, brother, and uncle all went to the palace as guests, but I didn't go and quit. She asked the girl to lead her to Chen Afu, who was in Rong'an Hall, and cried, "I'm going to be a guest, Xiao Yu'er is going to be a guest." ”

Chen Afu said a basket of good words, but Xiao Yu'er still cried non-stop, and her little face turned red. This child is spoiled by her grandfather, and she is usually better than her sister and brother, and her sister and brother also let her. Chen Afu had long wanted to accept her temperament, so he said firmly, "No, Xiao Yu'er is at home with her mother." ”

Xiao Yu'er saw that she was crying like this, and her mother didn't let go, so she ran behind the big tree and sulked. Chen Afu didn't care about her, and talked to the people about how to arrange the room.

After a while, she suddenly heard the screams of the girl who took care of her from the yard, "What about the second sister, the slave maid just missed her eye, why did she disappear?"

The girls were frightened, and they looked around An Rongtang, but they didn't see Xiao Yu'er's shadow.

Chen Afu was also nervous, the child couldn't be lost in this mansion, for fear that she would fall into the lake or well if she didn't pay attention.

The girls and mothers-in-law hurried to find someone, focusing on the lake and places with wells.
