Chapter 820: Human Relationships

Rong Chuan glanced at them and said, "Let's go sit in the tea shop across the street."

Xue Han felt a little sweet in her heart, "Okay."

There were quite a few people in the snack shop, so they found a seat near the street and ordered two snacks and a pot of tea.

Rong Chuan's smile never faded. He pushed the snack in front of Xue Han and said, "This is what you like to eat."

Xue Han also pushed the snack in front of her over, "This is what you like."

Rong Chuan looked at Xue Han with a silly smile, and Xue Han felt embarrassed to be stared at, "Why are you looking at me?"

"nice."

Rongchuan realized belatedly what he had said, and Xuehan's cheeks were already red with embarrassment.

Xue Han stared at Rong Chuan, "Why didn't I realize before that you are so good at talking?"

Rongchuan, "There was no chance before."

Xue Han lowered her head and sipped her tea without looking at Rongchuan. Rongchuan had become much bolder since he returned to Ning's house.

Rongchuan ate his snacks and didn't say anything else. He really enjoyed the time with Xuehan. Even if they didn't talk, he could smell the sweetness of the air.

When Su Xuan and Chang Zhi arrived at the shop, they saw Xue Han and Rong Chuan smiling at each other foolishly.

Su Xuan smiled secretly, "The relationship between childhood sweethearts is just great."

Changzhi held his wife's hand and said, "We have a good relationship."

Xue Han and Rong Chuan heard the voice and looked away embarrassedly. Xue Han stood up and said, "Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law."

Chang Zhi saw that it was getting late, "Let's go to the restaurant to eat."

Rong Chuan agreed, "This meal is on me."

Changzhi snorted, "Of course it's your treat."

Whoever asks Rongchuan to marry his sister will make Rongchuan bleed.

At Zhou's house, Zhulan saw Mingteng and Ranxun being brought back by Changlian, and asked with a smile, "Where did you meet them?"

Chang Lian, "Mom, I met them in the teahouse. I was worried about them, so I brought them back myself."

Zhulan looked at Mingteng and the other two who obviously didn't want to go home. When the two children left, they said they wanted to eat outside. She smiled and said, "We've had lunch, you haven't eaten yet, right?"

Chang Lian: "No."

Zhulan said, "I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it. Changlian, go back and change your clothes. Mingteng will entertain Ran Xun."

Chang Lian was worried about his father, "Mom, where is Dad?"

"I took the medicine and lay down to rest!"

Chang Lian asked, "Is Dad feeling better?"

"Much better. I ate a lot at noon. Don't worry."

"That's good."

A restaurant in the capital, the place chosen by Su Xuan, "I used to come to this restaurant for a meal every time I went back to Kyoto. Although this restaurant is not big, it is very popular."

Changzhi looked at the full seats and was really angry, "Madam, where should we sit?"

Su Xuan called the shopkeeper over and asked, "Are there any private rooms left?"

The shopkeeper said, "Oh, you guys came at an unlucky time. A customer just entered the last private room."

Xue Han said, "Sister-in-law, since there are no seats available, shall we eat somewhere else?"

Su Xuan didn't want to come. This time the Zhou family went to Beijing, and her husband and eldest brother went back to their hometown, so it was not convenient for her to come out alone, so she had not come before. This time she finally came out.

Changzhi noticed that his wife was in a bad mood and said, "It's okay for us to wait a while."

Xue Han quickly replied, "We just had some snacks, so we're not hungry yet, sister-in-law, let's wait a while."

Su Xuan felt embarrassed. This restaurant was not big and there was no place to wait. She could only go back to the carriage. She thought again, after her husband came back, she could come out whenever she wanted in the future. She didn't care about this time. "Let's go to another restaurant and eat. We can come back when we have the chance in the future."

The shopkeeper who had just left came over quickly and said, "The customer just now said he knew a few of you and asked if you wanted to dine together."

Su Xuan raised her eyebrows, "What's the last name of the guest in the private room?"

The shopkeeper said, "The people in the box are County Master Shen and Prince Yao."

The restaurant has been open for so many years that he still knows some of the nobles in the capital.

Su Xuan raised her eyebrows and didn't want to go, but before she could say anything, Yao Zheyu had already come downstairs, "It's a rare opportunity to meet you, how about having a simple meal together?"

Everyone has come out to invite us, so we can only go upstairs.

Rong Chuan asked with a smile, "Is today also a day off for the Ministry of War?"

Yao Zheyu explained, "No, I exchanged my rest day with someone else. Please take a seat."

Su Xuan didn't see the child, "You two are the only ones who came out, where is the child?"

County Lord Shen replied, "In the Shenhou Mansion."

Su Xuan raised her eyebrows. She could feel that Shen Yi was unhappy, no matter how well she concealed it. It seemed that it was Master Yao's idea to invite them.

Yao Zheyu called the shopkeeper over, "We ordered some dishes. I don't know what you like. Please order the dishes you like. This meal will be on my table."

Rong Chuan said, "How can this be? I should be the one to pay for this meal. Thank you, Master Yao, for inviting us up."

Yao Zheyu looked at Prince Ning and Miss Zhou sitting together. They were a perfect match. "I've always wanted to treat Prince Ning to a meal, but I never had the chance. Today is a rare opportunity. You must give me the chance to treat."

Having said that, it would be embarrassing if I continued to refuse.

Rong Chuan said, "Then I will be thick-skinned today."

Rongchuan ordered the dishes without any hesitation, all of which were Xuehan's favorites, without Xuehan even saying a word.

Su Xuan looked at her husband with a smile, and Chang Zhi felt a chill on his back. He really didn't remember much of what his wife liked to eat. Feeling guilty, he glared at Rong Chuan and reflected on himself. He found that he seemed not to pay enough attention to his wife.

Su Xuan didn't want to make things difficult for her husband. She knew best what her husband was like in the past. After waiting for Rong Chuan to finish speaking, she ordered a few dishes that her husband liked and two dishes that she wanted to eat.

Chang Zhi felt guilty, and his wife remembered his preferences and said, "Next time we go out for dinner, I'll order the dishes."

Su Xuan was surprised and said, "Okay."

Shen Yile was already unhappy, and looking at the two couples opposite her, she became even more unhappy. This time her husband took a day off just to coax her.

Whenever Shen Yile thought about having two more concubines in the family, she felt furious. The two pairs in front of her were even more irritating, but she had to endure it.

She used to look down on Su Xuan, even though they were both county heads, Su Xuan was an orphan.

Now that the Zhou family has a relationship with the Ning family, she has to be polite to Su Xuan. Just like now, she has to endure the anger in her heart.

At Zhou's residence, Zhou Shuren had already woken up after a good rest. Zhulan poured some water and handed it to him, "Drink some water to moisten your mouth."

Zhou Shuren slept comfortably. "Did the Zhong family reply?"

Zhulan took the letter from the table and said, "I have returned a long time ago. This is the reply from Master Zhong."

Zhou Shuren took the letter. He had been thinking about the letter he wrote to Master Zhong. He smiled when he opened it. "Although it involved a favor, it's settled."

Zhu Lan also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, but it's hard to repay this favor."

Zhou Shuren put the letter back, "Yes, it's hard to repay such a big favor."

Zhulan was worried, "Will the Zhong family take this opportunity to propose marriage?"

Zhou Shuren smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master Zhong will not waste this favor on his in-laws. Besides, didn't you make a condition to Gao that day? The Zhong family won't do it."

Zhulan was relieved, "It's good that it won't happen."
