Chapter 317 It’s time to come back

Zhou Shuren held Zhulan's hand and said, "Don't worry about it."

"I don't want to worry about it, but I can't help thinking about it!"

She completely regarded herself as her original self. She was concerned about all the children. Even though Changzhi had someone to take care of him and she didn't have to worry about him, she sometimes wondered if Changzhi was staying up late reading again.

Zhou Shuren never thought about it. Even though he cared a lot about his children, he still didn't care about them. Three of his sons had started families and one of them was taken care of by his master. He really didn't care about them!

Zhulan was worried about her home, and Changyi and the others were also worried about Zhulan and Zhou Shuren.

It rained a lot in Lijia Village, but fortunately the autumn harvest in Lijia Village started early and the harvest is almost done. The snow plum moon is about to come out.

Zhao and Xuemei chatted, "I wonder if my parents have arrived in the capital."

Xuemei patted her little son in her arms and said, "It rained heavily a few days ago, so the roads must be difficult to travel on. I guess they haven't arrived yet."

Zhao had been worrying ever since she started living on her own. This time she had no time to think about other things. She had to take care of her elder sister during her confinement and worry about her husband's autumn harvest. What gave her the most headache was thinking about what to cook for three meals a day.

In the past, these were all the thoughts of my eldest sister-in-law. She was only responsible for helping out, and with my mother taking care of the household, she really didn't have to worry about anything.

Now she is worried all the time. It's been less than a month and she feels exhausted. Everyone says that they have a good life and can be the boss of the family, but she doesn't care. She is tired of worrying after just a few days.

Zhao looked at the child who had grown up twice on the kang and took a deep breath. She still had something to worry about. "It's almost time for me to leave the confinement period. Where do you think we should hold the full-month banquet?"

No matter where it is held, she will be the one who takes care of it.

Xuemei also felt a little uncomfortable. She felt at ease during her confinement period when her mother was at home. After her mother left, her second sister-in-law was also nice to her, but she felt uncomfortable. "It's already very troublesome for the second sister-in-law. Let's do it at the old house."

Zhao was calculating in his mind how many tables to host. He really missed the days when he didn't have to worry about anything and could think about anything.

In Pingzhou City, Chang Lian returned from Jiang Mansion. Dong came out to greet him, "You are back. What did your brother-in-law ask you to do?"

Chang Lian was very happy. "My brother-in-law said that he will return to Beijing next year and has already packed his luggage."

Dong, "Then can we also go to the capital to reunite with our parents?"

Chang Lian was silent. "My brother-in-law will be able to pass away in April next year. My sister and the children will pass away first."

Dong heard that it would take a long time, and her brother-in-law would return to Beijing before her father-in-law would have a result.

Chang Lian washed his hands and said, "I'll write a letter to Dad and tell him about it."

Dong said, "My parents should be arriving in the capital soon!"

Chang Lian nodded, "It should be here soon."

His father left him in Pingzhou City, and he became the son of a wealthy family. With the identity of his brother-in-law, all eyes were on him since his father left. It was really hard for him to cope with it, and he almost got into trouble several times. Only then did he deeply understand that in the eyes of the old fox, he was not even a little fox. In the eyes of the old fox, he was just a chick that could fall into a trap at any time.

Now he misses the days under his father's wings very much. With his father's advice, he doesn't have to be so cautious all the time. He misses his father and mother.

Time flies, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren finally arrived in the capital.

When Zhao Bo arrived in Beijing, he left his address and left the convoy first. Zhulan lived in the second courtyard this time. The courtyard of Shang Jia's house was exquisite, and the furniture was also left behind during the negotiation, so she just had to move in with her luggage.

Zhulan had never considered living in or renovating the other two courtyards. When she sold them, she was also selling their locations.

There are many businessmen living in South City, and there are also officials living here, but their official positions are not high, and they usually move away when they are promoted. Even if the houses in South City are exquisite and spacious, officials are unwilling to stay. The class boundaries are very clear.

Six carriages stopped in front of the house. The gate of the house was still locked. Zhulan opened the gate. The yard had not been occupied for several months and a lot of weeds had grown.

Boss Zhou directed people to bring in the luggage.

Zhulan took the key and opened the doors of each room one by one. Fortunately, there was not much dust accumulated in the house.

Xue Han hugged her niece Yu Lu and said, "Mom, the courtyard in the capital is so exquisite."

Compared with the houses in Pingzhou, the houses in Beijing instantly looked like old houses in the countryside. Xue Han looked at the corridors and the rockery in the yard, and felt that Beijing was really great and the houses were all different.

Zhulan laughed. She was still a child after all. "That's because you haven't seen our other two courtyards. Not all courtyards are so exquisite."

Since Xue Han entered the capital, she has been looking outside through the gaps in the car curtains. The capital is so prosperous, and the restaurants are more magnificent than those in Pingzhou. However, she noticed the key point in her mother's words, "Mom, do we have two other courtyards?"

Zhulan smiled and said, "Yes, there are two more courtyards. Your third brother also knows about it, but he didn't dare to tell anyone. However, mother is going to sell them."

Xue Han hugged her niece tightly. Her family actually had so much money! A house in the capital!

Zhulan said to Xuehan, "Put Yulu down first, and take Jingchen with you to clean up your own room."

Xue Han put Yu Lu down and said, "Mom, I'm going out."

"kindness."

A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Shuren came back after finishing arranging the front yard. Zhou Shuren said, "It's getting dark now, let's eat a bite first."

Zhulan said, "Luckily I remembered that there was no firewood in the house, so I picked up some on the way here. Otherwise, we wouldn't even have enough firewood to burn."

Zhou Shuren said, "Buy more firewood tomorrow. Winter is coming soon, so buy some and keep some."

Zhulan said, "There are a lot of things to buy. Let's write a list after dinner."

Zhou Shuren sighed, "Beijing is not like Pingzhou where I have acquaintances to look after me. When I leave in the future, I will need someone to look after my house in Beijing."

Zhulan nodded, "Yes."

For dinner we had the food we brought back from Pingzhou. There was no meat, just a few wild vegetables.

There wasn't much firewood left, so taking a shower was out of the question. We packed our bags and went to bed early.

The next morning, living in the South City also had its advantages. There were many shops and it was very busy in the morning. Li didn't have to cook in the morning and could just go out with the money to buy buns.

Boss Zhou and Li went out together. Zhulan waited for a long time but no one showed up. She was a little worried. "Could these two people get lost?"

“When did they get lost?”

Zhulan frowned and estimated the time, "You should have come back a long time ago!"
