Zhulan held the tea cup and suppressed the twitching corners of her mouth. Her children were low-key and never argued about anything every time they went to banquets. Fortunately, Yun and Liu could boast, "I've heard a lot from the Miss Wu family." He has a good reputation for being proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the ladies in the palace praise him!"
Wu Yunshi was happy after hearing this. Her daughter was sought after by hundreds of families. No one in the capital could compare with her daughter.
Zhulan changed her subject again, "Everyone like me who has left the capital has heard that the Miss Wu family is getting engaged?"
Wu Yunshi was stunned. Why didn't she, a mother-in-law, know that she wanted to get engaged? She frowned and said, "No, I didn't ask for an engagement."
Zhulan was surprised, "Really? Maybe it was transmitted by mistake."
Wu Yunshi held on to the handkerchief. Ever since her daughter reached the age of engagement, her sister-in-law and the second prince had plans. The second prince also said that she wanted to find a good family for her daughter. However, there were always people who were obstructing her, so the marriage did not go smoothly.
Wu Yunshi was a little panicked. Why did the news of her daughter's engagement come out? She didn't think that Yang was lying. There must be some news. She couldn't sit still. She wanted to go back and ask questions, "I heard that you are coming back. , we have some friendship, so I came over to have a look. What a coincidence. I have something to do at home, so I will go back first."
Zhulan stood up and said, "Then I will send my wife out."
Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Yang. As soon as Mrs. Yang opened her mouth, she led her sister-in-law away. After a few words, her sister-in-law forgot her purpose. She finally understood that the Zhou family did not want to marry the Wu family, and others knew her sister-in-law's purpose. Yes, just in time, she was happy and relaxed.
Zhulan sent Yun and Liu away. She really didn't lie. It was Deng Xiucai who brought this news to Zhuangzi. Although her words were a bit exaggerated, they were also true.
When she heard the news, she and Shuren also talked.
Just looking at Wu Yunshi's appearance just now, Miss Wu has no intention of getting engaged, so this rumor is somewhat interesting.
Zhulan thought about Yu Shuang's marriage and sighed. She asked Deng Xiucai to check the two families that Zhou Shuren was optimistic about in the past two days. The young man from the Minister of Rites' family was pretty good, but he was a little too ambitious. The girl next to him had taken over the house. Several.
The young masters in Fang Da's family are all well-educated and well-looking, but they have many cousins. One of them grew up together. It is said that they have a very good relationship, and the two families want to get married.
Zhulan stopped thinking after hearing the inquiry. She was too frivolous to be single-minded. She didn't want to gamble with her granddaughter on whether she could win the heart of a playboy, nor did she want her daughter to marry her beloved husband.
In the Yao Hou Mansion, Miss Yao looked tiredly at her mother who was already unconscious. She went to the doctor herself, but she didn't even find out the cause. She watched her mother getting weaker day by day.
Yao Yao wiped her tears and said, "Mom, you must get better."
Bai's fingers moved, and after a while she opened her eyes. Yao Yao shouted excitedly, "Go and ask the doctor to come over, quickly."
It took a while for Bai's eyes to regain their clarity. She looked at the top of the bed in a daze. She was not dead yet. She coughed and looked at her crying daughter. She wanted to raise her hand to touch her daughter's hair, but she didn't have any strength in her hand. , I wanted to speak, but my throat felt particularly uncomfortable, and I coughed even more violently.
Yao Yao carefully supported her mother, "Mom, don't talk."
Bai closed her eyes weakly. She thought she was dead, but she was still alive. After drinking some water, the doctor who stayed at the house came. The doctor was very surprised. He had just talked about preparing for the funeral in the morning, and he woke up unexpectedly. He stretched out his hand to feel his pulse and sighed, "I'm going to write a prescription."
Yao Yao heard the sigh, and couldn't help but shed tears. Bai had some strength, and she knew it. This was a moment of reflection. After a while, she drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, and finally had the strength to speak.
He motioned for everyone in the room to go out, took his daughter's hand, and gasped: "After I go, if you can't come back, don't come back."
Yao Yao's heart trembled, "Mother."
She always thought it was weird that her mother was sick. After listening to her mother's words, she still didn't understand.
Bai Shi said something to slow down for a while. She was conscious when she was unconscious, but she couldn't open her eyes. She just saw Yao Wenqi and knew that she was outside that day. Yao Wenqi knew it and held her daughter's hand tightly. , "Your little brother, you have done a good job. If you can help in the future, please help your brother. If you can't help it, forget it."
Yao Yao's pupils tightened, and her mother knew everything, "Mom, I'm not cruel to my little brother, I."
Bai Shi smiled and said, "Mom, I understand. As long as you are here, I have no regrets."
She won't arrange anything and won't tell the children anything, so that's fine.
In the afternoon, Zhulan was very surprised when she heard the news, and asked Mrs. Song to confirm, "You said Madam Yaohou, the Bai family has gone?"
Mrs. Song said: "Yes, we have gone."
Zhulan was in a daze. She knew that Mr. Bai was sick, but she didn't take it to heart. Although there were no modern conditions in ancient times, she had been exposed to traditional Chinese medicine in these years and the doctors were all very capable. Unexpectedly, she heard that it was Mr. Bai. passed away.
Mrs. Song whispered: "Mr. Bai's death is not easy."
Zhulan looked at Mrs. Song. Mrs. Song didn't say much. She must have gotten some news. It was not easy to tell her.
In the Hanlin Academy, as time passed, no one in the palace came to find Shen Yang, and Shen Yang was ignored by the Hanlin Academy.
Chang Lian looked at Shen Yang's blue eyes and looked away calmly.
Lu Liang said: "Chang Lian, let's go drinking together tonight?"
Chang Lian shook his head, "No, you go ahead. My father is back in Beijing, and I want to go back."
Lu Liang's eyes lit up, "Master Zhou has returned to Beijing."
"Well, I'm back in Beijing. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm leaving first."
"Ah good."
When Shen Yang heard this, he raised his head. He was particularly envious of Zhou Changlian now. Having a good father was better than anything else. Feeling that someone was looking at him, he hurriedly lowered his head. These days had worn away all his expectations.
Lu Liang withdrew his gaze and just ignored Shen Yang. He would not offend or add insult to injury. Who knew what was going on in the palace? They were both patient people and preferred to wait for the results.
In Yaohou Mansion, Yao Zheyu looked at the mourning hall that had been arranged, his eyes were cold, listening to his sister's cry, he whispered to his wife: "Yao Yao is pregnant, crying like this is not an option, please bear more pain and take care of her. "
Shen Yile had a good impression of Yao Yao. Yao Yao helped her a lot when she was not married. She always remembered this love, "I understand, don't worry."
Yao Zheyu looked at his brother who had fainted due to weakness and rubbed his forehead. He had so many things to do. Bai's death was strange. Although Yao Yao didn't say anything, he didn't miss the look in Yao Yao's eyes when his father left. Hate.
Yao Yao is a very careful person. I heard that Bai Shi was sober today. Did he say anything
In the Zhou Mansion, Chang Lian has returned, "Father, mother."
Seeing that Chang Lian was in good spirits, Zhou Shuren was relieved and said, "You have worked hard to take care of the family these days."
He heard a lot from Butler Wang, and he became more and more reassured about Chang Lian. Even if the child went out to practice, he had nothing to worry about.
