~8 min read 1,514 words

Chen Guanlou never expected that the old lady would make such a request.

He hesitated for a moment and comforted her, "The old lady will live a long life, it is too early to say these things now."

The old lady laughed, "Thank you for your auspicious words! I know my own body, the old lady has lived until now, it is already considered longevity among ordinary people, and she is a person with blessings. Even if she is gone tomorrow, there is no regret. I don't know when the King of Hell will come to collect, the funeral arrangements should be arranged. Lou Ge'er, can you do this favor for the old lady?"

"Uncle's wife is serious! I will do my best for this matter, and I will definitely bring the old lady's meaning to the Marquis."

"Very good!" The old lady was very satisfied and smiled.

Chen Guanlou didn't think much about it.

Even the best couples have more than a hundred times when they want to kill each other. Not to mention couples who respect each other like guests.

But it was clear that the old lady thought he thought too much, fearing that he would think of some things, and explained patiently: "Don't think too much, there is no contradiction between the old lady and the Marquis, and the feelings were quite good in the early years. It's just that I'm old, and I don't think about feelings or not.

The old lady just finds him annoying, an old lame man, old in age but not old in heart, thinking about things all day long, dragging the whole family of hundreds of people to accompany him to play. Fortunately, he knows how to stop and didn't act arbitrarily.

Over the years, the old lady often had nightmares, dreaming of the Embroidered Uniform Guard rushing in to arrest people and ransack the house, which was terrifying! Often awakened by nightmares, and after waking up, she couldn't sleep anymore. The old lady aged so fast, all thanks to him. It was only in the last two months that she slept a few good nights. While alive, she suffered, worrying about him every day. She didn't want to be tortured by him after death. Can you understand!"

Chen Guanlou nodded heavily, he understood completely.

If there is anyone who understands Marquis Pingjiang, it must be the person on the pillow.

The old lady didn't say anything, but said everything. Marquis Pingjiang's little thoughts, others have to rack their brains to guess, the old lady saw through it at a glance.

The old lady has great wisdom, seeing through but not saying through.

Enduring, enduring, worrying every day, watching the father and son step on the steel wire, walking more and more dangerously. Worrying about the lives of hundreds of people in the Hou Fu every day, worrying and anxious, unable to sleep or eat well, and people have aged.

Physically and mentally tortured, exhausted.

No wonder she doesn't want to be buried together after death, continuing to suffer torture.

Change to him, he doesn't want to be buried together, disgusting!

"The old lady knows that you can understand these ideas. Chen family, especially the Hou Fu, are born to know how to fight, want everything, and want more when they have it. Even girls are no exception. This kind of temperament, I don't know if it is good or bad."

The old lady sighed while talking, her heart and spirit were exhausted.

With her personality, she was suppressed by the second room back then, and it was not wrong at all.

"Everything has two sides. Strong personality, competitive, good and bad. The good side, enterprising, will not be easily bullied. Even if bullied, know how to ask for it back. The bad side, easy to become a target, as the saying goes, big trees catch the wind."

The old lady smiled and nodded, "It seems that you are more inclined to a strong personality."

"The junior indeed does not like the soft bun personality." Chen Guanlou said frankly.

The old lady hummed, "It is worthy of being a Chen family, you are passed down from an ancestor, and your personalities are almost the same. Although some people seem weak, their bones are also carrying thorns. The old lady is not saying that this personality is bad, just worried... standing too high, getting too much, the desire is hard to fill, and the future is hard to predict."

Chen Guanlou understood in his heart, the old lady is just worrying too much, thinking too deeply. A typical pessimist, thinking about everything in the worst direction.

Others think about it, she not only thinks, she also tortures herself. Tortured by these imagined tragic endings until she is physically and mentally exhausted.

He comforted: "Old lady, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, why do you have to worry about the juniors. The problem you are anxious about, you have to believe in the wisdom of the juniors, believe that they definitely have a way to solve it. Even if they can't solve it, the Hou Fu still has a way out. At worst, I will work harder then, and take a few more people away."

The old lady laughed, "It's hard for you! Chen Guanfu is a waste, and he needs you to worry about everything."

Chen Guanlou laughed out loud, "Does Chen Guanfu know that the old lady evaluates him like this?"

"Of course he knows. The old lady has scolded him as a waste more than once. This person takes face very seriously, which is not good."

"I didn't think so. Maybe he is just pretending in front of the old lady!"

"Haha... possible!" The old lady's mood was a little more cheerful.

After a while, she said again: "Bring another word to the Marquis for the old lady, the old lady heard that he made a fortune in Xiliang. You tell him, take back at least 50%. Otherwise, the concubines, illegitimate sons and daughters he left in the backyard, the old lady will send them all away. Lest they become a burden to the Hou Fu."

"Good! I will definitely bring this word. Does the old lady have any other orders?"

The old lady thought about it, "Tell him, don't think about throwing the women and children in the Northwest to the Hou Fu, the Hou Fu doesn't recognize them. Before he dies, settle those people, don't run to the capital to be an eyesore. If he dares to make me angry, and add chaos to the Hou Fu, I dare to kill. Sell all his women! As long as he wants face, he can't make things difficult for me. If he makes things difficult for me, no one will have a good time. Before dying, the old lady will also make a big one."

"The old lady will live a long life, she won't die! The Marquis will definitely arrange everything well, and won't let those people be an eyesore in front of you." Chen Guanlou comforted.

"Lou Ge'er, you are a good child, capable, and don't harm people casually. The old lady's affairs, please trouble you. When will your sister's two sons talk about marriage, you can let the Hou Fu come forward on their behalf. Guaranteed to talk about a good marriage."

"They are still young, don't worry. Read more books for a few years, temper their temperament, and it won't be too late to get married when their temperament is steady."

"You are the thoughtful one. As for your children, I expect I won't live to see them grow up. When you have time, have the Heir's daughter bring them to the capital so I can take a look at them."

Chen Guanlou nodded in agreement. "I will discuss it with the Heir's daughter, and when the time is right, I will have her bring the children back to the capital for a visit."

"You must go and fetch them yourself. If your duties aren't pressing, make the trip yourself to bring the mother and her two children; that is what shows sincerity. How can you let the Heir's daughter bring two children to the capital all by herself? It is not appropriate." The Old Madam spoke with earnest concern, terrified that he might anger the Heir's daughter into leaving and refusing to come to the capital.

Chen Guanlou was left between laughter and tears. "Old Madam, when the Heir's daughter travels, with the servants and the honor guard accompanying her, there are at least several hundred people. How could it possibly fall to me to go and fetch her?"

"She is her, you are you. You go pick them up yourself, to show sincerity. How many people are by her side, it has nothing to do with you. You can't be lazy because there are many people."

Chen Guanlou was taught, "Okay! I will write to her and ask her meaning. After she decides, I will go pick her up myself."

"Very good!" ===== CHAPTER 1641 =====
