When Dabao came out of the bedroom, he saw his mother sitting on the Luohan bed with her head down and doing needlework, making clothes for him.

He came to Chen Afu, squeezed into her arms, and climbed on her lap and sat down. The little face was red from sleep, and the eyes were still a little swollen.

Chen Afu put down the needle and thread, pretended not to see that he had cried, and took him into his arms and shook him slowly. After a while, he felt that his little body was gradually softening, and then discussed, "Son, my mother has no choice, so I have to come to discuss with you, can you help my mother get an idea?" ”

Being gently shaken by his mother, Dabao felt very comfortable, a little like a small wooden horse sitting on a small stone. asked, "What's so difficult about my mother?" ”

Chen Afu said, "This time I went to the capital with your father, and I can't take you and my sister there." My mother knew that you were sensible, so I told you first, but I never dared to tell my sister, for fear that she would cry. How do I tell her? My mother is very embarrassed. ”

It's not that they can't take the little girl to the capital this time, but she and Chu Lingxuan thought that since they didn't take Dabao with them, it was best not to take Chu Hanyan with them, so that the two children would be treated equally. Otherwise, he said that he would be good to Dabao, but he would treat things differently, for fear that he would be too attentive and feel that his biological and adopted children were different.

Chen Dabao thought, don't go if you are embarrassed.

Even though he thought so, he was not stupid enough to say it, because he knew very well that it was impossible. The mother is going to marry Daddy Chu, and they are going to the capital to get married, which no one can change.

However, his mother can treat him as an adult, and he is a little proud to discuss such an important matter with him.

He straightened his small chest and said, "My sister is a girl, so it's inevitable to be squeamish." He said against his will, "Don't worry, my son will help my mother persuade my sister together." ”

Seeing that he was not right-mouthed, Chen Afu lowered his head and kissed his little face again, and praised, "Brother is different, he knows how to help his mother solve problems, and he also knows how to love his sister." ”

After Chu Hanyan woke up, Chen Afu went to the upper room with Chen Dabao and told her about it. Not surprisingly, as soon as they finished speaking, the little girl began to cry. Crying until I hiccuped, I didn't listen to explanations at all.

Seeing her react so violently, Chen Dabao was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and he couldn't care about his sadness, so he kept persuading his sister. persuaded and persuaded, even he himself thought that his mother and father Chu should not take them to the capital. But it was useless to persuade for a long time, and the little girl still cried and didn't repair.

Chen Afu reminded in a low voice, "After my mother comes back, what should my sister call my mother?" ”

Dabao reacted immediately, and his sister once told him that the thing she wanted to think about the most was to be able to call her mother mother. He immediately said to the little girl in a loud voice, "Sister, don't cry first, listen to my brother, when my mother comes back from the capital, you can call my mother a mother, not an aunt." ”

The little girl's crying stopped abruptly, and she stared at her teary eyes and asked, "Really?" When my aunt comes back, my sister will be able to call her mother? ”

Dabao nodded vigorously and said, "It's true, my brother doesn't lie to you, don't believe my mother." ”

The little girl is even more distressing.

Chen Afu wiped her tears and said, "It's true." When I come back, my sister will not only call me mother, but Dabao and I will also live in Tangyuan, and we will really become a family. ”

This is what her father often told her, and the little girl dreamed of it. She was not sad anymore, she laughed with tears in her eyes, pulled Chen Afu's shirt and said, "Sister and brother are obedient, aunt come back soon, sister really wants to call aunt and aunt soon." She can't wait for her aunt to go to the capital now and come back tomorrow.

Dabao wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, he really fulfilled his mission, and finally coaxed his sister well. Chen Afu gave him another thumbs up, and whispered, "Dabao is really capable, he grabbed his sister's weakness and persuaded his sister at once." ”

Oh, yes. Dabao also felt that he was very capable, but his mother was so embarrassed, but he did it, and unconsciously straightened his small chest.

Finally got the job done with the two little kids.

Seeing the two of them huddled together playing with toys, Chen Afu breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the big red boxes in the hall room, which contained the clothes and things she wanted to bring to the capital. Everything is ready, it's time to leave tomorrow.

In the evening, the abbot returned to the Tang Garden. She ate fast in Tangyuan by herself, so she asked someone to invite Chen Afu and bring Chu Hanyan back by the way. She was afraid that her granddaughter would be upset, so she would stay in Tangyuan for a few days.

She put a pair of emerald green and transparent jade bracelets on Chen Afu, and said with a smile, "This was given by Xuan'er's grandmother when the poor nun got married." Even if the poor nun became a monk, he didn't return it to the Chu family, thinking about giving it to Xuan'er's daughter-in-law in the future......"

Chen Afu bowed his knees and thanked him, and the two talked for a while before getting up to leave.

When I returned to Fuyuan, I saw Mrs. Chen, Gao's family, and Chen Aju all coming, and several of them came to add makeup to her. The old lady gave a pair of gold cloves, and on behalf of the big house, she gave ten taels of silver, Gao sent a pair of embroidered shoes with red silk surface, and Chen Aju gave two embroidered silk handkerchiefs.

Then Aunt Luo and Wei, Hu Lao Wu's daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Wu Carpenter's two daughters-in-law all came one after another, and they also came to add makeup.

The Luo family sent two horses of nine-silk soft smoke and a double-sided embroidered vignette. The Hu family sent ten taels of silver, two pieces of silk sent by the martial arts, and a pair of vermilion lacquer carved small ones.

Chen Afu is going to the capital tomorrow to be married, and only these families know, so they all came to add makeup.

Regardless of whether they could use the things they sent or not, Chen Afu appreciated it and expressed his gratitude.

At night, Da Baolai did not leave in the upper room, saying that he wanted to sleep with his mother for one night. This request was not excessive, and Chen Afu agreed.

It's just that being hugged tightly by the little kid makes her sweat hot, push him away, and he will stick to it again.

On the second day, Chen Afu handed over the big treasure that had been hanging on her body to the Wang family, got into the carriage, waved goodbye to Chen Ming, Wang, Ah Lu, and Dabao, who was crying profusely, and drove towards Dingzhou Mansion.

When I arrived at Dingzhou Mansion, I went straight to Chen's Mansion.

Chen Afu will stay in Chen's Mansion for a night, take a boat to Tongxian on the outskirts of Beijing early tomorrow morning, and then take a carriage into the capital.

She went directly to the main courtyard, and Jiang was very considerate to let people prepare all the meals. After she had eaten, Jiang told her that the furniture had been sent to the Beijing Courtyard a few days ago. The Jiang family will take Chen Yulan, Chen Yuqing, and Chen Yuxia to accompany Chen Afu to the Beijing Courtyard to get married, and Chen Shiying will not rush until Chen Afu gets married......

Before Chen Afu returned to the Rose Courtyard, the Jiang family handed over the dowry list to Chen Afu. Looking at the thick stack of dowry lists, Chen Afu slammed his tongue.
