Chapter 260: not good

Zhulan digested the news and asked, "Do the people from the Yun family know where the housekeeper is?"

Zhao shi was in a trance. After listening to her mother-in-law's question, she recovered from the news that her mother had married again, and clenched the handkerchief in her hand and waited for her father-in-law to reply.

Zhou Shuren said: "The housekeeper Qian is a native of Pingzhou. The Yun family left. The housekeeper Qian took the family back to his hometown, Qianjia Village, which is about an hour's drive from Pingzhou."

Zhulan was surprised. She thought it would take a lot of trouble to find someone, but she never expected that Zhao Bo would help him to find out. It took only two days before and after, and the person was so easy to find. Zhulan couldn't help but think, it's probably not the protagonist. , so there are not so many twists and turns to toss.

Zhulan saw that the Zhao family was still in a daze, and asked Changyi, "I didn't expect to find someone so soon. When are you going to go to Qianjia Village?"

Zhou Lao Er has considered all kinds of possibilities, but he really never thought that his mother-in-law would remarry, which disrupted the plan a bit. Originally, he discussed with his wife, saved money to redeem the family, and then rented a small yard for his mother-in-law to live in. Now it is cheaper. Father-in-law, oh, no, listen to what Dad said, cheap father-in-law is a big family, and mother-in-law is going to be a stepmother for others!

Zhou Lao Er looked at his wife, come on, the wife hasn't digested the news yet, she's been stunned for a long time, and it's estimated that she will have to accept it for a while.

Zhou Lao Er supported his wife and said, "Father, mother, let's go back to discuss first, and come back later."

Zhulan, "Go back!"

Zhao Shi is a very thoughtful person, so he has to think about it for a while.

Zhu Lan waited for the couple to go out and said, "There must be other news. Now that they are gone, we can talk about it."

Zhou Shuren knew that he couldn't hide it from Zhulan, "There is indeed news, ahem, Zhao's mother entered the house with pregnancy, gave birth to a boy, and is three years old this year, and there are quite a few people in Qian's family, there are only three sons, and the stepmother does not It’s so good, especially since the stepson is old and Zhao’s mother doesn’t have a family, it is estimated that her life will not be very good.”

Zhulan calculated the age of Zhao's mother, Zhao's mother is twenty-two this year, Zhao's mother should be almost thirty-seven, three years ago, she gave birth to a boy, and the ancient mother gave birth. It's alright."

Zhou Shuren, "Zhao Bo didn't mention it, it should be fine."

Zhulan sighed, "Zhao's mother's life is really bad. The former husband sold her, the next husband has a big family, and the son is young. This life is really hard."

"It's better than selling your life as a slave and pinching your life in someone else's hands."

After thinking about it, Zhu Lan was also worried, "Zhao's mother married the housekeeper Qian. It is estimated that the housekeeper saw it at a glance, so she didn't bring it back to the mansion. Zhao's mother was sold for more than 30 years, and she still has a charm. Save, it is conceivable that the Zhao family will not be bad as a daughter, the Qian family is messy, and those who can be housekeepers are all smart, and it is not necessarily a good thing to recognize relatives."

Zhou Shuren naturally thought of it, "Wait and see what Chang Yi has to say."

He also wanted to test the second child to see if he could think of this.

Zhulan rolled her eyes and curled the corners of her mouth, "I have a solution."

Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows and asked, "What can I do?"

There is really no good way for him, mainly because he is a talented person. If he is a person, he can hold down his cheap relatives. It is not common to borrow money.

Zhulan said mysteriously: "Secret."

After a while, Zhou Lao Er came by himself, and Zhou Lao Er said: "Dad, I have discussed with the Zhao family, I will go to Qianjia Village to see, if the mother-in-law is doing well, we will wait for Dad to meet after the election. ."

He also thought that both Chang Lian and Chang Zhi were admitted to the Xiucai, and there were three scholars in one subject. Chang Lian and Chang Zhi were both young and very intimidating, but they did not have much confidence in whether their two younger brothers could pass the examination. In other words, he believed more that his father could do it.

