The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

Chapter 272

Qi Siliao left and didn't come back for several days.

Hu Luanfei sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, looking at the child in her arms, shivering with cold all over.

A few days ago, he insisted on accompanying her during the birth and refused to leave no matter what. She thought he was doing this because he truly loved her. Unexpectedly, he ran away soon after the child was born without any explanation.

Xiao Lanzi went back to report. During the confinement period, she could not enter the palace with Xiao Lanzi, so she had to let Xiao Lanzi tell Xuanyuan Yuchuan to take good care of her mother.

These days, Azhu and Jiang Shi have been very attentive and busy serving both inside and outside the house, so as not to let her get tired.

Ah Zhu felt sad when she saw that she was always unhappy, but she couldn't say anything bad about anyone at this moment. "Madam, you can't be like this every day. Look, this child is so cute. I heard from the maid who used to serve the master's family that when children are young, they are very close to their mothers. When the mother is happy, the child is happy, and when the mother is sad, the child is sad. You don't smile every day, you can't let the child learn to have a bitter face like you."

Hu Luanfei looked down at the child who looked like him, and said sadly, "This child was not what his father expected from the beginning..."

When she said this, she suddenly remembered that during her pregnancy, Qi Si Liao taught her about her pregnancy. Every word he said was full of love, and every smile he made was filled with joy. How come now...

She sighed sadly and said, "Forget it. Even without a man, I can still raise this child."

When Ah Zhu heard this, he immediately understood why Hu Luanfei was unhappy all day. Ah Zhu thought about it secretly, moved to the edge of her bed, held her hand, and comforted her, saying: "Brother Jiang Shi and I will help you, don't think too much, just rest assured and take good care of yourself during the confinement period."

Hu Luanfei knew Ah Zhu's good intentions, and at the same time, he felt sorry for Ah Zhu. Ah Zhu was so smart, so she must have known Jiang Shi's feelings for her. It was hard for Ah Zhu...

"Thank you, I will pay you..."

"Hey, hey, isn't that too formal?" Ah Zhu held her hand tightly and said, "Jiang Shi kept telling me to take good care of you. You know, I was born to serve others. If you don't mind, I will shamelessly become your sworn sister."

Hu Luanfei looked at Ah Zhu lovingly, "How could I be so worthy of having such a lovely sister? Actually, if you are willing, I would be happy to be your sister. But I have a changeable temper, and I am afraid that I may offend you someday. Please don't bear a grudge against me."

"How can that be possible!" Ah Zhu happily took out the small dress she had embroidered and handed it to Hu Luanfei, "After washing, you can put it on the child."

Ah Zhu's sincere action gradually made Hu Luanfei cheerful. The stitches on the small clothes were so fine that no traces could be seen at all. In addition, a few green bamboos were embroidered on each piece of clothing with green needle and thread.

Ah Zhu said: "I hope my child will be confident in everything he does in the future."

A glimmer of joy flashed across Hu Luanfei's originally depressed face, and her expression relaxed a little.

After thinking for a moment, she asked Ah Zhu a question: "You have good skills, how about opening a clothing store?"

The surprise on Ah Zhu's face flashed away, and he quickly returned to his usual cute and naive look. He raised his head slightly and smiled, "The rent of Beiqiu shop is expensive, and I don't have much money saved privately, and besides..."

Ah Zhu's face turned slightly red. "It will be expensive to have a child in the future, so let's just leave it like this for now."

"Oh, what do I think it is?" Hu Luanfei liked Ah Zhu from the bottom of his heart. She was round and plump and looked very blessed, so he said, "Our Menghu Mountain is also developing. Don't worry about the store. When the project under the prince is completed, I will reserve one for you."

"Really?" Ah Zhu was so excited that he forgot there was a child present. He raised his voice a little louder, and the child was startled and looked at Hu Luanfei in confusion.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..." Azhu said, lowering his head.

Hu Luanfei smiled and said, "How could I blame you?"

The two chatted in the house for a long time, and Hu Luanfei's mood gradually changed.

Three days later, Jiang Ling finally found Qi Siliao. Xuanyuan Yuchuan and Xuanyuan Yuqing came to visit him. When they learned that Qi Siliao had deserted the battlefield, they scolded him harshly.

At the moment, Hu Luanfei didn't want to see Qi Siriao, so he just came out to sit with Xuanyuan Yuchuan and Xuanyuan Yuqing for a while.

"Is mother doing well in Chengqian Palace?" Hu Luanfei forced a smile.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan said: "Father, out of consideration for our old friendship, did not hurt my mother, but the harem is about to stir up a storm again."

"Those are the adults' business. We younger generations just need to do our own responsibilities and not worry about so many things." Xuanyuan Yuqing said casually.

Hu Luanfei didn't think so: "Aniang has had a lover outside these years, and she must be resentful of Xuanyuan Li. I think Aniang will not stay in the palace peacefully as before."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan sighed, "What you think is exactly what I think. Father has been staying in Chengqian Palace a lot lately, which has caused dissatisfaction among many concubines. He has spread many filthy rumors openly and secretly. My mother doesn't like to go out or see guests, and many concubines can't stand her."

"It's better not to go out, so as to avoid being assassinated." Hu Luanfei was extremely worried, "What about my mother's old lover? Has he secretly visited my mother?"

Xuanyuan Yuchuan lowered his eyes, "On the day my mother was brought into the palace, he had already died at the hands of my father's sword. My father also ordered that his body be chopped into pieces and thrown into a mass grave to feed the wolves."

"What?" Hu Luanfei's eyes widened. "Xuanyuan Li is so cruel?"

She remembered that the man was very kind to her mother, and even though she had been with him for many years and was infertile, he took care of her without any regrets. She never expected that she would end up like this.

"I buried him in the end, and that was an explanation to my mother."

"My mother..."

"After my mother found out, she didn't cry or make a fuss. She was in a very good mood."

It's a miracle. The man you love died so tragically. Any normal person would cry their heart out. But the most terrifying thing is this emotionally stable mother.

Hu Luanfei immediately said to Xuanyuan Yuchuan: "No, you should visit her more often when you have time. I'm afraid she will do something stupid."

"I know."

Since stepping into Beiqiu's harem again, Hu Cuiwei knew that she could no longer keep herself out of trouble.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan came to pay his respects to her every day and bring her news about Luanfei. Xuanyuan Li also came every day and stayed at her place almost every night.

In the past, she disdained to be a seductive concubine to seduce the emperor's heart, and she also disdained to compete with a bunch of women for men.

But now, she had many considerations and had to face the disgust and endure a man she didn't love.

She looked at Xuanyuan Li with red eyes, her whole body trembling, "After so many years, what do you want from me?"

Xuanyuan Li trapped her in the bed like a madman, "I want you to stay with me and have children."

"No, I don't want it!"
