Chapter 934 Ran Zheng
Wu Ming, "Godfather, Changzhong is very smart. He has been testing my bottom line. I have to take action."
Children have very accurate intuition and are good at testing. He has been taking care of his younger brother since he was young, so he knows it well.
Zhou Shuren wiped his nose and said, "Well, Changzhong will be handed over to you from now on."
Wu Ming did not tell them that he had prepared a ruler. After thinking about it, he decided to tell his godmother secretly that his godmother had never said a word when he taught Changzhong. He was worried that his godmother would feel sorry for him, but now it seems that he should be on guard against his godfather.
When Zhou Shuren saw his wife looking at him, he sat up straight and spoke seriously about the Ministry of Rites again.
Wu Ming, "......."
He really wanted to laugh. A few days ago, he was still a little skeptical about his godfather's letter, but now he believes it!
Time passed quickly. Zhulan looked at the accumulated water everywhere and sighed, "Time flies by so fast. It seems like yesterday that the snow just melted into water."
You can still see snow everywhere now, there is water everywhere, and the branches of the trees are green.
Xuemei also sighed, "Who says it's not true? My daughter has been in the capital for almost two months."
Zhulan looked at Yudie and Yuyi who were looking for grass to play with, and asked her daughter, "Are your parents-in-law still growing vegetables?"
Xuemei smiled and said, "There are many wealthy families in the capital. The vegetables they grow in their houses have earned them a lot of money, but they are still growing them!"
There are many empty rooms in our house, and my parents-in-law have been busy with it. The money used to buy meat and vegetables this month was all spent by my parents-in-law. Now they are living a happy life.
Zhu Lan also asked, "Wu Ming will get married in two days, and then Wu Yong. After they get married, I can take a break."
The Wu family's house had already been decorated. She checked it several times. She also sent Mrs. Song to live with them for a few days to teach the Wu family's servants. All the servants of the Wu family were brought to the capital by Wu Ming. When they arrived in the capital, Wu Ming did not buy any of them, which shows how cautious Wu Ming was.
Xuemei looked at her mother and said, "Mom, you have lost a lot of weight these days."
Zhulan smiled happily. This was her biggest gain. She lost two pounds. Although she was still fat, it was within her acceptable range. "It's better to be thinner. I feel much better these days."
Seeing that her mother was in good spirits, Xuemei didn't say much. In fact, she thought it was better for her mother to be a little fatter.
Yudie and Yuyi came running over covered in mud, holding the grass they had found. The grass was not very big, and as soon as it emerged, the two little girls were overjoyed, as if they had found a treasure to show off.
Zhulan looked at the mud stains on her clothes and pinched the faces of her two granddaughters. "You two are becoming more and more naughty like boys."
Yudie looked at the marks on her grandmother's clothes and quickly put her hands behind her back.
Zhulan was not angry, because Yudie was weak, and Zhao was not angry because Yudie was naughty. He wished that Yudie would act like a boy, because being naughty meant that she was in good health.
As for Yuyi, she is always naughty like Yudie.
Zhulan asked her mother-in-law to take her two granddaughters to change clothes. Although the temperature had risen, it was still very cold. The children could play for a while, but they couldn't stand it for a long time.
Xuemei helped her mother back to the house, saying as they walked, "Mom, I just went to see Mrs. Dong. I think my brother and sister-in-law will only be here for a few days."
Zhu Lan said, "I asked Old Doctor Liu to come and see her, and it is indeed only a few days away."
"My sister-in-law is very nervous."
Zhulan sighed, "It will be fine after the baby is born."
At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren was chatting with Wang Ju, and asked casually, "How is your brother-in-law in Jeju?"
Wang Ju looked relieved, "I was demoted to county magistrate. I've learned my lesson this time. Although I don't have much ability, I'm still good in Jeju."
Zhou Shuren smiled and said, "I still want to go back to the capital!"
Wang Ju nodded, "Yes."
Zhou Shuren did not continue talking. When Wang Ju's brother-in-law left Beijing, he wanted to leave his six-year-old daughter to the Tao family. Fortunately, Wang Ju was not confused and did not keep her. Cousins and so on, well, these were all heard from his wife, and he remembers them very clearly now.
So he generously gave Wang Ju a day off, which touched Wang Ju deeply.
Wang Ju whispered, "The Fifth Prince has been very active lately."
Zhou Shuren, "He has always been very active."
Wang Ju coughed and said, "Third Prince is wrong. The King of Chu and the King of Liang have been fighting fiercely recently."
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard and said, "You want to ask me if Lord Ran is going back to Beijing!"
Wang Ju laughed dryly, "It's because the Third Prince, Prince Chu, has been trying to get close to the Ran family recently. I'm just curious."
Zhou Shuren snorted, "I think you are used to getting news from me."
Wang Ju looked away guiltily. Who could have made Zhou Shuren's information so accurate? Zhou Shuren was extremely popular in the capital and the emperor had summoned him to the palace many times recently.
Zhou Shuren could tell at a glance what Wang Ju was thinking. When he liked to enter the palace, he knew that living with the emperor was like living with a tiger. He was the last person who wanted to know any news, let alone chat with the emperor. He felt that he had been feeling unwell recently!
Zhou Shuren still gave Wang Ju a reply, "I received a letter from Ran Zheng."
He didn't say anything else, but Ran Zhengxin did indicate that he was going back to Beijing.
Wang Ju got the news and could explain to his father when he got home, but at the same time he felt sad. Zhou Shuren was not giving him face, but giving him face for his promise. If he did not fulfill his promise in the future, Zhou Shuren would not let him go. Whatever he got now, he would have to pay back in the future.
This old fox has everything planned out.
When Qiu Yan came out, he saw a thin man and a fat man. As the weather got warmer, Zhou Shuren became thin again. He sighed again that they had become really good friends in the past two days.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. It was Wu Ming's wedding day. Wu Ming had no elder parents, so Zhu Lan and Zhou Shuren were his godfather and godmother, and they sat in the main seat today.
Zhulan was still moved when she saw the newlyweds worshipping heaven and earth. She was moved that she and Zhou Shuren had grown stronger and given Wu Ming a better future.
There are quite a few guests coming today, and they all come for Zhou Shuren because of the emperor.
The emperor is old and no longer knows how to summon ministers individually, because every move will involve the court. Now he only summoned Zhou Shuren, who has no family in the capital. It is not enough to summon him once or twice. If he is summoned more often, he will be summoned once every seven days.
The result was that there were too many visiting cards from the Zhou family, and too many people approached him. Several princes, no, it should be the princes who were more polite to Zhou Shuren. They would meet him by chance from time to time, trying to get some information out of him.
After the wedding ceremony, Zhulan didn't have to worry about the rest. After dinner, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren got up and went home.
The next day, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren met the two newlyweds, drank tea with them, and Zhulan also gave them a gift.
Zhou Shuren left afterwards. Wu Ming didn't leave in a hurry because he had a day off. He chatted for a few words and then went to find Changzhong.
Zhu Lan said to Song Lan, "If you are wronged in the future, tell your godmother and she will help you vent your anger."
Song Lan felt a little embarrassed. Yesterday, her husband handed over all the family assets to her. This was her husband's trust. She was happy and said with her head down, "My husband is very good to me."
Zhulan smiled and said, "That's good. As long as you and your wife are happy, we, the elders, can rest assured."
Song Lan was satisfied with this marriage because she had no serious parents-in-law, she was the boss of the Wu family, and her husband had told her the truth, so she was the one who made the decisions in the Wu family.
At noon, in the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren met Ran Zheng. He was really surprised, "You came to Beijing so soon?"
