Chapter 682: Mature, stable and responsible

Zhou Shuren could not refuse Lord Ran twice, so he could only make it clear what kind of character he needed. To be honest, Zhou Shuren had never paid attention to Lord Ran's granddaughter.

Ran Zheng understood what he meant. He had not thought about it at first, but since the third son of the Zhou family became a scholar and stayed in Beijing, he realized that the emperor had a very good impression of Lord Zhou. The Zhou family had a new baby. He had heard his wife say many times that the Zhou family was lucky and blessed.

He then had another idea, so he called his own granddaughter over and interrogated her carefully. Well, she was pretty good, so he came to find Zhou Shuren today.

Ran Zheng thought a lot while drinking tea. When the tea was finished, he smiled and said, "What a coincidence! My little granddaughter is ten years old this year. Although she is young, she is good in everything. I took an exam yesterday. Although she is young, she is more stable than her brother."

Zhou Shuren smiled, "That's such a coincidence."

Their ages are really suitable, and Ran Zheng would not lie to him for the sake of marriage. This is a marriage, not an enmity!

Ran Zheng said cheerfully, "Your wife has seen it too. I'm not praising my own granddaughter."

After hearing this, Zhou Shuren could only go along with it. It looked like his wish to find someone with a lower family background would not come true. "Let's have dinner together next time we have a day off."

Ran Zheng knew that Zhou Shuren had agreed, "Okay, we'll talk about it when we're on vacation."

In the evening, during dinner, Zhou Shuren told Ran Zheng the purpose of his visit. "Ran Zheng was straightforward, and I verbally agreed."

Zhulan put down her chopsticks and said, "This is fast enough."

"Have you met Lord Ran's granddaughter?"

Zhu Lan replied, "I have seen them. The Ran family has two granddaughters. The elder granddaughter is the illegitimate daughter of Lord Ran's eldest son, and the younger granddaughter is the legitimate daughter of his second son. I have seen them, but we have never spoken, so I don't know much about them. However, Lord Ran must be right if he tells me."

They are all experienced old foxes, so there will be no problem with their vision.

Zhou Shuren, "Then I'll learn more about it during my break."

Zhulan smiled, "Plans are really no match for changes."

"Yes, but marrying someone is different from marrying someone into the family."

"Um."

The next day, Zhulan came to Li's house and said, "Let me tell you something first. Mingyun's marriage is basically settled."

Li asked excitedly, "Mom, whose daughter is this?"

Then she became a little worried again. She didn't know if she could get along well with her daughter-in-law. She was from a farming family, but her daughter-in-law was not.

Zhulan saw through Li's thoughts at a glance and patted Li's hand, "She is the legitimate granddaughter of Lord Ran's family. She is ten years old this year. Don't worry too much."

Li became even more worried. She was the granddaughter of a third-rank official, which meant her official rank was higher than that of her father-in-law. Moreover, Miss Ran was now the prince's concubine. Her family background was too good. She had thought that she could control her daughter-in-law, but her background destined her to be too far behind her. However, she could ignore her daughter-in-law and still wanted to get along well with her. She didn't want her daughter-in-law to look down on her.

Seeing that Li was looking depressed, Zhulan didn't know what to say to comfort her. She didn't understand Lord Ran's granddaughter either, and she could only understand her after meeting her in person. However, the Ran family had a good family tradition, and the problem that Li was worried about should not occur. Moreover, the smart woman knew how to get along with her mother-in-law.

Li returned to the courtyard. Yu Lu rarely saw her mother so listless. "Mom, didn't you go to see grandma? What happened to grandma? Why are you so absent-minded?"

Li sat on the chair helplessly, "Your eldest brother's marriage is basically settled. He is the legitimate granddaughter of Lord Ran. Mother is just a little worried."

Yu Lu loves her mother. Although she seems carefree, she is actually very sensitive. "Mom, my eldest brother is a filial son. You should trust him. Even if my eldest sister-in-law has a higher status in the future, as long as my eldest brother is around, she will still be filial to you, even if she has to pretend. And I am so good, I think my eldest sister-in-law will definitely like me in the future."

After hearing what her daughter said, Li felt more confident. "Yes, it's rare to find a mother-in-law as innocent as me."

Yu Lu smiled and said, "When big brother gets married, just tell big sister-in-law that you won't interfere in big brother's affairs, and big sister-in-law will definitely like you."

Mrs. Li perked up. "Your elder brother is finally engaged. I have been thinking about him all the time. It is your elder brother's good fortune to be engaged to Lord Ran's granddaughter. It will be good for your elder brother in the future."

Yu Lu thought to herself, in fact, her mother knew everything in her heart, "Mom, we love you."

Although my mother is uneducated, does not have a good background, and has some minor flaws, she is the most real.

It was the first time that Li heard her daughter say that she loved her. She was a little shy. She didn't know how to answer, so she stood up quickly and said, "Your grandmother said that your grandfather, Master Xiu Mu Ran and his family will come over this time. You should come and help me choose clothes and jewelry."

Yu Lu looked at her mother with a smile. Her mother was so cute.

On the second day, early in the morning, Zhulan went to the fourth room with the names Zhou Shuren had chosen. The two little guys grew up well. Although they did not gain weight, they were in good spirits and had already opened their eyes.

Zhulan sat aside and looked at the two children. "Now that they have grown up, the boy looks more like Changzhi, and the girl looks more like you."

Su Xuan's heart softened. These were two children who were connected to her by blood, her bloodline inheritance. "Mom, are these the names of the two children?"

Zhulan opened the paper with the names written on it. "The boy is Zhou Mingjia, and the girl is Zhou Yuwen."

Su Xuan silently repeated the names twice, "Good names, Mingjia, Yuwen, you now have names. This is what Grandpa hopes for you. You must grow up quickly."

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren originally wanted to name their granddaughter Yuru, which means everything goes well, but because her name looked like Wang Ru, they changed it.

Chang Zhi looked at the name dejectedly. It seemed like he, as a father, was naming his child.

Zhulan looked at Changzhi playing with the child. Life is different with and without a child. Changzhi grew a lot when Suxuan was pregnant. After the child was born, Changzhi became more stable and felt a sense of responsibility. No matter how much you say, it is better to experience it yourself. It makes sense to get married first and then start a career.

Seeing the two kids close their eyes in sleepiness, Zhulan stood up carefully and said, "I'll go back first. You should rest more."

Changzhi looked away from the child and said, "Mom, I'll take you out."

Zhulan hummed and reached the gate of the courtyard, "Don't see me off, you should go back too."

Changzhi did not go back, but went forward to support his mother, "Mom, I was ignorant before, and I made you and dad worry."

Zhulan tilted her head and looked at Changzhi. He had really matured. "It's different now that you have a child."

Chang Zhi's ears turned red, ashamed. He had been reflecting on himself for more than a month. He had been thinking about finding a chance to talk to his parents, but he never had the chance. This time, after the child was born, he finally found the chance. "Mom, I only thought about myself before."
