Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent! Chapter 1274: 1274: Babe Son-in-Law

Chapter 1274: Chapter 1274: Babe Son-in-Law

The Zhou family has been moving storage boxes to their new residence for several days, finally finishing the move, Zhulan personally went to the new house, which bore the sign of the Count Residence at its gate.

On the other hand, the residence of her fourth uncle has already moved in ahead, with both families moving on separate days.

This ti, being closer to Rong Enqing, Zhulan and Su Xuan both visited, but didn’t stay long before they headed to Marquis Rong’s Residence.

Rong Enqing’s twin daughters had never had their one-month or hundred-day ceremonies due to one of them nearly succumbing to infant mortality, though fortunately she survived, and Zhulan had visited once during that period.

After seeing them, Zhulan felt a complex mix of emotions; in her own ho, there was no child mortality, and it was one thing to hear about it from other residences, but interacting in person brought a different set of emotions.

Now that the children were better, Zhulan dared to visit again.

Today, coincidentally, Yao Xin also ca with her child. After the extermination of the Yao clan, the distance between the surviving sisters faded. During Yao Yao’s inconvenient pregnancy, Yao Xin would visit Yao Yao’s biological brother, gradually taking more interest in him with each visit.

Upon arriving, Zhulan saw each sister holding a baby girl and, noticing the children’s lively spirits, her smile deepened, “These children have gained quite so weight.”

In Yao Yao’s arms was the girl who almost didn’t make it, her lips curling into a smile, “Yes, she’s been eating a lot these days, changing every day.”

Zhulan didn’t attempt to hold the children, knowing how fragile the little girls were, still without their formal nas, only having their nicknas, Peaceful.

Yao Yao apologetically said, “With your family and Fourth Grandpa moving, I should have helped. I really couldn’t manage to leave.”

Zhulan thought to herself, since the Fourth Uncle still didn’t want to see Yao Yao much, it pleased him that Yao Yao didn’t help, “There are many people in the Zhou family, we can manage; you taking care of your health is most important.”

Yao Yao smiled, “Mm.”

Zhulan and Su Xuan didn’t stay long before leaving. On the carriage ride ho, Su Xuan reflected, “These two sisters seem at ease. The life of Yao Zheyu, who survived like them, isn’t going smoothly.”

Zhulan turned her head, “You’ve t him?”

Su Xuan nodded, “I t Shen Yile. How should I put it? We are about the sa age, but standing together, Shen Yile looks much older than .”

She paused, then continued, “I rember before Shen Yile got married, she loved wearing bright colors. Now, her clothes are rarely bright, and I heard that her sisters-in-law are not welcoming her back.”

Zhulan hadn’t paid attention to Yao Zheyu since the palace upheaval, until Zhou Shuren ca ho, and she specifically asked him.

Zhou Shuren also paused, “I haven’t been following him either. Still, he cannot leave the capital and his story has spread throughout the capital. You can guess, even in the Ministry of War, he is completely sidelined, managing only trivial jobs.”

At this point in life, it all cos down to personal mindset. If the mindset is right, Yao Zheyu’s descendants might still have a future; if not, then everything is truly over.

Zhulan was just making conversation, without a deeper aning, what she really wanted to ntion was, “Today, the palace sent so more tonics, it’s been several days in a row, haven’t you figured out why?”

Zhou Shuren, “…I really don’t know.”

He also felt frustrated; he was in good health, ate well, and slept well, recently not feeling tired at all, yet the palace kept sending tonics.

Even when Zhulan asked her daughter, she didn’t know either.

After a mont of contemplation, Zhou Shuren, “The only possibility I can think of is that maybe the Crown Prince is selecting ntors, and the Emperor is using ?”

Zhulan replied, “But it should be in the na of the Crown Prince that such tonics would be gifted.”

Zhou Shuren shrugged, who knows what the Emperor is thinking, “Anyway, I won’t turn down free gifts. The dicinal supplents from the palace are of the finest quality, and if I can’t consu them all, I just save them.”

Zhulan thought about the ginseng and other valuable dicinal materials she had accumulated herself; they always purchased the good stuff when available, added to the received gifts, her family truly accumulated quite a bit, that’s how major families are built, little by little.

Zhou Shuren said that, but after the morning court, he still pulled Rongchuan aside.

Today, no one ca near Zhou Shuren when this father-in-law was chatting with his son-in-law.

Rongchuan attends the morning court daily, and Father rarely pulls him aside to walk together; it’s mostly officials from The Six Ministries, but today, “Father, is there sothing you wanted to see about?”

Zhou Shuren talked about the recent palace incident of sending him tonics, “Do you know why?”

Rongchuan actually knew, and with a weird expression on his face, Zhou Shuren saw and said, “You actually know?”

Rongchuan cleared his throat, “Well, it’s nothing big. The Crown Prince thought you were working too hard, so he asked the Emperor to send tonics, hoping you could live a long and healthy life.”

Zhou Shuren, “…”

This family really is sothing.

Rongchuan’s lips curved into a smile again, “The Emperor talked a lot to the Crown Prince about you.”

Of course, he had exaggerated quite a bit, but he won’t tell Father that.

Zhou Shuren took a deep breath, “Actually, there are many sheep on the grasslands. You don’t have to cling to just one.”

At this rate, he felt like he was going to beco a national treasure!

Rongchuan burst out laughing, “There may be many sheep, but there are few with talent and wisdom who know when to advance and retreat like you.”

The drive for power, the true heart is too rare.

Zhou Shuren rolled his eyes wildly, pfft, as if there’s any good in becoming an emperor, he snorted and walked away quickly, not even his son-in-law could charm him now.

Rongchuan hurriedly jogged after him, “Father, I am still your beloved son-in-law.”

Zhou Shuren almost tripped, “Your skin is getting thicker by the day, still a beloved son-in-law, I can’t believe you can say that.”

Rongchuan grinned cheekily, having thick skin is essential, who knows after hanging around with those seasoned folks he felt like he could go without a face.

At the Dong family, Dong Zhan watched speechlessly as his mother packed his luggage, “Mom, I want to stay ho until brother Mingyun cos back from Pingzhou City.”

Dong Zhan’s mother, “You don’t understand.”

Dong Zhan thought, he truly did understand. Ever since he returned, he had felt the tension in the family. A few of his well-educated cousins didn’t hide their jealousy towards him.

The only ones truly happy about his return were his father, mother, and older brother. Even grandfather didn’t wish for his return, as it aggravated the family conflicts.

Over the years they were apart, his big brother had matured a lot and even advised him not to push himself too hard, which his old brother wouldn’t have done before.

And those looks from his uncles, they made him very uncomfortable.

And then there was grandfather; Dong Zhan bowed his head, guessing so of his grandfather’s thoughts. Grandfather felt biased and thus wanted him to be truly successful in the future, to take care of his uncles.

Dong Zhan’s mother, “You go stay at your maternal grandfather’s house for a while, mother will accompany you.”

She and her husband had to be wary of other branches of the family as well as grandfather. They didn’t want grandfather to put all the burden on their son. If other branches were good, blood-related help should be natural, but grievances had already been ford. No matter how much you helped, it would not be appreciated but would rather deepen the resentnt, making them feel the compensation was never enough.

So, the son must leave, and if it weren’t abrupt to send him to Pingzhou City, she would prefer sending her son there.
