Chapter 459: Family and friends, occasional gatherings



When mentioning those brats in the mansion, Prince Rong's mood also improved a lot. "Those brats in my mansion are good, but compared to Chang'er and Kang'er, they are far inferior."

Prince Rong was very envious of his brother-in-law Yuan Bohua, who went to war after having a child, and when he came back the child was sensible. He didn't have to take care of the child, and the child grew up to be very outstanding.

Who wouldn't envy him? Those naughty boys in his house were so naughty when they were little, and they almost pissed him off to death.

When Zhou Qiongyue spoke to her cousin, she was very direct. "Look at your cousin, what's wrong with me? You have a preconceived notion, so you think Chang'er and Kang'er are particularly good.

But look at this kid Yuan Chaokang, he doesn't do anything all day and just hangs around me and his father. I'm also quite angry."

"Let's not talk about these brats. Even if I go back home, there's no one I can talk to about this. I just want to stay with my cousin and brother-in-law."

In fact, Prince Rong was more worried about his brother-in-law's health. He and Yuan Bohua were brothers who had shared life and death together, and he also wanted to spend more time with Yuan Bohua.

Zhou Qiongyue, who was also worried about Yuan Bohua's health, understood Prince Rong's feelings very well. "If you want to stay, then stay! But the emperor just ascended the throne, why don't you go back and help?"

Prince Rong quickly waved his hand, "The Emperor's position is quite stable, there's no need for me to add to the glory."

Now Prince Rong has no good feelings towards his brother's sons, especially since so many of them attacked his brother. He thinks they are all cruel people.

He didn't want to get involved in their affairs at all, and felt angry for his royal brother.

Zhou Qiongyue also agreed with Prince Rong's idea, "We are rich and prosperous enough. As for our descendants, they will enjoy as much happiness as they can."

"Anyway, cousin, you can just ask Kang'er to keep an eye on those idiots in my house."

Prince Rong also lived a dandy life in the following years. He and Yuan Chaokang met more often in various dandy occasions, so he inevitably became more suspicious.

Yuan Chaokang interrupted nonchalantly, "Then my fifth cousin should have told me!"

"I'm telling you, you're going to blackmail me for a bunch of goodies! But it's different if I tell my cousin. My cousin might even give me some money. That's the difference."

Prince Rong didn't think there was anything wrong with relying on his sister now that his brother was gone.

Zhou Qiongyue also gave face to this cousin and said to Yuan Chaokang instead: "If you have the energy to spare, please take care of Ze'er and the others."

Prince Rong immediately climbed up the pole and said, "Don't worry about it. If you find your cousins doing something stupid, you can help me clean it up or pass me a message."

This wasn't a big deal, so Yuan Chaokang naturally agreed. Besides, he needed power, too. "My mother has spoken, so of course I obey. But I hope Fifth Uncle doesn't feel bad. I'm pretty ruthless when it comes to punishing people."

Prince Rong waved his hand, not caring at all. "If that day ever comes, just spare your life. If that's not possible, try to preserve a little of your bloodline."

Prince Rong also didn't want his cousin's son to be sacrificed for his son, although he felt that he knew his son well. But after what happened to his brother, he couldn't guarantee it.

After chatting for a few minutes, Zhou Qiongyue felt that these two people should follow her and Yuan Bohua and live in the manor for a while.

This time Zhou Qiongyue didn't say anything else.

Yuan Chaokang and Prince Rong were both at the farm, and the happiest one was the little guy Yuan Yixuan.

Every day, Yuan Chaokang and Prince Rong would play with her in different ways, and she would happily fly around the four of them like a little butterfly.

What Zhou Qiongyue didn't expect was that a few days later, Princess Yongchun, Yuan Chaochang, Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhi all came.

Zhou Qiongyue: Am I going to form a clique on Zhuangzi for personal gain?

Yuan Bohua looked at the relatives in the room and was in a daze. What on earth was there on his farm?

"Your Highness, Big Brother, Fifth Brother, has something happened to Yuan An?" Zhou Qiongyue's question was her first thought.

Princess Yongchun, Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhiquan all shook their heads in unison.

Princess Yongchun smiled and explained, "You're overthinking it. Yuan An is fine! This palace and my husband met Zhizhong Bo and Lord Zhou outside the city gate, so we came together.

The main reason is that everyone in Yuan'an is very quiet now, and I feel depressed, so I want to come and play with you for a few days."

Zhou Zhiyi also explained with a smile, "My fifth brother and I just missed you. We finally got some time off, so we wanted to come to the farm to see you and the prince.

I just ran into His Highness when I left the city gate. He and his wife also wanted to come to your place, so we came together."

Zhou Zhiquan listened to his elder brother's explanation and nodded from time to time.

Yuan Chaochang hurriedly tried to make his presence felt, "I was almost at the village when the princess' aunt and uncles caught up with me."

Zhou Qiongyue was very happy when she saw all the relatives in the room. She immediately and happily told Gulan and the others to prepare food.

Since the emperor was still in mourning, Zhou Qiongyue ordered people to prepare vegetarian food.

Even though the food was vegetarian, everyone enjoyed it happily. There was no distinction between men and women, and everyone sat at the same table, chatting while eating.

After everyone finished lunch, they moved outside to drink tea in the sun.

Drinking tea under the warm sun, chatting about trivial matters and the younger generations in their families, away from the disputes in the court, everyone was in a relaxed state.

Zhou Zhiyi, Zhou Zhiquan, and Yuan Chaochang waited until it was almost dark before leaving on horseback. If they hadn't had to attend the morning court tomorrow, they wouldn't have wanted to leave.

Princess Yongchun and her husband were idle people just like Zhou Qiongyue and her friends, so of course they also stayed at Zhou Qiongyue's farm.

Originally Zhou Qiongyue thought that no one would come recently, but the next day, Queen Mother Duan Jianing also stayed at her manor in private.

Zhou Qiongyue: What kind of magic does my Zhuangzi have?

In fact, although Zhou Qiongyue and Duan Jianing have kept in touch over the years, their relationship has not developed into a very close one.

The main reason was that Zhou Qiongyue had everything she wanted, and she didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the palace. She was quite surprised that the Queen Mother was going to stay at her farm for a few days.

The Queen Mother lived in the manor, and Prince Rong and Yuan Chaokang were afraid of trouble, so they lived directly in Prince Rong's manor next door.

Yuan Bohua thought about it and felt that it would be inconvenient for him to live here after all, since she was the empress dowager, so he moved directly to Prince Rong’s farm next door.

So the masters of the manor were instantly only Queen Mother Duan Jianing, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Yixuan.

At present, Zhou Qiongyue has nothing to ask of the Queen Mother, so Zhou Qiongyue's attitude towards the Queen Mother is similar to before. Every day, she brings her granddaughter to accompany the Queen Mother for tea and chat, and the three of them get along harmoniously.
