Chapter 1120 I Want to Go Out and Have a Look
Su Xuan almost threw away the teacup in her hand. Bah, how dare she dream of marrying her children to each other's parents-in-law? Now everyone in the Yao family is avoiding her. The reason she could meet Shen Yile today was because of the face of the Shen Mansion, otherwise she would not have met her.
Shen Yile's face froze because Su Xuan's expression was too obvious. She grabbed her son's wrist and said, "Look at me. I said something stupid in a moment of happiness."
Su Xuan didn't want to offend Shen Yile, but she was also quite sad in her heart. Shen Yile was so glorious in the past, but now Shen Yile said, "My mother-in-law and father-in-law decide the marriages of our children. I really don't dare to agree to it."
Saying this also saves Shen Yile's face.
Shen Yile nodded to show that she knew. She felt very sorry in her heart. This marriage with the Zhou family was really good, especially for Zhou Laosi's future. Zhou Laoer and Mr. Zhou could plan for it, not to mention Zhou Laosi who was very good at studying. "It's getting late. I'll go home with the children first."
Su Xuan stood up to see them off, and she didn't try to keep her. It would have been awkward to continue chatting.
After Changzhi and the others left, he came out and hugged his daughter, humming with great displeasure, "How old is our daughter? I want to choose a good husband for her in the future, but I don't agree if it's beyond my control."
Su Xuan felt that her husband was a bit like what her mother-in-law called a daughter-con. At first, she didn't understand what that meant, but after her mother-in-law explained it, she finally understood. She looked at her husband with a look of indifference, as if her son-in-law was an enemy. However, she was still very excited, "It's true that I can't let that stinky boy get away with it."
Inside Shen Yile's carriage, the little boy was reluctant to leave, "Mom, my sister is so quiet and pretty."
Shen Yile touched her son's head and said, "I'll find you a better one in the future."
The little boy didn't understand yet, but he knew how to read facial expressions since he was a child. "Mom, why don't I have a sister?"
Shen Yile touched her belly and was also confused. Her husband treated her well after being married for many years, but she had never been pregnant. The doctor said she was healthy.
Inside the palace, Rong Chuan went to the Imperial Hospital first, and then went to see his mother. "I met Zhang Yang today, and he asked me to come and see the child."
The queen pressed her eyebrows and said, "This child is very noisy and can't leave people alone. He is very annoying. He just went to bed. You go and take a look."
Rongchuan followed the female official and returned soon, "It does look like Zhang Yang."
The Queen signaled the female official to leave. She did not hide the truth from her own son, "This child is not Zhang Yang's. Zhang Yang has no offspring. This child was sent to the Fifth Prince's mansion by the Zhang family."
Rong Chuan took in a lot of information and paused for a while. Ah, "Zhang Yang had a gloomy face today. Did he find out that there was something wrong with his body?"
The queen smiled and said nonchalantly, "Whether he knows it now or not has no impact on the overall situation. What's important now is this child. Son, it will be soon. When everything is over, you can come back. How about I make you the King of Qin then?"
Rong Chuan was confused and repeated, "King Qin?"
The queen smiled and said, "Yes, your father told me."
Her life has been quite tortuous, but as long as the ending is good, she can ignore the process and only look at the result.
Rong Chuan's mind was buzzing. He hadn't figured it out yet. Looking at his happy mother, he couldn't express his thoughts. He sighed and said, "Son has something else to do. I'll take my leave now."
The queen nodded, and waited for her youngest son to leave with a smile on her face. She knew her son's hesitation and the thoughts of his father and third brother, but he was her most beloved son, and she would not allow it. Her son had already gone through the drama of recognizing his relatives while living in the Ning family. If he returned to the royal family, future unofficial history would certainly cast doubt on his life experience. The youngest son had sacrificed enough for the eldest son.
At the Shi family, Yao Yao invited a doctor to see the old man. He was playing outside with the children yesterday. He played for a long time and there was no charcoal fire in the cool room outside, so he fell ill all of a sudden.
Yao Yao looked coldly at the kneeling woman, and said to the steward in charge of the father-in-law's yard, "You should deal with the irresponsible ones. The old man must recover."
The manager said, "Yes."
Doctors like Yao Yao examined the patient's pulse and knew that he would be fine after a few days of recuperation, so they felt relieved. They left the yard and asked about their husband's mother who was paralyzed in bed. They gathered their clothes and thought that sometimes being alive is not scary, but what is scary is that you can't die even if you want to.
This is a critical period for my husband, and nothing must happen to the two old people.
Seven days passed in a blink of an eye. The businesses controlled by Su Xuan had been cleaned up and were waiting for the policy to come out so that they could apply for a business directly.
After Zhulan knew about it, she stopped worrying about it. There had been complaints in the capital recently. The ladies were all busy in the Marquis' Mansion, and the Marquis' Mansion also kept merchants.
The concubine not only had to take care of the Marquis's Mansion, but also had to help the Song family deal with the entire Ning family.
Xuemei had some free time and rested for a few days. Her tanned face became much whiter. Xuemei said, "Xuehan is too busy."
Zhu Lan smiled and said, "She is not the head wife of the family. She is just helping out. The Song family is the busiest."
The family has a large population and many branches. The married women all bring dowries with them. Although they have no direct contact with the merchants, they are still registered under the names of servants. This makes things complicated. In addition, for the merchants controlled in the name of the family, not only do they have to appease the clan members, but they also have to make calculations, which is very troublesome.
Zhulan asked Jiang Sheng, "Jiang Sheng also won the prize this time. He didn't come back with us. He went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors. He should be back now."
Xuemei smiled and nodded, "We have already set out, and will arrive in a few days."
She is already very satisfied now. Her husband was lucky this time, as he passed the exam and was the last one to be admitted. Her husband also knows his own limitations. This time, it was because her fourth brother helped her with tutoring in private. It would be useless to continue taking the exam, and her husband didn't want to get involved. It was good enough for him to be admitted.
Zhulan saw that the eldest daughter was smiling happily. In the whole family, the eldest daughter was the one with the least ideas. Now that she has become a mistress, she is very satisfied.
Zhang Jinghong from the Ministry of Revenue said, "Today, there are many memorials criticizing the King of Liang."
Zhou Shuren was in a good mood, "You are well-informed."
Zhang Jinghong rubbed his nose. Since the King of Qi became an idle prince, he had more contact with him, so he was well-informed. "Not bad. I heard that a lot of the folds were true."
Zhou Shuren said quietly, "It has offended the public."
If everyone is investigating Prince Liang, it would be strange if they couldn't find anything.
Zhang Jinghong found that when he told Lord Zhou about the plight of the King of Liang, Lord Zhou was in a very good mood. He was also happy to ask about the King of Liang. "Sir, if His Highness the King of Liang can't bear it anymore, what should we do?"
Zhou Shuren glanced at Zhang Jinghong and said, "Prince Liang will carry on."
As long as there is pressure from above, Prince Liang will be fine. As for settling accounts in the future, that is the Crown Prince's business.
Shi's house, Shi Qing returned home and went to the old man's yard, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Mr. Shi was very afraid of his son and lowered his head. "I have been locked up in the mansion for many years. I have nothing else to do but to go out and see the world. I want to buy something for my grandson."
After testing my son a little bit, he wanted more. No one wants to be locked up forever, so he wanted to go out and take a look.
