On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Yan Ruyu wanted to ask Mrs. Cao in detail about the family background of Shen Wenqi, the wife of Shen Sima, but Mrs. Cao shook her head and said she didn't know.

It was getting late without her noticing. Madam Cao stood up and said, "Oh, we have been busy talking. It's already so late. I wonder if my master has finished talking to the prince. Is he waiting anxiously?"

Yan Ruyu then said, "Governor Cao has left. I sent someone to take Madam back. Governor Cao may be busy these days. Madam, if you have nothing to do, you can come and visit us often."

When Mrs. Cao heard her say this, she knew that what her husband did must be related to Huo Changhe.

"Okay, I will come here often, as long as the lady doesn't bother me."

"No, I hope you come more often. Next time you come, I'll ask them to send some new snacks."

"A word is settled!"

Yan Ruyu ordered someone to send Madam Cao back home and make sure she got home safely.

When Mrs. Cao returned home, she saw the light on in her husband's study, but she did not go in to disturb him. Instead, she went to the kitchen and saw the soup on the stove. She then fried two of her husband's favorite dishes, put them in a lunch box and took it to the kitchen.

Governor Cao didn't even raise his head: "Results so soon? Let me see."

Madam Cao came closer and whispered, "What are you looking at? Eat quickly."

Governor Cao looked up and said with a smile, "It's Madam. I thought it was Cui Chong."

Madam Cao set the table and asked him to wash his hands. Governor Cao took a sip of the soup, feeling very satisfied.

"Madam, you know that I am full of ambitions. Youcheng will soon be turned upside down in my hands!"

Mrs. Cao's eyes sparkled: "Oh? Tell me about it."

Governor Cao thought for a moment and whispered, "I can't tell you yet. I promised the prince that I will keep it secret for now."

"Don't blame me, ma'am."

Mrs. Cao sighed softly: "Why should I blame you? As long as you do what you like and do it with a clear conscience, I have nothing to say."

"I just hope you are safe and healthy."

Governor Cao was shocked and his eyes were a little sore: "Madam, I will remember your words and be a good official and a good person."

"What's the most important thing?"

"The most important thing is to take care of yourself and spend the rest of your life with your wife."

Madam Cao snorted, "That's more like it."

When the meal was almost over, Cui Chong came with his people, and Mrs. Cao packed up her things and left the study.

She looked at her husband through the window paper and sighed softly.

It’s a good thing, it’s as if I see him again when he was young. He is no longer suppressed by the Shen family like in the past few years. He just lives one day at a time.

Madam Cao thought that the princess and her husband had really changed the fate of her family, and she had to give something in return.

Carrying the things given by Yan Ruyu, Mrs. Cao went to the back house. She wanted to see if her little grandson was asleep, but she saw her daughter sitting under the lamp, frowning and looking unhappy.

"Xia'er, what's wrong?" Mrs. Cao put down the basket. "Did you have a fight?"

"Mother," Miss Cao held her hand, looked at the basket, and whispered, "You went to the palace?"

Madam Cao nodded and glanced at the bed: "Is Bao'er asleep? What's wrong with you? Talk to mother."

Miss Cao's eyes were filled with anger: "Mom, I went out this afternoon and bought a drunk duck at the restaurant. I overheard some people drinking and chatting. One of them said that his sister had taken a fancy to the Prince of Zhennan."

"Listen, is this human language? His sister fell in love with the Prince of Zhennan, and she said it as if whoever she fell in love with had to agree to it, as if it was someone else's honor. If you don't know, you would think his sister is a princess."

"Even if she is a princess, you can't talk to the prince like this, right? Where does that put the princess? What the hell!"

Miss Cao spoke with indignation and gnashing of teeth.

Mrs. Cao was also angry when she heard this: "Who is it that speaks so arrogantly?"

"I asked around. He's from the Cheng family. The eldest son of the Cheng family, his sister, isn't she Cheng Fengyao?"

Madam Cao narrowed her eyes and said, "It's her. The princess has taught her a lesson before, but it seems she still hasn't learned her lesson."

"I was still thinking about how to repay the princess, and now it seems that I have an idea."

Miss Cao quickly asked: "Mom, what can you do? What can I do?"

"You don't have to do anything," Madam Cao chuckled. "Do we need both mother and daughter to deal with them? Watch me."

The next morning, Mrs. Cao called someone over and gave some instructions.

Cheng Guanghan has been in a very good mood these days. The Qiu family has already transported the cloth twice, and only the last one third is left. He will pay the rest of the money after it is transported away.

The shop will be empty and he can get some new goods. Although the weather is still cold, it is time to prepare the fabrics for spring clothes. When the time comes, he can discuss with the Qiu family about the styles of clothes and other things. Business will definitely be better than it is now.

With the addition of one tenth of the trade market, the Qiu family's rapid rise to prominence is just around the corner.

He drank too much last night and did not return home, so he stayed in a small house outside the mansion.

He had a private house and kept a girl there. The girl was originally a singer and was bullied on the street. He rescued the girl and was attracted by her beauty. The girl saw that he was handsome and generous, so she agreed to marry him and lived with him in the small house.

This is the first time I have never returned home from a night spent in this private residence.

In the past, he would go home no matter how late it was, because his family didn’t know yet and he was afraid that his father would be unhappy, so he kept it a secret for the time being.

I woke up early this morning and quickly got up and went home.

He went back to his own yard and changed his clothes. He didn't see his personal servant and didn't take it too seriously.

As soon as I arrived at the front hall, I noticed that the atmosphere was not right. There was a person lying on the ground, covered in blood, and it was obvious that he had been beaten badly.

Looking more closely, it was his own servant.

Cheng Guanghan was surprised: "Father, what are you doing? What happened to him?"

Mrs. Cheng gave him a look, but he didn't understand it at all.

Cheng Shichuan said angrily: "You're still asking me? I'm asking you, what did you do last night?"

Cheng Guanghan suddenly realized that it was because of this matter.

He looked at the servant, who could not move, but his eyelids trembled slightly.

There is no way around this.

Cheng Guanghan knew what was going on, and said calmly, "I accompanied the housekeeper of the Qiu family to drink last night. He drank too much. He stayed in a brothel. I remembered my father's teachings and didn't dare to linger in such a place. I forced myself to go to a small inn nearby. I fell asleep as soon as I got to the door and almost fell. It was the waiter who helped me upstairs. I didn't know until I woke up this morning."

Madam Cheng took over the conversation: "I said he would. My son is such an excellent person, how could he do something inappropriate? And he certainly wouldn't have an affair with any woman."

Cheng Guanghan looked calm: "What woman? Mother, what are you talking about?"

Mrs. Cheng wanted to explain, but Cheng Shichuan's expression eased: "It's best to be sensible. Don't drink too much in the future and go home early."

"My son knows," Cheng Guanghan lowered his eyes and muttered to himself, what on earth happened?

How would my parents know? However, it seems that they don’t know the details. I have to check it carefully and be more careful.
