Chapter 540 Sympathize with the Li Family's Doll

Zhu Lan waited for Boss Zhou to go out, and looked carefully at the account books. The Li family was indeed trustworthy. Every amount of money was clearly recorded. The two thick account books were full of records, because County Magistrate Dong belonged to the Zhou family. In-laws, Zhou Shuren is the prefect of Jinzhou, and neither of the two Zhuangzi has ever caused trouble.

This year, God in my hometown in Northeast China did not embarrass the farmers. The grain harvest of the two villages of Zhulan’s family can’t be considered a bumper harvest, but the harvest is not bad. Excluding the tax distribution to the Li family, there is also the grain and expenses brought in, and the grain sold is 800 taels of silver. .

Because a lot of food was left and shipped over, otherwise the income would be more.

A sum of money was credited, although it was not the most, but it also made Zhulan feel at ease, at least the money for the New Year's gift came out.

In the evening, Zhou Shuren came back early in the morning, his in-laws came, and the whole Zhou family wanted to have dinner together to catch the wind.

Zhou Shuren deliberately came back and changed into easy-going regular clothes to meet Li Cong. At first, his in-laws were very nervous and cautious. Zhou Shuren was an old fox, and soon picked up the rhythm. Just kidding.

Sitting next to her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li kept her eyes on her father. When she heard her father smile, she also grinned. Ever since her father entered the yard, she was nervous when she saw her. She felt uncomfortable and worried about her father at the same time. Don't worry now. up.

Zhulan picked up some food with chopsticks for Mrs. Li, "I haven't touched my chopsticks for a long time, this is your favorite braised pork, eat more."

Mrs. Li looked at the braised pork in the bowl, and was very moved. It was her mother-in-law who missed her the most, "Thank you, mother."

Mrs. Li stopped thinking about her father, and her tone became more relaxed when she was at ease, "Mother, my mother said that if it wasn't for the fact that the family couldn't do without people, she would come along with her."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Li was still a little sad. The life of her mother's family has improved, the family business has grown, and the family can't do without the elders. Mother will be at home.

Zhulan knew in her heart that it would not be easy to see Mrs. Li in the future. When the Li family got up, the Li Xu family had to check it out even more. No matter who made the men in the Li family be foolish, "When Minghui grows older next year, you and the Xu family will be more concerned. Boss, go back and have a look."

Li's depressed mood is gone. Speaking of which, she hasn't been home for several years. Although she will introduce her every time she writes a letter, she still wants to see it for herself. Treat, with a smirking grin.

Bamboo orchid, ""

I didn't see it, Mrs. Li wanted to go back and show off!

Mrs. Zhao was envious of having her mother's family back home,

Thinking of her mother, Mrs. Zhao panicked. Compared with the letters from her sister-in-law and her third siblings once a month, she received two letters when she came to Jinzhou. For the sake of my younger brother, I begged the Zhou family's Tibetan family.

Mrs. Dong rubbed her belly, she was not envious, after the child was born, the husband said that he would go back early to prepare for the rural examination, and would stay with her at her mother's house for a while.

Su Xuan's eyes were full of envy. She envied having parents. She didn't even return to her natal family.

The Zhulan women's table ended first, and the men's table was still drinking. The Li family's alcohol capacity was good, and Zhou Shuren drank a lot when he was rarely happy.

At night, Zhulan coaxed her son to sleep, and Zhou Shuren came back drunk. Zhulan took the washed handkerchief and handed it to Zhou Shuren, "You are very happy today?"

Zhou Shuren took the handkerchief and wiped his face, with a smile on his lips, "Well, I'm happy today, I haven't chatted so easily for a long time, I feel relieved."

Zhulan was sad, Zhou Shuren had to go through his mind and heart once he said outside, and at home he had to act like the head of the family, so he chatted with simple-minded people like the Li family, so Zhou Shuren didn't have to hide it.

Zhou Shuren took off his clothes and got under the covers, "My father-in-law will be back in the future. You should prepare more gifts for the new year. My father-in-law's grandson will be sent to read and write. Prepare some pens and ink."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Shuren paused, "Yes, prepare some paper."

