Chapter 1062 Good-Natured
The emperor hummed, "It's still money. If the money is enough to continue planning, the life of the people in the city will be much easier."
Zhou Shuren remained silent, don't mention the money to him, he just got a sum of money, and he is staring at it, if he hadn't written a booklet about what might happen this year, he wouldn't be able to keep the money.
The emperor didn't hear the answer, so he couldn't help being happy, "Shuren, I just mentioned it later, I'm old, the prince is fine now, let the prince worry about it in the future."
Zhou Shuren smiled dryly, "The household department really has no money."
The emperor said faintly: "It's still poor, ten years of war, no, plus the last period of the last dynasty's court was fatuous, and the people were miserable. After so many years, it's hard to recover all at once."
Zhou Shuren was silent, ten years of war killed and injured too many adult men, too many strong laborers were killed and injured, too many villages became widow villages, without strong laborers, even if there were fields, how much tax could the court collect in a year?
Zhou Shuren thought for a while and said, "There will be a day of prosperity."
He wished he could see it, and now there were signs of prosperity.
The emperor's tone was relaxed, "Yes, there will be a day of prosperity. After all, Shuren is my lucky general."
If there is no Zhou Shuren, he knows that there will be no sign of a prosperous age, and when chaos really arises, he will be beaten back to his original form after years of self-cultivation.
Zhou Shuren said, "I'm terrified, but I'm just doing my duty."
The emperor smiled, and when he was talking, he had reached the gate of the city. Zhou Shuren wanted to go back to the household department, and the emperor wanted to check around, so the two separated.
In the Zhou family, Xuemei was worried, "Mother, this rainy day will never end."
"Is your mother-in-law moaning again at home?"
Xuemei nodded, "I have bought a lot of land. My mother-in-law and father-in-law are worried. They have to pay taxes a year. If the harvest is not good, it will be a waste of hard work."
Zhulan thought for a while, "I'm going to let Zhuangzi raise some ducks, and you should let your in-laws raise them too."
Xuemei said, "My in-laws want to raise a few more pigs."
Zhulan, "It's fine, but we need to build a shed. It rains a lot, so the piglets won't get sick. A piglet is worth a lot of money."
There was a slight smile on Xuemei's face, "Mother, don't worry, my in-laws will take good care of these piggies."
Zhulan hummed, and handed the clothes she made to her daughter, "This is clothes for Miu Miao, you take them back to her."
Xuemei thought of Xianggong's reply, "Mother, Jiang Ming's son, do you still remember?"
Zhulan naturally remembered that she had stayed at home, "Why did you mention him all of a sudden?"
Xuemei explained: "My lord came home. He was teaching ethnology. He liked that child. This time I went back and chatted a lot. I heard that someone came to say goodbye, so my lord mentioned a few words to me. Miao Miao's age Not too young, mother, what do you think of Jiang Ming's son?"
She has no ambitions, so naturally she doesn't want her daughter to marry through her natal family. She thinks that in the Jiang family's situation, it's better for her daughter to marry a similar family.
Zhulan was surprised, "Huh? I thought you were going to say Mu Lan for Jiang Du!"
Xuemei smiled, "It's also good to kiss and kiss."
Zhulan suddenly understood her daughter's plan. When the Jiang family's daughter married, the Jiang family would only treat Miao Miao better. In addition to the Jiang family's situation, the Jiang family's son could not borrow much, and could rely on Changlian. But Changlian is Xuemei's younger brother, and Jiang's family has a simple population, and Xuemei has helped Jiang's family for many years. This is kindness.
Jiang Sheng has also taught Jiang Muchen for many years, and after many considerations, it really suits Xuemei's mind.
Zhulan thought about Ran Zheng's temptations a few days ago, that the Ran family was indeed not a good marriage, and after thinking about it, she said: "As parents, it's good that you have the numbers."
Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that her mother would disagree, so she suggested tactfully, "Mother, I have watched the two children of Jiang's family grow up. There are ups and downs. The two children have no complaints. They can study and live hard. The two children have a good heart." , This is what my daughter values more, especially Mu Lan, you said that the eldest daughter-in-law is very important, and Mu Lan has experienced so much at such a young age, she is suitable for the eldest daughter-in-law."
If it wasn't for Xianggong's mention of going to Jiang's house to say that there are many relatives, she wouldn't be in such a hurry. According to her intention, let nature take its course and wait.
Zhulan patted her daughter's hand, "Mother believes in your vision."
The eldest daughter has big ideas, as if her own daughters have big ideas.
Xuemei was a little anxious to write back to Xianggong, "The daughter will write back when she gets back, and ask Xianggong to chat with Jiang Ming. It's not suitable to be engaged now. Xianggong has to take the provincial examination and wait for next year."
Zhulan thought for a while, "Don't just send the letter back, if you want to, give the two children some needed gifts and send them back together with the letter."
Xuemei was already thinking about what to send home, the boys would just do it with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Mu Lan would send some delicate jewelry.
In Ninghou's Mansion, the emperor sat opposite Ning Xu. Ning Xu's heart was very complicated. He could see all the ups and downs in his heart, and he could see his son's reaction. Obviously, his son had guessed his real life experience.
What does it mean that the emperor is coming now? He finally became a father, and now that he is going to be a grandfather, he will become a lonely person again?
The emperor drank ginger tea to relieve the cold, stared at Ning Xu, "Rong Chuan has already guessed."
Ning Xu's voice was deep, "I know."
The emperor knew how good Ning Xu was and Rong Chuan, and he also knew that Ning Xu really said that Rong Chuan was his son. How to speak, he didn't come to Zha Ning Xuxin.
Ning Xu knew that there would be such a day sooner or later, but he just felt uncomfortable. The affection he put in doesn't mean that he can get it back, "Your Majesty, Rong Chuan is very good in Ninghou Mansion."
The emperor's eyes were sharp, and then calm again, as if the sharpness just now was an illusion, "You are his third uncle, Rong Chuan is naturally fine."
Ning Xu moved his lips, his father's calculation was very good, but unfortunately, he miscalculated the emperor, the emperor was too kind to Rong Chuan, this child Rong Chuan was smart, he guessed his life experience early.
The whereabouts of the emperor leaving the palace is not a secret, everyone knows that the emperor has gone to the Ninghou mansion, there is no taboo at all, and he has never left.
When Liang Wang got the news, he didn't find any news for half a month, so he was so angry, and Qi Wang and Chu Wang were also checking, he became even more irritable, "Rong Chuan, do you think the father is waiting for you?" Go back home?"
At the last gathering, he had a lump in his heart, and he let it go since Rong Chuan hadn't entered the palace for half a month, and now the bump was getting bigger and bigger, and his intuition told him that his father didn't leave because of Rong Chuan.
Rong Chuan was flustered in his heart, "I don't know."
Liang Wang stared at Rong Chuan carefully, he felt that he should find someone to draw a portrait of Mr. Ning, otherwise, he couldn't suppress the strange feeling in his heart.
