My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

When Sun heard this, she glared at Hu. "How quick is she to speak? She should have at least called her."

He also said, "Grandfather, I want to go too, and take Wei Ge'er with me, so that he can see the farming and broaden his horizons. Don't forget the hardships your ancestors went through just because you were born in a marquis's mansion!"

Lu Zhenzhen couldn't help but glance at Sun. She usually looked aloof, but unexpectedly, she was very down-to-earth and had good vision when it came to parenting. She had usually looked down on this quiet second sister-in-law.

Zhao was dumbfounded. You all have excuses, but what about me?

Seeing that the old lady was somewhat moved, Lu Zhenzhen simply took the initiative to speak: "Grandpa, we are not going far anyway, just staying at Madam's farm. Bring more people, and the sisters-in-law will also come along. Then see if the brothers and sisters in the mansion are willing to go. Let's go together and treat it as a spring outing."

"If there's anything you're not used to, just send someone back."

Seeing Lu Zhenzhen speak, Lan smiled and said, "Regarding the rules, I should go out with the old lady to relax, but we are outside the city and the road is bumpy, so I dare not trouble the old lady."

"Let my daughter-in-law take the grandmothers and brothers and sisters out for a walk! Since the fourth brother is accompanying us, and we can bring some servants to guard the house and the palace doctor, I think everything will be fine."

The old lady looked around and saw that her grandchildren's wives were all looking at her with pleading eyes.

Her heart softened, and she waved her hand, "Forget it! I've figured it out. If I don't agree today, I'm afraid you guys will drown me in tears!"

"Alright, you're all young after all. It's getting boring being cooped up in this big house every day! Come on out and relax!"

"Just one thing: you all must obey Third Madam and don't act naughty! If you have a headache or a fever due to climate change, you are not allowed to resent Third Madam and Brother Yi's daughter-in-law!"

The Hu family was overjoyed, repeatedly assuring us, "Don't worry, Grandpa! No matter how foolish we are, we wouldn't be so ignorant! We can't thank Third Aunt enough for taking us there!"

After saying this, the sisters-in-law gathered together and discussed who to bring to serve and what to bring.

Lan said to Jin and Qin, "Thank you for your hard work these days, sisters-in-law. Not only do you have to serve our ancestors, but you also have to manage the household affairs!"

Jin waved her hand and said, "They are always noisy. It would be great if you could take them out and give us a few days of leisure. We have to thank you!"

Qin also smiled: "If you really want to thank us, you can bring back some local specialties for us to try."

Lan naturally agreed not to mention it.

At first, only the third room went, but now people from the first, second and third rooms all want to go, and almost all the mistresses and young masters have gone.

The scene is naturally extraordinary.

The travel plan was postponed for another two days before it was finally ready.

Not only has the mansion been extremely busy these past two days, but the Prince of Shu's mansion has also sent an apology.

The Prince of Shu's Palace was naturally generous in its generosity. The four sisters-in-law all received various types of palace satins that had just been awarded from the palace, as well as some spices and medicinal pills.

It was delivered by Nanny Lian herself.

Along with the apology, there was also news about Concubine Yu and her son.

It was heard that Concubine Yu and the Second Young Master begged the King of Shu for half a day after the banquet.

After a while, the noble lady in the palace was carried out, and it was revealed that she might be pregnant with the prince.

After a while, she brought up the second young master's marriage, saying that if Concubine Yu was not there to personally look after it, the marriage would probably be perfunctory.

Every sentence implies that the princess dislikes them mother and son and wants to torture them deliberately.

The King of Shu was originally a little soft-hearted, but for some reason he said something wrong and suddenly turned hostile.

He was furious and ordered the second young master on the spot not to interfere in the affairs of the backyard, and to go to the front to study honestly. He was not allowed to leave the house without the order of the King of Shu.

As for Concubine Yu, not only was she fined three years of monthly wages, but her house arrest was also extended.

The only time he would come out was on the second day of the Second Young Master's wedding, when he would drink tea with his wife. At other times, he would go to the Buddhist temple in the backyard to chant sutras and calm his mind.

There is no date for this house arrest, which means that as long as the prince does not give the order, Concubine Yu will have to meditate in the Buddhist temple for the rest of her life.

With this news from Nanny Lian, the old lady felt even more relieved. She had originally just wanted Hu and the others to go to the farm with her to relax for a few days and then come back.

Just tell them directly and let them play for a few more days and come back before the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of next month.

This made the Hu family and their people very happy.

April 23rd.

The weather was fine, and early in the morning, a long line of carriages formed in front of the Ningping Marquis's mansion.

After saying goodbye to the old lady and having breakfast, the group went out of the door.

The first few spacious carriages were for the masters.

The maids and old women who served were all crowded in the carriage at the back.

At the very end were boxes of clothing from each family and a carriage where the court physician rode alone.

Fu Zhiyi was at the front with his servants guarding the house.

Fu Zhijian and his brothers first sent their wives and children onto the carriage, then walked up to the front and gave Fu Zhiyi a few words of advice: "Fourth Brother, I'm leaving your sister-in-law and nephews in your care! When you have some free time in a few days, we'll go for a walk around the farm."

Fu Zhiyi didn't say much, just nodded to show that he understood.

Fu Zhijian and the others knew Fu Zhiyi's personality, so they were lucky enough to nod.

Only Fu Zhiming couldn't help but envy and said, "Fourth Brother, Grandfather still favors you. You'll be taking the Spring Examination next year, and he's letting you out to play—"

There was a hint of resentment in what he said.

Fu Zhijian glanced at Fu Zhiming. "Third brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Is Fourth brother out for fun? With so many women and children at home, wouldn't it be reassuring to have someone to look after them when they're away? You, Second brother, and I all have to report to the government office every day. How can we have time?"

"The fourth brother will take the imperial examination next year, and he's willing to take care of the women and children for us, his brothers. Instead of thanking him, you say such sour words?"

"Is there any brother like you?"

Fu Zhizhuo was also somewhat dissatisfied: "Third brother, what you said is indeed inappropriate! If someone else were responsible for safety, we would definitely not be at ease! Fourth brother would rather spend less time studying and come out to take this responsibility. How can we, as brothers, have the face to complain?"

Fu Zhiming's eyes flashed, and he immediately pretended to regret it, patting his mouth lightly. "Fourth Brother, look at my mouth! I really don't know how to speak! I really didn't mean it that way, I was just joking! It's my fault! Fourth Brother, please be magnanimous and don't make a fuss with me!"

"How about this? At worst, when you come back, I'll treat you to a meal at Shengyue Tower."

At the end, he couldn't help but reveal a painful expression.

After all, a table of fine wine in Shengyue Tower costs at least twenty taels of silver.

It was his monthly allowance for the whole month.

Fu Zhiyi glanced at Fu Zhiming coldly and said, "That's not necessary. If Third Brother really feels that I was wrong and wants me to not bother with you, then just give me that fine inkstone you got the other day."

"Fourth Brother, you really dare to speak—" Fu Zhiming was so angry that he almost jumped up.

This black-hearted Old Four, he only got the inkstone a few days ago, and I haven’t enjoyed it enough yet, so how come Old Four has taken a fancy to it?

Eh? No! Ever since he got the inkstone, he'd kept it very close to his chest, bringing it home secretly and only occasionally playing with it in the front study, never telling anyone.

How did the fourth brother know this?

I couldn't help but look at Fu Zhiyi in surprise.
