Chapter 629: Is It Related?
In the capital, at Zhou's house, Chang Lian escorted Dong down from the carriage. Dong looked at the gate of Zhou's house and thought, "It is indeed a gifted house. It is so magnificent."
Chang Lian waited for Rong Chuan to get off the carriage and said, "Let's go inside and talk."
Dong was excited. This was the West City District. "Okay."
The group entered the house, which had already been arranged. Dong looked at the yard and asked, "Will we live in this yard in the future?" This yard is bigger than the one in Jinzhou Prefecture.
Chang Lian exclaimed, "This is the yard that mother arranged for us. We will live here in the future. Do you like it? If you think it's inappropriate, you can change it."
Mrs. Dong was very satisfied with the courtyard. This was the capital city. In the capital city, the Zhou family still had such a big house. They were also given a nice courtyard. It was already a great blessing. "It's good enough now."
Chang Lian smiled and said, "You take a rest first. I'll go take a walk in the yard."
In the Jinzhou government office, Zhou Shuren had a rare chance to relax. It was the beginning of the new year and there was not much to do. According to the time, Chang Lian and Rong Chuan should be in the capital.
Lord Wang came in holding a hand warmer, "Lord, can you chat for a while?"
Zhou Shuren, "Please sit down."
Lord Wang thought that he was a cheapskate and it was rare for him to have a few days of leisure. He was still a little uncomfortable. "I heard that Chang Lian went to the capital today."
Zhou Shuren thought to himself, these people are staring at the Zhou Mansion without any relaxation, "Your news spreads quickly."
Lord Wang spread his hands and said, "I heard it from others, but I am not the one keeping an eye on the Zhou Mansion."
"I see. By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. Your son has entered Beijing."
Wang Ju was also very happy, and she thought to herself, "Sooner or later, the child will have to grow up and explore the world on his own."
Zhou Shuren, "......."
Can he curse at someone? Did your family go to Beijing to break into someone? They obviously went back to exercise with Mr. Wang. Zhou Shuren felt jealous when he thought about it. This is the advantage of having a family. With someone to protect you, your future will be smooth.
Lord Wang soon came over and said, "He Shu will be here tomorrow."
Speaking of this, Lord Wang is really happy. This marriage has gone through many twists and turns, but fortunately it is finally going to take place.
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard and said, "This kid arrived quite early."
Wang Ju stared, "Come to think of it, Mingyun is also at the age to get married, does your Excellency have any candidates?"
Zhou Shuren really had no choice, but he had a standard. Mingyun's wife would not be of high birth, and the eldest son's family was of commoner status. So it was really difficult to choose a marriage for Mingyun. "No rush."
After breakfast the next day, Wu Yong and Wu Ting returned to their own house. An hour or two later, Wu Ting brought two boxes. One box was a gift for the Zhou family, containing medicinal herbs and furs.
Zhulan accepted it with peace of mind, as it was the Wu family's gratitude.
The other box was Wu Ning's dowry, which was full of furs and was added to the dowry list. Zhulan added some more fabrics, adding two more loads of dowry, so Wu Ning's dowry now weighed thirty-two loads.
Xue Han was in a very low mood, "Sister Wu Ning is getting married soon."
She really couldn't bear to leave. She and her sister Wu Ning had never been separated in the past few years. Now her sister got married and the yard was empty.
Zhulan looked at the girl and asked, "Do you want to get married?"
Xue Han's face flushed red, "Mom, I don't want to get married. I want to wait for two more years."
Zhulan was reluctant to marry the young lady, and stroking her hair, she hoped that the girl's marriage would not encounter any setbacks, and that everything would go smoothly between the young lady and Rongchuan.
In the capital, Chang Lian was discussing an article with Rong Chuan when the doorman reported that Shen Ju was visiting.
Chang Lian narrowed his eyes and said, "He is well-informed."
Rongchuan put down the book in his hand, "But do you want to meet him?"
Chang Lian shook his head, "I can't see him. I always feel that if I see him, I will be in trouble all the time."
Rong Chuan knocked on the table with his hand, "Third brother, did you notice that uncle was very cautious about our trip to Beijing this time? He even came with us, telling us to be careful with our words and actions. Even Song, who was beside mother, came with us."
Who these three people are is no secret in the Zhou Mansion.
Chang Lian said, "I have also discovered this, so we must be more cautious. I always feel that I met this Shen Ju person by chance. Even if there is no evidence, it is better to have less trouble than more. We should not leave the house these days."
Rongchuan didn't plan to go out either, "Yeah."
Chang Lian said to Jian Yan, "Go back and tell him that I have a slight cold and am not fit to be a guest. Then go and ask a doctor to come."
Jinyan heaved a sigh of relief. He also felt that it was not simple. These spies had their own intuition. Fortunately, the Third Young Master was smart and did not cause trouble. "Yes."
Because of Shen Juren's interruption, Chang Lian and Rong Chuan no longer had the mood to discuss the article, and they walked out of the study and returned to their own courtyard.
To reach Rongchuan's yard, one has to pass through the garden. While strolling in the garden, Rongchuan was thinking about this in his heart. He had never traced his own life experience, but he had never forgotten it. The capital city, he had arrived in the capital city.
Outside Zhou's house, Shen Yang's face darkened after hearing the reply. He had come to the house but didn't see him. He stared at the gate, recalling what he had seen along the way, and his heart was excited. This was the West City District, an area full of nobles. If he could live here, he might meet a noble!
It’s a pity that Mr. Zhou San didn’t give him this ladder. After all, he is a scholar and he still has some shamelessness.
After turning around and getting on the carriage, I could only go to the inn.
Not far away, Zhang Jinghong's carriage stopped. His heart was pounding. This person had returned. He had just thought he had seen him wrong. He stopped the carriage and took a closer look. Only then did he know that he had seen him right. But why did he come to Zhou's house? What was the relationship between this person and Lord Zhou? Lord Zhou knew about this, but did the emperor know about this?
Zhang Jinghong's mind was in a mess and his head was buzzing. Should he be glad that the Fifth Prince's residence was not far from Lord Zhou's residence?
Zhang Jinghong pinched his palm vigorously, "Go check, check the relationship between the person just now and the Zhou family, and remember to investigate carefully."
"yes."
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. At Zhou Mansion in Jinzhou, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren got up early. Although they were not Wu Ning's parents, they were the elders when Wu Ning got married, and they also supported her.
Zhulan went to see Wu Ning, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress that made people unable to take their eyes off her. In fact, the Zhou family had always married people into the family, but this was her first marriage. The only thing they were not satisfied with was Wu Ning's makeup.
Wu Ning is a gentle woman, and heavy makeup is not suitable for her. Zhu Lan took the rouge and said, "I'll do it."
Wu Ning smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Auntie."
Zhulan is good at makeup, and she has taught Xuehan and Wu Ning. Zhulan quickly re-did Wu Ning's makeup. "How about it?"
Wu Ning looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Her brows were as gentle as water, and she looked much better than before. "Pretty."
Zhulan took the headgear and put it on Wu Ning, saying as she put it on: "Auntie has taught you everything that should be taught to you. Now that you are getting married, I will say one more thing: take good care of yourself and don't get wronged. If you are wronged, be sure to tell me. Although you are not your daughter-in-law, I have raised you as one."
There is another chapter in an hour.
