Chu Lian blinked her big clear eyes, what's the matter, she is living well, why do you have to look at her like this, as if she is suffering something, how pitiful.
"Grandmother, elder brother, elder sister-in-law, second elder brother."
Chu Lian saluted one by one.
Mrs. He waved at her, "Lian'er, come and sit beside grandma."
ah? Chu Lian looked at the eldest brother and sister-in-law who were sitting under the old matriarch He, she was really embarrassed, so she walked to the old matriarch's side slowly, was pulled by the old matriarch's warm hand, and sat down on the couch.
Chu Lian glanced at Mrs. Zou, and saw that there was no jealous look on her face, so she was relieved.
The old matriarch stared at the flowery and jade-like second granddaughter-in-law beside her, and sighed in her heart.
Chu Lian's little hand was grabbed by the old matriarch, and then patted lightly by the old matriarch as if comforting, and it was even more strange to find that the eyes of the whole room were on his face.
She blinked, "Grandma, what's the matter?"
The old matriarch stroked her soft and smooth hair that was not fully brushed because she was in a hurry, sighed, and finally said: "Lian'er, grandma has something to tell you, first you promise grandma not to get angry."
Chu Lian smiled in her heart, as long as it didn't concern her own safety, there was really nothing in this Great Wu Dynasty that could make her angry.
Immediately, she became curious about what Old Madam He wanted to say to her, "Grandmother, tell me, granddaughter-in-law has a big belly, so she won't be angry."
The old lady didn't seem to believe it, she paused, and said apologetically: "Okay, my good boy. Grandma told you that Sanlang went to the northern border to join the army, and he left before dawn this morning."
Chu Lian was taken aback, never would have guessed that the old matriarch was talking about such a thing.
No, why
In the original book, He Changdi never thought of joining the army. It can be seen from the fact that he was born into a family of generals but never became an official. He... how could he join the army!
Why did everything seem to be messed up, He Sanlang didn't act according to the script at all.
If everyone in this room knew what Chu Lian was thinking now, they would definitely roll their eyes.
By the way, as He Sanlang's newlywed wife, isn't your focus a bit weird
Shouldn't you think about why a husband abandons his wife to join the army as soon as he is newly married
Chu Lian's face was blank for a moment, and he seemed at a loss.
The old lady felt even more distressed when she saw it, "Don't be sad, child, there are big brothers, sisters-in-law, second brothers and grandmothers at home!"
Chu Lian looked a little dazed, looking very much like a lizard, but only she knew what she was thinking in her heart.
Chu Lian secretly resented He Changdi in his heart.
It seems that this guy couldn't pull back eight horses and wanted to be separated from her. After eating the things she made, he just patted his ass and left! He has a good face, but why is he so annoying, she wants to see what flowers he can make when he goes to the northern border.
Since the two of them can't even be friends, why don't they do anything at all!
She didn't have to have him.
It's easy to leave, she has no one to intervene or fight against him in Jing'an Bo's mansion, so her life is more comfortable!
Chu Lian quickly thought about it. If the original book didn't describe He Changdi's character so well, she wouldn't have expected much from him. Now that her expectation has long since come to nothing, she has no idea about He Sanlang, so how could she be sad.
Chu Lian smiled, "Grandmother, I know that I will live a good life without my husband."
Chu Lian's sincere smile turned into a wry smile in the eyes of everyone, even Erlang He Changjue, who was not very good at talking, persuaded him: "Sisters and sisters, don't be sad, I work in Zuowuwei, and once I have a third brother If there is any news, I will bring it to my younger siblings."
So Chu Lian spent the morning in the comfort of the family, the old matriarch even specially rewarded her with a set of gold inlaid jade headdress to appease Chu Lian.
Look at the texture of the face, no less than a thousand taels.
Chu Lian returned to Songtao Garden from Qingwei Hall with a lot of rewards in his hands.
As soon as Nanny Gui came in, she was shocked when she saw the pile of boxes that Xiyan Fuyan was holding.
"What's wrong?"
Xiyan and Fuyan were obviously not as indifferent as Chu Lian, both of them looked listless, Xiyan replied, "The old grandma gave it to our third grandma."
"Huh? What's the reward for the year?" These boxes look unusual, so you don't have to think about what's inside.
Although the conditions in the Jing'anbo Mansion are much better than those of the British Duke's Mansion, it is not so casual to reward the younger generation with things, especially expensive ornaments.
Xi Yan glanced at Chu Lian, and seeing that Chu Lian was expressionless, she told Nanny Gui the news that He Sanlang was going to the north before dawn.
Nanny Gui's eyes widened and she said in surprise, "What! The third young master is gone?"
Chu Lian glanced at the few people around him lightly, "Put your things away, I'm a little tired, go to sleep for a while."
Nanny Gui looked at Chu Lian's figure wrapped in a dress. In the midsummer, there were not many clothes to wear. Chu Lian got up today and rushed to Qingyu Hall, only hastily chose a light-colored skirt, and now it was blown by the draft. Attached to the body, it looks even thinner and thinner.
When Nanny Gui thought that Miss Six had only been married for a few days, it was fine for her husband to be inconsiderate, but she just threw away her wife and joined the army! And she didn't even say hello, she still got the news from the old lady.
Miss Six must be suffering in her heart.
Thinking about it, Nanny Gui couldn't help shedding tears.
The big maidservants who served by her side also had their faces downcast.
Seeing the gloomy atmosphere in the flower hall, Nanny Gui hurriedly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and said in a low voice, "What are you doing with such a mournful face? Your grandma is well! We're gone, we should go to work, and the third young master is going to work again." It’s not that he won’t come back, this is his home, and he has to worry about it wherever he goes.”
The big maids and the little maids all dispersed in a hurry.
Nanny Gui knew that the situation was not as good as she said.
Where is the northern border? The third young master went to the northern border to join the army. Once he joined the frontier army, if he didn't make extraordinary achievements, he would have to stay for five years!
Five years!
The third grandma is fifteen this year, and she will be sixteen during the Chinese New Year. If the third young master really wants to stay at the border for five years, the third grandma will be in her early twenties.
Five years of empty boudoir, how can you keep it! These are the best five years of a woman's life.
How could the third young master treat the sixth young lady like this.
Chu Lian didn't think as much as Nanny Gui, this guy is greedy for coolness, and now he is wearing a light yellow pocket and white obscene pants, lying on a spacious bed with his legs crossed, holding a round fan in one hand Fanning lightly to enjoy the cool air, holding a book of Chinese stories in one hand, reading it very comfortably.
Seeing the excitement, I even forgot to fan it.
A small mouth still whispers from time to time.
"I didn't expect this ancient man to have such a rich imagination, and he could even write a female statue! Tsk tsk... It's a pity that it doesn't involve a man giving birth to a child."
