Before leaving, Zhulan looked at her grandchildren again. The two little ones were asleep. Zhulan didn't need to worry about these two children, as Su Xuan had prepared everything.
Back at the main courtyard, Zhulan caught her son head-on and said, "Don't rush into my arms like this in the future. I'm old, and your strength will hit me."
Changzhong realized he was wrong, and then he became energetic again, "Mom, I want to go see my nephew and niece, but Granny Liuya won't let me go."
Zhulan took her son's hand and walked back, "Your nephew and niece are too young when they are born. When they grow up, I will take you to see them."
Changzhong felt lost. He finally had a nephew younger than him, but it would take a long time before he could see him again!
Zhulan touched her son's head and said, "Go play. Mom will take a rest for a while."
Chang Zhong saw his mother rubbing her waist, "Mom, I don't want to go out and play anymore. I'll rub your waist for you."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Okay."
Zhulan enjoyed her son's filial piety and fell asleep in a daze. When she woke up, it was dark and Zhou Shuren was sitting next to her reading a book!
Zhou Shuren helped Zhulan up and asked, "Are you awake?"
"When did you come back?"
"I've been here for a while. Changzhong has already finished his meal and is ready to rest. Also, Su Xuan has woken up. I asked Mrs. Song to go and see her. Mrs. Song said that Su Xuan has recovered well, so you don't have to worry about her."
Zhulan didn't expect that she slept for several hours. Just when she was about to speak, her stomach growled.
Zhou Shuren signaled Mrs. Song who was watching to send a maid to serve the food, and then said to Zhulan, "You didn't eat today, did you?"
"Well, I had a snack this morning. I wanted to eat something when I got back, but I fell asleep in a daze."
Zhou Shuren held Zhulan, "Don't get off the ground, bring the kang table over later, and we'll eat on the kang table."
Zhulan, "You didn't eat?"
"I can't eat if you're not awake."
Soon, the maid brought dinner, which included chicken wonton soup and two appetizers.
Zhulan had dinner, feeling warm inside, and then she washed up and lay down again. Zhou Shuren helped Zhulan lean against the pillow, "Don't lie down after you've just finished a meal."
Zhulan waited until she and Zhou Shuren were alone in the room, and whispered, "I was dreaming."
Zhou Shuren asked, "What did you dream about?"
Zhulan smiled and said, "I dreamed of modern times, and I dreamed that I was taking care of a child. Don't tell me, you see, I have taken care of many children here, and I really have some experience in taking care of children."
Zhou Shuren held Zhulan's hand and said, "It would be great if we could go back to modern times."
Zhulan smiled and said, "If I go back, I will have acquired many skills. I can paint well, do good embroidery, and take care of children."
Zhou Shuren counted himself, and found that his scheming skills were maxed out.
The two chatted for a long time and didn't know how late it was before they fell asleep.
The next day, Mrs. Tao came with her daughter. Mrs. Tao said enviously, "Your family has so many happy events. I want to take part in the happiness, too."
Zhulan asked, "It has spread everywhere now, right?"
"You are asking even though you already know the answer. Boy and girl twins are rare. People say that the Zhou family is lucky and blessed!"
Since the beginning of the new year, good things have never stopped happening in the Zhou family, and she felt jealous.
Zhu Lan said: "It's just that they all happened at the same time, it's not as exaggerated as the rumor said."
"I don't think it's an exaggeration at all. It's so rare to have twin boys and girls who are born safely as the first child."
Zhulan was silent. The ancients were the most superstitious. Even the Tao family was like this, not to mention other people. Sometimes luck and blessing can really bring benefits to the family.
In the government office, Zhou Shuren's hand was held by Wang Ju, with a wooden face, "If you don't let go when I count to three, I will shout."
Wang Ju was confused, "Sir, what are you shouting?"
Zhou Shuren didn't explain, he just looked at Wang Ju calmly, Wang Ju's hair stood up, the more he got to know, sometimes Master Zhou has a very low bottom line and is very thick-skinned, so he quickly let go of her hand, "I just want to take advantage of your blessing."
Zhou Shuren wiped his hands with a handkerchief. He had been tightly held by a man this morning, an old, greasy man. He couldn't take it anymore and felt a little nauseous. "Goodbye, I won't see you off."
Wang Ju looked at the handkerchief in Lord Zhou's hand. He must have disliked him so much. He had wiped his hands three times. However, he would not wash his hands. Lord Zhou was really lucky.
The next day was the day for the third bath. The children were taken out. The twins were too small to withstand the heavy lifting, so Zhulan and Zhou Shuren originally wanted to cancel the ceremony.
It’s just that too many people wanted to come to the house, so in the end they had to hold the wedding without bringing the child out and just keep it simple, but there were still a lot of people coming.
Inside the palace, the empress and the emperor also talked about the Zhou Mansion, "The Zhou Mansion is indeed very lucky."
The emperor also sighed, "Yes, come to think of it, Zhou Shuren can be considered my lucky general. Some of the things he encountered were caused by him."
Queen, "Lord Zhou is blessed to have Rongchuan. I really want to meet Lord Zhou's wife."
"It's a pity that they are not in the capital. It's not easy for you to summon them."
The queen was depressed. "It's not easy. I also want to meet the daughter of the Zhou family."
She had the most complete information about Zhou Xuehan. The more she looked at him, the more she liked this future daughter-in-law. The girl was good at managing the household and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Although she was not proficient in them, she was already pretty good. What she liked more was the way Zhou Xuehan behaved. She would not be weak and be bullied, nor would she take the initiative to bully others. She was always tactful and steady.
So she also became interested in Lord Zhou's wife. The character of the women in the backyard can also reflect the character of the mistress of the family, and the mistress also has the responsibility to raise her children.
The emperor was thinking about something. He didn't want Zhou Shuren to go to Beijing early. But at the moment, it seems that it is better for him to go to Beijing early. Jinzhou is no longer worth Zhou Shuren's stay.
However, it must be said that Zhou Shuren is indeed a good official in the hearts of the people. He has only been in Jinzhou for a few years, and everything he does is related to the people.
Moreover, he had always thought that Zhou Shuren was a lucky man. Now the Zhou family not only had Rongchuan, but also had twins. Zhou Shuren's life was particularly smooth!
There is turmoil in the capital now. Zhou Shuren is lucky to stay in the capital. This living chess piece can play a significant role.
But in the capital, there is one carrot and one hole, so you still have to plan. Let him think about which carrot to pick.
The queen didn't hear the emperor's reply for a long time. Seeing that the emperor was lost in thought and fiddling with the Buddhist beads with his fingertips, she tried to persuade him, but sometimes, her words could play a role.
The Queen was in a good mood. It seemed that Lord Zhou and his family had arrived in the capital ahead of time.
Jinzhou, government office, Zhou Shuren invited Lord Ran to come in, "Lord Ran, is there something wrong?"
Ran Zheng, "There is indeed something. Mr. Zhou's grandson hasn't been engaged yet!"
Zhou Shuren knew what was going on. "We haven't gotten engaged yet. It's not easy to find a wife for this grandson. Not only does she need to be tolerant, but she also needs to be mature and steady.
I’ve been worried all the time!”
