Chapter 37 My good wife!

early morning.

Chen Qingyin fed Hu Mianmian chicken porridge. The little guy's face became pink and his big black eyes were full of satisfaction.

After finishing the whole bowl, Hu Mianmian still felt it was not enough, so she scooped up the food with her two little hands and licked it clean with her tongue.

Chen Qingyin was so amused that she couldn't stop laughing: "Good boy Mianmian, if it's not enough, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some for you at noon."

Hu Mianmian nodded repeatedly: "I want to eat, I want to eat roast chicken~"

Thinking of the fragrant and golden chicken, the little guy couldn't help drooling.

At this time, Linlang came in.

"Madam, I have brought back the jewelry you asked me to make in the Golden Tower."

Hu Mianmian looked over curiously.

All I saw was a veil wrapped around her face. It was called a veil, but it was made of small strands of pure gold rope. There was also a faint gold powder on the veil hanging below.

It looks expensive.

Chen Qingyin took it and looked at it with satisfaction: "Come, Mianmian, let mother give it a try."

The little guy blinked his big eyes: "Give it to me?"

Chen Qingyin put the veil on her, just enough to cover half of her face.

"Although your birthmark has healed, mother doesn't want the Hu family to know."

If she wanted to divorce and take her daughter with her, the Hu family would continue to dislike Hu Mianmian, thinking that her birthmark had not healed yet.

Although the little guy didn't understand why, his eyes suddenly lit up when his little hand touched the texture of gold.

"I like this!" She put it on her face and showed off in front of the maids standing beside her.

"Girls, does this look good on me?" The little guy danced with joy, and the maids also laughed and praised him.

Seeing her daughter having fun playing with them, Chen Qingyin also smiled gently.

Linlang stepped forward and lowered her voice, "Madam, I have some news about the matter you asked me to secretly inquire about before."

Chen Qingyin glanced sideways: "You say."

"Madam, you are right. When Madam Gao left the mansion, she was not there to give birth to a child. Instead, she was arranged by the old lady to take care of Liang Yunyan during her confinement."

After hearing this, Chen Qingyin suddenly clenched her fingertips.

As she thought, everyone in the Hu family knew about Liang Yunyan's existence, except her!

"I've been so sincere to them, yet they treat me like this!" Chen Qingyin's face turned pale with hatred.

Old Madam Hu was seriously ill the year before last and almost died.

She was the one who took care of Hu Mianmian day and night. At that time, Hu Mianmian was less than one year old. Chen Qingyin had to take care of her daughter and take care of her at the bedside. She collapsed from exhaustion twice.

But not only did Mrs. Hu not remember her contribution, she also helped her husband keep a mistress!

Linlang pulled out a list from her sleeve and handed it to Chen Qingyin.

"Madam, there is something even more outrageous. I found an excuse to check the accounts. According to your instructions, I investigated several account books of the accounting office that year. I found that when Liang Yunyan gave birth to two children, Madam Hu took a large amount of money from the household with various reasons."

Chen Qingyin took it and took a look, and almost fainted from anger.

When Liang Yunyan gave birth to Liang Ruosheng, Old Madam Hu gave her one thousand taels.

Later, she gave birth to Rong'er. Old Lady Hu was probably happy that it was a boy, so she gave him five thousand taels at once.

All this money was Chen Qingyin's own dowry!

For a while, Hu Yunshen was not in the mansion, and the huge general's mansion almost broke down. Chen Qingyin sold a lot of the silver she had saved from her dowry.

She often went to bed late, and in order to find ways to make more money, she made full use of the Hu family's only farm and her own land.

She was the legitimate daughter of a prime minister, but in order to save money on buying seeds, she went to bargain with farmers in person. Yet she was still looked down upon by others, who said that the richer she was, the more stingy she became.

She didn't expect that Mrs. Hu would give her so much money just for the money she saved.

How dare Liang Yunyan act so bossy in front of her and say that three generations of her family have been studying?

