Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent! Chapter 276 - 276 276 Blessedness1

276: Chapter 276 Blessedness_1 276: Chapter 276 Blessedness_1 Zhulan and Zhou Shuren were talking in the room, outside, Chang Zhi had finished expressing how impressive Dad was, while Chang Lian had returned to his room.

He needed to calculate the value of the antiques Dad had won in silver coins.

At the sa ti, he was speechless about his brother-in-law.

You told us how many antiques you won already, why couldn’t you just say how much silver they sold for?

On the way back, he wanted to ask Dad several tis, but he didn’t dare to, so he decided to estimate on his own.

Anyway, a thousand taels of silver were guaranteed.

Why didn’t he follow Dad?

No, he couldn’t give up; he had to learn!

After Chang Zhi had his fill sharing the story, he went back to the front yard to continue reading and had no idea the impact he had brought to his eldest brother, second brother, and eldest brother-in-law.

The three of them returned to their rooms in a daze.

Jiang Sheng saw his wife folding clothes and sat down beside her, “Xue i.”

Xue i put away the clothes, “Look at you, all distracted.

What’s the matter?”

Jiang Sheng repeated Chang Zhi’s words and finally summarized with emotion, “Father-in-law really has great skills.”

Xue i thought it was sothing serious.

She had heard about it from her mother and even thought it was supposed to be a secret.

But today, everyone at ho knew about it, “Yes, Dad indeed has great skills.”

Jiang Sheng was silent for a mont, “How likely do you think it is that Jiang Zhu will be left behind?”

Xue i, “…..”

She could only hope that her parents would think more about Jiang Zhu and Jiang Miu.

Her husband actually wanted to leave his son to learn from Dad, which showed how highly her husband regarded Dad.

Jiang Sheng regretted his words as soon as he spoke.

Wasn’t he being greedy?

His father-in-law helped him, and yet he wanted his father-in-law to teach his son, “Forget I said anything.

I was just being foolish.

Let’s go back tomorrow.

It’s not right to always bother Aunt Zheng to help look after our ho.”

Xue i understood Jiang Sheng; anyone would want to learn father’s skills.

It was just unfortunate that Jiang Zhu bore the Jiang surna and not Zhou.

It was fine for Zhou descendants to learn, but whether Jiang descendants could depended entirely on Dad’s wishes, “We should wait a few more days.

Dad and Mom are going to the capital, and we’ll see them off.”

Jiang Sheng, “…..

All right.”

His father-in-law was moving further away, and who knew—they might have to go to the capital to pay a visit in the future!

In the main house, Lady Li raised her voice after hearing the news, “Head of the family, how much silver was that?”

Zhou Dad could not figure it out either; he did not recognize antiques, “Surely a lot.”

Lady Li counted on her fingers, but she also did not figure it out.

Nevertheless, it was true that the Zhou family had silver, and quite a bit of it at that, “Head of the family, we must definitely listen to Dad and Mom.

If we make Dad unhappy and he doesn’t allow Mingyun to learn these skills, that would be terrible.”

Zhou Dad wanted to say that even if Dad taught his skills, not everyone could learn them—as it depended on one’s talent.

Seeing how Chang Lian’s face was dark, he knew that Chang Lian did not have the talent for this.

He suddenly felt balanced; neither he nor his younger brother had the talent for studying.

Maybe their talent lay in this area, and the thought excited him.

In the second wife’s quarters, Zhou Dad’s younger brother thought of talent, too, and planned to learn from Dad.

Unfortunately, during dinner, before Zhou Dad and his younger brother could bring it up, Zhou Shuren dropped the news first, “Your mother and I, we will follow the convoy to the capital three days from now.

While we are both away, you all need to work together to guard the ho.

Did you hear ?”

Chang Zhi and Chang Lian had known since they were at the Jiang Residence that Dad and Mom were going to the capital.

Preoccupied with praising Dad’s skills after coming back, they forgot to ntion the trip to the capital.

Their hearts were set on it—the capital!

But it was a pity they couldn’t follow along, and they were quite dejected.

Zhou Eldest and Zhou Second were dumbstruck, with Zhou Eldest hastily asking, “Dad, what are you and Mom going to do in the capital?”

This trip seed quite far away, and it made him anxious.

