Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!

Chapter 1257: Chapter 1257 Suitable for Sleeping In All Year Long

Zhou Shuren wore an impassive face, “Oh, right, the Retired Emperor now wakes up naturally. He still thinks his words are very correct: spring drowsiness, autumn fatigue, summer naps, and the sleepless three months of winter—all year round is suitable for sleeping in. The Retired Emperor might still be asleep!”

He felt that the Retired Emperor, having too much idle time, took pleasure in teasing him every day, and he emotionally thought the Retired Emperor and the Empress Dowager truly deserved each other—one wiped tears from being tormented, while the other vexed him daily.

At the Zhou residence, Zhulan had just finished breakfast and was continuing to organize textbooks, preparing to send them back to her hometown as a New Year’s gift.

It was at this time that the Empress Dowager arrived, seeing the organized textbooks for the first time, “May I take a look?”

Zhulan had never intended to hide them; she would have loved for the Empress Dowager to know. It would be even better if she could get her support, “Of course, I combined them with Western studies. Please excuse my modest efforts.”

The Empress Dowager, being a smart woman herself, found the textbooks not too difficult. As she perused, she glanced up at Mrs. Yang. Although she did not fully understand everything, the arrangements made by Mrs. Yang were very detailed and the knowledge progressed in layers. The Empress Dowager closed the book, “It’s a pity you weren’t born a man.”

Zhulan took the book the Empress Dowager handed to her, “I don’t feel it’s a pity.”

The Empress Dowager asked, “Is this for your grandchildren?”

Zhulan replied, “Although I live in the inner palace, all my knowledge comes from what the master taught. But my second son learned a lot from it and found it very useful. Although I’m a woman, I also see its great utility, so I wanted to organize it and first send it back to our clan school.”