Why are you pretending to be so noble! How could a family with three generations of education raise such a person?

Chen Qingyin was so angry that she felt dizzy and her face turned pale.

Linlang quickly advised: "Madam, please don't be angry. Take care of yourself. If you get angry, they will be more satisfied."

Chen Qingyin felt that she was right and quickly calmed down.

"Thinking about it this way, Mianmian is really my lucky star. Fortunately, she made a mistake that day and made Rong'er nominally become Mr. Hu's illegitimate son. Now that this is the case, it will be much easier for me."

Linlang: "What is Madam going to do? As far as I know, that Madam Gao is the Madam's confidant and has been with her for more than 20 years. Now that she is with Young Master Rong'er, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take action."

Chen Qingyin sneered, her fair face revealing a frosty coldness.

"I don't need to do anything, I just need to add fuel to the fire. With the old lady's pettiness, she will naturally deal with Grandma Gao."

After breakfast.

Seeing that Hu Mianmian had eaten two more fruits, Chen Qingyin was afraid that she would have indigestion, so she took the little girl to the garden for a walk in the sun.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Liang Yunyan who also came out for some fresh air.

As soon as they met, Liang Yunyan put on a haughty look and waited for Chen Qingyin to pass by and then greeted her.

However, Chen Qingyin just glanced at her and treated her as air, taking Hu Mianmian to the side of the pond to feed the koi.

Liang Yunyan was stunned and thought, Chen Qingyin is really arrogant.

Just then, a nearby maid said, "The general is back."

Liang Yunyan looked up and saw Hu Yunshen walking towards them quickly with a happy look on his face.

Liang Yunyan immediately restrained her expression and showed a slight smile on her face.

"Greetings, General, General..." She was halfway through her words when she saw Hu Yunshen pass by her and walk towards Chen Qingyin with a smile.

Liang Yunyan froze in place.

Hu Yunshen didn't even look at her just now?

"Qingyin! My good wife!" It was the first time that Hu Yunshen called her like this, and his eyes were filled with unconcealable joy.

He grasped Chen Qingyin's hand, very excited: "I knew that marrying you would be a blessing. This morning, the emperor praised me at the court and said that he liked our Mianmian. He asked you to bring Mianmian to the palace to visit Concubine Shu when you are free."

"Not only that, the emperor also gave me a second-grade crane robe and told us to choose an auspicious day to move to Liuhua Hutong. I knew it was because you said a few good words for me when you went to the palace to visit Concubine Shu. With a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for!"

Listening to his words, Chen Qingyin felt hypocritical and disgusting. Hu Yunshen was very strong and held her hand tightly, so she couldn't pull it out.

Hu Mianmian looked up at Hu Yunshen and muttered angrily.

Get your stinky hands off me, scumbag!

Just then a bee flew over and fluttered around Hu Yunshen's cheek. Hu Yunshen quickly let go and drove the bee away.

Liang Yunyan on the other side felt so uncomfortable when she saw this scene that she turned around and left.

Chen Qingyin said calmly, "It is a gift from the Emperor, so my husband must live up to his appreciation. Otherwise, the second-rank crane robe can be a reward or an act of usurpation. It all depends on how my husband performs."

Hu Yunshen is extremely confident in himself.

"I am only a fourth-rank official, but I was able to get a second-rank official robe. In addition to your good words for me, it also has my own ability. Otherwise, why would the emperor value me so much?"

Seeing him laughing and talking so shamelessly, Chen Qingyin and Hu Mianmian, mother and daughter, rolled their eyes at the same time.

"Anyway, ma'am, you can start preparing to move."

After saying this, he hurried to tell Mrs. Hu and the others the good news.

When Mrs. Hu heard that she could move to a bigger house, she couldn't sit still. That night she asked Hu Yunshen to bring the house site map so that she could divide the yard in advance.

Considering that Chen Qingyin had contributed to this, Hu Yunshen called her along as well.
