Chapter 310 Older
The latest website: Early the next morning, the whole family got up early. After breakfast, Zhulan checked that there were no tributes for ancestor worship, and the whole family went back to Zhoujia Village.
The Zhou family has an ancestral hall, and Zhou Shuren Zhongju first went to the ancestral hall to pay homage, and then took the sons of Boss Zhou and Ming Yun Ming Teng to the grave on the mountain to pay homage to his original parents.
Zhulan took a few daughters-in-law to meet the family members of the clan in the old house. Zhou Shuren won the election and bought land for the clan. The status of the Zhou family in the clan was close to that of the patriarch's family.
If the patriarch hadn't been working hard for the clan, Zhou Shuren would have overwhelmed the patriarch long ago.
The Zhou Wang family also listened to the old man's words, only to realize that Zhou Shuren is a scheming man. Zhou Shuren took the initiative to return to the clan, and he was plotting against the entire Zhou clan. From the fact that he won the favor of the clan by offering books, he now bought land to win people's hearts. Zhou Shuren was too scheming every step of the way. deep.
The Zhou Wang family was angry when they heard this, because the status of their family was threatened, and the old man was not happy, but the old man was happy, glad that the Zhou family had a capable person, and the Zhou family would become a big family in the future. Better than the Dong family!
Don't mention how complicated Zhou Wang's heart is. Anger is anger, but he can't show it. In the future, his grandson will have to rely on Zhou Shuren to support him!
Zhulan kept looking at Zhou Wang from the corner of her eyes, but Zhou Wang didn't say much when she came. She understood the gap in Zhou Wang's heart. Zhou Wang could come with her and smile at her. Zhou Wang's heart is very strong. , Not everyone can adjust their mentality overnight.
Zhulan personally poured the tea and handed it to Mrs. Zhou, "Auntie, have a cup of tea."
Zhou Wang withdrew her mind and suppressed the complications in her heart. Zhou Shuren and his wife were not easy. He brought tea to her with both hands, which meant that he still respected her. He took it with a smile, "It's hard for you to pour tea for me."
As soon as Zhulan was obedient, she had something to say, she curled her lips, "Don't say I am Juren's wife now, even if I really become an official wife, you are still my aunt, and I will still pour you tea."
Zhou Wang looked at Yang earnestly. Yang didn't just joke around, but took a sip of tea, "This tea is delicious. Auntie will pour tea for auntie after you."
Zhulan, "This is nature."
Zhou Wangshi was completely relieved, she was afraid that Yang's status would change, and her attitude towards them, the elders in the clan, would also change. Fortunately, she didn't misjudge people.
Zhulan thought in her heart, she is not stupid, Zhou Shuren is the time to win people's hearts, and she is not someone who doesn't know who she is once she becomes powerful.
In addition, although the Zhou Wang family and the patriarch have some flaws, most of them are worthy of respect. Zhulan admires their spirit of caring for the clan.
After Zhulan and Zhou Shuren discussed, the Zhongju will not be held in her hometown, but only invite the elders of the clan to have a meal, only three tables.
Zhulan also didn't let Mrs. Li cook. After Zhou Boss and Zhou Laoer came back, Zhulan asked them to book three tables in a restaurant in the county.
There are not enough tables and chairs in the old house, and the neighbors borrowed them. Each table has twelve dishes, all of which are famous dishes of the restaurant. After ordering a banquet, the plates are all ready-made. After eating, just brush them and send them back to the restaurant, of course. If you have to pay a deposit, you don't have to send it, but the deposit is gone, and the deposit left far exceeds the money on the plate!
Good wine and good food. It was three o'clock in the afternoon in the modern time. It was almost four o'clock after the Li family finished packing, and they didn't return to Lijia Village until four o'clock.
The Zhou family is used to three meals. If they don’t eat at night, they must be hungry at night. After returning to the house, they rested for an hour. Mrs. Li made noodles with fried sauce, and made crucian carp noodle soup for Xuemei alone.
