The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

The emperor hummed, "It's still money. If there is enough money to continue planning, the life of the people in the city will be much better."

Zhou Shuren didn't say a word, don't ask him about the money, he just got a sum of money, and he was staring at it. If he hadn't written down the things that might happen this year, he would not have kept the money.

The emperor didn't hear the answer, so he couldn't help but be amused, "Shuren, I just mentioned it later, I am old, the prince is very good now, let the prince worry about it in the future."

Zhou Shuren smiled dryly, "The Ministry of Household really has no money."

The emperor said faintly: "It's still poor, after ten years of war and chaos, no, plus the impoverished court at the end of the previous dynasty, the people are miserable, and after so many years of raising it, it is difficult to recover at once."

Zhou Shuren was silent. The ten years of war had killed and injured too many adult men, and too many strong laborers had been killed and injured. Too many villages had become widow villages. Without strong labor, how much tax could the imperial court collect in a year even if there were fields?

Zhou Shuren thought about it and said, "There will be a day of prosperity."

He hoped that he could see it, and now there are signs of prosperity.

The emperor's tone was relaxed, "Yes, there will be a prosperous day. Speaking of which, Shuren is my lucky general."

If there is no Zhou Shuren, he knows that there will be no signs of prosperity.

Zhou Shuren, "The minister is frightened, but the minister just fulfilled his duty."

The emperor smiled. He had already reached the gate of the city while he was talking. Zhou Shuren wanted to go back to the household department, and the emperor wanted to check around, so the two separated.

In the Zhou family, Xuemei was worried, "Mother, this rainy day is never over."

"Your mother-in-law sighed at home again?"

Xuemei nodded, "A lot of new land has been purchased. Mother-in-law and father-in-law are worried that they will have to pay taxes every year. If the harvest is not good, they will work in vain."

Zhulan thought for a while, "I'm going to let Zhuangzi raise some ducks, so let your parents-in-law raise them too."

Xuemei said, "My in-laws want to raise a few more pigs."

Zhulan, "It's okay, but you have to build a shed. The rain is heavy to prevent the piglets from getting sick. A piglet is worth a lot of money."

There was a slight smile on Xuemei's face, "Mother, don't worry, my in-laws will take care of these piglets."

Zhulan snorted, and handed the clothes she made to her daughter, "This is a dress for Miao Miao, you can take it back to her."

Xuemei thought of her husband's reply, "Mother, Jiang Ming's son, do you still remember?"

Zhulan naturally remembered that she had come to live there before, "Why did you mention him suddenly?"

Xuemei explained: "Xianggong went home, he was teaching ethnic studies, and he liked that child. This time I went back to chat a lot. I heard that someone came to the door to say kiss, and Xianggong asked me a few words about Miao Miao's age. Not too young, mother, what do you think of Jiang Ming's son?"

She has no ambition, and naturally doesn't want her daughter to marry her family. She thinks that in the Jiang family's situation, it is better for her daughter to marry a similar family.

Zhu Lan was surprised, "Ah? I thought you were going to talk about Mu Lan for Jiang Du!"

Xuemei smiled, "It's good to have a kiss."

Zhulan suddenly wanted to understand her daughter's plan. When the daughter of the Jiang family married, the Jiang family would only be better for Miao Miao. In addition to the situation of the Jiang family, the son of the Jiang family could not rely on Chang Lian. But Changlian is Xuemei's younger brother, and the Jiang family has a simple population, and Xuemei has helped the Jiang family for many years, which is a kindness.

Jiang Sheng also taught Jiang Muchen for many years, and it is indeed in line with Xuemei's mind in many aspects.

Zhulan thought of Ran Zheng's trial a few days earlier, the Ran family was indeed not a good marriage, and after thinking about it, she said, "You two parents, it's good that you have a few."

Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid that her mother would not agree, so she made a tactful proposal, "Mother, I have watched the two children of the Jiang family grow up. The two children have good temperaments, which is what the daughter values ​​more, especially Mu Lan, you said that the eldest daughter-in-law is very important, and Mu Lan has experienced so much at a young age, so she is suitable for the eldest daughter-in-law."

If it wasn't for her husband who mentioned going to Jiang's house to talk about a lot of relatives, she wouldn't be in such a hurry. According to her wishes, she would just let the flow take its course and wait a little longer.

Zhulan patted her daughter's hand, "Your vision, mother believes."

The big girl has big ideas, as if her own daughters have big ideas.

Xuemei was in a hurry to write back to her husband, "Then she will reply when she goes back and ask her husband to chat with Jiang Ming. It's not suitable to get married now. Your husband will take the township exam and wait for next year."

Zhulan thought for a while, "Don't just send letters back, if you have the intention, give the two children some needed gifts and send them back together with the letters."

Xuemei was already thinking about what to send back. The boy's pen, ink, paper and inkstone would do, and Mu Lan would send some delicate jewelry.

In Ninghou Mansion, the emperor and Ning Xu were sitting opposite each other. Ning Xu's heart was very complicated. He saw his son's reaction in his heart. It was obvious that his son had guessed his real life experience.

What does the emperor mean now? He finally became a father. Seeing that he was going to be a grandfather, he was going to become an orphan again?

The emperor drank the **** tea to get rid of the cold~www.wuxiaspot.com~ looked at Ning Xu, "Rong Chuan has already guessed it."

Ning Xu's voice was deep, "I know."

The emperor knew how good Ning Xu was and how good Rong Chuan was, and he also knew that Ning Xu really said that Rong Chuan should be treated as a son. It is not that the royal family has no precedent for adoptives, but adoptives are all members of the royal family, and they have never been adopted to foreign surnames. How to speak, he didn't come to worry about Ning Xu.

Ning Xu knew that there would be such a day sooner or later, but she felt uncomfortable. If you put in your feelings, you can't take it back. "Your Majesty, Rong Chuan is very good in Ninghou Mansion."

The emperor's eyes were sharp, then calm again, as if the sharpness just now was an illusion, "You are his third uncle, Rong Chuan is naturally very good."

Ning Xu moved his lips, his father's calculation was very good, but unfortunately, he miscalculated the emperor. The emperor was very kind to Rong Chuan. Rong Chuan was a smart kid who guessed his life experience early.

The emperor's whereabouts when he left the palace is not a secret. We all know that the emperor went to Ninghou's mansion. He didn't avoid it at all, and he never left.

When King Liang got the news, he didn't find any news for half a month, so he was full of fire, plus King Qi and King Chu were also investigating, he was even more irritable, "Rong Chuan, do you think the father is waiting for you? Go home?"

At the last meeting, he had a pimple in his heart. Rong Chuan didn't enter the palace for half a month, so he let it go. Now the pimple is getting bigger and bigger. His intuition tells him that the reason why the father did not leave is for Rong Chuan.

Rong Chuan was confused, "I don't know."

King Liang stared at Rong Chuan carefully. He felt that he should find someone to paint a portrait of the eldest son of Ning, otherwise, he would not be able to suppress the strange feeling in his heart.
