It was inconvenient for Zhulan to get up. Zhou Shuren supported her, and Zhulan sat up. "A post from the Department of Maritime Affairs."
Zhou Shuren pursed his lips unhappy, "You've been over nine months, they don't know?"
At this time, it's good to provoke his nerves.
Zhulan smiled, "People know, so it's not an invitation post, it's a visiting post."
Zhou Shuren sneered, "Weasel's New Year's greetings are not at ease, they are in a hurry to know the news from the capital."
The right servant is not only the emperor's inner ghost, but also hopes that he can quickly understand the taxation through this matter. According to his understanding of the emperor, the emperor does not want to move these people yet.
Zhulan was puzzled, "What news from the capital?"
Zhou Shuren, "Your servant's house has been raided."
Bamboo Orchid, "......"
Therefore, she should not stop thinking about it in the future. Zhulan couldn't help but touch her stomach. Fortunately, she is about to give birth. She doesn't need to see guests during the confinement period, so she should be able to escape, right?
Zhou Shuren thought, "Why don't you think of a reason to refuse."
Zhulan, "I've already agreed. It's not good to regret it now. You can rest assured. It's just a matter of seeing. It just happens that I'll see what means."
Zhou Shuren was silent, Zhulan would have to meet sooner or later, these people will not give up until their goals are achieved, and it is not easy to refuse the first time and the second time, so it is better to meet directly, "If you feel uncomfortable, see off the guest."
"understood."
When the food was brought up, Zhou Shuren helped Zhulan over to eat.
Now the Zhou family eats separately, and the Zhou family does not buy any more people. Because there are some servants in the mansion, Zhulan picked out the cooking skills and sent them to the kitchen. They eat separately, and the kitchen can be busy. .
There is a number of meals for each room for a day. What you want to eat can be done according to the amount of money, and you can add money if you exceed it.
After eating separately, Zhou Shuren was the most satisfied, finally being able to eat at the same table with Zhulan.
After dinner, Mrs. Song came. This is a daily routine. Zhulan asked the child, "How is the child's condition today?"
Madam Song replied, "This young lady has drank more milk than yesterday, and her hands and feet have gained some strength."
Zhulan smiled, "That's good."
She didn't ask Zhou Shuren to name the child, even if she said she was superstitious, she really hoped that the child would grow up safely.
Zhulan asked again, "Where's the second wife?"
Mrs. Song said without any concealment: "Second wife thinks about it, the care lady doesn't use slaves and maids very much today, and the second wife did it herself."
Zhulan breathed a sigh of relief, that's fine, she was afraid that the Zhao family would resent the child, "Go back, come back in a few days."
Mrs. Song, "Yes."
When Zhulan asked Zhao, she thought of Fang. Fang thought that the Zhou family would be in Lizhou City for many years. Knowing that the Zhou family was leaving, Fang wanted to follow her, but in the end she gave up because of Qian Keqi.
Qian Keqi studied well in the academy, he liked the environment of the academy very much, and the gentleman of the academy was also good. Mrs. Fang just talked to Mrs. Zhao before leaving for the anniversary, but he didn't dare to come and say it in front of her.
Early the next morning, Zhou Shuren worriedly told Zhulan to leave before leaving.
Zhou Shuren didn't leave for a while when Mrs. Liu, the wife of Mrs. Maritime Affairs Division, came. Mrs. Liu did not come by herself, but brought her two daughters.
After sitting down, Mrs Liu said, "I heard that my sister is forty this year, why can't I look at it?"
Zhulan smiled, "How old does Liu Shuren think I am?"
Liu's hand holding the tea paused, she deliberately approached, and Yang gave it back. This is because she doesn't want to be close, so it is also what Lord Zhou meant?
She came well prepared, and knew a lot about the Yang family. Knowing that the Yang family was not a good person, Liu family didn't expect to get close with a single word, "I think my sister is only thirty-five, and my sister and I can't. By the way, I'm only four years older than my sister, and I'm still not young even if I take care of it carefully!"
Zhulan's skin has indeed improved a lot, and the wrinkles on her eyes have also decreased. It was all due to her pregnancy and she gained weight. "Liu Shuren is joking, I think Shuren is younger, similar to me!"
Liu Shi laughed, "I like to hear what my sister said."
Zhulan thought to herself, she would also be flattering. Thinking about the coughing and coughing, she was not less flattering. Zhulan saw the hairpin on Liu Shixiao's head trembling, and felt in her heart that the Secretary of Maritime Affairs really has money. , not to mention the jewelry on Liu's head, just say that the jade bracelet on Liu's hand is a rare treasure, and then look at the fabric of the clothes, I have made a lot of money in the past two years.
Zhulan looked at the two girls, both of them were good looking, but the jewelry dazzled her eyes.
Seeing Mrs. Yang looking at the two daughters, Mrs. Liu was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Look at me, I just feel that my sister is kind and happy, but I forgot to introduce it. This is my third daughter, Min Ying, who is sixteenth this year. It's my youngest daughter Min Yu, ten years old this year."
Zhulan also understands the situation of the seagoing family. It is all the information collected by Zhou Shuren. She will recite it when she is free. When she thinks of it, Zhulan can't help twitching her mouth. There are really many people in each family. There are a lot of concubines and concubine daughters, plus grandchildren, Zhulan has carried it for a long time.
The mistress of the Min family, Lord Haiwu, is incredible. The Liu family is a capable person. She is not like some mistresses who do not like to see their concubine and daughters. Liu Shi did not name his concubine, but he was educated by heart.
The Liu family only gave birth to one daughter, Min Yu, and there were three named, two were married, and the remaining one was Min Ying.
Zhulan suddenly knew what Liu was doing, not to ask for news, but to marry her. She didn't think Liu was going to marry her little girl to Changzhi. Changzhi and the Min family didn't pay attention and said no. The prospective family was prepared for the prince, and he bet on becoming a concubine in the future, so it was the sixteen-year-old Min Ying.
Don't talk about family background, just talk about Min Ying's people, Zhulan doesn't like it, it looks like he has been brainwashed since childhood.
Zhu Lan said with a smile, "Liu Shu's lady really deserves her reputation."
Liu Shi is happy. The girls she has raised are all girls. She is not stupid. It is enough for a girl to give her dowry. She didn't want to raise it, but she cultivated her with heart, so that she can marry for the Min family in the future and have more powerful in-laws~ www.novelhall.com~ It's also good for her son, Liu Shi hooked her mouth, "My sister likes it too?"
Zhulan said in her heart that she didn't like thank you, she would rather Changzhi find a king flower, and said with a smile, "Shuren is joking."
Mrs. Liu's smile froze. A smart person could understand what it meant in one sentence. She was just trying, and Mrs. Yang gave it back. Mrs. Liu glanced at the two girls behind Mrs. Her second son is a good match, but it's a pity that she got married early. After being married for many years, she was a childhood sweetheart and has long been in love. No matter how much she wanted to get married, she would not use her son. It was a pity in her heart.
As for the other girl, if she hadn't come to Zhou Mansion, she wouldn't even look at her, her reputation was not good, and her family background was also very poor.
Zhulan doesn't like Liu's looking at her daughter and Wu Hao like she is looking at goods. Liu's politeness to her is because of Zhou Shuren, but Liu's will not be polite to Wu Hao, critical eyes, contemptuous eyes, Zhulan Yuguang Seeing Wu Yan's face turned pale.
Zhulan snorted, this frightened Xuehan, Xuehan hurriedly said, "Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Zhulan touched her stomach, it really wasn't her pretending, really, she wanted to send Liu Shi away, but she never thought of taking her stomach to pretend, "I, I really want to give birth."
