Rebirth of Yijia

Chapter 133

Zhou Chengchi didn't show up until after breakfast the next day.

He didn't go to other places last night. Wenmei had a big belly and felt sick to her stomach yesterday. He went to see her, but he really couldn't bear to leave, so he stayed outside with her all night.

But thinking that he didn't ask anyone to deliver the letter after all, he hurried back after breakfast this morning.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of Dongfu, they saw Wang Quan guarding the gate.Wang Quan is the new butler of the West Mansion who has been in office for less than half a year. What is he doing in the East Mansion?
Because Wenmei's residence is not far away, Zhou Chengchi walked there, so naturally he is walking back now.He walked over with his hands behind his back, and scolded: "Is there nothing wrong in the West Mansion? Early in the morning, you went to the gate of the East Mansion to poke your head. What are you doing?"

Wang Quan almost lost his temper.

"Master, the younger one was sent by the second master. Something happened to the young master Xuan in Dongfu yesterday. The old lady and the eldest lady fainted from fright. There is no one in charge here, so Our master called the little one over." Wang Quan explained the facts neither humble nor overbearing.

Zhou Chengchi's face was completely gloomy, what does the second child mean, that there is no one in Dongfu who bullied him?

If something happened in the mansion, there is him and the housekeeper of the East mansion, so why should he intervene?
"I see, you go back!" Zhou Chengchi said bluntly: "I'm here in the East Mansion, and Mrs. Zhou is here, so you don't need to work, you master worry about it!"

Wang Quan really wanted to give up. How did this old master get admitted to Jinshi and how did he become an official?It's okay for him to have no news about such a big event at home. The second master has worked hard, and he doesn't say a word of gratitude, but he still looks like the second master is meddling in his own business.

Wang Quan held back his anger and said patiently: "Yesterday, people from both the eastern and western prefectures were sent to look for the elder, but there was no news from you, and Steward Zhou was sent by his wife to collect the rent from the end of the year farm, so Our master can only call me over. Now that the elder master is back, the younger one will not stay any longer, but the doctor at Master Xuan’s side has not come to change his medicine today, and the old lady’s place has not been used yet. For breakfast, please ask the Elder to know."

He is a housekeeper, so he doesn't need to worry about these internal affairs.Come to Dong Mansion to work hard, don't talk about it, if you don't get any good, you will be punished, whoever wants to come, whoever wants to come!

After Wang Quan finished speaking, regardless of Zhou Chengchi's increasingly ugly face, he gave a salute, turned around and strode towards the West Mansion.

What happened?
Brother Xuan needs to change his medicine, is he injured?
What happened to the mother?
Zhou Chengchi strode into the courtyard without arresting those who greeted him all the way to ask about the situation, and went straight to the old lady Zhou's upper room.

Cailian in the house was trying to persuade the old lady Zhou, "Old lady, you can just have some porridge. If you collapse, what will the family do?"

Mrs. Zhou pushed the bowl away, "I can't drink it."

Cai Lian wanted to persuade her again, but Zhou Chengchi's bright and gentle voice came from outside the door, "Mother, you have to eat this breakfast, eat a little bit, this winter, if you don't eat something to cushion, you will feel colder."

He walked in as he spoke, with a smile on his face.

The old lady Zhou stared at him quietly for a moment, then suddenly shouted: "You still have the face to come back!"

"Son... what's wrong with my son?" Zhou Chengchi was caught off guard and stuttered.

This evil!

Such a big thing happened to his son and daughter, and he, a father, doesn't know what's wrong!
Furious, Mrs. Zhou snatched the bowl from Cailian's hand and threw it towards Zhou Chengchi's face.

Food in winter cools down quickly, so this porridge was warmed up in the house by Cailian, and served while it was hot.Zhou Chengchi only felt a darkness in front of him, and then he was so hot that he jumped up and down.

"Oh mother, mother, what are you doing!" he shouted angrily while jumping.

The old lady Zhou rolled her eyes in anger, she leaned back, and fell straight down.

"Old lady—" Cailian yelled and rushed over.

Zhou Chengyan couldn't care less about himself, and hurriedly shouted outside the door: "Doctor, please, hurry up and invite the doctor!"

"Doctor, how is my mother?" Zhou Chengyan asked in a low voice after sending the doctor to the outside room.

The doctor shook his head and said: "The old lady was frightened yesterday, and she should be able to give birth easily today, but you...but you are so angry again. Thanks to the old lady who has always been strong in the past, if you Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be impossible if the Da Luo Immortal comes..."

