Chapter 376 Filial Piety

Seeing that his mother stopped looking at the account book, Zhou Laoer knew that his mother was satisfied with his work, and said with a smile: "My eldest sister also borrowed from my father this year. Not only did I buy another three acres of dry land this year, but my brother-in-law also went to the ethnology school. Teaching, there are four hundred essays a month, Jiang Du also entered the ethnology enlightenment, and Jiang Miao is now the most precious her hair, no one will let it move. The youngest twins can already leave, and the two children grow up Same, people don’t have a big heart and a lot of eyes.”

Zhou's second son Jian Niang likes to hear more interesting stories about the twins.

Zhulan knew that the eldest daughter's family was doing well, so she felt relieved. Now that the eldest daughter is slowly building up her foundation, her future life will not be bad.

Zhulan looked at Changlian, "Having been in my hometown for more than half a year, I think you have calmed down a lot."

Changlian has thought a lot in the past six months. He has never thought about his own shortcomings carefully before. In the past six months, he has figured it out. He has studied at ease for half a year, and he has indeed washed away a lot of impetuosity, "Mother, your hard-working son understands. "

Zhulan nodded inwardly, since she had been observing Changlian just now, thinking about coming to Changlian now, Meng Juren is satisfied, "Your master has been talking about you a lot lately, bring a gift and go to Meng's mansion to see your master tomorrow!"

Changlian felt relieved, "Yes."

Zhulan saw the tiredness on the faces of the two sons. They were afraid of being delayed by the wind and snow, so they rushed all the way here, "Go back and take a shower, change clothes and rest first. Your father is back in the evening, let's talk."

Zhou Lao Er and Chang Lian stood up, "Mother, let's go back first."

"Go back!"

Zhulan waited for her two sons to leave. She still had a lot of work to do. The gifts brought by Zhou Er Er had to be unpacked and stored in the warehouse. .

Books, calligraphy and paintings are kept separately, waiting for Zhou Shuren to come back to read. After checking other bottles, antiques, etc., those that are suitable for display are taken out, and those that are not suitable are put into the warehouse.

It took an hour to check everything, and Zhulan went to see the mountain goods brought by Zhou Laoer again. Zhou Laoer really did not miss the harvest. Mountain fungus, mushrooms, Hericium erinaceus, bracken, day lily, etc. were all in place.

Zhu Lan asked Liu Ya to take some bracken and day lily to the kitchen, so they could add some vegetables to eat tonight, as they had enough radishes and potatoes these days.

Yes, and some mutton and pork are also enough.

Having said that, the cabbages and radishes in Lizhou City are a bit more expensive than those in the interior and the north. No matter how much cabbage is grown in the common people's vegetable gardens, they can be sold. Foreign merchants often come to collect cabbages and radishes.

After Zhulan checked, Wan Jiu, who was driving Zhou Shuren's car, came back first, and there were two barrels of fish in the car.

Wan Jiudao: "These fish were given by the people who contracted the pond. The master couldn't accept them. In the end, I saved some money and bought them all. Mistress, the master asked me to send them back to pick up the master. Mistress, I'm going to pick up the master. "

Zhulan, "Go."

When Wanjiu left, Zhulan circled around the two barrels of fish. This was not a small bucket for fetching water, but a large wooden barrel specially used to hold live fish. The two barrels of fish were not small, each weighing more than two catties. Zhulan Knowing that the fish fry in the pond are all fished from the river, the big ones of three or four catties are sold directly, and the ones weighing less than two catties are raised together. It is not bad that they can grow to more than two catties in a few months.

There can be fifteen fish in these two buckets, more than 30 catties. Although Lizhou City is poor, everything is expensive in winter.

Looking at Wan Jiu's happy expression, it seems that the people who contracted the pond have also made money.

Zhulan smiled and said: "Tonight I will cook fish and I will share three fish with you. This family is full of people, and it is all lively and lively."

Liu Ya was overjoyed, she hadn't eaten fish for a long time, "Hey, I'll go to the kitchen."

"Go."

The servants of Zhulan's family all ate together. Zhulan's family didn't need anyone to wait for meals. When the master ate, they all went to eat too. It was just right for the twenty or so servants to divide into three tables and three fish.

Zhulan went back to the yard, and Mrs. Li woke up, holding the purse, "Mother, this is for my honor to mother."

Zhulan was stunned for a moment, she already knew about the one thousand taels of silver, and wondered if Mrs. Li would be lost, but she never expected that the first one would be given to her. Under Pan's eyes, she opened the purse, and there was a silver note in the purse, which was fifty taels of silver note, but Zhulan's heart went up, "For me?"

Mrs. Li was still a little reluctant, but when she thought of her mother-in-law's kindness to her, she felt that she should give it to her, "I wanted to go to the street to buy jewelry for my mother, but I have a bad eye, so I asked the head of the family to change it for silver." The ticket is back, mother, the money is not much, it is the filial piety of me and the master."

Zhulan is holding the purse, and Li's picking is also a matter of less money, and she has no confidence to pick it. But think about it carefully, from her to ancient times, every time Li got money, she would respect her, regardless of whether it was because of flattery or out of it. Sincerely, respect her every time.

The other two daughters-in-law also flattered her, but they really didn't do it for Li's sake, instead they talked more.

Zhulan took Li Shi's hand, her chubby hand became much thinner, and the jade bracelet can be worn again, don't blame her for being partial to Li Shi, people are really mutual, she felt Li Shi's sincerity, this time Mrs. Li respected her from the bottom of her heart.

"Stop standing and come sit."

Mrs. Li sighed, and she felt her mother-in-law's joy, "Mom, you can buy whatever you like."

Whoever treats Zhulan well to her, she will treat him even better. The two daughters always miss her, and she also always misses her daughter. Mrs. Li is filial to her, and she is not mean-spirited. Although the color of the cloak was a bit darker, Pizi finally signaled Liu Ya to take out the cloak. This cloak is really good, and she really likes it, but she doesn't like the color to keep it on.

Willow buds were brought over, and bamboo orchids were draped on Li Shi. Although the color was darker, Li Shibai was still more suitable. In addition, Li Shibai looked younger, so I didn't think the cloak had to be old. for human use.

Mrs. Li was stunned, "Mother."

She didn't come to ask for something.

Zhulan smiled, "Okay, you can take it back, it's time to eat later, and I'll change my clothes too."

Dazed, Mrs. Li put on the new cloak and went back to her yard. Boss Zhou saw the cloak on his daughter-in-law at a glance.

Boss Zhou, "Aren't you filial to your mother? Why did you come back with a cloak instead?"

Mrs. Li stroked the hair on her neck, sat down after a moment of silence and said, "Master, this is given to me by my mother."

Boss Zhou glanced at the cloak and fell silent. He couldn't help laughing at himself. His father and mother are very smart people. They can clearly see their brother's thoughts. The boss only needs to be filial to his parents and do his duty, "Today my wife taught me a lesson for my husband."

Li Shi, "Don't be polite, I think it's weird."

Boss Zhou laughed, "Okay, not polite."

Zhou Shuren didn't come back until it was dark, and it couldn't be said that it was dark. The days were shorter, and the time when he came back was the same as usual.
