Eunuch Liu continued: "Just now the Queen's female officer gave me some snacks."
Your Majesty, "Go to the Queen's palace."
"yes."
In Yao Hou Mansion, Yao Wenqi sent someone away, waited for them to leave, and dropped the tea cup. Now he wanted to eat people's hearts. His partner was anxious and acted selfishly behind his back several times. Yao Wenqi's eyes were cold. This was too much. I don't trust him less and less, and I didn't trust him at the beginning of the cooperation.
But he couldn't bear it if his plan was ruined. He squinted his eyes. It was better to clean up those who were disobedient.
Two days later, Zhulan went to Yaohou Mansion. When the carriage arrived at the gate of Yaohou Mansion, Zhulan saw that she seemed to be the only one who came alone, and the other female family members all brought their daughters.
Zhulan suddenly understood that the main purpose of this banquet was to invite her and hope that she would bring the daughter of the Zhou family.
Mrs. Song lowered her voice and said, "Second Young Master Yao is quite old and should have gotten married long ago. I just don't know why I keep putting it off."
Zhulan knew in her heart that because the second young master Yao and the current fifth prince concubine were born from the same mother, it could be seen from the dowry of the fifth prince concubine that Yao Houye abandoned this daughter, and he may also be unhappy with the second young master Yao. .
Of course, there is another possibility. The Marquis wanted to promise a good marriage to his son, so he kept putting it off, but it was unlikely.
Entering the Marquis Mansion, the Yao Marquis Mansion was passed down from ancestors and was much larger than the Shen Marquis Mansion. The banquet was held in the garden. When Zhulan arrived, many people had already come.
Bai was sitting on the main seat. Zhulan met Li and said, "I've met Madam."
Bai said kindly: "I have always wanted to meet you, and today I met you. We will talk more in a while. Come and take a seat."
Zhulan sat down with a smile. She did not miss the smile in Bai's eyes, especially when she was the only one here. She knew in her heart that it was good for Bai not to like the marriage of a concubine.
Zhulan attended several banquets and got to know a lot of people. She looked around and found that among the official family members invited today, none of her husband's official positions were particularly high. The highest she saw was a third-rank official.
Zhulan looked at the young ladies sitting together. There were quite a few. She thought about it. After all, the Yaohou Mansion was a Hou Mansion. Although there were many right and wrongs, it could not stop people who wanted to marry into the Hou Mansion, especially in the capital. An official with no background.
After waiting for a while, Zhulan saw Miss Yao Er arrived, and Bai stopped her fake smile when she saw her own daughter.
Yao Yao had a headache. She actually wanted her mother to guard her younger brother, but her mother joined forces with her aunt, and that's how today's blind date party happened.
Yao Yao sat next to her mother and noticed the Yang family. She was very surprised that her mother invited the Zhou family. Then she thought that it must be her father's wish. She must tell her father about the banquet. Yao Zhegang, although he was rejected by his father, But it still has value.
Mr. Zhou has won the trust of the emperor, so my father must have had his thoughts. However, the young lady from the Zhou family is engaged, and the older lady from the Zhou family is Mr. Zhou's eldest granddaughter.
Yao Yao lowered her head. It would take a few years before the little girl could get married. Her father really didn't care about Yao Zhegang. If his younger brother hadn't been stupid, it would have been his younger brother who his father wanted to take advantage of. His younger brother was the most suitable age.
Finally County Lord Shen arrived and sat down directly without giving any face to Bai.
Bai didn't feel angry at all and was still chatting with the woman next to her.
Zhulan thought about it, Bai's legitimate son was stupid, lacked confidence, and sipped the tea playfully. County Lord Shen didn't take Bai's eyes seriously, so he was testing the truth. It seemed that he didn't believe that Bai's legitimate son was stupid. .
Zhulan didn't pay much attention to Bai's reaction, but was more concerned about Miss Yao Er, who was the key.
Yao Yao felt Yang's heart tightening as she looked at her. She regretted that she had leaked too much in front of Yang, so she made Yang pay special attention to her.
Zhulan withdrew her gaze and raised the corners of her mouth. She already knew what she wanted to know.
Suddenly, Mrs. Bai said: "Ladies of the Zhou family, it's a pity that you didn't come today. I only heard that the granddaughter of the Zhou family is a beauty, but it's a pity that I only heard her name but never saw her in person."
Zhulan smiled and said, "My granddaughters are young. I think a banquet like this at the Hou Mansion is not suitable for them."
Last time Xuehan took Yushuang to the banquet, everyone knew that Yushuang was good-looking.
Bai understands what Yang means. My granddaughter is young, so don’t worry about it. Bai curled her lips, she really doesn’t care about it. The Zhou family is booming, and she doesn’t want to take advantage of the bastard. Look, the Zhou family is hiding. At the Hou Mansion!
County Master Shen's eyes lit up. She only remembered the engagement of the young lady from the Zhou family and forgot about Miss Sun. In the past, the young lady in the second room of the Zhou family had a low status, but it is different now. Both her father and husband said that Mr. Zhou is a man of great fortune, so The shortcomings of Zhou's second house can be ignored.
County Master Shen was thinking about her nephew. The eldest son of the eldest brother's family was engaged, but the second son was not. Well, she still needed to visit the Zhou Mansion and meet the Zhou family's granddaughter with her own eyes.
It's not just County Master Shen who is thinking about it, but also the female family members attending the banquet today.
Zhulan felt the scrutinizing eyes and understood in her heart what they were thinking. She wanted to take a closer look at Yushuang.
In the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren was accompanied by Director Zheng. This Director Zheng was mentioned by Deng Xiucai. He observed it for some days before mentioning it to him. It was not bad. Although he was not as easy to use as Wang Jue, it was still okay.
Zhou Shuren missed Mr. Wang a little, especially when he was busy, having a good assistant would save him a lot of work. He thought that it would be good for Wang Ju to work as a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Master Zheng felt a little nervous when he saw that the master was stunned, "Sir, but I made a mistake in my calculation?"
Zhou Shuren came to his senses and said, "No, the number is correct. You can go back first."
Mr. Zheng was relieved. It was rare for him to be with Mr. Zhou. There were too many people in charge of the household department. He cherished the opportunity. How many people wanted to be with Mr. Zhou. He was chosen by Mr. Zhou. It was like pie in the sky. There were no mistakes. OK, "Yes."
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, but his efficiency was still low. He missed Wang Ju again, the helper he had trained with great difficulty!
In the Jinzhou government office, Wang Ju kept sneezing, Master Wang frowned, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
But don't get sick, it's all a mess now!
Wang Ju touched his nose and said, "It's okay. I just want to sneeze suddenly. Someone should be talking about me. It must be Mr. Zhou."
His father said that Zhou Shuren came to Beijing and fought a good battle, and now he is very stable in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Mr. Zhou talks about him more, and Mr. Zhou can help him more when he comes to Beijing in the future.
Thinking about it this way, Wang Yuxin's Qing Gong is particularly good.
Mr. Wang is sad and envious. He also wants to be talked about by Mr. Zhou. Unfortunately, he is self-aware. There is a lot of difference between him and Wang Yu. He has worked with Mr. Zhou for several years and Mr. Zhou likes capable people.
At the Ministry of Household Affairs, Zhou Shuren and Qiu Yan went to see Lord Shangshu. Lord Shangshu was angry.
Xiao Qing said angrily, "Look at it."
Zhou Shuren didn't move. Qiu Yan stepped forward to look at it first, then handed it to Zhou Shuren, and then said, "Didn't you just give money to the officials a few days ago?"
This is what he did.
