Chapter 833 I Don't Understand

At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren waited until Qiu Yan came back and stood up, "Master Qiu, are the Shangshu Master back together?"

Qiu Yan's eyes were a little dazed, especially the account book on Zhou Shuren's desk. He looked at Zhou Shuren with a little sympathy, "No, the master is still in the palace."

Zhou Shuren sat down in a daze, "So, how is Mr. Qiu these days?"

Qiu Yan touched his head. He had not been feeling well these past few days, especially in the last few days. He had severe hair loss when combing his hair this morning. "Master Zhou, welcome back."

Zhou Shuren, "......."

He really wanted to ignore Qiu Yan's actions. He looked at the top of Qiu Yan's head and then looked away with heartache.

At Zhou's Mansion, Zhulan met Gu Liufeng's aunt, Jin. She really didn't expect that Jin would come to visit her.

Jin was sitting on the chair, looking very reserved. This was her first time visiting the home of a third-rank official. She had always met people of the same rank, the highest being fourth-rank. She smiled and said, "I have personally visited you a long time ago, but I never had the right opportunity. I am now shamelessly visiting you. I hope you will forgive me."

Zhulan thought of the honest Mr. Hu, and she said with a smile, "Mr. Hu, there is no need to be so polite. Have some tea."

Jin came here with trepidation, fearing that Lord Zhou's wife would bear a grudge. If the young master of the Zhou family had not invited Liu Feng yesterday, she would not have dared to come. "Thank you, Lord Shuren Kuanhong, for not holding a grudge against me."

Zhulan looked at Jin with interest. Although she was a little bit rude, she was not stupid. Thinking of Lord Hu's temper, although he was soft, he was not muddle-headed. Jin also had her own way of survival. Zhulan felt better about Jin. However, she still did not like how Jin taught her daughter. "If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered it. It's over."

Jin looked into Yang Shuren's eyes carefully, and saw no perfunctory expression. She felt relieved, "I came here in person today to thank Master Zhou Mingyun for taking care of Liu Feng."

Zhu Lan's heart moved, "Come to think of it, I only had a quick glimpse of Mr. Gu's mother last time, and I thought you would bring her along to express your gratitude."

Jin was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and replied cautiously, "Liu Feng's mother is a bit gentler. How about I bring her to meet you next time?"

Ever since the old man mentioned that Lord Zhou had a good impression of Gu Liufeng, she has softened her attitude towards this sister, but she still looks down on her personality. When she came to visit today, she actually went to ask about it, and as expected, she didn't dare to come along.

The thought that Zhulan had just mentioned disappeared after hearing this. She felt that Jin was a person who knew how to measure things. As long as such a person was suppressed by status, he would not dare to act rashly. So she asked Gu Liufeng's mother more, but being too soft would not do the trick. Who knows if she would rely too much on her son? Forget it, forget it.

Zhulan smiled and said, "If there is a chance."

Jin understood and did not bring her to Zhou's house specially, because Yang Shuren had no interest in this girl.

In the second room, Zhao took the letter from the maid, and Yu Shuang raised her head, "Mother, who sent you the letter?"

Zhao was familiar with the words on the envelope. "A letter from your uncle."

She quickly opened the letter, as she was afraid that something might have happened to Lizhou's brother. After reading the letter, Zhao was stunned.

Yu Shuang didn't hear anything for a long time. She looked up and saw her mother's eyes were red. "Mom, what happened to my uncle?"

Zhao wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, "No, your uncle is fine, mother is happy, your uncle sent us some leather and special products, which have been sent along with the Yang family."

Yu Shuang took the letter from her mother's hand and read it carefully. Indeed, a lot of things were sent over. At the end of the letter was a list.

Yu Shuang said, "My little uncle has grown up."

Mrs. Zhao was moved. When her mother was alive, she seldom gave her gifts. Now that her mother passed away, her younger brother remembered to give gifts at such a young age. She was very relieved. When her mother was alive, it was like she had no maternal family, but now she has a maternal family again.

Zhulan sent Jin away, and Zhao came over, "Mom, my younger brother asked my uncle to send a New Year gift over."

Zhulan thought, sending this child to live in the academy was really too much. Look, he understands the ways of the world. "It's not easy for you to be alone in Lizhou. When the New Year gifts from Lizhou arrive, we should bring more back. Yes, there are a lot of pens and ink in the warehouse, all of which are top quality. I'll ask the maid to pack some out and pack them all when we return the gifts."

Zhao was happy in her heart. With her mother-in-law around, her father-in-law would pay more attention to her younger brother. Now that her mother was gone, she heard her husband say a lot of good things about her younger brother. She also hoped that her younger brother would be better. "Thank you, mother."

Zhulan, "Thanks are due to relatives."

After Zhao left, Zhulan asked Mrs. Song to take the maids to the storehouse to clean up. There were really a lot of things in the storehouse. Since the gifts during festivals could not be resold, a lot of things piled up every year.

A few days ago, Rongchuan sent some more, saying that the warehouse of Ninghou Mansion was too crowded, and since there were many students in the Zhou family, he moved two boxes over.

In the Mansion of Marquis Yao, Yao Yao was lying on the bed, suffering from severe pain in her lower abdomen. She had just taken a pregnancy-preserving medicine and lay there motionless.

Shi Qing sat on the bed, "Don't you want to look at me?"

Yao Yao cried silently. She didn't know if it was because of her pregnancy or because she felt wronged, but she just didn't want to talk to Shi Qing.

Shi Qing sighed and reached out to hold his wife's somewhat cold hand. He was also shocked to hear that there was a tendency of miscarriage. Why did he fight so hard? It was to keep the child.

Shi Qing heard footsteps and saw County Lord Shen, "County Lord."

County Lord Shen stood there awkwardly watching Yao Yao cry. She came at the wrong time. "I'm glad Yao Yao is okay. I just came to see her."

Yao Yao stood up and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law, for what I just said."

County Lord Shen patted Yao Yao's hand and said, "You have worked hard these days. Leave the rest to me. You should have a good rest. The child is more important."

Yao Yao knew in her heart that her mother had died, and her sister-in-law was the happiest person. She felt bad, but she couldn't show it, because her sister-in-law had the support of the Shen Marquis Mansion. "Well, my sister-in-law worried too much."

County Lady Shen doesn't feel like worrying. Her father-in-law is getting old and it's impossible for him to remarry. In the future, she will have the final say in the Marquis's Mansion. No matter how much she worries, she doesn't feel tired.

At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren finally met Lord Xiao. Xiao Qing covered his chest and said, "It's almost winter. I haven't been feeling well these days, and now I have a cough."

Zhou Shuren watched Lord Xiao perform. Don't think he will believe it just because he drinks the tea that moistens the lungs. "Sir, some accounts should be calculated by you. I dare not cross the line."

As he said this, he placed the booklet in his hand on the table.

Xiao Qing stared. Zhou Shuren actually changed back. "You are so stubborn. If I don't tell you, no one will know."

Zhou Shuren greeted him and said, "I have just arrived in Beijing and I dare not make any mistakes. There is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. I am the pillar of my family and I dare not make any mistakes."

Xiao Qing glared, "Pah, Zhou Shuren is not so timid, this guy just doesn't want to help him do the job." He gritted his teeth and said, "The emperor has mentioned you to me several times and praised you."

Zhou Shuren pretended not to understand the hint, didn't understand, didn't understand, "I am grateful to the emperor for his recognition. I will take my leave first."

Xiao Qing, "......."

I came back late, and I posted late. There are still two chapters to go, around ten o'clock. Yes, the last two chapters were a thousand words short, I will make up for it.
