house life

Chapter 66

When Zhu Zhen was learning how to cook, her family always praised her for her talent in order to encourage her, but she had to cook a little more, so that her hands would feel good in the future, and the dishes she cooked would be very delicious.

Because of this, Zhu Zhen was willing to practice cooking more. The more she practiced, the taste of the dishes was indeed much better, and she became more confident.

At other times, Zhao Yu would indulge her.

But during the Chinese New Year, when Zhu Zhen wanted to cook for her family, Zhao Yu couldn't say anything against it, so she could only ask her sister-in-law, Bruce, to handle it.

Because of this, Bruce smiled and said to Zhu Zhen: "Jen'er, during Chinese New Year, when there are many guests at home, you can arrange what your younger sisters do.

On New Year's Eve, when there are few guests at home, you take your younger sisters to work on your own affairs. "

Zhu Zhen was already the governor, and she asked Zhu Yun afterwards: "Is my cooking delicious?"

Zhu Yun is probably the only one in this family who can tell the truth to her. Sure enough, she said very bluntly: "It's just cooked. It's edible anyway. It's not delicious."

After Zhu Yun finished speaking, he looked at the expression on her face: "Sister, do you want me to learn how to cook with you?"

Zhu Zhen shook her head, she knew her parents' plans for Zhu Yun, and she would not let Zhu Yun touch the cold water for a year or two.

After a long time like this, Zhu Yun will no longer get sick, and the people in the town will gradually forget about Zhu Yun's previous illness.

It's the Chinese New Year, everyone congratulates everyone, Shu Ling and Liu Niuniu come to Zhu's house to celebrate the New Year, and sister Zhu Zhen follows them to Shu's house to celebrate the New Year.

The Zhu family sisters are getting older, and they can't walk around the town like Shu Ling and Liu Niuniu to celebrate the new year without any scruples.

Zhu Yun heard Shu Ling and Liu Niuniu talking about the fun of New Year greetings, and said to Zhu Zhen enviously, "Sister, I should have gone out and followed you around to visit New Years."

Zhu Zhen listened to Zhu Yun's words and said with a smile: "You are young now, if you want to go out to give everyone New Year's greetings, it's still okay."

Zhu Yun shook his head, she is not too young, so it is better not to join in the fun.

For Shu Ling, Chinese New Year is the happiest day. When her father is at home, her mother will not scold her. Brothers and sisters are also free and will accompany her to make trouble in the yard.

"Hahaha, second brother, you lost to third brother again."

"Ling'er, you can go ahead."

"No, I'm young. When I grow up, if I fight with my brothers again, I will definitely not lose too much."

In the room, the old man of the Shu family and Yang Shi looked at each other and smiled. The old man of the Shu family stroked his beard and said, "There are so many people in the family, Ling'er looks much more lively."

"You can't praise Ling'er like this in front of the third child's family. She wholeheartedly wants to train Ling'er to become a dignified lady."

The old man of the Shu family raised his eyebrows. The third member of the family had such great ambitions for his daughter, but he still liked to hear his granddaughter's laughter.

He said to Yang: "Talk to the third family, the child is still young, so there is no need to treat her like a wooden person."

Yang looked at him angrily: "It's Chinese New Year's day, you should say something nice."

"Life is easier now, and you have more things to believe in. Forget it, I'll go around under the old banyan tree. There should be someone by this time."

The old man of the Shu family went out of the room. When the grandsons and granddaughters saw him, they naturally surrounded him.

He waved at his granddaughters and asked his grandsons, "Which one of you will accompany me for a walk under the old banyan tree?"

Shu Xianming immediately expressed that he would like to go out with his grandfather for a while.

Shu Ling yelled from the side: "Grandfather, my brother and I will accompany you around outside."

The old man of the Shu family liked his granddaughter approaching him the most, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go."

The grandparents and grandchildren went out, and the old man of the Shu family was walking among the grandchildren. When he met someone he knew, he was quite disgusted and said to them: "The brothers and sisters must follow me out to play."

Brother and sister Shu Xianming exchanged glances, and they both greeted passers-by with the same enthusiasm.

"Brother Ming, when will you go to the city to study?"

"It's coming soon, I will go to the city to study in a few days."

"Brother Ming, when can you take the exam for a scholar?"

"Don't dare, I'm not very good at learning now, I still have to work hard for a year or two."

The old master of the Shu family and Shu Ling gradually walked in the front, the old master of the Shu family said to Shu Ling in a low voice: "Everyone came to inquire about things with your brother, they came to persuade your father back then, saying that the children don't need to be sent to the city read."

The Shu family naturally understood that it was not easy for Shu Xianming to study in the city, but they also understood the benefits of it.

Under the old banyan tree, there were already many people talking in small groups. When the old man of the Shu family met his old partner, he naturally told his grandchildren not to accompany him.

Ever since Shu Xianming went to study in the city, his former playmates have been far away from him. He looked around, but he didn't see anyone he used to befriend.

Shu Ling and Shu Xianming turned around the old banyan tree, and Shu Xianming said to her: "Linger, you don't have to accompany me, you can go play with them."

"No. Let me talk to my brother. Brother, is there a place for girls to study in the city?"

Shu Xianming was stunned for a moment, carefully scrutinized the face of the youngest sister, and saw the strong curiosity in her eyes.

"Some big families set up primary schools for their daughters."

Shu Ling laughed: "In a few years, the older brothers will get married, and there will be more nephews and nieces. We can also become a big family."

"Ling'er, a big family doesn't just mean that there are more people, but also that there are more promising people in the family. Our generation is a bit difficult, and the next generation may have some hope."

It's also inconvenient for Shu Xianming to talk too much with his younger sister, but Shu Ling seemed to understand: "I know that it is a long way to go before our family becomes a big family. Brothers work hard, nephews work hard, and one day we will be able to accomplish something." .”

Shu Xianming laughed, and still told Shu Ling not to casually talk about this matter with anyone in the future.

Shu Ling smiled and said: "Brother, I understand, bragging is not good. People from Sister Hua's family bragging will ruin Sister Hua's marriage."

Shu Xianming was stunned, but he didn't want his little sister to explain these things to him.

So Shu Xianming talked to Shu Ling about reading, and Shu Ling suddenly became serious. Liu Niuniu is now desperately learning to read, and Shu Ling doesn't want to be inferior to Liu Niuniu in the future, so naturally he put some effort into reading.

After Shu Xianming talked to Shu Ling for a few words, he knew that his sister could indeed recognize a lot of characters. He said to Shu Ling, "I will choose a book that suits you next time."

"Well, I want to read the law. I hear it's a very useful book."

Shu Xianming didn't expect his little sister to know the law book, so he asked curiously, "Why do you think of reading the law book?"

"Sister Yun said, I have to read the book to know whether it is very useful."