Ah, how can this work, my mother hasn't enjoyed much happiness yet, how can she go so early, and she is still angry with herself.Zhou Chengchi only felt that his heart was being pulled together, and he hurriedly took the doctor's hand and said, "Doctor, please, please save my mother. Please, what medicine do you want and how much is the consultation fee? You just care about it." Say, just say, our Zhou family will definitely satisfy you!"

The doctor glanced at him, but sighed. Although the grandchildren of the Zhou family are not good, fortunately, the two sons are not bad, and they are filial. The old lady's life is not in vain.

"Master Zhou, don't worry, the old lady's life is not in danger for the time being, but I must never make the old lady angry again." The doctor said to Zhou Chengchi.

"Yes, yes, yes, I remember, I remember! Doctor, hurry up and prescribe the medicine. I'll ask someone to decoct it for mother to drink." Zhou Chengchi said anxiously.

The doctor nodded, freed his arm from Zhou Chengchi's hand, and then followed the maid down to write the prescription.

As soon as the doctor left, Zhou Chengchi wanted to go into the house to see Mrs. Zhou, but Zhou Chengyan stopped him, "Brother, don't you want to go and see Brother Xuan?"

Early in the morning, someone from Xifu came to report that the mother was fainted by the elder brother's anger.Zhou Chengyan hurried over, and seeing Zhou Chengchi's appearance, he felt annoyed.

"He's just a child, he needs to be taken care of for two days after being injured, what to watch!" Zhou Chengchi put on an elder brother's face and taught his younger brother, "A child is a child, and a child should be loved and cared for, but after all, the mother is the biggest contributor to this family." No matter when, you should always put your mother first!"

Zhou Chengyan did not expect that his brother would still be so confused at this time.

"Brother, did Brother Xuan suffer some injury that can be healed after two days of care? He offended someone outside, and his hands were chopped off!" Zhou Chengyan no longer worried about his servants, and said directly: "Doctor see It’s impossible to catch up, from now on Brother Xuan don’t mention writing with a pen, even daily life is no good!”

Zhou Chengchi acted as if you were joking, Brother Xuan got the eye of King Xiang, who in the whole capital would dare to touch King Xiang's people?
But Zhou Chengyan didn't let him go, waved his servants away, pulled Zhou Chengchi in, and continued: "There is also Sister Han, the doctor also diagnosed her pregnant yesterday, and it has been two months. Night……"

"Zhou Chengyan!" Zhou Chengyan yelled, and he had already punched him.

Zhou Chengyan was unprepared and was punched firmly by him.

Zhou Chengchi was still not reconciled, his face turned purple with anger, and he cursed: "I know you have been far away from me for the past six months, and you don't come to Dongfu very often, even your two nephews and nieces you don't like, but you As an elder, how can you give such a dirty hat to the younger generation with such nonsense! Could it be that Sister Han's reputation has been ruined, what good can Yijia get?"

No matter how good Zhou Chengyan's temperament was at the moment, he covered his chest and sneered again and again, "Brother is very capable, and he will do it without asking clearly. Today I see that you are my big brother. I will not fight with you." You care about it, but there will never be a next time! As for your son and daughter, believe it or not, just ask and you will know!"

After finishing speaking, he refused to stay any longer, entered the room and took a look at the old lady Zhou before leaving the East Mansion.

Only then did Zhou Chengchi feel flustered, and he staggered to see Zhou Xuan.Zhou Xuan was still in a coma, and Zhou Chengchi saw his two arms on the quilt at a glance. The ends of the arms were not hands, but a ball wrapped in white cloth.

His best son, really ruined!

With red eyes, he grabbed the maids and servants who served Zhou Xuan, "Who did it, who made Brother Xuan like this!"

He roared loudly, and his eyes gradually turned red.

That was his son, his eldest son, the eldest son who he watched grow up little by little, and held hope.Even though the incident with the servant made him very disappointed with this son, this is still his beloved son!
The servant girl shook her head, but the boy said, "Yes... King Xiang sent someone to do it."

"... King Xiang?" Zhou Chengchi was stunned, but immediately kicked the boy over, "You are talking nonsense, King Xiang values ​​Brother Xuan, how could he, how could he treat Brother Xuan like this!"

The boy spat out blood from being kicked, and continued: "It's the real master. The man said before he did it, telling our young master to stay away from Princess Chengmin. Princess Chengmin is not someone he can think of. But, But……"

Don't need to talk about it, Zhou Chengchi already knew it.

