Zhu Lan lowered her eyes and touched the bottom of the teacup with her fingertips. Mrs. Fang can protect Mr. Zhao and teach Mrs. Zhao how to protect herself. Mrs. Fang has her own wisdom. From Mr. Fang's words just now, you can see what Mr. Fang is right. Everything can be seen clearly, Zhao's temperament obviously follows Fang's!

Then, it would be interesting for Mrs. Fang to leak the Qian family's family information in front of her. There is trust, and more importantly, she wants to indirectly tell the Zhou family that the Qian family is rich and has a lot of money.

Zhao Shi was stupid, how could mother say this in front of her mother-in-law, "Mother."

Mrs Fang comforted her daughter to continue listening, and then said: "Mother told you that your uncle Bao has great ambitions, and there is no hope for your sons to study, and there are many children in grandchildren. I hope that my grandson will send out a few scholars, so that I can launder the money family in the future. You have the reputation of being a servant to the merchants, and your uncle is willing to spend money for the sake of a few promising scholars in the future."

Zhu Lan's smile deepened, and Mrs. Fang told her indirectly that the Zhou family should not be deceived by the Qian family's little favor and Xiaohui. The gifts that the Qian family received were a drop in the bucket, and she also reminded her by the way that this one is not just for the family. , come with a purpose.

The Zhao family also reacted, and her heart was sour. Mother said that all this was for her, and she was afraid that the Zhou family would not be able to calculate the Qian family and would be used by the Qian family in the future, "Mother."

Fang said everything she could say. The girl said that her mother-in-law was a powerful person. She was really amazing. The smile on her face had not changed from beginning to end. She couldn't see through Yang's mind. Yes, in the Yun family at that time, there were a lot of calculations, even if she was the housekeeper, she was not decent everywhere. There were too many people who wanted to make money and give birth to treasures.

Zhu Lan put down the teacup in her hand, Fang Shi didn't remind her, and she didn't worry that the Zhou family would be calculated. Zhou Shuren would be thankful if he didn't care about the Qian family. The Qian family dared to come to the door to calculate. Meat, don't tear off a few pieces, sorry for the meat delivered to your door.

Zhulan smiled and said, "My mother-in-law, don't just talk, try the dessert. This is the dessert made by my eldest daughter-in-law, and it tastes good."

When Mrs. Li came to Pingzhou, she either played with vegetables or made dim sum in the kitchen. Mrs. Li felt that the cost of Pingzhou was too high, so she decided to make dim sum. She wanted to start with dim sum to save money. There is no oven, and the steamed snacks are also good. Zhulan likes steamed rice cakes.

Fang Shi smiled and picked up a piece and tasted it, "It's really good."

After talking, I took another bite. Looking at the rice cakes with no special features, the taste is really good, not particularly sweet, and the middle is full of sesame fragrance, which is very delicious.

Zhu Lan pushed down the plate. There were not many rice cakes on the plate. Most of the rice cakes that Li's steamed in the morning were taken away by Rong Chuan and Ming Yun, and some were sent to those who were reading in the front yard. The next one is in the main room.

Mrs. Fang came early in the morning, and she must have eaten nothing. She had eaten breakfast, and she had kept some rice cakes to eat for a while, so she just let Mrs. Fang eat a few more pieces, "My mother likes it, you're welcome, the homemade ones are not worth the money. "

Mrs Fang was indeed hungry, "Then I'll be welcome."

"Don't be an outsider, it's all from your own family."

After Zhulan finished speaking, she said to the Zhao family again, "Go and talk to your sister-in-law and ask her to prepare two tables of dishes."

Zhao Shi stood up, "I'm going to find my sister-in-law."

"Go!"

It was only when Mrs Fang remembered that her daughter-in-law was in charge of the Zhou family's household. She asked herself, if she had a daughter-in-law, she would not be able to achieve the level of the Yang family. She also has to prevent her daughter-in-law from getting her son's heart, and she will not be filial to her in the future, so she admires Yang more and more in her heart, and ordinary people really can't be so kind to her daughter-in-law!

