Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Not long after Minglan left, Shen Congxing returned home.

The first thing he did when he got home was to visit Madam Zou.

Since moving into the side courtyard, Madam Zou always refused to meet him on the grounds of being unwell. At first, Shen Congxing turned back to his room helplessly, but as time went on, he missed her so much that in order to see her, he would lie and say he was someone else, and let the guards or maids around him knock on the door. When the door was opened, he would rush in without thinking twice, which was really painstaking.

The maidservants of Madam Zou were tricked into thinking carefully and would carefully identify who was coming in. If Minglan had not been born in person, she would have been stopped outside the door and questioned for a long time.

At this moment, seeing that the door opened when he knocked, Shen Congxing was not happy at all, but worried. He asked anxiously: "What...what happened? Is she not well?"

Little Zou followed the prince's uncle and hurried forward when she saw this: "Oh, could it be that Madam Gu was talking to you today and made you tired?"

The maid stopped her and said, "Madam said that we only want to see the general."

Little Zou: "I'm her sister! How dare you, a bitch, stop me?"

The maid did not argue with her, repeating word for word: "Madam said, only see the general."

When dealing with the Zou family, Uncle Shen always followed the opinions of the eldest lady Zou. Upon hearing this, he said to the youngest lady Zou, "I haven't eaten yet. I'm very hungry. Go to the kitchen and help me see if there is smoked duck for dinner. If not, please make one for me. I'm craving for it."

Little Zou said anxiously: "Just let the servants make the smoked duck. Big sister's condition is serious. Let me go in and see..."

Uncle Shen looked at her steadily and said, "Go."

With just one word, the pressure of the general who was in control of life and death immediately spread. Little Zou stopped talking halfway and opened her mouth, not daring to make another sound.

Uncle Shen stepped into the courtyard, and the maid quickly closed the door. Little Zou was blocked outside the door and stamped her feet in anger: "You are dying and you still don't stop! Humph, I'm going to complain to my mother!"

Uncle Shen walked in quickly and saw that Madam Zou was in good spirits. He said happily, "You look more rosy today? Are you getting better?!"

Mrs. Zou: "Minglan just left. She talked to me for a long time and brought me some snacks she made herself. This child is really good. Her words can touch people's hearts."

"Good, good, good! My brother's wife is really good!" Uncle Shen was delighted. "In that case, why don't I send a letter to Madam Gu in the name of the eldest lady, and ask her to come to your house every day to talk to you, okay?"

Mrs. Zou shook her head and smiled, "There are still a lot of things going on at home. Gu Erlang left for Jiangning today, and Minglan has to take care of the elderly, children and mothers-in-law in Ningyuan Marquis's mansion. How can I bother her again? Besides, if we can deal with our own family affairs properly, my worries will be mostly relieved..."

Uncle Shen thought that Madam Zou was going to tell him about marrying Madam Zou, so he whispered, "I... I will do whatever Madam Zou wants me to do..."

Mrs. Zou said: "Sir, I was confused before and made you feel awkward. Please don't be angry with me."

Uncle Shen: "What are you talking about? I have never been angry with you! It's just... hey, I... you are still fine, I really don't have the mind to think about marrying someone else at this moment..."

Mrs. Zou: "That's exactly what I'm talking about. I was confused before, and I only wanted my fourth sister to come home to serve you, but I didn't think about the consequences of doing so... Now, I've figured it out, sir, please help me find a good husband for my fourth sister, and send her away in a few days!"

Uncle Shen was surprised and asked, "What? You won't let your sister enter our house?"

Mrs. Zou nodded and said, "Minglan is right. If we let the fourth sister enter the mansion, it will not only make the master feel awkward, but also hinder the future of the Zou family and several children. Instead of doing this, it is better to find a good husband for the fourth sister and give the Zou family more help!"

He hadn't gotten around to the point in the first few sentences, but he immediately understood the idea of ​​adding more support to the Zou family: "Yes, yes! If we can find a powerful marriage for Fourth Sister, it will be good for the Zou family and our family!"

Mrs. Zou told Uncle Shen all of Minglan's previous analysis in detail. After hearing this, Uncle Shen was impressed and said, "My sister-in-law is indeed a girl taught by Lord Yongyi. Her thoughts are so meticulous and thorough!" He called Minglan that because of his brotherhood with Gu Tingye. Since Yuzhou, the two of them had been through life and death several times and had long been as close as brothers. Therefore, when discussing seniority, they never followed the Shen family's rules, but only addressed each other as peers, focusing on discussing each other. Minglan also never called him uncle, but only respectfully called him "Uncle".

Mrs. Zou: "If it weren't for this child reminding me, I would have almost ruined my whole family. Fortunately, it's not too late now. Sir, I'll leave the matter of finding a husband for my fourth sister to you!"

Uncle Shen: "What are you talking about, Madam? Your sister is my sister. Isn't it my job to find a husband for her? Besides, the emperor is really in need of people now. If I tell the emperor and the queen about my fourth sister's marriage, they will definitely be happy to help!"

The couple had not seen each other for a long time. As they were chatting, it was past meal time. Little Mrs. Zou did not wait for her brother-in-law, but for Old Madam Zou.

She cried, "Mother! For some reason, my elder sister suddenly allowed my brother-in-law to come into the yard. The two of them have been chatting until now, and they haven't even eaten yet!"

Madam Zou loved her little daughter the most. She comforted her by saying, "Don't cry. Your face will be ugly if you cry. Your sister must have asked your brother-in-law to marry you as soon as possible. She is afraid that you will be shy, so she won't let you into the house."

When the eldest daughter Zou was born, the Zou family had not yet prospered. She had suffered a lot with her parents when she was young, and was the most sensible and obedient among the children of the Zou family. Old Madam Zou knew this daughter very well and knew that she could endure and sacrifice for the Zou family, so she dared to ask her to marry Zou Si to her husband while she was sick.

Now that she heard that the couple had met, the old lady did not think that Miss Zou was going to disobey her. She felt that she had a firm grasp on her eldest daughter's thoughts and ideas.

Zou Si was brought up in pampered circumstances. Although she felt that her elder sister would definitely give up her brother-in-law, she had no confidence in her own charm and was afraid that she would not be able to sit on the position of mistress of the general's mansion.

So she continued to cry, "Mother, look at what time it is now? Just now my brother-in-law told me that he was hungry and wanted to eat smoked duck. Now the smoked duck is ready, but where is he? He is still in my elder sister's yard! If he just wanted to talk about marrying me, he could finish the conversation in a few words. Why did he wait until now?"

Madam Zou: "I'll go take a look, don't worry."

The mother and daughter came to the gate of the courtyard and met Uncle Shen's guards. They asked, "Are you still inside?"

The guard nodded and said, "The general is in a good mood today. He has asked someone to prepare wine and food in the courtyard. He is eating with his wife now. The old lady and the fourth lady should go back first."

Madam Zou frowned when she heard this. Fourth Miss Zou became even more anxious. She pulled her mother's sleeve and jumped up and down, saying, "Mother, listen! They've eaten all this!"

Madam Zou held her hand and said to the guard, "I have something important to discuss with my son-in-law. Please go in and report it immediately."

Guard: "The general said that he will not see any guests tonight."

Madam Zou: "You bastard! I am his mother-in-law, how can I be a stranger?"

Guard: "I am working for the general and I only follow his orders. If the general says he won't see you, I can't let you in even if you are a mouse."

When Old Madam Zou was compared to a rat, she went crazy on the spot.

Zou Si tiptoed forward and was about to slap the guard, but the guard didn't even move his feet, he just slightly turned sideways and dodged.
