Chapter 215 Treating Floods
A month ago, when the Holy Majesty had just issued an order to return the Yong'an Hou Mansion to the capital, Mrs. Chu's first reaction was that Chu Wanning should not be allowed to return to the capital.

In the dead of night, in the backyard of the Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Chu is changing clothes for Lord Chu.

"Master Hou, the capital city is no better than a small place like Yongzhou. If you are a little careless, you will offend people who shouldn't be offended. The big girl grew up in the countryside. In what way can she compare with Zhenzhen? From the perspective of my concubine, it is better to let her Will the big girl stay here?"

The most important thing is that she is worried that once Chu Wanning returns to Beijing, the secret she has buried for many years will be dug out.

When Mrs. Chu thought of this, she panicked.

Lord Chu frowned, "Didn't mother find a nun who was born in the palace for the big girl? I saw him a few days ago, and I learned the rules pretty well." After a pause, he continued, " After all, the eldest girl is our own daughter, she is intelligent by nature, you are worrying too much."

Mrs. Chu paused slightly when she unbuttoned her buttons, with a smile on her face, "Wanning is the daughter of my concubine and Lord Marquis, so my concubine's heart aches, but the Marquis of Yong'an has been transferred out by the Holy Lord for many years, and now she is suddenly called back to Beijing." I'm just afraid that Wan Ning, who doesn't understand the world, will cause trouble for Lord Hou." At the end, she was full of worry.

It was rare for Lord Chu to show a smiling face, "You are still caring, but this time the Yong'an Hou Mansion returned to Beijing after meritorious service, and there are father-in-law and mother-in-law's family to protect, so don't worry about it."

The Marquis of Yongning is the Yue family of the Holy Majesty today. Even after so many years, the Majesty still treats the Marquis of Yongning with great courtesy. Just because of this, Lord Chu can completely relax.

When Mrs. Chu heard the words Yongning Hou Fu, her expression changed immediately.

But she quickly covered up the gaffe again, and asked with inexplicable eyes, "Master Hou, but did that person from Luanfeng Hall make any movement?"

Lord Chu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head again, "No, the empress is still closed."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

Then letting Chu Wanning return to Beijing is not a big problem!
"Master Hou, don't worry, I will order someone to pack your bags tomorrow morning, and I will guarantee that your business will not be delayed!" Mrs. Chu hurriedly assured.

Lord Chu nodded, and pulled Mrs. Song to sit on the bed.

Silent all night.

The memory ends here.

Mrs. Chu was so angry that she wanted to drive Chu Wanning back to Yongzhou, but unfortunately she had already arrived in the capital, so this idea seemed unrealistic.

But it didn't prevent her from venting her anger. After thinking for a while, she ordered Yue Gui beside her, "You go. Warn the eldest girl, she is still outside now, let her act more restrained, don't bring the country style to the capital, and forget about embarrassing herself , don't get involved in the Yong'an Hou Mansion."

These words seemed to be very angry.

Yue Gui was stunned, a little unresponsive.

Do you really want to bring these words to the big girl's ears?
"Aunt Yuegui, please wait." Chu Zhenzhen quickly stopped Yuegui, then turned to look at the angry Mrs. Chu, and said in a slow tone, "Mother, please calm down."

"That girl is so unruly, how can I appease my madam?" Mrs. Chu said furiously.

Chu Zhenzhen sighed lightly, "Eldest sister has not been raised by mother's side since she was a child, so naturally she doesn't have a deep relationship with her mother, and she just broke the rules of the Marquis Mansion, but if mother directly orders Aunt Yuegui to go and question, Zhenzhen is afraid that the eldest My sister's misunderstanding of my mother will be even deeper!"

Yue Gui also hurriedly said, "The second girl is right."

The relationship between mother and daughter is already extremely weak. If something like this happens again, I'm afraid the rift between mother and daughter will become bigger and bigger, to the point where they can't reconcile.

Chu Zhenzhen hit the iron while the iron was hot and said: "What's more, this is outside. The Yong'an Hou Mansion returned to Beijing after many years. There must be a lot of people in the capital who pay attention to us. If this matter becomes serious, it will also affect the reputation of the Hou Mansion. , I'm afraid I will annoy my grandmother and father at that time, and I ask my mother to think twice before acting."

Mrs. Chu has calmed down this time, "If that girl can be as considerate as you, mother will be satisfied."

Chu Zhenzhen lowered her long eyelashes and smiled sweetly: "Mother is serious."

The thoughts in the eyes are complicated, and the thoughts in the mind automatically emerge from a fragment of an afternoon more than a month ago.

Speaking of that day, Chu Zhenzhen vaguely remembered that there was something she wanted in Chu Wanning's room based on the fragments that flashed in her mind for a while, and that thing could change her embarrassing situation of being a fake daughter.

So Chu Zhenzhen found an excuse, and when she learned that Chu Wanning was no longer in Shaohua Academy, she quietly came to her room.

There were a lot of calligraphy and paintings on the table, but Chu Zhenzhen didn't aim at them, she just glanced away and looked for a while, finally found what she wanted at the bottom.

Chu Zhenzhen picked it up and took a look, then glanced quickly, her eyes were as bright as the stars.

What is written on it is actually the method of curing floods.

Chu Zhenzhen didn't think much about it, subconsciously folded the piece of paper and hid it in her cuff, and finally acted as if nothing had happened, and left Shaohua Academy calmly.

Back at Fenghua Courtyard, Chu Zhenzhen's complicated mood hadn't stabilized yet, "This piece of paper must not be handed over like this." After thinking about it, she took a deep breath and simply copied a small compilation with exactly the same content on the spot.

Lord Chu was in a hurry because of the flood in Yao County. Chu Zhenzhen came to the study with the cakes she made by herself, with a reserved and generous smile: "Father has worked hard, come and have some snacks."

Master Chu calmed down and walked over, grabbed a piece of pastry and ate it, "You have a heart."

Chu Zhenzhen smiled lightly, and reached out to pour a cup of tea for Lord Chu, "Father, please drink tea to soothe your throat."

Lord Chu took it and drank it down.

Chu Zhenzhen's eyes flickered slightly, and she pretended to be unconscious and asked: "Zhenzhen sees that her father is restless, but what happened outside? Although Zhenzhen doesn't understand court affairs and cannot share father's worries, she can't bear to see father worried."

Lord Chu sighed, "The embankment in Yao County broke a while ago, and the water flowed rampantly, flooding several nearby villages. This matter is under the responsibility of the Marquis, but after so many days, the people below still can't think of it. A good way to solve the immediate predicament."

Chu Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, and she restrained the joy in her heart, "Father, Zhenzhen got a cure for flood by chance, and I don't know if it will be effective, but I just don't want father to continue to worry."

Lord Chu immediately raised his eyes and looked over, "What can you do?"

At this time, he didn't have any hope in his heart, after all, even his experienced staff couldn't find a good solution, let alone Chu Zhenzhen who grew up in the boudoir since childhood.

Chu Zhenzhen took out the things she had prepared and handed them to Lord Chu, "Father, take a look, if it really works, the people of Yao County will be saved."

Master Chu spread it out quickly, scanned it again, his eyes became brighter and brighter, "Miao, Miao, why didn't I think of this method for a long time." After speaking, he smiled and looked at Chu Zhenzhen, "You really helped me this time. Father is very busy!"

Chu Zhenzhen pursed her lips and smiled lightly, "Zhenzhen only hopes that father will not be so tired and take care of his health."

"Okay, father remember, you go back first, father has to go out for a while." Master Chu couldn't wait to tell Tan Zhizhou about this method.

"Yes, my daughter sent my father off!"
