The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 152 A Incidental Gift

The next day, Zhou Shuren took Ming and Qing out to socialize. Only Zhulan and two children were left at home. Wu Li's family was also busy, and relatives came to the door together. After breakfast, they hurried back. The family no longer needed to bring food back.

Xuehan was embroidering a handkerchief, "Mom, the family should know that Dad passed the exam!"

Zhulan put down the divided thread, "En."

Fatty Ming Teng held the biscuit in his hand, "Grandma, are we going home?"

He likes Pingzhou very much. He eats several dishes in Pingzhou, and his grandfather has more dishes for exams. He has snacks every day and eats many delicacies that he has never eaten before. He doesn't want to go home.

Zhulan, "You don't want to go home? You don't want Mingyun, you don't want your parents?"

Ming Teng is very straightforward, "My parents don't think about eating and drinking at home, and my elder brother doesn't even think about it."

Catch him to study every day, the days without big brother are too carefree.

Ming Teng glanced at grandma and added, "And my parents won't miss me either."

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

This is the truth. Mrs. Li's own rambunctious temper can't stand her son's fuss. The boss put up with Mrs. Li, and the number of Ming Teng is beyond the tolerance range. These two people really don't think about Ming Teng, this cheating child Also poor baby.

Xuehan was amused by his nephew, "You don't want to go home, we all go back and leave you in Pingzhou?"

Ming Teng said pitifully, "Grandma, can't we not go back?"

"cannot."

Ming Teng covered his head with his fat hands, put on his shoes, and ran away quickly, but Zhulan didn't understand, "What's wrong with him?"

Xuehan suppressed a smile, "Ming Yun arranged for him to trace the red. These days, he has been playing crazy, and he has long forgotten the trace. He knows that he must go home, so he hastened to make up the trace."

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

This kid went around in a circle, a large part of which was unfinished homework, he was afraid that he would be repaired by Mingyun when he went back!

In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren and Ming Qing came back, Zhulan looked at Zhou Shuren carrying the gift box, "What did you buy? Who do you want to give it to?"

Zhou Shuren nodded the gift box, "I didn't buy it, Shi Qing gave it to me, not only gave it to me, but also Ming and Qing Dynasties."

Zhulan put on her shoes and went down to the ground, "How did you meet him?"

Zhou Shuren motioned Zhulan to look at the gift box, and continued: "Our schedule has been under the control of others. It is too easy to find us. I gave it by the way, mainly for Wu Ming. Ming and Qing are also there, so I got a gift for nothing." .”

Zhulan had already opened the gift box, and inside was a pair of jade bracelets. Zhulan picked it up and played with it, "This Mr. Shi is not simple. Our family affairs are quite clear. If you know how to give it to you, you might as well give it to me. Speaking of which, this Is the incidental gift worth such an expense? The Shi family is an imperial merchant, so why shouldn't they please a scholar in advance? If Wu Ming is justified, young and promising, isn't it too early?"

Zhou Shuren used to be jewelry and knew a lot about the value of jewelry. He estimated the value at a glance. The price of this pair of jade bracelets is around 30 taels. The jewelry you brought me to buy."

Zhulan laughed, and Shi Qing gave her jewelry. She is Shi Qing's elder in terms of age. Could it be what Wang Ru said!"

She really has no confidence in Wang Ru. Without the cover of words, Wang Ru is really stupid. It is not impossible to kill herself!

Zhou Shuren explained: "I've been in Pingzhou for so long, and I've been inquiring about the Shi family. The imperial merchants sound like they have a high status, but they are actually the money bags of the superiors. The Shi family's backing is ruthless. It is said that they take away most of the money they earn every year. , this son of the Shi family, unwilling to be manipulated all the time, boldly made reforms. Rather than saying that his aunt wanted to avenge his son and wanted to kill Shi Qing, it would be better to say that someone killed him through the hands of Shi Qing's aunt, and experienced death. Shi Qing doesn't dare to act rashly anymore, so he has to avoid the Shi family to manage his own contacts, no matter what aspects of Wu Ming, Shi Qing should have investigated clearly, and because he is optimistic, he gave the gift in advance."

Zhulan followed Zhou Shuren's words and said, "He is holding Wang Ru, but he also intends to use Wang Ru as his trump card, so he should throw it out when necessary!"

Zhou Shuren drank his tea and said playfully, "It's interesting, the text of the novel is really too one-sided. This Mr. Shi, even if Wang Ru didn't have the grace to save his life in advance, Wang Ru is not as good as his own in his heart. He should use it." Time will never be soft, this is the reality, it is impossible to expect Shi Qing, the only son of the Shi family, to kill his brother and become the only son of the Shi family."

Zhulan can no longer look directly at the novel, because she only comes into contact with real people, "However, no matter how powerful Wu Ming is, if he wants to get a high position for many years, can Shi Qing afford it?"

Zhou Shuren, "Shi Qing is not very old, is he? It's a pity that he is a businessman, otherwise he would have a place in the imperial examination with this kind of thinking."

Zhulan asked, "Did Wu Ming accept it?"

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Accept it, why not accept it, Wu Ming has adapted well, and when he becomes a Juren, more people will seek asylum and come to give gifts, and now there is no need to promise anything, it's no big deal."

Zhulan closed the gift box, "No wonder it is said that a poor scholar is a rich man."
