What made Zhou Wei a little distressed was not Zilan's embarrassment, in fact, the Cui family was very easy to get along with, the old lady was kind and full of knowledge, and his lifetime of experience in dealing with things was enough for him to learn for a lifetime.

Several elders also have their own characteristics, and their knowledge is outstanding, and it is more than enough to teach him.

It's just that he hasn't been able to see Qingwan, which makes him scratch his heart a little, and he can occasionally take a look at it from a distance, but he has never met up close.

He knew that Zilan was deliberately embarrassing him, and only after many inquiries did he know that in fact, Zilan, the aunt, really loved Qingwan, and had always planned to tell her a child of a prestigious family, like the Cui family, who was not allowed to take concubines all her life and live a peaceful and beautiful life.

I don't want her to enter the palace to take on the situation of the harem, but I hope she can be a clan wife.

Zhou Wei understood why even if he was the only son of the queen, he couldn't be because of his son's blue eyes.

Maybe in the eyes of this Jingyi county lord, the men who hug him left and right are not good men, and they are not the best choice.

Thinking of this, he was a little aggrieved, but he had more doubts and unwillingness. But seeing that their Cui family husband and wife are in love with the United States, they are a little envious and understanding.

In the study, Zilan is still taking the school Zhou Wei's knowledge, which is actually not difficult, mainly to guide him to learn government affairs, and while solving many difficulties independently, he can also learn a lot of things and deepen his impression.

Only those who take the initiative to seek answers and go through a lot of hardships are the most memorable.

During the interrogation interrogation, Zhou Wei suddenly asked, "Auntie, is it important for women to take concubines?" ”

Zilan glanced up at him, saw that he was serious, touched his chin and thought about it, "I don't know what others think, but everyone pursues different things, so I don't want to enter the palace to pursue power."

I have always wished that I could live a peaceful and harmonious life, and taking a concubine has undoubtedly ruined my dreams.

Why would you suddenly ask that? ”

Zhou Wei lowered his head and said a little lost, "Although I rarely see Qingwan, I can feel that she doesn't like me very much." ”

Zilan smiled, "How do you think so?" ”

"I see the way you and your uncle get along, and you look at each other with a radiant look in your eyes, different from others. When the sisters of the clan saw their fiancé, their eyes were also very bright and moving.

But Qingwan treats me no differently, very respectful but also alienated. I'm not afraid that you will laugh at me, even my cousin is shy and happy when she looks at me, I didn't understand it before, but now I think I understand, Qingwan doesn't like me, right? ”

Zhou Wei has not experienced the relationship between men and women, but it doesn't mean that he can't ponder and study, and he can get the answer after comparison, smart people always have many ways to get the truth.

Zilan smiled, "She's guarding against you." I think she has a crush and attraction to you, but you are destined to not be able to have only one woman, and there will be many other women in the future.

Qingwan was taught by me, it is inevitable that she will be like me, I won't give you all if I can't get everything, maybe she is also afraid that she will fall in love with you, and the person who is disappointed and sad in the end must be her.

She is the eldest daughter of the Cui family, the child I taught, just like my daughter, no matter what time she has high requirements for herself, for the family, for me and for my parents, she does not allow herself to be embarrassed and fail.

She is qualified enough to be a wife, so are you qualified to be a lover who will never leave you for a lifetime? It has nothing to do with identity and status.

The emperor once said to me that I loved the queen, but I don't know when we lost our feelings for each other and went further and further.

It wasn't until the end that I understood that loving someone has nothing to do with identity and power, but unfortunately I understood it too late, we were all too proud, we couldn't let go of face and self-esteem, and we lost the opportunity to redeem again and again.

The emperor advised me to cherish what I have around me, to be a person who can protect the beauty in your heart, no matter who you want to protect, no matter what you want to protect, you must first be strong and be able to withstand the wind and rain of the outside world.

This is the truth that the emperor taught me, and I will give it to you. If you want Qingwan to like you, you have to work hard yourself, I can't help you. ”

Zilan shrugged and smiled.

Zhou Wei tilted his head a little confused, but he understood that he was still young and had a long way to go.

In fact, after contact, Zilan and Cui's family like Zhou Wei very much, practical and studious, diligent and hard-working, frank and generous, smart but steady, never clever and clever, very correct attitude when doing learning, serious and careful, and the attitude of being a person is also very positive.

Zhou Wei pondered for a long time, "I envy the way the Cui family gets along, I don't know if I can do it, I have my responsibility, and I also want to protect the queen mother and protect the Li family."

Just like the queen mother loves her father very much, but she still has to share my father with other women, in fact, she is also very painful. ”

Zilan looked at him with a smile, "This problem needs to be solved by yourself." ”

Zhou Wei sighed wistfully.

No one talked about it anymore.

Zhou Wei and Qingwan actually have very few opportunities to meet, but they can get to know each other through other channels, and this Zilan did not stop them.

Zhou Wei often gave small gifts to Qingwan, and once he was beaten by Brother Yan when he climbed the window, but that time Qingwan smiled, and Zhou Wei was demented like a fool.

Their marriage decree was given in the summer, and no date was given, after all, they were still young, and they had to wait a little longer.

After the will was officially issued, Zilan allowed them to meet, and Zhou Wei ran more diligently to Cui's house, but he could only see him once in five times.

The two gradually got to know each other's personalities, habits and hobbies, and actually had a lot of good feelings for each other, and they were more satisfied with each other.

Qingwan and Zhou Wei's relationship is also becoming more and more relaxed, revealing her true nature, maybe she has figured out some problems.

Brother Lu went out to study, where to go Zilan didn't ask, the child is older and has to be independent, let him go outside and have a look, it doesn't matter where he goes, there are Yuze and guards to protect his safety, and she is not worried.

Brother Ling and Brother Xin were admitted to Lushan Academy and went to school, and as soon as the children in the family left, they suddenly seemed much empty.

Zilan took Qingwan to accompany the old man to live in the hot spring Zhuangzi, where he could be idle, and the place was also great for the old man to take a walk and have a place to relax and play.

This is also the only time that Qingwan can accompany the old man.

Qingwan has a good impression of Zhou Wei, but it hasn't reached the point of love yet, Zilan didn't ask much, the more she asked, the worse it might be, let them get along with themselves, no matter what the mode they have, they have to be husband and wife for a lifetime, and it is good to find the most comfortable way for each other to get along.

The old lady and the old lady have been getting worse and worse in the past two years, they are always sleepy, their spirits are not good, sometimes they can't hear clearly, Zilan knows that the old man's time is running out.

She gave up everything and accompanied the two elders in the Zhuangzi, making them happy, taking care of their diet and daily life, and doing her last filial piety.
