Chapter 626: Spring Hunt 2 (2/2)
It was a holiday the next day, so He Sanlang and Chu Lian headed over to to Kangping Lane to take a look at the estate.
Since the emperor had personally approved the official documents and specially gifted them with a new estate, Chu Lian and He Changdi completed their move out of the Jing’an Estate a month later.
Matriarch He found out only on the day they were moving. She almost fainted after finding out.
Muxiang, who was standing behind Matriarch He, was also in disbelief that He Changdi was really moving out!
In the past, she had been able to get a clear understanding of the situation within Songtao Court since she worked close by as the matriarch’s handmaid. Now that He Changdi and Chu Lian were moving out of the estate, she wouldn’t even have the chance to get close to He Changdi anymore!
Muxiang was completely stunned. Senior Servant Liu noticed her soulless expression, which made Senior Servant Liu even more cautious of her.
Within the entire Jing’an Estate, only Matriarch He and Muxiang were against He Changdi moving out.
Countess Jing’an had more of He Changdi’s interests at heart.
If He Changdi hadn’t been bestowed the title of marquis, then he should have continued living in the Jing’an Estate. However, her son had become a marquis now. Even if they were able to live together, the position of Count Jing’an would be passed down to Dalang in the future and her youngest son would still have to move out later.
Dalang would definitely get married again by then. It would be troublesome if there was an uneven distribution between the two branches.
Moreover, the capable young couple of the third branch had the ability to survive on their own. It would also be more comfortable for them.
Count and Countess Jing’an had also noticed that the matriarch was dissatisfied with Chu Lian.
The matriarch had reflected on her behavior after Chu Lian had honestly reprimanded her at Qingxi Hall back then, but there was still a gap between the two.
Once enmity sprung up between two people, it would be difficult to clear up misunderstandings and revert back to their previous relationship.
Chu Lian was also Marchioness Anyuan, so she would definitely have to take up the mantle of lady-in-charge of her own household in the future. It was better to let the young couple gain some experience outside while they were still young. If they made any mistakes at this point, Countess Jing’an still had the ability to help them out right now.
Count Jing’an had the same opinion as his wife. However, his perspective was not only limited to He Changdi. Once He Changjue finally settled down, he would also allow his second son to move out with his wife.
