Chapter 803 This Time, Thanks to the Chen Family!

hugged her neck. 。Then Old Li came to her senses and struggled to stand up. 。Fortunately, the people sitting on the carriage pole were all unfamiliar 。As he got closer, the middle-aged coachman drivi..."Master, what happened to Junyan Why was he suddenly put on leave at home!" Old Madam Wen entered the room and asked directly, her expression filled with alarm.

She seemed to be particularly favored by time. Two or three years passed, and she was still as delicate and innocent as ever.

At this time, she was dressed in a plain dress, her hair styled in a loose bun with a white jade hairpin. Her complexion was smooth and flawless, without a wrinkle to be seen.

"Who would believe this is a woman in her fifties People would even believe she's in her forties!"

Grandpa Wen originally loved her like this, which is why he took her into the family.

The result is that life requires a virtuous wife and mother, not a "girl" who spends all day reading romantic novels and lamenting her fate.

Personal connections and child education are important, but when it comes to household management, things often fall apart.

At such a time today, shouldn't the matriarch be intimidating the servants and stabilizing the household

As a result, being in such a rush and crying until my eyes were red, what use was it

Who else is she expecting to coddle her!

Elder Wen was annoyed and waved her hand, dismissing them. "Go back quickly and look at your books. You can't help with family matters!"

Lady Wen didn't feel disdained, thinking her husband was worried for her. She pulled out her handkerchief and sobbed, "Even if my dear husband cares about me, it's no use! My son has done such a thing, how could I just sit idly by!"

"I'm going to find Ching Lin and have him figure something out. How could he ruin Jun Yan just because of a few pieces of ink!"

Wen Junyan, hearing this, immediately burst into tears in his mother's arms, "Mother, the second brother is really too heartless."

"That magistrate of Anyang County was his classmate, and the matter itself had been suppressed. Now that he's bringing it up again, he's just trying to get me killed! He can't stand seeing me filial to my parents."

The guard at the gate bowed his head, his lips twitching.

In recent years, the old master has gone to the backyard to greet his wife only a handful of times, and every time he does so, it's to ask his wife for private funds to squander.

Now when people say "filial piety," they really make it sound so old-fashioned!

Finally, Mrs. Wen had persuaded her mother-in-law, and now she was also speaking to the old grandfather: "Father, my second brother has always been filial to his mother, why don't I accompany my mother to take a walk at Suijin Beach"

"Even if the second brother had many grievances against his family, he would never yell at his mother.

"Besides, my second brother and sister-in-law had a little girl. I prepared some things and will send them over together."

The old patriarch Wen thought of his stubborn second son, a flash of anger and displeasure crossed his eyes. But seeing the eldest son, who was as frightened as a lost dog, he finally nodded and instructed his eldest daughter-in-law, "You accompany your mother there, remember to persuade the couple well."

"Even if there are more misunderstandings and resentments in the family, it's time to let go after all these years. As long as they come back and kowtow a few times, we can still welcome them back into the family..."

Mrs. Wen's pupils shrank.

Though she truly didn't want the second son to come back and divide the inheritance, right now saving her husband was more important!

She had secretly sent someone to inquire earlier. If her husband's charges were proven true, being dismissed from office would be a light punishment; at the very least, he would have to serve an additional five years of hard labor!

If the husband goes to prison, this family will be ruined...

Seeing that his daughter-in-law didn't object, Old Master Wen let out a sigh of relief.

The eldest seems to have lost his spark. The future glory and wealth of the Wen family will likely rest on the second son's shoulders.

Let the elder brother enter the house first, and we can discuss the rest later.

Thinking this way, he held his head and ordered, "Go get the doctor. I have a headache and feel nauseous."

Mrs. Wen understood and loudly ordered the servants to quickly go all out and invite a doctor.

Wen Junyan also advised: "Find a few more doctors to consult together."

Only Madam Wen, with tears in her eyes, rushed forward and grasped the old master's hand, looking as if the sky was falling.

