Zhulan and Zhou Shuren glanced at each other, and the two of them were still talking privately, thinking that the Qian family would come yesterday, but it didn't happen. .
I must have checked it out when I came to the door today. It seems that the money manager has his own ability to inquire about the news, and it took only one day to find out!
The stewards of the businessman's family pay a lot of money, which is more complicated than the stewards of the official family!
Boss Zhou came back from the front yard to report the letter first, while Boss Zhou was welcoming people in.
The Zhou family's house is not big, and it's not a few steps from the front yard to the back yard. When Boss Zhou's voice fell, Zhu Lan heard the voice of the conversation. This is the back yard.
Boss Zhou hurriedly turned around and opened the curtain. It was still cold before March, and the curtain of Zhou's house was hanging all the time.
The curtain opened and the person walking in front of Mr. Zhou was Steward Qian. She looked in her fifties. The woman beside Qian Steward had white hair on her head. She was obviously about the same age as Zhulan, but she was much older than Zhulan. Fang's.
In the end, there were two people carrying gifts. The one in his thirties should be the eldest son of the housekeeper Qian, and there was a boy around ten years old, who should be the grandson.
Zhulan thought to herself that the boy she brought should be a student, otherwise she should bring her eldest grandson.
Zhou Shuren got up and said, "Mr. Qian, please take a seat."
It's not surprising that Mr. Qian didn't hear the name of his in-laws. He checked it out. The Zhou family is a farmer. Two of the Zhou family's sons have passed the county exam. One is Tong Yangfu, and the Zhou family is also studying Besides, with his grandson, there are quite a few scholars in the same school. If Zhou Xiucai is selected in the middle, the Zhou family will be the first in the scholarly family.
A scholar has the arrogance of a scholar, a scholar, peasant, businessman, even though he has never been a businessman, he is still a slave to the merchant's family. Even if he becomes a farmer, he is still looked down upon by others. Zhou Xiucai is considered polite to him, at least his face does not show contempt. .
What's more, the Zhou family and the official family have in-laws, and Zhou Xiucai has contacts with the Zhao family. It's right to be arrogant. After investigating the Qian family, he asked his son to take the Zhao family to recognize his relatives, and he took out the heavy ceremony to recognize his relatives. They are kind people, they are kind, and they are good at calculating.
Just looking at Zhou Xiucai sitting on the main seat, he is in his fifties, and he has seen everyone along with the merchants, from the official family to the ruffian and hooligan. At a glance, you can see that the Zhou family is not easy to fool. Kindness means kindness is not easy to calculate.
When I was in the Qian family, the cheap son-in-law who had always been naive, was polite and respectful at this time, and the expression on his face had not changed. Come on, I knew it in my heart. What a foolish son-in-law, he was deliberately following him. What you said when you asked, how would you shock the Qian family if you didn't say it.
The purpose of this one, it seems that there is no drama!
I've been calculating all day long, and this one has failed, too, if I'm really simple and honest, how can I have a relationship with the Zhao family, and send my future son-in-law and grandson to the academy!
Zhulan greeted Mrs. Fang into the back room. Compared with the quietness of the hall, she was much more intimate with Mrs. Fang. She sat down with Mrs. Fang's hand in her own hands, "My mother, I have long wanted to see you, but I never had the chance. We finally meet."
Seeing that her daughter's mother-in-law's eyes were genuine, she didn't need it, her heart was relaxed, her daughter didn't lie, and her mother-in-law was really kind to her, "I wanted to come here yesterday, but I was delayed by something. Today I came here specially to not only recognize the door, but also I personally come to thank my mother for her love for Zhao, thanks to my mother over the years."
When the words fell, Mrs. Fang was about to salute, and Zhulan hurriedly grabbed it and pressed Mrs. Fang to sit down, "Zhao's entering my Zhou family is my Zhou family, and I should protect it. My mother doesn't need to thank her."
Fang was really grateful. At the beginning, she saw the girl's disfigurement. She was happy that the girl protected her, but she was sad about which girl didn't love beauty. Fortunately, she told her in private that it was a painting, and she knew from the girl's mouth that the girl was beautiful. Her in-laws are all good people, especially the daughter-in-law's mother-in-law, she is very grateful for everything she does.