Zhulan felt the admiration, pondered how much Xia Shi's heart could guess, and laughed inwardly, why did she treat her daughter-in-law well and let go of power generously, because she and Zhou Shuren are not relatives, they have been from the beginning to the end. The purpose is to make your life better.

As for the question of filial piety, she and Zhou Shuren are really not afraid. The children of the Zhou family really dare to think about it, and tell them what their stepfather and stepmother are like in minutes. She and Zhou Shuren will definitely not hesitate when they are cruel!

Mrs. Zhao came back soon. Mrs. Li and Mrs. Dong came together. They didn’t come over immediately. They knew that Mrs. Zhao’s mother and her mother-in-law had private conversations. Now Mrs. Zhao went out. , not only for etiquette, but also for Zhao's face.

Fang Shi listened to auntie twice, and was cheerful. What she knew best when she was a housekeeper was the greeting ceremony, "Auntie doesn't have anything good, don't dislike my auntie's bracelet."

Mrs. Fang pulled the bracelet off her wrist. The jade bracelet that she brought to the door today was also taken into account for the scholarly family. Gold is too tacky. One pair of bracelets, one for each person.

Dong shi recognized a good thing, a jade bracelet of good condition, "Thank you auntie."

Zhulan looked up at the roof, she was afraid that she would laugh out loud, Fang Shi also encountered the problem she encountered at the beginning, Li Shi couldn't take it!

Mrs Fang was embarrassed, Mrs Zhao held back her laughter and took the bracelet and stuffed it to her sister-in-law. Mrs Fang relieved the embarrassment and said dryly, "It's good to keep this bracelet on."

Mr. Li, "..."

Can she say that she has seriously lost weight? But after touching the three layers of flesh on her belly, she couldn't lose any more. Mother told her that with the physique of the Li family, it would be like this for a lifetime.

Li received the jade bracelet silently, and was mad in his heart, why did he send the jade bracelet! It’s okay to send gold and silver, she can at least find Yinlou to melt and customize what she can bring.

When I think that jade bracelets will be cheap for girls in the future, I can only watch that I can't wear them, which makes me sad!

Zhulan coughed. Mrs. Li was really sad. She comforted Mrs. Li and said, "Wait for your mother to find a jade bracelet you can wear in the future."

The big deal is that if you have money in the future, you can directly buy materials and take out what Li can bring!

Li's eyes are bright, and it's better for her mother-in-law, "Mother."

Zhulan wanted to touch Li's head very much, but she couldn't bear to bully him any more, "Okay, let's go grocery shopping!"

Li Shi responded crisply, "Hey!"

Zhulan hooked the corners of her mouth This is another joy!

Fang was stunned for a while, did the Zhou family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along like this? Didn't Mrs Li think it was her mother-in-law who coaxed her? I actually believed it, and I am very happy!

She didn't believe that the Yang family could be found. If the Zhou family was a wealthy family, she would believe it, but the Zhou family was a scholar with some background. Seeing the appearance of her daughter also believed, she smiled in her heart. She was struggling with what to do. The better, the happier she is!

Afterwards, Mrs. Zhao brought in a few more children, Mrs. Fang gave them greetings, all of which were one or two silver coins.

Zhulan twitched the corners of her mouth. She felt that the fortune of the Zhou family had always been prosperous!

At noon, Mrs. Li took out all her housekeeping skills in order to show face to the family of Zhou. There were 12 dishes on the table, all of which were cooked by Mrs. Li. Although they used mutton sent by the Qian family, Mrs. Li’s craftsmanship was very good. The Qian family was very satisfied.

After the meal, the Qian family left, and Zhulan said, "Qian Shengbao is here for his grandson? Do you want to study in the academy too?"
