The peasant widow is famous all over the world

Chapter 96 Taking care of children is not easy

When Tang Mian returned to the room, he saw that the little guy he had coaxed to sleep was still sleeping soundly. He smiled slightly and went to bed next to him, closed his eyes, and entered the space.

Remembering that he had to clean up the house in the afternoon, Tang Mian did not stay in the space longer.

After about an hour, I left the space, gathered my energy and walked out of the room.

"Mom, let me do it!" When Tang Mian walked into the kitchen, Mrs. Li was already packing the cupboards.

When Mrs. Li saw Tang Mian coming in, she was not polite, gave up her seat, and took a long broom to sweep the dust in the kitchen.

Tang Mian walked over and opened the cupboard, took out everything inside, twisted the handkerchief and wiped the cupboard inside and out.

As soon as they finished wiping, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Here we come!" Tang Mian put down the veil, walked out and opened the door.

Opening the door, Tang Mian saw a middle-aged man with half a beard and a radiant face. This man was clearly Zhu Guoren.

"Uncle Li Zheng." Tang Mian greeted politely.

Zhu Guoren was even more polite than Tang Mian, with a gentle smile on his well-maintained face, "Mian Niang, you didn't go into the mountains to collect herbs today!"

"No." Tang Mian shook his head slightly, "Uncle Li Zheng, please come in."

Zhu Guoren nodded with a smile and followed Tang Mian into the house.

"Uncle Li Zheng, please sit down for a moment and I'll call my father." Tang Mian led Li Zheng to the main room and sat down, and said.

"No need." Zhu Guoren waved his hand, "I brought Lu Yanxiu's household registration to you, and it's the same as giving it to you."

Tang Mian's eyebrows were filled with joy, "Zhuang Zhuang's household registration has been completed!"

Zhu Guoren was stunned, and for a moment he didn't realize who Zhuangzhuang was talking about in Tang Mian's mouth.

"It's Yan Xiu, Zhuang Zhuang is his nickname." Tang Mian explained.

Zhu Guoren suddenly said, "Oh, that's it!"

"This is the child's household registration. Take a look." Zhu Guoren took out the completed household registration and handed it to Tang Mian.

Tang Mian took it happily, opened it and looked at it, "Thank you, Uncle Li Zheng."

"You're welcome, you're welcome, that's right." Zhu Guoren responded with a smile.

After finishing his words, he paused and asked again: "Mian Niang, I heard that the county magistrate and the county magistrate's wife will come to see you in a few days. Can you tell me which day it will be?"

Knowing that Tang Mian had a relationship with the county magistrate, he went to the county government office to apply for household registration without stopping, and also inquired whether the matter was true.

Although he didn't get a definite answer, he found out that Tang Mian had indeed entered the county government office unimpeded a few days ago and even went to the back hall.

Come to think of it, we are almost inseparable.

Tang Mian's expression of joy froze, then he shook his head nonchalantly and said, "I'm not sure of the specific time. It probably depends on when my brother-in-law is free."

It seems that this is the real reason why Li Zheng took the initiative to give away household registration.

Zhu Guoren's eyelids twitched when he heard Tang Mian directly address the county magistrate as brother-in-law. After thinking about it, he should not have offended her in the past.At most, the work was delayed a bit and the gifts were a bit heavy.

From now on, there will be more courtesy exchanges.

"Mian Niang, the arrival of the county magistrate is a big event. Remember to let someone know when the time comes." Zhu Guoren's gentle tone contained a hint of goodwill.

Tang Mian smiled and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, don't worry, someone will definitely inform you."

Although he has the county magistrate as his backer, Li Zheng's power and prestige are not small in the village. If he makes good friends, he can save a lot of effort.

"Okay." Zhu Guoren was relieved.

Just as he was about to leave, Lu Zheng came in.

"Li Zheng is here." Lu Zheng looked at Zhu Guoren and said hello with a smile. After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Tang Mian with a slight reproach in his tone, "Mian Niang, you didn't even call me."

