Chapter 209 The Happy Life of a Miser
Zhou Huan really can't be a profiteer.

Being a profiteer is exhausting, both physically and mentally.

You have to manage a lot of business, and you have to keep an eye on six roads and listen to all directions, for fear that others will compete with you or rob you, and beware of those people who are fawning on you and framing you at the same time.

To her, these things are not even the slightest bit of annoyance.

However, this does not delay her desire to be a miser.

For example, now, she is counting money under the quilt, and her counting fingers are almost shaved, but she never tires of it, and the more she counts, the more energetic she becomes.

When Sun Peifang entered the room to tidy up the kang, she saw arches and arches inside the quilt, and after a while there were a few hey laughter.

"You child, do you scare people in this room? It's daytime. If it's night, you can scare your sisters again."

Feeling uncomfortable under the quilt, Zhou Huan got out of it and took a deep breath, the hair on his head was stuck to his forehead.

"My sisters are very bold, so I'm just trying to scare Xiaoman and Sanliang."

Sun Peifang glanced at the kang, with surprise and excitement in her eyes, "This is the money that Xishuashua has earned these days, so much?"

There were several strings of copper coins worn by Zhou Huan spread out on the bed, as well as a few dazzling white broken silver coins.

Sun Peifang picked up one and bit it with her teeth. It was only real money.

"Oh, auntie, don't bite, it's not clean."

Sun Peifang's eyes lit up, "It's real money, this is it, since the time I changed the bank note, I have never seen such a beautiful thing."

Zhou Huan said: "This ingot of silver is yours if you like it."

Sun Peifang hurriedly threw it down, "What's the matter, this is the money you earned, you keep it, and keep it as a dowry in the future, don't worry, you have a share yourself, and your aunt will give you another share when she earns money. It will definitely make you look good, "

"Hey, Auntie—" Zhou Huan hurriedly stopped Sun Peifang. This matter is still going on, so why keep bringing it up.

Sun Peifang thought to herself: Of course I have to mention it. How old are you and you still think of yourself as a child. I didn't care about you when we were fleeing. Right now I have more time to spend time with you. Why are you so embarrassed?

"Okay, so what, when will Xiaoman come back today, let's go to plant seeds in the field, this job needs to be done by many people now, such a large piece of land, but I can't do it by myself."

Don't let you do more if you are capable, Zhou Huan pressed Sun Peifang on the kang and asked her to lie down, sat on Sun Peifang's tailbone while nagging, and began to massage.

"I only know what Jingui's hand is now, Auntie, your hand is now, do you know how much your hand is worth now?"

"How much is it worth?"

Sun Peifang giggled and didn't take it seriously.

"It may be a small number to achieve this number in a year."

Zhou Huan compared one to another, and Sun Peifang lazily said: "One or two dollars? That's designated, it's too little, let's say ten taels, ten taels will win."

After finishing speaking, he continued to bury his face under his arms, and roughly calculated in his heart. In addition to the ten taels of money, plus the harvest of the family's several acres of land, one year can catch up with what they earned together in the first few years.

Happiness is so simple, my heart suddenly warmed up.

"It's not ten taels, it's a hundred taels, 100 taels."

"What?!" Did she hear wrongly or something, she had to turn around to see Zhou Huan's expression.

Hmm... very serious, not like a joke.

She knew that her niece was recognized as very smart, and she was very clear about calculations. If she dared to say this number, it must be this number.

God, 100 taels of silver, a net profit of 100 taels of silver?
Zhou Huan nodded, not paying attention.

After all, I am a small landlord with 100 taels in my pocket, so I don't really feel much about [-] taels a year.

"100 taels? Can Guangxiufang earn 100 taels?"

"Well, of course, I'm also responsible for this. If it weren't for the styles I drew, I would be concerned about comparing our clothes with other clothes, and there would be nothing special about them."

This time, Zhou Huan has already thought about it, she has to recall memories, search carefully in her head, what are the merits in the design of those modern clothes, and what kind of tricks are on those Hanfu of a certain treasure .

Neither too ordinary nor too tricky, the clothes of the ancients should still be practical.

Zhou Huan squinted his eyes and nodded. Just as he was thinking, a burst of moisture suddenly appeared on his cheeks, not just at once.

Bajibaji, Sun Peifang kissed her several times, and Zhou Huan was about to be slobbered.

On the other side, while waiting for the villagers to pick him up today, Xiaoman poured tea dregs for Lou Dehua twice.

Different from the noisy children outside the bamboo curtain, their side is extraordinarily elegant and quiet.

"King You has always been good at raising children, especially Hou Ye's family. Both the eldest son and the eldest concubine are not people who hate the poor and love the rich, and have eyes higher than the top. Xiaoyou Huan is lucky to meet them both."

Zhou Man stacked the ancient books on the table and put them back on the bookshelf, and chatted with Lou Dehua every now and then.

"That's true, but I don't think my sister has any intention of getting close to these high-ranking officials. Xu Shi, Xu Shi still has knots in her heart."

Whether it's from a member's family, or a family of a fourth-rank official or above, or a figure in the sky like the Shizi Concubine.

Zhou Huan seemed to treat them all equally, and he didn't flatter them all the more, which Zhou Man was very pleased with.

But Zhou Man also had to worry about whether he had stayed in Fengtai County for a long time, and his sister had always had an indescribable prejudice against court officials.

If so, how should I look at him in the future, and how will he handle himself in the official position.

Hey, Zhou Man shook his head, it was a bit unfounded to worry about, the matter of the imperial examination has not yet been written off.

"What's wrong with this, as the saying goes, 'everything is born, and only one knows how to keep its root', the old man is right about my friend Huan, just as the old man is right about you."

Zhou Man scratched his head and smiled.

"It's true. The master always says that things come and go, and the future doesn't welcome. It's the apprentice who is asking for trouble."

This is another worry.

Lou Dehua smiled, "You have the talent to help, and you should think a lot. If your head is empty, why should I teach you?"

Not only Zhou Huan and Zhou Man, Lou Dehua's eyes fell on the children in the outer room through the gap of the bamboo curtain.

Don't think that they are not as good as Xiaoman in academics, but in the eyes of a master, each of them has something shining.

Goudanzi is naughty but brave, cowardly but discerning right from wrong, Xidi is a girl but has the same wisdom as a man.

These children are not flowers in the ivory tower who have not suffered. They are boys and girls who have escaped all the way, know the taste of suffering, know the hardships of life but still believe in the future.

Lou Dehua believes that if these children grow up one day, they will all become the pillars of the country.

Just at the right time, there were a few rushing sounds of going upstairs, and the clerk of the bookstore showed half of his head at the stairs and said: "Have you rested, sir, the son of Youwang Mansion is here to see you, Xiaomin, Xiaomin? "
