Changzhong said nothing. Wu Shangheng rode over on horseback. "His horse got scared and almost hit the carriage on the way."
Mingrui was alert, "Why would a horse be frightened?"
Chang Zhong wiped his nose and said, "When I was riding a horse, a wild cat jumped out. The horse got a little scared, but it's nothing serious. You see, both the horse and I are fine."
After saying this, he glared at Wu Shangheng for his quick mouth.
Mingrui pulled his uncle over to confirm that he was not injured before he felt relieved, "Did you really not hit the carriage?"
Wu Shangheng smiled and said, "No, but the lady in the carriage was frightened. Your uncle apologized."
Changzhong didn't want to see Wu Shangheng, so he wouldn't get into trouble if he didn't agree to go horse racing with Wu Shangheng today. "Let's go back home."
Mingrui signaled his uncle to ride in the carriage with him. Changzhong handed the horse to the servant. After getting on the carriage, Changzhong exclaimed. Mingrui looked over and asked, "What did my uncle see?"
Changzhong, "The carriage that just passed by was the one I almost hit."
Mingrui saw a half-worn carriage, followed by two servants, and a woman sitting outside the carriage. It was obvious that she was not a lady from a wealthy family. "It looks like she is coming to Beijing from other places."
The servant looked tired, obviously exhausted from the long journey.
Changzhong, "Yeah, the accent is from the south."
Mingrui saw his uncle lower the carriage curtain and said, "Go home, your nephew won't hide it for you."
Changzhong, "No, do you have the heart to make your grandma worry?"
Mingrui: “Hehe.”
Changzhong, "... "
Alas, my nephew is not cute at all after growing up!
Zhulan was indeed worried after she found out, and couldn't help but scold her, "If anything happens to you, it could cost me and your father our lives."
Changzhong, "Mom, today was an accident. You have to trust your son's riding skills."
Zhulan asked, "Do you want to apologize for almost hitting the carriage today?"
"I have paid for it."
Seeing that her son had no intention of saying more, Zhulan glared at him and said, "Behave yourself these days."
Changzhong smiled apologetically, "Son, just stay home obediently."
Changzhong kept his word and stayed at home as long as he could. Time passed quickly and Yudie's wedding date was set. The Liu family wanted to marry a new daughter-in-law this year, but because Rong Yuyin's first anniversary was not yet complete, they felt it would be a pity to get married in winter, so they finally agreed to get married in the early spring of next year.
After the wedding date was set, Yudie instantly grew up a lot and became more stable than before. She no longer went out to make arrangements but instead devoted herself to learning how to be a housekeeper.
That day, Zhao took Yudie out and came back holding a big box.
Zhulan looked at the three-layer box and asked, "Are you ordering jewelry again?"
Zhao's eyebrows curved, "Mother, please take a look."
Zhulan was indeed curious. She opened it and saw that one layer was a hairpin, another was a bracelet, and the last layer was exquisite jewelry. "What a generous gift."
Zhao, "I looked through the dowry list and found that there were not enough jewelry. The Liu family has a deep foundation and the eldest daughter-in-law has a good family background, so my daughter-in-law bought some more to add to it."
Zhulan stood up and took a small box from the cabinet, and handed it to Zhao. "I wanted to give it to you before Yudie got married, so I'll give it to you today."
Zhao knew that this was the dowry that her mother-in-law gave to her granddaughter, "Thank you, mother."
She didn't postpone it out of pretense. Her mother-in-law had made preparations for each granddaughter, so it would be too fake for her to postpone it.
Zhulan added: "I heard from Changyi that you are going to take Yudie to see her dowry shop and farm."
"Let Yudie recognize the servants who came with her as a dowry so that she can be familiar with the output of the farm and avoid being fooled by the servants in the future."
"Very good, you thought it through very carefully."
Zhao said, "My daughter-in-law learned everything from me."
Zhulan added: "Now that Yudie is getting married, Mingfeng will be the only one left in your second room."
"With Mingfeng left, my husband and I can relax."
