Chapter 1195 The person is missing
Zhou Shuren did not dare to delay returning home after leaving the yamen. His wife was too smart. If he dared to hide, she would definitely notice something was wrong. It was really difficult for him to have such a smart wife at home. It was not easy for him to even tell lies.
Zhulan was worried about him for the whole afternoon, and finally when Zhou Shuren came back, she muttered, "You, please reply to me if you have any news or not. You made me worry about him so much. Do you have any news?"
Zhou Shuren calmly changed his clothes, "There is indeed some news. Rongchuan is not in Pinggang. He must have another mission. The mission must be very important. In order not to make a fuss, the news keeps coming."
Zhulan was relieved. As long as she knew what the person was doing, she would be fine. "I'll tell my daughter-in-law when we have dinner."
Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief; the half-truth was finally over.
Zhu Lan looked at Zhou Shuren who was changing clothes carefully, frowning, "Did you do something behind my back?"
Women's intuition is so accurate!
Zhou Shuren changed his clothes quickly, "How can I hide what I am doing from you? I have been staying in the Ministry of Revenue every day. I am very annoyed recently. Mr. Xiao drinks tea in my room all day long, which makes it difficult for me to concentrate."
Zhulan raised her voice a lot, "Really?"
"real."
Zhulan still felt a little weird in her heart, but she stopped thinking about it if she couldn't think of anything. Anyway, if there was something wrong, she would catch him sooner or later. When she caught him, she would settle the accounts. The smile on her face deepened, "Okay, let's eat."
Zhou Shuren, "."
In fact, he was quite afraid of his wife smiling like that, because it was a smile of vengeance!
The next day, Zhou Shuren and his second son went to the government office together. Changyi tried to hold back, but couldn't help but whispered, "Dad, when can this Ningyang kid go back to live in the Ningguo Mansion?"
Zhou Shuren, "Hmm? Why are you concerned about Ningyang?"
Chang Yi curled his lips. If he hadn't heard from his wife and observed carefully for a few days, he wouldn't have noticed it. He said in a bad tone, "This kid really likes to get close to Yudie."
Zhou Shuren really didn't have time to care about his family, so he perked up and asked, "Have you confirmed it?"
"Well, my son has been under someone's watch for a few days. When he is resting, he will look for Jade Butterfly."
Zhou Shuren was surprised, "You are not happy? That is the Ning Guogong Mansion. You should know that the Ning family sent Ning Yang here. Even if Ning Yang is Ning Zhiqi's second son, he is still a son of the Duke's Mansion. As long as he is a good person, he will not lack resources in the future."
Chang Yi spread his hands, "Dad, the Ningguo Mansion sent Ningyang here for the daughters of the third and fourth sons, not for the daughter of our second son."
He knew everything, so he chose between the third and fourth sons to be his disciple. If the third son had not been on a mission in Xuzhou, the Ningguo Mansion would have valued the third son the most.
Zhou Shuren, "You can see clearly."
Chang Yi chuckled, "This is the truth. My son doesn't need to see it clearly. My son's starting point is low and his future is uncertain. The Duke's Mansion wants to find a father-in-law with a bright future for Ningyang. I can't compare to the third and fourth brothers, so my son really doesn't want Yudie to have anything to do with the Duke's Mansion."
He was nice to the eldest daughter, but she was too sensible and nice. She always held herself to high standards as the eldest granddaughter of the Zhou family. And because the second branch was weak, the eldest daughter dared not make any mistakes. This meant that even if he, as a father, wanted to care about her, the daughter would not give him the opportunity.
But the little lady is different. She is difficult to raise since she was born. When she grows up, she becomes a talkative and coquettish girl. She is not as good-looking as the older lady, but she is lively and he is under a lot of pressure. The little lady is the happy fruit. The five fingers are of different lengths, and the little lady's is small, so naturally they are crooked.
In the past, he had been a bastard, but now he didn't think about it anymore. He was very satisfied with the marriage of the eldest daughter. Being a woman was not easy, and he just hoped that the daughter would live a good life in the future, unlike his eldest brother who kept nagging him from time to time that his niece Yu Lu would have too many frustrations in the future.
Zhou Shuren didn't know what his son was thinking, but he was right. "Well, it's really not suitable to live at home."
Then he added: "You can also try harder."
Chang Yi smiled and shook his head, "Actually, my son thinks Xuemei is living a good life, really."
Even if he works hard to have a good future, he still hopes that Yudie can live a smooth and comfortable life like Xuemei. He envies Xuemei.
Zhou Shuren thought of the eldest daughter. Not to mention the envy in his son's eyes, he was also jealous. The eldest daughter was really free. His son-in-law was pregnant and didn't study so hard. He spent more time with the eldest daughter. The two of them went out of the city from time to time. With Jiang Du and Jiang Miao at home, the twins were obedient and the youngest one didn't make trouble. They lived a very comfortable life.
At Zhou's residence, Zhulan heard the message from Jianyan and said to Xuehan, "Go back to the Duke's residence and tell Song that Ningyang will move back to the Duke's residence in the future."
Zhulan thought for a moment and said, "If Song asks why, you just need to answer that the Zhou Mansion has been restless recently."
Xue Han, "Okay, my daughter will go back now."
Half an hour later, Xue Han explained her purpose at the Ningguo Mansion. Song did ask, and Xue Han followed her mother's instructions, adding, "The capital has been unstable recently, and my sister-in-law knows that my family is related to the royal family, so they are keeping an eye on us. So it's better for me to come back and live in Ningyang."
Song didn't think much about it. Her sister-in-law had already made it very clear. She had been thinking about it recently. "By the way, did Linxi enter the palace yesterday?"
Xue Han's eyes deepened. This sister-in-law paid close attention to her. It was also true that she could enter the palace at this time. It was indeed big news. "Yes, she entered the palace."
Song had something to ask, but she didn't ask in the end. She wanted to know, how is the Empress now? The Crown Prince was under house arrest, and the Empress was copying scriptures. She felt uneasy, but her grandfather didn't let her go to find out.
Xue Han hurriedly asked another question, "How is everything going in the mansion recently?"
Song smiled and said, "It's good. Now the house is much quieter and I can do other things."
Xue Han smiled. Before the Crown Prince was under house arrest, the Ningguo Mansion had guests visiting every day even though it was a low-key place. Now it is indeed deserted.
At this time, Mrs. Yu came. When she saw Xue Han, she was particularly friendly and said, "I haven't seen my third sister-in-law for a long time. Come and show her to me. She is getting more and more beautiful."
Xue Han got used to it. Since her family had the status of royal relatives, their family background instantly became noble. Every time the second sister-in-law saw her, she would flatter her, "Second sister-in-law is also radiant, which shows that she is living a good life."
Yu thought to herself, what can I do if I don’t live a good life!
In the afternoon, in the palace, the prince could no longer hide the secret because according to the news brought by Feipigeon, he found the boat that Rongchuan was on, but there was no one on the boat!
The emperor was so shocked when he heard the news that he said, "Please say it again. I didn't hear you clearly just now."
The prince's eyes were red and bloodshot. He went to the palace immediately after receiving the news. "The boat that Rongchuan was on was found, but there was no one on board."
