Chapter 68

Everyone has a plan in mind, so they are all very motivated.

While Chen Zhi was busy with business outside, Xu Shuhe was staying at home to take charge of the house. He also freed up one hand to prepare to give Feng Shi another good fight.

Soon, Xinyue found out that the person was a kitchen helper named Wang Ren.

This person has been working for the Chen family for two or three years. He used to help the chef in the restaurant make snacks and soups. He was fired because he drank too much and messed up his work, so he came back to work for the Chen family.

This Wang Ren is not a good person. He likes to drink, beat people when he is drunk, and has a bad habit of gambling.

So I didn't save much money working for the Chen family in the past few years.

After hearing the report, Xu Shuhe was not in a hurry.

Just let Xinyue keep an eye on this person first.

Soon after, Meixiang also came to report that day that Mother Qiu, who was with Feng, had financial dealings with a strange young man outside.

The man was an unemployed vagrant. After receiving the silver from Mother Qiu for no reason, he went to hang around the small house where Miss Guo lived, seemingly with ill intentions.

"Send someone to secretly guard Miss Guo and then inform her of the news. Also, continue to keep an eye on the movements around Feng." Xu Shuhe ordered.

She had a feeling that the show was about to begin.

Feng acted even faster than she had imagined.

From this perspective, I'm afraid this good show can be held on Chen Yurong's birthday.

Tsk, it’s a good thing that Chen Yurong is already married and won’t celebrate her birthday at the Chen family. Otherwise, if the Chen family’s scandal happened before her birthday, then such a good birthday would be ruined.

How uncomfortable it must be.

But it’s none of her business, she still has to give the gift.

It’s also a considerable expense.

Other courtyard.

Guo Yunya was happy when she received the news from Xu Shuhe.

The sooner Feng starts taking action, the sooner she can gain her freedom.

So after some thought, she decided to take the initiative.

That day she put on a veil and a veil hat, and went out with the maid from the other courtyard, using the excuse of going out to buy silk threads and other things, and making a few things by herself in order to become a concubine of the Chen family.

As soon as he went out, he ran into the man who was hanging around the house.

With a little skill, Guo Yunya talked a few words to the man, which made him imagine that she was a frivolous and easy-to-touch woman.

Sure enough, the man immediately contacted Mother Qiu and no one knew what they said.

In Fuyunju, Xu Shuhe listened to the information brought by Meixiang and thought in his heart that it was time to take action.

Just as he was thinking about it, the second-class maid knocked gently on the door.

Xinyue immediately hurried over to check, and returned soon after, saying, "The Liang family sent us an invitation, saying that the day after tomorrow is the eldest girl's birthday. Although it's not a full birthday, they are preparing to set up a family dinner, which will be lively and festive. So, please invite everyone in the family to go to the Liang family the day after tomorrow to have a drink and celebrate the eldest girl's birthday."

"The Liang family treats my sister very well." Xu Shuhe said.

I thought to myself, is Chen Yurong's personality different in the Liang family?
Otherwise, how could I be treated so well by my husband's family?

After all, my brother-in-law Liang Jingzhou has already become an official in the Hanlin Academy, while the Chen family is just merchants. According to the current saying of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, they are not as good as the Liang family.

Chen Yurong married into a wealthy family.

"Perhaps the Liang family sees that our fourth young master is a good student and may pass the imperial examination next year, so they want to improve the relationship." Meixiang said, and then thought for a while, "Although I have not been in the mansion for a long time, but last year on the birthday of the eldest lady, no one from the Liang family came to invite me to the mansion to attend the banquet."

After hearing this, Xu Shuhe felt that it made some sense, so she didn't think about it any more. She got the news from the Liang family, and naturally the Feng family too.

Looking at the invitation in her hand, Feng couldn't help but think of something.

Then he waved for Mother Qiu to come forward and whispered a few words in her ear.

On Chen Yurong's birthday, the entire Chen family went to the Liang Mansion to celebrate the birthday of their married daughter.

It was also on this day that Xu Shuhe met Mrs. Liang, Chen Yurong's mother-in-law, for the first time.

No wonder they say birds of a feather flock together. After meeting Mrs. Liang, Xu Shuhe understood why his aunt Lin Hui made a special trip to the Liang family to maintain relations when she came to Qizhou last time.

At first glance, Mrs. Liang is a smart, wise, calm and upright person.

Thinking that such a person was an acquaintance of Chen Zhi's biological mother, Xu Shuhe couldn't help but think that her real mother-in-law should also be gentle and kind.

When the two families met, Mrs. Liang kept talking to Chen Huaiqian and Feng. Xu Shuhe was a junior, so naturally he had little chance to interrupt, so he just sat there quietly.

From the conversation between several people, Xu Shuhe learned two important pieces of information.

Chen Yurong has been pregnant again, and it has been more than a month. Her brother-in-law Liang Jingzhou has been an official in the Hanlin Academy and only comes back every month during his days off. The two have been married for so many years and are finally pregnant with their second child. The Liang family is naturally happy.

So today, on Chen Yurong's birthday, I called all the Chen family members over to have fun together.

In fact, this is also Mrs. Liang’s selfish desire.

She just wanted to take this opportunity to tell the Chen family, especially Feng, that Chen Yurong was pregnant and needed to protect the fetus, so she shouldn't even think about calling her back to the Chen family.

After all, whenever Feng needed someone to help her, she would always ask Chen Yurong to go back.

Now, Mrs. Liang would never allow her daughter-in-law or the grandchildren in her belly to make any mistakes.

Otherwise, it would not have been announced to the public when Chen Yurong's belly was less than three months old.

However, Mrs. Liang's worries this time were unnecessary. Feng was very angry when she encountered trouble this time, and she really didn't intend to use Chen Yurong as a gun.

She thinks it's not enough.

Well, today is the important day for her plan to be implemented.

The Chen family had a drink at the Liang Mansion. Chen Huaiqian was so happy that he drank a few more glasses. He was a little drunk before Feng persuaded him to go back.

But when they were halfway back home, the carriage was stopped by someone.

The person who stopped the carriage was not someone else but Mother Qiu who was beside Feng.

Today, Mother Qiu did not accompany Feng to the Liang Mansion for the banquet. She was assigned to do other things. Now she suddenly stopped a car on the way, and no one knew what happened.

However, when Mother Qiu stopped the carriage and said something to Chen Huaiqian and Feng, Chen Huaiqian immediately ordered the carriage to go to the villa.

At the same time, he also sent a message to the two sons, Chen Jin and Chen Zhi, asking them to take their wives back first.

After hearing the news, Chen Jin and Li Mingzhu were both a little confused, but on Chen Zhi's side, Xu Shuhe knew that there was going to be a good show in the villa.

"I dare not alarm the people inside, for fear that if I catch her, Miss Guo will deny her, and I am also afraid that the master will not believe me, so I hurried to find the master and the mistress. Please go and take a look in person. This Miss Guo is indeed having an affair with a man outside her family. She is not clean. Such a person must not enter the gate of the Chen family!"

After getting off the carriage, Mother Qiu led the way in front and spoke in a low voice.

Chen Huaiqian's face looked extremely ugly, and he walked very quickly. He wished he could immediately cross the alley, rush to the scene, and determine the authenticity with his own eyes.

But when he was about to reach the alley entrance, what caught his eye was the flames rising high in the courtyard and a ragged man hurriedly fleeing from the fire.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Feng and Mother Qiu looked at each other and were stunned.

How could this happen? This is different from what they had arranged in advance.
