Yuezhou City is the foundation of the Zhou family. As the new year approaches, the Zhou family has a lot of work, so they leave Hu County and live back in Yuezhou City.

Zhou Qiong originally wanted to stay in Hu County, so it would only take less than half an hour for him to rush to the Tang family, which would be very convenient if he wanted to see her.

However, there were no men in their family, and the elders in the clan needed Mrs. Mo to entertain them every day. Zhou Qiong felt sorry for her grandmother and stayed in Yuezhou City.

The Zhou Shi clan has deep roots in Yuezhou City, and the clan has also opened schools and martial arts halls for the younger generations. Zhou Qiong's clan started to join the army with his grandfather, and after several generations of hard work, he was finally made a marquis and became the leader of the clan. The most promising one.

As the descendants of the Zhenxihou Mansion, the Zhou clan were originally proud, but they succeeded and failed. When the Zhenxihou Mansion was in glory, they followed them to gain glory. When the Zhenxihou Mansion became lonely, they were also ostracized.

In recent years, except for joining the army, which has not been affected too much, most of the Zhou family members have been sent to remote places to take scientific examinations and serve as officials.

The wife of Mr. Zhen San, whose surname is Wang, came to our door today and was crying about this matter.

"Brothers and sisters, you don't know that my grandson studied hard for sixteen years in Hanchuang. He didn't want to win the second grade and be sent to Dianzhou as a small county magistrate. Now that the three-year scientific examination has been completed, can you Think of a way?"

"If it weren't for the fact that the southern part of Dianzhou borders the southern border, it's really not peaceful. I wouldn't want to come here to beg you during the Chinese New Year. Please think of a way. Even if you lose your pillar of support, there is still a noble concubine in the palace. We are all named Zhou. Can you please Empress..."

"Sister-in-law Zhen San, be careful what you say!" Mrs. Mo was still trying to persuade her, but when she saw that she was getting more and more outrageous, she quickly cut her words off.

"How can the concubines of the harem be allowed to interfere in the affairs of the imperial court?"

"Besides, sister-in-law, don't you know that no matter how noble a concubine is, how can she be as good as the queen in the palace?"

Madam Wang's expression was stern, "...after all, she was once the original wife, but she couldn't do anything with her..."

Mrs. Mo looked at her deeply and said, "Sister-in-law Zhen, listen to my advice. Isn't it wise to stay away from Ruidu to protect yourself?"

If she is really transferred to a prosperous place or returns to Ruidu, just because her grandson's surname is Zhou, she will definitely not end well.

"But...as a grandmother, I really feel sorry for my younger siblings..."

Mrs. Wang looked at Mrs. Mo's dejected face and did not dare to continue talking.

"Sister-in-law Zhen San, it's okay not to mention this matter. If you really want to make plans for your grandson in the future, you can ask the clan leader first."

Over the years, the Zhenxihou Mansion has become worse and worse. Apart from normal ceremonial exchanges, the clan has no extra requirements. I think the clan leader is a sensible person.

After all, Mrs. Mo had been on the battlefield with the old Marquis. The way she spoke in such a straight face and in a deep voice was really a bit bluffing.

After all, Mrs. Wang didn't dare to mention her grandson's matter, so she mentioned another matter.

"In my opinion, the prince is getting older. Now not only the Zhenxihou Mansion is counting on him, but also the entire Zhou family is counting on him. You have to be careful when choosing this granddaughter-in-law. My granddaughter-in-law has a younger sister. They are also from this scholarly family in Yuezhou City. They are not only well-educated and sensible, but they are also beautiful and pretty. I have brought you here too, and they are waiting in the flower hall. Why don't you call me in to say hello to you?"

Mrs. Mo shook her head, "I already have a candidate in mind, so I won't delay other good girls."

Mrs. Wang stood up and said, "This prince's engagement is a big deal, why haven't I heard you mention it?"

She looked at Mrs. Mo's expression, and secretly wondered if she had deliberately made an excuse to frustrate her?

If Zhou Qiong is really engaged, the clan will not only receive the news immediately, but the clan leader may even be informed of the woman's horoscope. It is impossible that there will be no news at all.

Mrs. Mo smiled and said, "It hasn't been officially decided yet, it will take a while."

"I wonder whose daughter she is?"

"Those who know the basics of the matter will inform the clan after the decision is made."

"Youdao is the daughter of a family, and the same goes for this good man. Where is the identity of the prince, you can't just find someone, and since it hasn't been decided yet, it's not a sure thing. You should first take a look at my granddaughter-in-law's sister. Her family is not a small family. Not only are there many scholars in the family, but there are also many officials in Ruidu." Mrs. Wang urged again.

Mrs. Mo suppressed a smile and said nothing.

Mrs. Wang looked unhappy.

She couldn't accomplish any of the two things today.

Especially for this second thing, it doesn't mean that she must succeed in pulling the strings. After all, the grandson's wife's family background is so great that her sister can hardly be worthy of the son-in-law.

But if her in-laws expressed this intention, she would have to do something, right?

At least she brought someone to meet Mrs. Mo, and showed off her kinship in front of others. As for whether it was successful or not, she had tried her best.

But Mrs. Mo refused to see anyone directly, which was too disrespectful to her.

Your daughter has been robbed of her position as queen, why are you still so arrogant?

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Grandma Zhang stepped forward and said: "Mrs. Wang, let's have a cup of tea and some snacks. The prince just sent off to the sixth uncle, and I have to greet you when he comes back. This snack is for the old lady. It’s specially made for people to buy, it tastes good.”

Mrs. Wang's expression was still unconcerned, but the pastry on the table was indeed fragrant. She picked up a small piece of hydrangea pastry and tasted it. Her expression softened again. She was about to ask the little girl in the flower hall to come in and have a taste. Madam Zhang Grandma already had a look in her eyes and said: "The guests you brought will also be served a portion, and you will never neglect it."

Mrs. Wang took a deep breath and chewed the cake in her mouth.

She won't be able to come back to Zhou's house next time. Her grandson has been so embarrassed and she's so disrespectful.

Mrs. Mo lowered her eyes, picked up the tea cup, and took a sip.

She knew very well what the other person was thinking.

But the Zhenxihou Mansion didn't owe the Zhou clan anything.

When they gained power in the past, they enjoyed the glory together. Now that the Marquis Mansion has no authority in the court, they naturally have to be ostracized.

Heaven reincarnates, no need to feel guilty.

This is what the old man told her before he left. He only asked her to take good care of his daughter-in-law and grandson, and not to interfere in the affairs of the clan. If someone from the clan came to make irresponsible remarks, she did not need to pay attention to it.

As long as she is happy every day, he will feel comfortable watching her underground.

Madam Mo felt a little lower when she thought of the old man dragging his sick body and telling her one thing after another.

"Meow."

A creamy yellow cat rubbed against her feet and looked up at her, staring blankly at her with its clear cat eyes.

She reached out and lifted the cat onto her lap, and gently scratched the cat's belly.

"Hu'er seems to have gained some weight," she said.

Grandma Zhang smiled and said, "It's becoming more and more edible. Fortunately, Miss Tang will send special dried fish every few days."

Mrs. Mo laughed.

When she thought of Yunling, she felt relieved.

At this time, there was a noise outside.
