Chapter Ninety-Five: Calculation and Mutual Benefit
Zhou Shuren waited for Zhulan to enter the inner room before taking out the paper in his arms, and he didn't hide it, "A while ago, I followed the dart line to Jiangnan for a trip, this is the Jiangnan two session of the paper question that I took great pains to get in Jiangnan, this is a copy I hand-copied and handed over to the clan, I hope it will be helpful for the clan to participate in the show of the township examination in the coming year." ”
Patriarch Zhou was finally not calm, he never heard the news that Zhou Shuren went to Jiangnan, and when he came back, he didn't say that he got something good, he was shocked, and he was happy that his intuition was right, and he was busy taking the paper and looking at it, the patriarch was also a child, he knew the importance of the paper too much, and he was excited to look at it a few times.
The surname Zhou has been unable to have no one and no strength for several generations of in-laws, and the survival of the troubled times has lost a lot of capable clansmen, not to mention that the surname Zhou has got the questions of the township examination, and even the cost of participating in the scientific examination has to be collected by the clan, and he rarely touched the question of the volume, "Okay, good, Shuren, Uncle didn't mistake you, the book knows that you have the ability, and the uncle represents the descendants of the clan Thank you." ”
After saying that, it was a pity in his heart, Zhou Shuren was the best student in his generation back then, but it was a pity that he was born at the wrong time, and the child was young after the establishment of the dynasty, there was no way, Zhou Shuren's mind was on cultivating his son, otherwise the new dynasty would have been established, and the surname Zhou would have already come out with a person to protect the family.
Zhou Shuren is willing to talk to smart people without saying it thoroughly, it is not difficult at all, Zhou Shuren smiled, "This is what I should do, the patriarch's gratitude is to torture me, there is a matter of trouble to the patriarch, in the spring of next year, I want Chang Lian and Chang Zhi to return to the clan study, and Mingyun and Rong Chuan to study in the clan." ”
Patriarch Zhou touched his beard and was happy in his heart, Zhou Shuren's reintegration into the clan is a great good thing for the clan, he is even more expectant of Zhou Shuren, his eyes fall on the title of the volume, these not only take effort but also must have spent a lot of money, Zhou Shuren's family foundation must be thick.
Thinking that the elders of my father and grandfather's generation had beaten Zhou Shuren's idea, it was a little unnatural, but Zhou Shuren even read Rongchuan, he really had silver, and secretly said No wonder the idea of fighting this branch within the clan was all made with money.
The patriarch of Zhou thought that the scientific examination needed a lot of money, and Zhou Shuren's family was not short of money, but it was easier to provide for the lifter, if the ancestors blessed the Jinshi, Zhou Shuren's family would change the court.
Zhou Shuren's family reintegrated back, the clan raised money, Zhou Shuren will not be stingy, what attention should be paid to reintegrating into the clan, he has a clear heart, and it is mutually beneficial, "It's no problem to join the clan to learn, Chang Lian and Chang Zhi heard that it has been good, just come to study directly after the year, and the two new students will follow the new batch of children to enroll." ”
Zhou Shuren stood up and thanked, "Thank you, patriarch." ”
Patriarch Zhou smiled, "Call the patriarch and call the uncle." ”
In the house, Zhulan also knew from the chat that counting up several generations, their branch was really related to the patriarch's family, and the Zhou family was integrated back then, and several generations were married to the daughters of the Zhou family's in-laws, and Zhou Shuren's grandmother was the in-laws of the patriarch's branch.
Although there are several generations apart, there are some relatives in the end.
Zhulan was stunned when she heard it, she didn't have these in her memory, and her mother-in-law didn't talk about it, but after a few generations, it didn't make sense to talk about it, people had died a long time ago, and their feelings had long been gone.
If it weren't for Zhou Shuren's reintegration into the clan, the patriarch's family would not mention it.
At noon, the patriarch of Zhou prepared hard dishes, chicken stew, eight dishes, and the patriarch of Zhou also called a few elders who were highly respected in the clan to come over.
Zhulan is a person who has the ability and skill, and has won the favor of all the women in the patriarch's family several times.
Zhulan smiled, there was no foreign aid in the past, and no one supported her if she didn't help in the clan, but now it's different, Zhou Wang's family first scolded the black-hearted woman in the village, and then guaranteed that whoever taught her in Heizhulan would teach whom.
Zhulan is happy, Zhou Wang's family has a high status in the village, and the patriarch's wife surnamed Zhou is Lizheng's mother, as long as she opens her mouth and wants to think about Hei Zhulan in the future, she will weigh it.
Zhou Shuren and Zhulan returned with a full load, and Boss Zhou changed a little after exercising, and he had a deeper understanding of what the eldest son was and what face he had.
In the next few days, Zhou Shuren and Zhulan took their eldest and eldest grandson to visit the homes of several elders in the clan, and the benefits they sent were all fabrics, which were enough to make a set of clothes for adults, and they all accepted Zhou Shuren's kindness.
Zhulan's wife is also very good at diplomacy, not to mention that she likes Zhulan, at least she has changed her opinion of Zhulan.
The efforts of the two of them were not in vain, and they gradually came and went back and forth with the clan, and the attitude of the village towards Zhulan immediately changed, and the Zheng family didn't dare to be weird when they saw Zhulan, and Zhulan was polite when she met people several times.
After a week of busy work, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren stopped moving, and they were quite tired for a week.
Finally able to nest at home, Zhulan doesn't want to get out of the bed, these days are the coldest time in winter, she is cold enough.
Zhou Shuren is in the main room, no one from the grandchildren dares to come, Zhulan nested in the quilt after eating, the warm quilt is comfortable, and he turned sideways and said to Zhou Shuren who was holding the book: "Everyone who should visit has visited, there are still ten days to celebrate the New Year, you see that it will be a good day in two days, and the affairs of Xuehan and Rongchuan will also be done!" ”
Zhou Shuren put down the book, "Cheng, tomorrow let the second child take Rong Chuan to give a New Year's gift to his father-in-law's family, and by the way, let his father-in-law and mother-in-law see Rong Chuan, and let the eldest of the clan invite him." ”
Zhulan saw Zhou Shuren pick up the book again, "Have you forgotten that there is another important person who has not been notified?" ”
