Emperor Rules Family while I Rule the Country

After Zhou Leping finished reading the blood letter, he was silent for a long time. The death of Madam Wang wasn't entirely because of that, he had lost a leg, and his movements were inconvenient. In the future, people would have to take care of him from the side.

Xiao Wan had followed him to take care of him for the rest of his life, he didn't want to implicate his daughter, so he just let his wife take care of him.

Not only was she cowardly, she was even less responsible. Xiao Wan was only five years old, and finally managed to get his father to reunite with his family. However, in the blink of an eye, both his parents were gone, and she was an orphan.

She ordered her men to bury Zhou Zheng together with Madam Wang, and keep him in his room alone for a day. In the evening, she went to Zhu Guanliang's place to find Xiao Wan, but no matter what, she had to tell her the truth.

Xiao Wan slept at Zhu Guanliang's place in the afternoon, and when it was night, she was in good spirits. Zhu Guanliang threw a handful of herbs for her to play with, and when she went out to collect the dried herbs, she saw Zhou Leping standing at the door, waving at her.

"Why didn't you come in?"

"Xiao Wan... "Are you all right here?" She had been brewing all day and still didn't know how to tell a five-year-old about it.

"It's not bad, I just miss my mother a little." He said, "It's better if you tell her as soon as possible. She's still young, so she'll be sad for a while. In a few days, she'll be fine."

"Zhou Zheng also committed suicide in the Sky Prison, she..."

Zhu Guanliang turned around to take a look at the room, his eyebrows knitted, "Then I'll go speak with you?"

Zhou Leping hurriedly nodded his head, "That's fine too, I... I really don't know how to tactfully tell her that she's close to you and that it's best if you tell her that General's Estate will be her home in the future. If you feel uncomfortable, you can just hug her and cry for a while. "

Zhou Leping put down the things in his hands and simply turned around to return. Zhou Leping was anxiously waiting in the courtyard, but before long, a young and clear cry came from inside the room.

The sound was heart-wrenching and heartbreaking. She paced back and forth, her footsteps becoming more and more urgent as she cried.

However, a child was still a child. After not crying for a while, he was already tired of crying. He could not move his crying and could only lean on Zhu Guanliang's shoulder and sob, "Mother … Mom and Dad both … You won't be able to come back? "

Zhu Guanliang didn't have any experience bringing children, and he didn't really like children either. But he didn't know why this child was so sticky to him, and seeing how sad she was crying, he could only allow her to rub his nose, waiting for her to calm down, then gently pat her back, "From now on, General's Estate is your home."

Xiao Wan burped from crying, "But... I want... "Mother …"

"Mother and Father are watching you from the sky."

"I don't want them in the sky. I want them by my side."

Although Xiao Wan was sticking close to him, it was actually very quiet. Most of the time, if he gave her a handful of winnings, she would be able to quietly play with it for a long time without his worry.

As a result, he was unable to understand the difficulties of bringing a child, much less what to do in order to coax the child. For a moment of silence, he was speechless.

Zhou Leping gradually stopped crying when he heard it, and carefully walked in, upon entering the door, he saw Xiao Wan with red eyes lying on Zhu Guanliang's body, and quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Wan."

Xiao Wan looked at her listlessly as tears started to flow again.

Zhou Leping had a headache, he braced himself and walked forward: "Xiao Wan will not cry, from now on, this will be your home, don't you like Dr Zhu? In the future, you will be able to live with the Dr Zhu everyday if you stay here. Although he couldn't see his parents … But there are a lot of people playing with you. "

Xiao Wan curled his lips, his expression extremely aggrieved, "Why must Father and Mother die?"

Zhou Leping could not answer this question.

Just as she was thinking about how to change the topic, Zhu Guanliang suddenly opened her mouth to help her out, "People will die, but sooner or later, we will also die. You will also die, it's not scary at all.

Xiao Wan obviously could not understand such a profound and straightforward explanation. He blinked his eyes, and his tears were stuck in his eyes as they tottered and swayed. He must be thinking.

Zhou Leping called in a servant from outside and instructed, "Clean up a room beside my bedroom for Xiao Wan. Also, continue with the orders, Xiao Wan will be treated like the Fourth Miss of the Residence."

The attendant agreed, then he busied himself with preparing.

Xiao Wan didn't understand the meaning behind Zhu Guanliang's words even after he thought about it. In the end, he was about to fall asleep as he laid on Zhu Guanliang's shoulder and slowly closed his eyes.

Zhu Guanliang gently placed her on the bed and lowered his head to look at his shoulder which was drenched and sticky. He disdainfully frowned as he turned around and went to the cupboard to take out a new set of clothes to change into.

Zhou Leping tactfully turned around, "It's all your fault today. Xiao Wan could tell that she really liked you.

Before Zhou Leping could wait for him to reply, he was about to say his goodbyes. Suddenly, his entire body stiffened and his eyes widened, as he stared dumbfoundedly in front of him.

"Xiao Wan needs comfort. The general needs it too."

Zhu Guanliang hugged her from behind, and held onto her wrist tightly as he hugged her in his embrace. He slightly bent his waist behind her, and rested his chin on her shoulder.

Zhou Leping's mind was blank, in that moment, whatever reason, or reaction, they all grew wings and flew out from the head. She was stunned, then stunned, and finally she grabbed onto a strand of consciousness and gritted her teeth as she struggled, "What is it!? "Let go!"

"The general's eyes are red as if Xiao Wan had howled for two hours. You must be sad about the death of Zhou Zheng and Madam Wang, right?"

"I'm not crying, release me!"

Her face went from red all the way to her neck, causing Zhou Leping to struggle for a while. He realised that his strength was surprisingly strong, after struggling for a long time, he was still able to pull himself together with no results.

"It's not shameful at all to cry, why don't you admit it?" He actually managed to reach out a hand to rub her head. "The general is also a woman. Does it comfort me to hold you like this?"

Zhou Leping's face was burning red, she grinded her teeth and said, "No, I don't feel comforted at all, let me say it one last time, if you don't let go, I'll disarm you!"

Zhu Guanliang laughed, and when he laughed, his hot breath and his body emitted a very refreshing fragrance, which entered Zhou Leping's nose.

Zhou Leping was instantly like an exploding cat, with a burst of force, he broke free, grabbed onto one of his arms, twisted it with force, and pushed him onto the table, "Did I treat you too well, that's why you dare to be so presumptuous towards me!"
