Chapter 224: into the set

Zhou Shuren opened the box. There were neatly arranged silver ingots in the box. He pointed to the box and said, "There are a total of 122 taels of silver in the box.

Zhu Lan closed the box and calculated the account, "Chang Lian's marriage gave three hundred taels of betrothal gifts, and there are still more than four hundred and sixty taels of silver left. The male protagonist gave it twice later, and Wang Ru and Shi Qing gave it again. , not counting the silver money for selling gold, I just calculated the family's wealth, and there are 490 taels left, and now adding the 120 taels for selling gold, the family has a total of 610 taels of silver."

With more than 600 taels of silver, Zhulan is confident this time. At least she won't have any money left when she buys the Zheng family's house. She still has money left over to hold a wedding banquet and support the family's expenses. There are many scholars in the family. Monthly paper is a lot of money!

Zhou Shuren felt that his family had very little money. Now he was just buying land, not even Zhuangzi, so the family’s money had bottomed out. After calculating all the money in his heart, it was not enough to buy a house in the capital, and he was still poor!

Zhou Shuren heard Li's call to eat, and pushed the lid of the box into the corner, "Don't worry about money, let's go out to eat too!"

"good."

On the second day, Boss Zhou drove the car, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren went together, Zhou Shuren went to see the land, and Zhulan was in charge of watching the house. It was the first time I came to the door, and Zhulan brought the cakes, so the fabrics would not be ugly. Zheng There will be no shortage of fabrics at home in the future, it is better to bring some snacks to look good.

Zheng's natal family, the Zheng family Ding is also prosperous. The Zheng family is the youngest in the family. The older brothers are all gone. They all have grandchildren. After more than 40 years of development, they are a big family. The house is not according to the farmers' households. The house was built, but it was surrounded by a high wall outside, and there were several courtyards inside, which were connected without interfering with each other.

As soon as Zhulan entered the door, if no one took it with her, it would be very easy to faint. It can be seen that how much effort was put into the construction at that time. When we arrived at the main courtyard, Zheng's parents were still alive. It was probably due to the military commander, and his body was still very strong.

Master Zheng laughed, "I guess it's time for someone to arrive, and the voice arrived as soon as it fell."

Zhou Shuren and Zhulan greeted them. They were juniors. Zhou Shuren said, "There is nothing good about visiting the door for the first time, so I brought some cakes for the children."

Master Zheng is not a simple military general. Back then, his father had to leave and keep his certificate of innocence. He was the father who reached out and knocked him unconscious. Later, God was helping the Zheng family. I'm not angry with him anymore. After all, it's all his credit for the whole family to escape.

Old Man Zheng smiled kindly, "Old nephew is very polite, don't stand and sit quickly."

Zhulan looked at Mr. Zheng. She thought that Mrs. Zheng's appearance followed her mother, but now she realized that Mr. Zheng was very thin and thin, not like a military general at all, but more like a literati.

The Zheng family was not in a hurry to talk about the land and the house. Zhulan realized it. The buyer they are looking for is their home.

It's just that I don't know if I knew from the patriarch's family that their family was going to buy land, or if they had already figured it out, and whether Zheng's family knew about the family's plan.

Zhou Shuren was no longer in a hurry to ask about the land. He drank his tea slowly, hehehe in his heart, who is telling him that the generals are only straight-minded, who is he worried about, and thinks again, the Zheng family is really straight-minded, early. If he died, how could he settle down in Lijia Village?

Zhulan was pulled to talk by the old lady Zheng. The old lady has been in the countryside for more than 40 years, and she can still see good upbringing. Every gesture is full of charm. Zheng's calligraphy and painting must be taught by the old lady.

Mrs. Zheng smiled, "Try the dim sum brought over from the northwest. It's another flavor, but I don't know if you're used to eating it."

Zhulan is a foodie, mainly Northwest dim sum and pasta. In modern times, she likes Northwest dim sum. She picked up a piece, took a bite, and said, "It's delicious."

Seeing that Zhulan wasn't cheating, Mrs. Zheng smiled genuinely, "It's delicious to take home some later. It's hard to see dim sum from the Northwest in the Northeast."

Bamboo orchid really likes to eat, pollution-free is much more delicious than modern, "Then I'm welcome."

Mrs. Zheng asked casually, "I heard that you are learning to draw?"

Zhulan thought to herself, not only did they notice the Zheng family, but the Zheng family also paid attention to them. She even asked about her painting, "Is this a family with the county magistrate's family, and the county magistrate's wife invited them a few times to discuss whether it was tea art or something? When it comes to painting, I thought about not being ashamed to the boss and my son, so I tried to learn, I have always been groping on my own, and my sister-in-law has pointed me to my recent progress.”

Mrs. Zheng can hear her daughter say that Yang's painting is very talented, "I have heard what I love to say, but then again, I taught your sister-in-law's painting, and I was thinking about having the time to give you pointers, but I didn't expect that. , the plan can't keep up with the changes, we are going to the northwest, and it is estimated that there will be no chance to see each other in the future."

Speaking of which, Mrs. Zheng was very sad, her daughter was not in good shape, she might not be able to walk in front of her, and she would not even have the chance to meet in the future.

Zhulan noticed that the old lady was in a low mood, and hurriedly said, "The fate is uncertain, maybe we will meet again in the future."

The old lady likes to hear these words, "Auntie is very close to you when she sees you. It is indeed fate. Auntie doesn't adulterate with you. We don't worry about selling the house we live in now. Only when we sell it to you can we feel relieved. Zhou family, you are relatives, and we are also relatives."

If it wasn’t for the fact that their favorite body was not good enough, their son-in-law was getting old, and their grandson’s talent for reading was mediocre. The ability is restrained, and it is easy to suffer disaster if he can't keep it. He is thinking that if the house is dealt with, this is the hidden back way of the Zheng family. Only through the niece did I get to know the Zhou Shuren family. After understanding, I found a more suitable person to take over.

Zhulan thought to herself, seeing that this house was designed to have a doorway, why did she feel that the Zheng family came to their house just to look at the house with their hands?

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren looked at each other, they were still inquiring about others, but they ended up falling into their traps, and they still took the initiative to get in. This kind of feeling is really not very good.

Zhulan could only keep smiling, "Yes, it's also a relative Mrs. Zheng is more satisfied, indeed, as her daughter said, they are all shrewd people, some words don't need to be explained, others can Guessed, but they were indeed a little bit inauthentic. They put bait and waited for people to take the bait. Speaking of which, the girl didn't even tell her plan. The girls all figured it out together, and the old lady felt calm again. "I've been wearing this bracelet for a few years, a first-class jade bracelet. I heard from my favorite that you have also suffered from a serious illness and have been raising your body. They say that jade that has been worn for a long time has spirituality, and this jade-supporting aunt gave it to you. "

Zhulan wanted to withdraw her hand, but fell silent. The old lady's hand was not very strong, and the bracelet was already on her hand, and the old lady said with satisfaction, "It matches you better."

The old lady didn't feel bad. When they escaped, the head of the family and the eldest brother took their sons to raid the house of the guard who wanted to harm the family in the middle of the night. They took a lot of gold and silver jewelry without causing any trouble, so the Zheng family was not short of money.

The jade bracelets sent out now are just my favorites. There are many at home, but I have never brought them to keep a low profile.

Zhulan looked down at the jade bracelet, speechless, this bracelet is worth a lot of money, and sure enough, her intuition was right, their family is looking for the person who came to see the house!
