After being divorced for three years, the bad husband brought his son to ask for forgiveness

Chapter 39 Madam, the General is Back
"Flower~hahaha~~~"

After just a nap in the newly bought house, Xiao Xun'er regained his spirits and was full of curiosity about the new house. He ran around the yard, followed by a maid and a servant. Yan Chaonian watched him with a smile for a while and then turned to the front yard. He had just moved in and there were still many things to take care of.

Manager Wu and his wife left home early in the morning. In the afternoon, the owner of the porcelain shop came in with a cart of goods. Although the previous owner left some tea sets and bowls and chopsticks, the house was already second-hand, and they couldn't use second-hand pots, pans, and utensils. They still had to be a little picky.

"Madam, I am Zhang Liu, the manager of the Shangpin Porcelain Shop in the city. This morning, your housekeeper Wu asked me to bring some porcelain for your inspection."

There are complete sets of tea sets, porcelain bowls and plates, chopsticks and spoons, vases of various styles, fruit plates and other items.

Yan Chaonian picked up the teacup and examined it carefully. Both the pattern and the texture were good. It was translucent in the sunlight. "It's good."

Shopkeeper Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. The manager in the morning only asked for good ones, not too good ones. They brought three models with different prices, and it seemed that the most expensive one was about to be sold.

"I don't want this set of tea set with longevity patterns, but I'll keep the rest."

Yan Chaonian didn't think too much about it. Things like tea sets need to be available in the front and back yards, so it is necessary to buy a few more sets. He might need to entertain guests in the future, so he would need some supplies.

Manager Zhang led his men to unload the goods, and the owner of the cloth shop also came, bringing more goods. The house was not short of furniture, but fine items were needed, including bed curtains, curtains, and tablecloths.

Aunt Wu came with a list to order goods, and the shopkeeper and his employees kept looking for the corresponding materials. Soon after, the seller of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar came, and the firewood seller also drove a ox cart to deliver firewood. Everyone in the mansion was busy all the time, and the noise was so loud that it alarmed the neighbors. You have to know that the same street where this house is located is full of officials from the court, so everyone was naturally curious about the new family.

The nearest one is the residence of Liu Shilang of the Ministry of Revenue. The gatekeeper of Liu's residence has found out the news clearly, "The family of Yuan Shoubei of the southwest bought the house of Mr. Wang yesterday, and they are buying some household items today, including cloth, porcelain, firewood and other daily necessities."

"We bought a lot, and the people from the grain store also delivered some food over just now."

The wife of Minister Liu felt a little regretful. The house next door was really nice, but it was too expensive. Two days ago, she was still thinking about going back to her parents' home to borrow some money to buy the house. She could earn at least one or two thousand taels of silver by reselling it.

Unfortunately, the house was sold before the money was borrowed.

"Manager Liu, go over and ask if there is anything you can help with, so that the neighbors can take care of them."

Soon, Manager Liu from the Liu Mansion came in with two people. At this time, the garden was still in a mess, and Li Liang and his men were moving things.

"Madam Yuan, I am the steward of the house next door to Minister Liu. My wife said that we will be neighbors in the future. Madam Yuan just arrived in the capital, and I think she is very busy. If there is a shortage of manpower in our house, we may be able to help out."

"Thank Madam Liu for me. The previous owner of this house left a lot of things. We didn't buy much. We will be relieved after these two days. I will come to thank Madam Liu when I settle down."

Manager Liu felt that this Madam Yuan looked very familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen her before. Also, seeing that there were many people busy in the yard, he did not say much. After a few polite words, he returned to the Liu Mansion.

"Where have you seen me before?"

The more Manager Liu thought about it, the more familiar it seemed, so he turned around and told Madam Liu. Madam Liu was also curious and decided to go and see it for herself tomorrow.

There were many new things in the house, making it look more and more like a new home. Xiao Xun'er was infected with joy and was very happy. In the afternoon, Yan Chaonian brought some flower branches cut from his garden and put them in a vase and placed them in the bedroom.

"Flowers, beautiful."

"It looks good, doesn't it? It was Xun'er who helped me cut the leaves and put them in the bottle. I want to thank Xun'er."

Yan Chaonian was happy to see her son happy, and she was even happier to see her son take some snacks from the table and feed them to her, "Thank you."

The little kid looked at her with a smile, "I love you, Mom." "Really? Mom is so happy."

At this moment, Yan Chaonian felt that he was willing to dig out his heart and give it to this little guy.

Both mother and son laughed happily. Shuiyun came over quickly with a smile, "Madam, the general is back."

"where is it?"

Yan Chaonian raised her eyes and saw Yuan Shen standing in front of her. Xiao Xuner turned around, slid off Yan Chaonian's legs, ran over and hugged Yuan Shen's legs, "Dad~"

Yuan Shen smiled and bent down to hold his son high up in his arms, "Good boy, you know how to feel sorry for your mother."

"Love dad~"

"Hahahaha~~~"

Yuan Shen smiled proudly. Yan Chaonian stood up and asked with a smile, "Didn't you say you would be back tomorrow?"

"I rushed back as soon as I heard about your arrival."

Yuan Shen looked at her carefully and said, "She's thinner."

"I didn't get enough rest on the way, so I'll be back in a few days. But how about you? Are you sure you want to go on the expedition?"

He poured the water and brought it to Yuan Shen's hand. "I asked that Lord Fang, but he didn't say clearly, what exactly is the rule?"

Yuan Shen held the baby in one hand, took the water cup and drank the water, saying: "The border has been disturbed constantly, we have been passively defending against the enemy, and the generals guarding the border are exhausted. The court is ready to solve this matter once and for all, and the border line can be expanded again."

"I have been busy with this matter since I arrived in the capital. I have seven days at most before I have to go back to inspect the troops."

Yan Chaonian took the cup from his hand. The situation was better than she expected. At first, she thought he would have returned by the time she arrived.

"You will live here for the next few days. I bought this place."

"I know."

Yuan Shen's eyes were full of apology. He said that he would be very busy all the time. Even if he came back to stay, he would come back late and leave early. "I will try my best to come back."

Yan Chaonian was helpless, "We'll talk about what happens in the next few days. Now go play with your son. I've been nagging you all the way."

"I brought you some clothes. I'll find them for you later."

Yuan Shen said that his luggage was still in the inn. "I went to see the house arranged by the Ministry of War, but I didn't think you would like it, so I didn't move in. I asked someone to bring the luggage over. I'll see if this place is big enough for you. Let the people I brought move in with me."

"Let them come. I'll have someone buy some beddings now. I'll let you have a good meal tonight. I guess your food hasn't been very good lately."

He looked a little thinner than when he was in the southwest. Yan Chaonian sighed and went to the front yard to make arrangements. Soon, Manager Wu went to the Liu Mansion next door to ask a purchasing manager to help buy meat and vegetables, and also bought a cart of wine.

The cook was also hired from the Liu Mansion next door. Fortunately, all the utensils were complete and smoke came out of the chimney of the big stove after a while.
