Chapter 152: Not intentional

After the people left, Mrs. Chen began to assign houses.

The eldest son lived in the east wing, and the second son lived in the west wing. This was the rule.

The daughters should live in the backyard, but the courtyards in the south of the Yangtze River were different from the courtyards in the north. There was only one main hall and two flower halls in the front yard, which could not be lived in. The resting side room was for servants.

They could only live in the backyard.

Mrs. Chen let Gu Fei live in the main room on the west side, and the side room on her side was for Lanzhi and Lian’er.

Everyone had no objection.

Only Gu Erlang suddenly said: “Mother, aren’t there two side rooms? Why don’t you let each of them live in a room?”

He felt that it was unfair for Lanzhi and Lian’er to live together. Lanzhi was a daughter of the Marquis’s mansion, and Lian’er was just a country girl.

Besides, the side room was a little small.

Lanzhi blushed and said anxiously: “It’s fine for me to live with Lian’er.”

She knew that Gu Erlang wanted to live more comfortably, but she was just a maid bought by Gu Fei. It was good enough to have a house to live in. How could she dare to be picky?

Mrs. Chen glanced at Lanzhi, and then glanced at Gu Erlang indifferently: “I’ll keep that side room for things.”

“That’s it, go pack your bedding and luggage, and put things in place.”

Gu Fei took out the messy things that Mrs. Chen had asked her to stuff in the space when Lian’er and Lanzhi went out of the house.

The big water tank, broom, dustpan, and uneaten pickled meat were put in the front yard kitchen.

The cradle that Xiao Cao slept in when she was a child, the sewing basket, rags, herbs, and all kinds of essential items for home and travel were all put in the side room by Gu Fei.

At this time, a small blue and white porcelain bottle rolled out of Xiao Cao’s cradle.

Gu Fei picked it up and held it in her hand for a moment, then she remembered that this was the golden medicine that Su Chen sent Chen Hu to give her that day.

Gu Fei was slightly absent-minded for a moment, thinking of the handsome young man.

She doesn’t know if his injury has healed.

At this moment, in a courtyard of the Prince Qi’s Mansion.

Xiao Min grabbed Su Chen’s hand: “Chen’er, are you still angry with your mother?”

“Mother told you that I had no choice but to not wait for you in the city at that time. Those refugees were too scary.”

Su Chen pulled back his hand, lowered his eyes, and said lightly: “Mother thinks too much. This son only wishes mother peace, how can I blame you.”

Xiao Min wiped the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief: “Mother originally thought that with the guards, you would be fine.”

“Mother didn’t think about the official documents, I didn’t know that without them, you couldn’t live in the official post, and didn’t think your leg——Woo woo woo…”

Su Chen lowered his eyes: “Mom, my leg is fine, the doctor has checked it, and said it will be recovered in about a month.”

“It’s getting late, Mom should go to rest early.”

“You said you don’t blame Mom, Mom just said a few words, you want to drive me away——Woo woo woo, I didn’t mean to leave you, I was just too scared.”

“Your uncle also scolded me severely, I know I was wrong.” Xiao Min cried.

Su Chen rubbed his forehead: “Mom, don’t talk about this anymore, don’t cry, I’m fine, I don’t blame you.”

He called the maid outside, “Chun Ying, help Madam go back.”

The maid at the door lifted the curtain and came in, helping Xiao Min up.

Xiao Min leaned on the girl, walked two steps, and turned back: “I just heard that your cousin, the prince, is back. If you feel bored in the house, go find him and play.”

Su Chen nodded: “This son knows.”