The daughter's life is better than hers, and she is more fortunate than her, so she is happy, but she still wants to see her in person, so that she can feel at ease.
Zhulan sat next to Mrs Fang and picked up the teapot on the kang table, "It's not long since the tea was brewed. My mother-in-law came all the way to get thirsty. Drink a cup of hot tea to warm up your body."
Fang shi took the teacup with both hands, and felt even more at ease. Her in-laws didn't dislike her selling her body and remarrying. Her tone was full of gratitude: "Thank you."
Zhulan knew in her heart that this thank you was too much, thank her too much, thank her for taking care of the Zhao family, and thank you for admitting that she poured tea with her own hands.
She has now guessed why Mrs. Fang didn't come yesterday. The Qian family inquired about it on the one hand, and Mrs. Fang's clothes that she didn't go out to wear. Seeing that the clothes were not freshly made, they were bought at the ready-to-wear shop in the city.
Looking at Fang's jewelry, it is low-key but valuable. Zhulan thought to herself, the Qian family is really rich, if you don't withdraw cash, even if the jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings are sold, it is a large sum of money, and the Yun family is really fattening money. The big mouse is in charge, um, it seems that the housekeepers of the big families have money.
Fang Shi was a little uncomfortable, "My mother, but what do you think is wrong with me?"
No, she knows what she can bring and what she can wear, and she can't go wrong.
Zhulan smiled, "I just looked at it, there are not too many aspects of Zhao's like his own mother."
The corners of Fang's mouth were stern, "She is more like her father. This girl is too skilled, so she chooses the right one."
She was originally good-looking, plus Xianggong was also a well-known young man from Shili Ba Village, and her daughter had chosen the right length, so she looked like she was hurting herself. Fortunately, the daughter was lucky.
Seeing that Mrs. Fang hadn't walked out yet, Zhulan sighed in her heart that women were particularly willing to reminisce, no matter how painful or sweet, she would never forget that Mrs. Zhao just entered the house.
Zhao's arrival was so slow to paint the wound. When Zhao came in, she said excitedly, "Mother."
Fang's eyes were red. She really didn't expect that she would have the opportunity to see her daughter, and her eyes fell on the child in Zhao's arms, "This is Mingrui?"
Zhao Shi handed his son to his mother, "It's three years old, look how sturdy."
The son's birthday is late, and he is a little disadvantaged in his age.
Zhulan didn't see Yushuang. This is because Zhao's family doesn't plan to let Yushuang meet. At least Zhou Shuren doesn't plan to let people see Yushuang before he fails. If the Qian family asks, they will only ask about the Zhou family's men, and women will not pass. More attention, the common problem of ancient men, subconsciously ignore women.
Zhao introduced that Mingrui was the eldest son, and he was indeed the eldest son of the second room.
Mrs Fang hugged the child tightly, "Okay, okay."
Fang Shi only remembered when she saw the child. She brought a gift to the child, and took out a gold lock and a pair of gold bracelets from her purse, "If you don't mention the jade frost, I will bring a set and give Ming the gold lock. Rui, give the bracelet to Yushuang."
She is not the wife of Qian's family who used to be famous. After her daughter recognized her relatives, the old man said why he didn't help her and the child, and he didn't lie to her. It was because she was worthless. To be honest, she knew that the old man would really treat her well in the future, and he also gave her a silver ticket to spend, thinking of this.
Mrs Fang hurriedly took out two silver notes from her purse, "This is the dowry your mother gave you Mrs Zhao is a little silly, two silver notes of one hundred taels, "Mother, where did they come from? money? "
Fang Shi gave it to his daughter, "Don't worry, take Qian Shengbao to me, and let me use it myself, give me three hundred taels in one breath, this is to support me secretly giving it to you, take it quickly, this money is for the Qian family. It's really nothing, the Qian family doesn't seem to have much wealth on the surface, but it's rich."
Fang Shi paused for a while and continued: "Although mother doesn't know how much, she has been married to your uncle for a few years, and she has a lot of knowledge on her face. It is not an antique calligraphy and painting. There must be a lot of things hidden, which is why the sons and daughters-in-law of the Qian family are arguing with your brother and me, not because you are afraid that your brother is an old son and will split most of the family property."
Bamboo Orchid, "......"
Did Mrs. Fang trust her too much and even said it in front of her!
