Chapter 803: Hu Xia

Chapter 803 Hu Xia

Mrs. Jin, "The more than 60 taels of silver for compensation today, big sister, you are going to pay, and the accident today is because you are going out."

Hu's eyes widened. Her dowry also had a small shop, more than ten acres of land, and some old jewelry. She and her son lived in her eldest brother's house. This is a huge sum, and my son bought materials today for the ceremony of apprenticeship.

Hu Shi, "sister-in-law, we don't have that much money."

The son reads, the eldest brother's books can be read, but the pen, ink, paper and inkstone must be bought by herself. The money of the academy, the annual expenses are also a lot, plus the eldest brother's birthday and some favors, she really has no money.

Jin snorted, "This is just to accompany Yinzi, and the young lady who injured the third-rank official's family. When the master comes back, he will come to the door to apologize, and you will have to give out the gifts."

Hu Shi's hair was dizzy, and he was a little stimulated, and he almost didn't fall.

In the evening, the Zhou family's dinner was very lively. Today, Rong Chuan came back for dinner, but unfortunately it will not be easy for Rong Chuan to stay overnight in the future. It is rare to come back, and Zhou Shuren is also happy.

Zhou Shuren looked at the calmness between the boy's eyebrows, and felt proud in his heart. Look, the child he has taught has a good temperament, and his identity has changed so much, the child is still not arrogant or impetuous, "Okay, good boy, come and have a drink with uncle. ."

Rong Chuan still likes the atmosphere of the Zhou family the most. It's not that the Ning family treats him badly, but the rules are too big. The two cousins ​​are even more courteous to him, and he is very uncomfortable.

Rong Chuan held the wine glass, "Uncle, your kindness to your nephew is in the wine, and your nephew will always remember it in his heart."

Zhou Shuren drank the wine in his glass, "Uncle don't ask you to think about the Zhou family more, just treat Xuehan well in the future, and don't let Xuehan be wronged."

This girl has grown up. Zhou Shuren and Zhulan treat Xuehan better than her son. This girl has been a little padded jacket for so many years. If her son-in-law is not Rong Chuan, he has too many ways to toss his future son-in-law.

Rong Chuan's ears were slightly red, thinking of the days when his father and him got married, and looking at his uncle and aunt, he felt guilty, he was so inappropriate, and his uncle and aunt loved Xuehan so much, he kept looking at him, " Uncle, nephew said that no matter how much, it is better to act, nephew will not let you down."

When Zhulan heard this, Zhulan still understood the child she raised, but Rong Chuan was moved by the idea of ​​getting married. This Zhulan understood that in ancient times, it was early to get married, and it was not normal for Rong Chuan to not want it when he was old. Now I see Rong Chuan. His demeanor, this kid has changed his mind?

If you dare to be good, it is best to delay it until the end of next year. You are not afraid of getting married in winter. If you delay it until the end of next year, Xuehan will also be a big girl.

Just after dinner was finished and Rong Chuan had just left, Butler Wang came in and said, "Master, Director Hu of the Household Department brought his nephew to apologize and is waiting at the concierge."

Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows, "It seems that Mr. Hu is the one who caused the trouble today. It's a coincidence, it turned out to be from the Ministry of Housing."

Zhu Lan said: "It's not the Ministry of Household, and I wouldn't have guessed that it was our family so quickly, and I wouldn't have rushed to make amends."

Zhou Shuren said to Wang Guanjia: "Invite someone to the front yard."

With that said, Zhou Shuren got up to go to the front yard, and Zhulan got up too, "I'll go take a look too."

Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows, "You want to see the boy on the street?"

Zhulan nodded, "Although I only heard a few words, I can still guess that this child is not easy. The purse that was handed to me at that time was all old, and this Master Hu brought his nephew to apologize, which is interesting, I think go and see."

Zhou Shuren really didn't pay attention to the details. At that time, all his attention was on his daughter-in-law and his own children.

Zhulan and his wife were full, and when they reached the front yard, Master Hu and his nephew were already waiting in the hall, and Butler Wang served tea.

Hu Xia panicked. When he heard the lady's description of the adult's appearance, his mind went blank. The boss of his immediate boss, no, it should be said, it may be the future minister of the household. When they chatted, they all thought that Zhou Lord Qiu has a better chance of ascending to the position of the minister than Lord Qiu.

He brought his nephew without changing his official uniform in a hurry. He didn't plan to bring his nephew. The lady hates the eldest sister and her nephew, but he won't. Dudu relies on the lady, as long as the lady doesn't really hurt anyone, he doesn't dare to say a word.

But not saying a word does not mean that his mind is not clear, and his brain is not good enough to prevent him from entering the household department. He knows in his heart that it is the daughter who caused the trouble today, and his nephew is going to follow, and he is moved.

Hu Xia heard the footsteps and saw Shi Lang Zhou, his legs were a little weak, "Go down, I have seen Lord Zhou before."

Gu Liufeng also hurriedly greeted her, "I have seen Lord Zhou."

Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows. This kid is stronger than Hu Xia. Although he is nervous, his tone is very steady, "This is not in the Ministry of Housing, Hu Xia, don't be nervous, just sit down."

Hu Xia's mind is a little white, and the head of the household is the most, and said excitedly: "Sir, do you know the name of the lower official?"

Zhou Shuren, "Yes."

He kept all the people in the Ministry of Household in his heart, Hu Xia, he knew it, this boss is not public, he belongs to the person who works hard, and it has been in the boss for many years. This time, the boss sent the boss to go to sea. It was an opportunity. At that time, he remembered that there was Hu Xia among the few principals who did not perform.

It's just that I didn't expect that this hard-working man would have a powerful wife.

Zhou Shuren didn't dare to sit still when he saw that Hu Xia's buttocks were too firm, and he said, "I know your intention, the matter was over on the street at that time, you can go back with a gift."

Hu Xia didn't know what to do. In addition to guessing who was the next minister, they also gossip. They all agreed that Lord Zhou was amazing, especially that Lord Zhou always had a smile. I only hope that I can be promoted to the middle-ranking officer, but I don't want to end my career. "Sir, today is the lower official who did not educate his daughter well. In the future, there will be more disciplines. Please accept this gift."

Zhulan looked at the gift box on the table, frowned, and nodded to Mrs. Song.

When Mrs. Song went out, Zhou Shuren watched and quickly understood the intention of her daughter-in-law. Mrs. Song came back quickly with a purse in her hand.

Seeing the lady nodded, Zhou Shuren said, "I won't accept this gift. Also, my eldest granddaughter is only slightly sprained. The doctor and the medicated oil didn't cost two taels of silver. I left some silver as my granddaughter. Overwhelmed, take the rest back."

If it wasn't for Hu Xia today, he really wouldn't have returned the money.

Hu Xia shivered when she saw the purse put down, "Sir, I can't do it."

Zhou Shuren raised his hand, "Okay, the gentleman, if the official said take it back, take it back."

Zhulan said at this time, "Our Zhou family is a principled person, Mr. Hu, bring back everything you brought."

Hu Xia heard that Lord Zhou's wife spoke up, but he was still uneasy. He felt that his nephew was pulling his sleeve. Suddenly, he could no longer refute, "Xiaguan thanked the Lord."

Zhou Shuren's eyes were more on the young man, he saw all the small movements just now, "Well, it's getting late, you guys can go back too."
