Chapter 88 Zhou Mingrui

Zhulan is the calmest person in the family. When she walked to the box, a box of fabrics, half made of muslin and half made of silk, was neatly folded. The compacted fabric was enough for the whole family to wear two or three clothes. "How did you buy so much?"

"The styles in the south are outdated quickly, and they caught up with the inventory of cloth villages cleared years ago. Many fabrics are cheap, so our family bought more."

Zhou Shuren said again regretfully: "Our family is a farmer. Even if I get a child, it won't be of much use. There are a lot of materials that I can't wear. Otherwise, how can I buy you some expensive materials to make clothes."

Zhulan complained about the ancient times, there were regulations on the fabrics for clothes, and she looked at the box containing brushes, books, and some tea leaves. She knew a little about brushes and ink, and her grandfather loved calligraphy and taught her a little bit. The box is worth a lot. Silver coins, "Is this also bought?"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shuren can't save money, how much money will this box cost?

Zhou Shuren understood Zhulan's hidden meaning and explained, "The pen, ink, paper and inkstone are the rewards for helping to identify them. The books are borrowed and copied by me, and there are also second-hand books bought. Many scholars in Jiangnan really brought back some rare books at home. "

Zhulan flipped through the books and there were indeed flashes and many annotations. These books were all painstakingly made by Zhou Shuren, "Thanks for your hard work."

Zhou Shuren felt at ease. If he got the bamboo orchid, he felt that the hard work was worth it. "The remaining two boxes are special products."

A box contains pastries, fans, handkerchiefs, and two sheepskins in good condition. The most important thing is beef jerky. "Where did you get it?"

Zhou Shuren said: "Both the beef jerky and sheepskin are bought from Tubo merchants. Our family keeps half of the beef jerky and the other half for father and mother to send. The sheepskin is made into a leather jacket for father and mother to wear."

Zhulan knew that Zhou Shuren specially honored the elders of the Yang family, and her eyes fell on the last box. No wonder it tasted great. There were a lot of dried sea fish. The most surprised thing was a piece of ham, her eyes widened. Is there ham now?

Zhou Shuren has been paying attention to the bamboo orchid, and immediately resolved the confusion, "There was ham at the end of the previous dynasty, and it was only popular among the rich and powerful. The one I got was given to me for help."

Zhulan was very pleasantly surprised, and finally there were some dried shrimps.

All the things seem to be a lot, but they are actually taken up by the box, and there are really not many things in the box.

Mrs. Li was in a hurry, she was still waiting to divide the things, her eyes had already been fixed on the fabric and fan, "Mother."

Zhou Shuren interrupted Li's words, and opened the small box beside him, "I bought this for the girls at home. Jiangnan's jewelry is exquisite, you share it with the girls."

Zhulan saw that there were four couples inside, Zhou Shuren thought Mrs. Zhao was pregnant with a daughter, "By the way, you have added a grandson, and I'm still waiting for you to name it!"

Zhou Shuren pondered, "Born in winter, the amount of snow this year is abundant, which means that the auspicious snow heralds a good year. Zhou Mingrui, I hope the child will have a smooth life."

Zhou Laoer grinned, his son's name had a good meaning, "Thank you dad."

Zhulan also divided up the jewellery, one for her daughter and two granddaughters, and one for another girl, each with a pair of silver bracelets, a pair of silver earrings, and a silver lock.

Zhulan saw that Zhou Shuren was exhausted and had a hard time rushing back, and said to Lao Dao, "Boss, go and bring some firewood back."

Then he asked Zhou Shuren, "Have you eaten in the morning? Let's rest after breakfast together?"

Zhou Shuren waved his hand when he had no appetite, "I won't eat, you guys eat, I'll go back and lie down first."

Zhulan motioned for the second child to fetch hot water for Zhou Shuren to wash, and then said to Li Shi: "Make breakfast first, and then go home after breakfast, don't forget to come back at noon to cook, everyone else should do whatever they want."

Mrs. Li looked at the two boxes of fabric pastries without moving her feet, her eyes seemed to have taken root, and Zhulan gritted her teeth, "I'll tell you when I divide it up. It's useless if I don't care about it. Go cook now."

Only then did Li shift her eyes, and smiled flatteringly, "Mother, you can't be partial."

Zhulan was in a good mood because of Zhou Shuren's safe return, "Okay, I know it."

Mrs. Li confirmed that her mother didn't coax her, but she just waited until the door and remembered that she forgot to ask her father-in-law how much money her father had earned, but her father-in-law came into the house, so she didn't dare to chase after her to ask, she could only scratch her heart and worry about it.
