Chapter 211： bottom line

With a smile in Zhulan's eyes, she knew that Mrs. Li would come, "En."

Mrs. Li came in and pinched the clothes. She was timid when she wanted to open her mouth, and stupidly ingratiated herself, "Mother, I'm tired of sewing today. I'll rub my shoulders for my mother."

Zhu Lan is silent, if Li's other things to please her, she can still tease Li's, but Li's massage, she can't enjoy it, Li's skills are all trained on the boss, the boss is rough The thick flesh screamed in pain, and her small body couldn't stand it, so she tapped the edge of the kang with her fingertips, "Take it."

Only then did Mrs. Li notice the purse in her mother-in-law's hand, and she was instantly moved. It turned out that her mother-in-law had seen through her mind long ago, and was waiting for her to come over. She happily grabbed the purse, "Mother, you are so kind to me, thank you mother."

I'm moved, my mother-in-law only gave her a purse, and my mother-in-law misses her the most.

Zhulan chuckled lightly, Li's is really easy to satisfy, this is just a reward purse embroidered by a little girl, even Zhao's can't compare, Li can take it carefully, "It's getting late, your father will be soon. It's time to come back, there are two more people tonight, you can roll out some noodles, so as not to not have enough to eat at night."

Li got the purse, and happily responded, "I'll go right now."

Zhou Shuren came home on time, changed his clothes and came out. Zhulan had already helped Zhao to set up the hot pot, and was waiting for Zhou Shuren to sit down for dinner.

Zhou Shuren and Dr. Lv's father and son were polite first, saying that Mr. Lu was impatient, and Zhou Shuren moved his chopsticks.

Zhulan suppressed the smile at the corner of her mouth, Zhou Shuren absolutely did it on purpose, and Mr. Lu made fun of Zhou Shuren. This time, Zhou Shuren found a chance, so he would naturally want to return it. Look, Mr. Lu is greedy.

For the hot pot in the evening, the ten kilograms of pork belly I bought were all cut. I bought a lump of it and looked at it. After cutting it into the pot and washing it with a few chopsticks, it was a plate. , I ate as much as Boss Zhou, but fortunately, Li's noodles had enough noodles, otherwise it would not be enough.

Mr. Lu was satisfied with his food. Fortunately, he came to Zhou's house to borrow it, otherwise he would miss the hot pot. He touched his beard, and he had a hunch that he would gain a few pounds at Zhou's house.

As a family member, Zhou Shuren chatted with Mr. Lu for a while, and took advantage of the situation to inquire about a lot of the situation next door. Mr. Lu didn't think much about it. It was normal for the two to be neighbors.

Zhulan sat in the room and listened to the movement, and Zhou Shuren returned after a while, "Master Lu has gone back to rest?"

Zhou Shuren was so tired all day with his brain that he took off his shoes and said, "No, the old man went to the next door to watch. He will stay next door for a while, and told the door of the house not to close."

Seeing Zhou Shuren rubbing her forehead tiredly, Zhulan motioned Zhou Shuren to lie down, stretched out her hand to massage Zhou Shuren, and said while massaging, "Do you think Wang Ru can survive?"

Zhou Shuren closed his eyes, "It's not very good in the past. She has nothing to do with us. She can't escape being controlled by her life. In fact, death is a relief. Her death is good for everyone."

Zhulan paused and looked down at Zhou Shuren. She couldn't compare to Zhou Shuren. A man's heart is colder than a woman's. Before Zhou Shuren passed through, he had an indifferent temperament. Well, it's more casual to say death now. It can only be said that Zhou Shuren saw a lot of human life worthless when she didn't know it.

Zhou Shuren felt Zhulan's fingers caressing his eyebrows, and reached out to grab Zhulan's hand, "What's wrong? Frowning?"

Zhulan stared at Zhou Shuren's eyes, but didn't ask any questions. Zhou Shuren was around outside as a scholar. He suddenly got the blue eyes of the young master of the Hou family, and he was envied. Protecting, as long as Zhou Shuren suffers grievances, the county magistrate will not care, his eyes are full of distressed feelings, "It's nothing, I just want to see you."

Zhou Shuren's heart trembled, he hummed softly, and then closed his eyes. He had indeed encountered a lot of trouble recently, and he sneered in his heart. Some people deliberately took him to the cell for a day trip. Just today, he saw A little boy was broken and his leg was thrown in the rain just because he said something wrong. He quietly watched the little boy struggling in the rain. Even if the little boy was sent to the hospital later, he would not survive if he was unlucky. Yes, he has a deeper understanding of the despicability of the lower classes.

If the Zhou family wants to do well, he will have to work harder to climb up. Only if he has the strength can he get rid of the fate of being crushed to death. Although he climbs up, he is still controlled by the imperial power. At least it is the imperial power who controls the fate of the Zhou family, not just a little bit. A capable person can destroy the Zhou family.

He didn't think to tell Zhulan about this, he didn't expect Zhulan's intelligence to hear some changes in his mentality from his words, and clenched Zhulan's hand. If there was no Zhulan, he thought he would live a better life. Well, the bottom line will definitely be very low, even without sacrificing means, it is Zhulan who is there, he has sustenance and weakness, and also has a bottom line.

Although the two did not speak, their hearts were connected.

Tonight, the two didn't talk before going to bed. Zhu Lan was nestled in Zhou Shuren's arms. Zhou Shuren embraced Zhu Lan, face to face with a heartfelt heart. The beating of each other's hearts seemed to be on the same rhythm, as if they were no longer part of each other.

In the morning, Zhou Shuren didn't get up and watched Zhulan get up, "I forgot to say yesterday that I will not go to the county from now on, and I will devote myself to studying."

Zhulan was happy that Zhou Shuren didn't go out, and that he would not be embarrassed or wronged if he stayed at home, "Master Dong, what do you mean?"

Zhou Shuren nodded, "The identity of the male protagonist, the son of the Hou's mansion, is trouble. Yao Zheyu is interested in Wang Ru through us, but outsiders don't know, it's too eye-catching. There are many people who are jealous of me in the county. After discussing with me, Mr. Dong and I , I'd better stay at home and study, if you don't know how to wait for him to rest, ask him."

Zhu Lan said, "That's fine, I guess Wang Ru will survive, Shi Qing will definitely take Wang Ru away, and then the male protagonist will also leave, and our family will stop."

Zhou Shuren also felt that this time, Wang Ru, a cash cow, had an accident, and Shi Qing would not let Wang Ru free again This big trouble is finally over.

Zhulan put on her clothes for a while, and said worriedly, "You said that Wang Ru is so obsessed with Xuehan that she will get worse when she kills herself. In the end, will the fish die and the net will break and pull Xuehan?"

Zhou Shuren does not rule out this possibility. When people's resentment reaches the extreme, they will form obsessions, like being in a demon. He is even more worried about whether he will pull the entire Zhou family, "If Wang Ru survives, he will only cherish his life, and it is not a last resort. I won't die, at least give me time to grow."

As long as he becomes a scholar and becomes an official, he will not be arbitrarily slaughtered.

For breakfast, the rice porridge and steamed vegetarian buns cooked by Mr. Li were only the son of Mr. Lu, who was still sleeping.

Lu Lingzhi explained, "My father stayed there for most of the night last night. I just came back to rest for a while. Please leave some food to eat when my father wakes up."

Zhulan said, "This is what it should be."

Zhou Shuren asked, "Has the fever next door subsided?"
