Chapter 288

"That was the past. Sister Chunli, I want you to forget the past and start over." Xiao Wenqing said softly, "You are only 19 years old, there is no need to spend your whole life for that philandering man. In a year or two, wait for you to forget about it." In the past, I asked a matchmaker to marry you, and let you marry a good man who is honest and honest and doesn’t mind your past, and then have children and be a normal woman.” She knew that Chun Li had a crush on her uncle at first, but she didn’t know what happened to her. After the painful first night and two years of living as a housemaid, do you still have feelings for my uncle?

Chun Li bowed her head and fell silent. After a long time, she got up and knelt down in front of Xiao Wenqing and said, "Although Miss is mean to others, she is still very kind to slaves. Madam, when slaves and maids from Xiefangyuan were taken away together, The old lady is scolding the young lady for offending Ling Tongzhi's wife and bringing misfortune to the He family, so she is not allowed to be buried in the He family's ancestral grave. I beg you to help me to let the young lady be buried in the He family's ancestral grave."

"The He family's father and son were conclusively sentenced to execution by the emperor. What does it have to do with me and Ling Tongzhi? I asked Mrs. He to try to intercede and let Mrs. He be buried in the He family's ancestral grave." Xiao Wenqing stood up with difficulty and helped Chunli up , "Your lady is gone, don't worry about the He family anymore; my uncle is fickle to women, so don't think about him anymore, think more about your future."

Chun Li nodded slightly.She knew that the uncle looked down on her, and gave up on him after the first night. The uncle was nice to her later because he tried to use the little sisterhood between her and Mrs. Ling to climb up to Mrs. Ling Tongzhi, so she was not moved, but felt that she was being used. My love for my grandpa has faded...

"Sister Chunli, stay with me, take care of your body first, and let's take your time in getting married." Xiao Wenqing said happily.She escaped death because of the precognitive dream, and because of this she caused harm to Chun Li, she felt most guilty towards her.

"Don't talk about it madam, this servant has given up the idea of ​​marrying in this life, and just wants to serve madam with peace of mind." Chun Li said.It is better to be a first-class servant girl next to the former sisters than to go out and marry.She is already a broken flower, who wants to marry her?
Xiao Wenqing knew that Chunli had a grievance in her heart, so she didn't say anything, and began to assign Chunli and Zhao's mother's affairs.Chunli is the first-class maid by her side, and she will be responsible for cleaning her dormitory from now on; Mother Zhao is still in her old profession, cleaning outside the main house and managing the little maids and rough servants.

Xiao Wenqing has always cared about Chunli, and now that Chunli is under her protection, she is very happy.She began to count with her fingers when Xiao Wenhua would return to the capital.According to the time, Wen Hua should have arrived in the capital, why hasn't she arrived yet?Is there anything wrong?
Ling Yuxuan learned that when she scolded her for thinking about things all day long, she would think blindly and scare herself. The four guards with knives he sent to Wen Hua's side were much better than the guards with knives from the barracks. They should also have the ability to send a message back.

"Rain and landslides may delay the return trip." He said, "Wenqing, if you have time, why not think about names for the children."

"Naming is the right of grandfather and father, and I have no right to it." Xiao Wenqing said, "I can only choose a nickname at most." The daughters are called Qinglan, Xuelan, and Yulan respectively. Her daughters can be arranged according to this list, or they can be named differently.

"Nick names are fine too." Ling Yuxuan smiled, "You have to give our child a catchy nickname." Just find something to distract Wen Qing.

So, when Xiao Wenqing was considering what nickname to give her son or daughter, Xiao Wenhua came back.He first went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find his elder sister.

Xiao Wenqing was very happy that her natal brother came to the capital when she was about to give birth, but she was already pregnant and no one would let her out of the mansion, so she could only ask Fuan to take Xiao Wenhua to inspect and repair the new Xiao mansion.

Two days later, Xiao Wenhua settled down in his mansion, and then went to the Imperial Academy to sell his holidays. After finishing his official business, he came to Xiao Wenqing's side again, because his marriage had to be dealt with.

"Eldest sister, my mother said that my marriage will make elder sister and brother-in-law work hard." Xiao Wenhua cupped his hands.

Xiao Wenqing immediately asked Crystal to fetch the four portraits of the girls and Xiao Wenhua that she had drawn, spread the portraits of the girls on the table one by one, and told Xiao Wenhua what she knew about them.

Xiao Wenhua looked at it and didn't feel anything special.These four girls are all the daughters of high-ranking officials from aristocratic families. They are born from concubines, and they are all selected in appearance. He, an adopted son of the Xiao family who has no family background, still ranks above them.

"Wenhua, these four girls have gentle personalities, and they are well-educated and reasonable. They meet your requirements for choosing a wife." Xiao Wenqing said, "Look carefully. I also drew a portrait of you. When you choose someone, I tried to send your portrait to the girl, if the girl likes it, we will ask the matchmaker to come over and make a kiss."

Xiao Wenhua looked at the four portraits of young girls and couldn't make a choice.

Outside the house, Haitang reported, "Ma'am, Mrs. Li has come to visit you."

Xiao Wenqing raised her head and saw her niece Cai Yujia walking slowly with a round fan in her hand.Cai Yujia, the eldest daughter-in-law of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, was diagnosed with a happy pulse last month. How could her husband's family and her husband's family allow her to visit?