His son fell in love with Princess Cheng Min, and Princess Cheng Min also had a good impression of his son, which was something he was quite proud of.If he could marry a daughter-in-law of the princess, then Princess An and Princess would help her in her official career no matter what.

Unexpectedly...

Zhou Chengchi left Zhou Xuan's place dejectedly. He wanted to see his daughter and ask what was going on, but he stopped halfway.

It must be true there.

At this moment, he was sad, regretful and angry. If he went like this, he couldn't guarantee that he would hurt his daughter in anger.

He has already ruined a son, and he doesn't want to ruin his daughter too.

This year is doomed to be unhappy, what happened in Zhou's East Mansion, even Xiao Song's pregnancy didn't make Mrs. Zhou happy.

They didn't eat together for the New Year's Eve dinner either. Zhou Chengyan brought Mrs. Zhou to the West Mansion to celebrate the New Year, and kept the New Year's Eve again, returning to the East Mansion on the first day of the new year.

In previous years, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the grandchildren came to kowtow to pay New Year's Eve money, but this year, Ran's face was washed with tears all day long, Zhou Xuan woke up and was silent like a walking dead, and Zhou Yihan hid in the boudoir to embroider the dowry, so in the end, Only Zhou Chengchi took Zhou Qi there.

On the other hand, people from the West Mansion went neatly, Yi Jia, Yi Wan, and Zhou Chengyan and his wife sent the old lady back, and then paid New Year's greetings directly in the East Mansion.

The old lady Zhou was so uninterested that she didn't even let her head be knocked. She gave a few lucky money to a few children and kicked them all out.

It had just snowed and it was difficult to walk on the ground. Zhou Chengyan hugged his little daughter with one hand, and walked out slowly while supporting Xiao Song's waist with the other.Yijia followed Xiao Song closely, holding her arms with both hands, reminding her to be careful of her feet from time to time.

Xiao Song said with a smile: "I'm not a child, so I need to trouble you two to help me."

After finishing speaking that day, Zhou Chengyan did not leave the room after all.But he was skeptical about her words, and he wanted to wait for Liang Mingzhi to come to ask, but Anping Hou Mansion was probably busy a year ago, so Liang Mingzhi never came over.It's the end of the new year, and according to the practice of previous years, Liang Mingzhi should have come in the third year of junior high school.

"Oh, it turns out that mother only wants my father to support her, she dislikes me, and doesn't want me to support her!" Yijia smiled and glanced at Zhou Chengyan, as if I understood.

"You girl!" Xiao Song said angrily.

Yijia giggled, but held onto Xiao Song's arm even more tightly, "No matter what, I won't let go of my mother anyway."

The extremely warm appearance of the family of four deeply hurt Zhou Chengchi.He sighed, and took two quick steps to catch up, "Second brother, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

"Jia'er, help your mother go back first." Zhou Chengyan said, and handed Zhou Yiwan to Yuxiang who was following behind.

"What do you want to tell me, brother?" In the study, Zhou Chengyan didn't even sit down, and asked straight to the point.

Zhou Chengchi coughed in embarrassment, and said, "Yes...it's about Sister Han. I heard that you have already been to the Anping Marquis Mansion. I don't know about it..."

Although this matter is scandalous, Zhou Chengchi only has one daughter as Zhou Yihan.He couldn't help but think about her, not to mention that the other party was the Marquis of Anping, so it was considered a good marriage.

Therefore, even though old lady Zhou learned about her disappointing son, she secretly murdered Yijia, and even injured Yijia and almost killed her.Zhou Chengchi had no choice but to save face, so he bit the bullet and asked Zhou Chengyan.

Zhou Chengyan said indifferently: "Brother, don't worry, the last time I went to the Marquis Mansion in Anping, the eldest son has already verified with the second master of the Marquis Mansion, and he said that the Marquis Mansion will invite someone to propose marriage in the first month. Brother just needs to prepare everything that needs to be prepared." , get this marriage done as soon as possible."

Zhou Chengchi nodded repeatedly, it had to be done early, otherwise it would be troublesome if he got pregnant before getting married.

"Since the elder brother is fine, the younger brother will leave first." Zhou Chengyan made a gesture to leave after speaking.

Seeing that Zhou Chengyan had already walked to the door, Zhou Chengchi choked out a sentence, "Second brother... Last time, it was my impulse to be the eldest brother."

Zhou Chengyan paused, but did not respond, and immediately strode out.
