Chapter 795： Where are the shadows

Chapter 795

In the afternoon, Ning Guogong's family just left. Zhulan and Zhou Shuren were both exhausted and panicked. When they sent away the people from Guogong's mansion, Zhulan and his wife went back to the room to rest. As for the thank you gift, they didn't have the energy to look at it. Anyway, they couldn't lose it. , rest is great.

Zhou Shuren changed his clothes and lay down comfortably, "Although we don't talk about political affairs, Ning Guogong and Ninghou Ye asked a lot."

It was too tiring for him to face the five men of the Ning family alone!

Zhulan can be better, she only needs to accompany Mrs. Ning Guogong. Later, Mrs. Guogong goes to rest when she is tired, she only needs to deal with Du Shi, "What does this madam say, she actually told me personally, fortunately our daughter is married to The Hou Mansion, the Du family doesn't dare to care."

Don't look at Du Shi's gentle face, she talked a lot and knew a little about Du Shi, this is not a really big person.

Zhou Shuren turned over, "Don't talk about them."

Zhulan also closed her eyes, "Yeah."

In the big room, Mrs. Li was fanning with a fan, and muttered, "Fortunately, the meal was not wrong, I have been carrying this in my heart."

Today, she has been tensing her heartstrings, and she is deeply afraid that she will lose the people of the Zhou family during her housekeeping period, make Ning Guogong look down on them, and finally send them away. She is a little out of power now.

Yulu took the fan in her mother's hand, "Mother, my daughter will fan you."

Li's heart is right, but the girl still loves her so much, and she still asks her a little unconfidently, "Mother's performance today is okay!"

Yulu had a smile in her eyes. Under the pressure, her mother made great progress and nodded, "Very good, very eldest daughter-in-law."

Li grinned, "My daughter's words must be the truth."

Yu Lu felt that her mother was too cute, "Mother, is Dad coming back soon?"

Li Shi's heart was empty, "Well, I should have set off and returned."

In the second room, Mrs Zhao was a little dazed, Yushuang sat over and thought her mother was being bullied, "Mother, did you hear something bad?"

Zhao returned to her senses, hugged her youngest daughter Yudie, and said with a smile, "No one said anything bad, my mother just felt like it was in a dream."

Although Song and Yu treated her lightly, they were still polite. This was the granddaughter-in-law of Ning Guogong's mansion!

Who would have thought that when she was a child, she was bullied, and when she grew up, there was a drought, and she was always ready to die. Now that she has children and daughters, everyone would call her second wife when she went out. She was really afraid that it was a dream.

Yushuang held her mother's hand. Mother had experienced too much and was worried about gains and losses, "Mother, this is not a dream."

Zhao Shi smiled, "Mother knows, you are tired too, go back and rest for a while."

Yushuang stood up, "Mother also has a rest."

With that said, he picked up his little sister and took him back to his house.

In the third room, Mr. Dong also sighed, but there are not as many as the big and the second room. It is because only Chang Lian has entered the official career in the Zhou family. There are many posts inviting Mr. Dong and he has a lot of knowledge. .

Su Xuan thought more simply, as long as she was nice to the Zhou family.

In the boundary of Qingzhou, Changyi counted the time. In five days, he would be able to reach the capital. On the return journey, because he bought a lot of things, although he was anxious, he could not drive too fast, and now he was finally home.

Changyi was sitting on the carriage and was thinking about whether to drive overnight. Outside the carriage, Dongmo rode his horse to the window, "Second Master, the Qiangzi who was one step ahead came back, and there was someone in front of the girl who was robbing the people."

Dong Mo has been with the second master for many years, he is just reporting, he knows better than anyone else that the second master is not a nosy person.

Changyi lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked in a low voice, "We've walked this road several times, how do I remember that this is far from the village? But I remembered wrong?"

Dong Mo said: "It is indeed farther away from the village."

Changyi's face was serious, "Turn around, tonight we will go back to the county town we just passed by for the night."

