Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!-Chapter 1346: Must Pamper My Own Younger Brother

Returning to the main courtyard, Zhulan felt tired just looking at her daughter’s clothes, "There’s no outsider in the house; there’s no need to keep up appearances. Take a rest."

Xue Han didn’t insist on being formal either, "Once elder sister returns, it’ll be time for Jiang Zhu’s engagement."

Zhulan hummed in agreement, "Once your elder sister has a daughter-in-law, she can rest assured and travel everywhere with your brother-in-law."

Xue Han chuckled, mother must be envious of my elder sister, "Elder sister is doing quite well right now."

Some people envied the elder sister, others did not; she felt that her elder sister’s life was truly worthwhile. Not to mention her children, in this era, which other woman could travel and see the world like her elder sister?

Zhulan smiled, "She has lived a carefree life. When she’s old and can no longer travel, all she has seen and felt will be treasures for her descendants."

Xue Han’s eyes curved, "Mother, Rongchuan will take me to the south next year."

Zhulan, "That’s very nice."

She didn’t want her daughter to be stuck in the capital as Princess Qin; it was good for her to go out and see more of the world.

Xue Han said: "Rongchuan mentioned that the ports in the south are developing very quickly, with lots of novel things appearing."

"A lot has been brought back by Ming Teng already."

Handicrafts were becoming increasingly varied, and many new industries were emerging.

Xue Han asked, "Does second brother need any help? Every time I ask my sister-in-law, she says no need."

"If your sister-in-law says there’s no need, then there’s no need. Your second brother can handle it."

Xue Han was worried someone might bully second brother, but since mother said so, she stopped worrying, "Is Ming Rui’s engagement set then?"

"Mm, it will be settled after Jiang Zhu’s marriage."

"Many girls in the capital will be heartbroken this time."

Zhulan chuckled, "Someone has finally claimed our family’s beauty."

Xue Han also laughed. With such a handsome family member, as his aunt, she too had been asked about by many!

The next morning, in the Wang family’s courtyard which was closer to the front courtyard—this was Wang Wei’s yard, and as the eldest grandchild, it naturally was spacious.

Yu Lu opened her eyes, still a bit dazed. Feeling a presence beside her, she slowly came to realize that she had gotten married.

Wang Wei had already awakened, and when he saw his wife coming to, he said, "Awake now."

Yu Lu blushed, "Mm."

It was still early; Wang Wei held down his wife who was trying to get up, "It’s still early; rest a bit more."

Yu Lu had seen Wang Wei quite a few times over the years, and they were not without affection. Hearing this, she felt at ease, hummed, didn’t pretend, and closed her eyes. In the Wang family, the rules were strict. She had a mother-in-law, a grandmother, and a great-grandmother above her. Unlike Zhou’s warm and united rear courtyard, she needed to be fully energized to not embarrass the Zhou family.

Wang Wei touched his nose. In the days leading up to the wedding, his uncle and Mr. Hou were with him daily. Not to mention what his great-grandfather and grandfather said, he never thought about bullying his wife.

Wang Wei wasn’t someone who only read books and remained oblivious to worldly affairs; as the eldest grandson, his education was comprehensive. He was well aware of his family’s situation and worried if his wife, who grew up in a friendly and loving environment of Zhou’s family, could adapt.

Clearly, Wang Wei’s worries were unnecessary; the reputation of the Zhou family’s girls in the capital was not unfounded.

Yu Lu won the affection of Mrs. Tao and the old lady of the Zhou family, and with her family background, no one dared to bully her. Even if Wang Wei’s mother felt uneasy, she couldn’t find a reason to nitpick. Even the dowry, which could have been criticized, turned out to be quite respectable.

With three generations of women above her, Yu Lu remembered her grandmother’s advice to know both herself and others to avoid being passive. Over the years, she had learned a lot about the preferences of the Wang family’s women.

Before her marriage, her grandmother had given her more detailed information, and she didn’t know how her grandmother found out, but even the grudges between the Wang family’s stewards were known.

This morning, Yu Lu received many gifts. Once back in her own courtyard, her tense nerves finally relaxed.

Wong Wei looked at his wife with amusement, "You don’t actually need to worry about Mother; she is going back to Xizhou Province in a few days."