Zhulan couldn't help but burst out laughing, the Li family didn't have any talent for writing, and they really needed paper.

Zhou Shuren himself was also happy. Hearing that Li Gui had learned characters, he asked Chang Lian to take a pen and ink to give some pointers. As a result, he was silent for a long time after reading it. .”

He couldn't help laughing at that time, the boss thought of the words of the eldest daughter-in-law.

The next day, the Zhou family would have dinner together only when there were people from the family. After the whole family had breakfast, Zhulan asked the eldest couple to take the in-laws around the city, so don't even think about going outside the city.

As long as Zhou Shuren's investigation is not over, the Zhou family will still be in danger, and this time they can go out with a servant who is good at martial arts.

Li Cong sat in the carriage with his son in a daze, opened his mouth wide and said to his son-in-law, "Shouldn't we just go around the street? Do we need so many people?"

Boss Zhou didn't want to scare his father-in-law, so he smiled and said, "Father, we are always like this, just get used to it."

As he spoke, he squeezed the lady's wrist.

Mrs. Li stared, what are you doing pinching her, she is not stupid, pinching like this, as if she didn't have a brain, angrily and secretly pinched the head's back.

Boss Zhou hissed, he has also gained weight, his skin has turned paler, and he is developing in the direction of steamed buns, it really hurts when the lady pinches him like this.

Fortunately, Li Cong didn't pay attention, and kept muttering, "My dear girl, you are really blessed. No wonder your grandma said you were the most blessed when she was alive."

Mrs. Li smiled, and she also felt that she was the most blessed daughter of the Li family!

Zhulan has already asked Butler Ding to buy new year's goods, and it happened that Li's family went back to bring back all the new year's gifts.

The New Year’s gift list is kept, and you can buy according to the list, but this year Zhulan has added seafood. It’s winter now, and frozen prawns, sea fish, and sea vegetables can all be stored. Zhulan’s favorite food is sea bass , Swordfish also like to eat.

These are rare items, Su Xuan has her own fishing boat, and Zhulan ordered it directly from Su Xuan.

At noon, the eldest couple took the Li family to eat in a restaurant outside, and they came back at night.

Except for the fourth son who married the county head, the Zhou family’s daughters-in-law are not of high background. When the in-laws of the Li family’s peasant family arrived, everyone in Jinzhou knew about it. It's really good, the rich and the rich don't forget the poor relatives, and they treat each other with courtesy.

The Li family hasn't left yet, the grandsons and granddaughters of the Zhou family's grandchildren are doing better, and they are just waiting for the Zhou family to open a mansion to socialize.

The father-in-law was in a hurry to go home, Zhulan had prepared the New Year's gift, and Zhou Shuren also specially asked for leave to give it away.

The eldest couple Zhou also prepared a lot of things, the second couple also prepared some useful things, and the Changlian couple didn't give anything outstanding.

It was the turn of Changzhi and his wife. Changzhi took out a bag and handed it to Li Gui, "This is the copybook I copied. You will definitely improve as long as you copy it a hundred times. I'll give you all these. If it's not enough to write a letter, I'll write it again." Pass it on to you, I don’t have much else, I have copied the most posts, take it carefully.”

Su Xuan's expression froze, this burden was clearly hidden, and she felt an urge to cover her face, how did Chang Zhi find it? And where did the gift she prepared go?

Li Gui stared straight at the burden, took it over and pressed his hands, at least ten copies, and a hundred times, would kill someone!

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren, ""

The two looked at each other. Fortunately, the Li family was real, and they would have wanted to beat Changzhi if they had changed.

Mrs. Li closed her mouth several times, it's not that she doesn't want to help her nephew, she really can't afford to provoke her!

Boss Zhou looked at the silly father-in-law, and sympathized with the children of the Li family who didn't like reading!

Brothers Zhou Laoer and Chang Lian took a step back, and even dragged their own wife back.

Only Changzhi was very satisfied, and looked at his wife proudly. He knew everything about the courtyard for the collection of books, and it was too easy to find a bag. He was afraid that his wife would stop him from delivering it, so he deliberately came late!
