Chapter 169
After Zhou Ran came out of Guangtai Building, she originally wanted to go shopping, but after looking at the sun outside, she decided to go home and continue embroidering the double-sided three-different embroidery.
In the following days, the weather in Beijing became hotter day by day, and Zhou Ran almost never went out again.
On June 16, Zhou Ran received a reply from Zhang and others.
Zhang and others are preparing to come to the capital.
After Ye Ximing won the top prize, he had already sent a letter to his family, hoping to bring his family to Beijing for a reunion.
However, it took a lot of time for this letter to come and go, and the reply from Zhang and the others did not arrive until today.
In the evening, Ye Ximing came back and Zhou Ran told him the good news.
Zhou Ran really missed Zhang and the others.
Ye Ximing also missed his parents. He was happy to hear the news, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried when he thought about the weather, which was getting hotter every day.
I'm afraid it will take a lot of pain to travel in this kind of weather.
Zhou Ran comforted him and said: "Although the weather is a little hot now, it's still cool in the morning and night. Anyway, there's no need to rush when you come to the capital. Why don't you write to them and ask them to go on their way in the morning and at night. It's hottest at noon. Just find a place to rest.”
Since Zhang and the others had already said they were coming, if they directly wrote to Zhang and the others to wait until autumn cools down before setting out on their journey, I'm afraid it would make them think too much.
Ye Ximing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll write to them soon."
The couple discussed for a while how to arrange the house after Mrs. Zhang and the others arrived. Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing did not live in the main house in the yard, and it had been reserved for Mrs. Zhang and Father Ye. Father Ye must live in the main house.
In addition to the big girls and others, the few houses in the west wing also have embroidery rooms and so on.
As for the eldest brother and the second brother, they can live with them in the two empty rooms in the east wing.
By then the courtyard will be almost full.
Thinking of the big family, Zhou Ran suddenly felt that the yard was a bit small.
But that's all she can do for the time being, she can't touch the money she has now.
At this time, in the yard of Ye's family in Xiyao Village, Linwei County, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Chen were packing their things, while Mrs. Zhang was talking to the neighbors who came to the door.
Aunt Hua, who had always had a good relationship with Mrs. Zhang, looked at the smile on Mrs. Zhang's face and said with envy: "You are so lucky. We have never even been to Fucheng in our lives, and you are going to Beijing."
A smile spread across Zhang's face, "I never thought I would be so lucky."
"You have gone to the capital and will not come back, right?" Aunt Liu said with some reluctance: "I don't know if I will see you again in this life."
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said: "Who said I won't come back? If I don't go to the capital to have a look, I will definitely come back later."
She and Father Ye couldn't even get used to staying in the county town, so how could they stay in the capital forever.
When her son grows up, everyone has their own plans and plans, but she and Father Ye just want to stay in Xiyao Village and guard this place for the rest of their lives.
There was a woman on the side who was greedy for Zhang's good fortune. After hearing what Zhang said, she couldn't help but said: "Why are you coming back? Isn't it good to be a noble lady in the capital? Why are you going back to this poor country?" Zhang looked at it The woman who spoke glanced at her and said calmly: "I just like to go back to the village."
Aunt Hua smiled at the side and said: "It's good to go back to the village. We have lived in this village for almost a lifetime. It is more comfortable to stay in the village."
Aunt Liu heard this and nodded in agreement: "Who says it's not the case?"
The topic passed like this, and then someone suddenly mentioned Cao Bingwen.
"Hey, have you heard that something happened to the family of the scholar named Cao who won the Jinshi along with your Sanlang?"
Cao Bingwen had been to Ye's house before, and Mrs. Zhang also knew that he had a good relationship with Ye Ximing. After hearing this, she couldn't help but asked with concern: "What happened to their family?"
"I heard that his wife is gone."
"Ah!" Someone exclaimed and said regretfully: "Then his wife is too unlucky, right? She finally managed to become a Jinshi in Xianggong High School, and she will soon become an official's wife and enjoy the blessings of an official's wife. Unexpectedly, It’s gone at this juncture.”
Hearing this, everyone present nodded in agreement: "It is indeed unlucky."
Someone else said to Mrs. Zhang: "It turns out that your Sanlang's wife is lucky."
Mrs. Zhang likes to hear people say that Zhou Ran is lucky. When she heard this, her eyes narrowed when she smiled, and she said without humility: "Who says it's not true? Our Aran is not only blessed, but also very prosperous. She married into our family, and our family has never stopped doing good things. Sanlang even passed the exam smoothly and won the first prize. She is a great contributor to our family. "
I don't know when they finished packing their things, but Chen and Li, who also came over with their children in their arms, nodded when they heard Zhang's words: "Mom is right, the third brother and sister are the lucky stars of our family."
The people around them were envious and jealous when they heard what the three of them said. Some people couldn't help but think that it would have been better if their son had married Zhou Ran, a lucky star.
The person who talked about the Cao family before saw that everyone's attention was attracted by Zhang and the others, and he was a little unhappy and said abruptly: "Don't you want to know how Scholar Cao's wife died?"
"What do you mean by this? Is it possible that there is some secret behind the death of Cao Shusheng's wife?"
"Yeah, if you know something, tell us quickly, don't make us excited."
Seeing that everyone was paying attention to him again, the man said with some pride: "Of course I know that Scholar Cao's wife was burned to death in a fire at home."
Someone was a little disappointed after hearing this: "Although it is indeed unlucky to be burned to death, there is nothing special about it."
It’s not like there were no people burned to death in these ten miles and eight villages.
Not to mention the distance, in the village next door, last year, wasn't there a family who was burned to death in their home due to carelessness, and even several rooms in the home were burned to ashes?
This is not an unusual way to die.
The man rolled his eyes at the speaker and said: "There is nothing special about being burned to death, but what is special is that when she was burned to death, she was not the only one in the house, there was also a man, and the bodies of two people were found. They were still holding each other tightly when we came out.”
Everyone was shocked by the news: "Ah, is this true or false?"
The man said dissatisfied: "Of course it's true. My natal sister married into their village. She was at the scene when the body was taken out. She told me this personally."
"This..." Some people couldn't figure it out: "Then what does Scholar Cao's wife want? Her husband-in-law has already passed the Jinshi examination, so how can she still hook up with other men?"
