Chapter 221: Confused

Chen Afu shook his head and said, "I don't want any of them."

Mrs. Wang said anxiously, "Ah Fu, you are already sixteen years old. Be obedient and don't be too picky. Your father and I have been helping you look for a few young people, but it didn't work. We are not afraid that they are interested in you." I am afraid that they will do something bad to Dabao. I first thought that Wei knew a lot of people and could help you, but until now she has not heard back, she must not have found the right one. "

Chen Afu said, "The worst case scenario is that I will never marry. Anyway, I still have a son called Dabao." Seeing that Mrs. Wang's eyes were red with anxiety, she quickly said, "Okay, okay, let's continue seeing each other."

After the meal, Chen Afu chatted with Mr. Wang for a while before returning to Fuyuan.

She went directly to the west room and continued making clothes for Chu Lingxuan. Around the beginning of the Shen Dynasty, Dabao came back, followed by a little tail - Miss Chu.

Chu Hanyan seemed to have forgotten yesterday's unhappiness. As soon as she came, she leaned into Chen Afu's arms and said, "Auntie, the cold noodles are delicious. My father, Grandpa Chen, and Dabao all said they were delicious."

Dabao also said, "Grandpa Chen left just now. Uncle Chu, sister Yan'er and I kept him on the carriage. Grandpa Chen also held my hand and asked me to honor my grandma and mother and go with my mother in the future. Play at his house in Dingzhou.”

Chen Afu heard what the two children meant. Could it be that his relationship with Chen Shiying was also clearly stated in front of Chu Lingxuan? She was a little uncomfortable, and she didn't want her relationship with Chen Shiying to be put on the table. Others' private discussions can be regarded as rumors, and she can completely ignore them. If it were put on the table, she wouldn't be able to deny it just by saying she doesn't. In this case, you will definitely encounter a lot of uncertainty in the future, which feels very bad.

But the two children leaned on each other, chatting softly and laughing, which made her chaotic mood relax. She put down her needlework and went to the kitchen to cook a few dishes.

When the food was served, Miss Chu Nuonuo said, "Auntie, my father is very lonely at home. Why don't you invite him to eat?"

Chen Afu smiled in embarrassment and said, "Today we didn't stir-fry too much. I'll stir-fry more some other day and then I'll treat your dad to it."

Chu Hanyan said very smartly, "It's still early, Auntie can fire a few more."

Dabao also said, "My son also thinks it would be good to invite Uncle Chu over for dinner. He should leave early tomorrow morning and I don't know when he will come back. If mother feels tired, you can ask Aunt Zeng to cook."

Seeing four round eyes looking at him, Chen Afu was helpless. It took a lot of effort to get the relationship far apart, how can we get closer again? He smiled and said, "There are no extra dishes in the kitchen. I will invite Mr. Chu to eat later when there are more dishes."

After the meal, the little girl very thoughtfully took Dabao with one hand and Chen Afu with the other and walked toward the gate.

The sky was still bright at this time, and the sunset in the west covered half of the sky. The spring breeze is warm and makes people feel very comfortable. The three of them went out hand in hand. Chen Afu was pulled and walked eastward, followed by Mother Song and two nurses.

As soon as they turned around the wall of Fuyuan, they saw Chu Lingxuan standing next to a big locust tree between Tangyuan and Fuyuan.

He also saw Chen Afu and the other three. He pursed his lips into a straight line and stood there with a sullen face and hands behind his back without moving.

Chu Hanyan became sad when she saw that her father was not only not walking towards her with a smile as usual, but also angry. She thought her father was angry with her.

She let go of Chen Afu and Dabao's hands and ran towards Chu Lingxuan. While running, he choked and said, "Daddy, don't be angry with Yan'er, daddy, don't be angry with Yan'er."

Chu Xuanling felt embarrassed after hearing what his daughter said. He walked forward and picked her up and said, "Dad is not angry with Yan'er, he is just anxious to wait for his daughter."

Chu Hanyan was relieved when she heard that her father was not angry with her. She burst into laughter and whispered into his ear, "Auntie said that in the future, the family will buy more food, and she will invite father to Fuyuan for dinner."

Chu Lingxuan blushed a little and said angrily, "In the eyes of my daughter, is daddy so greedy?"

Chu Hanyan hugged his neck and giggled.

Chu Lingxuan originally wanted to carry his daughter back to Tangyuan, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the beautiful figure not far away, and walked over unsatisfactorily.

He came to Chen Afu, looked at Chen Afu with a sullen face and bright eyes. He was so oppressive that even old-skinned Chen Afu blushed and lowered his head.

After a while, Chu Lingxuan said coldly, "Mr. Chen had a drink with me at noon, and we had a very pleasant conversation. Mr. Chen has a good reputation and a good official reputation. Although I have not had much contact with him, I still think he is worthy. The 'gentle gentleman' that people praise is different from his mother."

Chen Afu raised his head and opened his mouth but said nothing. She didn't know what Chu Lingxuan meant by what he said, and she didn't know what to say.

Chu Lingxuan added, "I'm going back to the camp tomorrow, and I may have to go out of town again in a few days. Yan'er will have to trouble you to take care of her again."

Chen Afu said sincerely, "It's not troublesome." He quickly added, "I like my sister."

A slight smile appeared on Chu Lingxuan's lips, and he said softly, "I also like Dabao, and..." He was too embarrassed to say that word in front of the children. After a pause, he said, "With you, I don't have to worry about Yan'er anymore. I can feel at ease outside as long as I want. Thank you." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Tangyuan.

Chu Hanyan was held by her father, grinning and waving to Chen Afu and Dabao. As they approached the gate of Tangyuan, the little girl giggled at Chu Lingxuan again and said, "Dad, aunt and uncle have been watching us, and Dabao is still waving to us."

Although she could express her meaning now, her speech speed was still slow. Before she finished speaking, she was carried into the gate of Tangyuan by her father.

Chen Afu stared blankly at the big and small disappearing at the gate of Tangyuan, still in a daze.

Dabao looked up and asked, "Mom, Uncle Chu just said that he likes me, who else does he like?"

Chen Afu said faintly, "Of course it's Sister Yan."

"Oh, that's right." Dabao said, and pulled Chen Afu's hand and said, "Mom, we can't see them anymore, let's go home too."

"Yeah." Chen Afu seemed to have just reacted, and pulled Dabao and walked home quickly, with big steps so big that Dabao had to jog all the way.

Chen Afu felt that she was useless. She had lived two lives, and she was so hurt by love in her previous life that she vowed to stay away from the second generation of officials, and set a low standard for finding a man in this life. But his smile and a confession that was not sure could make her feel at a loss.

At night, Jin Yanzi and Zhuifeng did not come back with a large group of birds. The bird cages under the corridor were empty and the yard was silent.

The croaking of frogs in the distance and the slight snoring beside the pillow reminded Chen Afu that she had traveled to the ancient countryside and that she had a son.

Chen Afu lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep for a long time. In front of her, Chu Lingxuan and Liu Xudong appeared alternately, making her very, very panic.

She always knew that the right thing to do was to stay away from Chu Lingxuan, but she couldn't leave Chu Lingxuan completely in her current situation. On the one hand, Miss Chu, and on the other hand, she and her family could not leave the shelter of Tangyuan, and she couldn't completely offend Chu Lingxuan.

However, although she insisted and avoided, she was still attracted by Chu Lingxuan step by step. She was afraid that she would fall into it completely. She was afraid that she would fall in love and be abandoned, just like in her previous life...
