Zhulan secretly thought that it was good to catch up. Fortunately, the state where she worked was not too far from the capital, otherwise she would not be able to catch up. "Let Yulu take good care of the two children."
Li said, "I have asked the maid to pass on the message."
The old man of the Wang family passed away. The son-in-law has to stay at home to observe mourning, and the daughter's parents-in-law also have to stay in the capital. The ones far away are fragrant, while the ones nearby are stinky. A year is not a short time.
Seeing that his mother and sister-in-law still had something to say, Changzhong took Linxi and Lu Jiaqing out.
Lu Jiaqing said: "I will go to Master's house later."
Changzhong, "Your master is not at home."
"He's on errands?"
Chang Zhong said, "He went to the village with my elder brother."
Shenxing now follows his eldest brother most of the time. This is Dad's intention.
Lu Jiaqing could only wait until tomorrow passed. He asked someone to sell the leather, and with the money he earned from the palace, he bought a lot of New Year gifts for his master this year.
Changzhong asked again: "Shall we go out for a walk?"
"Great, the capital is bustling right now."
Lin Xi stretched out her hand, "Uncle, I'll go too."
Chang Zhong said: "Okay, but you don't look like a girl anymore, you look more and more like a boy."
Lin Xi pointed at the skirt, "Isn't this a skirt?"
"I'm talking about character."
Lin Xi smiled, "My father said that I have a good personality."
Anyway, she is a princess, and no one dares to say much to her. Her father said that she can live a comfortable life all her life.
The three of them arrived at the restaurant, and Lin Xi said, "My uncle is the elder, you treat us."
Changzhong was a little short of money after getting engaged, and was waiting to receive a sum of money during the Chinese New Year. Today, Lu Jiaqing returned to Beijing, and it was time to pay. "Okay, I'll treat you."
Linxi ordered her favorite food, and instead of going into the private room to eat, they found a nice seat in the hall and sat down.
While ordering food, someone would come up to me and say, "I thought I was seeing things, but it turns out she is the princess."
Lin Xi's eyes were filled with confusion. She had never seen the lady in front of her before. "Do I know you?"
Miss An's smile froze. "I don't know her. I've only met the princess."
Lin Xi found it interesting, "But from what I heard from you just now, it seemed like you were very familiar with me."
Miss An's face turned pale. "I just wanted to say hello to the princess. I just came to the capital and don't understand. I didn't mean anything else."
Lin Xi pointed to the door and said, "To be honest, you look like I bullied you. If that's the case, just go ahead and don't say goodbye. It hurts my eyes to stay here."
Miss An's face turned even paler. It was the first time she was treated so rudely. She didn't dare to look at the people around her and quickly left with her maid.
Chang Zhong smiled and said, "You are not afraid of rumors that Princess Linxi is domineering."
Lin Xi sneered, "Does she dare?"
She even admired your courage!
Lin Xi didn't take it seriously and said to Lu Jiaqing, "My uncle and I have ordered. What do you like to eat?"
Lu Jiaqing came back to his senses, "Okay."
Changzhong waited for Lu Jiaqing to finish counting, and said, "Why do you seem to be worried about something?"
Lu Jiaqing smiled and said, "No."
Changzhong didn't believe it. After dinner, the three of them separated. Changzhong tapped his palms with a fan and called the servant, saying, "Go ask about the girl just now."
The servant's eyes widened, "Sir, you."
Changzhong hit the boy on the head with his fan, "What are you thinking about?"
The servant laughed. He was also joking with the young master because he knew that he was not a sentimental person and the girl just now seemed pretentious to him.
When Changzhong got home, he found out who the girl belonged to. She was the daughter of the head of the Ministry of Works, who had just arrived in Beijing.
He felt as if he had touched something, but he suppressed the urge to continue digging. Forget it. If it was really as he guessed, he would know sooner or later.
Two days later, Zhulan took Li to Wang's house. Tao had lost a lot of weight. Zhulan asked, "Is the old lady okay?"
Tao said: "I'm still in good spirits."
Zhulan patted Tao's hand and said, "You should also be more relaxed."
Tao has been worrying too much lately, "Yeah."
Zhulan talked to Tao, while Li went to see Yulu. Her daughter had lost a lot of weight. "Take care of yourself."
Yu Lu helped her mother sit down, "My daughter is fine."
Li asked, "I didn't see your mother-in-law just now. Where is your mother-in-law?"
"Mother-in-law takes care of the old lady, and my daughter comes back to rest."
When Li heard this, she said, "Your mother-in-law really loves you."
Yu Lu said: "Mom, my mother-in-law is pretty good."
Of course, this is mixed with a lot of things. Her background and the fact that she has two sons are her confidence. Her mother-in-law is clear-headed and will not make things difficult for her.
Li asked again, "Where are my son-in-law and children?"
Yu Lu said, "She is guarding the main courtyard. Mother, the old lady has distributed all the things she has saved for a lifetime, and my daughter got a lot."
Li said, "The old lady treats you very well."
Yu Lu smiled and said, it was all because of her two sons. She would wait and see if she had no son.
On the other side, Zhulan went to see the old lady and talked for a while. The old lady was tired, so Zhulan took Li and left the Wang family.
On the way home in the carriage, Li told her daughter about what she had obtained, "Let Yu Lu keep it well."
In the future, they will be given to two children. To put it bluntly, Yu Lu just passed it over.
Li added, "Mom, my family will also have a child taking the exam to become a scholar next year."
Zhulan really didn't know, "This is a good thing."
Li also laughed, "I didn't expect that there is still a good way to study. It would be great if I could pass the exam and become a scholar."
She didn't dare to think about becoming a juren, but this also showed that the Li family was gradually getting better.
Zhulan was happy for the Li family, "Wait for Changzhong to go back and take care of the boy from your in-laws' family."
Li said, "Thank you, mother."
Now that I have something happy happening, I no longer think about the Wang family.
As the days passed, everyone in the capital knew about Mr. Wang's situation. Even the emperor sent the head of the courtyard to guard him. The emperor knew what the old man was thinking.
The Emperor is very satisfied with the Wang family, a neutral family in the capital.
The Emperor said to Zhou Shuren, "I don't like the old man to continue to suffer."
“This is the old man’s insistence.”
The emperor said: "I remember all the achievements of the old man's descendants, and no one will hinder them."
Zhou Shuren understood that the emperor wanted him to pass on a message to the Wang family, "The old man trusts the emperor."
The emperor smiled. He trusted the Wang family but also had his own plans. However, among all the noble families, he preferred the Wang family. "You haven't seen your little apprentice, have you? This child changes every day. Yes, he looks very much like me."
Prince, "..."
Obviously more like him!
Zhou Shuren, "I will take a closer look if I have a chance."
The emperor said, "It's a pity that the weather is too cold, and it's not convenient for you to go to the prince's mansion. When the weather warms up, bring the child to the palace. Take a closer look. This child looks like me, and he will definitely be a wise ruler in the future."
Zhou Shuren glanced at the prince. The emperor asked him to be his master. The emperor agreed and recognized this successor. This child is the crown prince's grandson. Wow, the emperor's words gave the prince reassurance.
The prince paused while reviewing the memorials and suppressed the joy in his heart. He did not think whether his son would be mediocre or not. He knew that his eldest son would be like him, and with the guidance of Marquis Zhou, he would definitely be a wise ruler in the future.
Zhou Shuren's face looked strange again, thinking of what his wife said about the position of Crown Princess. The competition for the position will be more intense and more dangerous in the future.
