53. Chapter 53
Wu Yi held a bowl of mung bean porridge made by herself, standing outside the door against the scorching sun.
Chai Mu was chanting the scriptures inside. When she finished reading a roll and rested, Wu Yi came in with porridge.
Wu Yi said with a smile: "The old princess hurry up and drink some mung bean porridge to remove the fire, it's really hot outside today." You are most afraid of heat, so eat something cool. β
Chai Mu nodded with a light smile and picked up the porridge with great dignity. After a few bites, she asked, "Did you make it?" "It's not quite the same as what the kitchen used to make for her.
Although it is the same bowl of simple mung bean porridge, there will still be some differences because of the different amounts of seasoning.
Wu Yi nodded, "Does the old princess like it?" If you like it, the concubine will make it for you next time. β
"Nope." Chai Mu wiped her mouth with a silk handkerchief, "You take good care of Ah Shen is filial piety to me." β
Ah Shen is the name of the concubine of King Ke born to Wu Yi, which was taken by Chai's mother. I don't know if she deliberately took this word to beat Wu Yi not to have two hearts, or if she picked it at random.
"Ah Shen, I naturally have to take care of it, but as a junior, taking care of the elders is also a matter of responsibility." Wu Yi said with some loss, "Old princess...... Mo is not disgusted with the concubine's low status. β
Although she knew that Wu Yi was currying favor with herself, Chai Mu still affirmed her practice of reciprocating with practical actions - this is much better than Liu Chengfang who said about it.
"My own family background is not very good, so why dislike it?" Chai Mu comforted, "After you give birth, don't think so much." β
Wu Yi nodded, and cleaned up the rest of Chai's mother's food, "Then the concubine won't disturb the old princess." β
Mama stopped her, "These old slaves are here." β
Wu Yi avoided Mama, "Mama is serving the old princess, I can still do such a trivial matter." With that, he smiled at Chai Mu and went out with the dishes and chopsticks.
Mama looked at Chai Mu, "Master......"
Chai Mu sighed lightly and shook her head, "It's much better than Chengfang." β
Chai Jin had just gotten off the court, and as soon as he got home, he came to greet Chai's mother, "Mother, are you okay today?" β
"Okay." Chai Mu said, "Aunt Wu also sent me cold porridge to relieve my anger." β
Chai Jin's expression was a little unnatural, "She's really, knowing that you are old and can't be greedy, how can you send these over." I'll go back and talk about her. β
Chai Mu pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't pretend in front of me, who doesn't know your careful thoughts." Even if you praise her a few words from me, who else in my house will go to the main room to sue Princess SΓΉ? β
She let out a long breath, "Look...... Do you want it, flat wife? β
Chai Jin was stunned for a moment, "Flat wife? β
Chai Mu nodded. She has promised Liu Chengfang that no one will take away her position as the concubine, and her child will also be the prince of King Ke. But Wu Yi's kindness to herself really made her, an old woman who was used to being lonely on weekdays, happy.
Since the concubine can't be the king of Ke, why shouldn't she give Wu Yi a little honor? I will definitely die in front of her, and I can't take care of the rest of the matter. But according to Liu Chengfang's temperament, if Chai Jin walks ahead of her and her son inherits the title, then Wu Yi's mother and son are afraid that they will be extremely unhappy. Now there is still self-pressing, waiting for himself to leave? Will Liu Chengfang play some small tricks in the back house again?
Chai Mu didn't want to see King Ke's Mansion fall apart in the future, and what she did was to try her best to avoid this day. Give Wu Yi enough power to fight against Liu Chengfang, so that even if the eldest son inherits the title, it will not cause too much harm to Wu Yi's mother and son.
Actually, it is said that she is a flat wife, but in the end she is still so much worse than the concubine. It's not really an equal slate. Liu Chengfang's family background is there, and Wu Yi is not qualified to compare with her.
Chai Mu looked at Chai Jin expectantly, she knew that after she proposed it, Chai Jin would figure out the joints.
Chai Jin thought about it for a long time, and finally hesitated: "I'll think about it later." β
Chai Mu nodded, "I just mentioned it like that, you may not have to follow my thoughts." Just do what you want. β
Chai Jin said "um", and then went back to the study.
Since Wu Yi officially had a place in King Ke's Mansion, Liu Chengfang had a cold war with Chai Jin, and the two even split the room. Liu Chengfang also became more and more resentful of her mother-in-law. The morning please An is also angry. Although she knew that this was not right, Liu Chengfang couldn't restrain herself.
Her life seems to be repeating the life of her biological mother Xie.
How Xie died, Liu Chengfang remembered it deeply, she was wary of not going down the same path as her mother, but it seemed that everything was doomed.
However, Chai Jin is still different from Liu Yuanzheng. Since separating from Liu Chengfang, Chai Jin has been resting in the study. Liu Chengfang seems to have a cold war with Chai Jin on the surface, but in private, he will still send people to pay attention to Chai Jin's movements from time to time. But whenever Chai Jin went to Wu Yi's room, Liu Chengfang would know.
So for Chai Jin's current state, Liu Chengfang is still satisfied. She was just waiting, waiting for Chai Jin to bow his head with herself. In Liu Chengfang's opinion, this matter was originally done by Chai Jin, and he would never apologize to Chai Jin first. Although they did not agree with each other in advance, Liu Chengfang felt that Chai Jin already had a bottom in his heart when he married him.
