Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce
392 Chapter 392, a perfect life
In the Changle Palace, Qiao Jinniang was also having a headache over Lu Xi’s marriage. Back then, she and Lu Chen both had children early on, but when it came to Lu Xi, he did not like any woman.
The officials often mentioned that Lu Xi should marry Qiao Nichang or Qiao Nihong. Qiao Jinniang had considered it.
But to Lu XI, they were just Little Sisters. They might as well get along better with Lu Ang.
Qiao Jinniang went to the Eastern Palace and saw that the soft and cuddly little ball had grown to be a head taller than her. She was extremely gratified.
“Xi'er, today another official suggested that you should choose a consort. What do you think? Do you want mother to hold a flower feast and you can choose properly?”
Lu Xi cupped her hands and said, “Thank you, mother, but there’s no need.”
Qiao Jinniang frowned slightly and said, “Tell me the truth. Do You Like Men? “You don’t have to lie to mother. Mother has read many books. Qiu Yue has written many books. There are many good things about long yang. I can take it.”
Lu Xi said,”... mother, don’t let your imagination run wild. I didn’t choose a consort because I have long Yang’s good things. It’s just that I haven’t met a woman who can make me fall in love with her.”.
Father and mother have been loving each other for more than twenty years, and I’m very envious. If I want to find a woman, I must find one who has the same mind, and not just make do with her.
There will only be one crown prince concubine in the Eastern Palace in the future.”
Lady Qiao Jin did not force the two children to not take concubines or have a relationship in the future.
She just did not ask the Shang Gong bureau to arrange for them to raise palace maids to enlighten the two children.
Although ang ‘er was only eighteen years old, there were already concubines in the backyard of the imperial residence.
However, Lu Xi was already twenty-three years old, and there was not a single woman by her side.
When Qiao Jin returned to Changle Palace, Lu Chen saw that she was feeling uneasy and said, “Why are you worrying about all this? Xi'er just hasn’t met the right person yet.
“I heard that Father’s health is getting worse, so I thought it would be better for Xi'er to temporarily take charge of court affairs. I’ll go with you to Lingnan to visit father and mother. It’s been two years since I’ve seen Weiyang. She should be a big girl now.”
Qiao jinniang nodded and said, “Mm, alright. Forget it. I Won’t worry about Xi'er anymore.”
Back then, the Hui Lin Emperor had met his mother when he was over thirty years old. Xi'er was indeed young now.
This time, when they went to Lingnan, Qiao Jinniang had not expected to say goodbye to the Hui Lin Emperor forever. The Hui Lin Emperor had already passed the age of seventy, which could be considered a long life.
After the death of the retired Imperial Kingdom, Lu Chen imitated the Hui Lin Emperor and gave the throne to Lu Xi. He brought Qiao Jinniang to Lingnan to take care of Empress Dowager Zhou, who was unwilling to return to Chang ‘an.
After the death of Hui Lin Emperor, Empress Dowager Zhou aged a lot. She often stared at the ocean in a daze.
After Qiao Jinniang discussed with Lu Chen, she brought Empress Dowager Zhou back to Lin ‘an. For Qiao Jinniang, Lin ‘an was the place where she felt most at ease.
When she left that year, she was eighteen years old in her youth. Now that she had returned, she was already thirty-eight years old. The only thing she was glad about was that she and Lu Chen were still in their prime.
She could take a look at the boundless scenery of Jiangnan.
Ever since Lu Xi ascended the throne, the prosperous era that had lasted for two dynasties was still as prosperous as ever. The only exception was the six palaces without concubines.
The civil and historical officials could already accept that when the time came, there would be only one empress in the six palaces, but they could not accept that there would be no one in the palace when the new emperor ascended the throne.
When Qiao Jinniang returned to the Hundred Savory restaurant, Lu Chen did not allow her to return to the kitchen. Qiao Jinniang’s parents had both died young because they had stayed in the kitchen for too long. Qiao jinniang only taught her disciples how to cook.
Weiyang only liked to settle accounts and collect money. The guests in the restaurant did not know that she was a princess and only thought that she was a distant relative of glutinous rice. She hugged the money and smiled all day long.
Qiao Jinniang’s disciple was either an outsider or glutinous Rice’s daughter. She was two years younger than Weiyang and loved to make pastries since she was young. However, after learning from Qiao Jinniang for less than two years and reaching marriageable age, she married into Chang ‘an.
After Qiao Jinniang “Lost”her beloved disciple, Weiyang could not escape from her vicious hands.
For the sake of their mother-daughter love, Lu Chen said to Qiao jinniang, “If you really want to take in disciples, why don’t You Teach Me?”
“Sure.”Qiao Jinniang smiled and pulled Lu Chen into the kitchen to study pastries. They were carefree and carefree on a daily basis.
Until two major events that made her want to fly to Chang ‘an immediately and break the legs of her two sons came from Chang ‘an.
First, the concubine in the Ang’er’s mansion was pregnant. This was not a big deal. It was not a big deal that the eldest son and daughter of the Prince had a concubine. She was angry because Lu ang refused to give the concubine a title.
