Chapter 498: Chapter 498 Princess of Marriage Alliance (4)_1

Breakfast was very thick millet porridge, buns stuffed with mushroom and eggs, and a few kinds of expertly pickled small pickles. Eating it was indeed refreshing.

After breakfast, Mu Zhongqing took Cai Wei, Cai Fei, Wen’er, and Wu’er, intending to return to the city. Lady Du saw them off to the entrance and instructed them a lot, then said: "Although everything here is good, it’s too far from your shops and school. We’ll stay here for just a few days to relax then head back!"

Cai Wei smiled and said: "Mother, you are pregnant now. It’s best to nurture your fetus here. The environment surrounded by green mountains and water is way better than the large courtyards in Duke An’s mansion. Why not stay here a bit longer? We are young and able to handle the daily commute!"

"Indeed, Mother, not only is the environment here excellent for you and the unborn child, it’s also beneficial for grandmother’s recovery, so let’s stay here for a few more days,"

Cai Fei also advised.

Lady Du said: "I know it’s better here, but I feel guilty that you have to commute daily."

Wen’er laughed and said: "It may look exhausting to you, but we’re having fun. You can ask Wu’er, he loves riding the carriage the most."

"Yes, mother, Wu’er loves riding the carriage the most!"

Wu’er nodded consecutively, his clear big eyes filled with sincerity.

Seeing the adorable appearance of her son, Lady Du couldn’t help but smile. She nudged his little nose and said: "Be careful on the road, make sure to learn from your teacher when you get to school, and don’t quarrel with others..."

The carriage started to move, and Lady Du’s figure became more and more distant. Cai Wei looked away from the window and smiled at Wen’er and Wu’er: "You two have been studying hard at school, have you made any friends?"

Wu’er pouted, and was about to speak, but Wen’er interrupted him, "Wu’er and I have both been studying hard, and our teacher has praised us many times. We usually stick together and haven’t made friends with others."

Mu Zhongqing said: "It’s good to study hard, but you should also learn how to get along with others. In school, if you meet peers who have similar interests, are well-behaved, regardless of whether they are legitimate or illegitimate children, you and your brother can befriend them!"

Wu’er pouted and said: "No one would"

"We understand, dad. We’ll pay attention in the future!" Wen’er interrupted Wu’er said.

"Good," Mu Zhongqing nodded with satisfaction, "If a man wants to have a secure position in society, apart from having fine character and scholarship, he should also befriend many good folks, to avoid being isolated."

Cai Wei then glanced at Cai Fei. Cai Fei is now managing their home’s fabric store, dealing with embroiderers every day, and got better at dressing up.

Today, she wore a dress made of brocade with floral and cloud patterns, butterfly skirt, with her hair in a Flying Cloud Slanting Bun, adorned with a hairpin made of silver-plated gold with pearl and jade flowers. She looked both dignified and serious, without losing the charm and elegance of a maiden, which radiated the temperament of a well-bred young lady.

"Fei’er, is everything okay at the fabric store? Have you encountered any troubles?"

Cai Fei laughed, her beautiful face even more attractive: "No, everything is going smoothly at the fabric store. Shopkeeper Chen and the shop workers are all very good, loyal and honest. They all appreciate Older sister’s kindness!"

Cai Wei responded with a simple "Oh" and leaned against the carriage wall, her eyes drifting outside the window.

Wen’er and Wu’er are doing well in school, Fei’er has everything in order at the fabric store, father is comfortable at the restaurant, mother is living at ease at home. For the entire family, the only one not doing well is her.

Unlucky. Saknu, that Savage from Liaodan, had her in his sights and even publicly wanted to marry her off with a grand ceremony. What a severe provocation! Do they still want her to live?