Since they want to achieve their goals, they have to make some sacrifices. But now Chai Jin has broken this harmonious situation without authorization.
Liu Chengfang's dowry, and Ai Ai approached Princess Ke who was doing embroidery. She looked at Liu Chengfang, who had a breezy face and carefully embroidered children's soft shoes, and her heart beat a drum.
"Tell me something." Liu Chengfang put the embroidery needle β‘β‘ the fabric and put it in the sewing box, and looked up at the grandmother.
Mama lowered her head, not daring to look at Liu Chengfang. His mouth trembled and said, "The king, the princess ......"
"Huh?" Liu Chengfang has been in a bad mood recently, and her patience is almost exhausted at the moment, "If there is anything, just say it quickly!" What do you look like, waiting to eat the board? β
Mama hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, "Princess, the old princess was just discussing with the prince, saying that she was going to carry Aunt Wu to be a flat wife." β
"Ping-wife?" Liu Chengfang's face turned hideous in an instant, she swept all the things in her hand to the ground, and glared viciously at the dowry who was kneeling on the ground and trembling like chaff, "That old woman actually said that she wanted to raise that slut as a flat wife?!" What is she? Dare to be my equal?! β
With a "bang", a set of Ruyao tea sets on the table was thrown to the ground by Liu Chengfang.
"Princess, princess is angry." The people in the room didn't dare to really get close to the crazy Liu Chengfang, so they only knelt down together and talked.
Liu Chengfang still had a dignified appearance in front of people at this time, her hair was scattered, and her clothes were extremely messy due to big movements. Her eyes widened, and she panted as she picked up a pastel vase and threw it on the ground.
The neat floor of the main house had been covered with broken porcelain pieces, and some of the broken porcelain pieces that had smashed to the ground and flew up scraped the faces of the people below, marking the faces of the people below, but they did not dare to say a word, only knelt tremblingly.
The movement in the main room was so loud that even Chai Jin could hear it. He frowned and came to the main room, and what caught his eye was Liu Chengfang in a state of rage.
"Youβyou still have the face!" Liu Chengfang looked around left and right, and found that everything that could be smashed was almost smashed by herself. She didn't know where the strength came from, so she lifted the blue and white embroidery pier with both hands and smashed it on Chai Jin's body.
Chai Jin dodged, walked in front of Liu Chengfang in a few big steps, held her hand tightly, and roared angrily: "Have you made enough trouble!" β
Liu Chengfang struggled to shake off Chai Jin's shackles, "I'm making trouble? You even have the face to say that I'm making trouble?! She pointed in the direction of the courtyard where Wu Yi lived, "If it weren't for that little who entered the mansion first and called me faceless in front of everyone, I would be like this?" Do you know that I don't even dare to go out of the palace now! Do you know how the whole capital laughs at me now? It's all thanks to your heart! β
She pushed Chai Jin away violently, reached out to grab the largest piece of broken porcelain in sight, picked it up and threw herself on Chai Jin.
Chai Jin is a person who has practiced martial arts, and his strength is much greater than that of Liu Chengfang. just thought of the husband and wife relationship between the Liu family and Liu Chengfang, so he didn't use any force, he could only stop Liu Chengfang.
Liu Chengfang's hand holding the porcelain piece had been cut by the sharp edge, and the bright red blood was spreading down from her hand, soaking through her clothes, and it was shocking to watch.
"Chengfang, put it down!"
"Flat wife? You even want to raise that slut as a flat wife? Chai Jin, what's going on in your head?! If you really carry that woman as an equal wife, I will immediately break off with you! No other words! β
"Enough!" Chai Jin really couldn't stand Liu Chengfang's madness, so he pushed her hard.
It was the first time for the people to see the two masters making trouble like this, and they were all stunned. Someone boldly raised his head, "Ah! β
Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, and they all stopped breathing.
Liu Chengfang didn't feel any pain, but only reached out to wipe it when there was liquid left on his forehead to cover his vision.
Chai Jin looked at Liu Chengfang, who had a bloody face, and hurriedly said, "Go and call the doctor." β
Liu Chengfang looked at the blood in his hand and nodded slowly, "Okay, Chai Jin, hello, hello ......"
"Chengfang, I didn't mean to." Chai Jin wanted to get closer to see the wound on Liu Chengfang's forehead, but was dodged.
"Get out."
Chai Jin looked at Liu Chengfang in a daze, as if he didn't know this woman who got along with him day and night.
"Get out of here!" Liu Chengfang pushed Chai Jin, who was unprepared for a while, to the ground and looked at him condescendingly, "Blasting the prince out for me, I don't want to see him." β
Look at this, look at that, both of them are masters, and they can't afford to offend.
Chai Jin got up from the ground with his eyes down, clenched his hands into fists, and left without saying a word.
"Get me a car. I'm going back to Liu's house. Liu Chengfang took the towel in the hand of the subordinate and covered the wound on his forehead.
The dowry cautiously asked, "The doctor?" β
Liu Chengfang glanced at her and sneered, "Isn't there a doctor in the Liu family?" With that, he lifted his skirt and went out of the main room.
