The latest website: The next morning, the whole family got up early, and after breakfast, Zhulan checked that the tributes to the ancestors were not left behind, and the whole family returned to Zhoujia Village.
The Zhou family has an ancestral hall. Zhou Shurenzhong first went to the ancestral hall to worship, and then took the elder Zhou and several sons, as well as Mingyun Mingteng to the grave on the mountain to worship his original parents.
Zhulan took a few daughters-in-law to meet the female relatives of the clan in the old house. Zhou Shuren raised them and bought land for the clan.
If it wasn't for the fact that the patriarch had been working hard for the family, Zhou Shuren would have already overpowered the patriarch.
The Zhou Wang clan also listened to the old man's words and realized that Zhou Shuren was a scheming man. Zhou Shuren took the initiative to return to the clan, and he was calculating the entire Zhou clan. He had won the favor of the clan by offering books and now he bought fields to win people's hearts. deep.
After hearing this, the Zhou Wang family was angry, because the status of their family was threatened, and the old man was not happy, but the old man was happy again, happy that the Zhou family had a capable person, and the Zhou family would become a big family in the future. Better than the Dong family!
Don't mention how complicated Zhou Wang's heart is. Being angry is angry, but he can't show it. In the future, his grandson will rely on Zhou Shuren to support him!
Zhulan kept looking at Zhou Wangshi, but Zhou Wangshi didn't say much when she came. She understood the gap in Zhou Wangshi's heart. If Zhou Wangshi could come along and smile at her, Zhou Wangshi's heart was very strong. , not everyone can adjust their mentality overnight.
Zhulan poured tea and handed it to Zhou Wangshi, "Auntie, have a cup of tea."
Zhou Wangshi took back his mind and suppressed the complexities in his heart. Zhou Shuren and his wife were not simple. He brought tea to her with both hands, which means they still respect her, and took it with a smile, "It's hard for you to pour tea for me."
As soon as Zhulan was obedient, she curled her lips, "Don't say that I am now a wife, even if I really become an official wife, you are still my aunt, and I will still pour tea for you."
Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Yang seriously. Mrs. Yang was not joking, but took a sip of tea. "This tea is delicious. Auntie waits for you to pour tea for Auntie."
Bamboo Orchid, "This is nature."
Zhou Wang's family was completely relieved. She was afraid that Yang's identity had changed, and her attitude towards their elders in the clan had also changed. Fortunately, she did not see the wrong person.
Zhulan said in her heart, she is not stupid, Zhou Shuren is the time to win people's hearts, and she is not a person who gains power or doesn't know who she is.
Furthermore, although the Zhou Wang clan and the clan chief have more or less problems, most of them are worthy of respect, and Zhulan admires the spirit of the two of them worrying about the clan.
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren discussed it, and Zhongju is no longer a big deal in his hometown. He only invited the elders of the clan to have a meal, and there were only three tables.
Zhulan didn't let Mrs. Li cook either. After the eldest and second Zhou returned, Zhulan asked them to go to the restaurant in the county to order three tables of banquets.
There are not enough tables and chairs in the old house. The neighbors borrowed them. Each table has twelve dishes, all of which are famous dishes in the restaurant. After ordering the banquet, the plates are ready-made. After eating, just brush it and send it back to the restaurant, of course If you need to pay a deposit, you can not send it, but the deposit is gone, and the deposit left is far more than the money on the plate!
Good wine and good food, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, modern time, and it was almost four o'clock after the Li family had finished packing, and they returned to Lijia Village at four o'clock.
The Zhou family was used to three meals. If they didn’t eat at night, they would be hungry at night. After returning to the house, they rested for an hour. The Li family made the noodles with fried sauce and the noodle soup with crucian carp for Xuemei alone.
Early the next morning, Zhou Shuren took Mr. Zhou back to the village to buy land, just in time for the transfer to meet the county magistrate.
Dong Shi and Chang Lian also packed up the things they brought back from Pingzhou, and Zhou Lao Er drove the carriage to send the young couple to the county office.
Only Zhulan and Zhao were left at home. Li returned to her mother's house. This time, she won't be able to come back after the Chinese New Year. Li wanted to spend more time with her parents.
Zhulan and Zhao were sitting together to make clothes. Zhulan wanted to make more clothes for the two children before they left, especially since winter is coming, she must prepare cotton jackets and cotton pants.
Zhao peeked at her mother-in-law several times, thinking to her husband that it would be good to learn from the sister-in-law, and express her thoughts frankly, so that her mother-in-law could focus more on her, "Mother, don't worry, I will take good care of her. Big sister's."
Zhulan bit off the thread, took it again and said, "Among the three daughters-in-law, you are the most attentive, I believe you."
Zhao received her mother-in-law's affirmation, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help turning up, "Mother goes to the capital to take care of herself."
Only then did Zhulan remember what she had overlooked. Juren can use servants. In fact, this rule is quite tricky. It is completely aimed at students from poor families. Students from official families are not juren but also servants. Well, it can be used. Speaking of fighting fathers, there are no good ancestors and good fathers, so I can only fight on my own.
The ancient times were the thorough interpretations of Ping Daddy. In ancient times, there was a good father who would directly end his life!
Take the Zhou family as an example. Unconsciously, they changed their father. After only two years of work, the fate of the Zhou family's sons has changed, and the future of the Zhou family's grandchildren has been planned!
Seeing that her mother was distracted, Zhao saw that her mother was about to pierce her hand, so she hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold the needle, "Mother."
Zhulan returned to her senses and looked down, almost stabbed herself in the hand, "Look, I'm distracted."
Zhao shi didn't think much about it, she just thought that her mother was getting old and it was normal to be distracted.
Fortunately, Zhulan didn't know what Zhao was thinking, otherwise she would have to vomit blood. She is not yet forty, she is only thirty-eight, thirty-eight this year, and she is still thirty-eight years old, and she is only thirty-seven years old!
Xuehan asked, "Mother, are you worried about your life in the capital?"
Zhulan shook her head, "No, mother is thinking that our family can buy slaves. I'm thinking about buying a family of slaves."
Xuehan was stunned. She really didn't expect that their family could already use slaves. With slaves, she would become a real young lady?
Mrs. Zhao almost pierced her hand and bowed her head in a hurry. She thought of her own mother, who had been a slave. She felt that her fate was amazing. From worrying about her own destiny, she now has a loving husband and son who are both perfect. After a long time, their family used slaves.
Xuehan didn't understand, "Why did mother buy a family's servants?"
Zhu Lan said: "Because it's easy to control I have all the slave contracts of the whole family, and they dare not have any crooked thoughts, otherwise the whole family will be harmed. Mother told you that in the future, the choice will be Servants, first, don’t want to be single servants, and second, don’t want servants from big families, especially those who are resold.”
Xuehan didn't understand, "Why?"
Zhulan said: "There are too many unknown and unknown factors for single servants, so be careful not to ask for them. Most of the people resold by big families are servants who commit crimes. They are either cheating people or people with deep scheming. You must know that loyal servants are very important. Less resale."
Of course, there are also loyal servants who were framed, but unfortunately the chances are too small. The masters of big families are not fools, and they all like loyal servants.
Xuehan was surprised, "There are so many things to say about buying a servant!"
Zhulan smiled, "The knowledge in it is great. Mother tells you, in the future, if you choose a girl, don't choose someone who is strong in everything. No matter how loyal you are, don't choose someone who can only do things. No matter how good your work is, it's not good."