Early the next morning, Zhou Shuren took Boss Zhou back to the village to buy land, and happened to transfer the ownership to see the county magistrate.
Dong Shi and Chang Lian also packed up the things they brought back from Pingzhou, and Zhou Laoer drove the carriage to send the young couple to the county government.
Only Zhulan and Mrs. Zhao are left in the family. Mrs. Li has gone back to her mother's house. This time, she will not be able to come back after the Chinese New Year. Mrs. Li wants to spend more time with her parents.
Zhulan and Mrs. Zhao sat together making clothes, Zhulan wanted to make more clothes for the two children before leaving, especially since winter was coming, she must prepare cotton-padded jackets and trousers.
Mrs. Zhao secretly glanced at her mother-in-law several times, thinking about her husband and saying, it is good to be like a sister-in-law, and to express her own thoughts straightforwardly, so that her mother-in-law can focus more on her, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of her." Big sister's."
Zhulan bit off the thread, took the thread again and said: "You are the most careful among the three daughters-in-law, I trust you."
Mrs. Zhao was affirmed by her mother-in-law, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up, "Mother has to take care of herself when she goes to the capital."
It was only then that Zhulan remembered what she had overlooked. You can use servants to raise people. In fact, this rule is quite tricky. It is completely aimed at students from poor families. Students from official families can also be used as servants. Talk about fighting for a father, if you don't have a good ancestor and a good father, you can only fight on your own.
In the ancient times, it is the interpretation of the father-fighting that is thorough. In the ancient times, a good father would directly end life!
Take the Zhou family as an example. Unknowingly, they changed their fathers. In just two years, the fates of the Zhou family's sons have changed, and the future of the Zhou family's grandchildren has been planned!
Seeing that her mother was distracted, and seeing that her mother was about to prick her hand, Mrs. Zhao quickly reached out and pressed the needle, "Mother."
Zhulan regained her senses and looked down, almost pricking her own hand, "Look, I'm distracted."
Mrs. Zhao didn't think much about it, she just thought that it was normal for her mother to be distracted because of her age.
Fortunately, Zhulan didn't know what Zhao was thinking, otherwise she would have to vomit blood, she hasn't turned forty yet, this year she's only thirty-eight, thirty-eight, and she's still thirty-eight years old, she's only thirty-seven years old!
Xuehan asked, "Mom, are you worried about your life in the capital?"
Zhulan shook her head, "No, mother is thinking that our family can buy slaves, and I'm thinking about buying a family of slaves."
Xuehan was stunned, she really didn't expect that their family could already use slaves, and with slaves, she would become a real lady?
Mrs. Zhao almost pricked her own hand, and hurriedly lowered her head. She thought of her own mother, who had been a slave. She felt that fate was amazing. After a long time, their family used slaves.
Xuehan didn't understand, "Why did mother buy a servant from the whole family?"
Zhulan said: "Because it's easy to control, the slave bond of the whole family is in my hands, they dare not have any wrong thoughts, otherwise the whole family will be harmed, mother told you, in the future, when choosing slaves, the first thing is not to be single One person's slaves, secondly don't want slaves from big families, especially those who are resold."
Xuehan didn't understand, "Why?"
Zhu Lan said: "There are too many unknown factors for the identity of single slaves, so we should not take them out of prudence. The slaves resold by rich families are usually criminal slaves, either stealing, raping, cheating or scheming people. You must know that loyal servants are very Less reselling."
Of course, there are also loyal servants who are framed, but unfortunately the chances are too small. There are no fools in the masters of rich families, and they all like loyal servants.
Xuehan was surprised, "There are so many talks about buying a servant!"
Zhulan smiled, "The knowledge in it is great, mother told you, in the future, it is better to choose a girl or not to choose a girl who is strong in everything, no matter how loyal she is, and don't choose someone who can only do things, no matter how good her work is, it is not good."
