Zhou Qi was a little dazed, he didn't have much impression of this father, how could he know what he said?

When Zhao Cuihua saw him like this, she knew that this kid must have forgotten, and she was happy and angry in her heart, and muttered guiltily: "You kid, why don't you have a long memory!" ”

After finishing speaking, I read it slowly and leisurely.

"Your father, I look forward to you coming to Japan to gain fame, if you become an official in the future, you can't forget the people of Shanhe Village, can you reduce taxes for the village after becoming an official? ……”

Zhou Qi was embarrassed after hearing this.

This old man has just passed the Tongsheng County Exam, and it is far away if he is not an official......

Even a few of the women laughed.

"Mother, it's still early, if Lang Jun really becomes an official one day, he will definitely not forget the people!" Su Ling said, casting an adoring and affirmative gaze towards Zhou Qi.

She is glad to marry this family again! ……

You must know that although it is not difficult to say that this Tongsheng County Exam is not difficult, there are not a few people who fail the list every year.

Even the students of Wenzhu Academy may not be able to be admitted to this child!

But her family Langjun only read the book intermittently for a few days, and she won the second place!

Isn't that what is gifted excellence!?

But when I thought that my Langjun was so good, I was ......

Her eyes were a little dark, but she quickly regained her joy!

That scene happened to be captured by Zhou Qi, and he was suspicious in his heart, this daughter-in-law might start thinking about something again!

Don't look at her being born in a rich family, but she has low self-pity in her heart, and he has always been clear about this.

A few people staggered back to the village......

Due to the worship of ancestors, only men can enter, so the women of the Zhou family go back to the house first, and Zhou Qi follows the chief and his party to the ancestral shrine.

The ancestral ancestral hall of their Zhou family is not far from the dozens of acres of wasteland, and the construction is relatively shabby.

It's just that their surname Zhou moved over hundreds of years ago, and they are originally foreign surnames in the village, as for how to gain a foothold in this village, this matter has to be related to the other two deceased old patriarchs......

However, he did not study this kind of thing that had been buried in the ground.

At this time, the patriarch surnamed Zhou was already waiting in front of the ancestral hall, and when he saw the mighty group, he already knew the result without asking, which made him happy, and the crutches were almost not steady, and he spitted saliva with old phlegm in his mouth.

"Ancestor bless, my surname Zhou has finally produced another literati!"

The patriarch of Zhou Qichao bowed, and promised twice, and he didn't bother to think much about what he said.

Then the patriarch organized the men surnamed Zhou, and lined up in a long line according to their seniority and eldest and youngest, with the patriarch in the middle and the middle in the left......

Originally, Zhou Qi was a junior, and he didn't know where to go if he really wanted to talk about it, but now he is a scholar, and the status of a scholar is high in this era.

So he stood on the right side of the patriarch......

The patriarch coughed twice, and then muttered solemnly: "Respectfully, Zhou ...... I would like to pay tribute to the ancestors and ancestors in front of the spirits, protect my Zhou lineage to high school, and the descendants of the Zhou family strive to write poems and books, imitate the sages, and live up to the ......"

"Kneel! ……”

"Bye! ……“”

Accompanied by the patriarch's two unusually loud salutions, Zhou Qi kowtowed with everyone.

Then it is in the order of queuing, and the incense is offered in turn......

Finally, the sacrifice was over, and the patriarch called a few young men to gather together to discuss the reconstruction, including Zhou Qi and Uncle Zhou, the chief of the family.

After all, rebuilding the ancestral shrine is not as simple as brushing paint, expanding the area is certain, and the soil, wood and labor involved in it, as well as the auspicious days of feng shui, etc., are extremely complicated!

However, the patriarch's family is not rich, he said earlier that he will post this money alone, and now it is not good to ask others to share it, and finally decided that he will contribute the money, and the young people will contribute, and it will be almost enough to repair a roof.

Zhou Qi stood on the side, quietly listening to the discussion of several people, and when the discussion was almost over, he didn't say much, buried his head and went back to the house, and then took a few silver coins from the house and went straight to Uncle Zhou's house.

