Chapter 503: Guess

Yao Zheyu stood up. He didn't expect Lord Zhou to see him out. Looking at Lord Zhou who left after speaking, Yao Zheyu was silent. Lord Zhou was really a member of the Gu family. His weaknesses were obvious, but what could he do even if he knew them all? He didn't dare to reach out again without certainty.

Xue Han came back from Wang's house and looked at the carriage sign at the door. This was Master Yao's carriage. Xue Han entered the yard and got off the carriage. After walking a few steps, she saw Butler Ding and Master Yao.

Xue Han thought what a coincidence, as an engaged girl, she lowered her head and said, "Prince."

Yao Zheyu paused, "Ms. Zhou."

Xue Han greeted them, stood up and took a few steps back, then quickly went to the backyard with Liuli and Liujin.

Yao Zheyu paused, retracted his gaze, and left Zhou's house. After getting on the carriage, Yao Zheyu closed his eyes, then opened them again and looked at his clothes, all in black. Ha, Miss Zhou was in green. What a lucky person. He closed his eyes again, and couldn't help but think of Miss Zhou with a smile on her lips. He suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils constricted. It was just a few glances, but he seemed to be paying too much attention.

At the Zhou residence, Xue Han arrived at the main courtyard, "Dad and Mom, I'm back."

Zhulan saw Liuli holding a gift box and said speechlessly, "What did the county lord give you?"

Xue Han didn't know how she caught the eye of the future fourth sister-in-law. She often asked her to go to the Wang Mansion to accompany her and gave her some jewelry from time to time. If she refused, the future fourth sister-in-law would find various reasons to make her do what she wanted.

Xue Han opened the box and said helplessly, "Mom, this is a set of pearl head ornaments that the county lord wore when he was fourteen years old."

Zhulan stared at the pearls on her head. They were quite large. "They are too expensive."

Xue Han blushed. Her fourth sister-in-law said it was for her dowry. "I said it was too expensive, but the county lord said it was not expensive. The whole set of head ornaments, the largest ones were worth a lot of silver. Although the other small pearls were bought, they were not worth much silver."

Zhou Shuren, who was sitting nearby, interrupted, "A few of the larger pearls, caught by the county owner's fishing boat?"

Xue Han nodded, "Yes, the county lord said that sometimes we can find some, although they are very few, but if we accumulate them over the years, we will have a few, but private transactions are not allowed."

Zhou Shuren stopped talking and continued to tease his little son who was eagerly looking outside.

Zhulan was pleased with the headgear. After careful calculation, she realized that the county lord was really generous. He had given Xuehan a lot of things in the recent period, from daily necessities to jewelry. Zhulan didn't care about the county lord's family background, but she couldn't help but calculate how much money the county lord had. "Your fourth brother is really blessed."

Xue Han couldn't help but giggle. Today, she practiced calligraphy with her future fourth sister-in-law for a while. Well, they didn't write together, but the future fourth sister-in-law wrote and she sat beside and watched. Don't mention how resentful the county lord was. The most annoying thing was that after the fourth brother knew that she often went to the Wang Mansion, he asked her to tell the future fourth sister-in-law to write ten big characters every day, and bring them to the fourth brother to see after they were done.

She remembered that after she finished speaking, the county lord's face turned green.

Xue Han stood up and stopped disturbing her parents. "Dad, Mom, I still need to deliver the county lord's name to my fourth brother. I'll be home now."

Zhulan couldn't help laughing out loud. After the lady left, she said to Zhou Shuren, "Fortunately, the county lord is firm in his love for Changzhi. Otherwise, Changzhi would have ruined his marriage sooner or later."

Zhou Shuren was speechless and wanted to roll his eyes. He didn't know what to say. "You should be thankful that this kid didn't send the Buddhist scriptures over so that the county lord could copy more Jingxin."

Zhulan, "........"

This boy is so bold, she has to control him. She can't let Chang Zhi ruin her daughter-in-law who she finally finds.

Zhu Lan said quietly, "If I had known, I would have gotten married earlier."

She no longer had to worry about Changzhi's shocking actions. As for after the marriage, Changzhi and the county lord could do whatever they wanted. After all, they were married and would not get divorced easily.

In Changzhi's yard, Changzhi was practicing calligraphy with excited eyes. Xuehan came in and saw the silly fourth brother. Looking at the many large characters on the table, Xuehan asked Qimo, "How long have you been writing?"

Qi Mo really admired his son, "He never stopped after breakfast."

Xue Han was speechless. Fortunately, her family was wealthy, otherwise ordinary families would not be able to afford the way Fourth Brother used paper. Looking at the pile of written papers, she was not afraid of interrupting Fourth Brother. "Fourth Brother, stop writing."

Changzhi didn't hear and continued writing. Xuehan calmly walked over and took the paper, "Stop writing."

Changzhi was not angry either. He looked up and asked in confusion, "I just started writing for a while. Why are you back?"

"It's not even a moment yet. Look at the hourglass and see what time it is."

Changzhi took a look and exclaimed, "I've been writing for so long."

As he said this, he put down the pen in his hand and handed it to Qi Mo. Qi Mo washed the brush and he washed his hands.

Changzhi saw the box in his little sister's hand and asked, "Su Xuan's handwriting?"

Xue Han smiled and said, "Yes."

She likes Fourth Brother like this and never says anything bad about the County Lord. What Fourth Brother values ​​is Sister Su Xuan as a person, not just Sister Su Xuan's one-sided kindness.

Changzhi looked at the words, his brows knitted into knots, and he said venomously, "You really haven't made any progress at all. The words are as soft and sloppy as a worm crawling. Look at what you wrote, it's too ugly."

Xue Han, "......."

She felt that her fourth brother and his wife would definitely have a fight in the future. Given her mother's love for his wife, and looking at her fourth brother's small stature, Xue Han patted his shoulder with a sigh.

Chang Zhi was angry and felt that Su Xuan was fooling him. "What's wrong?"

Xue Han, "I just want Fourth Brother to control his mouth after he gets married and not act impulsively."

Zhou Changzhi, "Huh?"

Qi Mo lowered his head, his shoulders trembling, he wanted to laugh.

In the main courtyard, Zhou Shuren coaxed his son to sleep after playing for a while, and said to Zhulan who was sewing nearby, "I have some guesses about the Xu family."

Zhulan put down the food she made for Zhou Shuren and asked, "How did you guess that?"
