Chapter 180 Zhang Sanni
When Zhou Shuren came back in the evening, Zhulan waited until the whole family had rested. She and Zhou Shuren went back to the house and asked, "Did the county magistrate say anything when Lin returned?"
"The day after tomorrow, the county master will be free. He said he has never met our two sons who are studying, and he hopes to meet them."
Zhu Lan understood, "Dong Chuchu has taken a fancy to our son, but I don't know if it's Chang Zhi or Chang Lian."
Zhou Shuren was a little tired. "We'll know when the time comes. Please massage my shoulders. I've been writing articles all day and my shoulders are sore."
The crying child gets the milk. He has long known Zhulan's soft-hearted nature. He is not stupid enough to carry it all by himself. He is tired if he is tired. Besides, Zhulan's massage technique is really good. He doesn't want to miss this benefit.
Zhulan motioned Zhou Shuren to lie down. She learned massage techniques from her grandmother, and she didn't learn much. When she was young, she often gave massages to her elders, but when she grew up, she really didn't have time, so she stopped. Unexpectedly, her elders didn't give her many massages, but Zhou Shuren enjoyed it.
Zhou Shuren's shoulders were very stiff. He was really tired. Zhulan felt distressed. Zhou Shuren had to constantly do his best to show his worth. He had to be even more cautious when he was outside. She had been a flatterer before and knew the feeling of being flattered and being ridiculed. Among the two of them, Zhou Shuren had contributed the most to this family. After a while, Zhou Shuren fell asleep in a daze.
Zhulan restrained her hands and untied Zhou Shuren's hair. His hair had been hanging down for a day and his scalp was sore from untying it. She couldn't help but curl her lips as her fingertips scraped Zhou Shuren's hair. After Zhou Shuren came here, he paid special attention to taking care of his hair, for he was afraid that he would have a mid-life crisis like modern people and become bald with all his hair falling out!
Zhulan's home was cozy, but many families in Zhoujia Village were not sleepy at all. Patriarch Zhou was not just looking at the surface. He felt that it was not just a simple visit. He kept thinking about why they went to Zhou Shuren's home.
At Wang Ru's house next door, Wang Ru had trouble sleeping. Her money and jewelry were gone, leaving only two taels of silver. She knew Shi Qingqian's warning to her how weak she was, and she hated it for a whole day. But then the wife of the county master came to visit next door. She felt like fire was burning in her heart, and she hated why it wasn't Zhou Xuehan who wore it!
The next morning, just after Zhulan's family finished their meal, Zhou Wang came and said, "I wanted to come over yesterday, but your uncle stopped me, fearing that I would disturb the wife of the county master. We are the only ones in the room. Tell your aunt, is the wife of the county master really just here to be a guest?"
Zhulan had known that Zhou Wang would come today, and she had guessed that Zhou Wang would ask about it, but she had never expected that she would ask so directly. This was difficult to deal with, "Auntie, I'm not lying to you. There is indeed something, but I can't tell you. You will know in a few days. It has nothing to do with our family."
Mrs. Zhou Wang was glad that Zhulan didn't give her a perfunctory answer. If Mrs. Yang had given her a perfunctory answer today, she would have felt uncomfortable. She smiled and said, "With your words, my heart can finally be at ease. It's all because of your uncle's tendency to think too much. He was so worried that he didn't sleep well tonight. I was also worried about it, so I shamelessly asked you about it."
Zhulan kept smiling, "If Shuren didn't go to the county today, he would definitely go to look for uncle. But I said the same thing to my aunt, but she had to make the trip."
But I was thinking in my heart that the smarter people are, the more they are willing to think. I wonder what the patriarch is thinking!
After receiving the letter, Zhou Wangshi did not stay any longer. The old man was waiting for her at home. She stood up and said, "Auntie, I will go back first. Don't worry, I am not a talkative person. I will not tell anyone what you said."
Zhulan told Zhou Wangshi directly because she trusted her. Zhou Wangshi knew what to say and what not to say. "I'll take my aunt home."
When they arrived at the door of the house, Zhou Wangshi exclaimed, "Isn't this the daughter of Zhang Datie's family?"
Zhulan had never seen the girl from Zhang Datie's family. The last time she went to Zhang Datie's house, she didn't see the children. Later, when the children of the Zhang family came to look for Rongchuan, Zhulan didn't see him in the house. If Zhou Wangshi hadn't reminded her, Zhulan really wouldn't know him. She looked at the girl standing at the door of her house in confusion, "Are you looking for Rongchuan?"
Zhou Wangshi was in no hurry to leave, she pouted, she knew very well that Zhang Datie and his wife had ordered their child to find Rongchuan, something that would not benefit them at all, yet they were still unwilling to let their child go to their house.
Mrs. Zhou Wang was filled with emotion. Rongchuan was the most unfortunate child in the village. She was afraid that he would die at any time. Who could have thought that Rongchuan would have such luck? He had a hard life in the first ten years, but with a change of luck, he could eat well, dress well, no longer have to work, and could even read and write. He also grew up a little, like a little prince. Every time she saw him, she could not remember Rongchuan's miserable appearance, but only remembered Zhang Rongchuan of Dong Li.
Zhang Sanni pinched the corner of her clothes cautiously. She was afraid of Li Zhengniang, so she lowered her head and dared not say a word.
Zhu Lan saw that this person was not looking for Rong Chuan, "You came to see me?"
