When Zhou Fan returned to the side courtyard, there were already many people, sitting around the table on which there was already food and drink.
Zhou Fan looked at Qing Yuwei sitting next to his mother, he was seen trying to familiarize himself with the others.
Everyone asked, who was the beautiful girl sitting next to Zhou Qian, but no one dared to start the question.
"Fifth elder, who's the girl next to your wife?" The third elder sitting beside Zhou Hu ventured to ask.
Zhou Hu spontaneously turned his head towards his wife, and the girl the third elder meant.
"He is ... " As he was about to reply, Zhou Qian who was acting as the host first opened his voice.
"You must be wondering who this beautiful girl is?" said Zhou Qian while glancing at Qing Yuwei.
The girl smiled back at the glance of her mother-in-law.
"He is Qing Yuwei, my son-in-law." Zhou Qian said with excitement.
Hearing the surname of the girl called Zhou Qian's son-in-law, some people fell silent, then hesitantly they asked. "Is this lady from the Qing Clan?"
"Yes, my son-in-law is from the Qing Clan. Not only that, my son-in-law is the elder's son there." Zhou Qian replied proudly.
The Qing Clan was a large Clan in White Chalk City, compared to the Zhou Clan, in a far more distinguished position.
"Gee... Happy fifth elder, your son has good eyes."
"Congratulations, is this banquet indeed held to welcome your son-in-law, fifth elder?"
Praise and congratulations came from the mouths of some of the elders and those who were there.
"Well... That is," Zhou Hu said twitching his shoulders.
If they, especially Zhou Qian, knew that his first son-in-law was the emperor's daughter, they might not know how else to show expression.
"So, when are you getting married?" Zhou Fei deliberately raised his voice, seeing Zhou Fan walking towards them.
Zhou Fan sat down without answering the question Zhou Fei had put out, making the Zhou Clan Patriarch twitch his lips.
"Damn it... The reason he ignored my question," Zhou Fei muttered inwardly with an annoyed face.
"What did the Patriarch say, when are you getting married, Fan'er?" Zhou Hu turned to look at his son.
Zhou Fan again did not reply, he did not want to refuse, but he had to look for Wei Guanlin first.
Qing Yuwei simply lowered her head, talking about marriage made it a little strange. It's a shame to mix into one.
However, he was aware that Zhou Fan had to overtake Wei Guanlin to the Shi Empire. Zhou Fan promised her he would marry her once she returned to the Wei Empire, of course with Wei Guanlin.
"You don't discuss marriage, you make my son-in-law uncomfortable with your parents' behavior" Zhou Qian said to her husband.
"It's better to finish this meal, before it gets colder and tasteless" Zhou Qian added.
The simple banquet was pleasant, did not feel all the food on the table had ludes left.
....
Nightfall...
"Wei'er you sleep in mom's room, because I actually want to have a daughter, but the one that comes out is the boy." Zhou Qian invited Qing Yuwei to room with him.
Qing Yuwei was tickled amused at Zhou Qian's words, the middle-aged woman already considered her like her own daughter.
"Qian'er, can you tell me to sleep alone?" said Zhou Hu.
"Wei'er, didn't you say you wanted to be with Fan'er?" Zhou Hu blinked his eyes, trying to code his daughter-in-law.
"Ah dad... You are the best!" shou Fan cried inwardly.
Zhou Qian stared intently at his son, who was stared at quickly turning his face away.
"What's my fault, I didn't even say a word..," Zhou Fan said in a complaining tone.
Zhou Qian then turned towards her husband. "You sleep in your son's room, you can hug each other if you need to."
Hearing Zhou Qian's words, Zhou Hu and Zhou Fan glanced at each other, then both of them sighed in disdain.
"Screams... I'd rather sleep alone than with you, father." Zhou Fan left intending to enter his room.
The phuft...
Zhou Qian and Qing Yuwei laughed in satisfaction, both of them tos while trying to stop laughing.
...
Days changed weeks and even months, it had not been more than a month since Zhou Fan had returned to the Black Stone City.
Phuahs...
"You're going again?" zhou Qian said in surprise, even the food in his mouth accidentally gushed out toward Zhou Hu's face which was right across from him.
Zhou Hu's face was a little bad, but the perpetrator seemed to be unconcerned.
"You've only been back a month and you're leaving again?" zhou Qian asked as he took a glass of water.
"Heem.. I will leave tomorrow," Zhou Fan replied.
The phuft....
Again Zhou Qian was startled, Zhou Hu who was right in front of his wife had to willingly make his face the target for the second time.
As before, Zhou Qian did not show his guilty face, he just kept asking the same question as when Zhou Fan was about to leave earlier.
Brak!
Zhou Hu kicked the table until he made the other three look at him.
"What is this about you?" zhou Qian asked with a fierce face.
Zhou Hu's guts suddenly shrieked, his wife was truly terrible when angry.
"I-that's an insect" Zhou Hu said, shaking his hands as if he was cleaning the insects on the table, not daring to look at his wife.
"In addition to adventuring, I also picked up Lin'er's mother, she must be waiting for me there." Zhou Fan tried to convince his mother by carrying the name Wei Guanlin.
"Lin'er?" asked Zhou Qian.
Zhou Fan nodded confidently.
Zhou Qian was silent for quite some time, he also missed Wei Guanlin who had already accompanied him while he was at the residence.
"What about Wei'er?" zhou Qian asked as he glanced at the daughter-in-law who was beside him.
"I can't let him come with me, it would be very dangerous and would threaten his safety." Zhou Fan looked at the two women before him.
Hearing Zhou Fan's reply, tucked the disappointment in Qing Yuwei's heart, but he tried to understand Zhou Fan's predicament.
"I can return to the Qing Clan," Qing Yuwei exclaimed with a smile, but did not close the sadness in his face.
"You're in the Zhou Clan alone, mother was very lonely when Fan'er left ... That's why mom says it's better to have a daughter, unlike her who always leaves." Zhou Qian said as he glanced at Zhou Fan cynically.
Huft...
Zhou Fan could only waste a sigh of resignation seeing his mother's favoritism towards him.
.
.
.
Unlike the time of his departure for the first time that required a long preparation, Zhou Fan looked experienced, he did not do much preparation, just a few clothes.
In Zhou Fan's storage ring his gold coins were left a little, he handed over his wealth of gold coins to the Zhou Clan, he left only a few hundred thousand gold coins.
Zhou Fan lay with his hands as a pillow, he imagined how Wei Guanlin's expression would be when he met her.
Tok tok...
Zhou Fan opened the door of the room which was knocked from outside. And saw the woman standing there.
"What's up, Wei'er?"
