Chapter 1132 Master
Xue Han motioned the nurse to carry the maid downstairs, and waited until there were no servants in the room before she said, "Even though she is sick, she still holds the Buddhist scriptures in her hands, and she never leaves the Buddhist beads. If she wasn't so sick that she couldn't get out of bed, she would definitely kneel down and recite the scriptures."
Zhulan understood, "This is because the heart can't bear the torment, and is looking for spiritual sustenance!"
Xue Han felt that what her mother said made sense, and continued, "My sister-in-law is afraid that people will become nuns if they can't get over it."
Zhu Lan smiled, "It's impossible for him to become a monk. Ning Hui's body is not good, and the temple doesn't have that much medicine to provide him. He wants to recite sutras to atone for his sins, but he doesn't want to die easily, so he won't become a monk."
Xue Han was stunned for a moment, "Mom is still the one who sees things clearly."
Zhulan thought to herself, if Ning Hui really wanted to die, he would not have been alive when the old lady passed away. Now he is not only alive, but also has the energy to recite scriptures, which means he is reluctant to die.
Xue Han sat for a while and then left. Zhu Lan took the candles and made fake plum blossoms. In previous years, she made small ones, but this year she made a big one. It was almost finished and she was waiting for the servant to move it to the yard.
Zhulan sat by the window and admired the flowers. "It's not the season for plum blossoms to bloom yet, but they're already blooming in our house, although they're fake."
Mrs. Song smiled and said, "This is so close, it's just like the real thing."
Zhulan was smiling widely, it really looked like the real thing. She was surprised to see the snowflakes. It was quite appropriate that it was snowing. Zhulan stared outside in a daze.
Zhulan came back to her senses when she saw Butler Ding coming in with a card. She took the card and found out that her step-uncle, Lord Yu, had bought a house in the capital and wanted to have a home in the New Year.

Zhulan touched the post. She hadn't touched it since the last time this cheap uncle came. "Prepare a generous gift."
Yu Yun's new home is a two-story house in South City. Yu Yun stood in the yard, feeling very dissatisfied and disgusted. He had a deep-seated dissatisfaction in his heart. South City was mostly populated by businessmen, and this was not the home he wanted.
It’s a pity that Xicheng is not something he can sell. He is still an envoy of a foreign country, although he has resigned now. In the end, he can only buy in Nancheng after careful selection.
Yu Yin confirmed that there was nothing to buy, so he asked the housekeeper to look after the house and wait for an auspicious day to move in.
Rong Yuyun walked out of the house and walked on the prosperous streets of South City. He had an idea to buy some lanterns and other things for the New Year himself. This New Year, he was not alone. He also had people he wanted to be connected to by blood. Thinking of his blood relationship, Yuyun pursed his lips.
Yu Yun entered a lantern shop. With the development of maritime trade and exchanges with various countries, the lantern shop continued to innovate. The exquisite zodiac lanterns were made of colored glaze, but they were surprisingly expensive. However, when hung up, they were brighter than ordinary lanterns in the dark, and the powerful and wealthy would also buy them.
Yu Yun had a lot of money in his hands. He had been alone for so many years, and as he wanted to come back, he had sent the money to the capital in batches.
Yu Yun frowned and couldn't help but take another look at the old man who passed by. When he wanted to take a few more looks, there were too many people and he couldn't find him anymore.
Instead, he saw several grandchildren of the Zhou family in the shop. Yes, he knew them. He had secretly waited for them at the gate of the academy before.
Mingyun was holding a glass lantern with a rabbit attribute in her hand and she fell in love with it at first sight.
Ming Teng blinked his eyes, "Brother, did you buy this for Sister Wan?"
Mingyun neither admitted nor denied it. He touched the glass rabbit's ears and turned to find the shopkeeper to pay the bill. Thirty taels of silver was really expensive.
Ming Teng took a deep breath. It was such a big deal. He couldn't bear to spend the money. He also had a fiancée and she was still young. Well, he couldn't bear to spend the money just for a gift. He thought about it and bought an ordinary but exquisite lantern for less than one or two taels of silver.
Ran Xun was speechless, "You treat your fiancée like this?"
It was less than one or two taels of silver, but it was something that Zhao Mingteng could afford.
Ming Teng rolled his eyes and said, "I'm still young, this is just fine."
Yu Yun listened carefully and couldn't help laughing. He really liked this sneaky boy.
In a blink of an eye, it was the auspicious day for Yuyun to move. Changyi did not take a day off, so Changli went on behalf of the Zhou family and delivered Changyi's gift as well.
Time flies, and as the New Year draws to a close, officials also have to stop writing and take a vacation.
Zhou Shuren came out of the Zhengdian Hall with brisk steps. He would have a day off tomorrow. Halfway out of the palace, Zhou Shuren met several emperor's grandsons who were studying in the palace. The oldest was the eldest son of the crown prince, the eldest grandson of the emperor, who was eight years old this year. Then there was the eldest son of Prince Qi, who was seven years old. The younger one should be the second son of the crown prince born out of wedlock, who seemed to be five years old this year. The youngest.
Some of them were the study companions of the emperor's grandchildren.
Zhou Shuren could feel these children looking at him. The eldest grandson of the emperor asked, "Master Zhou, are you going to leave the palace?"
Zhou Shuren had a lot of thoughts in his mind. The next generation of the royal family had grown up. Thinking of the rumors his daughter-in-law told him, he sighed in his heart but smiled on his face, "Yes, has the eldest grandson finished school?"
The emperor's eldest grandson, Zhang Xuhao, nodded, "School ends early today."
Zhang Xuhao was very curious about Lord Zhou. He had been brought up by his father since he was a child and had heard a lot of praise for Lord Zhou. He couldn't help but look at Lord Zhou a few more times. Seeing Lord Zhou looking at him with a smile, he couldn't help but smile.
Zhou Shuren glanced at the others. The Crown Prince's second son pursed his lips. Although he was young, he already had a lot on his mind. He sighed that the royal children were all precocious. The Crown Prince already had several sons.
Inside the palace, the royal family and the crown prince knew that Zhou Shuren had met with several children. The crown prince tentatively said, "Lord Zhou is very knowledgeable and has a broad vision. The children he taught are all very outstanding. It would be good if he could give some guidance to Xuhao."
The emperor hooked his fingertips. He had to admit that the teaching of his grandson was not as strict as that of his sons. "You want Zhou Shuren to teach Xuhao, right?"
Not to mention the others, forget about Prince Qi’s. Prince Qi is an idle prince, so it would be safer if his child is not outstanding. As for the prince’s illegitimate son, he cannot surpass the eldest son.
The prince smiled and said, "I do have this idea. Master Zhou is indeed a good master."
The emperor said nothing. He said that a good master is a good master, but not suitable.
The prince didn't get an answer, but he wasn't in a hurry. He just wanted to reveal more of his thoughts.
At the Crown Prince's Mansion, the Crown Princess learned from her son that she had met Lord Zhou, and asked with a smile, "Do you like Lord Zhou?"
She was still somewhat clear about some of the prince's thoughts.
Xu Hao nodded, "Master Zhou is very powerful."
The Crown Princess smiled and motioned for her son to change his clothes.
At the Shi family, Yao Yao was helpless. After his father-in-law went out once, he wanted to go out more often. "No, Dad, you can't go out again before the New Year."
Mr. Shi felt regretful, knowing that it was useless to say anything. He had not been out of the house for many years and was eager to go out. He had followed his father to travel around the country when he was in his teens. He sighed, the capital city had changed so much now, he wanted to see more, but he could only tell himself not to rush, as if he could go out once, it would be easier to have opportunities in the future.
