Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Chu Haochen arrived at the Zhenguo General's Mansion early in the morning.

When Mr. Lu and Lu Jiang in the front hall saw Chu Haochen coming, their expressions were not very good. They were still angry about the previous marriage decree.

"Hmph! What are you doing this time?"

Mr. Lu didn't give him any face at all, and snorted at him. Lu Jiang on the side also rolled his eyes repeatedly, not even bothering to give him a straight look.

Chu Haochen stood up and raised his hands to salute Mr. Lu and Lu Jiang and his son who walked into the front hall: "I have seen the old general and the Marquis Changping."

"Hmph! If you have something to say, tell me quickly. I don't have time to nag with you."

After saying that, Mr. Lu and his son sat down, looked at Chu Haochen next to them and snorted coldly.

The maid came in with hot tea at this time, put it down one by one, then leaned over and exited the room.

With a smile on his face, Chu Haochen first apologized to Mr. Lu and his son. He had asked the emperor for the imperial edict early in the morning, but Qing'er didn't take it out because he didn't agree.

This time I took it out as a last resort.

In fact, Mr. Lu was not really angry, but they had been kept in the dark about this matter before it happened, and they felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Okay! I also know that the situation was unavoidable. If you hadn't come up with the edict in time, I would..."

"Hmph! Smooth talk." Lu Jiang had always been a little unhappy with Chu Haochen. Seeing that his father was convinced so quickly, he muttered displeasedly.

Chu Haochen once again bowed his hands towards the two of them and said that he came this time for this imperial edict. It is not suitable to marry Qing'er during the national mourning period, so the time may have to be postponed for a while.

"But please rest assured, the old general and Marquis Changping, there will no longer be any other women in Prince Chen's palace except Qing'er from now on."

Hearing Chu Haochen's words, Mr. Lu raised his eyebrows, then put down the teacup in his hand, stroking his beard and laughed: "Hahaha... OK, OK, I saw the right person."

"Hey! Don't just talk. If you say you can't do it, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Lu Jiang sneered coldly from the side and shot his cold eyes at Chu Haochen.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely keep my promise to Qing'er." Chu Haochen raised a deep arc on his lips and assured him.

The three of them chatted in the front yard for a long time before Chu Haochen left. He still had a mission assigned by the emperor and couldn't stay long, so he took advantage of his free time this time.

By the time Lu Qingqing heard the news, Chu Haochen had already left the Zhenguo General's Mansion.

"Master, King Chen has left. I heard from the maid in the front yard that this time King Chen seemed to have talked with the old lady and the master about his marriage to the master."

Xia Yun approached Lu Qingqing and said gossiping.

She leaned on the beauty's couch and squinted her eyes slightly, bathing in the sunlight that poured in from the window. It felt warm and comfortable on her body and made her not want to get up.

When she heard Xia Yun's words, the corners of her lips curled up.

"Do you know what grandfather and father said?"

Xia Yun shook his head lightly, shrugged and said that the maid didn't dare to stay longer, put down the tea cup and left.

Lu Qingqing's face was calm at this time, but she was thinking in her heart. During the national mourning period, princes and ministers with titles would not be allowed to marry for a year, so she...

"Xia Yun, master, I want to go back to Taoyuan Town for a while. You guys..."

"Master, you can't leave this slave behind this time. This slave will follow wherever the master goes."

Before Lu Qingqing finished speaking, she saw Xia Yun's boss with wide eyes, pulling her sleeves and speaking anxiously.

"Pfft!" Lu Qingqing burst out laughing. She looked at Xia Yun's anxious expression with amusement, and then said softly, "How can I say I won't take them with me? It's true!"

Xia Yun felt relieved after hearing her master's words, and then asked her master how long he planned to stay this time. As she said this, she looked at her master's belly and hesitated, not knowing whether she should say anything.

"What can I say? When did you become hesitant?" She threw a grape into her mouth and glanced at Xia Yun next to her.

"Master, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide this for a long time." Xia Yun expressed the worries in his heart.

Lu Qingqing put her hand on her belly, a look of worry flashed in her eyes, and then she said firmly that it was because of this little thing that she decided to return to Taoyuan Town this time.

The next time I return to the capital will probably be a year later...

The capital has now been reshuffled, and the emperor now only has King Rui, King Yi, and a fourth prince who often travels around.

The capital has been peaceful for a while recently, and with her grandfather in charge, she can feel more at ease when she leaves.

"Xia Yun, tell Ziyue and the others later and ask them to prepare in advance."

She told Xia Yun beside her that she had to have a good chat with her grandmother and the others before leaving this time, and that she should also prepare more fetal medicine for Concubine De and health pills for her grandmother and grandmother.

It will take a little longer to leave this time...

"Then master and maidservant, go and explain to them, let them prepare in advance, and the old lady..."

Lu Qingqing didn't think about what to say, so she waved to Xia Yun and asked her to go first.

Xia Yun leaned over and exited the room. She stared out the window in a daze. She didn't know if she wanted Chu Haochen to tell her about this matter, but what would happen if he told her at this time? He was busy these days and no one could be seen.

After the palace change, the emperor felt that there were not many people he could trust.

The emperor cannot be dissatisfied with him because of these private matters.

After thinking about this, Lu Qingqing made up her mind to persuade her grandmother to let her return to Taoyuan Town for a while, and then give birth to the baby smoothly.

She slowly stood up and walked towards the door, thinking about what to say to her grandmother as she walked.

Little did she know that her grandmother and grandmother were chatting at this time about the marriage decree that Chu Haochen had just talked about. It would be one year from now. They didn't know if Qing'er would hear it...

"The eldest lady is here, the old lady and the old man are inside." Nanny Qi's voice reached the ears of the two elders in the room.

They put down their teacups and looked at each other. Mr. Lu comforted his wife and asked her tentatively later.

"Grandpa, grandma, Qingqing is here."

As she said this, Lu Qingqing, who was wearing a light blue Sichuan brocade pleated skirt, walked in and shouted into the room with a smile on her face.

"Qingqing, come in and sit down." Mrs. Lu waved to her, and then ordered Hongxiu next to her to serve some refreshments.

Hong Xiu leaned over and exited the room with a smile. Lu Qingqing walked to her grandmother and sat down.

"Why are you here at Grandma's Courtyard at this time?" Old Mrs. Lu asked with a loving look on her face, while Mr. Lu next to her stroked his beard and smiled.

She looked at her grandparents and her grandparents, and then said tentatively that during this period, the eldest brother was getting married, and what happened in the palace had made people panic. Fortunately, it had calmed down a bit in the past two days, and she wanted to go back to Taoyuan Town. Walk.
