Zhou Lao Er saw that his mother didn't read the account book, and knew that his mother was satisfied with his work, so he said with a smile: "The eldest sister also borrowed her father's light this year, not only did she buy three acres of dry land this year, but her brother-in-law also went to teach in the clan school, there are 400 Wen a month, Jiang Du also entered the clan science enlightenment, and Jiang Miao is now the most precious her hair, no one is allowed to move." The youngest twins are already gone, and the two children look the same, and they don't have a lot of eyes. ”

Zhou Lao Er likes to hear more interesting stories about twins when he sees his mother.

Zhulan knew that the eldest daughter's family was doing well, so she was relieved, and now that the eldest daughter has slowly saved her foundation, her life will not be bad in the future.

Zhulan looked at Chang Lian, "For more than half a year in my hometown, I see that you have calmed down a lot." ”

Chang Lian has thought a lot about it for most of the year, he has never thought about his own shortcomings carefully before, he has figured it out for half a year, he has been studying for more than half a year, and he has indeed washed away a lot of impetuousness, "Mother, your hard-working son understands." ”

Zhulan nodded secretly in her heart, she had been observing Chang Lian since just now, thinking about the current Chang Lian, Meng Juren was satisfied, "Your master has been talking to you a lot recently, go to Meng Mansion tomorrow with gifts to see your master!" ”

Chang Lian was reassured, "Yes." ”

Zhulan saw that the two sons had tiredness on their faces, they were afraid of being delayed by the wind and snow, so they rushed all the way over, "Go back and take a shower and change your clothes and rest first, your father will come back in the evening, let's talk again." ”

Zhou Lao Er and Chang Lian stood up, "Mother, let's go back first." ”

"Let's go back!"

Zhulan waited for her two sons to leave, she still had a lot of work, the gifts brought by Zhou Lao Er had to be unpacked and stored in the warehouse, Zhulan called Steward Ding and Liu Ya, she took the list and checked it in the same way.

Books and calligraphy and paintings are placed separately, waiting for Zhou Shuren to come back to see, other bottles, antiques, etc. After inspection, the suitable ones are taken out, and the unsuitable ones are put into the warehouse.

After an hour, they were all checked one by one, and Zhulan went to see the mountain goods brought by Zhou Lao Er again, Zhou Lao Er really did not lose the harvest, mountain fungus, mushrooms, monkey heads, bracken, daylily, etc.

Zhulan asked Liu Ya to take out some bracken and daylily and send them to the kitchen, so that she could add some vegetables to eat tonight, and she had enough radishes and potatoes these days.

Yes, there are also lamb and pork that I have eaten a little enough.

Having said that, the cabbage and radish in Lizhou City are a little more expensive than those in the interior and the north, and no matter how much cabbage is planted in the people's vegetable garden, they can be sold, and foreign merchants often come to harvest cabbage and radish.

After Zhulan had checked it, Wan Jiu, who was driving the car for Zhou Shuren, came back first, with two buckets of fish in the carriage.

Wan Jiu said: "These fish were sent by the people who contracted the pond, and the master couldn't accept them, so he left the money and bought them, the master mother, the master asked me to send them back and pick up the master again, the master mother, I went to pick up the master." ”

Zhulan, "Go ahead." ”

Waiting for Wan Jiu to leave, Zhulan circled around two buckets of fish, this is not a small bucket for water, this is a large wooden barrel specially for live fish, the two buckets of fish are not small, each has more than two catties, Zhulan knows that the fish fry in the pond are fished from the river, the big three or four catties are sold directly, and the two catties are raised together, and it is good to grow to more than two catties in a few months.

There can be fifteen of these two buckets of fish, more than 30 catties, Lizhou City don't look poor, but in winter, everything is expensive, these 30 catties of fish can be sold for 30 wen a catty, almost a tael of silver.

Looking at Wan Jiule's appearance, it seems that the people who contracted the pond have also made money.

Zhulan said with a smile: "Make fish to eat tonight, and divide three fish for you, everyone in the family is here today, and they are all lively." ”

Liu Ya was happy in her heart, she hadn't eaten fish for a long time, "Hey, I'll go to the kitchen." ”

"Go ahead."

The subordinates of the Zhulan family all eat together, the Zhulan family does not need someone to serve and eat, when the master eats, they also go to eat, more than 20 people, divided into three tables and three fish.

Zhulan returned to the courtyard, and Li woke up from his sleep, holding his purse, "Mother, this is my filial piety." ”

Zhulan was stunned, she already knew about a thousand taels of silver, and wondered if the Li family would float in her heart, but she didn't expect the first one to be given to her, Zhulan took the purse lightly, and opened the purse under the expectant gaze of the Li family, and in the purse was a silver ticket, a silver ticket of fifty taels, but Zhulan's heart rose, "Give it to me?" ”

Li was still a little reluctant in her heart, but when she thought of her mother-in-law's kindness to her, she felt that she should give, "I originally wanted to go to the street to buy jewelry for my mother, but my vision was not good, so I asked the head of the house to change the silver ticket back, mother, not much money is also the filial piety of me and the head of the house." ”

Zhulan is holding a purse, and Li's picking is also less money, and she has no confidence to pick it when she has less money, but think about it carefully, from her to ancient times, Li will honor her every time she gets money, regardless of whether it is because of flattery or sincerity, he respects her every time.

The other two daughters-in-law also flattered her, but they really didn't do Li's sake, but they talked a lot.

Zhulan pulled Li's hand, her chubby hand was much thinner, and the jade bracelet could be brought again, don't blame her for being partial to Li, people are really mutual, she felt Li's sincerity, this time Li is honoring her from the bottom of her heart.

"Don't stand, come and sit."

Li sighed, she felt her mother-in-law's joy, "Mother, buy whatever you like." ”

Whoever is good to Zhulan is good to her, she will be doubly good to whom, the two daughters always think about her, she always thinks about her daughter, the Li family is filial to her, she is not a stingy person, "I have a cloak given by Mrs. Chen here, although the color is darker, but the skin is the best, and it is suitable for you to wear it with a white face." ”

After Zhulan finished speaking, she motioned to Liu Ya to take out the cloak, this cloak is really good, she really likes it, but she doesn't like the color all the time.

Liu Ya took it, and Zhulan put it on for Li's family, although the color was darker, but Li's white was still more suitable, and Li's fat looked younger, and he wouldn't feel that the cloak had to be used by older people.

Li Shi was stunned, "Mother." ”

She's not here to ask for something.

Zhulan smiled, "Okay, you can take it back, it's time to eat later, and I'll change my clothes." ”

Li Shi was stunned and put on a new cloak and went back to his yard, Boss Zhou saw the cloak on his daughter-in-law at a glance, he recognized it, this cloak Li exclaimed at the time that the fur alone was worth dozens of taels!

Boss Zhou, "....... Aren't you honoring your mother? Why did you get a cloak and come back instead? ”

Li touched the hair on the collar of his neck, and was silent for a while before sitting down and said, "The master, this is given to me by my mother." ”

Boss Zhou glanced at the cloak, and was silent, and couldn't help laughing at himself, how shrewd his father and mother are, their brother's thoughts and fathers can see it clearly, Boss Zhou understands, he shouldn't think carefully, he is the boss, as long as he is filial to his father and mother, it is enough to do his duty, "Today, the lady taught her husband a lesson." ”

Lee, "....... Don't be, I think it's weird. ”

Boss Zhou laughed, "Okay, it's not crepe." ”

Zhou Shuren came back after dark, and it can't be said that it was dark, the days were short, and the time to come back was the same as usual.

And two
