After being divorced, the concubine became the first lady

Chapter 31

Regardless of their relationship, with their status as Xu Wenda and Wang Ruoyun, especially the latter, the imperial concubine's biological sister, even the palace must treat them seriously.

Chu Zijian, the head of the Chu family, is unconscious. The old man is seriously ill, and the Wang family has not yet come out.

Further down, there can only be a few aunts.

So the task of entertaining was given to Liu.

Yu Zi, Xu Wenda's ex-mother-in-law, and Yu Zi, whose unconventional character is perfect for entertaining annoying people.

Xu Wenda had met Mrs. Liu, but what she saw was Ms. Liu wearing a motherly mask.

He was secretly delighted with Liu's reception.

Marrying Wang Ruoyun was just a temporary expedient, but Chu Jinjin made a big fuss about the wedding and wanted her dowry back, which made him see a different Chu Jinjin!

It turns out that his Jinjin is not a delicate woman!

The news that Chu Zijian had been rescued had already spread throughout the capital, and there were all kinds of stories. But no matter which theory, Chu Jinjin became a famous figure overnight. Even if some people were disdainful and thought that it was difficult for such a woman to be a good wife, But there is no one who doesn’t admire me.

Breaking into the Black Eagle Village alone is so courageous. How many women in the world can do it?

Xu Wenda's heart is hot!

He liked Chu Jinjin before because he liked her natural temperament that was different from that of a noble girl. He couldn't tell outsiders. He went to his mother overnight and swore that sooner or later in his life, he would marry Jinjin again.

The main thing is that Jin Jin always has him in her heart.

The deeper the hate, the deeper the love.

So it would be great to see Mr. Liu in person this time.

Following the servant into the main hall, Xu Wenda saluted respectfully: "I have met Mrs. Liu."

Wang Ruoyun's greeting was very perfunctory.

Liu didn't care about this at all.

A few days ago, she wanted to tear Xu Wenda apart to vent her anger on her daughter, but now she has changed!

Become happy, even grateful!

As my daughter said, if you only find out that you are such a man after you get married and have children, it will be too late to look back. Chu Lingling is a good example.

Fortunately, her daughter escaped the fire pit, and Liu's unique brain circuit began to care about the replacement.

After a few polite words, Liu's eyes lingered on Wang Ruoyun's face and said sincerely: "Mrs. Xu, you are so good-looking."

Liu is over forty, but she has a special sense of romance, especially when she tells the truth.

Wang Ruoyun was stunned by the praise.

Of course she came here today to vent her anger.

Love rival Chu Jinjin became a strange woman, while she became a joke and a control group.

Reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling man, Wang Ruoyun thought Liu would be angry, but he didn't expect to hit the cotton with his punch.

Wang Ruoyun smiled stiffly.

Then, Mrs. Liu added seriously: "Only a little worse than our Jinjin."

Wang Ruoyun: "."

Of course my daughter is the most beautiful in the world, but Wang Ruoyun is also really good-looking.

Liu was suddenly a little confused. She couldn't figure out whether she was wearing a mother's filter. She looked at Xu Wenda and asked seriously: "What do you think?"

Xu Wenda: "."

This is a problem comparable to the question of who to save first when a mother’s daughter-in-law falls into a river.

In his heart, it must be Jinjin.

Wang Ruoyun has been acting like a psychopath these days, and it was her idea to come here today, but if she was said to be good-looking, it would be tantamount to offending her future mother-in-law.

It will be difficult from now on.

Xu Wenda found that he could not answer.

Ms. Liu didn't embarrass him, and continued to discuss it thoughtfully: "It's really difficult to choose, isn't it."

Xu Wenda: "."

The maid serving next to her tried to hold back her laughter, causing her whole body to tremble.

Wang Ruoyun was actually not stupid, but Xu Wenda's reaction was genuine. He gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, just tell the truth. Chu Jinjin is good-looking, right?"

Xu Wenda shuddered and made a difficult choice: "You and Miss Chu San are both beautiful in their own way, but the lady's temperament is better."

Mrs. Liu immediately became unwilling and lowered her face: "Xu Wenda, what do you mean, my Jinjin's temperament is not good, right? What did you say when you first pursued her? You asked the maid to write those slanderous articles every day, praising my daughter as a A flower, now forgotten?”

Xu Wenda felt like he was going crazy: "."

