Chapter 1678 Luck

After Zhulan's words fell, Zhao's tears flowed even more fiercely, if not for the many people in the room, Zhao would have already checked her son carefully.

Mingrui was not fat and thin, and his clothes looked empty, his face was pale, and the blue eyes were especially obvious.

Zhulan signaled Mingrui to sit down, stretched out her hand to hold her grandson's arm, felt that there was not much flesh left, "Why are you so skinny?"

Fortunately, the grandson's eyes are particularly bright, and his spirit is not bad.

Mingrui knew with a guilty conscience that he couldn't hide it, "My grandson got sick outside, and he never got better after he recovered."

Zhulan felt even more distressed, "You have worked hard all the way, no matter how much you raise her, it's better to be at home comfortably, second daughter-in-law, don't cry, hurry up and ask the doctor to show Mingrui."

Mrs. Zhao wiped away her tears, "Daughter-in-law, let someone hire a doctor."

Lin Qing looked at her husband nervously, afraid that he would leave some root cause of illness. Seeing his wife twisting the veil anxiously, and looking at her comfortingly, Mingrui slowly let go of her uneasiness.

Zhulan didn't wait for the doctor, "It seems that this journey has yielded a lot."

Mingrui said with a sad tone, "My grandson consciously knows a lot about the sufferings of ordinary people, but this time when I went out, I realized that my grandson has seen too little. From the orphans, my grandson knows that there are too many invisible sufferings."

It is said that there is a state of prosperity now, but there are still a lot of orphans, and some states have conditions for accepting orphans.

Zhulan, "It will gradually get better."

Mingrui hugged her daughter and squeezed her hand, "Grandma, some states refuse to accept orphans."

The status gap between men and women, he has seen too many injustices along the way, and because he has a daughter, he has a lot of feelings.

Zhulan, "Grandma is very happy that you can find the problem. Only when you find out can you change it."

Mingrui's eyes lit up, "Grandson understands."

The doctor came very quickly, and carefully examined Mingrui's pulse. Mingrui's illness was cured, but his body was weak during the journey and needed to be taken care of. The doctor prescribed a prescription for strengthening his body.

Zhulan felt sorry for her grandson, and asked her to go to rest first, and we can talk about it tomorrow. Mingrui carried the child back to the second room, and Zhulan looked through her grandson's notes along the way.

The notes describe what the grandson has seen and heard, and she can see from the lines that the grandson attaches great importance to education.

In the second room, Mingrui took out the gift he brought back, "Mother, you heard what the doctor said just now, my son has not left any root cause of the disease, please stop crying, and quickly take a look at the gift my son brought back for you."

As he spoke, Mingrui signaled his younger brother to persuade his mother.

Ming Feng tugged on Mother's sleeve, "Mother, you should be happy that brother is back."

Zhao's tears could not be controlled, and the mother was worried when her son traveled thousands of miles, so she felt uncomfortable, "Okay, okay, don't cry."

Mingrui was not short of money, his married mother gave him some properties and money, and he had monthly money at home, plus he had saved enough money before, so he brought a lot of money with him when he went out, and bought a lot of gifts along the way.

Mrs. Zhao likes embroidery. Touching the double-sided embroidered white jade fan, "It must have cost a lot of money."

Mingrui smiled, "As long as Mom likes it."

Mrs. Zhao really likes it, and everyone says that her daughter is caring, her son is no better than her daughter's tea, and the gifts she buys are all her favorites.

Ming Feng also liked his gift, "Thank you, brother."

Not to mention Lin Qing, she has a sweet heart, and the husband will only remember her preferences if he has her in his heart.

Mingrui was quite tired, Mrs. Zhao didn't hold on to her son, and signaled him to go back to rest, Mingrui carried her daughter back to her yard.

The hot water in the yard has already been boiled, so Mingrui went to take a bath first.

Lin Qing waited outside, waiting for Xianggong to come out and brush his hair by herself, "Go to sleep in a while."

Mingrui said: "I'm not at home, I've worked hard for you."

Lin Qing shook her head,

"I don't work hard, it's my mother who works hard."

She married into Zhouhou's mansion as if she married into Fuwo. Grandma was sincere to her mother-in-law, and mother-in-law treated her like a daughter. Her mother-in-law was more careful with her when her husband was not at home. Minghui, who has a daughter who doesn't want to marry into Zhouhou's mansion.

In the evening, Zhou Shuren came back and found out that Mingrui was still sleeping, so he signaled Changyi not to wake Mingrui up.

Changyi also felt sorry for his son. After seeing his son let him rest well, he said to his wife, "Give those banknotes to Mingrui. This child doesn't have much money left."

Mrs. Zhao estimated the money of the gift, "Mingrui won't spend all his money buying gifts."

"I heard from my mother that Rui spent a lot of money on orphanages in various states along the way."

Mrs. Zhao wanted to say whether she was on a business trip or doing good deeds. Thinking of the orphans in various states, she sighed and said, "I'll give it to Mingrui tomorrow."

Changyi was in a good mood, "If I knew Mingrui would be here, I would have let him take the imperial examination."

"If you really take part in the imperial examination, you probably won't have a son."

Chang Yi thought about it too, "Haha, you're right."

There are several houses in the Zhou family, the sons of the eldest brother, Ming Yun is the eldest grandson who occupies important resources in the Marquis, and can stand up on his own now, Ming Teng is a titled Marquis, Ming Hui and Ming Jing have two older brothers, so don’t worry.

The third brother's son is young, and the fourth brother's son is not in a hurry. Only his son needs resources.

It's all right now, he doesn't have to worry anymore.

The next day, Zhou Shuren met Rong Enqing in the early court, and Rong Enqing's ability to go to court was obviously ordered by the emperor.

The ministers of the court looked at Rong Enqing more or less. This man had been out on business for half a year, and he went to the court as soon as he came back. They all guessed the emperor's intentions.

The emperor did not talk about it in the court, leaving Rong Enqing and several ministers such as Zhou Shuren.

When we arrived at the government hall, the emperor twirled the beads, "I thought a lot about it last night."

Looking at the big from the small, the situation of orphans in each state mirrors the management of the entire state, some of which comforted him, and some of which made him angry.

The emperor continued: "This is a note written by Marquis Rong, all my loves, take a good look at it."

When it was Zhou Shuren's turn, the notebook not only wrote about the situation of orphans in each state, but also wrote about the state's economy and people's living conditions.

No wonder the emperor asked Rong Enqing to go to court, this is not just a matter of orphans.

The emperor put his hands behind his back, "Our country is vast and rich in resources, I can't see the whole world in the capital, and I think of the water thief again. The mutual protection of officials makes my heart ache."

The ministers in the hall were extraordinarily quiet, and their breathing was much lighter. Everyone in the room has encountered gift-giving, and only you know if you took it or not.

The emperor didn't want to get to the bottom of it, as the water was clear and there would be no fish, as long as it wasn't too much, he usually turned a blind eye.

Zhou Shuren glanced at Rong Enqing, Rong Enqing kept his head down and remained motionless.

The emperor typed a few words, took out the basic roster, "Everyone have a look."

Zhou Shuren is familiar with it. This is the roster of orphans’ internships. It is recorded once every five days. Looking at the roster, the orphans start to practice in a hurry. After getting familiar with it, the efficiency will increase. Zhou Shuren saw the girls’ roster and checked carefully. The girls are meticulous in their work. The reviews are good.

The emperor read it all and said: "In just a few days, I saw the potential of the children, and even more so, the importance of Zhuangzi's education."

Several ministers also saw it, and they all understood what the emperor meant, and the change was about to begin.
