Chapter 282 I miss you guys so much!
Life takes time, wouldn’t it be better to have something ready-made?
Then, he himself felt that this idea was too weird.
"Mother, don't be in a hurry." As soon as he said the word "hurry", the figure of Jiang Lianzhu appeared in his mind.
It seems that there is no need to rush.
If you can hurry, that's fine.
Mrs. Zhou was unhappy. "Why aren't you in a hurry? You ignored everything mother said. I just finished the case in Daliangzhou. I think we should take advantage of this opportunity to finalize the marriage. It's just right. Princess Xiu'er has been waiting for you for several years. I also have several nieces from my family who I think are suitable. I won't force you. You can choose for yourself. We will decide which one you like..."
Liao Jiu frowned, "I'm afraid my son is not worthy of Her Highness the Princess."
Madam Zhou said, "Princess Xiu'er is different from other princesses. She is very generous. I have already sounded her out. I told her that I only gave birth to you as a son, and you will definitely be the heir to our Qingning Marquisate in the future. You are so outstanding, and the more branches the better. The princess said that you can take a concubine. If she insists on marrying you, then I will choose a cousin who is born out of wedlock for you to be your first concubine. This will not hinder either side and will strengthen the relationship."
Liao Jiu felt that the air in the room was suffocating.
"Mother, I will not hinder Her Royal Highness's future. As for my cousins, they are of no use. They are all daughters of noble families, and if they become concubines, they will lose the dignity of the Prime Minister's Mansion. You don't need me to worry about my son's marriage. I will let fate decide when the time comes. I don't want to do anything about it for now."
Mrs. Zhou was more sensitive. "Son, do you have someone else outside?"
She had mentioned this before, but Liao Jiu had not refused so explicitly. He just kept saying that he had a lot of things to do and had to serve the emperor, so he had no time to get married and start a career. Today, his attitude was different. He refused clearly, and he refused both sides.
Liao didn't speak for a long time.
Mrs. Zhou thought about it. Her son had been away on business in Daliangzhou for a long time. He was away from home for such a long time...
Her face turned cold.
He said in a cold voice, "Is it some country girl from Daliangzhou who has bewitched you? Liao Wuyang, you should know what kind of people your mother hates the most? Those country girls of low birth, whose lives are as fragile as paper, but whose ambitions are as high as the sky, I can turn a blind eye if you marry them as concubines. But if you have other thoughts, don't even think about it, I will never agree!"
Liao Jiu didn't know where to start.
If he said that she was a divorced country girl with three children, I wonder if Mrs. Zhou would faint on the spot?
After a moment of silence, he said, "Mom, you think too much."
At this moment, a servant came from outside and said, "Governor, the emperor has ordered you to come to the palace immediately..."
Liao Jiu just felt relieved.
He said goodbye to Mrs. Zhou and slipped away quickly.

When they were going home, Jiang Lianzhu and the others packed up several carriages, so now they were going to the town with light luggage.
There are spare clothes on both sides, as well as quilts, cotton wool and other items.
It’s not like before, when we were poor and only had one set of belongings. We had to bring even our bedding with us when we went out.
Both sides of the meal are well fed and there is no need to bring any food.
Just let Dabao and Erbao carry their own schoolbags.
Nanbao also carried a small cloth bag. Jiang Lianzhu found a simple, lightweight and foldable cloth bag from the armory for her. It was cute and comfortable. She filled it with food, drinks and some of her precious toys.
The three snow wolves, just like before, ran around the carriage happily, sometimes in front, sometimes behind, and sometimes disappearing into the mountains and forests, like three stupid balls.
Jifeng did not follow them into the town, nor did he stay in Wangjia Village. Instead, he flew back to his nest.
When it entered the town, there were too many people and it was not used to it.
Jiang's Medical Clinic cannot provide it with a nest or too much space to move around like a large courtyard in the countryside.
In Wangjia Village, Jiang Lianzhu and the others had left. Firstly, the owners were not there, and secondly, no one fed it. It might as well go back to the mountains and be the king. If it wanted to go to Shili Town, it would be easy. It could just flap its wings and arrive in a flash.
It’s not far anyway.
This is the arrangement for now. Next time, if someone comes to see Jifeng, he is welcome to visit his nest on the cliff, but there will be no delicious roasted sweet potatoes for him to eat.
…
Jiang Lianzhu and her family took Erya back to the Jiang Clinic. It had been uninhabited for over a month and was covered in dust.
Erya was very diligent and started cleaning without Jiang Lianzhu telling her to do so.
After cleaning up the house, Jiang Lianzhu arranged for Erya to live in a room in the yard. There were several empty wards in the yard, and usually no one stayed there. Erya was very satisfied.
He smiled and said that he had never lived in a single room in his life, and had always shared a room with his parents and sister. Now he had the luxury of living in a room by himself, and he was happy.
After everything was packed up, Jiang Lianzhu opened the door of the clinic and opened for business.
The shopkeeper of the Lin family had been waiting for this moment, and he was very particular and asked the waiter to come over and set off a string of firecrackers for Jiang Lianzhu.
Neighbors from all around came to watch.
"Hey, Doctor Jiang, you're finally back. I've had a lot of headaches and fevers since you were away. I've been looking forward to you opening the clinic..."
"That's right. When Doctor Jiang is not around, I feel insecure and uncomfortable all over."
"Dr. Jiang, Happy New Year! Good luck in starting a new business!"
"Hahaha, our baby girl seems to have grown a little rounder and become even cuter..."
…
Various warm greetings.
Jiang Lianzhu smiled and replied one by one, "Happy New Year, everyone, Happy New Year..."
While being polite, he observed the surroundings and found nothing unusual.
They were all familiar faces, old acquaintances from the neighborhood. It seemed that I didn't see anyone I didn't know, and I felt a little relieved.
At this moment, a little fat man came running over from a distance.
"Aunt Jiang!!! Nanbao! Brother Yue!! I miss you guys so much!"
It’s this guy Mao Jiaman.
After the New Year, the little fat boy grew a little taller.
Speaking of this, Jiang Lianzhu also found that her children had grown taller. Fortunately, their clothes were newly made, so the difference could not be seen, but they had indeed grown taller.
"Little Fatty." Erbao also went up to him excitedly.
Dabao coughed lightly beside him, and Erbao stopped walking. Otherwise, the two brothers would have hugged each other in public on the street.
The little fat man came running over.
Behind him, someone followed, "Little Fatty, slow down! You're running so fast, be careful not to fall. Stay steady!"
Everyone looked over in the direction of the sound.
It was not the fat boy's former servant brush, nor was it the old housekeeper of their family.
