Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2179

After this incident, Shi Anrou was scared to death and believed even more that "Empress Dowager Huizheng" could save her life.

A few days later, the person who came to pay the rent was no longer Du Hui, but Yu Shu, his servant. "Miss Shi, the master said that he has returned to his farm in Yanxing Mountain. He asked you to rest assured that the rent will be paid two years in advance, and the rest will be paid according to market conditions."

Following the market, the contract was signed at the market price. No one owed the other anything, the money and goods were exchanged, and the past was forgotten. Shi Anrou had escaped a disaster and cherished her life even more.

Maybe it was because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Shi Anrou was like a piece of taffy, always sticking to Shi Anxia and following him everywhere.

She was afraid that Shi Anxia would despise her, so she whispered, "Xia'er, don't think I'm annoying. I need to share in the blessings from you." As she spoke, she leaned over to her and took a deep breath.

Shi Anxia laughed and scolded her for being sick, "You're becoming more and more unruly."

The sisters are inseparable and work together to dispel rumors of discord.

Shi Anrou also loved Sansan, and gave all the good things that she treasured and was reluctant to use to the child.

Although San San didn't act with much thought, he knew that his aunt was not actually rich, so he happily picked up some not-so-valuable things and returned the rest.

Anxia's time in the North Wing was running out, and her schedule was becoming increasingly tight. Every day, she was busy with carriages and horses, either attending a welcoming banquet or a farewell banquet.

Yu Sujun held a banquet at his new residence in Tiema City that day, mainly to invite Shi Anxia and his wife, and the rest of the guests were people he knew well. Of course, Xiao Yunde and his wife were also among them.

As soon as the sun rose, Yu Sujun was waiting in front of the gate looking out.

Shi Chengyi, wearing a newly tailored suit, walked up to her and said with a smile, "How can you come to the banquet so early? You should go inside and rest first. I'll send someone to call you when the people arrive."

Yu Sujun shook her head, "I haven't seen Xia'er for a long time. I want to see her at first sight."

Shi Chengyi had no choice but to order the servant to bring a rattan armchair and place it beside the corridor pillar.

Yu Sujun sat down with her skirt tucked in, but couldn't help looking around. Her eyes swept over the newly painted red railings and the freshly sprinkled water in front of the steps.

The Shi family's house was newly built, and every plant and tree showed meticulous care. There were new green screens covering the window frames, new bronze wind chimes hanging from the eaves, and even a few lush green pennyworts planted in the cracks of the stone steps.

When Anxia got off the carriage with the help of Cen Yuan's arm, and looked at the new house in front of him, he remembered a saying: To see the situation of a family, you don't have to look at the wealth and treasures in the house, just look at whether the flowers and plants in the courtyard are full of vigor and whether the owner has a smile in his eyes.

When she saw her great uncle and great aunt coming towards her, she knew that they were living a very comfortable life.

Originally, An Xia had invited Yu Sujun when she went on tour to various countries, but she couldn't leave.

Yu Sujun is a grandmother now and needs to worry about her grandson.

Shi Chengyi is also very busy now. He has made achievements in Tiema City and was promoted to the Minister of Justice.

He had climbed to this position with the help of his niece's scheme, then fell from this position, and now he is climbing up again with his own efforts.

The hardships involved are beyond words, but the remarkable achievements are obvious to all.

Shi Chengyi has aged a lot, but he is more confident and calm than before.

Everyone exchanged greetings in a lively atmosphere and had endless conversations.

The laughter in the courtyard grew thicker as guests arrived one after another. Xiao Yunde and his wife made a low-key appearance and were the last to appear.

The two men were dressed simply, as if they had washed away all the worldly desires, and were even more low-key than ordinary wealthy people.

Yu Sujun bowed to Xiao Yunde and Tang Chujun according to etiquette. But the next moment, she asked warmly, "Sister Chujun, are we still the best in the world?"

Just this one sentence eliminated all the barriers that had arisen from not seeing each other for so many days.

The banquet was held in the Begonia Hall. Although the men and women sat at separate tables, they were all old friends, so they didn't have to use the formality of having a screen to separate them.

Interestingly, when the Liang State's retired emperor arrived in the northern wing, he was still the true son-in-law of the emperor.
