Chapter 260 What a coincidence
Chapter 260 What a coincidence
Sun Wei's thoughts surged like the tide, with various ideas coming one after another.
With a bright smile on her face, she said to Fang Yiliu:
"Mother-in-law! What a coincidence!
Look, I finally got the chance to see my daughter-in-law and my lovely grandchildren today!
I didn't expect that you had just found your daughter.
What's more, your daughter happens to be my daughter-in-law.
Do you think that this is fate that brought us together despite being thousands of miles apart?
We must have a good drink later to celebrate this wonderful moment together.
Ha ha ha ha! "
When the Duke's wife heard this, her eyes instantly dimmed, as if she had lost all her vitality, and she became listless.
She slowly lowered her head, muttering to herself with endless sorrow and regret in her voice:
"Mother-in-law, it's all my fault as a mother. I actually lost my own daughter.
For the past 12 years, I have lived in guilt day and night, not knowing whether my daughter is still alive or how she is doing now.
Now that I have finally found her whereabouts, I am afraid she will not recognize me as her irresponsible mother, wuwuwu..."
After saying this, the Duke's wife couldn't help sobbing softly, tears gushing out like a dam breaking, sliding down her cheeks.
Wei Dehua, who was standing by, saw this and hurried forward to hold her shoulders, comforting her softly:
"No, no. Don't be too sad. My daughter-in-law is a filial and sensible child. How could she not understand your difficulties as a mother?
I've been through this myself, and I can empathize with what you've been through."
General Zhenbei's wife listened to Wei Dehua's words, nodded slightly to show her agreement, and looked at Chen Li with tears in her eyes.
Chen Li tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, and stepped forward and called softly, "Mother, Second Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law!"
Four women hugged each other and cried...
Wu Xuyang and County Cheng Liu were a little nervous at this time. After all, this was their first time meeting the legendary Prince!
After the two looked at each other, they said in unison: "This subordinate greets the prince!"
Jun Haoxuan nodded slightly and responded:
"Well, you're welcome, my Lords."
Then he turned to Nan Feng beside him and instructed:
"Nanfeng, take the two officials for a walk around the area.
There are still many things in Kaoshan Village that are worth your understanding and learning."
"Yes! Master!" Nanfeng responded and made a gesture of invitation to Wu Xuyang and County Cheng Liu.
Facing the Crown Prince, the actual ruler of the four southern prefectures, Wu Xuyang and the other two behaved extremely respectfully.
They were fully aware of the high status and enormous power of the man before them.
So he quickly replied: "Thank you, my Lord!
It is a great honor to be received by you personally this time. I would like to ask Guard Nanfeng to take good care of me."
After saying that, the two of them followed Nanfeng and left.
Nanfeng nodded slightly and led Wu Xuyang and County Magistrate Liu to visit the furniture factory, winery, Kaoshan Academy, paper mill under construction, etc. one by one.
Finally, returning to the Chen family compound, they visited the non-staple food processing workshop, chicken coop, duck coop, cattle, sheep and pig sheds, and stables, and also viewed Chen Qingxin's winter wheat and rapeseed experimental fields.
At this time, Magistrate Wu and Deputy Magistrate Liu were so surprised that they didn't know how to express themselves.
The areas under their jurisdiction had relatively backward agricultural and economic development, and these new things seemed like fantasy to them.
However, they were also keenly aware that this Miss Chen did have extraordinary talents.
After visiting these, they followed Nanfeng back to the Chen family compound.
At this moment, at noon, the sun shines into the Chen family courtyard, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling.
In the main hall, there are two exquisite eight-immortal tables, each of which is filled with various delicious dishes, exuding tempting aroma.
Sitting in the first seat was Jun Haoxuan, who was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament.
Sitting next to him was Wu Xuyang, with a resolute look on his face.
Next to them were County Magistrate Liu and Doctor Grandpa, who were chatting and laughing happily.
Next came the village chief Liu, who talked to everyone with a smile on his face.
Then there is Wang Dashan, who looks like a shrewd, capable and smooth fox.
Finally, there are the two brothers Chen Qingwen and Chen Qingwu, who are vigorous and full of energy.
Sitting at another table were the four Xifeng brothers and the county magistrate and county chancellor's followers, Xiao Zhengzi and Xiao Shuanzi.
Everyone sat together in a harmonious atmosphere with constant laughter.
Everyone's face was filled with joy as they enjoyed this rare time together.
In the spacious and bright main hall of the west courtyard, two exquisite and gorgeous round tables are neatly placed.
Sitting around one of the tables were eight elders or peers, including my grandmother, my grandmother, two aunts, Aunt Ding, Chen Li, Chen Qingxin and Chen Qingying.
The other table was occupied by Nanny Han, Nanny Yang, Sun Liqiao and other maids and nannies.
After everyone took their seats according to their seniority and status, the atmosphere was both solemn and lively.
At this time, Sun Wei smiled, raised her wine glass, and said to the Duke's wife:
"My dear mother, today is such a happy day!
Let us, old sisters, raise our glasses together and wish that both of us can successfully find our long-lost relatives!
cheers! "
Her voice was loud and full of joy, as if she had drunk all the years of expectations and blessings in her heart.
After saying that, Sun Wei raised her head and drank the wine in the glass, showing her generous and magnanimous side.
Seeing this, the Duke's wife quickly raised her glass and responded with a smile:
"Oh my, I'm really happy today, let's drink to our heart's content no matter what. Cheers!"
The two men drank the fruit wine in their glasses.
The moment the wine entered her mouth, the Duke's wife said with emotion:
"I never thought I would be able to be with my family in my lifetime. It feels so good."
As the two men clinked their glasses, the others present stood up and applauded.
For a moment, the entire main hall was filled with laughter and joy, and was filled with a warm and peaceful atmosphere.
Sun Wei smiled and said softly:
"From now on, we are a family!
In the future, we will need to interact more often!"
Fang Yiliu nodded repeatedly after hearing this, expressing his agreement:
"That's right! From now on we must live a prosperous and lively life."
At this time, Chen Li, who was standing by, couldn't help herself with joy. The corners of her mouth kept rising, and it was difficult to close them. She quickly raised her wine glass and said to Sun Wei and Fang Yiliu:
"Mother and mother-in-law, Xingming offers a toast to the two elders!"
The two elders were overjoyed when they saw this, and they smiled happily, and responded in unison:
"Hahahaha! What a sensible and good child! Come on, cheers!"
After that, the three of them raised their glasses and drank the wine in them.
When Aunt Ding saw that her sister had finally found her family, her joy was beyond words.
With a smile on her face, she gently picked up the wine glass and slowly stood up.
Then, she raised her glass to Fang Yiliu, Wei Dehua, Qian Lingyun and Sun Nianyun in turn...
