The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

   Chapter 1527 Perseverance

   Zhou Shuren went home from the yamen, but didn't bring back the letter, he said after dinner, "I received Zhao Bo's letter today."

  Zhulan hummed, "What?"

   The two of them wrote less and less, mainly because Shuren was unwilling to reply.

   "His youngest son is ill, and his wife brought the child to the capital to see the doctor, saying that she will come to visit the Hou's mansion."

  Zhulan still remembers when Zhao Bo joked that he wanted to get married, "I should not only bring my youngest son to the capital."

   "Well, it's almost time for people to arrive in the capital."

   Zhulan smiled, "It's a coincidence that Changzhong is not at home."

   The smile on Zhou Shuren's face also deepened, "It is indeed a coincidence."

  Zhulan said again: "By the way, the Wang family sent a message to Mrs. Li today."

   "I heard that the Liu family has a lot of moves, and the Wang family wants to win over people."

   "Hey, I heard Xuehan say that the emperor hasn't been going anywhere except the queen's bedroom recently. The emperor did it so obviously, and he even allowed news to be passed on. Don't the Wang family understand what it means?"

   Zhou Shuren took a fan and fanned his daughter-in-law, "Understood, but it's still the same sentence, the emperor is in his prime, who can predict the future?"

  Zhulan sighed, "The Wang family relied on having worked with you, so I have to give you face, otherwise, I really don't want the Li family to go."

   "Just go and sit down, just go with the flow and not be singled out as a problem."

   "Well, I know it."

   The next day, Boss Zhou didn’t leave the city. He came to the main courtyard early in the morning after having breakfast. Old Zhou said: “Mother, my son wants to choose a few more children from the family to come to Beijing.”

  Zhulan, "Didn't you bring back six, isn't there enough manpower?"

   Zhou Laodao: "The second brother took three of the six people that my son brought back, and he took them straight away. My side is not enough."

   "That's it, it's good to know what you have in mind, but don't bring too many children from the clan to the capital, it will make the children of the clan uneasy to study hard."

   Zhou Laodao: "My son wrote it down."

   "Well, by the way, the ducks you raised in spring are not small now."

   Boss Zhou smiled, "It's really not too small, I'll be able to eat it in a few days."

  Zhulan wanted to eat roast duck, but after saving money, she had a heavy stomach instead, "Okay, let's eat roast duck when we can eat it."

  Boss Zhou nodded. He raised a lot of chickens, ducks and geese in Zhuangzi, all of which were raised for his family. Every time the family ate the chickens and ducks he let him raise, he was very satisfied.

   Boss Zhou asked, "Mother, do you want to celebrate your birthday?"

  Zhulan waved her hand, "Your father didn't do it, and I can't do it either, just have a meal as a family."

   Boss Zhou regrets that he has nothing to do. Now he pays attention to thrift, and there are many fewer banquets in the capital. Who let some adults in the capital be particularly able to perform.

  In the fourth room, Yujiao pulled the fifth sister who wanted to go to sleep and went back to sleep, "fifth sister, it's not so hot on a cloudy day today, how about we go to the street."

  Yuwen didn't want to go out, "You go to the third sister."

   "Third sister and my sister went out."

  My sister disliked her for being too noisy, and she was afraid that she would not be able to come back after taking her out for a while. It was useless for her to ask. My sister just didn't agree to take her out!

   Yuwen became a little more energetic, "Why didn't you follow?"

   Yujiao spread her hands, "My sister won't let me."

  Otherwise, she would not have come to see the fifth sister. The elder sister asked her to practice the piano at home. She already memorized the tune very well. She didn't want to practice the piano. She wanted to go shopping.

  Yuwen took Yujiao's hand away, "Don't, Fourth Sister won't let me, I don't dare to take you out."

  Su Xuan heard this when she came in, "I just want to go to the shop, you guys come with me?"

   Yujiao was overjoyed, "Fourth aunt is the best."

  Su Xuan smiled, "You little girl has the sweetest mouth."

   Yuwen, "Mother, I didn't agree to go together."

   "The objection is invalid, go and change your clothes."

  Su Xuan was angry when she saw her daughter's clothes. In order to go to sleep, she wore very simple clothes, and her daughter's mind was spent on how to be lazy.

   It's been less than half an hour since they left the house. Su Xuan and her party went to the shop first. After meeting the steward, Su Xuan took the two girls to go shopping.

  Yuwen followed lazily all the way. Even if it was cloudy, the weather was a little sultry. She hated shopping. She preferred to put a few bowls of ice and sleep under a thin blanket.

Yuwen felt that Yujiao was suitable for her mother's child. Yujiao and her mother were the two women in the family who liked shopping the most. Seeing how the two of them went shopping, Yuwen really didn't want to move, "Mother, there is a tea shop in front of you. , I'll be waiting for you in front."

  Su Xuan was accompanied by Yujiao, letting go of her unmotivated daughter, "Go."

  Yuwen arrived at the shop, chose a place by the window, ordered herbal tea and fanned by a girl, she was comfortable and instantly refreshed.

  Kung fu for a cup of tea, it rained heavily in the sky, some pedestrians on the street had umbrellas, most of them could only find a place to hide from the rain.

   Yuwen was worried about her mother, and thought that she would not be able to get wet in the shop, so she sat down and waited with peace of mind.

   "Miss Zhou."

   Yuwen turned back, "Mr. Ning."

  Very good, the two went quiet after greeting each other.

Ning Ming came in to hide from the rain. Instead of sitting at a table with Miss Zhou, he chose the next table and ordered a pot of tea. Ning Ming frowned. Seeing that the dim sum he bought was not wet, a smile appeared on his face. meaning.

  Yuwen listened to the sound of the rain, "Hey, it's very hypnotic."

  The girl stood behind the young lady to block her eyes, "When the rain is less, the carriage will pick you up and you can go home."

   Yuwen, "Hmm."

   The heavy rain came and went quickly. The rain was light, and the Zhou family's carriage came over. Su Xuan had already taken Yujiao to the carriage.

  Yuwen got up and nodded at Ning Gongzi, then took the girl out, got on the carriage and left.

  Ning Ming had a headache when he thought of his mother's plan to not give up.

  It rained several times in succession in the capital. The emperor just finished talking about the good rain this year, and there was no flood in the south. This year is a smooth year. As a result, urgent reports were sent to the capital the next day, and there was a locust plague in Jiaozhou.

   The smile on the emperor's face disappeared, locust plague, let alone the emperor, Zhou Shuren also sighed, hoping that the scale of the locust plague was not large.

  Go home in the evening~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Zhou Shuren, "Jiaozhou is a grain continent, and the grain output of several major upper prefectures ranks first, the grain of the whole state, ah."

   "It would be nice if there were more chickens and ducks."

   Zhou Shuren, "Because of the lack of grain, most of the birds were killed, and there are not many raised this year. In addition, there is no way to raise large-scale farming now, even if there are chickens and ducks at home, it is useless."

  Bamboo Orchid, "I remember that locusts can eat?"

"Ok."

  Zhulan, "Catch it, then dry it and mix it with cornmeal. Even if it's not eaten by humans, you can catch it and feed it to chickens and ducks."

   Zhou Shuren smiled, "I have already mentioned it to the emperor."

   "Just mention it."

  The couple were worried that the locust plague would implicate other states, and they were a little helpless.

  Fortunately, the situation in Jiaozhou is not too serious. Although the grain output has decreased, it has been preserved. Of course, it may be an exaggeration of the good news.

   On this day, Zhulan saw Yu's, and she was surprised. Yu was seriously ill, so why did she come to the door in person.
