Zhou Shuren was also angry. He couldn't catch the two brats. "When they come back, we'll deal with them."
Zhulan was getting anxious again, "Come back, can they come back safely? Do they know that the more they know, the harder it will be for them to leave!"
Zhou Shuren patted his wife's back and said, "Don't be angry. I'll break their legs when they come back."
The emperor said that it was difficult to find twins who looked so alike in the whole country. Anyway, the emperor was very surprised about the twins, but he had already decided how to arrange the twins. What could he do? He had no other choice.
If the twins didn't agree privately, he would have a way. But then again, the emperor deliberately didn't tell him!
Zhulan took a deep breath, "Do Xuemei and Jiang Sheng know?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "I didn't dare tell them that Jiang Miao was getting married. Jiang Sheng asked me, and I said that the twins were favored by the emperor and had a job, but I didn't say anything else."
“… It’s not like this is cheating them.”
Zhou Shuren touched his nose and said, "I mean, I'll tell Xuemei and her husband after Miu Miu comes home."
Zhulan felt uncomfortable and said, "I want to go back and lie down for a while."
"Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look?"
Zhulan waved her hand, "No, I'll just take a rest for a while."
Back at the mansion, Zhou Shuren waited for Chang Yi to come back and called him over, telling him where the twins were. Chang Yi was stunned, "Huh?"
"Isn't that your plan when you trained the twins?"
Chang Yi shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, Dad, please don't wrongly accuse me. How dare I have such a plan? I trained them to let them go to the place where our family bought land and let the two brothers develop. I didn't want them to be spies!"
They have completely different personalities. One is guarding the family business, while the other is working for the country.
Zhou Shuren, "Wait three days, then go tell your brother-in-law and elder sister."
Chang Yi, "... Dad, I might..."
"Um?"
Chang Yi immediately backed off, "I will make sure I explain it clearly."
Zhou Shuren waved his hand. He didn't want to continue looking at his second son. Chang Yi left in a daze. His teeth suddenly hurt. How could he tell his brother-in-law about this? Those were his two eldest sons!
In the following days, Zhulan was in a bad mood because of her twin grandchildren, and Changyi was miserable. His father just didn't like him and he was very miserable.
After knowing the reason, Zhao no longer sympathized with her husband. She had to think about how to face Xuemei.
Soon, Miu Miu returned home, and Chang Yi gritted his teeth and went to his brother-in-law's house to explain the whereabouts of the twins.
Xuemei almost sat on the ground, and asked in a trembling voice, "Second brother, you didn't lie to me?"
Chang Yi rubbed his face and said, "Second brother, you can't joke with me, but you can't joke with my two nephews."
Xuemei's heart ached. How could it be possible? How could it be possible
At the same time, I was so angry that these two children actually dared to agree to it privately!
Jiang Sheng calmed down, "It's not my second brother's fault. The emperor has taken a fancy to them and they can't avoid it."
The fact that the emperor avoided his father-in-law is the best explanation. The emperor knew that his father-in-law would not agree and would suppress the twins, so he directly bypassed his father-in-law. The twins could not take the imperial examinations because of their looks, and they had their own ideas. They also knew that if they went home to discuss it, their family would not agree, but they were brave enough to agree directly.
Xuemei couldn't accept it. Being a spy was a good job? It was a life-threatening job!
Chang Yi consoled him dryly, "The two children have learned martial arts since they were young and are good at it. They are brave, careful, and smart. You can rest assured."
Xuemei wiped her tears and said, "The more outstanding the two children are, the greater the danger they face. Second brother, you don't have to comfort us."
Chang Yi, "... "
He might as well not comfort himself!
Zhou Family, Yu Shuang, "Grandma, are you feeling better?"
"I'm much better now. Don't worry about me anymore. I heard from your mother that you will leave for your ancestors tomorrow."
Yu Shuang nodded, "I'm here today to send the child to my mother to help take care of him for a few days."
"Your mother-in-law is going back with you?"
Otherwise, even my grandchildren wouldn’t watch it.
Yu Shuang nodded, "Back then, the Gu family chased my mother-in-law away, and she felt resentful. This time, she wanted to go back with us in glory."
"It's good to go back. Once you go back, your mother-in-law will feel better."
Yu Shuang felt sorry for her mother-in-law. "My mother-in-law had a hard life in the first half of her life. Now she can finally enjoy her life."
"When you come back, you will be ready to set off again."
In addition to the Shujishi, other people have received imperial edicts one after another these days. Wang Wei is one of the first to receive the edict and is only waiting to report to the Ministry of Works.
Yu Shuang smiled and said, "Well, my father said it's not far from the capital, and he was so secretive that he didn't tell us in advance."
Zhulan knew something about it, and said with a smile: "You'll know when you come back."
At the Wang family, Yu Lu and her husband went out and returned home. Her husband didn't have to study recently and her belly was not that big, so her husband accompanied her for walks every day these days.
The two of them bought a lot of fruits on the street, changed their clothes and came to the main courtyard. When they walked to the gate of the main courtyard, they heard the voice of the second grandmother.
Wang Wei frowned, "Why did Second Grandma speak so loudly to Grandma?"
Yu Lu didn't want to go in, but the maid at the door had already seen them. It was not good for them to go back, so she whispered, "It should be about Wang Hua's marriage."
Wang Wei's face was not looking good. "The families chosen by grandma are all good. I even went to meet the young masters on the list. Whether it is their knowledge or family background, what is there that Wang Hua is not satisfied with?"
Yu Lu tugged at her husband's sleeve and said, "You're talking too loudly. The maids can hear you."
Wang Wei was really angry. Wang Hua had been making a lot of noise recently, and grandma looked very bad recently. "Let's go in and take a look."
Yu Lu sighed. She really didn't want to get involved in Wang Hua's marriage. Wang Hua tried to talk to her several times, but she pretended to be uncomfortable and avoided him.
The gatekeeper girl drew aside the curtain, and Wang Wei helped his wife walk in. At a glance, they saw that all the women from the second room had come, and Wang Hua was standing behind her mother.
Tao had no daughter-in-law to help her, and her granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, so she had to deal with her younger siblings on her own these days.
Tao glared at her grandson, "Why are you and Yu Lu here? Yu Lu is pregnant. Go back and rest with your wife."
Wang Wei looked at his lonely grandmother and was about to speak, but Yu Lu spoke first. Her husband was a man and the room was full of women, so it would be inappropriate for her husband to speak.
Yu Lu said, "We bought some fruits on the street, and my husband and I brought some over for grandma."
Mrs. Tao felt relieved. Yu Lu was indeed raised by the Zhou family. She was very generous and not stingy at all. She never forgot her when she had something delicious. "Grandma doesn't lack fruits. You can take them all back."
Yu Lu looked worried. "Grandma has not looked good these past few days. I feel bad for you taking care of the whole family every day. Grandma, this is a token of my and my husband's filial piety. You can't refuse it."