He had to be careful. The higher his father's official position was, the more people would plot against Zhou's family. At the same time, he was very annoyed. He was obviously simple and honest, so why did he trick beauty into him? That's right, Changyi recognized it. , the front is to calculate him.

After Changyi waited for the carriage to turn around, he still pondered in his heart that when he returned to Beijing, he would choose a few more capable people, and he would not go out easily in the future.

After waiting for a long time in front of the convoy, I had no choice but to send someone to inquire. As a result, where there is a convoy, there is not a single person!

The convoy was about to arrive at the county seat, and the strong son Changyi had left behind also rushed up, "Second Master, just after we left for a while, someone sneaked to check."

Changyi snorted, and became more and more annoyed. Seeing that he was in the capital, something bad happened to delay his trip, and he thought to himself whether he should leave first.

In the capital, Zhou Shuren didn't know that his second son was counted again, and he and his wife were counting the gifts.

Zhulan looked at the gift list. There were 5,000 taels of gold and 50,000 taels of silver. Jewelry, many of which have never been polished, can be used as jewelry for granddaughters or as a dowry for Xuehan. Books, calligraphy and paintings are for Zhou Shuren. .

Zhou Shuren has already put away the treasures, and the ornaments are interesting, many of them are in pairs, and it seems that they are used for dowry.

Most of the whole set of jewelry are for her, there are quite a lot of them.

Zhou Shuren said, "I'll go to the study first."

"good."

Zhulan sorted out the gold according to the money borrowed from her by each room, and chose a few pieces of jewelry for each of the four daughters-in-law. The granddaughter was not left behind, so Mrs. Song sent it to each room.

Afterwards, the gold was sealed for 2,000 taels for the niece to be married to the bottom of the box. The rest was put away, and some jewelry was also selected. The Ning Fu sent all rare good things, and these things were reserved for the granddaughters to be married to the bottom of the box. , and the rest are taken away as a dowry for the daughter.

After Zhulan finished tidying up, Mrs. Song also came back, Zhulan sighed, "I look at these things too much, and I will lose a single point."

It's not enough. There are many granddaughters in the family, and they are all granddaughters. Her grandmother must have a flat bowl, and she has to keep a few more copies for her unborn granddaughter.

Mrs. Song thought to herself, that's why Gao's marriage can really pay for her family's wealth. If Zhou's house hadn't filled it with this thank you gift, although the young lady's dowry was a lot, marrying into the Ning's family was still a bit unattractive.

Zhulan took a last look at the sealed box. If it wasn't for Rong Chuan being the fifth prince and the daughter being the future fifth prince concubine, why would she worry so much about her daughter's dowry.

Ninghou Mansion, Ning Xu took Rong Chuan back to the Hou Mansion, and personally took Rong Chuan to the yard, "This yard has been repaired for a long time, and my father stared at the repair, knowing that you don't like luxury, so it's all according to you. I like to set it up.”

Speaking of which, Rong Chuan and the prince's preferences are really similar.

The last time Rong Chuan stayed at was a guest room This time, he felt very different. This is his home, where he will live in the future, "Father, isn't this yard too big?"

It is almost the size of the main courtyard.

Ning Xu smiled, "It's better to be bigger, you are about to get married, but it's not enough if the place is small."

Rong Chuan blushed, "Father, my son is still young, don't be in a hurry."

In Ning Xu's eyes, he's not in a hurry, hmph, this kid has never left Miss Zhou's eyes, and he's not in a hurry, "Since you said you're not in a hurry, it just so happens that Lord Zhou also wants to stay with his daughter for two more years, then two years later?"

Rong Chuan was dumbfounded, and then saw that his father was smiling, he reacted, "Father, why are you teasing your son?"

"Don't be in a hurry, Dad just follows you."

Rong Chuan's ears turned red, "My son likes this yard very much."

Ning Xu laughed, admitting that he was in a hurry!