Yu Lu, "You don’t understand."

The relationship between the mother-in-law and the grandmother has indeed eased a lot, but the traces remain, and the mother-in-law will still remember them. As a result, it makes things difficult for her as a daughter-in-law.

On one side is the mother-in-law, and on the other is the grandmother; just thinking about it is distressing.

Wong Wei coughed, "If our son comes early, my mother will definitely spoil you."

Yu Lu blushed, glaring with wide eyes, "In broad daylight."

Fortunately, the maids were all sent out. Thinking of the maids in the yard, the ones she brought with her were found by her little aunt, arranged by her grandmother, just like her elder sister’s maids.

She brought more maids than her elder sister as part of her dowry. Her elder sister didn’t need them, but she did. She should be grateful for her extraordinary family. She knew that some of the maids and matrons in her former yard had been sent away.

This was the sincerity the Wong family showed to the Zhou family; it was what her grandfather had fought for. Indeed, the daughters of the Zhou family were enviable. freewebnøvel.com

In the blink of an eye, it was the three-day return visit, and Zhulan completely reassured when she saw how sweet the young couple was with each other.

After Yu Lu and her husband left, Chang Zhong asked, "Mother, won’t you check the return visit gifts?"

"There’s no need to look at them; the Wong family cares more about the return visit gifts than us."

These return visit gifts represented the Wong family’s attitude towards the Zhou family. She didn’t need to see them, as the marriage between the Wong and Zhou families was mutually beneficial. Ever since the status of the Zhou family changed, it was a big happy event for the Wong family, who would only value Yu Lu even more.

Chang Zhong, "Marrying into a family is so troublesome."

"That’s because you’re still young and find it troublesome. When you have sons and daughters of your own, you won’t feel that way anymore."

Chang Zhong stretched out his finger, "I don’t want to have as many as elder brother; being like fourth brother is fine by me."

Zhulan hummed, "Your mother here didn’t have few either."

Chang Zhong chuckled apologetically, "That’s because mother is great."

Zhulan, "You sure have a way with words."

In the eldest son’s household, the eldest couple almost shed tears. Elder Zhou was unreliable, and the one who came forward was Mingyun.

Wong Wei respected his eldest uncle; he remembered every word his uncle said.

Mingyun pulled out the documents and his own notes he had organized, "This is what I’ve prepared for you."

Wong Wei took it and was amazed; this was incredibly precious. His eldest uncle was a genuine second-place scholar, just a step away from being the Top scorer. The great-grandfather said that if it weren’t for a bit of bad luck, the uncle would have been the Top scorer. Grandfather also told him to learn from his eldest uncle as much as he could.

Mingyun thought to himself, before and after his sister got married, he naturally had to change his approach to his brother-in-law. Now that his sister was married, he wanted to make his brother-in-law respect and be grateful to him. If he gained control over his brother-in-law, why would he fear that he would treat his sister poorly?

Ming Hui looked at his brother-in-law, who was completely immersed in gratitude, and noticed that he was completely unaware of his elder brother’s thoughts.

Ming Teng also took out a share, "I didn’t participate in the imperial examination, but I got some early notes from my little aunt’s husband for you. I hope they can help you."

Wong Wei felt like he was being overwhelmed by happiness. And there was also something from Prince Qin; Prince Qin was a genuine Tanhua.

Ming Hui’s lip twitched slightly. Uncle Wu Ming was not in the capital; otherwise, there would surely be an extra share from a Top scorer. Their family was indeed formidable; no wonder many children of noble families in the capital would do anything to become disciples of his third uncle and fourth uncle.

Ming Hui, being a younger brother, did not need to prepare anything. Ming Jung continued to enjoy pastries, as if the conversation in front of him did not concern him much.

Ming Hui looked at his little brother, a tad worried, but then, he thought about what their mother had said, and it made sense. With several powerful brothers, Ming Jung could have an easy life, and that would be pretty nice.

Ming Hui picked up a pastry from his side and offered it to his brother, "Have another piece."

Ming Jung smiled sweetly, "Thank you, brother."

Ming Hui was too soft-hearted; naturally, he had to spoil his own brother, "Good boy."
