Chapter 362: jealous

After arriving in Lizhou, this is the first time Zhulan has received a letter from her hometown, "Is it only a letter?"

Butler Ding said: "This is a letter sent by a fast horse, only letters."

Zhulan signaled Steward Ding to go out, and when Zhulan was left in the house, Zhulan opened the letter, thinking as she opened the letter, not only was she busy this month, but the Yang family was also busy.

Dad saw that she bought a mountain and built an ice cellar. After seeing the mountain and the ice cellar in person, she went back and bought a hundred acres of mountain fruit trees, but the Yang family did not have a strong bamboo orchid family, and they bought fruit trees that were three years old. The rest of the money was used to buy 90 mu of dry fields and 10 mu of paddy fields, and the family wealth that Dad had saved all his life was basically gone. Zhulan mentioned to lend her father money, but her father did not agree, she just asked her to help her parents more when selling apples.

Because of Zhulan's actions, some officials in Lizhou City followed suit and bought a lot of apples grown in the mountains. Later, a chain reaction was triggered. The mountains near Lizhou City were sold. A lot of income.

Zhulan's letter was opened, and the number of pages was nine. This is a lot of things! The letter was written by the second child. When the list of the Golden List written at the beginning was passed down, several elders in the clan were amused. Fortunately, there was no serious problem. He said that the family members came and went, and the nearby squires came to give gifts. Dong The county magistrate's attitude was also very low, and he was very polite to Zhou Lao Er.

Zhulan continued to read the next page, Zhou Lao Er wrote: "After Chang Lian returned home, his son was happy that his father became a prefecture, but he regretted that his son could not be filial by his parents' side. The son was very concerned about his parents and asked Chang Lian to know The father and mother are all well, and the son feels a little at ease."

Then I wrote about how to worship ancestors, and I wrote that the Pingzhou house was sold for 1,300 taels, saying that I would bring it with me when I came to Lizhou City in autumn.

Zhulan looked happy and bought more than she thought. She thought it was a thousand taels, but she didn't expect it to be three hundred taels higher.

Zhulan continued to watch, and Zhou Lao Er wrote: "Everything is fine at my parents' house, Yushuang is like a big girl, but I just want to miss my grandparents very much, Mingrui has also grown up, and it's good that people don't have a good memory. Ask your son where his grandparents have gone." Zhu Lan narrowed her eyes, if she were not a cheap mother, she would not read the letter objectively, Zhou Lao Er realized the crisis and tried to brush her filial piety!

After reading two more pages of the letter, the smile on Zhulan's face disappeared. The second child Zhou said that the Zhao family knew about the Zhou family when they exchanged food for the Zhao family. The people from the Zhao family came to the door, and the uncle and cousin of the Zhao family came in person and asked him to drive them out.

Zhou Lao Er wrote: "I'm looking for someone to investigate the Zhao family, but I'm just afraid that my parents will write a letter and send it over first. My parents can rest assured that I will take care of the Zhao family and take good care of my younger siblings."

Zhu Lan believed that Zhou Lao Er could handle it well, and Zhou Lao Er said Xuemei and the children. The twins were very obedient. Jiang Sheng also bought three acres of land. The remaining two pages of the letter were written Changzhi, Changlian, and reading. Ming Yun and Rong Chuan, the two I mentioned first, achieved good grades in reading, and they have grown a lot taller.

Then I said Chang Lian. After Chang Lian came home, he could study with peace of mind. The Dong family came to invite Chang Lian to go out, but Chang Lian did not go out. As for Chang Zhi, Chang Zhi would also come to Lizhou together in autumn. Zhi and Xu Jinshi went on a study tour.

Zhulan put down the letter and sighed in her heart that separation would indeed weaken her feelings, especially since she and Zhou Shuren had only been in ancient times for three years, and they finally felt like parents again. As for adults, she really rarely thinks about it when she is busy.

That's not right, she misses Xuemei very much. Every time she buys something for Xuehan, she will think of Xuemei. With Xuehan by her side, she also buys a lot of things for Xuemei.

Zhulan didn't have to wait for Zhou Shuren to read the letter and replied directly, because even if Zhou Shuren read it, he would not reply in person.

In the house of Lijia Village, Zhou Lao Er and Chang Lian sit opposite each other. Zhou Lao Er is the second master of the Zhou family when he goes out now. The clothes are all newly made and made of materials from the capital. Even if they have an honest face, no one dares to look down on them. There have been a lot of banquets recently, and Zhou Lao Er has gained weight.

Zhou Lao Er drank tea and said, "I don't know if the letter arrived in Lizhou or not, and I don't know what the situation in Lizhou City is."

He was worried that his father could handle the matter of Lizhou City.

Chang Lian now completely worships his father, "The emperor values ​​him, and he will definitely find a way to deal with the problems of Lizhou City. I will know when I reply."

Zhou Lao Er put down the teacup, he really wanted to go to Lizhou City immediately, he envied the boss now, he used to think it was miserable to be the boss, but now he wished he was the boss, "I don't know if the eldest brother can help his parents. "

Chang Lian was silent, "Big brother is no longer the old big brother."

When I see big brother again, it will be difficult for him and the second brother to cheat big brother. He has been training for more than a year to be alone, and his parents teach each other hand-in-hand. He is very envious in his heart.

Zhou Lao Er was also silent. It turns out that his parents prefer Hanhan, yes, when we meet again, Hanhan will no longer be Hanhan.

Zhou Lao Er thought of Wang Lao Si. In the past, Wang Lao Si could be mad at him Now Wang Lao Si pleases him and calls him Lord Tuesday, and he will never show off the separation.

In the house, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Dong were embroidered with handkerchiefs, and Mrs. Zhao was in a good mood. This time, Mrs. Dong had no advantage anymore. The father-in-law's grade was higher than that of the grandfather of Dong County, and he was valued by the emperor.

The head of the family said, how many government officials have never seen the emperor in their entire lives, the father-in-law not only met, but also was reused. Look at Dong's meticulous treatment of Chang Lian, and also respect her second sister-in-law.

Zhao Shi was happy for a while and her mood became depressed again. She used to be by her mother-in-law's side, and she could still compete with her sister-in-law for her mother-in-law's attention. Now her mother-in-law has only her sister-in-law in front of her. God hurts stupid people?

The Dong family has already experienced a gap. Since the father-in-law was awarded the tribute, his parents told her that she is the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, and nothing else. The identity that can be obtained in the future will also depend on the Zhou family.

Not to mention that the father-in-law became the second place, as soon as he took office, he was Zhizhou, or the Zhizhou of Zhili Prefecture. Dad said that as long as the father-in-law can stabilize the city of Lizhou, the future of the father-in-law is unlimited.

When she returned to her parents' house now, her brothers and sisters-in-law called her Mrs. Zhou's second wife, not the younger sister. Thinking about the faces of the sisters-in-law and the relatives who were embarrassed for Chang Lian, not only did they come to the house to apologize, but also to the strong The seller gave half of the money earned by the seller, which is a thousand taels!

It's a pity that the husband said that all the money belonged to my sister-in-law. I gave all the money from the seller to my sister-in-law. My father-in-law and mother-in-law have warned that it is okay to count outsiders, but not family members. This thousand taels are to be given to Lizhou City. Sister-in-law's. As for why the second uncle was not allowed to write the letter, the reason was very simple. Both the husband and the second uncle were jealous of the elder brother and sister-in-law, and naturally they were reluctant to tell the good news.

Not to mention her husband, she is jealous of her sister-in-law, but luckily she will be able to go to Lizhou City in a few months!