Zhulan calculated that the first wife's two sons still had to get married, and the second wife's Yudie was married and only Mingfeng was left. Time passed really quickly, and all the grandchildren were about to get married.
The next day, Li came to the main courtyard with her grandson Xiwen. The little guy had just left his mother and was now particularly attached to Li.
Zhulan looked at it carefully and said, "It's a little fatter."
Li put her grandson down, and the little guy called out sweetly. Li then said, "My thoughts are all on Xiwen. I made Xiwen's meals myself."
She was very proud of her cooking skills. When her grandson left Ran Wan, his mouth became irritated and he couldn't eat. She thought of ways to make delicious food for him, and instead of losing weight, he gained weight.
Zhulan asked, "Why didn't Wenyue come with you?"
Li said, "She was writing big characters and said she would come over when she was done."
"Wen Yue's personality is like her father's."
Mrs. Li nodded in agreement. Her granddaughter looked very much like her eldest son when she had a stern face. Her soft grandson was still the cutest. Seeing her grandson eavesdropping with his ears erect, she laughed out loud, "I don't know who Xiwen's personality is like. He smiles first when he sees anyone."
Zhu Lan, "My son looks like his mother, and a little like Ran Wan."
Li suddenly said, "I heard from Liu Jia that my mother-in-law also went to the grassland."
"I should have known to go with Ran Wan."
Li shook her head. "We can't get along. Ming Teng said that my father-in-law has changed his job."
Zhulan really didn't know. She thought Liu Jing did a good job. "Come to think of it, I haven't seen An Xiao for a few days."
Li, "Ming Teng taught An Xiao enlightenment. How old is a kid and he's already being enlightened? I told you Ming Teng still doesn't listen."
"I see Ming Teng is idle at home."
Before Rong Yuyun passed away, Ming Teng was so busy with his work that he didn't feel time passing quickly. Now that he has some free time, he feels that time is passing slowly.
Li snorted, "He has nothing to do, why doesn't he learn from Liu Jia? Liu Jia has opened a piece of land in the yard to grow vegetables, and I haven't seen him go to help."
"Is that for growing vegetables? I thought Liu Jia wanted to grow flower seedlings."
Li, "Liu Jia asked me for advice, it is indeed used for growing vegetables."
Zhulan thought to herself, "What kind of mother-in-law takes care of her daughter-in-law? I will go to worship Buddha with your Aunt Tao tomorrow. Will you come?"
Li shook her head, "My daughter-in-law won't go."
"Okay then, I'll take Yuyi there tomorrow."
The eldest daughter-in-law is busy with her grandson, the second daughter-in-law is busy teaching her daughter. Su Xuan doesn't like to worship Buddha, so among the granddaughters, only Yuyi can accompany her.
Ministry of Rites, Chang Yi came back from outside, holding the letter he had received.
Ji Deming had been waiting at the door, "Master Zhou."
Chang Yi, "What's wrong with you?"
Ji Deming took the notebook and said, "This is what the Second Prince asked me to give you."
Changyi has been helping his son find woodcarving notes recently. He has invited craftsmen from the Ministry of Works to dinner several times just for the notes. Does the Second Prince know about this
Ji Deming saw that Lord Zhou did not answer, "Sir, His Highness also wants to help."
Chang Yi smiled and said, "I have already received it. Please thank His Highness for me."
If His Highness had the idea of opening a new course, he could still admire the Second Prince, but now, haha, how stupid was he to let the Second Prince interfere and bully his son for being just a scholar
Ji Deming's smile was a little stiff, Zhou Changyi just left like that!
Chang Yicai is not afraid of the Second Prince. He has no leverage over him and his father is around, so the Second Prince can't do anything to him.
Chang Yi returned to the house and carefully looked through the notes. For these notes, he not only treated guests to a meal but also used a lot of favors. Everything was worth it for his son!
He doesn't have his father's ability, but he can try his best to satisfy his son's wishes. Thinking of his son's happy expression, the corners of his mouth curled up!
