Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 489 - 489 480 Biological Mother

?Chapter 489: Chapter 480: Biological Mother Chapter 489: Chapter 480: Biological Mother The Marquis Chu had been feeling quite depressed these days. The Ninth Prince had ascended to the position of the crown prince, the balance of power within the court had become very clear after the Second Prince and The Wangs fled. The Third Prince and his party could no longer cause significant trouble, and he and Consort Sun had grown meek. Yet, the emperor did not abide by his initial promise; it was agreed that once the Ninth Prince assumed power, Princess Rong Zhao, who had been involved in a plot contrived by the Second Prince to undermine important court officials, would be sent to live in a nunnery…
Perhaps the only chance he had to completely sever his ties with Rong Zhao would come once the Crown Prince ascends the throne.

Although he could not yet sever ties with Rong Zhao, he no longer needed to bend indifferently, especially not for Mrs. Ma and The Mas who were in cahoots with the party of the Second Prince. Marquis Chu and his family would no longer hold back.

Marquis Chu paused momentarily before continuing, “As for the Mas, they are her maternal family. It’s impossible not to allow Yan’er to see them. Meeting here at the mansion is fine, but we can’t let them take her back to The Ma’s house.”

Upon hearing Marquis Chu’s emphatic words, Chen Afu was overjoyed. With the support of the elder, she would be better able to refuse. In fact, she had thought all along that even if the elders agreed to let the Ma’s take the young girl home, she would find all sorts of reasons not to allow it. Not only because she was angered by the Ma family’s previous disregard for the young girl and her mother, but also because the character and family traditions of the Ma’s were not commendable.

Marquis Chu further remarked, “As for your mother’s dowry, I will arrange for it to be transported back to the mansion tomorrow. You should find someone trustworthy to handle it.”

Having a stepmother in charge of her stepdaughter’s dowry didn’t seem quite right. However, Mrs. Huang was dispatched by Mrs. Chu. Afu agreed to have her handle it temporarily until Chu Lingxuan returned, and she could find someone to help manage it.
