The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 1694 Unexpected Disaster

The next day, Zhulan wanted to take her youngest son to a women's college, but Changzhong went out after breakfast, "So where are you going?"

Qingxue shook her head, "Young master didn't say anything."

Zhulan, "Forget it, you go to the big room and ask Minghui to come over."

Minghui came over quickly, "Grandma, why did you think of taking me there?"

"You are the happiest at home."

"Obviously my father is also busy."

Zhulan, "Your father is going to Zhuangzi to deal with matters today, and he will be back tomorrow."

Minghui really didn't know, he didn't care about what his father was doing, and he couldn't leave the Hou Mansion anyway, "What happened to Zhuangzi?"

"I heard from your father that the fruit trees brought from the south have arrived, and he wants to watch them plant them."

Minghui let out a disinterested voice, "Grandma, shall we go out now?"

"good."

This time, the women's college that Zhulan came to as the dean was still a third unfinished. Zhulan entered the gate to look at the classrooms that had been built, and then walked around carefully before coming out of the college.

In the past, Zhulan had no right to intervene in the reconstruction, but now she has, she said to Wang Wei, "Can you help me build some greenhouses?"

Wang Wei, "There is still a budget, yes."

Zhulan regained her spirits, "After building the greenhouse, will there be any money left?"

Wang Wei asked, "What else would grandma want to add?"

Zhulan took a pen and paper to draw by herself, "I need a wall that can be written on, and build another room on the open space, a large room that can be used as a display."

In the future, students' works and so on will be exhibited here, which is of great significance.

She also wants to build a library, and let the girls write by themselves in the future, and it is of great significance to write it out stroke by stroke.

Seeing that Wang Wei didn't say a word, Zhulan drew what she thought of, "Can I add everything?"

Wang Wei took the blueprint, grandma didn't ask for excessive construction, "Yes."

Anyway, even if the building that grandma wants exceeds the budget, grandpa will not refuse to give money.

Zhulan turned her head, "Where's Minghui?"

Wang Wei was also surprised, "It was still there just now."

Qingxue will go look for it and come back soon.

"Madam, would you like to go and have a look?"

Zhulan said to Wang Wei: "I'll leave this to you, I'll go back when I find Minghui."

"Grandma, I'll see you off."

"No, you are busy."

Saying that, Zhulan led the people away, and Qingxue led the way to find Minghui, only to see Minghui leading the servants to help the brother and sister push the firewood train. Too much firewood fell into the ditch beside the road, and the brother and sister Already drenched in sweat.

Zhulan motioned for the guards to help, and when the trolley came up, the brother and sister hurriedly thanked her.

Minghui wiped his sweat with a pat, and said with a smile, "Grandma, why are you here?"

"I'll get you back to the city after I'm done."

After the two brothers and sisters thanked and left, Zhulan said: "Everyone is gone, are you still staring?"

Just now I asked about two brothers and sisters, elder brother fifteen, younger sister thirteen, both brothers and sisters look good, and it is difficult to hide their appearance in coarse clothes.

Minghui looked back, "The girl just asked about my girls' academy, but her brother interrupted."

Zhulan, "I see that my brother is studying."

"Well, don't think that you are a child at such a young age."

Zhulan said: "Her brother won't let her go to the academy, you don't know how to help, how can you help yourself?"

Minghui smiled, "My brother doesn't want my sister to earn money for him to study, so I don't let my sister go to college. This girl can read and write."

"You have inquired clearly enough, it is time to return to the city."

"I'm all for the women's college. My grandson knows that there are few female students."

Zhulan thought calmly, "You are all filial."

The road back to the city is not near, Zhulan asked, "You are not young anymore, have you ever thought about what kind of wife you will marry?"

"have not thought."

"I really never thought about it? You have two older brothers above you who can live easier. What do you think of your fourth uncle?"

Minghui laughed out loud, "I also marry someone with a lot of money like my fourth aunt?"

"Come on, I see you don't have this idea, forget it, I don't care, and tell me when you want to get married."

Minghui grinned, "Grandma, I don't want to get engaged right now."

He felt that he was still young and not in a hurry.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Butler Ding hurried forward, "Madam, you are back."

"What happened?"

Butler Ding said: "Young master saved the fourth prince, and his foot was stabbed."

Zhulan frowned, and hurried to the yard, "How did you save the Fourth Prince?"

It is impossible to be assassinated. The capital is the same as Tietong. Who would have the guts to assassinate the prince?

Butler Ding replied, "I heard from the young master that it was an innocent disaster. The antique shelf fell down, and it was said that the porcelain was broken all over the floor. The young master pulled the fourth prince to avoid his feet and stepped on the porcelain pieces."

Zhulan raised her voice, "Is the injury serious?"

"The doctor has re-examined it, and it needs to be treated for a few days if it is broken."

Zhulan breathed a sigh of relief, frightened her to death, and then asked: "Why did the antique shelf fall down? It can't be related to Changzhong!"

When an antique shelf falls over, what you hear is not the sound, but the silver coins!

Butler Ding hurriedly said: "It has nothing to do with the Fourth Prince and Young Master, that's why we say it was an innocent disaster."

Zhulan exhaled, it would be too bad to pay for the money after being injured.

While speaking, I arrived at Changzhong's courtyard. Hearing footsteps in the courtyard, he got up on one foot, "Mother, are you back?"

Zhulan saw her son's tightly bound feet at a glance, "Sit down quickly."

Changzhong sat down obediently and moved his feet, "Mother, the imperial physician and the doctor have all seen it, it's not a big deal."

Zhulan stared, "Tell me what's going on?"

Changzhong poured tea for his mother with an apologetic smile, "Today was unlucky. I met the young lady of Duke Yong'an in the antique shop. Somehow, I got into an argument with Miss Luo's family. The shelf of antiques fell down. The fourth prince and I kept hiding. I didn't expect to be implicated, and the gift chosen by the fourth prince for the prince was also broken."

After a pause, he continued: "Fortunately, the shopkeeper didn't make the fourth prince pay money."

Otherwise, the fourth prince should cry. Recently, the fourth prince's money is very tight, and the remaining money is only enough to choose gifts for the prince.

Zhulan was at a loss for words, "Aren't the two families engaged?"

Chang Zhong rubbed his nose, "It's not that my son eavesdropped, the young lady of the Yong'an Duke's Mansion was arrogant and said a few heart-wrenching words, and then accidentally knocked down the antique shelf by mistake."

He didn't say anything, there was another girl there, and with a few words, he got on the point, and even though he wasn't that big of a temper, he provoked it!

Zhulan became curious, "It's the fault of the two girls, who will pay for it?"

Chang Zhong spread his hands, "Grandson doesn't know, when grandson was injured, the fourth prince rushed to take grandson to see the injury."

Zhulan was curious, so she specially sent people to inquire, such a big news must have spread, and there would be a lot of money to be paid, the Yong'an Duke's Mansion is not afraid, it will kill the Luo Mansion.

Qingxue got the news that Duke Yong'an's mansion was completely compensated, Zhulan sighed, "There is money."

This time, the entire capital realized that the Yong'an Duke's Mansion had a lot of money, but the emperor must be unhappy, and every time he donated money to the Yong'an Duke's Mansion, he didn't donate much!
