Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family-Chapter 443 - : Joy of Moving to a New Place
Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Joy of Moving to a New Place
This scene caused Prefecture Princess Luo’s hands to nearly tear the embroidered handkerchief she was holding into two pieces.
How could her younger sister’s personal maid be subject to punishment by her elder brother?
His actions were nothing more than a warning to her that he could crush her followers at any time!
“Elder Brother is too serious. Yesterday was Lantern Festival, and Thirteen accompanied Auntie around the lantern market for a while. Later, Thirteen was really tired and went to rest with Auntie.”
Next to her, Liu Sisi also hurried forward and confirmed this: “It was Auntie who failed to protect the Prefecture Princess. The Prefecture Princess just accompanied Auntie to have fun for half a day, and some schemers took advantage of this opportunity. It’s really… it’s really…”
“Auntie, don’t blame yourself. This matter is not your fault.”
As Prefecture Princess Luo spoke, she walked over to the unconscious maid on the ground and looked down.
“Since this Lan’er took advantage of being bestowed by the Princess Consort, she not only disobeyed me, but also threw tantrums. When I punished her with ten slaps to the face, she fled from me. Considering she was bestowed by the Princess Consort, I might as well bring her back to the prince’s mansion and let the Princess Consort dispose of her!”
You think you can take away this lowly maid’s life at will? Humph! You’re not qualified!
“Indeed, only the Princess Consort should handle this!”
Heir Luo’s eyes flickered, and immediately spoke with a righteous tone: “It turns out that everything was caused by this lowly maid’s mischief. Sister, you must not be angry with Elder Brother. Forgive me.”
Prefecture Princess Luo smiled shyly: “Elder Brother is too serious, how can younger sister dare to take it!”
The siblings talked back and forth for a long time. Until the imperial physician arrived with a letter, Heir Luo led his followers to withdraw from the scene.
As soon as Heir Luo’s followers left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
What had just happened was too thrilling!
If they had arrived a little later, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
“Ye Lei, are you alright?”
Originally standing in place, Liu Sisi only rushed over at this moment and directly plunged into his arms: “You are the uncle of the Young Master Heir after all. How can you be so impulsive to kill him? What about grandmother’s face? What about stepfather’s face? This is really…”
As she spoke, she whispered in Di Yelei’s ear: “Xuan’er has safely returned.”
Di Yelei gave a nearly imperceptible nod. The husband and wife had naturally developed a tacit understanding after all this time and he spoke with a pained expression.
“Sisi, don’t talk nonsense! Anyway, Young Master Heir is Young Master Heir, we are just ordinary people, we can’t compare with him! Don’t say anything more.”
These words left Prefecture Princess Luo with a shamefaced expression: “I’m to blame for the lax supervision, Thirteen apologizes to Uncle and Auntie here.”
As she spoke, she performed a light bow.
“Prefecture Princess, please stand up quickly, don’t break Sisi’s heart.”
Liu Sisi hurriedly went up to support Prefecture Princess Luo, and secretly gave her a meaningful look.
Prefecture Princess Luo nodded imperceptibly: “After playing for a night yesterday, I am really exhausted and want to go back to rest. Auntie, why don’t you go back together?”

“I’m afraid that won’t be possible, as Father is still waiting in the carriage. We’ll visit another day.”
The two of them talked for a while and then said goodbye and parted ways.
Meanwhile, Di Yelei was expressing his gratitude to his colleagues one by one: “I’m really grateful for everyone’s help. Thank you all! In the future, if any of you ask for something, I will definitely do my best to help, as I promised!”
“Brother Ye Lei, you are too serious.”
One of his colleagues patted his shoulder casually: “We all eat from the same bowl. If the bowl spills, none of us will escape. Don’t you all agree?”
Everyone naturally chimed in and agreed.
“Since everyone agrees, we can’t let him off the hook so easily! In any case, Brother Ye Lei must treat all of us to a good drink. Don’t you all think so?”
His words immediately received unanimous support from the crowd.
“Fine! Once Lord County Magistrate starts his seal, I, Di Yelei, will treat everyone to a good meal! We’ll drink till we’re drunk!”
Di Yelei said with a heroic spirit.
“Great! We’ll all look forward to your feast! By then, you must not say that you’re bad at drinking and avoid getting drunk!”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry! This time it’s definitely drink till we’re drunk. If anyone dares to cheat at the banquet table, from now on they’ll have to squat while peeing like women…” At this, everyone burst into laughter.
Everyone continued to chat and laugh for a long time before they all said goodbye and went home.
Zhang Peng, Di Yelei, and the others walked back. Seizing the opportunity when no one was paying attention, Di Yelei could no longer hold back his curiosity and whispered to Liu Sisi beside him.
“Sisi, what’s going on?”
“It’s really nothing. It’s just that Xuan’er and the Prefecture Princess were saved by someone. I’ll tell you more in the evening.” Liu Sisi said casually and did not elaborate.
As long as there was no problem!
Di Yelei nodded and didn’t continue to press for more information.
Upon finally returning to the carriage parking area, sure enough, Di Xuan was sleeping soundly in the carriage, snoring softly.
Meanwhile, dad was sitting on the front of the carriage, chatting with the coachman nearby, his face filled with joy.
It had been a long time since Di Yelei saw his father with such a radiant smile on his face.
When the carriage went back, Elderly Mr. Di insisted on sitting at the front. Liu Sisi and Guihua inside were falling asleep, dozing off.
The carriage didn’t return to Upper Village but stopped in front of a shop instead.
Di Yelei looked back at the people getting out of the carriage and said, “The auspicious time is at noontime today. We just made it in time!”
As he spoke, he opened the door to the shop.
Liu Sisi and the others took a look inside, finding that it had already been cleaned and even the furniture was ready. All they had to do was lay out the quilts, and it would be ready for people to live in.
They were extremely surprised!
“I can’t believe that the people Old He sent were so diligent! They even made the inside neat and tidy!”
Di Yelei said with astonished delight, “It was Old He who helped us find the shop, and after finishing the tenant contract, he said that he would help us clean the house. It’s like paying his meal money for next month in advance!”
Everyone laughed at this!
“Now dad can eat without worrying about having no one to talk to.”
Liu Sisi was also very happy.
Di Yelei quickly went out and in a short while, brought back a big stack of bedding.
He also went out to buy some firecrackers, lit them outside the shop at the auspicious time, and the loud crackling of the firecrackers awakened the drowsy people inside. The neighbors around were also woken up and gathered to congratulate them.
