Chapter 111: Balance

Xuemei coughed, "Mother, I don't want to come back to live." ”

Zhulan was stunned for a moment and frowned, "That's not good, it's not that your mother doesn't love you, you and your son-in-law just separated and lived in your mother's house, which is not good for your reputation and family, if you don't worry about the child, the child can stay, you and your son-in-law can't." ”

Xuemei blushed, she really didn't mean to stay in her mother's house, "Mother, I don't mean to live at home, I heard my aunt in the clan say that one of the families in the clan has moved to the county, and the house is empty for rent, I discussed with Jiang Sheng to live in Zhoujia Village, not only is it convenient to copy books, but Jiang Sheng can also consult with his father from time to time." ”

Zhulan suddenly, she said, she said along the way how to live for Xuemei and her family, the two of them kept laughing, it turned out to be a good idea, but as soon as the family lived in her mother's village, it was not good for the reputation of the girl.

Xuemei guessed what her mother was thinking, "Mother, we have enough reasons, Jiang Sheng asked his father-in-law for advice, it was to test Xiucai, and we don't have any land, I'm really afraid that people will say, spring plowing and autumn harvest, we will all come back to help." ”

Zhulan didn't blindly agree, she went out to find Zhou Shuren, her understanding of ancient times was not as thorough as Zhou Shuren, when she went out, she saw Zhou Shuren's calm face, and looked at her son-in-law's bowed head, Zhou Shuren already knew what her daughter thought, "What do you think?" ”

Zhou Shuren wrinkled his brows, there was a child husband at home, it was originally the division he advocated, and the eldest son-in-law moved over to live in the family, as if he was overbearing, and thought about it, "It's okay to live in the past, but you have to wait until after spring ploughing." ”

At least when he is admitted to Xiucai this year, the reason for asking for the teaching essay will be more convincing, and Jiang Sheng's family will not talk about it if they live in the past.

Jiang Sheng's mind turned around and understood what his father-in-law meant, his father-in-law was more knowledgeable than him, Xiucai was no problem, knowing that his thoughts were not thoughtful, he hurriedly said: "The little son-in-law is anxious, and he is causing trouble for his father-in-law." ”

He was really impressed by his father-in-law's knowledge, otherwise he wouldn't have thought about it, and he knew it was not good.

So it's decided, you still have to buy all the things you need to live, Boss Zhou first went to buy a cart of chopped firewood, and after unloading the car, he took Zhulan and Xuemei to the county.

In the county, I bought rice tanks, water tanks, jars, bowls, chopsticks, etc., and then bought all the seasonings, and finally fine grains.

Zhulan also paid for eggs, meat, and radish and cabbage, and loaded a cart full of things before returning to Jiang's house.

Zhou Shuren took Jiang Sheng to buy second-hand tables, chairs, cupboards, buckets for carrying water in the village, and tried to buy everything so as not to be ridiculed.

Zhulan subsidized 200 wen to her daughter, Xuemei spent about 1 or 200 wen herself, Zhou Shuren subsidized another 200 wen, and the family spent 12 or 400 wen.

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren tried their best to buy everything for their daughters, they increasingly regarded several children as their own, and they wanted to do everything in everything, don't be bitter about the children.

This can make the eyes of the daughters-in-law of the Jiang family red with jealousy, whose daughters are married is not spilled water, but look at Zhou Xuemei, they feel that they are picking it up, and there is no way to separate the family in the red eyes, and the younger brother's family has the Yue family to rely on, and they dare not be sarcastic.

Do you want to say that you will split up? I really don't regret it, the Zhou family wouldn't have helped so much if they didn't split up, but they said that it was not good to put pressure on the Jiang family for Jiang Sheng to study, so it was better to be comfortable now.

Jiang Sheng stayed at home to burn the fire and watch the house, and Xuemei followed back to Zhou's house.

In the future, Jiang Sheng wanted to copy the book at home, Zhou Shuren was not worried about taking the original book back to copy, Jiang Sheng copied the first two, he and Rong Chuan copied the remaining two, and Jiang Sheng brought back a hand-copied version.

