Clear Wear and Lie to Win

Chapter 142 Parents Arrive

Lin Jiashi is still "recovering from illness". On the other hand, Zhu Tao's parents came to the capital.

The servants at home bought some and used them to clean up the household chores so that the parents would not even have someone to order them around when they came.

Zhu Tao's father is Zhu Jingjing, and his mother is Wang.

The moment Zhu Tao saw his parents, the corners of his eyes suddenly turned sour, and he felt the urge to cry, and he knew it was the original owner's emotions.

Since he used someone else's body, he would be filial to his parents.

Zhu Tao stepped forward and said: "The child is not filial, so he can't take his parents to the city in person. The parents are exhausted all the way, and it's hard work."

His parents taught his son that his eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he muttered: "Don't work hard, you are a good boy, a good boy."

Along the way, although there were stops in the middle, but after all, he was on his way, and his face was not very good, Zhu Tao said: "The hot water and meals have been prepared, parents, younger brothers and sisters go to the house to wash up, let's talk again! "

Zhu Qiang smiled and said, "Okay, I agree with my son's arrangement."

Courtyards in Beijing are not easy to sell. This time, parents can live in the same yard, younger sisters can live in the same yard, younger brothers can live in the same yard, and a cousin can also live in the same yard.

Including myself, a total of five courtyards are needed. There are not many small courtyards in this small house, and there are still some servants' rooms, which looks quite crowded.

Zhu Tao pondered, it's time to change to a bigger dimension.

The family had a joyous reunion dinner together. At the dinner table, Zhu Tao said: "There are not many servants in the family. Since my mother is here, I will ask Lao Niang to choose some servants to serve, and a young woman will come to the door tomorrow."

Wang naturally agreed.

After dinner, Zhu Tao settled down with his parents. The rest of his brothers, sisters and cousins ​​were taken to the courtyard where they should be settled. He went back to his study. It is not easy to get it out completely.

Besides, he was easily influenced by simplified characters, which slowed down the progress.

His cousin's name is Wang Jiao, his younger sister's name is Zhu Xiu'er, and his younger brother's name is Zhu Huai.

Along the way, Zhu Xiuer and her cousin Wang Jiao inevitably got closer because they were both girls.

Because of being close, Zhu Xiu'er also knew what this cousin was thinking, and she had no objection, if her cousin could marry her brother, she would be naturally happy, so that there would be no tension between sister-in-law and sister-in-law.

The reason why she thinks this way is mainly because she doesn't have a deep relationship with her brother. She is the youngest daughter in the family, and she is seven or eight years younger than her brother. She is only 13 years old now.

Everyone has the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and her brother is now the most promising one in the family, so she naturally hopes that he will be close.

But the age difference between the siblings is relatively large, and she and the second brother are closer. Moreover, Zhu Tao rarely returned home when he was in his hometown, and most of them went out to study.

Zhu Xiu'er has a good relationship with her cousin, so she naturally hopes that they will go further.

When there was no one around, Zhu Xiu'er came to her cousin's small courtyard and said, "Cousin, how do you feel seeing my brother today?"

Wang Jiao blushed, and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhu Xiu'er smiled and said, "I still don't understand what my cousin is thinking? I hope I have a sister-in-law as soon as possible!"

Naturally, Wang Jiao wanted to be Zhu Xiu'er's sister-in-law, but after all, she didn't say anything about it, and the two didn't have a definite marriage contract. Now that her cousin was working in the Imperial Academy, and she was second in this class, she was afraid that Zhu Tao would look down on her.

"Don't talk about my cousin. If it damages my cousin's reputation, it will be bad. Besides, I also know myself. I'm afraid that my cousin is not worthy of his current status."

When Wang Jiao said this, her tone was indescribably lonely. Zhu Xiu'er didn't know what she was talking about. Wang Jiao's parents were just white. He is the second place in this subject, and Wang Jiao's identity is really high to marry him.

Because of her selfishness, Zhu Xiu'er said: "No one else can compare to my cousin, besides, my brother is not the kind of snobbish person."

