At the Zhou family, Zhulan didn't know that Wang Ru was regretting her whole life. She was taking care of Wang Ru during her confinement and feeling the magic of life. Babies change quickly during confinement. They were wrinkled when they were born, but they grew up after a few days. Their eyebrows and eyes became clearer, and they were 70% like Zhao. Every time Zhulan looked at her little grandson, she would repeat to urge Zhou Shuren to make progress. In ancient times, not only beautiful women were in danger, but men were the same.
With a child at home, the days passed faster. In the blink of an eye, it was the end of December, the month with the lowest temperature of the year. Zhulan didn't want to get out of bed when she woke up in the morning.
In winter, Zhulan became more and more lazy, and was inseparable from the warm bed every morning.
"Mom, Dad is back."
Zhulan sat up and quickly put on her cotton-padded jacket and shoes and ran out. She pushed open the door and saw Zhou Shuren just got off the carriage. Zhulan's eyes instantly turned red, as if her heart had returned home and she felt particularly at ease. "You're back."
Zhou Shuren quickly stepped forward and reacted faster than his brain. He hugged Zhulan and said, "You're back."
At this moment, my wandering heart has returned home. It feels so good to be home. It feels so good to have someone you care about at home. It feels so good that he is not alone in a strange time and space.
Zhulan blushed. Zhou Shuren hugged her too tightly. "Do you want to strangle me?"
Zhou Shuren chuckled and let go of his hand. This man was extremely timid. He turned to his sons and said, "Carry all the boxes from the car into the hall."
Zhulan was attracted by the full boxes at the back of the carriage, her eyes sparkled, this was a sign of getting rich!
Li came over, "Dad, where is my dad?"
Zhou Shuren, "Your father went home first."
Li wanted to go back to her parents' home. She was thinking about the share of the profits her grandmother had mentioned. She also looked at the boxes that had been unloaded. She didn't know how many good things her father-in-law had bought, and she couldn't let the second son's family take advantage of them. "Mom, I'll go and help."
Zhulan waved her hand. Li's little plan was too obvious. "Go!"
After the boxes were moved to the main hall, Zhulan's nephew Wuchun left with the escort company's carriage. Zheng entered the yard and stared at the main house, ignoring Zhou Shuren. "Sister-in-law, has your family become rich too?"
Zhulan looked at the people outside watching the excitement and lied without changing her expression, "My father, the head of the family, asked the head of the family to come back early this morning with my eldest nephew. What kind of fortune did he make? These are the New Year goods that my eldest nephew bought while running convoys. He sent them to my family as a New Year gift in advance."
Zheng frowned, feeling that Yang was not telling the truth, but the Zhou family rarely went out in winter, so it was difficult for her to get information. She said shamelessly: "What good things did you bring? Let us learn something."
Zhulan was not like the original owner who couldn't stop watching. She sneered, "I'm afraid my sister-in-law will get angry. For her sake, she'd better not watch. Okay, don't watch the fun in such a cold weather. Second brother, close the door quickly."
Zheng was furious. Wasn't this just another way of scolding her for being short-sighted? The door slammed shut, and Zheng's face turned blue with anger.
The gate blocked the view, and the onlookers had all left. No one noticed that Zhou Shuren had disappeared for almost three months. No one doubted Zhulan's statement that Zhou Shuren went to the Yang family. This was because Zhou Shuren was a huge otaku who seldom went out except to go to the fields. Especially in winter, he basically never left the house.
Except for Rongchuan and Zhao, all members of Zhulan's family went to the main hall. There were four boxes in the middle of the hall.
Zhou Shuren drank some hot water to calm down, then took out the key and instructed his third son to open the box. Zhou Changlian was very curious, so he took the key and opened it, then he was stunned and stuttered, "Dad, what did you do? How much money does this cost?"
