Wang Ling and Wang Liu arrived very quickly. Although they were anxious, they still tried their best to choose a good day to get engaged.
Both parties are quite satisfied. Wu Yong is older and Wang Ling is not young either. The date of getting married is scheduled for next year after the spring plowing.
Zhulan breathed a sigh of relief and sat in the yard with Zhou Shuren in the evening. Looking at the yard that had been almost moved, she said: "This engagement is quite smooth."
Zhou Shuren heard the buzzing sound of mosquitoes and took a fan to fan Zhulan to drive away the mosquitoes, "Well, I will go to Beijing tomorrow."
Zhulan looked up at the sky. Because it was dusk, the sky had some brilliant colors. It was so beautiful. "I really can't bear to leave here."
Jinzhou has been smoothed over, and life is quite comfortable.
Zhou Shuren said, “Jinzhou is really good.”
Zhulan tilted her head and said, "The crabs sent by Rongchuan are also good."
Zhou Shuren chuckled lightly, "Ah, it's indeed good. We have confidence in it."
Zhulan bent her eyes. With such a filial child like Rong Chuan, she felt confident. The child sent more than half of the crabs that the emperor gave Rong Chuan to Jinzhou. "We are a bit jealous."
Zhou Shuren chuckled in a low voice, and then laughed out loud, "Ah, actually it feels pretty good."
Zhulan also laughed. The emperor must be jealous and angry!
Zhulan completely forgot that there was a queen!
In the palace, the queen saw crabs on the table and said, "Get out of here!"
The emperor heard these words as soon as he came in, "Why are you withdrawing?"
The queen pointed at the crab and said, "That's it."
The emperor paused and said, "Well, withdraw."
The prince stood at the door, neither entering nor retreating. When he found that his father was depressed, he was still watching the show, but it had been several days, and the father, the emperor, and the queen were still not over it!
The prince regretted following him, so he might as well go back to his house to eat, "My son suddenly remembered that there were still things to deal with."
The emperor squinted his eyes and said, "There are indeed many twists and turns in the palace."
The prince said hurriedly: "Everything is more important than dining with my father, the emperor, and my empress!"
The emperor snorted inwardly, considering this boy's quick reaction!
The prince has a stomachache and cannot use up his dinner tonight.
The queen burst into laughter. She was not jealous of the Yang family, she was just depressed about herself. She, her own mother, could not enjoy such a filial child like Rong Chuan!
There was a smile in the emperor's eyes, but he was still jealous. Jealous that Ning Xu kept favoring his son, and jealous that Zhou Shuren was enjoying his son's filial piety!
At noon the next day, a convoy of carriages came to the capital. The convoy was very long and attracted attention from the moment it entered the city gate.
In the second carriage, Chang Zhong opened the curtain and said, "Mom, Dad, we have entered Beijing. Are we really not leaving this time?"
Zhou Shuren was afraid that the little fat man would not hold the car window and fall on him, so he pulled his son's clothes and said, "Yes, this time unless your father and I become officials, we will not move."
Chang Zhong was so happy that he said, "That's great. The capital is so lively. It's better to be in the capital."
Zhulan lowered the car curtain and said, "I think you want to go out on the street."
Changzhong touched his small purse and smiled, "Mom."
Zhou Shuren loosened his son's clothes. He stopped hugging his son. It was summer and his son was already fat and prone to sweating. Holding him in his arms was like holding a stove!
Changzhong's stomach growled, Zhulan took the snack, "Eat a piece of snack first, you'll be home in a while."
Changzhong didn't want to eat, "Mom, I want to eat cold noodles."
Zhou Shuren also wanted to eat after hearing this. He opened the car curtain and called Jin Yan, "Go ahead and tell the kitchen to make more cold noodles."
Although the cold noodles in ancient times are not as abundant as in modern times, it is good to have cold noodles. It is still most comfortable to eat cold noodles in summer.
Chang Zhong was happy and threw himself into his father's arms, "Daddy is the best."
After saying that, the little guy climbed down quickly. It's hot, daddy is so hot!
Zhou Shuren was amused when he saw it. The father and son now dislike each other!
In the teahouse next to the street, the second prince Zhang Jingyang shook his fan and watched the motorcade moving forward, "Master Zhou has entered Beijing!"
Zhang Jinghong stood aside while drinking herbal tea, "Master Zhou really has the Sacred Heart!"
He even wants to become a disciple of Mr. Zhou. He doesn’t want to study ten percent, just half!
Zhang Jingyang listened to the commotion of drinking tea, silently turned around and picked up the teapot, "The weight of this teapot is a bit too light!"
Zhang Jinghong touched his belly and said, "Ah, all the tea is here, so the teapot is pretty light."
Zhang Jingyang laughed angrily, "You are so rude."
While he was watching the motorcade, they all drank it up!
Zhang Jinghong curled his lips inwardly. All these years of dealing with each other were not in vain. He would not be polite. "Being polite to your second brother would be too disrespectful."
Zhang Jingyang really hates Lao Wu now, "Here's another pot of herbal tea!"
Zhang Jinghong chuckled lightly, "Second brother, have you heard that Shen Yang is selling his house?"
Zhang Jingyang put down the fan in his hand. He really looked down on Shen Yang. He felt stupid for even arguing with Shen Yang, "You have had a lot of contact with him. What do you want to know, a dove occupying a magpie's nest?"
"Second brother, your metaphor is inappropriate!"
Does this compare the emperor to a bird? He also scolded himself for being a bird! And he knows a lot!
Zhang Jingyang, "......"
His hands were itching, and he really wanted to beat him up!
When the convoy arrived at Zhou Mansion, Mrs. Dong and her servants were waiting early, "Mom and Dad, you have worked hard all the way."
Zhulan felt uncomfortable with the heat, "Let's go to the hospital first."
Ms. Dong no longer has to wait for her sisters-in-law and younger siblings. Her mother-in-law is the most important thing. "Mom, the food is already ready."
Zhulan wanted to take a bath first, but she thought her son was hungry early, "Then let's eat first."
Mrs. Song understood and went to pass on the message, lest each room return to the courtyard first.
Mrs. Li entered the courtyard, "It's so grand. It's no smaller than the home in Jinzhou."
Su Xuan was also very satisfied. The house given by the emperor was a good one. "Sister-in-law, our parents are waiting for us. Let's take a quick two steps."
Mrs. Li, "Yes, take two steps quickly and don't keep your parents waiting!"
Su Xuan looked at her son and daughter who were being held by her mother-in-law. These two little guys had suffered a lot, but fortunately they were well raised and still had energy. She signaled to her mother-in-law, "Send the young master and the young lady back to the fourth courtyard. You all are welcome." Look carefully."
The mother-in-law didn't dare to be careless, "Yes."
In the main courtyard, Zhulan simply washed her face and hands and felt much cooler. The Zhou Mansion, which was originally a little empty, was now lively. Zhulan looked at the maids moving things and said to Mrs. Song: "Let them all eat and rest first. I’ll clean it up after dinner.”
Mrs. Song responded and went out.
The food in the main courtyard was also served. Zhulan and Zhou Shuren took their seats, and then the whole family took their seats one by one.
Zhou Shuren said: "Let's have a simple meal at noon, and then we'll talk about it in the evening. Let's get started."
He doesn't want to talk anymore. He feels uncomfortable all over. Chang Lian and Rong Chuan are not here either, so he should wait for everyone to gather!