Zhu Tao is indeed not a snobbish person, but he is not a person who does not care about Chang Lun. Marrying a cousin is incest in his opinion, forgive him for not being able to do it!
He is destined to be difficult to do things that are snobbish in the eyes of his sister.

Wang Jiao sighed and said: "I know my identity in my heart. I really dare not think about letting my cousin marry me. With my identity, I am content with my cousin's pity."

Zhu Xiu'er understood what she meant, but she was just a concubine, Zhu Xiu'er was struck by lightning, she really didn't expect her cousin to have such thoughts.

His parents are quite enlightened, she also came to study since she was a child, so she naturally understands that she would rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine, now that her cousin wants to be her brother's concubine, how can she not be shocked.

Seeing her like this, Wang Jiao smiled wryly and said: "My whole heart is on my cousin. If I can marry my cousin, I don't want to be a concubine, but with my status."

Zhu Xiu'er also had some headaches, so she comforted her: "My brother is not engaged now, since your mother is here, you will naturally have her plans, and your mother loves you, so naturally she will not see you as a concubine, besides, your mother is not like that." If you insist on clinging to rich people, my cousin can think better."

Wang Jiao seemed to be comforted.

"So much?"

"Of course it's true. Cousin still doesn't know about mother? She couldn't be more kind."

Wang Jiao also knew that her aunt was kind, but it was about her son's future, how would she choose.

Wang Jiao: "Thank you cousin for your comfort."

Zhu Xiu'er was not good at handling these things, so she said a few more words and left.

This time Wang Jiao came here with a maid named Liuxiang who served her personally.

Liuxiang, as a personal servant girl, naturally knew more, and when she saw Miss Biao go out, she came in.

"Miss, my servant, I have inquired about it. There are not many maidservants in the mansion now. It is quite interesting to mention that Young Master Biao has two housemates, but they have already been sent away. I don't know where they have been sold. "

Wang Jiao didn't show a bit of worry on this matter: "You did a good job. I'm living under the fence. Naturally, I want to know the situation in the house clearly, so as not to offend others. I will pay more attention to it in the future. My aunt is going to sell slaves from my mother-in-law tomorrow." Come back, you have a sweet mouth, and have a good relationship with them."

Liuxiang: "Yes, the servant understands."

As the name suggests, Wang Jiao looks delicate and soft, which can arouse a man's desire to protect, and looks harmless.

Zhu Taoyuan didn't meet many women when he was in his hometown, and he was good at studying, and Wang Jiao also wanted to jump in front of him, so Yuanchen also had indescribable feelings for Wang Jiao, his cousin.

Zhu Tao also looked at his cousin Wang Jiao today, she looks very manly, but sorry, he can't pass the test in his heart.

Zhu Tao's parents were also discussing their son's marriage. To be honest, the reason why Wang brought Wang Jiao here was because of her natal family's entrustment, and because she really wanted this niece to be her daughter-in-law.

As a daughter of the royal family, now that her son has achieved success, she naturally hopes to help her natal family.

And marriage is the best way.

In the evening, Wang said to Zhu Jingjing: "Tao'er is growing up too, and there are several children around his age. His marriage should also be raised in the agenda."

Zhu Jingjing understood what his wife meant, and had no objections before coming here, but he also thought a lot along the way, his son is now promising, let him marry a white cousin, not to mention what he can bring to Tao'er, the key is that his vision is limited , he was afraid that such a marriage would hold his son back.

Zhu Jingjing sighed: "I understand what you mean, but there's no need to rush this matter, let's see what Tao'er himself thinks! Jiao'er's child is also good, but after all, his status is a bit high. In the capital, it is not impossible for local parents and officials to marry such a wife, but the son is capable and has settled down in the capital, so how does that child Jiaoer move around in the capital?"

After hearing what her husband said, on the one hand, she felt wronged for her niece, and on the other hand, she felt that she was right. She also wanted the best for her son.
