New widow

"I know what I should do." Song Zhen said softly, Su Qiao had already held her hand: "I don't allow you to restrain yourself."

"Then I can't live under your wings forever, Aunt Kuang." Song Zhen said very reasonably. Su Qiao couldn't help but look at her: "People really need experience. Look, you've only been here for a few months. It’s just different from before.”

"It's been a year since my mother passed away." It's not an exaggeration to say that the experience of this year has been earth-shaking.

Now that you have experienced it, it will naturally be different from before.

Suqiao heard the melancholy in Song Zhen's words and couldn't help but smile and said: "At this age, a girl should be pregnant and thinking about what kind of husband she will marry."

"A man of your dreams?" Song Zhen only smiled faintly: "Su Tongpan is already very good. He comes from a well-known family, is young and handsome, and has a bright future."

He is the ideal husband that every mother in the world would like to choose for their daughter, but Zhou Le is still unwilling to marry Su Du. Suqiao couldn't help but sigh: "Marriage still depends on fate."

"Could it be that a woman's life is really like rapeseed? Wherever it is scattered on the ground, the fate will be determined?" Su Qiao didn't know the answer to Song Zhen's question. She just patted Song Zhen's hand gently. : "I just want you to live this life without any worries."

Song Zhen smiled again and lived her life carefree. This sentence sounds very simple, but it is really difficult to do it.

"Fourth uncle will be leaving soon." Zhou Le only asked this after hearing what Nanny Li said to him. Nanny Li thought Zhou Le was sad and said with relief: "You don't have to worry about it. Come on, Madam will indeed be sad at this moment, but wait

A few years later. "

"I don't take it to heart. I have known for a long time that the relationship is weak." After Zhou Le said this, there was still a sigh in his words. The relationship is weak. This sentence is really easy to say, but my heart is broken.

"Girl, I..." Nanny Li was in a dilemma at this moment. Xia Yun had already smiled: "Sister, why bother? That day, my sister told me that everything in the past has passed. Now, I am a new person. of people.”

"Yes, I'm a new person." After saying that, Zhou Le smiled: "Maybe I can leave the nunnery and go back to celebrate the New Year."

Going back now means going back to Suqiao's place. Xia Yun was stunned for a moment and then smiled. Unknowingly, Suqiao's place has become their home in their hearts, where they can cry and cry as much as they want. Just smile without thinking about anything else.

Nanny Li is a person who will be happy as long as Zhou Le is happy. Seeing Zhou Le become happy, Nanny Li also smiled: "That's right. If the fourth master goes back early, then we can all come from the nunnery." come out."

The original plan to stay in the nunnery for a few months was to prevent the Zhou family from coming for too long. Now, Zhou Juren couldn't wait to return to Beijing for the New Year, and had no intention of taking the coffin back to Beijing. Then Zhou Le Naturally, he could leave the nunnery early and go live with Suqiao.

"Although you are comfortable in this nunnery, it is not as good as at home." Zhou Le's words made Xia Yun and Aunt Li look at each other. Since then, Zhou Le has regarded Suqiao's place as his home, and Aunt Li His expression moved slightly, but he still didn't say anything. If he doesn't have a family, just let Zhou Le go. As long as Zhou Le is doing well, what will happen to Grandma Li?

I don't want to.

Zhou Juren took those boxes and cages back to the city and was very satisfied. Then he remembered that he should inform the gentry in the city. Since it was still during Zhou Le's mourning period, Zhou Juren only ordered people to send messages to the gentry in the city. As for the king Zhou Juren was the first to send the post to the minister.

Wang Shangshu accepted the post, thought about it, and ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair to visit Zhou Juren. This shocked Aunt Du: "Why do you want to visit Zhou Juren? Ordinarily, he is a junior."

"He still has filial piety in his body at the moment." Wang Shangshu said lightly. Although Zhou Le is a junior and a married woman, she can be regarded as dying unmarried at this moment, and Zhou Juren is also suitable. She should wear plain clothes for a few days, so naturally she cannot visit others.

"Then..." Aunt Du was still hesitating. After all, Wang Shangshu didn't have to visit Zhou Juren in person. Wang Shangshu knew what Aunt Du was thinking, and snorted from his nose: "You, you just think too little, I will personally Go and visit, and of course he will listen to what you say.”

Aunt Du then responded: "Then I'll have someone serve you well." Wang Shangshu nodded, and when the sedan arrived, Wang Shangshu got on the sedan and walked to the inn where Zhou Juren was staying.

Zhou Juren was still counting the boxes and cages. Which things in the boxes and cages could be kept and which ones should be sent back? Zhou Juren was still taking a lot of trouble. After all, Zhou Le's dowry list was well known at home. If he took too much If there are too many, people will inevitably see the clues.

"Four Masters, if you are young, just bring a few more things. They are just for the elder sister to add makeup to the younger sister." The housekeeper who came with him knew what Zhou Juren was thinking, so naturally he would do it in every possible way.

Hearing that it was the elder sister who added makeup to his younger sister, Zhou Juren couldn't help but laugh: "What I'm saying is that they were sisters before, but now, if I get a few more things, what does it matter?"

With that said, Zhou Juren took four pieces of gold jewelry, looked at the box containing the silver notes, and sighed: "It's a pity that I can't touch these silver notes."

Naturally, there were orders folded into silver at the Marquis Mansion in Nanyang. The housekeeper wanted to give some more advice, but then he heard the news that Wang Shangshu was here. Zhou Juren was not thinking about these things at this moment. He hurriedly closed the box and went out to meet Wang Shangshu in person.

When Zhou Juren walked out of the inn, Wang Shangshu was getting down from the sedan chair. Zhou Juren hurriedly took a few steps and stepped forward to support Wang Shangshu: "Old Shangshu, I should be visiting you as a junior."

"When your family encounters such a big event, it is only right that I come here." Wang Shangshu said with a smile. Zhou Juren hurriedly supported Wang Shangshu and walked inside. Wang Shangshu also asked a few questions about Mr. Zhou Ge's situation, and listened. Seeing that Zhou Ge was in good health, Wang Shangshu smiled and nodded: "When you left Beijing, you were only seventeen or eighteen years old. You and your father came to see me off, and you were still not talkative. Now you have experienced it. "

"It's a pity that I can't study well. I can't be an official like my eldest and second brothers. I can only do some chores at home." Zhou Juren asked Wang Shangshu to sit down and served tea to Wang Shangshu himself.

Wang Shangshu took the tea and said: "You are also in the capital. If you are in a place like this, it is enough to raise people."

"My father often praises my son for his excellence." Zhou Juren knew the rules of officialdom very clearly. Wang Shangshu knew that the person being praised was his eldest son, so

He waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm over 50, but I'm just such an official, how can I deserve to be praised?"
