Chapter 460: One Family, Two Places

Originally, Liu believed that she was capable of checking the accounts, but when she heard that Gu Erzhu wanted her eldest son to take action, she had no choice but to play deaf and dumb.

No matter what the father's purpose is, after all, he has flesh and blood. For the good of his two sons, brothers should settle accounts clearly to avoid unpleasantness.

dining room.

Ma Shan was quite curious about why her child's father went into the upper room and didn't come out. If there was something that made him not come out, they could talk about it later after they had dinner together.

If you can’t figure it out, ask your mother-in-law.

"Your father was afraid that he couldn't remember the accounts, so he asked Erlang to help him count them first. Don't worry about them, they have food to eat, we just need to eat ourselves.

After eating, go back to your room and rest early. Don’t think you can be careless after completing the two-month confinement period. Taking care of a child is extremely hard and you will have to get up several times at night.

Especially now that it’s cold, it’s not convenient to get up at night. Take a break if you can, and remember to tell me if you need anything. You’ll feel better when your child is older.”

Liu gave a few reminders and said no more.

Every daughter-in-law has her own personality. If she wants Huniu to leave a maid to help at night, Huniu may not be happy about it.

As her mother-in-law, she had already taken her eldest grandson to sleep in the house. If she was asked to take care of the younger grandson at night as well, her son Erlang would be the first one to disagree.

Children are good children.

They are all very filial, but their ideas are too stubborn. For example, Hu Niu refused to allow maids or wives to keep watch in the east wing at night even after her own mother coaxed her.

"Okay, I won't let myself get tired." Ma Shan readily agreed and was just about to ask whether Zhou Banxia would come back early tomorrow.

Zhiming is back.

His father Yu Cai also accompanied Gu Erzhu on the long journey this time. This might be the reason why Gu Wenxuan did not send Jiaxing or Gu Dahai back on horseback to deliver the message.

Seeing that his father was in good spirits, Zhiming did not have time to say much. He went to the upper room to report the message first. After Gu Erzhu listened and asked a few questions, he answered and then went to the dining room.

He also reported to Liu about Gu Erzhu's decision to let him go to the city tomorrow morning to report and not to rush back. Liu also strongly agreed with Gu Erzhu's suggestion.

Since the child's father has returned from a long trip, he will have to visit the Zhao family and Manager Wang in the next two days. After all, they are very concerned about the child's father.

Besides, it would be better to stay here safely than to let the old daughter-in-law rush back and the old son escort her back with confidence and then go to the city early the next morning.

The little one's voice is really loud when he starts crying, so it's better to wait for his father to choose an auspicious day for the move into the new house. It would be better to come back two days before the auspicious day so that San Ya can sleep soundly.

After listening to Zhiming's report, Liu asked about Zhou Banxia's appetite in the past two days. After hearing Zhiming's report about what Zhou Banxia had eaten today, Liu had no intention of asking her daughter-in-law to come back tomorrow.

Living in a house in the city is so quiet, with many people to serve you. The couple can sleep peacefully together, and if the food doesn’t suit their taste, there are other guests to come and help.

Shopkeeper Wang and his wife will never let Sanya be hungry, and Sanya's (cousin) aunt and the Zhao family will not let Sanya suffer any injustice.

It was similar to what Liu thought. Living in the village had its advantages, and living in the city had its advantages. But at this moment, Gu Wenxuan felt that it was more convenient to live in the city.

In the entire mansion, they are the only two masters. The guards and servants live in the outer courtyard, and the maids and old women live in the back room. Unless summoned, everyone abides by the rules and will not enter the inner courtyard easily.

After dinner, he returned to his room. As long as he ordered not to see any guests, no one could enter the inner courtyard. If there were any guests, Gu Dahua would entertain them. He didn't have to wait for curfew. He could read books when he wanted to, play the piano when he wanted to, and go into the villa when he wanted to. He didn't have to worry about someone suddenly breaking into his and his wife's yard.

Unlike in the village, he and his wife no longer see guests, but there are always guests coming to visit his parents, older brother and sister-in-law. Even if there are no guests, they cannot enter the villa at any time.

After all, the family only lived in the east and west wing rooms of the main house in a courtyard. By looking up, they could see whether the oil lamps were lit, when the lights were turned off to rest, and so on.

But the secret his wife kept could not withstand any test, including that of his family.

Although my parents, brothers, sisters-in-law and younger sisters are very good, they have children and grandchildren. No one knows what they will do for their children and grandchildren. It is better to know nothing.

But now, he and his wife went back to their room to rest, and even his wife's personal maid was not allowed to step into the inner room or study without being summoned.

It can be said that since they do not live in the same courtyard, the couple can do whatever they want. But it will be soon, because his father will be back and they can move.

After moving into the manor, it may seem that the family is still living together, but each family has their own courtyard, and they will have much more freedom. At least if there is another guest, not everyone can go directly to the west wing.

If his wife was too lazy to change clothes to meet guests, she could find all kinds of excuses to ask Mai Huang and the other maids to leave and not care who came to visit.

"Yes, it will be much more convenient." Zhou Banxia nodded with a smile, "But it's much better now. Since the establishment of Mai Huang, basically no matter who the guests are, they are blocked outside the small hall."

For example, when Old Lady Gu came to her second son's house, she would turn and talk and reach the west wing where she and her husband lived, and then someone would come in calling San Ya.

What could she say? It was not good to wear so little in the house in such hot weather, and she had to be a filial granddaughter-in-law and greet him immediately. But with Mai Huang, things were completely different.

Mai Huang would invite the old lady into the small hall and serve her tea, and then tactfully tell her that she was resting in the room or checking accounts in the study, and asked her to wait for a moment.

But then again, except for the old lady, the old lady was okay. She could see the clues after a few times and would not easily break into the couple's inner room.

But Oda's mother-in-law and daughters-in-law are not like that. Even though Oda was refused entry, her daughters-in-law didn't know what they were thinking. Sometimes, even Mai Huang couldn't stop them.

Including Gu Silang's wife Wan Niang, who, like Dalang's wife, was able to enter the inner courtyard, they would talk to themselves and call her while breaking into the inner room or study.

Once, she annoyed Mai Huang, and without waiting for her to respond, Mai Huang started to criticize the doorman for letting anyone in and disturbing her rest.

That's embarrassing.

When she left the study, she politely criticized Mai Huang a few words, but Gu Dalang's wife was too shameless to take it seriously.

She was at a loss for words at the time and didn't know what to say. After all, not to mention that Ma Shan had made it clear that she was going to break up with the other party, it seemed that she had no contact with the other party.

Firstly, they moved out soon after the separation, and then she was away from home to take the exam, and the other party also moved to the city; secondly, people with different goals cannot work together.

Of course, the most important thing is that the other party is too pretentious. She always likes to use her status as the eldest grandson's wife to say all sorts of nonsense, and her sense of self-existence is too strong.

So strong it's nauseating.

How could she care about a sister-in-law from the next room? But it happened that every time she came in with the old lady or Wang.

However, since I'm living in the city these days, it's impossible for her to come to my house, let alone use her status as the eldest grandson's wife to say something irresponsible.
