The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Chapter 838 Generation gap

Zhou Shuren said: "Sir, Xiaguan didn't find anything. Xiaguan just heard that the Lord was pressing the Ministry of Industry to apply for money, so I wanted to ask."

Xiao Qing exhaled, the capital has been very nervous recently, and he is also tensing up a string, it is not a big deal, "Recently, the Ministry of Industry has applied for silver too frequently, saying that it is to improve technology, heh, there is a prince in front to say hello, I have already It has been approved twice, but nothing has been smashed. The money of the Ministry of Households is used on the blade of the knife, and the Ministry of Works can't waste money like this."

Zhou Shuren felt a little depressed and wanted to vomit blood. To improve any technology, he had to keep experimenting. Every experiment was worth money. If he wanted to make progress, he had to spend money. Originally, he blew a lot of wind in the ear of the prince. A lot, but he ignored Master Xiao.

It was only at this time that Zhou Shuren deeply realized that he and Master Xiao were not only about ideas, but also the distance between the times. The generation gap of hundreds of years was not something he could easily change.

Mr. Xiao has never been rich since he was the Minister of the Ministry of Households. This money is very important in Mr. Xiao’s heart. In addition to the prejudice against the Ministry of Industry, Mr. Xiao can approve two silver coins because of the prince’s face. .

Xiao Qing's attitude is very firm. He knows that Zhou Shuren has a good attitude towards the Ministry of Industry, but there are too many places in the country where money is used. He is really afraid of the days without money, "Shuren, I know you value the Ministry of Industry, but this The silver official will not approve it."

Anyway, he would not approve it when he was in office. As for the future, that is Zhou Shuren's business.

After Zhou Shuren heard this, he didn't want to bother to convince Master Xiao, because it was useless, different departments thought differently, "Master, you are busy."

Xiao Qing nodded, "Yeah."

In the evening, when Zhou Shuren returned home, Zhou Shuren saw the glass in his wife's hand and was stunned, "Where did this thing come from?"

Zhulan looked at the glass with low transparency, and she was stunned for a while, and she said: "I didn't ask the Xu family to help buy the wood, when the Xu family came back from the sea to deliver the wood, they sent these two cups. ."

Zhou Shuren was reluctant to pick it up and look at it. It was really rough, but it was quite artistic. "This thing is not cheap abroad."

Zhulan put down the cup, "It's a lot cheaper than the ones sold by the stores in the capital."

Zhou Shuren thought of the attitude of Lord Xiao today, and sighed: "Whenever, we can make our own domestically."

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren really don't care about these two glasses. You expect modern people to care about these two glasses. Stop dreaming and signal Madam Song to put them away.

Zhulan said again: "Zhang Jinghong is back."

Zhou Shuren was surprised, "How did you know the news?"

Why didn't he hear?

Zhulan chuckled lightly, "Don't underestimate me, don't look at me in the backyard, but I'm very well informed. Since I came to the capital, I have taken comfort in my heart and always pay attention to the size of the capital."

She knows too well that sometimes small news can affect too much.

Zhou Shuren changed his clothes, "What else did you find out?"

Zhulan took the clothes, "Zhang Jinghong was carried out of the palace, and it is said that he was seriously injured."

Zhou Shuren gave a thumbs up, "It's pretty detailed, it's amazing."

In order to get more news, Zhulan also put a lot of thought into choosing the smart ones from the servants, but also the loyal ones. Her efforts were not in vain.

In fact, these news are not secrets, the movement of the Fifth Prince's Palace is too great.

Zhu Lan waited for Zhou Shuren to change clothes, "We're all waiting for us to eat. Your eldest grandson is here, and he's been talking about you all afternoon."

Zhou Shuren thought of his grandson, and his smile deepened. Every time the eldest daughter wrote a letter, the eldest grandson would add a few strokes. People's feelings come from getting along, and the child's feelings for him can be seen between the lines, "Okay."

At the dinner table, Zhou Shuren patted the seat next to him, and said to his shy grandson, "Come and sit."

Jiang Du looked at the big cousin who had stepped aside, and was a little confused. Grandpa liked him, and he was happy, but he took up the position of the big cousin, and he felt as if he had robbed something, and his face flushed.

When Mingyun came back from school, although he didn't communicate much with his cousin, he knew enough about this cousin. He knew in his heart that he was worried and pulled his cousin with a smile, "Sit down, don't be cautious as a family."

It turned out that Jiang Du was sitting in Ming Teng's seat, only close to Zhou Shuren across Ming Yun.

This made the arrangement no problem, Ming Yun, the eldest grandson, was recognized by several rooms.

Jiang Du sat down and looked at several uncles. The uncles all looked at him with encouraging eyes. His nervousness disappeared, and he sat on the chair with his **** relaxed.

Zhou Shuren asked his grandson to be by his side, just hoping to give the child some confidence and let the child relax a little, but he was more cautious and could only say to the eldest grandson: "Your cousin is familiar with you at home in the past two days, and we will meet in two days. Send it to the academy, and then grandpa will leave Jiang Du to you to take care of it."

Mingyun smiled, "Grandpa, grandson will take good care of my cousin, don't worry."

Zhou Shuren was relieved to his eldest grandson, and said to his grandson, "This is your home too. You are coming home, not a guest. If you feel uncomfortable, tell your grandfather and grandma."

Jiang Du has relaxed, he feels welcome to him, "En."

He has received a lot of gifts. The eldest uncle and aunt gave him a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the second aunt and uncle gave him a purse, and the purse was filled with silver bills, the third aunt gave him a jade pendant, and the fourth aunt gave him a gift. The bag of golden beans, the fourth uncle sent him many copybooks.

The third uncle came back from the Hanlin Academy and also made up the gift, and gave him a book.

The eldest cousin and cousin also gave him things after school. The eldest cousin gave him the reading notes sorted out by his cousin, and so did Ming Teng and Ming Rui.

In fact, he was a little frightened~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Well, he was frightened by the fourth aunt. He heard that the fourth aunt had the most money, but he was still suppressed by the fourth aunt's arrogance.

Zhou Shuren asked his grandson about clan studies at the dinner table. The grandson knew about these things, and when there was a topic to talk about, the grandson became more and more relaxed.

After the meal, Zhou Shuren took his grandson to the study room again. Seeing his grandson clenched his hands nervously, he laughed and said, "Don't be nervous, it's as if your grandfather and I are serious."

Ming Teng rolled his eyes all the time, this is the smell of the fragrance in the distance, and the grandson of the grandfather who is not easy to see is so kind!

Jiang Du smiled lightly, and he was less nervous after hearing what Grandpa said, "Grandpa, I'm not nervous anymore."

Zhou Shuren looked at the funny Ming Teng, and made a note in his heart. Since Ran Xun came to the capital, this kid has become more courageous, and he feels that he is complaining in his heart. Do you really think he can't see it?

Ming Teng shuddered and peeked at his grandfather. Seeing that his grandfather didn't look at him, he was puzzled. Why did he have a bad feeling?
