Whether it's the storm in the Shen family in Huaicheng or the turmoil between the Duke's Mansion and the Queen Mother in Jingcheng.
None of them can affect the lives of everyone in the Lao Bai family.
Originally, the female family members of the Bai family planned to go back the next day after attending Mrs. Zhou's birthday. But Mrs. Zhou's enthusiastic efforts to persuade her stayed there for three more days. Three days later, regardless of the Zhou family's continued efforts to stay, the Bai family's female family members would take Xiao Fuyuan back to Shenshu Village.
During the past few days, Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Zhen were not only worried about the white-boarded father and son at home, but also worried that Qiuniang had to take care of a second-bedroom son and be busy with housework and masks. Therefore, they had no time to wander around Huaicheng, so they Let Bai Sanzhuang hitch the carriage back to Shenshu Village.
Xiao Fuyuan said she didn't want to go back so early. She had only stayed at Zhou's house in Huaicheng since she came to Huaicheng. She really wanted to go shopping in Huaicheng. After all, it was a Fucheng city. It would be a pity not to go shopping even though she was here.
"Your father and eldest brother must miss you very much. The wheat and millet crops at home are about to be harvested. Besides, there is not much to see in Huaicheng. Your third brother has bought all the food and entertainment you want. Let's go here Go home." Zhen declined Xiao Fuyuan's request gently but forcefully.
Xiao Fuyuan bit her lip and looked at Old Mrs. Bai, but Old Mrs. Bai said the same thing as Mrs. Zhen.
Xiao Fuyuan looked at his eldest sister-in-law. The eldest sister-in-law who was now in charge of the family had an extraordinary status in the family, so what she said would definitely work.
Although Sister-in-law Bai can't stand her sister-in-law's watery longing eyes, she respects her elders in everything. In Sister-in-law's mind, since both her mother-in-law and mother-in-law don't agree with visiting Huaicheng, there is naturally a reason not to go shopping.
Besides, the Shen family is eyeing my sister-in-law, so there is no need to visit Huaicheng.
"Sister, it's too hot. This time I will listen to my mother. Let's go home first and come to Huaicheng when we have the opportunity." Xie Chuntao coaxed little Fuyuan in a soft voice.
"Sister, when your third brother and I complete our business in Huaicheng, you can come and visit at any time." Sister-in-law Tian Maimiao stood in line.
Xiao Fuyuan thought for a while and could only nod.
"Grandma, mother, since my sister wants to go shopping, let's go shopping for a day and then go back without delaying anything."
Eugene Gui spoke at this time.
Once she saw through Xiao Fuyuan's desire to go shopping, she would never let go of this opportunity to please her sister-in-law. Especially when Xie Chuntao and Tian Maimiao were against her sister-in-law, she had to show that she and her sister-in-law were of the same mind. Secondly, she had long wanted to go shopping in Huaicheng, and this time she finally came. She felt unhappy if she didn't go shopping. She didn't want to go back so early to take Xiao Lang with her.
"What are you afraid of? My sister is blessed." Eugene Gui smiled flatteringly at Xiao Fuyuan.
Mrs. Bai looked at Eugene Gui with a half-smile and said: "Second daughter-in-law, do you want to go shopping, or does your sister-in-law want to go shopping? Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? If you want to go shopping, you can go shopping in Huaicheng by yourself. , it’s best to stay in Huaicheng and not go anywhere else.”
Eugene Gui did not dare to say a word, feeling extremely aggrieved.
She wanted to go shopping, but she had no money!
After packing their luggage, the Bai family boarded the carriage with Feng Zhiheng's tearful eyes and Zhou's reluctance.
As soon as I left the gate of Huaicheng, I heard someone calling "Sister Yuan Bao."
This voice is very familiar to the Bai family. It is Liu Shu, the son of the county magistrate Liu Hong.
Da da da da, the magistrate's carriage arrived and kept pace with the Bai family's carriage.
Xiao Fuyuan saw that there were only the county magistrate's wife and Liu Shu on the carriage, but no magistrate.
"Aunt Bai, Sister-in-law Bai." Mrs. Xu opened the curtain and took the initiative to say hello, very enthusiastically.
"Hello, madam." Zhen responded politely.
