The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Zhulan got a letter from Wu Chun. The letter was written to Zhulan. Communication in ancient times was inconvenient. This letter was written after Wu Chun arrived in Lizhou.

As for the letter written by Yang Zhumu, it is estimated that Wu Chun's reply should still be on the way when he arrives in Lizhou.

The letter that Zhulan and eldest brother opened together, this time with the letter, there is also fur, the gift list in the letter is ignored, and the text is directly read.

When Wu Chun arrived in Lizhou, he was still under Zheng Hong. Zheng Hong was in charge of the garrison of Lizhou and had jurisdiction over the soldiers stationed there. Wu Chun was the real military general who assisted.

Wu Chun bought a large yard with three entrances in Lizhou City and only spent two hundred taels. The yard covers a large area. Although Lizhou is a state city, the conditions are very poor. The most merchants in the city are some fur traders. .

Although the war was over, people who fled in Lizhou City came back one after another, but the whole city was still very depressed, the people were particularly poor, and many people sold their children.

Yang Zhumu was stunned, "Why did this kid write about the lives of so many people in Lizhou City? The good guy has three or four pages."

Zhulan handed Zhou Shuren a few pages of letters written on Lizhou City, "Wu Chun wrote a Shuren."

Zhou Shuren took it preciously. He asked Wu Chun to write it. He asked Wu Chun to write back everything he saw and tell him that this kid wrote it in great detail. It seems that he went to the nearby villages a lot. It is painful, especially when I write that there is no food to cook, and some people even eat soil.

Zhou Shuren's heart sank. Although the environment in the northeast is also difficult in winter, the land in the northeast is fertile. The weather has been good in recent years. As long as they don't sell more food to save money, every household can eat 80% full. In the past few years, the land in the northeast Many people have enough money to dress themselves up.

This is also the reason why businessmen have been running northeast more diligently than ever in recent years.

Even the merchants in Lizhou City were reluctant to go, which shows how poor the local people are.

Zhulan also read the letter that followed, and wrote that it was all about Wu Chun's settlement, and finally invited Zhulan and Zhou Shuren to have the opportunity to visit Lizhou City.

Yang Zhumu's heart was stuffed for a while, but the whole article didn't mention him!

Zhulan noticed her elder brother's mood and laughed, "He didn't know you were here with me."

"I wrote him a letter."

Zhulan was speechless, "Brother, calculate for yourself how long it will take for you to reply to Lizhou City after receiving the letter from Wu Chun? When Wu Chun wrote to me, your letter hadn't reached him yet! He How do you know that you are also in the capital, and the reply to you in a few days should arrive."

Yang Zhumu calculated, "It's true, this child's reply to me should be on the way to Beijing."

Zhulan received the letter, "I'll go see the gift my eldest nephew brought me."

This is the New Year's Eve. Although this New Year's Eve came a little late, it's already February, and I'll be trying it out in a few days.

Zhou Shuren took the letter, "I'll go back and read first."

Zhulan, "Okay."

Bamboo orchid and eldest brother went to see the gifts, three boxes of things, two boxes of furs, and one box of jujubes. These jujubes are good things.

Zhulan divided some and kept it for her mother to eat when she arrived in the capital.

Zhulan had just packed up her fur when Li came back with Xinghua and a basket of vegetables, rubbed her hands and said, "Mother, it's really cold!"

Zhulan is worried, there are also three exams, the ninth day, the twelfth day, and the fifteenth day of the first day.

The test room for each person is still very small, five feet long, four feet wide, and eight feet high. When they enter, they will be searched first, and then each person will be given three candles. When the candidates enter the room and lock the door, the conditions are still very difficult!

Zhulan asked, "What kind of meat did you buy today, I'll see how happy you are."

Li Shi grinned, "Mother, today's mutton is fresh, I bought a few more kilograms of mutton, and stewed it at night."

Zhu Lan gave a gracious voice, "Come back tomorrow, buy more meat, and make more sausages for your father to bring."

"Hey!"

The time soon came to the eighth day, and Zhulan checked the things Zhou Shuren brought. This time, not only Zhulan checked it several times, but even Zhou Shuren checked it twice.

Zhulan looked at Zhou Shuren's nervousness, but she felt much more relaxed, "It's really hard to see you being so nervous about anything."

Zhou Shuren smiled, "I've already taken ninety-nine steps ahead, and it's the last step, can I not be nervous?"

Zhulan held Zhou Shuren's hand, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you've come this far, just let it go."

These days, Zhou Shuren has been dreaming at night, she can hear Zhou Shuren talking in her sleep, and she is endorsing in her dreams!

Zhou Shuren, "Yes."

As soon as Zhulan heard it, she responded well, but she definitely didn't think so in her heart. Zhou Shuren always said that she was willing to take responsibility for her, why wasn't he like that?

It's just that Zhou Shuren's heart is small, and she is the only one who can hold her.

The capital in February is really lively, especially on the eighth day of the first lunar month. The streets are full of carriages.

The Zhulan family came late, the carriage was blocked behind, and it was cold weather to walk past.

The situation on the street was similar. Not only was Zhulan's family walking, but Zhulan was willing to spend money, especially on Zhou Shuren, who was wrapped in a thick cloak and would not feel cold.

There is also a queue to enter the examination room, which is the same as the process of the rural examination.

Zhulan waited for Zhou Shuren to go in, and stood on the street for a while without any intention of leaving.

Despite being fat, Mrs. Li is not the most frost-resistant. Mrs. Li rubbed her hands together, "Mother, let's go home!"

Zhulan took a last look at the examination room, Zhou Shuren fought for her, and curled her lips, "Go home."

Back home, Zhulan went back to the house and drew the scene of Zhou Shuren entering the examination room.

Li Shi stood aside: "Mother, you draw really well."

Zhulan tilted her head, "Why did you follow?"

Li Shi's small eyes were aggrieved, "Mother, I've been following you."

Zhulan knew that Mrs. Li was here to accompany her, and looking at Mrs. Li's bun-like face, she couldn't help pinching it, "It feels really good."

Li's eyes widened, but she couldn't be overjoyed. Her mother pinched her, and her mother, like the head of the family, hated her the most. Li's face blushed when she thought of what the head of the family said.

Zhulan stared blankly at Li's running out, she just pinched Li's face~www.wuxiaspot.com~ How could Li be so shy?

Xuehan came in with her niece, "Mother, why did my sister-in-law run out?"

Zhulan, "Who knows what she thought."

Seeing that her mother was calm and not worried at all, Xue Han was stunned, "Mother, aren't you worried about father?"

Every time I took an exam, my mother was very worried.

Zhulan waited for the ink to dry, then put the painting away and said, "I believe in your father."

Xuehan was silent, she really envied the relationship between her father and mother, and she also hoped that she would be like Rong Chuan in the future. Thinking of this, Xuehan blushed into a red cloth, "Mother, I'm going back to the house."

Zhulan blinked, what's wrong with this one, one or two are shy? Has she lost her mind? Is she really getting old?

Zhulan shuddered and thought about it, it was terrifying, no, her real age is not yet thirty, and the ancients are not yet forty, she is not old, not old!
