When Zhu Wu pushed Zhu Heng around and came back, Zhu Xu also ended the conversation with the Guozi priest and wanted to return to the palace.

Zhu Wu also came back with him, the father and son rode in the same carriage, and the conversation on the car naturally revolved around this debate, but it was Zhu Wu who talked a lot, and Zhu Heng barely spoke.

Back in the palace, Zhu Heng went directly back to Cining Palace, and Zeng Rong followed the emperor to Qianning Palace, but Zeng Rong did not follow the emperor into Qianning Palace, she went back to the Inner Third Institute to change out of the eunuch clothes and take the burden that had been prepared long ago and hurriedly left the palace.

Zeng Rong went to Xu's house first, and after a few brief explanations with Mrs. Xu, he took Zeng Hua to Nanqing Hutong not far from Xu's house in the carriage of the Xu family, which was where Zeng Fuxiang lived.

As soon as the carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley, Zeng Hua jumped down and looked for it along the mark on the door of the alley, and when Zeng Rong got out of the car and took down the contents of the car, Zeng Hua had already knocked on the iron ring on the door of a house.

It was Zeng Guixiang who opened the door, and when he saw Ah Hua rushing over, Zeng Guixiang stretched out his hand to catch her, and then Zeng Rong heard him ask, "Where is Ah Rong?" ”

Zeng Rong was unhappy, and was about to reply, when he heard Zeng Fuxiang's voice sound, "Ah Hua, Ah Hua, is it you?" ”

"Yes, big brother, it's me, I'm Ah Hua." Zeng Hua let go of Zeng Guixiang, wiped his tears, looked at Zeng Fuxiang and smiled.

Zeng Fuxiang also looked at this sister who he hadn't seen for more than a year with tears in his eyes, and praised her for growing taller and praising her for becoming beautiful.

Less leaning, Zeng Rong also walked to the door, without waiting for her to shout out the "big brother", Zeng Guixiang rushed to her first, "Ah Rong, Ah Rong, come, second brother take a look, tsk, people say that Shi Bei should be impressed for three days, my two younger sisters have not seen each other for more than a year, they have changed, this is going to the street, I don't dare to admit it, one is more expensive than the other." ”

"Second brother, Ah Hua talks about you all day long, it's easy to see you, you don't have a heartwarming word, look at the big brother." Zeng Rong knocked Zeng Guixiang twice.

To be honest, if it weren't for the sake of a mother's compatriots, she really didn't want to take him in.

"Who said it, I didn't talk about her less, I know that you are an embroidery girl outside, Ahua is fostered in the Xu family, I am not less worried about her being homesick at a young age, I don't believe you ask the eldest brother." Zeng Guixiang argued.

"Ah Rong, are you working hard as an embroiderer outside? Who were the two people who came to pick us up? Who bought this house and can we live in it? Zeng Fuxiang had a stomach full of questions, and when he saw Ah Rong, he hurriedly asked.

"Big brother, what about sister-in-law?" Zeng Rong interrupted.

It was also half a stick of incense time when he entered the door, but this sister-in-law didn't show up, Zeng Rong couldn't help but mutter.

"I'm here." As soon as the words fell, a pot-bellied woman lifted the curtain and came out with her stomach propped up.

"Sister-in-law." Zeng Rong and Zeng Hua stepped forward to salute.

Zeng Rong stretched out his hand to help the other party, and looked at it carefully, this woman is not very old, only seventeen or eighteen, not tall, thin, maybe the fatigue of the boat and car has not eased up, the complexion is a little yellow, the appearance is average, the round face, small eyes, the bridge of the nose is a little collapsed, the lips are a little thicker, the complexion is also dark and rough, there are faint spots on the face, I don't know if it is caused by pregnancy or it is like this, the only thing that makes Zeng Rong feel satisfied is that the other party seems to love to laugh, smile and have crooked eyebrows, this kind of heart should not be bad.

"Sister-in-law, will this cause tire gas? Stop standing here, go back to the house and lie down. "Zeng Rong had the experience of pregnancy in his previous life, so he was a little worried.

Knowing that the other party is like this, you really shouldn't be in a hurry to enter Beijing, it's best to give birth to the child and come back after confinement.

"Please ask the doctor to see it, and the doctor also suggested that she stay in bed, presumably when she heard that you were coming, she got out of bed." Zeng Fuxiang said.

"Sister-in-law is like this, it's best to hire a mother-in-law at home to take care of her, you two big men won't take care of people." Zeng Rong proposed.

"Don't, we spend a lot on this trip, how much can you earn as an embroiderer? These people in the family have a lot of expenses. By the way, Ah Rong, I want to go outside and find something to do, but they can't understand what I say, how can this be good? Zeng Fuxiang rubbed his hands and said.

"Big brother, if you want to find something to do, you have to wait for your sister-in-law to give birth to the child, and it is best to finish the confinement." Zeng Rong helped his sister-in-law into the house, and after asking which room it was, he directly helped her to the kang.

Zeng Rong saw that the list of bedding used on the kang was all new, and it was still silk, so he couldn't help but ask, and then he knew that Zhu Heng's people helped buy it.

Look at the furniture in the house is also a full set of brand new, the wood is average, it should be ash, but the application of the utensils are complete enough to be careful.

"Sister-in-law, I'll take a look at this house before I talk to you." Zeng Rong put down the burden in his hand and said.

"I'll come, I'll take you." Zeng Guixiang said outside the door.

The house is two-in, the upper rooms of the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard are all three, but they all bring a partial room as a clean room, the inner courtyard is temporarily vacant, Zeng Fuxiang said that it was reserved for Zeng Rong and Zeng Hua sisters to live, so he and his wife lived in the front yard.

Zeng Guixiang In order to be clean, he chose the west wing, one bright and two dark, one clean room, one bedroom and one study, and the east wing was temporarily idle.

With such a house and such a lot, Zeng Rong guessed that he would not be able to get it without 1,500 taels of silver.

The monthly allowance of the prince in the palace is not high, and before he got married, he only spent 20 taels of silver and 10 yuan a month, plus meals, installation fees and various other expenses, and the annual expenditure did not exceed 1,000 taels of silver.

Zhu Heng takes medicine all year round, and Zeng Rong doesn't know if these are counted in his expenses, and she never asks him about this.

But in any case, fifteen hundred taels of silver is not a decimal.

"Ah Rong, you haven't told me who this house is?" Zeng Fuxiang saw Zeng Rong come back from looking around the house and asked.

"It's a friend's, I didn't ask you what it is, you can live in peace first." Zeng Rong said.

According to her original intention, she wanted them to move out, and Mrs. Xu had already bought the house for her.

But Zhu Heng took the trouble to bring people all the way to her for her, and arranged it so completely, if Zeng Rong ignored his intentions, it was hard to say that he would not be angry or disappointed.

As for the mansion that Mrs. Xu bought, Zeng Rong planned to ask Zhu Heng before deciding whether to keep or sell it.

"What friend? Male or female? Zeng Fuxiang asked.

"Big brother, don't worry about this, you can't say it clearly." Zeng Rong didn't want to say that she had always been in charge of her own affairs.

There is another reason, she doesn't want them to know that she has met the second prince, and a fool can guess that an extremely noble prince is willing to do these things for her, and this relationship can be far away?
