Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Mrs. Liu and Old Lady Lu like chrysanthemum tea very much, while Tiantian likes rose tea.

"Just drink as much as you like. Granddaughter, there are plenty of them."

Tiantian exclaimed, it turns out that fresh flowers can be used to make tea and it tastes very good.

"Sister, this is something you can think of. It tastes pretty good."

Lu Qingqing smiled slightly and told her that there are many other flowers that can be used to make tea, but the effects are different.

Old Mrs. Lu was also very interested in this scented tea, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren chatted about it for a long time.

"By the way, Tiantian, your wedding gown should be embroidered by the palace, so I will ask the embroiderer in the shop to embroider a few sets of casual clothes for you."

Tiantian slowly stood up and was about to thank her sister when she was stopped.

Lu Qingqing pretended to be angry and scolded her. Liu tried to smooth things over and Lu Qingqing let her go.

The two sisters smiled at each other.

In the evening, Lu Qingqing and her husband returned to Prince Chen's Mansion with their children.

Xia Yun was the first to come forward. Seeing her resentful look on her face, Lu Qingqing ordered the wet nurse to take the children back first.

"Yes!"

Seeing the three wet nurses holding the children and turning away, Lu Qingqing withdrew her gaze and asked Xia Yun what caused that expression.

"Master, the news in the capital is spreading... saying..."

Xia Yun bit her lip, not knowing what to say. Lu Qingqing frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "What?"

"It is said that the master is jealous and does not allow the prince to take a concubine." After Xia Yun said this, he glanced at Chu Haochen who was standing beside him.

Hearing Xia Yun's words, before Lu Qingqing could say anything, Zi Yao behind him angrily said, "Who is so bold that he even dares to make up stories about our master?"

Lu Qingqing turned her head to look at Chu Haochen beside her, only to see that his face was gloomy and he said in a cold voice, "Leave this matter to him to handle."

Lu Qingqing raised her eyebrows and nodded slightly. She had to be busy with things in Shili Village in the next two days and had no time to dwell on these things. She could tell who spread the news with just her big toe.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Chu Haochen then sent her back to her room and turned to walk towards the study.

He called Mo Er over and whispered a few words to him, then Mo Er turned around and left the study with a serious face.

Chu Haochen walked to the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the night sky outside. The dark clouds covered the moon. It seemed that it would rain soon. Thinking of this, Chu Haochen turned around and left the study.

At this time, Lu Qingqing was packing things to take to Shili Village.

"Okay, Biyun, go down and have a rest. We have almost collected all these."

"It's the master."

Biyun bowed and then she asked her master hesitantly whether she could bring Rui Niang with her when going to Shili Village this time.

"Well, take it with you. We will be gone for a longer time this time."

Biyun leaned over happily and left the room.

A moment later, Chu Haochen pushed the door open and walked in slowly. There was a sudden thunder outside. He frowned as he closed the door and looked at the night sky, which was very dark.

"Is it going to rain?"

Chu Haochen nodded slightly and said that the rain would come soon.

Lu Qingqing handed Chu Haochen a set of clean underwear and urged him to wash up first.

When Chu Haochen turned and walked towards the inner room, it suddenly started raining outside. Hearing the lightning and thunder outside, Lu Qingqing was worried about the children and whether they would be scared.

She stood in front of the window, looking at the stormy night sky outside, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

Just when she couldn't help but want to go to the children's yard to take a look, Chu Haochen slowly walked out in his inner clothes.

"Qing'er, what are you going to do?"

"I'm worried that the children will be frightened by this thunderstorm."

Chu Haochen walked forward and hugged her as she put on her coat, and whispered in her ear, saying it was okay, as the wet nurse and maids were in the yard.

Lu Qingqing was pulled by Chu Haochen to rest, and her eyes kept looking out the window.

It rained heavily all night long, and one morning the streets of the capital were washed clean by the heavy rain.

After breakfast, Mo Er came to the front hall and reported to his master who was chatting with the Princess, saying that he had found out that the rumor was spread by Xu Miaolan, and that Chen Lanhui was also involved.

Lu Qingqing sneered. These people were really courting death. She had almost forgotten about Chen Lanhui, but now she popped up again.

Chu Haochen was about to give an order to Mo Er when she stopped him and whispered in Chu Haochen's ear. After a moment, Chu Haochen smiled sarcastically and immediately ordered Mo Er to do something.

It was not until Mo Er left the room that Chu Haochen asked, "How did Qing'er know all this?"

"I heard Xia Bing talking about this the last time I went to the shop."

She picked up the scented tea on the table and took a sip, then raised her eyes and told Chu Haochen that everything in the capital had been dealt with, and then she set off for Taoyuan Town.

Chu Haochen held her hand, smiled slightly and nodded.

......

At this time, in a private room of a teahouse in the capital, Xu Miaolan and Chen Lanhui were sitting together drinking tea.

"Ms. Chen, I don't know why you..."

Chen Lanhui poured Xu Miaolan a cup of tea and said with a half-curled smile that she just had some grievances with Princess Chen and she only wanted to make her unhappy by adding fuel to the fire.

Xu Miaolan lowered her eyes with a hint of sarcasm in them. Soon she raised her head and looked at her with gratitude:

"Thank you Miss Chen for this time. I... I am just angry. Why would such a graceful man like King Chen be beheaded by a fierce woman..."

At the end of her words, Xu Miaolan paused, a hint of anger appeared on her face, and her watery eyes looked straight at Chen Lanhui.

Yizhu behind Chen Lanhui instantly understood that Miss Xu was just jealous and wanted to use her daughter to attack the Princess of Chen. It would be even better if she could use the rumor to get her into the Chen Palace.

She was really afraid that the young lady would lose her mind for a moment. Didn't she remember what happened last time? The master had already told the stepmother to help the young lady find a husband and not to allow her to resist. If she resisted, she would be thrown into the family temple and live out her life in solitude.

"Miss... Madam asked you to go back early today because she has some things to do at home..."

Yizhu carefully reminded the young lady not to continue chatting with Miss Xu. It was obvious at first glance that Miss Xu was a scheming person and didn't want to show her superficial appearance.

When Chen Lanhui heard Yizhu's words, her brows slightly frowned and her face immediately turned cold. She said "hmm" coldly, but soon smiled at Xu Miaolan and said that she had some things to do at home, so she didn't stay any longer.

"Then Miaolan will not keep Miss Chen any longer."

After saying that, they stood up and exchanged a few words before sending Chen Lanhui away. Xu Miaolan behind him slowly walked towards the private room next door.

Inside, Madam Xu and her legitimate daughter were drinking tea. They sneered at the back of Chen Lanhui as she left the window.

"Mother, is Miss Chen reliable? Don't let your daughter lose more than she gains. She will enter the palace in the future, so don't let your daughter's future be affected..."

Mrs. Xu patted her daughter's hand gently to comfort her, telling her not to worry. Even if someone investigated, they would only find that the concubine and Miss Chen had colluded to do it. She would then step forward to teach that bitch Xu Miaolan a lesson.

If it succeeds, that bitch will be lucky, and their mansion will be able to cooperate with Prince Chen's mansion in the future...

Xu Miaolan heard everything that happened outside the door clearly. The maid behind her pulled her sleeve angrily.
