Supreme Return

Chapter 440 The Zhou family's happy event!
The Zhou family in the imperial capital...

Ever since Zhao Qingtian, the Emperor Qingtian, personally decreed to marry Zhou Ming and Birui, there has been such a Zhou family among the wealthy nobles in the imperial capital!
Zhou Ming, the youngest of the Zhou family, Zhou Lan, the second young lady of the Zhou family...

Not to mention that Zhou Ming's wife, Birui, is one of the empress's most beloved maidservants, and Zhou Lan is even more the woman of Chu Xuan, the heir son of King Chu. It can be said that they are already destined couples. Not many people have seen Lan's appearance, but his identity is self-evident.

In this way, the Zhou family, Chu Palace, and the emperor have a very deep relationship!
In this imperial capital, and even in the entire Qingyun Empire, who would dare to underestimate it?Who dares to provoke?
The Zhou family has been visited by countless people every day since that day, from various aspects, but under the strict requirements of Zhou Wu, the Patriarch of the Zhou family, they have not been involved too much with any family or power, and it can be regarded as being alone .

With the development of the Zhou family in the imperial capital, Zhou Wu even transferred a lot of people from the Zhou family village in Tiantian City, which made the Zhou family in the imperial capital develop even faster.

But because of the existence of Zhou Wu, everyone in the Zhou family is strict with themselves and never participates in anything that has nothing to do with them!
Such silence, but it also shows the existence of the Zhou family more and more!
Not to mention anything else, just the cooperation between Zhou's family, Yijin Auction House and Baibao Pavilion created quite a storm in the imperial capital!

It can be said that the current Zhou family has become an indispensable existence in the imperial capital, and no one dares to underestimate it.

However, in recent days, the Zhou family has been caught in an incomparable surprise. Everyone under their master Zhou Wu has endless joy on their faces, and even walks vigorously, but every time they approach the back In a certain courtyard, everyone's footsteps could not help being much lighter, as if they were afraid of disturbing someone in the courtyard...

Yes, it is indeed a happy event!

For the Zhou family, it was a great joy!

Birui, Zhou Ming's wife, is pregnant!

This also means that the Zhou family has a queen!

Although it's only one more, nearly two months, Birui has become the absolute object of protection of everyone in the Zhou family. Almost every day, all kinds of supplements continue to make Birui completely fatter, but she has become more and more maternal. The brilliance, on the contrary, looks much more beautiful...

"Brother Ming..."

In the courtyard room that day, Birui looked pitifully at the bowl of top-quality bird's nest placed in front of her by the maid, raised her head and bit her lip to look at Zhou Ming, with a completely pitiful look.

"do not……"

Zhou Ming hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands, "Father personally arranged this, I dare not drink it for you anymore! If I make it up again, I will have to vomit blood!"

"But, I don't want to drink anymore..."

Birui took Zhou Ming's hand and acted coquettishly.

"Hey, it's my father's kindness!"

Zhou Ming persuaded with a bitter face, and looked at his wife's pitiful and aggrieved appearance, as if he had made some decision, and said, "How about this, you eat today's first, and I will wait for my father to come back later in the evening. Tell him personally, let him stop busy arranging these things, let's stop for a few days and have a look!"

"Really?"

After hearing Zhou Ming's words, Bi Rui's beautiful eyes lit up, and after getting Zhou Ming's affirmative answer, she shrugged her mouth, picked it up, and ate the bowl of bird's nest in small bites, with a slight frown on each bite It makes people worry, it seems that what they are eating is not some delicacies, but poison that penetrates the intestines.

This kind of top-quality bird's nest, not to mention ordinary people, is afraid that even many officials in the court would not be able to take it like this every day, it is really quite precious.

It can be seen from this that for the sake of his daughter-in-law and the child in her womb, Zhou Wu, the father-in-law, also spent a lot of thought.

Perhaps, it is true that doing this every day is too much, but it is also due to Zhou Wu's concern. After all, Birui is pregnant with the blood and future of their Zhou family!

…………

On the other side, Chu Xiaotian and Chu Xuan had already come out of the palace.

Chu Xiaotian also continued to deal with some affairs, while Chu Xuan went straight to Zhou's house, because most of them were old acquaintances in Zhou's house, and there was no one to stop him. , Chu Xuan walked in directly.

Father-in-law Zhou Wu is busy with the Zhou family's business, leaving early and returning late almost every day, and now he has left and is not at home.

Chu Xuan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, but after learning about Birui's pregnancy from his subordinates, he was also very happy, and walked straight to the backyard without further words.

Soon, they arrived outside the courtyard of Zhou Ming and Bi Rui.

"Brother, sister-in-law!"

Chu Xuan walked in with a smile and said hello.

"Sir!"

"See you son!"

The two were also very happy when they saw it.

"I've already said that I'm going to leave behind, but we're a family, so we'll call me Xuanzi!" Chu Xuan said.

"Haha... good, good! Xuanzi!"

Birui was still a little hesitant. After all, she had lived in the palace for a long time, and she still valued the rules.

But Zhou Ming didn't care too much, he smiled and invited Chu Xuan inside to sit down.

"I heard that sister-in-law is pregnant. It's a good thing! Why didn't you inform us?" After sitting down, Chu Xuan asked with a smile.

"hey-hey……"

Zhou Ming scratched his head with a happy smile on his face.

