Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent! Chapter 1291: 1291: Not Happy

Chapter 1291: Chapter 1291: Not Happy

Countess’s hat shop, Zhulan walked into the store, which was crowded with custors who were officials’ families. So were holding small hats and looking in mirrors, others selecting accessories.

Su Xuan pointed at the accessories, “Mom, shall we go take a look?”

Zhulan also liked the accessories, each distinctly different from those typical in the capital. She picked up a gemstone-sized hat accessory, “You can’t deny they’re quite creatively designed.”

She liked it at first sight, but regretted that she was too old to wear it.

Su Xuan loved these new products too, “Yes, these were all designed by the Countess herself.”

Zhulan, “Personally designed?”

Su Xuan nodded, “Yes, I heard from her. She did a lot of preparation to open this shop; she told she visited every jewelry store in the capital.”

Zhulan looked at each accessory, only one of each kind, “Was this her idea too?”

Su Xuan smiled, “Yes, she said she is a woman and won want uniqueness. So, you see, whether it’s hats or accessories in her shop, none are exactly the sa, each has so differences.”

Zhulan looked towards the hat rack, truly, “She has a good business sense, especially in making money from won.”

Su Xuan agreed, “Every ti I see her, she’s all smiles – it’s clear that it’s easy to make money from won.”

Zhulan picked a few accessories and said softly to Yu Lu and Yu Yi, “Do you two have any favorites? Granny will buy whichever you like.”

Yu Lu pointed at her purse, “Granny, I have Silver Coin.”

Yu Yi also hurriedly took out her purse, “I do too.”

Yu Yi and her sister, living in the capital, received a monthly allowance and occasional money from their parents. Although she was younger than her sister Yu Lu, she might be the wealthiest among the sisters.

Zhulan chuckled, “This ti, granny will treat you, and I still have to pick a few for Yushuang.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Lu didn’t insist further, and started choosing what she liked with her sister, looking at clearly priced items, which didn’t require the shop assistant’s introduction. Yu Lu really liked this way of selling, although the prices were indeed steep.

Zhulan had a good eye and knew her granddaughters’ tastes well, quickly selecting gemstone accessories for Yushuang and the others.

A quarrel was heard nearby; Zhulan thought to herself, this was the downside of uniqueness, it could easily lead to disputes.

Su Xuan had already looked over and whispered, “It’s the Liufeng family’s eldest daughter-in-law and a young girl by her side. The dispute involves this girl and another girl.”

Zhulan turned her head to look—one of the girls looked familiar, and the other well-known, whose sister was a hot topic for this sumr’s entrance into the harem.

Su Xuan recognized them all, “The girl beside the Liufeng family’s eldest daughter-in-law is Earl Wang’s legitimate second daughter.”

Zhulan uttered, “The one who just got engaged to Top scorer Qiu Yan.”

“Yes, that’s her.”

There are really too many young ladies in the capital; perhaps Zhulan had seen her sowhere before, which caused the familiarity.

Zhulan muttered softly, “This Liufeng family really picks daughters-in-law based on good background!”

Su Xuan didn’t like the Liufeng family; she had already refused them, but they were still persistently interested in her daughter.

The dispute soon subsided. They were all reputable people, and soon everyone left.

Zhulan had also paid the bill and went to a restaurant for a al. When leaving for ho, it was quite a coincidence to encounter Mingyun and Liufeng on the street.

Zhulan looked at her eldest grandson and future grandson-in-law, and in the blink of an eye, both boys had grown up.

Ti passed quickly, and the day of the diplomatic mission arrived. Zhulan did not go to the entrance of the capital to see them off. She felt she was getting old and could no longer bear such scenes; her son’s departure for several years also made her reluctant to let go.

People from the second wife’s house all went to see them off. Even the usually indolent Yu Wen followed, showing how much Chang Yi was favored by the children at ho.

At ho, Chang Yi was the most approachable to the children, genuinely loving his nephews and nieces. With his generous nature, it was no wonder he was the children’s favorite.

At the entrance of the capital, Zhao looked at the departing troops, her handkerchief already soaked. Last night, in order to comfort her husband and give him peace of mind for his mission, she did not cry but reassured her husband that she and the children would be fine.

Now that her husband had left, her heart went with him, and her tears couldn’t stop, eventually even managing to hold back her sobs.

Zhao’s weeping triggered Yushuang and Yu Die to cry too. Even Ming Rui’s eyes were moist.

At the mont of departure, all the hidden feelings of reluctance burst forth.

Children from other houses sat in different carriages, but could still hear the sounds from the second wife’s carriage.

Yu Yi held a handkerchief, “I hate farewells.”

Yu Wen, rarely like a normal child, also had reddened eyes, “ too.”

Yu Lu patted her two sisters’ heads, “So in the future, we should be more considerate towards Yu Die.”

Yu Wen look up, “Second sister, are you joking?”

Yu Die didn’t need them to be considerate; Sister Yu Die was the wildest.

Yu Lu was at a loss for words, okay, Yu Die’s nature indeed didn’t need consideration.

At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren struggled to get his work done. Over the years, from the initial unfamiliar responsibilities to truly developing affection, he had co to view the elder Zhou and others as his own sons. With Chang Yi’s departure, he felt empty.

Qiu Yan comnted, “I see you performing your duties as usual these days. I thought you wouldn’t be reluctant!”

Zhou Shuren glanced at him, “I’m also a father. Being the main support of the family, if I show my reluctance, how can I hold up the household?”

Well, patting himself on the back.

Qiu Yan responded, “A few years will pass quickly; it will be over in the blink of an eye.”

Zhou Shuren remained silent, “Honestly, sir, try blinking for .”

Even if ti passes quickly, it can’t be as fast as a blink of an eye.

Qiu Yan, originally intending to chat with Zhou Shuren, now lost interest, “I still have duties to attend to. I’ll leave first.”

Zhou Shuren stopped Qiu Yan, “By the way, another Deputy Minister has been confird.”

“Who?”

Zhou Shuren said, “Lord Wang.”

Qiu Yan, not a fool knowing only a few could beco Deputy Ministers, was surprised upon hearing the surna Wang, “Ah, his household has been quite lively recently, his daughter has entered the palace, cough cough.”

Zhou Shuren waved his hand, “I just wanted to inform you in advance so you could be prepared. Go on with your duties.”

As Qiu Yan left, realizing the implications, it seed that Miss Wang’s entry into the palace was a done deal. Tsk tsk, this news was indeed significant, showcasing Zhou Shuren’s trust from the Emperor.

Zhou Shuren was unhappy about this news. Yes, unhappy. If soone without ties to the harem had co, he might have looked forward to leaving the position of Minister of Revenue. Now, with soone connected, it ant this Lord Wang wouldn’t last long.
