When the shopkeeper gave us change, I couldn't help but ask about the current situation of the Zhou family.

I don't know if the bandits robbed Master Zhou of all his net worth this time.

Mingyue and Yunhe came, isn't it a coincidence?

As soon as the shopkeeper heard that I was asking about Master Zhou Songzhai, he said that he estimated that the loss this time was not small, but Master Zhou was not injured.

"How is Mrs. Zhou?" I asked casually.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "Mrs. Zhou? Mrs. Zhou passed away several years ago. ”

"What?" I frowned.

Because, I clearly remember that Mingyue said before that Lu Jingcheng's aunt had just written to the Lu family three months ago.

Why did the shopkeeper say that Mrs. Zhou had died?

"Shopkeeper, you're not mistaken, are you?" I confirm again.

The shopkeeper shook his head and said with a serious face: "Master Zhou's wife did pass away a few years ago, I'll do the math!" ”

The shopkeeper frowned at his stubby brow and pinched his fingers, carefully calculated, and finally said, "Five years ago, about five years ago, I passed away." ”

"Then, does he have other wives and concubines?" I thought about it, Mingyue didn't say that Lu Jingcheng's aunt was the main house, maybe it was his aunt's wife?

When the shopkeeper heard me ask, he hurriedly waved his hand: "Eh! Although Master Zhou is worth a lot of money, he has always been in love with his wife, although Mrs. Zhou has nothing to do during his lifetime, but he has never married a concubine, and after his wife died, he did not renew the string. ”

"And what is the name of his dead lady?" I still think that the shopkeeper is wrong.

The shopkeeper thought for a long time and said, "What's it called?" I don't know the name, but it seems to be surnamed Su, and the original family is the official family in Beijing. ”

Sue? That's really right, Mingyue said that Lu Jingcheng's aunt is called Su Jinyu.

"Two, who is Master Zhou?" The shopkeeper looked at me and Long Xuanling curiously.

"Well, distant relatives." I said something casually, and the uneasiness in my heart intensified.

"Oh, then you said it earlier, we'll give you a discount on the house price." The shopkeeper immediately said with a smile.

It seems that this week's Song Zhai is very good and charitable, and it is very famous here.

"No need." I walked out of the store.

Long Xuanling saw me with a solemn face, knowing that I was worried about Yun He and Mingyue, so he pulled me and walked towards the Zhou family's mansion.

"Long Xuanling?" I looked up at him gratefully.

"If you don't take a look, I'm afraid that you will never feel at ease, and I don't want you to worry about them every day." Long Xuanling looked at me dotingly and said.

"Hmm." I nodded, and my steps became extremely fast.

When I arrived at the door of the Zhou family's house, the one standing was still the servant who guarded the door yesterday.

When he saw me and Long Xuanling, he recognized us at a glance and leaned over us slightly.

"We want to meet your master." Long Xuanling said to the servant.

When the servant heard this, he invited us in.

This Zhou's mansion, although it can't be compared with the Marshal's Mansion, but it is also elegant, the servant took us to the main hall to sit down, and went to invite Zhou Songzhai to come over.

After Long Xuanling and I sat down, a maid came to serve tea, and I didn't want to drink tea, just looked around the hall.

The furnishings here are decent, I don't know if it's because those bandits came half a month ago, the shelves are empty.

It wasn't long before I heard footsteps coming from outside the hall, and I immediately looked out of the threshold.

As a result, we saw a slender and thin man in a navy blue robe walking towards us.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to sort out some accounts, so I'll keep you two waiting." When he entered the hall, he apologized very politely to me and Long Xuanling.

This week Song Zhai is not quite the same as I imagined, because he is Lu Jingcheng's uncle, and I think he should be an old man, but now the man standing in front of me looks very young.

Although he has a mustache, there is no wrinkle on his face, that is, there is a kind of tiredness between his eyebrows.

"Master Zhou, I am Yunhe's sister, I am about to leave Yaozhou, I want to come and see her before leaving." I got up and said to Zhou Songzhai.

When Zhou Songzhai heard this, he hurriedly motioned for me to sit down, and called me one by one, and I was really a little awkward to listen.

"Master Zhou, you still call me Anzhi." I spoke.

Zhou Songzhai compromised and called me Miss Luo, knowing that I wanted to see Yunhe, he didn't stop him, and immediately asked the maid to invite Yunhe over.

Seeing him so happy and polite, my original hanging heart gradually relaxed.

Moreover, soon Yun He and Mingyue came over together.

Yun He has changed into a water-blue skirt gown, her hair is also combed extremely good-looking, a few delicate hairpins are inserted on her head, and her makeup is just right, and she looks much better than before.

She first bowed to Zhou Songzhai, called out to her uncle, and then looked at me again.

"Yunhe, your sister came to see you, you can have a good chat with her, uncle will let people prepare meals, and the two of you will eat here at noon." Zhou Songzhai got up and went to the kitchen to make arrangements.

There were only a few of us left in the hall, and I hurriedly walked in front of Yun He: "You guys, how is it?" ”

"What how? You also saw this week, master, it was good to us, not only prepared a big house for me to live in, but the food was no worse than that of the marshal's mansion. Yun He was very satisfied.

Mingyue also nodded at me: "Auntie is right, Master Zhou is very good, food and accommodation are the best arrangements, and yesterday we told him about the Marshal's Mansion, and Master Zhou immediately asked people to prepare the spiritual tablets for the Dashuai and the old lady to pay tribute to them." ”

"Really?" After listening to it, I also felt that this week's master was neat and crisp.

"By the way, you Mrs. Zhou?" I originally wanted to ask if Mingyue was wrong about Mrs. Zhou's letter to Mrs. Lu, after all, everyone has been dead for five years, so could the letter be written by Mr. Zhou.

As a result, when Mingyue heard me mention Mrs. Zhou, she immediately said: "Mrs. Zhou is not in good health and has been lying on the sickbed for a long time, but Mr. Zhou told us yesterday, let us live in peace, Aunt Luo is Lu Dashuai's wife and concubine, and that is also their family." ”

"Have you met Mrs. Zhou?" I frowned and looked at Mingyue in surprise.

I thought to myself, what's going on? Didn't the innkeeper say that Zhou Songzhai's wife had died five years ago? Moreover, he can still tell Mrs. Zhou's surname and the time of her death, so it shouldn't be a mistake.

"That's right, Mrs. Zhou hasn't changed much when she was in Beijing, but her complexion is a little worse." Mingyue said, as if she was still a little worried about Mrs. Zhou.

Cold sweat broke out on my back, Mingyue grew up in the Lu family, and she had seen Mrs. Zhou a long time ago, so she shouldn't recognize the wrong person, what is going on?
