Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

Chapter 274 I Will Teach My Daughter-in-Law

He Shanqiao pretended to be calm and said, "I told you not to worry about this. I know my own limitations."

Xue Qingguo said, "Don't I want you to call me brother-in-law?"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard someone calling him outside the door. The voice sounded familiar. He walked out and saw it was Zhou Haoyu.

Xue Qingguo said, "Zhou Haoyu! Why is it you? When did you come back?"

Zhou Haoyu is the legitimate son of Zhou Xinan, that is, the son of the former Prince Consort Zhou and Mrs. Wenshan, and now his name is changed to Luo Zizhen.

Luo Zizhen came in and sat on the bed and said, "I just came back a few days ago. From now on, I will no longer be called Zhou Haoyu. I will be called Luo Zizhen."

Xue Qingguo stared at him, and seeing that he didn't look embarrassed or awkward, he asked, "Are you also studying at Donglin Academy? I heard you want to be a prince consort, so why bother studying then? When you're old enough, get married and you won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life."

Luo Zizhen said, "You will never have to worry about food and drink in your life, so why do you come to study? I came to you to ask you to help me find a solution. I don't want to be a prince consort. My father is a prince consort, and he wants me to be a prince consort."

Xue Qingguo laughed, "So what? Anyway, your Zhou family is the family of the prince consort. I want to be a prince consort, but they don't look down on me."

Luo Zizhen said, "You said that. Then I'll tell Mr. Nie this. Let's switch places. You can be the consort, and I can be Mr. Nie's son-in-law."

He stood up and tried to leave, but Xue Qingguo was so frightened that he quickly pulled him back and slapped himself again. "I just said that casually. I meant to say that you are more capable than me. I'm telling you, don't say that casually. If you tell anyone, I'll be angry with you."

Luo Zizhen sat back and chuckled, "If you can't let me do it, then you can think of a way for me."

"What can I do? The imperial court has issued an order. If you disagree, wouldn't that be disobeying the order? Unless Princess Qingyang doesn't want to, and she goes to tell the emperor."

Luo Zizhen looked He Shanqiao up and down, "Are you the He family's elder brother? Fourth brother Xue doesn't want to play with us anymore after he met you."

He Shanqiao stood up and saluted, "I am He Shanqiao"

Xue Qingguo patted Luo Zizhen on the shoulder and said, "You are so unreasonable! You even let your brother salute you first." Only then did Luo Zizhen stand up and salute.

"Who is He Shankun to you? I just looked and it seems that I live in the same room with He Shankun."

Xue Qingguo smiled and said, "We're family. He Shankun is He Shanqiao's cousin. He passed the exam after the New Year. What a coincidence! I have to tell you, you can't affect your brother He's studies. If you want to play, come find me. No, I have to study hard in the future too. I want to pass the exam for a scholar."

Luo Zizhen sniffed, "You want to take the exam for the scholar? Aren't you the one who has the most headaches studying? Even if I pass, you may not be able to pass. You are trying to please your future father-in-law."

He laughed after he finished speaking.

Xue Qingguo said anxiously, "I've been studying hard for a long time. If you don't believe me, ask Shanqiao. I started studying hard after I met Shanqiao. Besides, what's wrong with me trying to curry favor with my father-in-law? Why don't you try to curry favor with your father-in-law?"

After saying that, he slapped his mouth again. Luo Zizheng's father-in-law was the late emperor, who was no longer alive. If he wanted to curry favor with someone, he should curry favor with his brother-in-law, the emperor.

Luo Zizhen said with a dark face: "How dare you say anything? I don't care."

Xue Qingguo said in his heart, you little brat still want to teach me a lesson?

Luo Zizhen was less than fourteen years old and always followed them. They ignored him, and many families looked down on the Zhou family. However, Luo Zizhen was sweet-mouthed, good at speaking, and had good tact, so they gradually accepted him.

He Shanqiao found an excuse to go out, leaving the two of them talking in the room.

Xue Qingguo asked, "Where have you been playing these past few months?"

Luo Zizhen was half lying on the head of the bed. "First I went back to the Luo family's ancestral home, then went to Suzhou and Hangzhou. I stayed there until the New Year. When it comes to eating, drinking and having fun, Suzhou and Hangzhou are better than Beijing."

Xue Qingguo enviously said, "I wish I could go there once. You've been out several times at such a young age."

Luo Zizhen spread his hands and said, "I don't want to either, but my mother said that I should travel more while I'm young, because I won't have the chance to come out after I get married."

He knew his own life story, but he didn't know it when he was young and thought he was his eldest son. It was not until he was five or six years old that he found out when his cousins ​​had a fight with him.

He didn't dare to ask his aunt, so he secretly asked his aunt who had been taking care of him.

His aunt told him, "Remember, you are your father's legitimate son, the eldest daughter's biological child. If anyone says you're not, you can beat them up. Don't be afraid. If you're weak and incompetent, your mother will look down on you. Your future depends on your mother, not your father. Don't pay any attention to those people in the Zhou family."

He understood that his stepmother was the eldest daughter and he was born out of wedlock, but in public he was a legitimate child.

He understood the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children when he was five or six years old.

He wouldn't be stupid enough to make a fuss.

Fortunately, his stepmother never cared whether he knew or not. She was neither too affectionate nor cold to him. She also did not interfere with his relationship with his biological mother. After all, his biological mother was his stepmother's maid. Although she later became his father's concubine, she still followed his stepmother.

Now he was adopted by the Luo family, and his mother became his father's cousin. His mother told him that this way his father would be more protective of him.

Although Luo Zizhen is young, he has long known that the eldest daughter likes his current mother. This is the elders' business and it is not his place to say anything.

Anyway, he won't suffer any loss.

No matter whether outsiders laughed at him or not, his father had been a laughing stock in the capital since he married a rich woman.

However, he really didn't want to marry Princess Qingyang. It had nothing to do with the princess herself. He knew from the eldest lady that both the Queen Mother and the Emperor disliked Concubine Jiang. If he married Princess Qingyang, who was born to Concubine Jiang, he would be rejected by the Emperor.

Miss Wenshan returned to Beijing and heard that Luo Zi was really going to be the prince consort. After resting for two days, she went to the palace to ask what was going on.

Queen Mother Wang couldn't say that the Emperor had decided on this marriage. She said, "Qingyang is two years younger than Luo Zizhen. Everyone knows Luo Zizhen's background. Who would be willing to marry such a young lady?"

It is difficult for Wenshan to say that both the Queen Mother and the Emperor disliked Concubine Jiang, and of course they would not like Princess Qingyang, who was born to her.

"I just don't like Concubine Jiang. Qingyang, the child she gave birth to, doesn't look anything special now. Who knows if he will become like his biological mother in the future."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Didn't you say you can't tell now? When she becomes your daughter-in-law in the future, won't she be what you teach her to be? Besides, the Emperor only has two sisters. Qingyang is one year younger than the Emperor. They have been close since childhood, so Qingyang won't be at a disadvantage in the future."

Wenshan University heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.

The marriage has been decided. No matter how willful she is, she will not go against her nephew who is the emperor.

She said with a smile: "Then I will take Qingyang out more often in the future. You can open your eyes or close them. I will teach my daughter-in-law."

The Queen Mother said, "As you wish."
