Chapter 332
Now Zhulan looks at Li Shi and gets angry.
Mrs. Li couldn't understand what mother meant, so she asked the head of the house, "What's wrong with mother?"
Boss Zhou wanted to touch the position of his heart. The two of them were still thinking of small people. Today, when they went to buy venison, the price of venison has increased again. One catty and one tael of silver. The venison in the capital is very popular, so they bought it. Come back a catty, now it seems that I think it's my mother's meaning!
Boss Zhou pulled Mrs. Li, "Stop talking, hurry up and slip!"
Mrs. Li still didn't understand, until the head of the family told her in a low voice, Mrs. Li, "I'll explain."
Boss Zhou was smart this time, "Don't, the more you explain, the more you can't explain clearly, and you think it's my mother who put the reputation of digging on you!"
Li's heart was thumping, "Then what should I do, woo woo, mother has finally missed me, she won't drive us away!"
Boss Zhou was depressed. He found out that his mother-in-law was much more important than him in his heart, and he didn't want to talk to his wife anymore.
In the early morning of the next day, the Zhou family received a lot of invitations, all of which were drunken people who didn't care about drinking. They said congratulations at the door, and it was plain that they hoped to fix Wu Ming.
Zhao Bo's greeting card also came.
Zhu Lan thought that Zhao Bo would also be waiting at home to see each other, Zhao Bo did well in the exam, and ranked fifth, Zhao Bo is also a candidate for a good son-in-law!
There were so many people in the Zhou family one day, and then no one came to the door. It wasn't that they gave up on Wu Ming, but they were all preparing for the palace examination.
The Xu family next door to the Zhulan family is also moving. The identity of the Zhou family has changed. The Qi family that the Li family gave to the Li family is more generous. The screen that swings up.
Mrs. Li came back carrying things, "Mother, the screen is better than my younger siblings!"
Zhulan looked at the wood of the screen, now that she has money, she said to Xuehan, "When you get married, Mother will also prepare some screens for you."
Li's screen is at least fifty taels. The merchant's family really has money.
Although she didn't go out to see the neighbor's move, she could tell from Mrs. Li's mouth that there was a lot of money next door.
Zhulan said to Li Shi: "Put everything away."
Mrs. Li is rare,
"Mother, I only gave some homemade bacon when Qi Shi left. Is it too stingy?"
Zhulan said faintly: "She won't feel stingy, but she is happy that you can give her bacon."
Mrs. Li doesn't understand, her bacon is worth a few silver, "Mother, Mrs. Qi is not stupid!"
Zhulan smiled: "At home, you are the only one who has not noticed any changes in your heart. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants are the lowest. Your father is no longer a juren. The Qi family is afraid that you will look down on her. You still treat each other with sincerity, even if the gift is light. She's happy too."
What's more, the Xu family is just a small businessman, and the big forces look down on it. It is very difficult for the Xu family to survive. As the daughter-in-law of the Qi family, they can hand over to the Li family. Although Li is only the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, it will be a friendship in the future, right? I cherish my relationship with Mrs. Li very much.
Zhulan didn't object to Li's and Qi's association, she also wanted to leave a line, since the Xu family simply ended the business in the capital and went to Pinggang, she knew that Master Xu was shrewd and decisive!
Zhulan likes shrewd and decisive people. In the future, when she opens a sea business, the rich and powerful will stare at this piece of fat. She also wants to see if the Xu family can make a fortune and see how capable the Xu family is. .
Xuehan said: "Mother, when will you let the second brother and the third brother come to Beijing!"
As for the fourth brother, well, she doesn't care about it at all, the fourth brother has Xu Jinshi to worry about!
Li's heart arose, she didn't want her younger siblings to come, in the capital, no one would argue with her, she lived a comfortable life, if the younger siblings came, they would definitely rob her of her mother, she didn't care about her younger siblings There are many children.
Zhulan, "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot. Your third brother said that Mr. Jiang will return to Beijing in spring!"
Zhulan considered whether to dispose of the house in Pingzhou City. Originally, Zhou Shuren’s house was raised when he became a juren. After the palace examination was over, the states and cities would report that the house should be raised again. .
It's just that I don't know whether Zhou Shuren will stay in Beijing or be sent abroad after the palace examination. However, the house in the capital really needs to be searched in advance.
Li's heart raised, "Mother."
She dislikes Mrs. Dong the most. Mrs. Dong has the most cunning eyes. Of course, there are also reasons for her status. She always feels that she lacks confidence in front of Mr. Dong. Mrs. Li is worried. Dong's daughter-in-law who can do it well.
Zhulan came back to her senses, and said to Xuehan: "After the palace examination is released, we will see where your father is in the future before deciding whether they will enter the capital."
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Mother, I'm going back to the house."
"Yep."
Zhulan waited for Mrs. Li to leave, and asked Jing Zhe to find Er Yuelai. The little girl Jing Zhe is Xuehan's girl, and the little girl is smarter than her parents. Although she can't be the big girl in charge, it's good to keep her.
Zhulan waited for Eryue to come in and said: "I'll give you a post later, and you take the post to find Deng Xiucai and ask him if he has a house for sale near the west city. The yards that enter the second and third are all available."
Er Yue understood that the main family was going to buy a house, "Yes."
Xuehan waited for February to leave, "Mom, are you going to sell the house you live in now?"
"Well, now everyone thinks that our house has good feng shui, and the money we earned from buying it happens to be exchanged to the vicinity of the West City."
Xuehan is very reluctant, she likes the house she lives in now, especially her boudoir is really exquisite, but she also understands that Nancheng is not a place to live forever.
Two hours later, Er Yue didn't come back alone, Deng Xiucai and Yazi came together.
When Zhou Shuren and Zhulan met, Yazi was cheerful, "Master Zhou plans to buy a house, will the one he lives in be sold?"
Zhou Shuren, "Did someone ask you?"
Yazi smiled and extended a slap, "The price is five thousand taels."
When Zhulan heard that it was similar to what she thought, according to the current house price, it nearly doubled.
Zhou Shuren didn't say sell it but asked, "Is there any good house for sale?"
Yazi has a solid idea in his mind, this is interesting to sell, and he is even more considerate. If he can help buy this house, there will be a hundred taels of benefits, "Yes, there are expatriates from Beijing selling For the house, the house is not big and the yard with the second entrance is small, and there is another one at the northwest junction. The house is not small but it is in disrepair. It needs to be repaired after buying it. The house I entered was too expensive to rebuild, so no one bought it.”
Zhou Shuren asked, "Is it gone?"
Yazi said embarrassingly: "There are really no good places. You have lived in the capital for so long and you know how popular the houses in Xicheng are. Many officials are staring at them. The second courtyard in Xicheng I mentioned just now, if you don't dislike the small place. It's already sold out."
Zhulan asked, "What are the prices?"
Yazi, "The smaller houses in the west city are small, but they are worth three thousand taels if they are in a good location. The ones in the northwest are big, but the houses are not good enough. They can be sold for two thousand four hundred taels."
Zhulan moved her mind. House prices in the capital are the most stable. In the future, the policies for businesses will be gradually relaxed, and the lives of the people will be easier. The housing prices in the capital will only rise. "Take us to see it!"
The family has a carriage and Xiao Si, so it was very convenient to see the house this time. The Xicheng house I went to first, the house was indeed very small, not as big as the second-entry house in Pingzhou, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren walked out the gate without saying a word after seeing it.
Just after leaving the gate, a carriage passed by, Zhulan silently wanted not to stop, but her wish was dashed.
