Chapter 203: Raid on the Lord
Chunhui Hall West Courtyard.
"How is my aunt doing recently?" the fourth master Zhou greeted warmly.
Aunt Lian squinted and smiled, "Okay, good, Aunt is fine!" Then she looked at Zhou Shen for a while, frowned, and said, "It's you, are you tired these days, it doesn't seem to be very good! I still have some body-tonifying herbs here, take them back and let your daughter-in-law help you boil them......
Seeing that Aunt Lian really wanted to get up to get something, Zhou Shen hurriedly grabbed it, a little crying and laughing, "Auntie, don't go, you can use those anywhere, I'm in good health!"
Aunt Lian still didn't feel at ease, "I didn't care when I was young, but when I got old, I would know that it was amazing!"
Zhou Shen was afraid that she would continue to chatter, so he hurriedly continued, "Don't worry, your daughter-in-law has a lot there, you can keep it for yourself!"
Aunt Lian paused, thinking of Zhang's family background, she no longer insisted, this time the things are really not good, and it is not too late to give Shen'er a good next time, anyway, the future will be long.
She looked up at Zhou Shen again, and the smile on the corner of her eyebrows couldn't hide it.
Zhou Shen was uncomfortable, and asked strangely, "Auntie, what's wrong with you?"
Aunt Lian turned her head to look at the girl at the door, then smiled and asked in a low voice, "What are my son's plans?"
"Plans?" Zhou Ze frowned and said blankly, "What plans?"
Seeing that he didn't understand, Aunt Lian hated iron and couldn't make steel, "Of course it's a matter of the house!"
"What's going on in the house?" Zhou Shen was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "You're talking about the eldest brother!"
Speaking of the eldest brother, Zhou affectionately xΓΉ was a little depressed, "Alas, it's been so long, the eldest brother and Brother Jing have no news, and I don't know what the situation is?" As he spoke, he sighed again, "It's a shame that I can only sit here and wait, and I can't help anything!"
Aunt Lian was stunned, this is fundamentally different from what she said.
But I also feel sorry for my son. I had to comfort, "Don't worry, there are so many people looking for it in our mansion, Guangyuan Bo's mansion and the imperial court, maybe there will be news in a few days!"
"I hope so!"
Seeing Zhou Shen's listless look. Aunt Lian almost blurted out the words stuck in her throat and considered and deliberated, but after all, she still couldn't help but say tentatively, "What if, I mean, what if Uncle Jing and Brother Jing can't come back?"
"What did Auntie say?" Zhou Shen frowned.
Seeing that her son was unhappy, Aunt Lian hurriedly explained. "Auntie knows that your brother has a good relationship, but now we are talking about things, you are not a child anymore, Auntie is just giving you a reminder!" said and pointed outside, "What is it like over there these days, don't you know, are you willing to let him get it?"
Zhou Shen opened his mouth, wanted to say something, and swallowed it back.
You don't have to look at him to know which aunt is referring to, and it's not a day or two to jump in the second room.
Let's be honest. If the eldest brother and Brother Jing are really - without the eldest son and grandson, the second brother is indeed the most promising, but the second brother is ...... Zhou Shen thought that he would live by looking at his eyes in the future, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"Your father has always liked you, and he handed over all the chores in the house to you, even if it is for the sake of Master Hou, you should think about it more......"
Out of Chunhui Hall, Aunt Lian's words still echoed in Zhou Shen's ears, until she returned to Meixiangyuan, and the breath in her heart did not turn around.
Zhang asked him. "What's wrong with you today?"
Zhou Shen said sullenly. "Nothing, there are some things I haven't figured out. β
For Zhang's family, Zhou Shen is still quite satisfied. Although his background is not very high, he has a good personality. The family is well organized, and he gave birth to a pair of lovely children.
The relationship between the two has always been harmonious, and there is a lot of discussion when there is something, but Zhou Shen is rarely like this.
Zhang was a little worried, and asked again, "Is there something wrong with my aunt?"
Zhou Shen was disturbed by Aunt Lian's place. I didn't want Zhang to mention this again, and I was depressed and a little impatient at the same time, "Don't worry about it!"
As soon as the words came out, he regretted that he shouldn't have taken his anger out on his wife, but he didn't know how to explain it for a while.
Zhang still understands his temperament in the end, seeing that he is so unusual today, although he is a little angry with his words, he still patiently said, "If it is a side matter, you don't say it, but if your aunt is really something, you should sue me, you have experienced less in this back house, in case there is something you can't see that makes your aunt feel wronged, and you will be uncomfortable again!"
His wife's words were gentle, and every word was for herself and her aunt, and Zhou Shen felt even more guilty.
In the past, he was in charge of the house's affairs, and he often had to run outside, but his aunt's side was indeed thanks to Zhang's care, and his aunt praised him several times.
"It's not that there's something wrong with my aunt, but it's ......" After thinking about it, Zhou Shen still decided to ask Zhang's opinion, so he roughly explained what Aunt Fang Cailian meant.
Hearing that it wasn't Aunt Lian who had something to do, Zhang's first let go.
The husband is a concubine, with Mrs. Hou's mother-in-law and an aunt-in-law, and one of them may go wrong if she is not careful. Fortunately, Mrs. Hou is a trouble-free, and she has been smooth all these years.
However, after listening to her husband's words, she pursed her lips and didn't make a sound.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that she had been silent, Zhou Shen couldn't help but ask, "What do you think?"
Zhang lowered his head and thought for a moment before asking, "Fourth Master is tempted?"
Zhou Shen was stunned, and suddenly understood the source of his impatience.
Even if he is demoted to the throne, it is a step to the sky, and what man can withstand this temptation?
He replied with a wry smile, "It's not normal to be tempted by this kind of thing!"
Zhang nodded, not at all surprised, and asked, "Is the fourth master sure?"
"Sure?" Zhou Shen shook his head, "The third brother doesn't mention it first, just the second brother, can he spit out the fat that is about to arrive?
Zhang glanced at Zhou Shen and couldn't help but smile with relief.
It seems that the husband was not stunned by this "big pie", and he still saw the reality clearly, knowing how many pounds and taels he weighed.
Since this is the case, she doesn't need to worry about it, and directly says what is in her heart.
"The fourth master's mind and concubine body understand, it is said that husband and wife are one, they should advance and retreat together, and there is some truth in my aunt's words, and there is nothing right or wrong about this matter!-" She paused before continuing, "Once this thing is done, the fourth master will have to bear the corresponding consequences!"
Seeing Zhou Shen's thoughtful expression, Zhang's confidence was two points higher, and he continued, "Let's not talk about whether the eldest brother and Brother Jing can come back, just talk about the side of the house, if the fourth master makes up his mind, it will be difficult to get along with the long room and the second room in the future! Although Mrs. Hou has not moved now, she should be unwilling to think about it, so if you don't say it well, we will make enemies on three sides! The remaining third room is over, the third brother is promising, and he himself ......."
Thinking of the little wind that he vaguely heard before, Zhang changed what he was about to say, "The third brother has always had a good relationship with the eldest brother, what kind of mind is he, can the fourth master get it?" Also, Brother Chen is still young, ...... in the future."
The conversation in the room grew quieter, except for the occasional crackling of candle flames. (To be continued.) )
