The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 1757

In the blink of an eye, it was the day when the household department was taking a rest, and Zhou Shuren finally had time to read old master Wang's notes again. He had just read the beginning when Steward Ding came in.

Zhou Shuren put down the book, butler Ding lowered his head and said, "Master Luo, Lord Luo is here to visit, and he has already led him to the front hall."

A smile fell on Zhou Shuren's face, "Well, you go first."

Butler Ding felt that Master Hou was unhappy, and quickly retreated out. He disliked Mr. Luo the least among the families that were unfriendly to his Master Hou.

Seeing that Shuren was sitting still, Zhulan said, "Why don't you go and have a look?"

"Obviously they have something to ask of me, yet they are so ignorant of etiquette. In Boss Luo's heart, I am like a mirror reflecting their inaction. Since they don't respect me, let him wait!"

Zhu Lan, "It's true that I don't know etiquette. It's better for this person to leave."

Zhou Shuren hummed and said again: "He came to look for me because he was unwilling to become an official."

"His family has offended many people. In the past, he has often suppressed officials with ideas, and he always has to pay back those who come out to mess around."

Zhou Shuren sneered, "If you don't change, you are destined to be abandoned. Don't worry if you take your time. These diehards will disappear sooner or later when they lose their students."

Zhulan smiled, "All the officials transferred by the emperor in recent years have ideas, and none of them are unworthy of virtue."

The husband and wife were chatting, and no one asked about the situation in the front yard.

Boss Zhou is the son of the eldest son, and the visitors at home will notify him, but he doesn't care about asking, and Boss Zhou sits motionless, and he doesn't like Luo's family very much.

Mrs. Li asked, "Will it be rumored that the Hou's residence is ignorant of etiquette?"

Boss Zhou shook the rocking chair, "No, Dad is at home!"

Mrs. Li thought about it, she really didn't have to worry about her father-in-law, "I don't know how my younger brother and Minghui are doing in my hometown, and Minghui didn't write back either."

Boss Zhou is indeed partial to Xiangniang's son, so this kid can detain his private house from him, "It's like you haven't written a single letter after you go on like this. Didn't you still have a letter a few days ago?" Send the letter back?"

Mrs. Li snorted, "A letter with only a few lines is also a letter?"

"That's because your son doesn't want to write, so my younger brother has written a lot."

Mrs. Li, "It doesn't seem like it's your son.

"

"Yes, yes, our son is also the most difficult one."

Mrs. Li was speechless and said that the old son was the lifeblood, but their eldest son was not. Son loves to eat!

I have eaten all over this restaurant the size of the capital city, and all my money has been spent on eating, and I am very ambitious that I will travel around the country when I grow up, bah, obviously I eat all over the country!

After another half an hour, Zhou Shuren went to the front hall to meet Mrs. Luo slowly.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Shuren saw the boss with an upturned beard, he was angry, "The boss really surprised me."

Thinking of the purpose of coming, Mrs. Luo finally suppressed the anger in his heart, "Master Hou wants to stand and talk to the old man?"

Of course Zhou Shuren wouldn't stand still, but there was more sarcasm in his heart. It can be seen that Mrs. Luo said that he was high-spirited, as if he didn't care about power, and every time he satirized him, he was very shameless.

Shuren walked to the main seat and sat down, and said to the servant: "Come over for a new tea, um, low-fire tea."

Master Luo squeezed the handle of the chair hard, luckily, he waited for the boy to leave and said: "Marquis Zhou has won the trust of the emperor, I ask Marquis Zhou to help me if I have something to do."

Zhou Shuren, "Tell me?"

Boss Luo's face was sullen, and he tried his best to show a smile, "Say a few kind words for the old man, this is a thank you gift."

As he spoke, he took out a gift list from his sleeve.

Zhou Shuren didn't accept the gift list, instead he said playfully, "Does your face hurt?"

"What does Lord Hou mean by this?"

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Isn't the boss the most disrespectful of me? Now I need my help to admit my ability, isn't it just talking about it?"

Boss Luo blushed, and he didn't want to come. Zhouhou's Mansion was not his first choice. He visited a few people who could help, but the result was not satisfactory. I don't see him.

Tried everything that could be tried, and came to the Hou Mansion only after being forced to do so.

Boss Luo took a deep breath, "I really offended you a lot in the past, so I ask Lord Hou to help me for the sake of serving the court for many years."

Since Zhou Shuren talked with the emperor last time, he hasn't paid attention to the Luo family. Wouldn't it be nice to have more time to solve some errands?

Zhou Shuren sneered, "You and I have been officials in the same dynasty for many years. I really can't remember your achievements if you don't tell me. Let me listen to it now."

Silence, the guards outside the door looked at each other, then quickly lowered their heads and remained motionless.

Boss Luo blushed, merit, the reason why he has come to this day has his ancestors, "This old man presided over the imperial examination and selected talents for the imperial court."

Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief, angry, this old guy presided over the imperial examination when the country was first established, his head hurts just thinking about it, the questions he asked were all solidified, and the selected talents can be imagined, "Oh, then the emperor will never again It was presided over by an adult."

Boss Luo blushed with anger, "You humiliated me."

Zhou Shuren's eyes hurt. He used to hate old things, and he didn't feel very comfortable when he was done. It was indeed a mistake to come to the front hall, "Please go back."

Master Luo also wanted to shake his sleeves and leave, but he couldn't, "How can you help me?"

Zhou Shuren, "..."

His attitude is still not clear?

Mr. Luo looked at the gift list, "I can double it."

Zhou Shuren smiled angrily. Look, this man has never been worried about his achievements. He has never changed after he is determined to be who he is. In the eyes of this person, the background of his family is unclear, and his face turned cold, "Your Majesty, you should ask yourself what you have done for the people. Since there are steps to be followed if you are not worthy of virtue, it is better to continue, so as not to lose all face in the end."

Boss Luo was trembling with anger, "You"

"What about me? I stand upright, I am not afraid of being criticized, I have a clear conscience for the people and the country, can you do it? You can't, whether it is in the history books of later generations or the people of the current dynasty, you are like a shit stick. guest."

With that said, Zhou Shuren flung his sleeves and left, and then heard the sound of the teacup falling to the ground.

Zhou Shuren just stepped over the threshold, without turning his head, "Remember to pay for the teacup before you leave. The tea set comes as a set, and the boss remembers the money for the whole set of tea sets."

Then he said to Steward Ding, "Wrap up the rest of the tea set for the old man."

Butler Ding was stupid. He followed Lord Hou all the way to this day, and it was the first time he saw Lord Hou angry at others at home. When he regained his senses, he straightened up and felt refreshed. The servant went to pack the tea set.

In the main courtyard, Zhulan could tell at a glance that Shuren was angry, "Are you mad?"

Zhou Shuren, "Well, shameless, do you think he has no virtue in himself?"

Zhulan grinned, "If he had a chance, he would have given way to others."

Zhou Shuren also laughed, "The appointment of the Luo family as an official is also a signal. The Luo family's tossing has made many people vigilant, and someone must have given an idea behind it."

Zhulan said: "So they should be happy, because they finally realized that they are not worthy."

Zhou Shuren's final gloom dissipated, "But it's not yet time."
