Chapter 938
Zhulan feels that this year's days are very fast, as if she just passed the full moon for her little granddaughter, she doesn't feel how many days have passed, the child is already a hundred days old, it's already summer, and Zhou Shuren's birthday is over.
Although it is not yet dog days, the sun is full, and the morning sun makes people dizzy.
Zhulan is lying on the rocking chair enjoying the girl's fan, and she can reach the fruit on the low table with her hand, but it's a pity that she can't eat too cold ones, and she feels drowsy thinking about it.
"Grandma, grandma."
Zhulan's drowsiness was gone, she opened her eyes and looked at the two little girls who ran in, "You two are the most energetic in our family, tell me, what do you want to do with grandma?"
Yudie is the older sister, and she has the biggest idea. She ran over to please her, "Grandma, mother won't take us when she goes out. I still want to go to my future brother-in-law's house."
Yu Yi nodded straight, implying that she wanted to go too.
Zhulan pinched Yudie's nose, "It's useless for you to act like a baby."
The last time I went there, I almost didn't scare Mrs. Zhao to death. Her soul was about to fly away. The Hu family was empty. Even if Hu Xia sent servants and maids there, the yard of the Hu family was still very empty. There were not many people but many animals. Especially snakes waking up from hibernation.
The two little girls couldn't stay idle last time, they ran around, and finally saw a small snake, Yudie was not afraid, the girl who followed was frightened, and the mother-in-law ran away with the two girls in her arms. Zhao Shi in the distance, Zhao Shi almost fainted.
As a result, Mrs. Zhao not only did not take Yudie with her when she went out, but also dared not take Yuyi with her, for fear that something might happen and she would not be able to explain to Chuchu.
Yudie doesn't want to stay in the mansion, she wants to go out, "Grandma, grandma."
Zhulan didn't soften her heart, "I'm too used to the two of you, since you are so energetic, I will start to learn the rules from tomorrow."
Of course, these words were meant to scare the two granddaughters. The two children are still young, and it is good to be able to count. It is too early to learn words and learn the rules.
Yudie didn't dare to say anything, her brother wrote every day and taught her simple ones, but she still couldn't remember, her head was shaking like a rattle, she pulled Yuyi and ran out.
Seeing that the two little girls didn't fall, Zhulan said to Mrs. Song: "Yudie doesn't look like a girl, I think she is even more mischievous than Minghui."
Mrs. Song also felt that Miss Yudie was lively, "It means Miss is healthy."
Zhulan Road,
"There are quite a few girls in the family, and everyone has their own temper. This girl Yuwen can already speak, she's not at all like Su Xuan's sharp tongue. This girl doesn't speak unless she can, and only utters a word when she is in a hurry .”
Speaking of this, Zhulan laughed by herself. The little grandson Mingjia looks very much like Su Xuan. Ever since he opened his mouth to speak, the little mouth has never been idle. Every time he is taught by Yuwen, the little grandson will definitely get it if he talks too much. a slap.
Twins are very fun at this time, Ming Jia has been walking around to explore, but Yuwen can lie down and never sit, every time Ming Jia goes to the ground, Yuwen is watching on her stomach.
In the palace, Zhou Shuren had entered the palace so many times in the past six months that he couldn't count. He was quite comfortable sitting on a chair and eating fruit.
The emperor was leaning on the chair, the windows behind him were open, the air in the hall was well circulated and not too hot, "This year's days go by really fast."
Zhou Shuren had listened calmly enough to hear the emperor say that he was old, and his heart skipped a beat, "Indeed, the time flies, my little granddaughter will be a hundred days old in a blink of an eye."
The emperor smiled and said: "In a few months, you will marry your daughter."
Zhou Shuren thought that he was happy with you, knowing that your youngest son is going to get married, "Yes, I am very reluctant."
The emperor didn't have a daughter, so he couldn't feel it, and smiled, "It's not that they are far away, so there's no reason to be reluctant to stay in the capital."
Zhou Shuren was speechless, standing and talking without pain in his back, but he said: "The emperor said so."
The emperor's thoughts are a little far away. For the first time in so many years, he doesn't worry about money. The treasury has money in it. Even if he spends a lot of money, the treasury's silver deposit still makes him feel at ease. Except for a few bad sons, government affairs are still easy. , "I remember Aiqing's achievements in the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Zhou Shuren's heart moved, he was going to be promoted again, and then he stopped thinking, it was impossible, the promotion was too fast, "I should do what I should do."
The emperor smiled, "I really like your temperament."
Zhou Shuren thought for a while, "I also like my character."
He speaks much more easily now, but he feels that the emperor should reward him. He chatted with him in the past few months and helped the emperor relieve a lot of pressure!
Zhou Shuren thought of this, every time he entered the palace, the crown prince and Eunuch Liu were very enthusiastic, and thought to himself, even if the emperor is already very sensible, but he is getting old, the emperor is a little powerless, and his emotions will be exposed.
So the emperor not only seldom sees his ministers alone, but even the princes rarely see each other. It is said that they don't go to the harem.
The emperor asked again: "Your second son has been away for half a year, don't you miss it?"
Zhou Shuren replied, "I am worried, the sea is fickle, and sometimes I will have nightmares. Either the boat capsizes, or something happened to Changyi abroad. It was not until Changyi sent a letter back a few days ago that I felt more at ease. .”
He didn't lie, he really had a nightmare, he didn't recover from it for several days, but fortunately a letter came back, but this kid didn't come back with the Xu family's fleet, he stayed abroad, saying he would be back at the end of the year.
The emperor thought about foreign countries. There were no people in many places. He also thought that with the prosperity of sea trade, there are more and more courageous people. There are more people, and there are areas in Pinggang, all of which are foreigners."
Zhou Shuren twitched the corners of his mouth. He felt that this was not good. He could stay after buying a house, which was not acceptable. Moreover, he felt that too much money was lost to the treasury. He was just a money manager!
Although the emperor looked very casual, his eyes never left Zhou Shuren, and he scolded the old fox in his heart. He had already discovered that if he didn't take the initiative to dig, the old fox would like to sit still, "Ai Qing said straight, there are only you and me here Monarch and minister."
Zhou Shuren said fart, the matter is a bit involved, he had thought about it a long time ago, but he cursed in his heart when he looked at the emperor's eyes, he was too relaxed, the emperor must have deliberately lowered his guard for a few months. Yes, look at the emperor never relaxing, "I do have some ideas."
The emperor hummed, and his sitting posture changed, "Say it."
Zhou Shuren organized his words in his mind and said: "With the development of maritime trade, foreign countries will know the richness of the mainland. In the past two years, more people have come from far away to seek gold and settle down. This is evidence. Although the imperial court controls the number of settlers, there are also many people who come here secretly. Even if someone is sent to watch, there will still be mistakes, so I think it is possible to issue residence permits for these foreigners, graded residence permits, different grades pay different money every year, and control the purchase of houses and shops according to the grades of residence permits Wait, as for the land minister, it is not allowed to buy, but can be rented, but only once a year."
Zhou Shuren paused and continued: "There must be laws against foreigners, or when applying for a residence permit, it is clearly required to abide by the laws of our country. Foreign businessmen must also apply for a foreign business permit, and they need a guarantee. This can avoid some problems. Foreigners scam money and run away."
When he was in Jinzhou, there have been several times when foreigners pretended to be merchants and cheated the goods and ran away. There are so many scammers.
