Chapter 497: Resilience

Rongchuan turned and left, thinking to himself, the eldest grandson of the Dong family is not as good as Mingteng. Although Mingteng is naughty, Mingteng has a very high emotional intelligence!

Dong Liao didn't dare to chase after him and yell. Zhang Rongchuan was not only the child's foster husband, but also a half-son raised by the Zhou family. He felt a little scared and was afraid that Zhang Rongchuan would complain.

Zhulan closed her eyes, knowing that the two people not far away had left. She knew that Dong Lin was embarrassed, so it was better for her not to open her eyes. She thought in her heart that Dong Lin and his wife were good, but they were not good at educating their children and grandchildren.

Dong Lin's face flushed. She was over fifty years old and had completely lost face. She was also angry. She knew the character of the Zhou family. The more she knew, the more she knew that the Zhou family did not treat Zhang Rongchuan as a child foster husband but as a son, and his food, clothing and other necessities were the same as Chang Lian's.

Mrs. Dong Lin felt a little dizzy and angry. She had originally thought of leaving after a few days, but now she felt that it would be better to leave early. Otherwise, not only would her daughter be embarrassed, but the relationship between the two families would also be damaged.

Dong Lin stood up and said, "We have spoiled Dong Liao. I will make amends for him."

Zhulan quickly opened her eyes and stood up, supporting Dong Lin, "Your mother-in-law shouldn't be blamed. It's normal for children to fight with each other. Don't take it to heart."

Zhulan was actually angry in her heart. Rongchuan was ridiculed in the academy. Even if Rongchuan didn't say anything, he still asked Mingyun to not let him know. She knew all this. She was very happy about Rongchuan's magnanimity, but also felt sorry for the child. Fortunately, not many people dared to ridicule Rongchuan.

Her silence doesn't mean she doesn't care. All she can do is quietly change Rongchuan's writing brush, inkstone, etc. She even chooses the best accessories for Rongchuan. She doesn't say it, but uses practical actions to tell everyone that this is also the son of the Zhou family.

Her approach was very effective. Except for some people who were particularly arrogant, no one else dared to make sarcastic remarks anymore.

What she heard with her own ears today was really harsh, but she couldn't preach. Although she couldn't preach, she could retreat and advance. Dong Lin would educate her, and she wouldn't have to make things difficult for Dong.

How could Dong Lin not take it to heart? She had heard many girls talk about Yang's prowess. Yang was a woman from a peasant family, and no one would bother her in Jinzhou, which was full of aristocratic families. Yang was too cunning, and she could not guess what Yang was thinking.

Seeing Yang smiling, Dong Lin felt particularly anxious, "Mother-in-law, I'm going home first."

"Okay, mother-in-law, please don't say anything about the child. The child is still young."

Dong Lin paused as she was walking. Rong Chuan could still get by, but Dong Liao was already a father. He broke out in a cold sweat on his back and walked away quickly.

Zhulan sat down again and said to Mrs. Song, "Why didn't Rongchuan go to the academy today?"

Mrs. Song knew the mansion well. She bowed her head and said, "The young master asked for leave and went to the library to get a copy of calligraphy."

Zhulan smiled and said, "I remember there is a new copybook in the master's study. Forget it, I'll just go get it myself."

Mrs. Song smiled and said, "Yes."

The mistress will definitely send it over with great fanfare to put pressure on me.

Zhulan seldom entered Zhou Shuren's study, but she was familiar with Zhou Shuren's bookshelf and quickly found the newly acquired copybook of calligraphy, which Zhou Shuren had obtained from Lord Wang!

Changzhi had been thinking about this calligraphy book for a long time, but it was a pity that Zhou Shuren treasured it very much.

Zhulan took the calligraphy and left the study. Mrs. Song lowered her head and sighed in her heart, thinking that the mistress just took it casually.

In the third room, Dong Lin returned with a pale face. She was making small clothes for the unborn child. When she saw that her mother looked unhappy, she quickly put down the clothes and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

It was fine when I went out just now.

Dong Lin sat down on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief. She was not going to tell the lady, lest she worry. She already regretted it. If she hadn't come, there wouldn't be so much trouble. This time, the lady was only worried about her. "It's okay, maybe her body hasn't recovered yet. Are you making clothes?"

Mrs. Dong didn't believe what her mother said. She thought to herself that her mother-in-law shouldn't make things difficult for her mother. It could only be Dong Liao. She got angry when she thought of Dong Liao. When Dong Liao didn't come home yesterday, her husband didn't say anything. She knew that he was unhappy. Fortunately, her husband took into consideration her pregnancy and didn't mention Dong Liao's request. "Well, I think I should make more while I'm still light."

Dong Lin touched the material, which was the best material, but she was still surprised. After just two days of contact, she could see that the Zhou family had a strong financial background in all aspects. It had only been a few years, but Yang really had hands full of silver. When she thought of this, her face turned pale again.

Zhulan had already arrived at Rongchuan's yard. Rongchuan was writing in the yard. When Zhulan walked in, the child didn't notice her as he was completely focused. Zhulan signaled Xia Mo to keep quiet and walked over carefully to stand aside and watch.

People outside say that Mr. Zhang from the Zhou family has good handwriting, but they don't know how much hard work Rongchuan has put in. Every time Zhou Shuren talks about Rongchuan, he is fond of him. This child's tenacity makes people feel distressed and admired.