Lu Chen had given an imperial edict. It was the same even for royal relatives and nobles. Without a title, an heir was an illegitimate child.
The concubine somehow had the ability to escape from Chang ‘an. Lu ANG mobilized the troops of Chang ‘an. Lu Xi could not help but agree to close the city gates of Chang ‘an and search for his concubine door to door.
Fortunately, the two brothers had been very close since they were young, so there was no misunderstanding that Lu ang was going to rebel.
Secondly, after Lu Xi stole Tang Yuanyuan, the wife of the former top scholar and now the concubine of the imperial scholar of the Imperial Academy of Han in Chang ‘an, Tang Yuanyuan met Lu Xi on the way to Chang ‘an leading a group of ministers hunting. When she was making a beggar’s Chicken by the roadside.., lu Xi went to Tang Yuanyuan’s side under cover of her identity.
It was funny to see a bride in wedding clothes squatting by the roadside, cooking a beggar’s Chicken.
After tasting the beggar’s Chicken in her hands, the taste reminded Lu Xi of her mother’s cooking skills when she was young.
After asking around, she found out that she was aunt glutinous Rice’s daughter. In the early years, she had made a marriage contract with her brother, who was next to her, and her neighbor’s brother stayed in Chang ‘an four years ago after he passed the exam. She was married to Chang ‘an.
Lu Xi had wanted to take care of Tang Yuanyuan for the sake of aunt glutinous rice.
Unexpectedly, after taking care of her, she fell in love with her cooking. On the day she sent Tang Yuanyuan off to get married, he actually brought Tang Yuanyuan back to the palace and announced that the world was going to marry Tang Yuanyuan as their queen!
Lu Chen and Lu Weiyang helped Qiao Jinniang to ease her anger.
Lu Weiyang said, “Mother, don’t be angry. It’s very expensive to take medicine when you’re angry!”
Qiao Jinniang said,”... why do I feel even angrier?”
Lu Weiyang said obediently, “If you’re really angry, I’ll help you go to Chang ‘an. I’ll give my brothers a few punches and teach them a lesson!”
“That’s a good girl,”Qiao Jinniang said. “I’m still the most thoughtful daughter.”
Lu Chen said to Qiao jinniang, “Don’t be angry. Xi'er is already so old. Don’t tell me you don’t know what he’s doing?”
“The matter of snatching an official’s wife will go down in the annals of History!”Qiao jinniang said, “Alas, I’m still worried about the two of them.”?
“And Ang’er. That concubine didn’t cherish him when he was around. Now, he has run away and closed the Chang ‘an city gates. He has even searched every house. If I see him, I’ll skin him alive!”
Lu Chen said, “You don’t have to make the first move. I’ll teach them a lesson. You should just go with the flow. It’s not worth it to be angry over those two unfilial sons.”
Empress Dowager Zhou smiled faintly and said, “I also said the same thing to your father back then. It can be said that the Heavenly Dao is a good reincarnation.”
Qiao Jinniang, Lu Chen:”...”
After they came out of the private room, Lu Weiyang saw an extremely beautiful woman enter the door.
The woman at the door was very thin and weak. She looked like she would be pitied if I saw her. However, her lower abdomen seemed to be about five or six months pregnant.
Lu Weiyang went up to her and asked, “Is this elder sister staying in a restaurant or a top-notch one?”
The woman said weakly, “I want to ask about someone. Have you heard about the Qian family that lives in that alley? Everyone calls her old lady Qian.”
Lu Weiyang said, “I really don’t know about that. I’ll go and ask. Xiaolong, pour this female guest a cup of hot tea.”
Weiyang went to find Qiao Jinniang to ask about the whereabouts of Old Lady Qian. Qiao jinniang said, “Poor Old Lady Qian. She lost her life ten years ago. But her daughters are all promising. Who will come to find her?”
“It’s a beautiful sister.”Weiyang took Qiao Jinniang’s hand and went over.
Qiao Jinniang walked over. When the beautiful and weak woman saw Qiao Jinniang, she was so scared that her legs went weak and she knelt on the ground. “Empress, no, Empress Dowager.”
Qiao Jinniang thought about the things in the world. It was really a coincidence. Wasn’t this woman the woman who made Lu Ang Go Crazy in Chang ‘an?
“You don’t have to bow if you’re pregnant. Why are you looking for the rich woman?”
“She’s my aunt...”
“She passed away ten years ago. But your cousins are doing very well in business now. Do you want me to introduce them to you?”
Qingyu hurriedly shook her head and said, “I don’t dare to trouble the Empress Dowager. I’ll take my leave first.”
“Stop, where do you think you’re going with your child? Stay here and have a good rest in the Hundred Savory restaurant. If you’re afraid that Ang ‘er will be at ease, I won’t tell him about this.”
Qingyu repeatedly thanked her. “Thank you, Empress Dowager.”
Weiyang ordered the servant girls in the restaurant to send Qingyu to the side room to rest. “Mother, are you really not going to tell second brother that his concubine is here?”