He taught Zhuang Zhuang how to recite in the house. If the old lady hadn't informed him, he wouldn't have known that Li Zheng was here.

Tang Mian opened her mouth and was about to say something when Zhu Guoren spoke one step ahead of her, "Brother Zheng, don't blame Mian Niang. I didn't let her call you."

There was nothing wrong with Zhu Guoren's words, but his title made Lu Zheng look at him in surprise.My brother has already called me. When did the relationship between me and Li Zheng become so good?

After thinking about it, he suddenly realized that Li Zheng must have also heard about the Yamen's visit to his house.

"I wrongly blamed Mian Niang." Lu Zheng turned to look at Tang Mian.Tang Mian shook his head slightly, saying it didn't matter.

Lu Zheng turned his attention back to Zhu Guoren and said, "Li Zheng, come here, but what's the matter?"

Zhu Guoren smiled and said, "Your grandson's household registration has been completed. I happened to have time, so I brought it over. Now that the things have been delivered, I won't stay any longer and say goodbye."

Lu Zheng looked happy, and then he noticed the paper in Tang Mian's hand.

He was surprised that it was done so quickly!

According to usual experience, as long as it is not a particularly urgent matter, Li Zheng can handle it in ten days and a half, which is considered fast.

"How can I be embarrassed to ask you to make a special trip?" Lu Zheng said politely.

Zhu Guoren waved his hand generously, "Nothing to be embarrassed about. I'm fine anyway. I can take a look at the situation in Qingyuan Village when I send it over."

"By the way, your rice has been dried. The tax collectors will be here in a few days."

Lu Zheng nodded repeatedly, "It's all done, don't worry."

"Brother Zheng is doing things, so I can rest assured." Zhu Guoren stroked his beard and said with a smile.

After finishing his words, he waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving now, you guys can take your time and get busy."

"I'll see you off." Lu Zheng turned sideways to make way.

Zhu Guoren stopped him, "No, Brother Zheng, stay here."

After Zhu Guoren left, Lu Zheng asked Tang Mian, "Mian Niang, besides sending you the household registration, did Li Zheng say anything else?"

"Yes." Tang Mian nodded, "He asked Sister Zhuang and brother-in-law when they would arrive at our house, but unfortunately, I don't know either."

Tang Mian looked helpless.

Lu Zheng was in a good mood, "Nothing, as long as the county magistrate and the others can come."

Tang Mian thought so too.

"By the way, Dad, Zhuangzhuang's household registration is for you, please keep it." Tang Mian handed the household registration in his hand to Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng took it without hesitation, "Okay."

He keeps the household registration of everyone in the family.

"Dad, I'm going to clean up the house." Tang Mian greeted Lu Zheng, then turned around and walked out of the main room to continue his unfinished work.

Tang Mian left and Lu Zheng also returned to the room.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by Zhuang Zhuang's eyes full of curiosity.

Lu Zheng has a headache!

Suddenly, I felt that I should keep Li Zheng chatting all afternoon and then have dinner with him.

Mian Niang has been busy these past two days and has no time to teach the little guy. He just rushes to the shelf and teaches a few words.

But he had only learned a few enlightening books and didn't know many words.After so many years, I have already mastered the few things my husband taught me.

Now, he really can’t teach!

"Zhuangzhuang, look. Grandpa has taught you a lot. In the next time, you should review and improve your memory. When your mother is free, let her teach you slowly, okay?" He was discussing with Zhuang Zhuang with a smile on his face.

Zhuang Zhuang blinked, stared at him for a moment, and nodded, "Okay."

"Hey, good boy!" Lu Zheng patted his thigh happily when the crisis was over, "Then you slowly study your books first, and grandpa will go out to help. If you encounter something you don't understand, just write it down and ask your mother at night. "

"I know, Grandpa." The little guy responded crisply.

In an instant, Lu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Be good!"

He smiled and touched Zhuang Zhuang's head, turned around and walked out of the room.

After leaving the door, he immediately wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It’s not easy to take care of children!
