Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 242 - 242 241 Mrs. Chu

?Chapter 242: Chapter 241: Mrs. Chu Chapter 242: Chapter 241: Mrs. Chu The next morning, after Chen Afu had just finished the breakfast he had prepared, he heard Qingfeng, who had just returned from a stroll outside, whispering that the old lady was not doing well. A doctor had been hastily summoned the previous night and managed to wake the old lady, but her eyes and mouth were now crooked, her body was immobilized, her speech was garbled, and she kept claiming to have seen ghosts. The doctor said that the old lady had suffered from a scare and had a stroke.

Qingfeng added, “I heard that the young master, the third and fourth young ladies have gone to the Hengshou Pavilion to attend to the old lady’s illness…” The implication was that it would be best if Chen Afu could also go there.

Chen Afu was secretly amused and admired Jin Yan’s prowess. However, he said, “The old lady certainly would not want to see me. I’ll respect her wishes and won’t impose myself.”

Only after the old lady fell asleep did Chen Shiying and Mrs. Jiang return to the main court, appearing completely exhausted. After changing his clothes, Chen Shiying went to the ancestral hall and added Chen Afu’s name to the family register.

He felt a bit thwarted. He had suggested to Chen Afu several times that she change her name to Chen Yufu, but she had not agreed. Had it been any of the other children, he would not have consulted them and would have made the change directly. But with this eldest daughter, he always consulted her kindly, not only because he loved her even though she was not by his side but also because this young lady was very assertive and had a strong personality.

Mrs. Jiang hurried to prepare for today’s distinguished guests.

Chen Afu was in her room daydreaming when Hong Feng brought in a tray. Not only was there a full set of clothing on the tray, but also a headwear made of solid gold inlaid with pearls.

She laughed and said, “Mrs. Chen asks you to dress up properly. The ladies from the Chus’ Mansion are certain to ask to meet the young ladies of this mansion.”
