Chapter 1409 Long Way to Go

Five days passed in a blink of an eye, Zhulan motioned Yao Yao to sit down, "Sit down quickly, let me see the twins."

Because of Rong Yumin's relationship, Yao Yao seldom came to the Zhou Mansion because she didn't have necessary things, and she didn't want to upset the old man.

Yao Yao pushed the back of the twin daughters, and said with a smile: "These two girls are still thinking about you at home, and I feel embarrassed when we get here."

Zhulan hugged the twins, and kissed each of them, saying: "The longer the two children grow, the better they can be distinguished."

"Yes, the big one looks like me, and the small one looks like their father."

Zhulan is rare enough and said to Yao Yao: "A few days ago, the old man was still talking about a few children. I asked Qingxue to take the twins to see the old man?"

Yao Yao is naturally willing, "Okay."

Zhulan waited for the child to leave, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Yao Yao nodded, "The two girls should be able to read and write. I was thinking about asking them for a husband. You also know that I seldom go out of the house, so I have the cheek to ask you to come here. Please help introduce a husband."

In fact, she is even rarer about Mr. Zhou's mansion, or sending her daughter to Zhou's mansion. It would be even better if she can get advice from the old lady. Unfortunately, no matter how thick-skinned she is, she dare not speak up. The Zhou family has helped the Hou's mansion too much these years.

Zhulan thought it was a big deal, she had the most experience in asking for a husband, and she was the one who found the husband in the family, so she already had a candidate in her heart.

Zhulan murmured, "Tomorrow I will invite Mr. to come to the house. If you come and see if it suits you, then stay. If it doesn't suit me, I will help you find it."

Yao Yao said shyly, "I've troubled you so much these years."

Zhulan waved her hand, "No trouble."

It's all trivial things, Rong Enqing and his wife are not greedy people.

In Lijia Village, the prince and his party left the village. Mingrui heard the sound of children reciting the Three-Character Sutra in the carriage. He opened the window and looked back. Almost all the children in the village came and saw them off with the Three-Character Sutra.

Mingrui's heart was full, and he stretched out his hand and waved. In just a few days, he and the children have made progress together. The children are literate, and he is the progress of thought.

Shangguan Liu didn't sit in his own carriage, but rubbed against Mingrui's carriage, "I'm touched."

Mingrui, "Well, what we think is trivial may be a major event that changes the fate of these children."

Shangguan Liu nodded, "Yes, when the children know how to write their names, I will never forget the eyes of the children."

He was deeply moved. He was born in a Shangguan family, and he was born with a responsibility. Reading and literacy is a necessary education, and there are too many children in the world. I can't even write my own name.

In the prince's carriage, King Qi looked at the prince when he heard the Three Character Classic. In the past few days, he would go to Zhou Mingrui's class if he had nothing to do. He uses the most characters, and when he is not teaching, he will tell the children what he has seen and heard along the way, so that the children can know the changes outside.

Zhou Mingrui would patiently answer the children's questions, tsk tsk, the Zhou family really knows how to raise children.

The prince's heart was touched a lot. His identity determines the overall situation of his thoughts. He saw the situation of the whole country from the children.

How many illiterate people are there in the whole country, no, how many literate people are there in the whole country?

The crown prince fell into deep thought. Now the court’s monthly brochures will carry some simple words. The little uncle said that those who want to read will have the opportunity to learn to read. Although there are only a few words in the monthly brochure, there will be a lot of accumulation over time. The little uncle also said that although the effect is slow, there is no effect if you don't do it.

When the prince thought of Zhou Shangshu teaching him, he mentioned some bad habits of the states. Thinking of the education that Zhou Shangshu said, the prince felt heavy in his heart, looked out of the carriage, and felt that there was a long way to go.

Qizhou, Chang Lian stood by the window, frowned and looked out the window worriedly, the wind was raging outside, many branches in the yard were broken, and the wind was mixed with bean-sized raindrops, which crackled on the glass, making people I was worried that the glass would shatter.

Mrs. Dong hugged her son,

He said worriedly: "It's the first time I've encountered such a strong wind after coming to Qizhou for several years."

The lantern hanging outside the door had long been blown to nowhere. Listening to the howling wind, Mrs. Dong couldn't help but look up at the roof.

Chang Lian patted the lady on the shoulder comfortingly, and held his son in his arms again, the little guy was terrified.

Not to mention the little guy, the servants in the family were all terrified and terrified.

The strong wind came and went quickly. There was no warning in ancient times, and many people in the city who had no time to escape were hit by the tiles blown up by the wind.

Chang Lian walked out of the house, and the exquisite courtyard was in a mess. Some of the flowers in the courtyard were broken, some petals were gone, and the bonsai also fell down. Fortunately, only two servants in the house were slightly injured. .

Dong patted her heart with lingering fear, "Scary."

Changlian said: "I'll go to the yamen to have a look."

Dong said worriedly: "Be careful."

Chang Lian nodded, "Go back to the house too, it's still raining, don't get cold."

"good."

Chang Lian went to the Yamen in a carriage and looked at the situation on the street. The situation in the city was not a big problem. He was more worried about the nearby villages.

Qiu Yan looked out the window in the household department of the capital, "The temperature this year is lower than the same period last year."

Zhou Shuren, "Yes."

Qiu Yan, "You said this year, bah bah, what am I thinking, this year must be a good year with good weather."

Zhou Shuren was not as optimistic as Qiu Yan. He remembered that there was a Little Ice Age in history, "You didn't come just to discuss the weather with me, did you?"

Naturally, Qiu Yan didn't come here to talk about the weather, "The emperor has already built four glass sheds this month, and according to the account books, he spent money for two more sheds."

Zhou Shuren, "What do you want to ask?"

Qiu Yan wanted to ask what these sheds were used for. The households of several sheds spent a lot of money, which showed how big each shed was.

Zhou Shuren did know that these sheds were wanted by the Supreme Emperor, and the sheds were used to cultivate high-quality grain seeds, and now the Supreme Emperor was focusing on crops.

Qiu Yan was not out of curiosity, but felt sorry for such a large expenditure, "I just feel sorry for you."

Zhou Shuren didn't feel distressed at all, "Don't ask, you will know after a while."

When Qiu Yan heard this, Master Shangshu, the most picky person in the household department, didn't feel distressed, so it was a good thing.

In the Wang family, Yulu's belly is getting bigger, and the baby will be born in a while. Yulu wants to go back to her mother's house for a few days, but she doesn't know how to speak.

The big aristocratic family is not good, there are too many worries, sister Yushuang can go back to her natal family to stay at any time after she gets married, but she can't.

Once she returns to her mother's house to stay for a few days, she still doesn't know what will come out, whether she has been angry at Wang's house, etc.

There are too many people in the Zhou family who are jealous, and they wish there would be more rumors about the Zhou family.

Yulu sighed depressingly. In the past, when Sister Yushuang was in the capital, she could visit her from time to time, but now she doesn't even have anyone to talk to. As for Wang Hua, forget it, she would rather stay by herself.

When Wang Wei came in, he saw the lady sighing, "Unhappy?"

Yulu shook her head, "I just miss Eldest Sister, and I don't know if Eldest Sister is doing well in Zhangzhou."