Zhou Shuren was very satisfied with Zhou Lao Er's thorough consideration, "What if things go bad?"

Zhou Lao Er saluted, "We thought about it, Mr. Zhao wanted to slap his face, but the son didn't agree. The son didn't dislike Mr. Zhao's face, but if the son couldn't protect his wife, the son would feel incompetent, so the son thought about it. The way, back then, the daughters of Wang Laosi’s family were getting better and better day by day, and my son has observed that several girls are very good at makeup, so I wondered if they could disguise their disfigurement on Zhao’s face.”

Zhulan looked at the second child of Zhou, she really did not expect that the second child of Zhou would observe the changes of Wang Ru's several girls, and thought of a way from the change, which was the same as what she thought.

Seeing Zhulan's reaction, Zhou Shuren knew that Zhulan was thinking the same way, and asked Older Zhou, "Since you have a way, why do you have to wait for the middle class to recognize each other?"

Zhou Lao Er explained, "If my son wants to be a housekeeper, he is also the housekeeper of a merchant's family. He must have a lot of scheming, and it's better to be a leader."

Zhou Shuren is satisfied, it's good that Zhou Lao Er can think of these things, he used to be confined to his hometown, but now he is in the city, Zhou Lao Er will get better experience, "Since you have an idea, do it according to your ideas, what's the matter? You need to find me again."

Zhou Lao Er heard that his father was satisfied with him, and his heart was relieved. He was really afraid that his father would remember what he interrupted, "Father, then I will go to Qianjia Village tomorrow to find out."

"kindness."

Although the Zhou family didn't know about the Zhao family's search for her mother, from the trance-like appearance of the Zhao family, they also knew that there was something wrong with the second room, but they didn't know what was going on.

The next day, Mr. Zhou left without breakfast. The carriage was rented by Mr. Zhou last afternoon. Before leaving, Mr. Zhao stuffed some cakes, for fear that Mr. Zhou would be hungry.

For breakfast, Mrs. Zhao was absent-minded, Mrs. Li wanted to ask, but Mrs. Dong stopped him.

Zhu Lan glanced at Mrs. Dong more than once. Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Li have been very close to Mr. Li these past few days, and they have not mentioned much about Mrs. Li in private. Many, because the angle of the station is different, Li's understanding is different.

The effect is also remarkable. Mrs. Li is much more stable at home and knows what to ask and what not to ask.

After the meal, Zhou Shuren went to squat. Today is Jiang Ming's day off.

When Zhulan was at home, Mrs. Wu Li brought Wu Hao to the house. Mrs. Wu Li brought a lot of door-to-door gifts. There were two big fish and some meat in the basket.

When Zhulan saw that there was enough weight in the door, it was because she had something to do, "Auntie, just say it straight away, why do you still take so many gifts?"

Mrs Wu Li was not surprised, Mrs Yang saw that she had wanted to come for a long time, but it was abrupt last time, and she was a little embarrassed to come here It took me a few days to wait and forget something before I came to the door and pulled it over The granddaughter said: "Auntie does have something to ask for, as you know, I can cook, and I can only give it to the girl, but only cooking, Nvhong, I can only sew clothes, not embroidery, I met girl Han and gave it to her. I only know that you have a talented embroiderer in your family, and I don't want to be able to give pointers to my girl, so I went to the door with shame."

Zhu Lan smiled, "I thought what was the matter, it turned out to be pointing, this is not a big deal, it's just that there's something going on at home recently, auntie, please let Wu Xi and Xue Han lay the foundation first, and then come and learn how to do it after the government has tried it. ?"

Zhulan also saw Zhao's faintly nodding before she agreed. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so happy, and she must ask Zhao's.

Wu Li's heart is happy, "Of course it's good, my aunt has thanked me here."

Mrs Wu Li sat for a while and then got up and said goodbye. Although she didn't go out to help now, she still had a lot of work at home.

Zhulan sent Mrs Wu Li away, returned to the main room, and stopped Mrs Zhao, who wanted to go back to the house, "Wait a minute, Mother, let me tell you something."
