Chapter 497

Xin's family wants to start first. Shen Ze doesn't wait to die. He just sends people to watch general Xin's action and prepare to make a plan.

But on Luo's side, Shujing was a little puzzled when she saw her husband's sullen appearance for several days. This day, she saw that he came home early and didn't do any serious work. She just leaned against the window to read a miscellaneous book, which was quite different from his busy and capable appearance in the past. Shu Jing retreated from the maids and asked, "how can I look at your absent-minded appearance these days, but what's the trouble?"

Magistrate Luo shook his head gently. "Zhang Tongzhi's business just happened. Now all the officials are honest and tight. Everything is in order. What's the trouble?"

Shu Jing more confused "that is for what matter so lost?"

"I'm just lamenting the impermanence of the world. I think I'm from a noble family, and I have some talent. But when I first came to Rongcheng, I was quite helpless in the face of the complicated situation here. Especially at that time, the former Emperor was still alive, and the king of Zhou still had some hope of seizing the throne. I was suppressed by Zhang Tongzhi. Later, after the first emperor left, he gradually subsided. Even now, with my ability to deal with him, I can't be as calm as Mrs. Shen. However, they did. I have to admit that I'm not as good as a woman or a child. "

Seeing that her husband was so depressed, Shu Jing quickly comforted her and said, "every life has its own chance. Mrs. Shen has her own chance, which we can't force."

Magistrate Luo nodded, "I know that, but I'm not reconciled after all." After that, he sighed with emotion: "according to the official scholar, the eldest son of the Shen family is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also has solid knowledge, which can be called both civil and martial arts. It's a pity that the eldest sister is a commoner. If she comes out, she can't be a daughter in law with the Shen family. "

Shujing was quite surprised and said, "you didn't look down on others in the past. How come you want to be a daughter in law?" Magistrate Luo said with a wry smile, "I used to have eyes but didn't know Taishan. I didn't really realize the strength of others. Now when I see it, I have to think about it." He said with a self mocking smile, "in the past, I was full of pride for my husband. I thought that as long as I had the ability to work hard, I would be able to get ahead. But now it seems that I'm really wrong. I really need to rely on my own ability to get ahead. Unless there is a big chance, everything is just a fantasy."

Then he took Shujing's hand and said, "you know, we are both original children. We don't love our parents. I started from the fourth grade mainly by relying on my family's idea of dowry management of the old and my biological mother. If I go up again, it's easy to say that the fourth grade is good, but if I want to go up to the third grade, it's useless to have no iron relationship in the court. "

Smell speech, Shu Jing feel some confusion, "then, this matter with governor Shen what relationship?"

Magistrate Luo stood up and breathed a long breath, "I don't care only about Shen Ze, but also the loyal government, the empress and the prince behind him!" He set his eyes on Shujing: "you came from the imperial clan, you should know that the greatest contribution has always been from the dragon."

Shujing was surprised to stand up, "when did Xianggong have such an idea? It's true that the dragon's work is rewarding, but what if it doesn't work? Before the emperor's filial piety, the prime minister was thinking about seizing the emperor's right. Isn't it too urgent? "

Magistrate Luo shook his head and said, "it's not that I'm eager, but that we don't have much time. If you think about it, my father is over 50 years old this year, but as my eldest son, I am not even a real son. Even if you can barely inherit the title, I'm afraid you'll end up with a shell mansion and a group of troubled people. "

Shujing whispered, "but when we left Beijing, didn't we agree not to take care of everything in Beijing? Don't we agree not to fight? "

"But I'm not reconciled. I'm the eldest son of my father. It's natural for me to inherit the family property. I don't have to fight for it. I can't do that! And my brother-in-law. My father-in-law is a second wife. He doesn't have to think about any titles. But are you willing to let him stay idle all his life at home and be a poor clan who has nothing to do all day and can only live on his own branches? " After many years of marriage, magistrate Luo clearly knew where his wife's weakness was. In a word, he blocked all her opposition. In fact, it's not only her husband's unwillingness. Since the day her stepmother came in, her unwillingness has been deeply buried in her heart. Now, it's just all dug up.

Not to mention how the Luo family and his wife negotiate and plan, leisurely here is the stomach day by day. It's time to give birth. I put everything aside and concentrate on the labor. Yulian is here almost every day, and Shen Ze sends people back to greet her every day.

On this day, leisurely is looking at the income from Chuang Tzu. At the beginning, for the convenience of eating and using, although I knew that the land yield here was not high, leisurely still let people buy a small Chuang Tzu of about 500 mu nearby. There are lotus root fields, tea hills, vegetable fields, orchards, a 20 mu flower shed she made, and a dozen Mu flower fields for Xi's rouge. After a year, the government has almost enough vegetables and fruits. However, there are not many kinds of rice. The climate here is warm. The rice is almost double cooked a year, and the yield is not low. You just don't think the rice here tastes good. It's much worse than Wuchang rice, which is sweet, soft and slightly tough in the past, so you don't like it very much. Shen Ze and his sister grew up in Beijing. They were not used to eating rice since childhood, but they ate more pasta. This is also true of the people coming from the capital, especially the soldiers, who often say that they are not satisfied with rice and have no strength. Thanks to the convenience of sea transportation, the price of wheat from the north is not too high. Otherwise, eating alone will be a headache.

As she read the account books, she calculated in her heart that in addition to eating and drinking at home, part of the output of Chuang Tzu was sold. In addition to some of the seasonal flowers she had to be looked after, the little Chuang Tzu had a harvest of nearly 1000 Liang a year. In sum, it can basically meet the daily expenses of the government.

Leisurely calculating, I sigh in my heart for a while. I want to worship Buddha if I can save a hundred taels of silver in the first year of junior high school. Now I can't feel that thousands of taels of silver can enter her eyes.

While she was sighing, Su he came in and said, "madam, a Huanghua pear tree you ordered a while ago has been packed and sent. Do you want to have a look?"

Leisurely raised his head, "it's natural to have a look."
