After taking a hot bath, Xu Wanzhen changed into a dress that had been prepared on the side, presumably brought by a mute woman for her.

Holding her underwear and other underwear, Xu Wanzhen said, "I want to wash it myself." He frowned and said disgustedly: "It's too dirty." ”

What she meant was obvious, it was that the place was too dirty. It's just the outer clothes, and her underwear won't be taken out to wash.

The mute woman nodded, and brought her a basin of hot water.

Xu Wanzhen put the clothes in the basin and carefully scrubbed the belly pocket and underwear where the golden beans were hidden. He tentatively asked, "Where are you from?" Northerners, or Southerners? ”

The mute woman didn't speak, but still had the same blank expression.

Xu Wanzhen was not annoyed, and said to herself: "I am from the south, and my family lives in Suzhou. It was because my father had an accident in Beijing that our family came to Beijing. Otherwise, I would still be in Suzhou at this time. ”

"And then I never went back. Later, he got married, and now he is locked up. I don't know if I will go back one day. ”

Xu Wanzhen said as she looked at her expression. Seeing that although her expression remained unchanged, she was also listening carefully to what she said.

"I have a maid, she is not from Suzhou, she is originally from Lingnan Road, and she was sold. A little younger than me, we're sisters. ”

Xu Wanzhen was talking nonsense. Here, due to the constant traffic and poor information, she attaches more importance to the relationship between her fellow villagers and clans than in her previous life.

She just said casually, as long as she wanted to listen. Someday, she will guess her hometown.

……

The seventh day of November, dusk.

The convoy of the Chung Kook Mansion entered the city in the afterglow of the setting sun, and drove to the second gate of the Chung Kook Mansion, and everyone got out of the carriage.

Lu's expression was a little tired and a little happy.

She was scared for a few days and didn't hear any bad news. Could it be that this time the mother-in-law really has no other plans, purely to pray for the blessing of the practice?

However, it is naturally best that nothing happens.

After seven or eight busy days, Rao is young body can't stand it, and she feels helpless and weak.

Fortunately, for the sake of the Fa meeting, Wu Sheng took leave yesterday and went to the Great Compassion Temple, and today it was his turn to rest. I can see my husband for two days in a row, except for the New Year, I haven't had it after marriage.

Thinking that he was going back to the house in the evening, Lu's face was shy, looking forward to the nightfall.

Chen and Wu Lie walked in front, Lu led Wu Chao to walk behind, and the accompanying monks sent Guanyin Bodhisattva to the Buddha hall respectfully and chanted the scriptures.

After the ceremony was completed, Lu had the offering silver given to the monks who took the lead and sent them away.

It's here, but as the head of the house, she hasn't returned home for three days, and there are still many things waiting for her. After accusing herself, she went down and arranged not to mention them one by one.

Since today, the Chen family has officially settled in the Buddhist hall.

Wu Lie originally thought that she would be unwilling, but he didn't expect Chen's mentality to be extremely peaceful. even offered to offer that in the future, as long as Mama Tian and Mama Liu were by her side, she would be able to serve them.

In this way, it can appear that there is a sincere desire to serve the Buddha.

Wu Lie naturally didn't do it, no matter what, she still has the name of the Duchess of the Kingdom, too hard, doesn't it seem that he is too ruthless as a husband.

This little thing, Chen originally took it out and talked about it casually. She really knew Wu Lie too well, and the more she was like this, the less he would treat her badly.

After chatting a few words, Wu Lie felt that the Chen family looked much more pleasing to the eye now.

If only she had figured it out! You don't have to live in the Buddha hall, the family is harmonious and beautiful, and it is fun to tease your grandson.

After chatting about something else, Chen inadvertently asked, "Huh?" When I came back this time, why didn't I see Brother Xiang's daughter-in-law? ”

Wu Lie also had a puzzled expression, and he already felt a little unhappy if Xu Wanzhen didn't go. At this time, her in-laws came back, and as a daughter-in-law, she didn't come out to greet her, which was really a bit unusual.

"Send someone to ask." Chen said: "Don't have any diseases, young people just don't know how to take care of their bodies." ”

She looked anxious, looking like a loving mother-in-law worried about her daughter-in-law.

"Okay." Hearing her say this, Wu Lie also felt that Xu Wanzhen would not be absent for no reason, and there must be some reason for it.

After only two quarters of an hour, the person who was sent to ask the question went back and forth, "If you return to the grandfather and wife, the second young lady was taken into the palace by the queen mother to accompany you." ”

"What?" Chen asked in surprise.

Wu Lie glanced at her, and she realized that her reaction was inappropriate.

"It's me who is too nervous." She smiled with a disguised smile: "Why is it so coincidental, I just entered the palace at this time." ”

Wu Lie also went out of the city to the Great Compassion Temple yesterday, and now he has only come back together, and he doesn't know the Queen Mother's decree. said: "The Queen Mother likes her, she must have missed her, it's nothing." ”

Hearing this news that surprised her greatly, at this moment, Chen no longer had the patience to be with him, so he hurriedly said a few perfunctory words, and said, "I'm tired and want to rest early." ”

After Wu Lie left, she was calmly served by Chunshan to freshen up. If it weren't for Mama Arita watching from the sidelines, she would have been furious.

Even if it is built in the Zhongguo Mansion and served by slaves, the Buddha Hall is a Buddha Hall after all.

None of the tools can be compared with those in Chen's main courtyard.

The copper basin was replaced with a wooden basin, the mahogany furniture became cypress, and the silk yarn soft tent became a mango tent. Bright clothes, expensive jewelry, etc., were put away.

Not to mention the furnishings in the house, just a table, a chair and a bed. The only decoration is that a high table is placed in the corner of the wall, and a few tuberoses are inserted in the large round belly vase on it.

Although it is definitely much better than practicing in the Great Compassion Temple, it can be described as different from her furnishings in the main courtyard. On this kind of day, the Chen family is also a hundred times stronger than here in the boudoir.

Looking around, the more she looked, the more depressed she became.

paid such a big price, and still had a false and false social exchange with Xu Wan. Isn't it that she didn't end well?

But what does this news mean today? She was accepted into the palace by the Queen Mother?

Whether this incident is true or not, whether Xu Wanzhen has an accident or not. These kinds of speculation were tumbling in her mind, and it was difficult for her to sleep.

Chen's mind kept thinking about what the man had told her.

"Madame, rest assured. Lei Ba has coveted the beauty of the second young lady for a long time, and he will not let her go easily. ”

Chen didn't know what the other party would do to kidnap Xu Wanzhen, and she didn't care. She just wants to know if Xu Wanzhen, a scheming woman, will end up miserable in the end.

"And then?" How can only Lei Ba be enough, the Chen family wants to see that Xu Wan is really better than dead.

The man said: "Her identity is not visible. After the master's goal is achieved, and Lei Ba is tired of playing, she will only have a dead end. ”

Although Chen was not satisfied with this answer, he reluctantly agreed.
