The word "owe" made Xiao Zhen feel bad. This was something she should have been responsible for, but Zi Ran was also involved.

Thinking of what the late emperor said to him before he died, they would not see each other in the next life. If there is an afterlife, can they really not see each other? Between the two of them, who owes whom?

Debts from one life must be repaid in this life. Perhaps only in this way can the two of them not meet each other in the next life.

The late winter rain is so cold that people shiver.

Except for that time when he entered the palace, Xiao Zhen never entered the palace again. Instead, he spent time at home with the children and occasionally listened to the gossip brought back by Xi Ya.

After the Queen's edict was issued, the palace sent two aunts to the Lu Mansion to teach Lu Xinyao some palace rules. Xinyao was a sensible and well-behaved child. As long as her grandma taught her, she would study it seriously.

In the evening, Xiao Zhen will spend an hour teaching his daughter some basic defense martial arts. He didn't get along with his daughter much before, but now that he has gotten along with her, he feels more and more that this second daughter's temperament is too quiet, so quiet that sometimes he can't even feel it.

to her existence.

After Lu Xinyou gave birth to the baby, she would go back to her parents' home every few days to see Xiao Zhen and the Liu family. The eldest daughter made Xiao Zhen the most at ease. She watched Yu'er grow up, watched him obtain fame, and watched

He has been waiting for Xinyou for several years, and now they are very much in love with each other.

The younger son Han Qiu's temperament combines Xinyou's cheerfulness with Xinyao's quietness. As he grows older, his business acumen gradually becomes apparent. No wonder the eldest brother of the Han family actually said that he should take over the Han family's business.

The three children cannot be said to be particularly outstanding, but compared with children from other families, they are much better.

Xiao Zhen was thinking about a question recently. Is it because Ziran, a smart person, gave birth to children with such low intelligence because of marrying her? Of course, she will never have any answer to this question. In short,

If you say that, the family will be happy and safe together.

Han Ziran has always been busy, always leaving early and coming back late.

The day before the Chinese New Year, he suddenly developed a high fever, which frightened everyone. After all, Han Ziran had not had any minor illnesses or pains in recent years, not to mention fever.

When Xiao Zhen wiped Zi Ran's face while he was sleeping, he noticed that there were some gray hairs on his temples. Although his face was still young, judging from the gray hair, they were already getting older.

Xiao Zhen walked to the bronze mirror and looked at his hair. He usually didn't pay attention when combing it, but now if he looked carefully, he would find a few white hairs in his black hair from time to time.

After the little miracle doctor came and prescribed medicine, he said angrily: "This Han Ziran still thinks he is a young man? When you reach middle age, you must rest no matter how busy you are. If there is any problem with your body in the future, I can't do anything about it. Sister

, what are you doing?"

The little miracle doctor saw his sister suddenly coming over and looking for something on his head.

"I'm looking for your white hair."

Little miracle doctor: "..."

"You said we are only a few years apart, so why is your hair so black? After searching for a long time, I didn't even find a single white hair."

The little miracle doctor: "..." He took out a bottle of pills from the medicine box and placed it on the table.

"After taking this medicine, will there be no gray hair?" Xiao Zhen said with joy on his face.

The little miracle doctor rolled his eyes: "Birth, aging, illness and death are normal. People will naturally have gray hair as they get older. This is my brother-in-law's medicine to cure cold evil."

"Okay." Xiao Zhen looked a little disappointed.

The little miracle doctor looked at his sister strangely: "Sister, you didn't seem to pay much attention to appearance before. Why do you care so much about a few white hairs?"

"It doesn't matter to me, I just want your brother-in-law not to be gray so early." Xiao Zhen looked at his face, although he still had a high fever, but his face had improved a lot.

"Even if there is a way to change the natural white hair back, it would be contrary to nature and not beneficial to the body." The little miracle doctor picked up the medicine box and left.

"Wanglin, do you want to move back here?" Xiao Zhen stopped him: "Now you live there alone, don't you feel lonely?"

"Sister," Cai Wanglin looked at Xiao Zhen and said, "I want to go out for a trip, maybe three to five years, maybe ten years."

The little miracle doctor often goes out to practice medicine and treat diseases, but in the past, it only lasted for one or two years at most, but now it takes three to five years or even ten years: "Why does it take so long?"

"I have stayed here for nearly two years, and it's time to go out for a walk."

"Ten years are too long. By the time you come back, my hair will probably be all white." Xiao Zhen was not happy to see Lin out for so long, and she didn't know if it was her misunderstanding. She always felt that the little miracle doctor's expression was a bit a bit off

lonely.

