Chapter 179： buy

Latest website: Aunt Zhang still couldn't help but wonder, "Mrs. Zhou, why did you guys move here when you are doing well?"

"My husband wants to guard the farm here. It's more convenient for the family to live here." Pei Xiu said half-truths because some things were hard to say.

Aunt Zhang nodded in understanding but not understanding, no wonder the noble asked what Zhuangzi planted, it should be a very important thing. She's just a temporary helper, so shut up, it's better to know less.

After a day of near misses, when she saw Zhou Cheng coming back, she excitedly greeted her, and felt a little aggrieved. I'm pregnant, and I'm feeling pretentious.

Zhou Cheng took her into his arms, frowned, patted her back, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"Today, the second son of the Liaodong palace is here."

"What?" Zhou Cheng straightened her body and asked in surprise, "What is he here for? Did he embarrass you?"

"No, I asked a few words, and as soon as we asked three questions, he left angrily." Pei Xiu took him into the hall and explained the process to him in detail.

Zhou Cheng had a serious expression and pursed his lips, "It's fine if you don't embarrass you, I have an official position now, and he has some scruples, so he doesn't dare to do anything to you!"

"That's what I thought too, so I didn't feel scared, it was just hypocritical." He also felt funny when he said that, he was getting old.

Seeing Zhou Cheng's serious expression, she also reassured him: "Second Young Master came here once, but if he can't ask anything, he probably won't come again. You don't have to worry."

"Well, I'll see when I'm free. Let's go buy a few servants, otherwise it's inconvenient to do anything, and you can ask people to find me if something happens." Zhou Cheng was really worried.

"Let's buy a servant to run errands first? We just hired Aunt Zhang, and if we buy a few more people, we won't be able to use her. It's not good for people to break their trust if we agree to hire a production worker. Besides, we're buying too many now. I can't use it, can I sit and catch mosquitoes? Let's buy it after I give birth, I guess we will move to Dong'an City by then?"

"Almost, I'm not a peasant officer after all, so I won't be here all the time. Then I'll go to the city tomorrow to find someone to buy a servant, so that you can send someone to find me if you have any problems, and there will be no one to accompany you at home. ."

"Well, buy a younger one and be more honest. In the future, I can also be a book boy with a few children." Younger, more malleable.

"Well, you will be wronged for a few months. Let's try to harvest all the crops in the field, and then move to Dong'an City. We haven't even seen the new house."

Pei Xiu shook his head, "What are you wronged? This house is much better than our hometown. I have nothing to be wronged. And now it's better. There are people to serve you, so you don't have to do anything yourself."

Zhou Cheng touched her stomach, "It will get better and better."

Pei Xiu pushed him away and stood up, "Go and take a bath. The smell of sweat on your body is smoking your daughter. I'll go see if Aunt Zhang's food is ready."

A few boys came back with their horses, poking their heads outside the house, and saw their parents talking in the main room. They didn't bother going in, they went to give Xiao Hei and Xiaobai a bath first, and then they cleaned up before entering the house.

"Mother, can you eat, I'm so hungry." Zhou Heng howled as soon as he came in.

Pei Xiu touched his flat stomach, "Well, I'm really hungry, no wonder you're the shortest."

Zhou Heng coquettishly called her mother, with a long ending. With such a coquettish personality, she suspected that she was born of the wrong gender and should be a little girl.

"It'll be ready soon, go set the dishes, don't sit and wait, there's no need for so many people to go." It's just a few bowls, there's no need to crowd them all into the kitchen.

Zhou Heng slipped off the table, excitedly

Running to the kitchen to get the dishes, I almost bumped into Aunt Zhang who was serving the dishes.

"Oh, my little ancestor, slow down, this soup is hot, don't burn you."

Pei Xiu went forward to take the dishes, and ordered the boss to go to the kitchen to help with it. The third one is so fussy, don't break the bowl.

"I'll come, I'll be fine." Aunt Zhang watched the two of them holding the bowls, running up and swaying, her heart trembled, but don't break it, they all cost money.

Zhou Heng still grinned, "Aunt Zhang, you should go home for dinner too."

"Hey, good. Eat slowly."

Seeing that Zhou Cheng hadn't come out for a long time, Pei Xiu asked them to urge him, "Tell your father to come out for dinner."

"Dad... dinner..." Zhou Yong shouted loudly.

Pei Xiu patted him angrily, "You won't be able to take a step, your ears will be deaf."

Zhou Cheng also glared at this guy when he came out, and he didn't hit the roof for three days.

"Have you shaved? No wonder you didn't come out for a long time." After taking a look at Zhou Cheng, he realized that he said to the children, "Your father is going to the county town tomorrow. Have you run out of rice paper? Do you want him to buy some more?"

They nodded, and Zhou Heng added: "Dad, buy more, Brother Huzi takes too much paper to write."

The tiger smiled embarrassedly.

The boss asked curiously, "Dad isn't busy, why are you going to the county seat?"

"Go to the Jamboree to buy a servant and come back to run errands."

The boss said excitedly: "Our family is finally going to buy someone."

Pei Xiu looked at him inexplicably, "What are you excited about? Your mother, I have a big belly, and you are not at home. Aunt Zhang is getting old again. It is more convenient to buy a servant to run errands. As for being so excited? "

"Oh, I thought I would buy a lot of people to serve us. Don't the big families, as well as the officials and eunuchs, have a lot of servants?"

"You don't need money to buy people, don't you pay wages every month? Your father hasn't received a salary yet, so I don't know how much. Our family doesn't need so many people for the time being." Aggrieved myself, living in Zhuangzi is not suitable for raising too many people now.

The boss suddenly remembered, they don't even know what official Dad is?

"Your father is now the Commander of Zhaowu, on the sixth rank."

Hu Zi asked curiously, "Is the biggest official a rank one?"

Zhou Cheng answered him: "There is no one rank among the officials of the royal palace~ There are only officials appointed by the imperial court."

Huzi: "What kind of official is Uncle Qiu?"

"He is General Dingyuan, he is on the fifth rank, and the ranks of local generals are divided."

"Then Uncle Qiu is better than your father?" Zhou Yong asked curiously.

Zhou Cheng hummed expressionlessly.

A few children nodded in understanding, but they didn't understand how much of an official he was, but they only knew that Uncle Qiu was more powerful than Dad. That's right, Uncle Qiu has been an official for a long time, and Dad just became an official.

"Eat quickly, it's going to be dark in a while, and you haven't done your homework yet. Recently, you've been running horses every day, and your homework has been delayed so late." Pei Xiu urged.

"Mother, it's also a business for us to ride horses. The master said that the six arts of a gentleman, ritual, music, archery, horsemanship, calligraphy, and arithmetic, are all compulsory to learn. It's just that the conditions in the countryside do not allow it." Zhou Heng remembered what he said to the master. Also remember very well.
