Traveling through life as a widow: six sons to support her in her old age

Chapter 283 What else is hidden from her?

However, Lan Qiyan still tasted the food made by Wu You. It tasted exactly the same as before and it whetted his appetite.

"Your cooking is very good. It's delicious."

Wu You was overjoyed. Her eldest sister-in-law was good at singing and dancing, and was knowledgeable about poetry and songs. She could make plans with her eldest brother, and her third brother's wife could earn money. She only had the skill of cooking, and if she could contribute a little to the princess's mansion, she would feel less inferior.

Lan Qiyan saw her worry and said, "You don't have to feel inferior. Everyone has their own uses. It doesn't matter if you don't know anything. No one will look down on you here."

"Thank you, mother."

"You're welcome. When you have a baby, I'll give you two more shops and you can run them yourself."

Wu You was flattered. He thought he must have done something good in his previous life to have such a good mother-in-law.

At the same time, in Wujia Village a hundred miles away, Wu You's room was crowded with people. Everyone wanted to get a share of her blessings. How could she be so lucky that she could meet a noble man while digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and she was even pregnant. The eldest princess kept her so easily.

The key point is to make Wu You the legal wife, not just a concubine. Wu Qian was so jealous. Originally, she should have gone that day, but she wanted to be lazy, so she let Wu You go.

Such enormous wealth should belong to the third branch, how could the first branch snatch it away?

"Wu You's mother, you are now married to the eldest princess. Wu Wei's future is immeasurable."

"What is your aunt talking about? The more this happens, the more he should study hard. He must not lose face for his elder sister."

"If you ask me, why are you still working so hard? The princess is already planning to propose marriage and will give Wu You a shop. Then you can all move to the capital and enjoy your life."

Tian Cao shook her head and said, "Aunt, you don't understand. The more this is the case, the more we can't go."

"So you don't plan to split up?"

Tian Cao pouted, "Aunt, do you think it's still possible to divide it? In the past, when we had nothing, they didn't divide it, just to make us work. Now that Youyou can marry into the princess's mansion and marry a third-rank official, they are even more reluctant to divide it."

"Look, Wu Qian is so jealous."

"Aunt, let me tell you in secret. At that time, Wu Qian should have done that job, but she didn't want to go and insisted that we, Wu You, go. Look at the result. Fate is determined by heaven. Aunt, do you think this is true?"

"Really?"

"That's not the case. Can I lie to you?"

"Oh my god, I said that a petty and cunning person like her would never have great luck."

......

Old Lady Wu came over cheerfully, "Tian Cao, do you know when the eldest princess will come to propose marriage? Should we clean up our house? I heard that the betrothal gifts she has given for her eldest and third sons have been traveling around the capital for several times. I don't know if our house can accommodate them all."

"Mom, don't worry about this. The betrothal gifts will be taken back directly as dowry."

Old Lady Wu's face turned black. "Why? The princess wants to take him away even though she has proposed marriage. Does she think she is bullying us because we are common people?"

“What are you talking about? The dowry of the Princess of the Western Regions was prepared by the Queen, and the dowry of the Third Lady was prepared by herself. She is an imperial merchant, so she earns a lot and gets a lot.

I can't add anything to Wu You's dowry, so why should I keep her dowry? So I have already discussed with the princess and will just take 108 dowries away."

"What? Why are you looking up? Why don't you leave some for her parents? Do they think Wu You is not pregnant with a boy? I told you, bring Wu You back. I found a secret recipe for her to give birth to a boy. I guarantee that she will get a boy in one fell swoop."

Tian Cao looked at her with annoyance, "What are you talking about? The princess treats boys and girls equally, don't mix up those messy things, Wu You won't eat it, and I can't bring her out.

The princess has already sent someone to take care of her, so she doesn't need me to take care of her at all."

"You stupid guy, you might as well go with me. What the hell are you doing? You won't get any benefit at all."

Tian Cao sneered. She didn't know who was afraid of getting herself beheaded, so she clamored to sever ties with him. If her father-in-law hadn't given her money, she and her mother would have no idea how they would have gotten to the capital.

Old man Wu looked at the lively and bustling family and was very glad that he had given the mother and daughter one or two taels of silver that day. His eldest daughter-in-law had her own ideas. If it weren't for the one or two taels of silver, she would have proposed to divide the family long ago.

Wu You is a lucky child. He never thought that the Wu family could achieve a class leap in this life. The eldest princess is right. Women can also bring honor to the family.

Lan Qiyan: Is it possible that the way she advocated bringing honor to the family was by taking exams or doing business, rather than by getting married?

However, Wu You's success has provided ideas for many women, because now in the mountains and on the roads you can see girls dressed exquisitely everywhere, just to meet high-quality boys by chance.

Lan Qiyan was shocked when he heard the news. If he had known earlier, he would not have made such a big fuss for Yu Xiu and Wu You.

Girls are starting to take the initiative now.

However, this is indeed a successful case, because Wu Qian also successfully hooked up and met a nobleman from Beijing.

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Wu couldn't stop smiling. Her granddaughter, Li Dahua, is so outstanding.

Wu Qian has been acting like a big shot in the village recently.

However, having witnessed the grand scene when Wu You got married, they really didn't know what Wu Qian had to be proud of. Wasn't he just the son of a fifth-rank official?

And I heard that she is not the biological mother-in-law, but a second wife. Will a girl like Wu Qian who grew up in the village be able to make a living under her?

Tian Cao was very curious, who did Wu Qian meet?

So when I talked about this when I visited Wu You, Wu You suddenly remembered that Aunt Chu said that her good-for-nothing and gambling-addicted stepson was about to get married, and that woman was also from Wujia Village. Could it be Wu Qian?

After hearing this, Tian Cao returned to the village with a smile. So that's how it was. It seemed that Wu Qian really didn't understand who she was marrying.

Lan Qiyan has no time to listen to gossip recently because her father is here.

To be precise, he is the biological father of the original body. She doesn't understand why Lan Cunliang is still alive.

So she looked at Haodaer standing beside her and asked, "Who was the one who asked for the news at that time?"

"It's my father." Yu Ze threw the blame on his worthless father who was fighting outside without hesitation.

"How did he investigate? He was clearly alive with amnesia, how could he be said to be dead?"

Lan Cunliang, who was chewing a chicken leg, slapped the table and said, "Who died? I didn't die. They didn't beat me to death. I'm lucky. Your mother didn't beat me to death when she ran away."

Lan Qiyan suddenly looked at him, "Which mother? The biological one or the adopted one?"

Lan Cunliang was confused. "I only have one wife, and she ran away with someone else. How can I have descendants?"

Lan Qiyan feels that his CPU is burned out. What does that mean?

Is there something she doesn't know?