Cai Wanglin laughed: "It doesn't matter whether your hair is white or not, as long as you are still alive."

"You brat, are you cursing your sister?" She said and was about to hit him.

Cai Wanglin ran out quickly.

In the middle of the night, Ziran's fever subsided, but he was still very weak. Xiao Zhen fed him a bowl of white porridge before he fell asleep.

Ziran's illness took him half a month to get better. Later, he simply left all court affairs to Han Yu and the others.

During this period, the emperor gave precious medicines from time to time.

During the Chinese New Year.

The Lu family was very lively. The eldest brother, sister-in-law, Han Yu, Xin You, Wu Yin, Zhao Jie, Xiang'er, Xi Ya, and their children all came back, and three tables were opened before everyone could sit down.

Xiao Zhen took out hundreds of New Year's packages alone.

After dinner, everyone sat together, chatted, and drank tea. It was not until the end of the New Year's Eve that everyone went back to their respective houses and homes.

At night, Xiao Zhen and Han Ziran hugged each other and fell asleep, listening to the sound of firecrackers coming from outside from time to time.

That night, Xiao Zhen had a very strange dream. There seemed to be Si Mo in the dream, and she was very young at the time. She was still farming in her uncle's house and was not a soldier. Then there was a little boy of six or seven years old.

He walked up to her and looked at her coldly.

She was confused by his look: "Who are you?"

Xiao Simo didn't answer, but looked at her with disgust.

Xiao Zhen was awakened by such a look. However, as soon as he woke up, he forgot the content of the dream.

At this time, it was already three poles high in the sun.

"It seems that the weather is good this year." Xiao Zhen looked at the sunlight shining through the window for a while, then remembered the dream he had last night, and murmured, "It's strange, what did you dream about last night? I still remember how

Did you forget it when you opened your eyes?"

At this time, the door of the room suddenly opened, and his son Huang Qiu ran in and said excitedly: "Mom, the imperial edict is here."

"Imperial decree?"

Huang Qiu nodded like a green onion: "My father has been appointed as the prime minister."

"What?" Xiao Zhen's eyes moved and he quickly opened the quilt and got up.

I hurriedly put on my clothes and went to the front hall, where I saw the father-in-law who announced the decree.

When Xiao Zhen arrived, everyone in the family knelt down to receive the order.

It was expected that Ziran would become prime minister, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon. It was less than a year later.

Han Ziran received the imperial edict with a normal expression. The eldest brother of the Han family had already prepared a large gift for the father-in-law who announced the edict, and happily took his father-in-law to drink tea.

Mrs. Liu happily wiped away her tears and said, "Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Ziran has become the prime minister of our big man. I have to cook a table of good food tonight. Come on, Xiang'er, let's buy some food."

Let’s go.”

Fang Xiang'er was still in a daze. In fact, she had been a little dazed these past few days, just because Zhao Jie told her the past of her sister and brother-in-law a few days ago. She was dumbfounded when she heard it. How in the world could it be

There will be such twists and turns and bizarre things.

Today, my brother-in-law suddenly turned into the prime minister again. This is simply more exciting than a storyteller.

"Xiang'er? What are you doing? Let's go." Ms. Liu touched Fang Xiang'er lightly.

Fang Xiang'er came back to her senses and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, cook a table of delicious dishes." Then she left with Mrs. Liu.

"Brother-in-law, how many years do you plan to be the prime minister this time?" Wu Yin joked.

"It has to be longer than last time, right?" Zhao Jie said with a smile.

Xiao Zhen had already told them his plans, so they were always prepared to leave, not to prepare for Han Ziran to become an official.

"Aren't you busy at the shop?" Xiao Zhen raised his eyebrows and looked at them: "Are you still in the mood to joke around here?"

"Sister, this year is the first day of the Lunar New Year." Zhao Jie shouted strangely.

"You have to speak on the first day of the new year." Xiao Zhen said and drove them out.

Xi Ya pursed her lips and smiled, and followed her out.

For a moment, only Xiao Zhen and Han Ziran were left in the room.

"My husband has met the Prime Minister's wife." Han Ziran bowed to Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen: "..." He said with a smile: "How can the Prime Minister's wife be as resounding as the Emperor's mother-in-law?"

Han Ziran thought for a while: "That's true."

The two of them left the lobby and walked towards their own courtyard. The servants they met along the way happily saluted Han Ziran: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister."

"Everyone is very happy that you have been promoted to prime minister. So am I." Xiao Zhen raised his head and looked at him with a smile.

"What makes you happy?"

"It feels like a dream to see you put on the prime minister's uniform again."
