Seeing that she was so easy to be ashamed and too easy to be seen as flawed, Sister Chunmei said: "Big girl, go back, I will do what I say." If you are here, you will also arouse suspicion. ”

"Auntie, it was my grandmother who called you over." Zhou Lianye hurriedly explained.

"Oh." Sister Chunmei understood a little, and her face was sad for a while, "The old lady asked me to go?" You'll have to teach me another lesson. But was it my fault that I was beaten by that drunkard for no reason?"

Zhou Lianye said: "No, my grandmother is just trying to persuade you."

"Alright, let's go." Sister Chunmei looked helpless.

The Zhou family, Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Xiucai were all sitting in the hall, and when they saw Sister Chunmei coming in, Zhou Xiucai put on her face, and only smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Zhou got up and said with a smile: "His sister-in-law, you haven't been here for many days, I'm very worried, why do you want us to invite you to come now?"

Zhou Lianye's mother poured a cup of tea over and handed it to Sister Chunmei, saying, "Sit down." ”

Mrs. Zhou asked with a smile, "Your man hasn't come back yet, right?"

The more polite this is, the more it looks like a Hongmen banquet, Sister Chunmei peeked at Zhou Xiucai's face, and looked as serious as Bao Gong, so she lowered her head and said: "He beat me, but he seemed to be angry, and he refused to come back, where did this start?"

"I've wronged you." Mrs. Zhou sighed, "But as the saying goes, the king is the minister, the husband is the wife, and it is not a shame to be beaten a few times by the husband, not to mention that women are not as strong as men, how can they not suffer?"

When Sister Chunmei heard this, she was a little unconvinced, but Mrs. Zhou raised a talented son, so she is naturally a person who understands reason, and besides, she is old, where do you dare to argue with her? "Yes."

Mrs. Zhou said: "He didn't go back at night, he went to the school to make a bunk, probably caught a cold, and was sick today."

Sister Chunmei pouted and said, "How dare I not let him come back?" He's always like this himself, what can I do?"

Suddenly, Zhou Xiucai said with a straight face: "Sister-in-law Shen, you are a virtuous person, everyone sees it, can you let your husband sleep outside?"

"Yes!" Mrs. Zhou took over, "The husband and wife have no overnight feud, you are wronged, can you still remember your husband's hatred?" He's your man after all, you just let him a little, what's the matter? People in the village have always said that whoever is afraid of their husbands is also the virtue of the people. Tell him to let you go in turn, that's not a good word, don't you say?"

Zhou Lianye's mother also smiled: "My mother-in-law is the most reasonable old man, and what she says makes sense, so you can follow it." Now go back and compensate Dazhu for two sentences, invite him home, and it's over. ”

was repeatedly preached by this family, Sister Chunmei was originally sitting, and stood up with her head down. To be honest, she wished her husband wasn't at home.

Zhou Xiucai saw that she still looked very aggrieved, so he said to his mother: "It's not interesting to talk too much, I'm going to read a book."

When he spoke to his mother, his face was very calm, but when he turned his face, his face sank suddenly, and he swung his sleeves back, and strode out.

After all, now that her family has to rely on the Zhou family to eat, Sister Chunmei knows that she can't offend Zhou Xiucai, not to mention that if she doesn't follow the Zhou family's words, I'm afraid that she will become an imvirtuous woman in the blink of an eye, and no one in the village will look down on you.

So Sister Chunmei hurriedly explained to Mrs. Zhou: "If I don't listen to your old man, I'm afraid that the more careful I am to give in, the more he will lose his temper, and the next time he comes back from drunkenness, he will beat me again."

Mrs. Zhou said: "If this is the case, I can't spare him." His sister-in-law, you are a person of three obedience and four virtues, even if you can't think about anything, do you still need to say more?"

If it is a modern person, the so-called three from four virtues sounds like scolding, and in this era, the Zhou family has a sentence of three from four virtues on the left, and three from four virtues on the right, which really makes Sister Chunmei feel comfortable, and she can't help but be virtuous, and now she is cheeky to compensate her husband.

The next day, Shen Kan and Yan Xianggong found the back street of Beisi Tower, walked around, and saw a hundred-year-old locust tree in front of an alley, so they asked a nearby seller of wonton noodles, "Does Master Qian's family live here?"

The vendor pointed inside and said, "Go in and turn right, and the gatehouse is carved with a stone lion."

Shen Kan thanked him, and the two walked in and saw Qian Shuban squatting in the small courtyard brushing leather boots.

Seeing the two of them, Qian Shuban dropped the brush, got up and said, "The two of you are here?" Please come in and sit down. ”

The Qian family looks very simple, the guest rooms are two old tiled rooms, the front table is enshrined with a portrait of Xiao He, and the walls are pasted with old documents.

There is also a painting on the east wall, which is "Dongfang Shuo stealing peaches", and on the west wall, a scroll is hung to celebrate his birthday by a certain political envoy.

Qian Shuban probably saw that Shen Kan didn't look like a subordinate, and even he asked to sit down, called to watch tea, and a little guy came in with a pot of boiling water. Qian Shuban took out a tea can, made three bowls of kung fu tea, handed it to the two guests, and served a bowl for himself.

After a while, Qian Shuban said: "Yesterday, you don't have to care."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Yan Xianggong bowed and said.

Qian Shuban glanced at the smiling Shen Kan and said, "I didn't understand what I said yesterday, so Mr. Fu will talk about it carefully."

Yan Xianggong said: "It's Wuxing Shen's family, the fourth master in the family, famous and famous, and he is promoted as virtuous and square in this school." It was because we came in advance, and the first paperwork arrived in the department, I don't know which teacher undertook it, so let's inquire first, and I will guide you one or two. ”

"I see." Qian Shuban thought for a while, "It should be in charge of Master Like Dou, but this political envoy is not a yamen below, how can you see him?" They work every three months, and they won't let them out if they go in. There is a big and small affair, which is a message when we convey the paperwork in the upper room. ”

Shen Kanxin said that he had gained a long experience, it turned out that the rules of the political envoy were so strict? Then he shook his head in his heart, I'm afraid it's a routine, even if the six departments of the capital will not be like this.

"What then?" Yan Xianggong also heard it for the first time, and he couldn't help but show a distressed look.

Qian Shuban said with a smile: "Squire Shen's matter is a happy event, but you can't be careless, and you have to entrust a proper person." Just like the candidate document in Canglang County the day before yesterday, there was a slight disagreement here, and the document was rejected. It's been more than a month now, and I haven't seen it. ”

Yan Xianggong was very surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's not like someone who hasn't taken care of it." Qian Shuban lowered his head and blew the tea bowl.

Seeing him like this, Shen Kan was sure that this was a routine, the water in the yamen had always been deep. (To be continued.) )