Because Xu informed the Bai family about the prefect's wife's plan, everyone in the Bai family let go of their prejudices against Xu.
"Sister Yuan Bao, do you want to come and take a ride in my carriage?" Liu Shu invited her enthusiastically.
Ever since he fought against the prefect's son with the Bai family's children in Zhoujiayuan, Liu Shu felt that he had joined Xiao Fuyuan's circle and belonged to his own people.
Therefore, he was not as cautious when speaking to Xiao Fuyuan.
"You kid, what are you talking about? Look at how Xiao Yuanbao's carriage is worse than ours." Before Xiao Fuyuan could speak, Mrs. Xu gave Liu Shu a slap in the face.
Now Mrs. Xu is very afraid that the old Bai family will misunderstand her plan for Xiao Fuyuan.
Now, she wouldn't even dare to lend her ten courages. She felt that her son was right, whoever goes against Xiao Fuyuan would be unlucky. She recalled carefully that at the Lotus Festival last year, she proposed that Xiao Fuyuan be his son's concubine. Not only was she scolded by Liu Hong, but she also caught a cold when she returned.
This is the result of going against Xiao Fuyuan!
Coupled with the unlucky prefect's family now, Mrs. Xu was even more in awe of Xiao Fuyuan.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu. Madam said with a smile. It's not that she dislikes the carriage. The main reason is that my daughter needs someone to hold her for a nap at noon. I don't dare to disturb Madam and Mr. Zhen." Madam Zhen said with a smile.
Mrs. Xu realized Mrs. Zhen's kindness, thought about it, and said directly: "Sister-in-law Bai, it was me who was so confused and confused in the past that I did such things that I did to Xiao Yuan Bao. I will never do anything to Xiao Yuan Bao again in the future. Bao Bao has no idea. I wonder how much good fortune awaits Little Yuan Bao in the future. My Shu'er really doesn't deserve it."
Liu Shu: "."
Heartbroken.
Although Xu's words were a bit out of tune, the Bai family was relieved after hearing them.
"Aunt Bai, Sister-in-law Bai, you don't know yet, right? I heard from my family that the prefect is in jail awaiting trial, and that the Shen family was deprived of the imperial business yesterday." Mrs. Xu told the news she heard Revealed to the Bai family, "You deserve it! Magistrate Guo has brought chaos to our Huaicheng officialdom. I heard that he took the credit for the swallow and millet seeds your family donated as his own. And his mother-in-law, who doesn't know that the Shen family My son has tuberculosis, so he has to push Xiao Yuanbao into the pit of fire, and now he has entered the pit of fire."
Mrs. Xu was frightened as she spoke, but luckily she stepped back from the cliff in time and did not continue to take advantage of Xiao Fuyuan.
Otherwise, their family will be the unlucky one.
The female members of the Bai family didn't show it on their faces, but they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
In this way, there is no need to worry about Xiao Fuyuan being plotted by the Shen family and the prefect.
The magistrate was definitely going to be fucked off, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
"That's what it's called. Stealing the chicken but losing the rice, they deserve the misfortune." Yu Jingui said in cooperation with Xu.
"No!" Ms. Xu felt that what the second daughter-in-law of the Bai family said was right.
Mrs. Xu was happy. Her husband was now left in Huaicheng to handle the affairs of the city on behalf of the prefect. Although the official letter of acceptance had not yet been issued, everyone knew that the vacancy of the prefect of Huaicheng was about to fall on Liu Hong.
Now she is the county magistrate's wife, and soon she will be the prefect's wife.
Xu attributed all the cause and effect to Xiao Fuyuan.
He also swore that he would take the example of the prefect's wife, Mrs. Gao, and must put away his former arrogance in the future, and would never do stupid things like using power to overwhelm others.
"My master said that Shu'er will be sent to the Zhou family to study in a while, and he will be with Erlang." Xu said happily.
Mrs. Xu is now eager to make friends with the Bai family.
Mrs. Zhen and Mrs. Bai looked at each other, fearing that Liu Hong would no longer be the official of Yangfeng County.
"younger sister!"
Wu Xiaoying drove a carriage from a distance, and Xiao Fuyuan saw A Zhen sticking his head out of the carriage and smiling happily at her.
