Blissful Days After Widowhood - Chapter 352

Mrs. Chen was looking at the portrait in a trance. When she heard the words, her first reaction was, “Huh? What’s wrong?” 

She and Gu Yin were slightly stunned. 

Gu Yin immediately said, “Your nickname was this, right?”

Mrs. Chen closed her eyes and tried to recall, “It seems to be, but it doesn’t seem to be. Sorry, I really can’t remember.” 

Nan Nan was a common nickname for girls in dialects. 

That alone couldn’t prove anything, so Gu Yin continued, “Aunt and Uncle’s Ge’s stall is at the best location on the pier, selling buns and noodles… Well,  the family also has a greedy nephew called Ge Dalong…” 

Suddenly, a fragment appeared in Mrs. Chen mind. On the bustling pier, when she was helping her parents when she was young, a boy about her age slipped over to look through her money box. 

Her parents were busy beside her, so she took the little boy’s hand off the box and scolded him angrily, “You are not allowed to take my family’s money!” 

The boy pushed her down to the ground in a dignified manner and said, “What’s yours and mine? Grandma said that I am the only male in the family and everything is mine!” 

She sat on the ground and cried, and the boy slipped away with a guilty conscience. 

Her mother hurried over to pick her up and said warmly, “Mother’s good girl, what’s the matter?” 

She sobbed and told her what happened. 

Her mother coaxed her a lot and even complained to her father, “Dalong is a boy, so why bully our girl?” 

Her father also looked distressed and said helplessly, “Dalong was raised arrogant, but it’s not right to bully Nan Nan. When the stall is closed, I will go to his parents to talk about it.” 

Mrs. Chen came back to her senses, nodded, and then burst into tears. “I’m ashamed to say these years my impression of my parents is getting more shallow by time, but what I remember is a cousin named ‘Dalong’, who bullied me because of his strength when I was a child…” The dock, the food stall, and the greedy cousin, it all fit right.

Saying that, Mrs. Chen got up and gave Gu Yin a deep salute, “This time, I have accepted Madam’s careful thoughts. No matter what Madam wants me to do in the future, I will be ruthless and dare not complain.” 

Gu Yin helped her up and said, “Madam doesn’t have to be so polite, it’s just not for you, but for the uncle and aunt of the Ge family. They have taken care of me before and this is what I should do.” 

Mrs. Chen turned back, wiped her eyes, and then asked, “Where are they? I’ll…” 

Speaking of which, Mrs. Chen paused. Although she was the wife of a Duke, she actually had no real power in the mansion. Even after she knew that the old couple of the Ge family should be her parents, she had no real power or confidence to pick them up. 

Not to mention that Mrs. Qin was in a fit of anger. She came out this time by fluke, and she had to go back to the small yard where she would be grounded.

She was afraid that Mrs. Qin would not want Feng Yu to have such a family. It would be good if he didn’t interfere, let alone help. 

Feng Yu said, “Don’t worry, mother, I’ll find a way for this, and I’ll pick up my grandfather and grandmother.” 

They were both seeking a living under Mrs. Qin’s hands, and it was not easy. Feng Yu was still a ten years old child. 

Gu Yin said, “Don’t worry, I will handle this matter, it will not be difficult to call them over. My mother has a best friend, and her son is going to take the Beijing Imperial Examination in the beginning of the year, and he will leave soon. We can send a letter and ask them to bring Uncle and Aunt Ge with them.” 

Mrs. Chen became more embarrassed. “I have to trouble your family for this kind of thing.” 

Gu Yin said it was okay, and took the handkerchief to wipe away her tears, and winked slyly at her, “Anyway, since you have accepted my thoughts, let me be a good person to the end. I’m not a good person for nothing…” 

Mrs. Chen was just waiting to hear what kind of reward she wanted, but Gu Yin continued with a smile, “Aunt Ge’s stewed ribs have a unique flavor. I haven’t eaten it for a long time, so I should get a good meal from her, right?” The melancholy was swept away.

After the show, Mrs. Chen led Feng Yu out of the mansion, and Gu Yin followed them out. At the door, she ordered the servants with a livid face, “Be alert, if you don’t inform who came, see if your skin isn’t peeled!” 

Wu Qingyi came back at that moment.

Hearing her reprimanding the servants, he immediately got off his horse, swept his majestic eyes across the crowd, and asked, “What happened?” 

It was acting, but the servants were still shaking as his gaze fell on them. 

Gu Yin said, “Let’s go into the house and talk.” 

After entering the house, Gu Yin laughed and said, “It’s something, but it’s a good thing!” 

She told him about assumption that Mrs. Chen was the lost daughter of the old couple of the Ge family, but it turned out to be true. 

Only then did the expression on Wu Qingyi’s face loosen. He shook his head and smiled, “I thought someone was bullying you.” 

Mrs. Wang was beside her and asked Wu’an to write to Mrs. Xu.
