The Ideal Son-in-Law

Chapter 234: House viewing? House building?

Views:

Since she was going to look at the house with Zhang Shou, Zhu Ying, who always liked to sleep in, got up early the next morning. She finished the breakfast sent to her room in a few bites, and then took the two maids, Zhan Jin and Liu Yin, who were dressed neatly. Usually, the lady would not allow her to show off in public with the maids, but today was different.

Zhan Jin and Liu Yin will definitely go with her to the Zhang family in the future. In this case, of course, she should let them see what the future house will be like, and give her and Zhang Shou some advice. On the contrary, she did not bring Zhu Hong and the guards who always followed her today, so as not to be too conspicuous when she went to see the house. For this reason, she and Zhan Jin and Liu Yin even changed into men's clothes.

However, when she and her two maids arrived at the back door, she found her second brother leaning against the door railing in a daze. When he saw her, he immediately came over with a big smile on his face. As soon as she saw his attentive expression, she knew that he was definitely waiting for her.

Thinking of the past when her second brother tried to trick her, Zhu Ying immediately became alert: "Second brother, what are you going to do?"

"Good sister..." Zhu Er just finished speaking, and he saw Zhu Ying quickly took two steps back, her eyes full of caution, and he was immediately annoyed. Whenever he wanted to ask Zhu Ying to do something, he would usually start with these three words. After a while, Zhu Ying had already seen through his little trick, and it was even more difficult to deceive her now.

"I'm just curious... well, curious about what kind of house my future brother-in-law plans to buy." Of course, the most important thing is that after dinner yesterday, Zhu Er finally found out from Zhu Ying that the new spinning machine that was making a lot of noise in the capital yesterday was invented by Zhang Shou - he initially thought it was a rumor. Thinking of the benefits that Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu got from it, he was simply envious and jealous.

Such a good thing happened, but Zhang Shou didn't even help his future uncle. He is so disloyal!

"If you're curious, wait until Ah Shou and I have chosen a house. Why are you so anxious now?" Zhu Ying glared at her second brother with an unquestionable tone. Seeing that Zhu Er was still not giving up, she suddenly realized: "I know, what's the curiosity? You must be complaining that Ah Shou didn't think of you when he had something good... Don't worry, I told Ah Shou a long time ago that I will definitely take you with me next time when there is something good!"

After a pause, Miss Zhu said with a wicked smile, "Besides, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu will get married soon. If they don't make some money, how will they support their families in the future? There's no news about your marriage yet, so why are you in such a hurry? Besides, our family is not without money, so why should you be so obsessed with money?"

Zhu Er was in tears. Our Zhu family is quite rich, but I am a pauper! All my savings can't even afford to buy your sister a piece of jewelry! Even the few jade pendants that my grandmother gave to my eldest daughter were kept tightly by her, as if I was a prodigal who would sell things because I had no money to spend...

"Be obedient and stay at home. I will pick a good second sister-in-law for you later!"

Zhu Ying's tone was like coaxing a child, but seeing Zhu Er's pitiful look nodding obediently, she couldn't help but smile slightly when she thought of the emperor personally acting as a matchmaker for her second brother to the niece of Wang Jie, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture.