"Shi...Xuan, don't mind Xuanzi, we are afraid that you are busy with important matters outside, so this is why..." Bi Rui hurriedly explained.

"No matter how important the outside world is, how can it be as important as the affairs of your own family?"

Chu Xuan grinned, "Brother, sister-in-law, how many months has it been?"

"It's been almost two months!" Bi Rui replied with a flushed face.

"Wow! It seems that my nephew or niece will be born in seven or eight months!"

Chu Xuan smiled and nodded, full of joy.

But immediately, he couldn't help but darken his complexion, "Hey..."

"Xuanzi, what's wrong?"

Zhou Ming and Bi Rui were startled by this sudden change.

"Brother, sister-in-law, to be honest, I came back this time to say goodbye to you!"

Chu Xuan sighed and replied.

"Farewell?"

The two were startled again when they heard the words.

"Xuanzi, where are you going? Could it be somewhere far away?" Zhou Ming asked.

"Hmm! It's very far, very far! It's so far away that we may..."

Chu Xuan hesitated in his heart.

What he meant was that they might never see each other again in the future.

After all, none of them are cultivators. If they come back after hundreds of years, unless Zhou Ming and the others can cultivate to the stage of god-level powerhouses, it may really be a farewell.

Moreover, god-level powerhouses may not really be able to live that long, after all, there is still a big difference between a warrior and a cultivator.

"Ha ha……"

Zhou Ming didn't understand this. He laughed loudly, "Xuanzi, so what if it's far away? Our family will meet again in the end!"

"Hehe, let's not talk about this!"

Chu Xuan circulated his true energy secretly, suppressing the sadness of parting in his heart, and then smiled, "I have notified Lan'er and the others just now that they are about to rush back from the villa! It's all my fault, this time I came back with my father , and didn’t bring them either!”

"Hehe, don't rush, don't rush..."

Zhou Ming grinned, and looked at Birui tenderly, "Birui won't give birth in eight months, so she must have time to see the baby born!"

"Ha ha……"

After hearing this, Chu Xuan couldn't help but secretly smiled bitterly, and was speechless for a while.

We can only wait for Zhou Lan and the others to come back, and then we can find a suitable opportunity to tell them about their going to the cultivation world.

"Oh, yes, sister-in-law, this is for you!"

Chu Xuan let out a long breath, took out a jade pendant and a small jade sword, and handed them to Bi Rui.

"Xuanzi, this is..." Bi Rui was stunned and asked.

She has lived in the palace for a long time, but compared to Zhou Ming, she needs to see more.

He also felt that something was wrong with Chu Xuan at this time, but he didn't ask any more questions.

"This jade pendant is for you to wear, it can ensure the safety of you and your child, and it can nourish your body and keep it in good condition!"

Chu Xuan chuckled and explained, "As for this little sword, it can be regarded as a gift from me to the unborn child! Let him wear it around his neck after he is born, and it will be beneficial to him in the future!"

Chu Xuan did not say that this little sword is actually a magic weapon.

There is also a kind of self-cultivation technique in it!
The opportunity has already been given, and we can only see if Zhou Ming and Bi Rui's children will have the opportunity to experience all of this in the future. After all, opportunities for cultivation cannot be forced...

"This……"

After hearing Chu Xuan's words, Zhou Ming and Bi Rui became more and more dazed.

Zhou Ming glanced at Chu Xuan suspiciously, and said, "Xuan Zi, your sister-in-law is only two months pregnant, why did you even prepare the gift for our child? Could it be that it will take a long time for you to leave this time?" ?"

"Hehe, yes! It's very long, am I worried that I won't be able to come back as soon as the child is born?" Chu Xuan replied with a smile.

"But……"

Zhou Ming frowned, and was about to ask something, but Bi Rui pulled him back.

"Okay, Brother Ming!"

Birui said, "Xuanzi, then I will thank you on behalf of the child! Don't worry, I will keep this little sword safe, and let him wear it properly when he is born in the future!"

"Ok!"

Chu Xuan smiled and nodded.

"Brother Ming, I want to eat some fruit, go and get some for me!" Bi Rui blinked, then suddenly turned her head and said to Zhou Ming.

"Oh! Good, good!"

Zhou Ming got up quickly, talked to Chu Xuan, and walked out quickly.

But at this time, Birui ordered the servants next to him to withdraw, and then she looked at Chu Xuan, with a light of wisdom in her eyes, and asked hesitantly, "Xuanzi, can you tell me, what are you doing?" Where are you going?"

"Hehe, sister-in-law, didn't I tell you to go to a far, far place!" Chu Xuan replied with a smile.

"Our Mowu Continent is indeed extremely vast, but even from east to west, from south to north, with your strength, Xuanzi, it is impossible not to come back within eight months! Moreover, even though you just hid Great, but still made me see something different!"

Bi Rui sighed softly, "I've lived in the palace for so long, and I still have the ability to look at people!"

"Ha ha……"

Hearing what Birui said, Chu Xuan couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, and immediately said, "Sister-in-law, let's talk about it when Lan'er and the others come back! I still have to visit some other people, so I'll take my leave first!"

After finishing speaking, he got up and left straight away, making Birui's eyes full of worry. She didn't come back to herself until Zhou Ming walked in with the fruit washed several times...
