Chapter 513: Don’t Release It

Zhou Shuren took the lady's handkerchief. There were not many words on the light green handkerchief, but the main point was clearly expressed. The Xu family's letter for help did not have many words in total. Zhou Shuren put down the handkerchief and tapped the table, "There is no human rights."

Zhulan nodded sadly in her heart, "Yes."

More than just a lack of human rights, the Xu family also had some power. But in the end, they were worthless in the eyes of the powerful and could be destroyed at any moment. In fact, to put it bluntly, the Xu family suffered an unprovoked disaster. Originally, the Xu family had nothing to do with the Zhou family, but because of their acquaintance with the Zhou family, the Xu family was dragged into it. The Xu family has been doing business peacefully and they are very honest people.

After Zhou Shuren sighed, he became more determined to climb up. The higher he stood, the less likely he would be slaughtered. "Three days later, the clothing store. Sorry to bother you, ma'am."

Zhulan smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Zhou Shuren put away the handkerchief and said, "I'll go to the study first and come back for dinner later."

"Um."

Zhou Shuren returned to his comfort zone and took out the handkerchief. It would be better to put this thing away. After putting it away, he looked out the window quietly, pouted his lips, stood up and left the study. On the way back, Zhou Shuren looked at the servant sweeping the floor and couldn't help stroking his beard. He observed for a long time, but this time he didn't notice anything, which somewhat hit his observation ability.

He also wanted to get more of the emperor's people in the palace, but the emperor was too stingy.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't know what Zhou Shuren was thinking, otherwise he would have been furious. He thought there were so many omnipotent spies and each one of them was a treasure, but he wanted more. He was too greedy!

After dinner, Zhulan remembered that the fourth brother and his wife had returned home, and she had not met them yet. Oh, her mind was on the handkerchief. Looking at the couple, Changzhi was unhappy, while Suxuan was smiling. The look in Suxuan's eyes seemed to melt Changzhi.

Zhulan was very gossipy, but unfortunately she couldn't ask. She felt a little sad and could only wink at her daughter, hoping to know why tomorrow.

Su Xuan, "......."

Mother-in-law, your expression is too obvious, she is tired!

Su Xuan thought of Chang Zhi protecting her in the Wang family, and she was happy. When she thought of Wang Li's ugly face, she could eat an extra bowl of rice.

Li saw that her fourth brother's wife ate three and a half bowls of rice. She was really a big eater. This time, she was no longer the biggest eater in the family.

The next morning, Zhou Shuren checked the study and found out that someone had tampered with it, so he went to the yamen with peace of mind.

Zhou Shuren arrived at the government office and looked at Lord Wang in surprise. This man was the one who checked the place. "Why did you come so early today?"

Lord Wang looked shocked. "Lord Zhou."

Zhou Shuren was concentrating on the Xu family's affairs yesterday. He still admired the Xu family very much. The Xu family waited so long to ask for help. It was obvious that they had obtained something useful as a bargaining chip. He was thinking about the Xu family as a breakthrough point. He really didn't pay attention to Changzhi. Seeing Lord Wang's depressed look, he inexplicably wanted to laugh, "Ah, Lord Wang."

Lord Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, please pay attention to the Fourth Young Master's mouth in the future."

Yesterday the concubine's daughter was also stupid, well, she has always been stupid. The better the relationship between him and the lady, the more the lady can't tolerate the concubine's daughter. The lady is good and has never been treated unfairly since she was young. Compared with his miserable concubine's sister, the concubine's daughter is so much better. The marriage he carefully selected was ruined by himself. Even if he kept it secret, some news would still leak out. Well, this time he can only look for a lower-class marriage.

Yesterday, the county master came back home and showed that she was jealous of the county master's dowry. Later, she was jealous of the county master's good marriage. She didn't pay attention to her mouth. As a result, the county master didn't say anything, but Mr. Zhou Si exploded. He was convinced. Mr. Zhou Si's mouth was really poisonous. After a few words, he accused the concubine of being unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous!

Lord Wang felt a headache whenever he thought about it. He was such a smart man, but his son was like a smart man. The little girl couldn't be said to be too smart, but she was not bad either. Lord Wang thought that she must have taken after the concubine and was shallow-minded.

Zhou Shuren smiled happily, looking at Lord Wang's miserable appearance, "Please bear with me."

Otherwise, he really couldn't say anything to express his guilty conscience. He was also very sad. If his younger son really entered officialdom, he would have to work hard to prevent his son from being put in a sack!

Lord Wang covered his chest. He thought it would be better for Mr. Zhou Zhou not to come to visit him in the future. He was also stupid. Lord Zhou was a person who protected his son even though he sometimes disliked him. "I have something else to do."

Zhou Shuren waved his thin paws and said, "Come and talk more when you have time."

Lord Wang, "......."

No, he didn't want to see the Zhou family at all at the moment, especially Lord Zhou.

Zhulan also knew what had happened. She felt that, apart from Lord Wang who was afraid that the concubine's daughter would ruin his family, Mrs. Tao still welcomed Changzhi. Changzhi said something that Mrs. Tao could not say!

Xue Han sighed, "Mom, even though the four of us won't take part in the provincial examination next year, we will take part in it in the future. This means we can enter the officialdom."

There is no need to say the second half of the sentence, mother will understand. She is really afraid that one day fourth brother will be beaten up by someone.

Zhulan's expression became serious. "You are right to worry, so I asked your fourth brother to come over."

Xue Han exclaimed, "I'll go right away."

Xue Han arrived at the courtyard of the fourth room and stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or out. What did she see? The fourth brother was actually painting, and the painting was of the fourth sister-in-law sitting on a chair.

Su Xuan was stunned when she saw Xue Han. She had hidden her curiosity from Xue Han, so why did she come back again? She blushed. This was really not her request to be painted. Chang Zhi thought she looked good in red clothes, so he painted it.

Changzhi stopped writing when Su Xuan moved, turned around and saw his sister coming, "Why are you here again?"

There was a strong sense of disgust in his tone!

Xue Han looked up at the sky in silence, thinking that although Fourth Brother didn't welcome her very much at first, he had never been so disgusted with her. After getting married, Fourth Brother changed. He said with a stern face, "Mother asked me to call you."

You think I want to come?

Chang Zhi paused for a moment. His mother called him, so he had to go obediently. "I'll be there right away."

Originally, Xue Han wanted to go back to her own yard to accompany Wu Ning. Her teacher had taken leave these days, and she wanted to go back to study on her own. But now, because of her fourth brother's tone, she decided to go to the theater.

Zhulan saw Changze and Xuehan coming in. Before she could say anything, Changzhi spoke first, "Mom, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Zhulan pointed at Shenxing and said, "This is the best Kung Fu in the family. Be smart and start practicing with Shenxing."

Changzhi looked like he was struck by lightning. He could read books but not practice martial arts. His brain was like a rattle. "No, mother, you can't do this to your own son."

It's fatal. If there was no need to travel, what he would like to do most is lie down and read a book.

Zhulan sighed, "It is precisely because you are my own son that I changed the rules to let you learn. My son, I can no longer control your mouth. In order to avoid the possibility of the old sending the young away, I can only be cruel."

Chang Zhi pursed his lips. He knew it was because of what happened yesterday. Although Su Xuan was happy last night, she also told him that she shouldn't say that.

Zhulan covered her chest and asked, "Do you want to make your mother sad?"

Changzhi's mouth twitched, "Mom, please stop acting." He didn't even shed tears, "Son knows."
