Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!-Chapter 631 Trust_1
Chapter 631: Chapter 631 Trust_1
Zhulan wanted to hurry to the fourth chamber’s courtyard, but Zhou Shuren held her hand, "Do you also want to sprain your ankle? Your body can’t handle that, and if you really broke a leg it might refuse to heal."
Zhulan glared at Zhou Shuren wordlessly, "Am I the kind of person who keeps suffering losses?"
Unfortunately, she contradicted herself immediately after, as she would have slipped if Zhou Shuren hadn’t been holding her.
Zhou Shuren, "Heh."
Zhulan fell silent, looking down at the cleaned ground. There wasn’t a bit of snow, yet she had still slipped. Her heart clenched with the thought of injury, an unpleasant feeling, "Ahem."
Zhou Shuren’s mouth showed a cold smile, but his hands were carefully supporting Zhulan. She really was a worry!
Following behind, Liu Ya pursed her lips and suppressed a laugh. The deep affection between the Family Head and his wife was truly enviable, it’s just that her own master wasn’t bad either, if only he knew how to be tender!
When they reached the fourth chamber’s courtyard, Zhou Shuren stayed in the hall while Zhulan went inside the room. Su Xuan lay there, not daring to move with sweat covering her forehead. The old women and maidservants were all extremely nervous.
Zhulan leaned over for a look; the belly had stopped moving, "It’s alright, it’s alright."
She thought it might have been time for the birth, counting the days; it wasn’t even seven months yet. Breaking out in a cold sweat, she truly feared something big happening to Su Xuan and the child.
Caressing her belly, Su Xuan said cautiously, "It gave us quite a scare just now, since the fetal movement began it has never been so intense."
She felt panicked. She could see the bulges on her belly as if it were about to burst.
Zhulan also gave the belly a pat, "This is from being tired, settling down, indeed a couple of restless children."
Su Xuan felt like crying, carrying this pregnancy had her constantly on edge. She had thought several times that after this birth, she wouldn’t have another; she couldn’t endure this mental torture anymore.
Zhulan asked, "Do you feel unwell anywhere else?"
After careful consideration, Su Xuan shook her head, "No, just feeling extremely tired."
The doctor arrived promptly and after a thorough examination, "The child is fine."
Su Xuan asked, "Then why the intense movements today?"
Stroking his beard, the doctor replied, "It might be a reaction to the emotional state of the mother’s body. The Magistrate should try to relax as much as possible to maintain a peaceful mood."
Su Xuan gazed at Chang Zhi with a gloomy look. This is about prenatal education, isn’t it? So not only does she not want to listen, the child doesn’t either, does it?
Chang Zhi, somewhat confused, "Why does my lady look at me so?"
With teary eyes, Su Xuan said, "Mother, your daughter-in-law thinks prenatal education isn’t needed."
Zhulan’s mouth twitched. Was Chang Zhi so eager to educate even the unborn child? That said, Zhulan felt guilty, as this prenatal education was definitely influenced by what Zhou Shuren had said.
"Ahem, indeed there is no need for prenatal education. You need a good rest," Zhulan insisted.
Chang Zhi looked regretfully at his wife’s belly, but on second thought, even if he were to conduct prenatal education, he wouldn’t dare to now. His heart couldn’t take it.
After giving some instructions, the doctor departed, and both Zhulan and Zhou Shuren went back.
Zhou Shuren looked up at the sky, "It’s snowing."
Zhulan gathered her cape around her, "I also don’t know if Yu Yi stirred up trouble after the move."
Zhou Shuren, "Don’t worry about them. Chang Lian and his wife can take good care of things."
Embracing the hand warmer, Zhulan said, "Let’s return. After all these frights, I’m not in the mood anymore, I just want to go back and rest."
Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes thoughtfully. He regretted teaching Chang Zhi to be steady, "You go back and rest. I’ll go to the study."
Turning her head, she instructed the young servant, "Invite Fourth Master to the study. He seems quite spirited; it appears we have given him too little homework."
