Chapter 593: More and more like my biological father

Zhulan smiled. The only thing that could make Changzhi so happy was that Suxuan was pregnant. Changzhi wanted a child differently from before. This time he really wanted a child. "Has the doctor checked? How many months have you been pregnant?"

Changzhi was still feeling uneasy. He came to announce the good news only after the diagnosis. "It's been almost two months."

Su Xuan was already crying. Yes, he had to go back to accompany his wife. "Mom, I'm going back first. Su Xuan is a little emotional."

Zhulan knew that Su Xuan was under a lot of pressure after getting married for almost a year. Because of her status, she was a celebrity in Jinzhou City, and there were a lot of topics about her. "Go back quickly. Su Xuan is not having an easy time either."

In recent months, Su Xuan has not gone out to attend any invitations, for fear of being asked whether she is pregnant or not.

Chang Zhi responded and ran away quickly. He was going to be a father, and the feeling this time was different from the last time. Last time he was somewhat calculating, but now he was truly looking forward to having a child.

The news of Su Xuan's pregnancy spread throughout Jinzhou within a day through the doctor. This time, those who were jealous of Su Xuan kept their mouths shut. In the past, they could still complain that Su Xuan was so lucky that she didn't want to have a child, but now that she had given birth to a concubine, they didn't dare to say anything more.

In the evening, Zhou Shuren was also happy, "When the baby is born, Changzhi will also be mature."

Zhulan agreed, "Not raising a child is not only a debt of gratitude to parents, but Changzhi has also grown up a lot now."

Zhou Shuren was very disgusted, "If he doesn't grow up after I teach him like this, I might as well find a crooked tree and hang him to death."

Zhulan, "......."

Zhou Shuren used to be more and more fond of his son, but after hearing these words, he is acting more and more like a real father.

Zhou Shuren felt uncomfortable being stared at by Zhulan, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhu Lan smiled and said, "Have you noticed that you have become more and more patient with your sons? Even if you have some calculations, you still need to be sincere. You have unknowingly invested your feelings in them."

Zhou Shuren felt a little uncomfortable, as if it was true. "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's eat."

Zhulan laughed, "Okay, let's eat."

In the following two days, Zhulan would think about Chang Lian and his wife or go to see Su Xuan every day. Zhulan was of no use to Su Xuan, a pregnant woman. Su Xuan had many maids around her, and now that she was pregnant, there were two more maids.

Tao's invitation arrived, and Zhulan had been staying at home for a long time, so she accepted Tao's invitation to worship Buddha.

On the day of the Buddha worship, Zhulan brought Li with her. Li was quite excited, "Mom, it's so lively outside the city."

Zhulan looked at Li who was leaning against the car window and didn't let go. This was because she had been trapped in the city for too long. Looking out the window, it was indeed very lively outside the city.

Li pointed and said, "Mother, Lord Wang's carriage is in front."

Zhulan motioned for Li to sit back, and the carriage hurried past. The Wang family's coachman saw the carriage and hurried to catch up with the Zhou family's carriage.

Zhulan leaned against the car window. The scenery outside the city was so beautiful. There were also many more children outside the city than last year. Zhulan curled her lips. After Zhou Shuren's process was implemented, the public security in the whole Jinzhou improved a lot, and the human traffickers became well-behaved and honest.

Zhulan heard from Zhou Shuren that in the past, there were cases of missing children in Jinzhou every month every year, but now there are much fewer cases, and this is all thanks to Zhou Shuren.

The carriage reached the foot of the mountain. Zhulan got off and took a deep breath. The air quality in ancient times was really good.

Tao also got out of the car and said, "I invited you ten times before, but you never came. I was surprised that you agreed to come today."

Zhulan was also speechless, "I rejected you every time, why do you keep sending me invitations?"

Tao smiled and said, "Because it's interesting. I also wanted to know when you would agree. Look, I've waited for it today."

"You're really persistent."

"Living in the back house, besides attending banquets, I have the most time left, so naturally I have to find some fun for myself."

Zhulan looked at Tao and smiled. Everyone has their own way of life, and this is Tao's. "Let's go."

As they walked, Tao said, "There was a big commotion in the capital yesterday. The news of a wedding was all over the place."

Zhulan also knew that the greatest fun was that the Anping Marquis's Mansion and the Yao Marquis's Mansion married off their daughters at the same time, but the dowries were in stark contrast. "I heard about it."

Tao was excited. "It is said that the dowry of Yao Houfu has not even reached 3,000 taels. Yao Houye is really willing to sacrifice his reputation."

She knew how wealthy the Yaohou Mansion was when she was in the capital. It was truly magnificent.

Zhulan thought of Zhou Shuren's words. The more shameless Yao Wenqi was, the more problematic he was. This marriage of a daughter was like giving away a concubine's daughter. The more he offended the Fifth Prince, the more abnormal it was. Yesterday, the Fifth Prince became the laughing stock of the capital. The prestige that the Fifth Prince had accumulated with great difficulty through his job was gone in an instant.

Tao stopped and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhu Lan came back to her senses, "I'm not thinking about anything. I just wondered if Prince Yao would bring County Master Shen to Jinzhou after I return home in three days."

Tao said dimly, "Who knows? It depends on Master Yao's ability."

Zhulan then said that she didn't care whether Prince Yao was capable or not, as the Zhou family had already given the gifts. The higher Zhulan climbed, the less she wanted to speak, because she was tired.

When they reached the top of the mountain, Zhulan stood on the steps and looked down. At the foot of the mountain was a market surrounding the temple, which was really lively.

This time, Zhulan had the rare opportunity to worship Buddha with Tao. After the wedding, Zhulan came out to rest and thought to herself that she had really become an old lady from ancient times. She was very patient and sincere when worshipping Buddha. She now touched things that she would not touch before. Her mentality had become old.

Li came back after praying for a lucky charm, "Mother, you are out."

Zhulan took Li's amulet and asked, "Is this for Minghui?"

Li said with a tone of disdain, "Minghui is not well behaved now. He likes to climb the rockery and won't listen to me. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of him and he'll fall. I'm asking for a lucky charm to give me peace of mind."

Zhulan touched the amulet, wondering if it worked or not, or if it was just a mental exercise. She only knew that the amulets in Jinzhou temples were hard to come by, so she said, "Put it away carefully."

Li carefully put it away and said, "Mom, I also asked for one for my sister-in-law."

Zhulan smiled. Li followed Suxuan and filled her purse. Suxuan had many capable people under her. It had only been half a year, but Li had a lot of money in his hands. "You are thoughtful."

This reward is what Su Xuan needs most.

Li smiled innocently, "My sister-in-law has helped us a lot. She has everything she needs. There is not much I can do. I just hope that she and the child can be safe and sound."

Zhulan nodded and saw that Tao had returned. Today, Tao had invited a master to tell fortunes for her youngest son. Zhulan did not ask about the result, but knew it was good just by seeing Tao's happy face.

After going down the mountain and returning to the city, the carriage swayed slowly to the city gate. There was a long queue at the entrance to Jinzhou City. We waited for a while and registered before entering the city. Zhulan didn't think it was troublesome. Li looked at it for a while and was still curious, so she kept looking out of the carriage.

Li said, "Mom, look outside the car."

There is another chapter in an hour.
