Chapter 93 Ethnology

Zhou Shuren said indifferently: "You heard me right, after the beginning of spring, Mingyun will join the ethnology study. By the way, not only Mingyun, but also your two younger brothers and Rong Chuan will go to the study."

Boss Zhou was shocked. Dad was stimulated by something when he went out. The family has never interacted with the clan. "Father, clan studies are not good."

The ethnology of the Zhou family in ten miles and eight villages is the most famous. The Zhou family has been passed down for a long time. Even if some books are lost, there are still some books. This is the most precious place.

Moreover, the Zhou family has a lot of rules, and the quality of teaching is good. If they are not Zhou, other surnames in the village have to pay a high amount of money, not to mention, they have to be of good character, so as not to spoil the children of the Zhou family who are studying.

At the beginning, my father had a pissed temper, and my younger brothers didn't go to ethnology school, they were all sent to more famous private schools.

Zhou Shuren didn't care what the boss was thinking, and continued: "Tomorrow you will be busy with your work, and the day after tomorrow, I will take you and Mingyun to the patriarch and a few elders' homes, you know what you know."

Boss Zhou couldn't figure out what father was thinking. He was not very smart and didn't want to think too much, so it was right to do what father said, "Got it."

All that needs to be said has been said, Zhou Shuren signaled that the eldest couple can leave.

Boss Zhou watched his father pour tea for mother, and the corners of his mouth twitched, no wonder his father warned them not to come to the main room for nothing serious, just look at how father is serving mother, he can't even look at him!

The next morning, after breakfast, the elder couple not only went to the county by themselves, but also brought their two sons with them. Zhulan was worried that the children would suffer, but the two grandsons looked excited, and Zhulan didn't stop her.

Zhulan took a look at her little grandson, and she had to admire how the second child can take care of others. Mrs. Zhao and the child were well taken care of.

Zhulan returned to the main room, saw Zhou Shuren drinking tea leisurely, poured herself a cup and said, "Now that I have money in hand, when shall we buy a shop?"

Zhou Shuren had already planned, "I will go to Pingzhou to buy a shop and a house in the next year. The house is for the preparation of the scientific examination. The rent of the shop in Pingzhou is high, and it will be convenient to change hands in the future."

Zhulan was excited, "I will go after the next year!"

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Okay, let's go together."

Zhulan was thinking about the money in her hand, "Are the shops and houses in Pingzhou expensive? We need to keep some money in our hands. Is one thousand taels enough for us?"

Zhou Shuren, "Don't worry, I've inquired about everything. The good shops have already been divided up. You can buy third-class shops at a low price. Pingzhou's house prices are no better than Jiangnan's. That’s enough, and a house in a good location won’t be too expensive.”

Zhulan has a lot of them. Zhou Shuren wants to buy a house with two entrances. There are too many people in the family, and the first entry is really not enough. Thinking that people will soon have real estate in ancient times, Zhulan said happily: "When you become an official in the future , we are not in vain, so we don't need to be cautious anymore, I will definitely buy more property."

Speaking of this, Zhulan was worried again, many of the sons in the family were in debt!

Zhou Shuren smiled, he likes bamboo orchids and thinks about his family, "Yes."

At noon, Zhulan made lunch. Zhulan followed Mrs. Li in the kitchen for a few months. Her culinary talent is still not brightened, but she has improved. At least she can make soup. If it is salty, add more water to control it. Although the soup she made doesn't taste very good, the steamed buns and a pot of soup are enough for the staple food in the morning.

It was getting dark in the afternoon, and the eldest couple came back with their children, and bought a lot of things in big and small bags. After moving the things back to the house, the eldest couple came to the main room with boxes.

Mrs. Li opened the box flatteringly, "Mother, this is the silver hairpin that I and the head of the family chose for you. It costs two taels of silver. Do you like it, mother?"

The couple also want to honor their father, but unfortunately, father doesn't smoke, and he has pens and inks at home. After thinking about it, it would be better to spend all the money of filial piety on his mother. Father-in-law might be happier. Seeing father-in-law's gentle expression, Li knows that filial piety is right.

Zhulan cast a glance at Mrs. Li, two taels of silver was enough to bite, not to mention that the silver hairpin carved with wintersweet is really rare, Zhulan took it in her hand and thanked, "You two have taken care, mother likes it. "

Li's heart was full of joy, and the pain was much less, "It's as long as mother likes it, oops, I'm stupid and my brothers and sisters can't make clothes, so I can only spend more money to honor my mother."

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

Li's cleverness is used to step on Zhao's daily.