"You said you came to give this silver money to rebuild the ancestral shrine?"

Uncle Zhou's hand trembled with the three hundred taels of silver tickets, not only can you build a roof here, but if you want to repair it, you can build two ancestral shrines! ……

"With the blessing of my ancestors, I am on the list, this is what I deserve."

Zhou Qi laughed hehehe, in his impression, the patriarch's family has a large population, although there are two acres of more land, but life is not very good, saying that this matter of sticking silver money to repair the ancestral temple must be a swollen face and a fat man......

And the patriarch helped their family to some extent earlier.

Especially today, the emotions brought to him by the villagers when the list was released were so touched.

Since you want to repair the ancestral temple, it is better to be in place at one time and repair the big waves!

What's more, three hundred taels is not much for him now, and he still pays for this money! …

However, he didn't make a statement on the spot, and he also took into account the patriarch's face, and didn't want to bother the old man in the past, so he gave the money directly to Uncle Zhou.

Anyway, Uncle Zhou's personality is also very clear, and he is a credible person.

But this made Uncle Zhou so excited, his mouth grinned to the root of his ears, and he suddenly seemed to think of something and asked, "Zhou boy, I don't know if there is a shortage of guys in your shops?" ”

"Huh?"

"My family Zhou Liang, follow me every day to farm and hunt, and I don't have the ability to make a living, I just thought that you are good now, can you take him with you?" Uncle Zhou asked.

When these words were asked, Zhou Qi was silent.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Uncle Zhou was a little anxious, and continued: "Actually, not only my son, but also many guys in the village want to follow you to the city to work!" ”

"You also take them with you, seeing that the textile factory in the village has opened, and the wages of the mother-in-law in each family have just been paid, and the tails of one or two are up to the sky, and the number of days falls to men, and now some villagers have opinions! ……”

After Uncle Zhou's words, Zhou Qi remembered it.

Originally, according to his original plan, the factory was to make toothbrushes, and men and women did not delay, but now it seems that it has indeed gone against the original intention.

The imperial court paid heavy taxes, and the city and the village were like two worlds.

If you ask the merchant to hand over the same quota, he will still have a thousand taels of silver left, but when it falls into the hands of the peasant households, after handing over the quota of grain every year, there is only a little left for his own life.

It is not difficult to understand that the people in the village want to abandon agriculture and become a businessman when they see that he has become a businessman, but he is all in business, and who will plant the crops in the field?

But if you want to say this, he can't understand it, and if you say more or less, you will be misunderstood.

In the end, I had no choice but to respond: "Okay, I'll take a look in two days, and if there is anything, call Zhou Liang first." ”

After receiving the response, Uncle Zhou was even more happy, and called Zhou Qi a person who does not forget his roots!

Night is coming, as the saying goes, when the gold list is inscribed in the cave room......

Zhou Qi will definitely not miss the beautiful scenery of this good day, after loving his daughter-in-law for a while, thinking of the different color in Su Ling's eyes before, he asked: "Lady, what do you have on your mind?" ”

Su Ling nestled in his arms, like a docile kitten, and sat up when he heard this.

"Lang Jun, I don't think I'm worthy of you."

Zhou Qi was stunned, this fairy-like daughter-in-law said that she was not worthy of herself? ……

"I feel like I'm useless, what should I do? Boom ......"

Su Ling's tears fell as she spoke, and the tears hit her face looking extremely delicate, but as soon as she realized that she was crying, she immediately wiped it away.

Then he said very firmly: "Lang Jun, I have decided, I must give you a baby this year, otherwise...... Otherwise, what will Lang Jun do if he dislikes me in the future! ……”

"How could I dislike ......"

Before Zhou Qi finished speaking, his mouth was sealed with a burst of softness!

Su Ling, who is usually shy, was unusually active tonight, and here again again!

Tossed until the second half of the night!

After Zhou Qi felt exhausted, the room finally quieted down!