Zhou Shuren coughed once, he had thought it through long ago.

Rather than having his sons guess how much silver he held, it was better to turn it all into tangible assets, “Dad is going to the capital early to look around.

If there’s a suitable residence, I’ll purchase one.

In the future, whether it’s for my participation in the imperial examinations or for Chang Zhi and Chang Lian, we will have a place to stay.”

Zhou Second was sharp, “Dad, we’re worried about you and Mom heading there alone.

Dad, I’m not the eldest.

It’s fine if I’m not ho.

Why don’t you let go with you to take care of you and Mom?”

Zhou Eldest, “…..”

He also wanted to go, but with Dad absent, as the eldest son he had to stay and watch over the ho.

How did he end up the eldest son!

Zhou Shuren had barely got rid of the troubleso matter, and he’d be out of his mind to bring along a third wheel.

He had regretted bringing Xue Han along the first ti he left ho, “No need, we are traveling with a caravan arranged by Mr.

Jiang.

You don’t have anything to worry about.

Chang Yi, you’re the most cunning and the most destructive.

Help your elder brother out more at ho.

Dad trusts you.”

Zhou Second, “……”

So Dad was dissatisfied with him, exposing all his flaws.

He got it, Dad found him to be an annoyance!

Jiang Sheng, “…..”

This stay with his father-in-law had upended many of his impressions!

Upon concluding talks with the n at the table, Zhulan addressed her daughters-in-law, “With my absence, I’ll leave the household in the hands of you three.

Lady Li and Lady Zhao will manage as usual, and Lady Dong will be responsible for assisting your eldest sister-in-law in receiving female guests.

Lady Dong, I’m most confident in you.”

Lady Li was still not capable of handling things on her own, especially in Pingzhou City.

Lady Zhao was insightful enough, but she hadn’t seen as much as Lady Dong had.

With Lady Dong there to assist Lady Li, Zhulan could be more at ease.

Lady Dong actually quite yearned to be the steward.

It wasn’t the prospect of earning so silver that drew her to the role; she simply enjoyed the feeling it gave her.

Unfortunately, she was too young on the one hand, and, on the other, even if her eldest sister-in-law was inexperienced with household managent, their mother would favor her and would never let Lady Dong overstep her, nor could she overshadow her second sister-in-law.

Lady Dong swallowed her dissatisfaction and said, “Mother, rest assured, I will support the eldest sister-in-law well.”

Zhulan nodded, “Mother trusts you.”

Lady Dong felt depressed inside; she wanted her mother-in-law to see her with new eyes, but alas, her chance was not given.

Xue Han sat next to her third sister-in-law, who squeezed her chopsticks hard.

She noticed it and thought to herself, this was what mother had said.

Since her third brother had beco a Scholar, the balance at ho was lost.

Her third sister-in-law was Mr.

Guan’s daughter, with Mr.

Jiang as a brother-in-law, her third sister-in-law’s pride had grown and she had a stronger foundation to show off.

Xue Han admired her mother.

If her third brother hadn’t beco a Scholar, mother would have considered today’s situation.

Looking at her eldest and second brothers, it was true, they had nothing impressive to show, no…

her eldest brother had a capable son, that was his foundation.

As for her second brother, aside from having a wealthy Jiang family as in-laws and so ties with the Wu family, he lacked other strengths.

Until Wu Ming rose in prominence, her second brother would remain the weakest in the family.

As for her fourth brother, she always felt that among the family, she and her fourth brother had the best fortune.

Her fourth brother had a smooth journey, the youngest Scholar of Pingzhou City admitted to study with a distinguished teacher, with the future guidance of a ntor, and the protection of their father and third brother.

He was truly fortunate.

Her fate was good too.

As the youngest daughter in the family, her parents doted on her more.

Add to that a fiancé with potential, her childhood sweetheart with whom she shared deep affections.

In the future, with the protection of her father and brothers, and a deeply affectionate husband, she was the most blessed one.

After dinner, Zhulan didn’t bother with Lady Dong’s hesitations.

She wouldn’t allow Lady Dong to interfere too much; breaking the household’s balance was not permissible as it would lead to more conflicts.

Zhulan thought to herself, Lady Dong was still too young.

If she were just two or three years older, she certainly wouldn’t be so impatient.
