Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

One afternoon a few days later, Chen Afu was sitting on the kang wearing an old cotton-padded jacket. She was teaching the two brothers how to put building blocks together, while little girl Chu was learning how to tie the knot with Grandma Li.

Perhaps her development was affected when she was a child, so the little girl's finger joints were not always very flexible, so Chen Afu asked her to do more stretching to practice her finger joints.

The weather is already a little warm now, and there is only a pot of charcoal burning in the house, not even the kang. There was a thick mattress on the kang, and I didn’t feel cold at all while sitting on it.

Chen Afu and the little girl were made to giggle by the two brothers from time to time.

At this time, the mother-in-law in the outer courtyard presented a note from the Zhennan Hou Mansion, saying that Mrs. Ma, the head of the Hou Mansion, would come to visit the eldest sister of the Chu family tomorrow morning, and Ma San, the eldest aunt of the eldest sister of the Chu family, would also come with her. Grandma, and cousin Miss Ma Si.

Zhennanhou Mansion is Ma Shufei's natal family.

Chen Afu frowned, but they came anyway. She said to the little girl, "Someone from the Ma family will come to see you tomorrow morning, so you don't have to go to class."

The Hou Mansion invited an old gentleman who specialized in teaching Miss Chu.

The little girl nodded and continued to apply the vagina.

The next day, Chen Afu dressed up the little girl. She wore a sky blue soft satin jacket and a long skirt, a pomegranate red jacquard brocade fur waistcoat, the sleeves and skirt were embroidered with plum blossoms, and the bun was stuck on the head. Two jade rabbit hairpins. Although she didn't wear any makeup, the little girl was still incredibly beautiful.

Around this time, Mrs. Ma and her party were brought to Zhuxuan.

Chen Afu took the little girl and waited at the door of the upper room.

Mrs. Madam Madam is about forty years old. She has exquisite makeup and is appropriately fat and thin. She can be considered a beautiful middle-aged woman. Behind her were a woman in her late thirties and a girl of twelve or thirteen years old.

Mrs. Ma is Ma Shufei's nephew-in-law, Rong Zhao's cousin-in-law, and also Chen Afu's elder. Chen Afu bent his knees and said with a smile, "Madam Madam Madam."

Mrs. Madam Ma looked at Chu Hanyan first, then took Chen Afu's hand and smiled, "Mrs. Chu, thank you for taking such good care of Yan'er."

Chen Afu smiled and said, "Yan'er is my daughter. We have a deep love as mother and daughter. Of course I must treat her well."

Madam Madam Ma choked for a moment, then said with a smile on her face, "Yes, Yan'er is so lucky to have a mother like you..."

Before she finished speaking, Grandma Ma San pulled Chu Hanyan into tears. He said, "Sister, it's great that you have grown up so much. My sister can rest in peace in heaven."

Miss Ma Si also pulled Chu Hanyan and said, "My cousin looks like my aunt, she is very handsome." After saying that, she also wiped away her tears.

Chu Hanyan shrank back in fright and pulled Chen Afu's hand tighter.

Chen Afu's eyebrows wrinkled.

Mrs. Ma also frowned. He thought to himself that this family was still a piece of shit, so he told them several times at home to work on it slowly, slowly coax the little girl's heart over, and then build a good relationship with the Chu family... ...No wonder it was of no use to Mrs. Ma to marry Chu Lingxuan. The Hou Mansion sent so much dowry in the hope that she could help Princess Rongzhao. As a result, no help was given and he died of illness at a young age. It's a pity that the several thousand taels of silver were all gone without even hearing the sound.

She forced herself to suppress her anger and said, "Although you are my biological aunt and cousin, this is the first time you meet, so don't scare me."

Grandma Ma San quickly laughed and said, "Oh, blame me. I was too happy to see my nephew and daughter, so I didn't care so much." Then she said, "Sister, your grandpa, grandma, and uncle all miss you. tight."

Several people entered the hall and sat down to have tea. Little Miss Chu went to kowtow to Mrs. Ma and Grandma Ma San. Mrs. Ma wiped off a pair of jadeite bracelets from her wrists and gave them to the little girl as a greeting gift. Grandma Ma San took a red gold bracelet from her head and set it with a grandma's bracelet. A peacock hairpin with several green rubies was given to the little girl as a meeting gift.

Chen Afu guessed that the peacock gold hairpin must have been given by the Ma family to Grandma Ma San, so that she could give it to the little girl as a meeting gift. When Grandma Ma San took it off, her hands were shaking a little, and Miss Ma Si's eyes were very reluctant to part with it.

Also, all the accessories on Grandma Ma San's body are not as valuable as that hairpin.

Chen Afu smiled again and took off a gold bird hairpin from his head as a greeting gift to Miss Ma Si, which made her a little happy.

Chen Afu secretly thought that his grandfather's family, which was so shameless and short-sighted, couldn't let the little girl have too much contact with them.

Several people started talking around the little girl. Mrs. Ma and Grandma Ma San talked about how they and their family missed the little girl and how they looked forward to her returning to Beijing soon.

Chen Afu was not polite and said that when he first saw the little girl, she was so pitifully thin and timid and introverted. How he racked his brains to prepare food for her and how to make her personality more outgoing.

Chen Afu couldn't say that the little girl was stupid, so he could only say that she was thin.

Mrs. Madam Ma's face turned red and white, and she was thinking a lot. If it were before, she would definitely not be polite to Mr. Chen. This Mrs. Chen is just the daughter of a fourth-rank petty official, and her husband is not only a marquis, but also a state uncle. But now it's no longer possible. Concubine Shu and Princess Rongzhao have too much time to take care of themselves. The Marquis has fallen in love with the wrong person again and has been assigned to the second prince's party. He is not popular with the emperor, let alone the prince.

The Marquis just wanted her to resume her relationship with the Chu Mansion through Chu Hanyan.

Mrs. Ma wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "To be honest with you, Mrs. Chu, it was all that evil slave who deceived Her Highness the Princess. We only heard about these things later. Oops, I felt heartbroken after hearing that. It’s been a long time…”

Grandma Ma San suggested, "The children are not interested in us adults talking. Sister Yan, take your cousin out to get some fresh air."

Miss Chu looked at Chen Afu, who nodded to her, then she got up and took Miss Ma Si out. Aunt Huang and Miao'er followed the little girl to serve her.

It was the first time that the Ma family came to visit, but Chen Afu still left a lunch.

After the meal, Grandma Ma San offered to let Chu Hanyan stay at home for a few days, saying that the little girl's grandmother was sick because she missed the little girl.

Chen Afu said with a smile, "Yan'er was frightened by evil people when she was a child, and she was very timid. Except following me, she would never leave the house alone. Not to mention living, she couldn't even play. So, since she was a child, the elders in the family have not allowed her to leave the house alone. I'll let her go out alone."

Mrs. Madam Ma forced a smile and said, "That's my sister's maternal grandfather's house, and it's not someone else's house. Will it harm her?"

Chen Afu wondered, "How about I send someone to the outer courtyard to question the old marquis? I will only let him go if he agrees."

Mrs. Madam and others were helpless, so they had to wait for someone to go to the outer courtyard to ask for instructions.
