Chapter 1525: Dislike

The next day at noon, Zhao came back from Ning's house. "Mother, I didn't stay in Ning's house for long. I went out to pick up the custom-made jewelry. This is what my husband made for you. Do you like it?"

Zhulan took out the hairpin from the box and said, "You two should keep this big ruby ​​for your children. It doesn't matter whether I wear it or not at my age."

She liked staying at home more and more, reading a book every day, cutting some flowers from the garden to arrange them, teaching her granddaughters, or taking care of things at the orphanage. She lived a comfortable and free life.

Zhao said, "This batch of gemstones was sent back from abroad. We selected the ones with good quality and made them into jewelry for each of the children."

Zhulan put down her hairpin and asked, "How is Yu?"

Zhao sighed, "It's very bad. Now I can only lie down. I am so thin that I am unrecognizable."

"Hey, don't get sick."

Zhao added, "I also saw Ning Ming, and this child is also very thin."

He doesn't have the spirit and energy of his own children at all.

Zhulan chatted with Zhao for a while, and then Zhao got up and went back.

In Ming Teng's yard, Ming Teng was beaten and couldn't lie down. He could only lie on his side or on his stomach. Ran Xun couldn't help but stare at Ming Teng's back.

Ming Teng said unhappily, "Come on, have you never seen me get hurt?"

Ran Xun, "Marquis Zhou is really ruthless."

Ming Teng, "It is indeed my fault."

"You can't leave the house for a while."

Ming Teng tilted his head, "Don't talk about me, talk about you. You should calm down after getting married."

"I've been incarcerated for a long time and my mind has been meditating. There aren't many places I can go now."

Ming Teng had no sympathy, "It's your own fault. By the way, your eldest son has been raised in the manor?"

Ran Xun spread his hands and said, "I can't make the decision. Even if I could, I wouldn't take him back. If I really did, I would be harming him."

"You did that yourself."

Ran Xun sighed quietly. He did feel differently about his first child. But the difference between a legitimate child and an illegitimate child meant that the legitimate child was more important.

Ran Xun asked, "Aren't you in a hurry?"

"What are you in a hurry for?"

"My child."

Ming Teng rolled his eyes, "Children are destiny, I'm not in a hurry anyway."

Ran Xun was jealous. Ming Teng had no one to force him and could be his own boss, but he couldn't.

Liu Jia waited until Ran Xun left before she came out of the house and said to her husband who was sunbathing, "Let's go back to the house. It's too hot outside."

Ming Teng pulled his wife and said, "Let's go sit under the shade of the tree for a while."

As he said this, he motioned to the old woman to carry him over.

Liu Jia actually didn't like Ran Xun. She had always had a bad impression of Ran Xun, especially after he had a concubine's eldest son. However, because she was her eldest sister-in-law, she didn't say much.

Ming Teng could naturally sense that his wife disliked Ran Xun, so he held her hand and said, "How other people live their lives has little to do with us. When I'm busy, Ran Xun will rarely come over."

Liu Jia was stunned for a moment, "I thought I covered it up well."

Ming Teng laughed, "We are husband and wife. I understand you better than you think."

Liu Jia was very happy. Nothing could make her happier than her husband understanding her. This showed that he cared about her. "When you get better, you have to take me out for a walk."

Ming Teng, "Okay, Zhangzhou is close to the capital, I'll take you to Zhangzhou, and we'll travel around the mountains and rivers along the way."

Liu Jia has never left Beijing since she was born. "I thought you were just taking me around Beijing."

Ming Teng smiled and said, "It was just a spur-of-the-moment idea."

Liu Jia calculated when her husband's injury would heal, her brows furrowed, "I need to pack more luggage."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

He rejuvenated his lively wife, who was left alone in the empty room, and felt sorry for her. He was not Mingrui. He finally met his fiancée, but he actually brought his fiancée to class. Although he heard that the girl from the Lin family was still very happy, he still felt that Mingrui was unromantic.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, seven days have passed. Mingteng's injuries have almost healed, and the news that Mingteng wants to go to Zhangzhou has also spread.

Changzhong wanted to go, Minghui’s leg had recovered well and he also wanted to go, and in the end there were several more people.

Zhulan sent Mingteng and his party away. Zhou Shuren was worried about his daughter-in-law. When he came back and saw that she was in good spirits, he said, "I was worried for nothing."

"My children are all grown up, I'm used to it. Besides, they are not going on business trips, they are just going to see Yushuang, I don't feel reluctant to let them go."

Zhou Shuren, "Yes, the children have grown up and are no longer the children who revolve around us."

Zhulan was very satisfied with the painting she had made. She turned around and asked, "What happened today? Why do I feel like you have too many emotions?"

Zhou Shuren motioned for him to change into his official uniform and come out to talk later.

Zhulan waited for Shuren to come out and pushed the cool tea over to him, "Drink it."

Zhou Shuren drank his tea and then said, "The Wang family has hit back at the Qi family in the past few days. They are still thinking about it."

Zhu Lan was not surprised. "Power can seduce people. Who doesn't want the glory and power of the Wen family?"

"Is it so difficult to stick to your heart?"

Zhou Shuren had worked with Wang Yi before, and he admired Wang Yi, so his emotions were even more complicated.

Zhulan, "It's difficult. That's the throne, that's the imperial power. We've changed too much. The beginning of a prosperous era makes the throne even more attractive. Of course, there are also reasons for the emperor. The emperor is in his prime, but the prince has grown up, which gives the princes hope."

Zhou Shuren sneered, "Imperial power, imperial power."

Zhulan didn't want to talk about the imperial power anymore, so she talked about the orphanage. "Recently, several children from the village dug a pond to raise fish."

"It would be nice to plant some more lotus roots."

Zhu Lan smiled and said, "The vegetables in the shed came down early. I made a lot of money from buying vegetables recently. The food has become more fishy lately."

"Well done. By the way, have you been to the Royal Orphanage?"

"No, you went there?"

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "I haven't been there either. I just heard from the prince that the children are all good."

Zhulan, "The royal family wants obedience and loyalty."

"Yeah, I'm thinking of taking a class during the break. Will you come with me?"

Zhulan, "Okay, I'll go see the Royal Orphanage too."

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed and Zhou Lao Da and his wife finally returned to Beijing. But the result was good. Minghui, whom they missed the most, was gone.

Zhulan waited until Li calmed down before she told her about Mingteng. "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I was afraid to tell you when there was no result, and you were worried too."

Li smiled, "Ming Teng has always been blessed."

After hearing this, Zhulan realized that Li didn't know how serious avalanches were. To Li, who had never seen a snowy mountain, an avalanche was just some accumulated snow. She moved her lips but finally didn't explain. Forget it, it was a blessing not to know, otherwise Li would have scared himself.

Boss Zhou is heartless without a wife. If the avalanche was simple, his mother wouldn't be afraid of them and worry about it. If his mother doesn't say anything, he won't ask.

Zhulan inquired about the Li family's situation and learned that the couple were in good health. She was happy for them and signaled the eldest brother and his wife to go back and rest. They hurried back, saying that they had worked hard.
