Zhao Lijun clenched his fists and said indignantly, ‘Mom, Miss Hu didn’t say that previously! I don’t believe in that matchmaker. I want to ask her personally! ”

Jin Xiaojing looked at her son and scolded angrily, “Stop right there. If you still acknowledge me as your mother, stop right there!”

Zhao Lijun didn’t leave angrily. Instead, he pursed his lips and stood not far away.

“Lijun, there’s something I haven’t told you. Last night, your third uncle came to tell your father something. Back then, your third uncle accidentally bumped into the Hu family on the street. The other party took a fancy to our family and was willing to marry you because of your eldest aunt’s eldest son-in-law, Luo Cheng. The other party wanted to establish ties with Luo Cheng, so she chose to marry into the Zhao family!” Jin Xiaojing no longer hid the truth.

Jin Xiaojing persuaded earnestly, “Previously, I thought that it was fine as long as my daughter-in-law married into the family. As for what the Hu family wanted, it had nothing to do with us. But who would have thought that just as we fell out with your aunt, the other party said that she had made a mistake and wanted to get married to Zhao Yan! Son, you can’t marry such a girl! She’s too scheming. You won’t be able to live a peaceful life with her!”

Although Jin Xiaojing was proud and arrogant, she still cared about her son.

After what had happened, Jin Xiaojing actually regretted it.

Zhao Lijun felt terrible.

The cruel truth made him feel brokenhearted.

At the same time, Li Xiaoran, Luo Cheng, and the others had already arrived at Golden Sun Town.

Because they were in a hurry to go home to see their families, the group didn’t stay in town for long. After they bought a lot of ingredients, they returned to the village.

When they returned home, the fatigue from the journey dissipated.

When Shu Ruyue and Wu Qinghe came to Hele Village again, they stayed in the room they had previously stayed in.

Luo Ziyang was all smiles as he followed Luo Cheng to the study to report what had happened during this period of time.

On the farmstead’s side, the house was almost built.

The disabled soldiers who had been sent over previously had already moved into the new house and had adapted to life in the farmstead.

Three fish ponds had also been dug out in the farmstead. According to Luo

Cheng’s previous request, they were cleansed, smoked, and soaked in water.

Now that the fish pond was filled with water, they could start breeding fish seedlings.

Fish grass had been planted long ago.

In addition, the land in the barren mountain had also been cultivated. Under Li Shun’s guidance, vegetables and fruits were planted.

They had been raising chickens and ducks for more than a month. From the initial chicks and ducks, they had grown substantially.

There were a few more shops on the official road. Fortunately, those people didn’t make food, but sold other things instead.

Now, the vicinity of the official road had become like a small market.

People from several nearby villages would come here to buy and sell things. Not only that, but it was said that someone had bought a large piece of land on the official road with the goal of building an inn.

Luo Cheng asked, “Is what happened at the inn true?”

“It’s true, but we haven’t found out who’s building the inn yet. During this period of time, someone called Duan Jiu has been managing it. We haven’t seen him interacting with his boss before,” Luo Ziyang said.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and asked again, ‘What about at home? Did your parents encounter any trouble?”

Speaking of this, Luo Ziyang recalled hearing Zhao Xiu and Li Xiao Qing arguing.

“After I found out about this, I asked my buddies to investigate. The Hu family should be working in the government office. I don’t know where they found out that my brothers had recovered their status as princes, but they wanted to use the Zhao family to cozy up to me. I found out that the Zhao family’s second uncle had some dissatisfaction with my mother, so I simply revealed the news that my second uncle had offended my mother to the Hu family!” Luo Ziyang didn’t hide anything and told them what he had done.

“Oh really? What did the Hu family do afterwards?” Luo Cheng was immediately interested.

Luo Ziyang said with schadenfreude, “Speaking of which, the Hu family is also quite despicable. After knowing that Second Uncle’s family had offended Mother, the Hu family found the matchmaker to tell her that they had gotten the wrong person and that the Hu family’s daughter wants to marry Zhao Yan. Of course, when the Zhao family’s third aunt found out about this, she was so angry that she chased the matchmaker away with a bamboo broom!”

Luo Cheng asked, “How’s the Zhao family’s second aunt?”

Luo Ziyang said, “Of course he was angered by the matchmaker’s words, but he quickly recovered! On the other hand, Zhao Lijun became very dispirited after this incident. However, he deserved it. People who aren’t in their right mind can’t take on big responsibility. After meeting that girl from the Hu family, he fell for her right away. Because Mother persuaded them to ask someone to investigate before picking up the bride, he ran straight to the shop to say some nasty words to Sister Xiao Qing. That was why Sister Xiao Qing went home and quarreled with Mother!” Luo Ziyang looked down on Zhao Lijun.

When Luo Cheng heard this, he tapped his fingers on the table.

“Let Xiaoran handle this matter! However, if she needs you to do anything, just try your best to help! As for the Zhao family, you don’t have to interfere too much. Second Aunt is dissatisfied with Mother because she thinks she interferes too much! Why bother?!”

With Luo Cheng’s assurance, Luo Ziyang knew what to do.

On Li Xiaoran’s side, after returning home to pack her things, she packed some of the specialties she had brought back from the capital and sent them to her parents.

Zhao Xiu had long received the news that her daughter had returned. The reason she didn’t immediately come to look for Li Xiaoran was because she wanted her to rest well.

In the end, Li Xiaoran came over with her things, which surprised and delighted Zhao Xiu.

After nagging about many things and seeing her eldest daughter appear in front of her safe and sound, Zhao Xiu finally felt relieved.

Li Shun asked in surprise, “Xiaoran, I heard from Ziyang that my son-in-law has recovered his identity as the Seventh Prince?” When Li Xiaoran saw her father asking, she blinked at him. “Father, I’m still the Seventh Consort!”

This time, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu’s mouths dropped agape!

“What exactly is going on?” Zhao Xiu only knew that her son-in-law was someone who had been kicked out of his family. How did he suddenly become the Seventh Prince?

Li Xiaoran didn’t hide it. After all, they would choose a fief soon, so this matter couldn’t be hidden..