Qiao jinniang said, “Yes, I won’t tell Ang ‘er, but you two have a deep sibling relationship. I Won’t stop you from snitching.”
Weiyang understood and nodded. “I’ll write a letter to second brother now. 800 Li is quite expensive. When our merchant ship goes to Chang ‘an, we can send the letter along.”
Qiao Jinniang didn’t care.
On the night of the 15th of July, there was no one on the road. Even the night watchman left in a hurry.
On that night, Qian Qingyu gave birth to a boy who was eight ounces in weight. Such a heavy boy almost killed Qian Qingyu.
Qiao Jinniang held her grandson who had just come out. She made up her mind to give Lu ang a few whips when she saw him.
Weiyang also wanted to hug her nephew, “Mother, he looks like me. Second Brother doesn’t want a child, can I have this child?”
“Aren’t you afraid that raising a child will cost you money?”Qiao Jinniang smiled.
Lu Weiyang said, “It’s worth it to give such a cute child money.”
One month later, the child was full moon and it was the mid-autumn Festival. Qiao Jinniang invited Qiao Ruoyun’s family and glutinous Rice’s family to celebrate the mid-autumn Festival together. Poor glutinous rice still did not know that her daughter had been forced to stay in the palace and become an empress.
She was still lamenting, “It’s a pity that the little master is not here. Today is his twenty-sixth birthday. I still remember how he looked when he was born, just like this child.”
Qian Qingyu had just given birth. Initially, she would not have dared to have dinner with Lu Chen and Qiao Jinniang even if she was beaten to death.
However, Wei Yang had threatened her to sink her child into the pond if she did not come. Only then did she find out that she was here to celebrate the full moon for her child.
“This child really looks like little master.”
Qiao Jinniang held the child in her arms and said, “How can I not look like Ang’er’s Child?”
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the Qiao family’s small courtyard. It turned out that Lu Xi and Lu Ang had come. When Qiao Jinniang saw the two of them, she wanted to find a broom and a rolling pin.
Wei Yang silently handed the whip in his hand to Qiao Jinniang.
Lu Chen took the lead and threw it to Lu Xi. “The two of you, give each other three lashes. Don’t let your mother and I fight.”
Glutinous Rice said to Qiao jinniang, “Master, it’s a big festival and it’s Little Master’s birthday. Why hit him?”
Qiao Jinniang found it difficult to speak. She glared at Lu XI and said, “Tell me what you did.”
Lu Xi walked up to glutinous rice and gave a big bow. “Mother-in-law.”
Glutinous rice looked at it carefully. “Brother Tuan, are you calling for me?”
“Yes, mother-in-law. I’ve decided to marry Yuan Yuan as my queen. Yuan Yuan also has my child. I’ve come to pay my respects to fulfill the six rites.”
Glutinous rice:”...”
Lu Ang saw the whispers on the table and went over in disbelief. “You’re actually here? Where’s the child? Do you know how hard I’ve searched for you?”
Qiao jinniang asked Lu Weiyang, “Didn’t you give the letter to your second brother?”
Lu Weiyang covered his mouth and said, “Oh my, the ship’s boss didn’t know my identity last time and insisted that I give him three copper coins to deliver the letter. I didn’t want to. I actually forgot about it after that.”
Lu Ang glared at Lu Weiyang. “Three copper coins. If you give me the letter, how can I lose three copper coins?”
“That’s different. Once you’re in my money bag, there’s no reason for you to spit it out,”Lu Weiyang said proudly. “HMPH, you did it yourself. I’m the first one to see your son!”
Lu Ang was helpless. What else could his sister do? He could only endure it.
Lu ang held Qingyu’s hand and knelt with her in front of Lu Chen and Lady Qiao Jin. “Father, mother, I want to marry Qingyu as the princess consort. In this lifetime, I will definitely not let her down.”
Lu Xi also went to the door and brought Tang Yuanyuan over. She said to Lu Chen and lady qiao, “Father, mother, in-law, father-in-law, I want to marry Yuanyuan as the empress. In this lifetime, she will be my only wife.”
Lady Qiao said angrily, “Don’t ask us. The question should be whether Yuanyuan and Qingyu will agree or not?”
Tang Yuanyuan lowered her head shyly and said, “I am willing.”
Qingyu said, “I don’t dare to be unwilling.”
Qiao Ruoyun tried to mediate between them, “Alright, Alright. Today is our family gathering, and it’s the day of the mid-autumn Festival. Let’s eat first, and let the servant girl serve two bowls and chopsticks.”
The mid-autumn Festival was a full moon, and the gentle moonlight shone on the courtyard of the Qiao family’s small courtyard. The fragrance of osmanthus flowers filled the air, and they drank fine wine together.
Qiao Jinniang Glanced at Lu Chen, who was beside her. Seeing that Lu Chen was also looking back at her, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
With their children by her side, the rest of their lives were free and dull. Their lives were also complete.
The only worry was that the stingy princess Weiyang would not know when she would be able to find a prince consort that she was willing to spend money on..