Before anyone else could react, she was about to faint from crying...

Everyone says that fewer people make for a better meal, and more people are better for work. At Suijintan, everyone worked together to build several sheds. With such unity, progress was naturally rapid, achieving a thousand miles in a day.

It hasn't been long, the foundation of the new house has already been laid, and they have started building the walls.

Xin Du was over a thousand li south of where Li Jia originally lived in the north, and the climate here was much warmer.

So, the wall didn't need to be too thick; by half an afternoon it had reached almost halfway up.

Mr. Wen and Lao Er Li from the city, as usual, strolled around the construction site. When they came out, they happened to meet Mrs. Wen holding Yueya'er. Mr. Wen quickly took his daughter over.

"Auntie, why don't you stay for dinner with us Just go home and change your clothes," Mrs. Wen said with a smile.

"Good." The family of three walked a few steps and entered their own courtyard.

Seeing that her mistress and the others had something to say, she beckoned Yueyaya over and went to wash their hands.

Mrs. Wen helped her husband change into a plain stone-blue cotton-padded robe, and after taking several glances, she couldn't help but feel delighted.

As the saying goes, "one's countenance reflects one's heart." These past few years have been smooth sailing for him, especially after the arrival of their daughter. The husband's long-held resentment from earlier years has completely dissipated. Now his brows are relaxed, and he appears more refined and composed than ever.

But recalling something, she became a little worried. Looking around to make sure there were no outsiders in the room, she whispered, "Senior brother, I'm afraid the Wen family will come to investigate this. What should we do then"

"Wen Junyan definitely doesn't want to resign!" Mr. Wen snorted, not even calling him "big brother," "Father has a dignified face and won't come to plead for him. Wen Junyan will also have to reflect in seclusion, so it must be my mother and sister-in-law who went to intercede."

If I'm not home, just tell her everything listens to me, and then complain to my mother more. My mother has no ideas and won't use her seniority to pressure you.

Mrs. Wen sighed.

It's truly awkward for the couple to meet up with the Wen family.

When it comes to blood ties, nothing is closer than family.

But when disaster struck, Wen's actions were too cold and cruel.

She suddenly asked curiously, "How did you know that Wen Jiaqiang bought Mo Fang"

Mr. Wen's face was not looking good, he picked out a jade pendant to hang on his waist and said, "Speaking of which, it's a message sent by the Chen family."

Their family had lost their city defense positions and they were all ex-soldiers, unable to read or write, so they formed a bodyguard agency.

A while back, they had a business deal in Anyang. Hearing about it there and knowing that Wen Junyan was my brother, they came back to tell me the whole story clearly.

"Fortunately, they reported it, otherwise Wen Junyan would have used my name to smooth things over. I wouldn't have known, and my classmate even took responsibility for it.

And what's more, we were engaged in a crucial battle with the Wu and Wang families. Without prior remedy and careful planning, we would have been utterly defeated...

Mrs. Wen nodded, she also disliked Wen Junyan's self-centered actions.

"Okay, you can rest assured, I know what to do."

After the couple had made their plans, they took their child to eat next door.

Jiayin has been craving sweet corn lately, so she took some out from the space last night.

Cooked half of it, and the other half was peeled into tender corn kernels, mashed with sugar, and placed in a pan to be fried until golden brown on both sides. It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

A faint sweetness is infused with a rich, corn fragrance. Lao Li and the children especially love to eat it.

Especially the stars and crescents, this moment one person wore a dirt-resistant robe, chubby hands holding a spoon, eating happily and boldly.

"Auntie, the corn cakes are delicious! I want to eat them again tomorrow!" Xingxing was enjoying her meal and already thinking about the next one.

Yueyaer also nodded, wanting to speak, but her mouth was full, so she could only nod along with effort.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and the dinner table became even more lively.eside her stepfather, causing everyone to laugh.The lord opened the large sheet of paper and asked, "Funiu'er, is this a map""Yeah, it's just a map, a simple map!" Jiayin perked up, her voice brimming...
