The landowner's wife of the imperial examination

Chapter 9 Rising to the Great Landlord

The village where the Zhou family lived came from Baoding House all the way through two slightly prosperous small towns.

Zhou Lan's Zhuangzi was located between the clan village and the small town.

The farmhouse that Zhou Peng bought at the beginning was right next to the town. At the head of the village, Zhou Lan and Jiang Changxi stood on the roadside and separated from the people of the same clan.

The old patriarch explained earnestly: "If you are missing something or have something to do, just go to the village to find our clan."

Zhou Lan saluted the old patriarch: "You must trouble the clan and the seventh master before you settle down."

Jiang Changxi saluted: "Wait for the granddaughter-in-law to clean up, and then invite the seventh grandfather to come and sit here with all the family members."

The old patriarch nodded. He was a sensible child with good manners.

Although the boss of the second room of the Zhou family is gone, the child seems to be able to support the family business.

What's more, when the eldest of the Zhou family was there, he set up a sacrificial field for the clan.

The descendants of the Zhou family have to take care of the child Zhou Lan for this point.

The old patriarch: "Let's settle down first, the rest are trivial matters."

A few clan aunts who used to eat wedding wine followed up: "Erlang's daughter-in-law, you're welcome, we'll come over and warm up the house for your young couple. It's getting late, so we won't disturb you."

Jiang Changxi blushed: "Thank you, my aunts, for your praise."

The women sat on the ox cart, and the mule cart went back to the village smiling.

Zhou Lan and Jiang Changxi stood by the carriage and watched the clansmen walk away.

This etiquette alone made the Zhou family understand that even if they were defeated, they were completely different.

If it wasn't for Erlang's father, how could he have been reduced to such a level?

A few clan aunts couldn't help but gossip: "The little second room is too unimportant, and the teenage children were kicked out."

Some people also said: "No matter what, there is still Zhuangzi, which is much better than ours."

That's true. For the Zhou family, the second house received most of the family wealth, but for these relatives, the Zhuangzi in the hands of Erlang and his wife were also family wealth they dared not imagine.

Looking at the food in the second room of the Zhou family, no matter how big the family wealth is, it can't subsidize their clansmen.

But Erlang and his wife are different. They live close by, and there is a real dilemma. It is possible to help them save the emergency.

Otherwise, the clan's spit stars can drown them.

If they don't get along well with such people, they are fools.

When the clansmen walked away, Zhou Lan asked the little daughter-in-law beside her, "Walk into Zhuangzi in a carriage, or come with me."

Jiang Changxi was tired from sitting in the car, and took Zhou Lan's hand: "Then take a walk and see our Zhuangzi."

Dafu next to him lowered his head, how reserved and dignified the girl was when she was in the manor.

I was dragging with my uncle, and I didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Zhou Lan was grabbed by someone's hand, and the roots of her ears were red, but she did not let go of Jiang Changxi's hand, and just replied: "Okay."

The young couple walked into Zhuangzi hand in hand, and looked at the surrounding scenery leisurely.

Dafu looked at the embroidered shoes of his young lady, and looked at the shoes on his feet. He thought to himself, Grandpa and Grandma, holding hands for outsiders to see, would be embarrassed, so he resolutely got into the carriage.

The lady has shoes to change and wash, but she still doesn't know where her things are, so be careful.

Fortunately, from afar, I saw someone trotting all the way to greet him.

Shunfeng came over and saluted Zhou Lan and Jiang Changxi: "Uncle, you brought the eldest grandma back."

Then he saluted Jiang Changxi: "Little Shunfeng is the long attendant of our uncle, Shunfeng pays respect to the big grandma."

This kid is articulate and has a pleasing appearance. Jiang Changxi touched his body. He didn't have a purse on his body, so how could he give him a reward?

Turning his head, Dafu handed over the purse, Jiang Changxi said solemnly: "Get up, it will be hard to be with your uncle in the future."

Shunfeng took the big grandma's reward with smiling hands: "Thank you for the big grandma's reward, the little one will definitely serve the uncle with all his heart."

Then he looked at his master and said in his heart that the eldest grandmother is young and experienced in her work.Even more thoughtful than the second lady in the old house.

Zhou Lan said in her heart that this daughter-in-law was young, so she might hold up the scene and look good.Didn't you see it? Shunfeng was stunned for a moment.

Zhou Lan: "Is Zhuangzi tidy up? Don't feel wronged by your eldest grandma."

Shunfeng: "Don't worry, uncle, Zhuangzi has been tidy up properly, grandpa and grandma's yard is properly arranged, and the little people are waiting to see grandpa and grandma on Zhuangzi. lead the way."

Then he said to Jiang Changxi: "The grandmother's dowry will arrive first, and the girl Dali is there to help you get back. The girl went to the stove. ."

Dafu took a deep breath, this kid is trying to please their girls, he is much smarter than himself, and he will have to work harder in the future.

No wonder I didn't find my own people when I was in Zhou Mansion, they were all here.

Jiang Changxi was also happy when he heard the news from his own people.Facing the downwind, quite satisfied.

When Tong Zhou Lan walked in all the way, he knew that Zhuangzi was very big, and he was a little panicked in his heart, afraid that there would be an emergency.

Knowing that Dali was here, Jiang Changxi felt really at ease.

This girl has no other ability, she has a lot of strength. When he was in the house, his father found someone to teach this girl specially for two years.

So this girl follows her with her, so her parents can rest assured.With this girl around, outsiders can't easily bully them.

As for the servants, the laws these days are quite strict, with distinct hierarchies.

People who don't force have no way to go and cannot survive, so the safety of the head of the family is guaranteed.

Zhou Lan took Jiang Changxi and walked quickly into Zhuangzi: "In a few days, I will take you to see Zhuangzi. Although it is a little remote, it is better than the beautiful scenery. I have been here for three years of filial piety. What is there in Zhuangzi? There's nothing missing, and it's very convenient for us to live in."

Jiang Changxi nodded, it turned out that he had been here for three years.

Zhou Lan was afraid that her little daughter-in-law would be afraid when she first arrived at a place, so she held Jiang Changxi's hand from beginning to end and did not let go.At this time, it is absolutely outrageous behavior.

Only Dafu lowered his head, lest others see him.

Changsui Shunfeng was stunned for a moment, then calmed down, whatever his uncle did was right.

Let Jiang Changxi say that Zhuangzi is very big, so big that he wants to take a carriage, and he is tired all the way in.

Zhou Lan used this time to explain some things to Jiang Changxi: "When my father was gone, I didn't understand anything. During the three years of filial piety, my grandfather even resigned from my husband. I had nothing to do, so I learned to do some common chores. "

Jiang Changxixin said that it is better to be knowledgeable and knowledgeable than to be abandoned: "You are really capable, and you can even help Zhuangzi."

Zhou Lan blushed a little when she was praised. Her daughter-in-law is a lady, and she may not know what the common service is.

Pointing to the surrounding land: "You don't think I have any prospects. These are all cultivated land on our village."

Jiang Changxi was even more satisfied, raised his eyes and looked around: "Is it all?"

Zhou Lan replied: "You can see it everywhere."