When Chang Zhi heard the news, it struck him like a lightning bolt. He was utterly against it, through and through, "My dear wife, I want to stay and keep you company."
Su Xuan waved her handkerchief, "Safe travels, no need to send you off."
Chang Zhi was left speechless. Didn’t his wife say she loved him most? With every step he took, he looked back. He truly did not want to go; it had been so hard to finally get his father to relax his schooling, and now he felt like he was back at square one!
The banquet at the He Residence had ended, but the courtyard was still filled with relatives helping to clean up, as quite a few friends and family members had attended today.
Wu Ning heard the noise and smelled the alcohol. When her bridal veil was lifted, she saw a flushed He Shu and suddenly all her anxiety dissipated, her eyes softening into a gentle smile, "Have the brothers left?"
He Shu was dazzled by his own wife and suddenly found himself at a loss. He had no parents above him to teach him much, and he said nervously, "I personally saw them out. They have left early enough to make it into the city before dark."
Actually, the county where the He Residence was located was not far from Jinzhou City. This morning’s wedding procession took a while only because there were so many people, and it proceeded slowly.
Wu Ning stood up, as it was still early, "I, I’ll go out and help clean up."
The old nurse hurried to stop her, "Let the old servant and the maids take care of the courtyard, Madam. Don’t worry."
Hearing the word ’Madam’, Wu Ning didn’t know where to put her hands.
He Shu, seeing his wife more nervous than him, suddenly felt less anxious, "You’ve also been tired all day, sit down and rest."
Wu Ning touched her head then looked at her wedding dress, which she had put a lot of thought into. Although it wasn’t flashy, it was more elaborate than a typical bridal gown and especially heavy, "I want to remove my makeup and change clothes."
The old nurse chuckled, "I will prepare the hot water right away."
He Shu, with his head lowered, looked at his own clothes, "Ahem, I should change too."
Having said that, he walked to the wardrobe. Speaking of which, he didn’t have many clothes; they did not even fill one-third of the wardrobe, but it was now full. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Wu Ning hooked her finger, "I had the old nurse and maids place the clothes in there; I sorted them out while waiting."
He Shu’s mouth curled into a smile. He had his own home now and a wife he adored. With this in mind, he closed the wardrobe and took out a wooden box from another cupboard, "This is our family’s property deed, land title, and silver taels. From now on, I’ll entrust them to you."
Wu Ning was momentarily stunned. She had been wondering when He Shu would talk to her about it. Though she had already received the He family’s financial details from her aunt, He Shu giving them to her now was a sign of trust, and she wasn’t foolish enough to decline. She took them from him, "I will take good care of our home."
That evening, as it was almost dark, Zhou Shuren and his wife returned. Zhulan asked, "Did everything go smoothly; did anyone give Wu Ning a hard time?"
With so many people in the He family clan, she couldn’t investigate all of them, so she was still somewhat worried.
Mrs. Zhao had stayed close to Wu Ning, "Mother, Wu Ning is fine. I met the female members of Uncle He Shu’s family, and they were quite amiable."
Zhou Shuren picked up the conversation, "Even if some felt displeased with Wu Ning, today’s dowry shut the mouths of the womenfolk."
Mrs. Zhao continued, "Wu Ning has no in-laws, and the uncles separated early on, so they cannot control her. Mother, you can rest assured."
Zhulan trusted Zhou Shuren and his wife, who were the most attentive, "You two have worked hard today, go back and rest."
Zhou Shuren stood up, "Mother, why didn’t I see father?"
"Ah, your father is in the study checking Chang Zhi’s homework!"
Zhou Shuren asked no more, knowing Chang Zhi must have upset father again, which lightened his mood a bit more.
Just after Zhou Shuren left, Zhou Shuren returned, holding a letter in his hand. Zhulan asked, "Whose is it?"
Zhou Shuren massaged his brow, "A letter from Chang Lian."
