The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Zhou Shuren said indifferently: “You heard right, Mingyun entered the clan school after the spring. By the way, not only Mingyun, but also your two younger brothers and Rong Chuan will go to the clan school.”

Boss Zhou was shocked. Dad was so excited when he went out. The family never communicated with the clan.

The Zhou family in Shiliba Village is the most famous for its clan, and the Zhou family has inherited it for a long time. Even if some books are lost, there are some books in the collection. This is the most precious place.

Moreover, the Zhou family has a lot of rules, and the quality of teaching is good. They are not people with the surname Zhou. Other surnames in the village have to pay high sums of money for repair, and they have to be of good character, so as not to spoil the children of the Zhou family.

Back then, when my father was angry, he had a pimple in his heart, and his younger brothers didn’t go to school, but they were all sent to well-known private schools.

No matter what the boss was thinking, Zhou Shuren continued: “Tomorrow you will be busy with you. The day after tomorrow, I will take you and Mingyun to the patriarch and a few elders’ houses. You have some ideas.”

Boss Zhou couldn’t understand what Dad was thinking. He was not very smart and didn’t want to think about it. Dad said what he said and what he did. “Got it.”

Having said everything that needs to be said, Zhou Shuren signaled that the eldest couple could leave.

Boss Zhou watched his father pour tea for his mother, and the corners of his mouth twitched. No wonder his father warned them, don’t come to the main room if there is no big deal, and look at the father who is serving her mother, no eye to see, no eye to see!

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the eldest couple not only went to the county by themselves, but also brought their two sons with them. Zhulan was worried that the children would suffer, but the two grandsons were so excited that Zhulan did not stop her.

Zhulan took a look at her little grandson, and had to admire the second child’s ability to take care of others. Zhao’s family and the child were well taken care of.

Zhulan returned to the main room, saw Zhou Shuren drinking tea leisurely, poured herself a cup and said, “Now that we have money in hand, when are we going to buy a shop?”

Zhou Shuren had long planned, “I will go to Pingzhou to buy a shop and a house after the new year. The house is to prepare for the scientific examination. The rent of the shop in Pingzhou is high, and it is convenient to change hands in the future.”

Zhulan was excited, “I’ll go after the new year too!”

Zhou Shuren smiled, “Okay, let’s go together.”

Zhulan counted the money in her hand, “Are the shops and houses in Pingzhou expensive? We need to keep some money in our hands. Is only one thousand taels enough for us?”

Zhou Shuren, “Don’t worry, I’ve already inquired about it. Good shops have already been divided up, and you can buy third-class shops. The price is not too expensive. Pingzhou is not as expensive as Jiangnan’s house price. That’s enough, and a house in a good location won’t be too expensive.”

Zhou Shuren wanted to buy a house with two entrances. The family has a large population, and one entrance is really not enough. Thinking that in ancient times, he would also have real estate soon, Zhulan said happily: “You will become an official in the future. , we are not in vain, so we don’t have to be cautious, I will definitely buy more property.”

Speaking of this, Zhulan is worried again, many of the sons in the family are in debt!

Zhou Shuren smiled, he liked Zhulan to think about his family, “Yes.”

At noon, Zhulan made lunch. Zhulan followed Mrs. Li in the kitchen for a few months. Her culinary talent was still not lit, but she had improved. At least she was able to make soup. Although the soup she made was not very tasty, the steamed buns in the morning and a pot of soup were enough.

It was getting dark in the afternoon, and the eldest couple came back with their children. The big and small ones bought a lot of things. When the things were moved back to the house, the eldest couple came to the main room with boxes.

Li opened the box to please, “Mother, this is the silver hairpin that I and the boss chose for you. I want two taels of silver, do you like it, mother?”

The two of them also wanted to honor their father, but unfortunately my father didn’t smoke, and they had a pen and ink at home. After thinking about it, it would be better to spend all the money of filial piety on my mother. My father-in-law might be happier. Seeing my father’s gentle expression, Mrs. Li knew that filial piety was right.

Zhulan glanced at Mrs. Li, two taels of silver were hard enough to bite, not to mention that silver hairpins carved with wax plums are really rare, Zhulan took it in her hand and thanked her, “You two have bothered, my mother likes it. “

Li’s heart was overjoyed, and the pain was much less. “Mother likes it. Oh, I’m stupid, no younger siblings can make clothes, so I can only spend more money to honor my mother.”

Bamboo Orchid, “…”

Li’s cleverness is used to step on Zhao’s daily.