Wang Ruoyun can't stimulate any of the Liu family's pots.

"You can say that your wife is prettier, and I'm not the unreasonable kind of person." Ms. Liu became more and more excited as she spoke, "But you can't say that my daughter's temperament is not good. You, you just piss me off."

Xu Wenda felt that he was not far from death.

Wang Ruoyun's gaze could kill people.

Tonight, I will definitely ask him what poems he has written and how many poems he has written.

Liu's lack of focus had just begun. She ate several snacks angrily, drank another cup of tea, patted her chest, and then shifted her attention. She said in a caring tone like an elder: "Miss Wang, he Is it good for you?"

When I returned home, my mother also asked this question.

Wang Ruoyun smiled happily and said yes.

She didn't want her mother to worry.

Because of her own affairs, she made the Wang family a joke, and she was already very unfilial.

Now that I got what I wanted, I can’t ask for too much.

But is it actually good?

Ms. Liu understood and sighed: "It's not good, right?"

Wang Ruoyun: "."

"Mrs. Chu, it's not your turn to worry about this kind of thing." Wang Ruoyun realized that she didn't know when she was being led astray. She was here to cause trouble today. She looked outside impatiently, "When can Chu Jinjin return?"

"I don't know, it's about time." Mrs. Liu said softly like a kind mother, "Miss Wang, could he wash your feet last night?"

Xu Wenda: "."

Wang Ruoyun felt like he was struck by lightning: "What about foot washing?"

"It seems like it's gone." Liu hid her face, sincerely feeling sorry for Wang Ruoyun, and at the same time she finally satisfied her curiosity.

The reason why her daughter finally agreed to the marriage was because she once asked Xu Wenda if he would be willing to wash her feet after marriage.

A man who is willing to wash his daughter's feet is absolutely in love.

Xu Wenda didn't wash Wang Ruoyun's feet, which shows that he doesn't love him enough.

Ms. Liu was satisfied with her daughter, but felt sad for Wang Ruoyun.

When Chu Jinjin came back, she happened to meet the two of them going out. Although Xu Wenda immediately lowered his head to cover it up, he still saw the scratches on his face.

Chu Jinjin: "?"

Who scratched it?

Chu Jinjin was not interested in the relationship between the two. She chose her own path. She only cared about her dowry.

The total amount of the dowry matched, and some were replaced with cash. For example, the pair of pearl earrings worn by Xu Wenda's mother were converted into silver according to the market price.

No need to think about where the money came from.

Wang Ruoyun posted it.

Anyway, just pay it back.

Chu Lingling insisted on walking into the house, and couldn't help crying anymore. The road behind her was completely cut off. She cried for herself and her two children. From then on, it was difficult to see each other.

Mrs. Wang heard the sound and came over. She hugged her daughter and cried while scolding Chu Jinjin: "Why are you so cruel?"

According to her idea, the dowry can be exchanged for two children.

It's fine now, I was really offended, and everyone will become enemies in the future. This debt will inevitably fall on the two children.

Chu Jinjin understood her mood.

Yes, if the dowry is used in exchange, the Xu family has a high probability of agreeing, but that's not how the accounts are calculated.

How do you calculate Chu Lingling’s years of hard work?

The Xu family still had a prosperous life with the dowry. Xu Wenda rose in career through this incident, married again, and had new children. But what did Chu Lingling get?

Two children who should have been hers.

Chu Jinjin turned around and went to the backyard to find her grandfather.

She decided and agreed to take care of the family.

The Chu family is bound to be in turmoil in the future, and she must survive this journey.

In Chu Jingde's room in the backyard, Chu Yan was actually there.

Chu Jinjin quickly finished talking about the situation in this business, and keenly noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere: "Grandpa, brother, what happened?"

Chu Jingde sighed.

"Let me tell you." Chu Yan frowned, "There is something wrong with the gold mine my father invested in."

The Chu family relied on Chu Zijian's business path to become one of the top ten wealthy businessmen in the capital, but it would not be so easy to take another step forward.

What you earn by moving goods from north to south is the price difference, and the truly top wealthy businessmen need stronger industries.

Chu Zijian spent a full 30% of his net worth to win the mining rights of a gold mine just discovered by the imperial court.

News just came that the court official in charge of the gold mine found an unfounded reason to hand over the mining rights to others.