In the future, the children at home will also read the manuscript, and Zhou Shuren originally wanted to seal it and keep it.

After eating a good meal at night, the two children will go home with Xuemei tomorrow, and after Xuemei's idea doesn't work, the children will naturally take it back, so as not to have any opinions from the sister-in-law, and try not to cause trouble to the parents.

Early the next morning, Zhulan packed things for the eldest daughter, these days the family's clothes, an old quilt, Li's spicy cabbage and sausages, Zhulan also caught a hen that laid eggs, and finally stuffed the eldest girl with two taels of silver slots.

Xuemei ate and drank at her mother's house, and she couldn't even eat and blush when she went home, "Mother, I'm already very guilty, don't give me any more money." ”

Zhulan wants to estimate that all mothers have problems with subsidizing their children, she especially understands that the Yang family can make up for the original body, if it weren't for the fear that her son-in-law would develop inertia, she would still want to take more, "If you don't take it, you will dislike it less." ”

Xuemei's nose was sour, "Mother, you know I don't mean that." ”

Zhulan smiled in her eyes, "My mother knows, my mother will subsidize you this year, and when Jiang Sheng is admitted to Xiucai next year, my mother will not subsidize it?" ”

I thought it was a pity, unless Jiang Shengxiu became a gifted student, there was still no silver money and rice grain subsidy, and only the Yusheng Imperial Court would give silver and subsidies every year.

So I still need Zhou Shuren's help!

Xuemei has confidence in her father-in-law, knowing that her mother's kindness has accepted the money, "Thank you, mother." ”

Zhulan didn't personally send the eldest daughter's family back, let the eldest and the second child send it together, the grandchildren and granddaughters raised feelings, the two children cried, and Zhulan felt the taste in her heart, missing Jiang Du, who had a particularly sweet mouth, as if she was missing several children, and she didn't have any spirit to go back and lie down.

Zhou Shuren came in with the book, and saw Zhulan's eyes empty, so he leaned over and sat down, "I'm going to pack my luggage tomorrow, let's go to Pingzhou." ”

Zhulan was surprised, "Aren't you waiting for the New Year?" ”

Zhou Shuren said: "Don't wait, it's not easy to buy a shop out of the New Year." ”

Zhulan is a little anxious, the rent of the shop is a lot of money a year, a shop is enough for the whole family to use for the year, the silver money does not make money, and only money can be made when buying a shop, "I will arrange it, let's leave tomorrow?" ”

Zhou Shuren smiled, "I'm going to find the carriage and the convoy tomorrow, and I'll leave in a day or two." ”

Zhulan was not in a hurry, "Who else are you going to take with you when you go out this time?" ”

Zhou Shuren has already thought about it, "I am not the boss to support the family, and I also have to manage the Li family, the second child can fill the lack of the boss, Chang Lian and Chang Zhi do not take it to study, and Rong Chuan can't take it, Rong Chuan is not suitable for special, we only take Xue Han himself this time, and we also prevent our daughter from being remembered by Wang Ru." ”

Zhulan counted the time, bought a shop and did it well, it would take seven or eight days to go back and forth, and she would have to beat it well when she was not in Li's for a few days, and the monkey would be called the king if the tiger was not at home.

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren are actionists, early the next morning, Zhou Shuren went to the county to find the carriage and convoy to Pingzhou, and set off early the day after tomorrow.

Zhulan took out the food for eight days at home, and counted another hundred copper plates for emergency household use, and Zhulan gave the silver money to the Li family, and the grain to the Zhao family.

The Li family has a lot of silver money in his hand, and he will not die pinching a hundred Wen, and everyone has New Year's money, even if there is something, he will not be embarrassed by the silver money, Li takes the silver money and does not take the same, the Zhao family has a plan in his heart, and he uses the grain to balance the Li family, and the Li family loves to replenish his brain, he must think that she secretly explained that the Zhao family looked at her, Zhulan added a lock to the Li family, and the Li family did not dare to mess around when she was not at home.
