Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Dingzhou Prefecture, Zhoujia Village.

Zhou Banxia and his party have been here for ten days.

The Zhou family was able to redress their injustice, and not only took back the entire village, but the court also rewarded the surrounding fertile land. However, after the disaster, the number of people was reduced.

It was said that the family had nearly a thousand male members from the side branch. Even though her master had concealed his identity in the past and helped the mother's family, she was still not optimistic.

Thinking about it, no matter how thin the direct lineage is, not all of them will be killed. All the minors will be exiled to the northwest, but in the end there will be none left.

Some could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide, some died on the road, and some died of serious illness in the exile. Due to various reasons, only Zhou Huan was left in the direct lineage.

It is difficult to investigate whether this was due to the side branch's anger against the direct lineage on the exile road. There are only about a hundred members of the side branch left.

Generations of old men and women risked their lives to protect just these one hundred or so men.

Nowadays, there are almost no elderly people over sixty found in the whole village. Those who do are holding back their anger and bringing their children and grandchildren back to their ancestral land, and it seems that they will not live for two or three years.

So miserable.

Zhou Banxia seemed to understand why her master refused to mention her father's family until death, didn't even want to have a child, and didn't scold her for having the ridiculous idea of ​​not getting married.

Poor Master.

Watching your father's and mother's families become life-and-death enemies, you must feel that the blood flowing on your body is dirty, that you are not worthy of being a mother, and that you would rather be a slave and live a life of atonement.

On this day, like her master, the Zhou family who had unfortunately died were also carried back to their hometown by their children and grandchildren to bury their ancestors. After the incident, the family property would be divided again three days later.

Dingzhou Zhou Dynasty has its own clan rules.

Logically speaking, Zhou Huan's first family, as a direct descendant, could get at least half of it, but except for the rewards designated by the edict, Zhou Huan gave up everything.

Even Master Zhou Banxia, ​​who according to etiquette and law, was not a daughter of the Zhou family, was regarded as a meritorious official by her mother's family and entered the ancestral tomb of her mother's family.

First, Zhou Huan worked hard to vindicate the family's grievances, but then there was an edict, and her master also left a last word not to adopt anyone in his name, so we couldn't afford to quarrel.

Zhou Banxia believed that the next division of the family property had nothing to do with her. He was thinking about how to propose a trip home to Mrs. Zhou when he received a letter from home.

Some of them were written by Gu Erzhu and Mrs. Liu to their old son and daughter-in-law, and some were written by Mrs. Li to Zhou Shun, Dajiang, Zhou Banxia and Gu Wenxuan respectively by Xiaohe and Liu.

There are also those written by Gu Erlang to his second brother Gu Wenxuan, those written by Ma Shan to Zhou Banxia, ​​those written by Xiao Baoya to her second brother and second sister-in-law, those written by Zhou Daya asked Xiaohe to ghostwrite, and those written by Patriarch Gu and Zhou Xiucai. etc.

A thick stack of letters popped out when I opened the wooden box.

Zhou Banxia took a pick.

Let Huiniang, Gu Dachang's daughter-in-law, deliver the letters to Zhou Huan and his wife to Mrs. Zhou, and give the letters to Zhou Shushun and Dajiang directly to Dajiang.

The remaining letters were for her and her husband. Gu Wenxuan first selected the letters written by Gu Erzhu and Liu.

Open it and take a look.

Sure enough, not only had arrangements been made at the Yizi Workshop, but even the oil extraction equipment had been stationed in the oil extraction workshop, just waiting for his wife to set off firecrackers when she got home.

"Our dad is really fast."

"You're kidding. Calculate how much money you spent. The three of them are worried about getting less goods and making less money. Can they not be in a hurry?" If it hadn't been for a reason, there is no need to doubt that his father would have been eager to take an exam at the house. On the day the case was announced, he and his wife were dragged back to the village.

"So, I have to go back with you, otherwise when the work starts, not only the things for extracting flower juice and concoction, but also the oil extraction equipment will be difficult to rebuild.

It's just that the work has not officially started yet, and it's not known where the work has gone on in the manor behind it, so I have to see it in person.

It’s not that I don’t believe in your ability. It’s inconvenient for you to climb up and down there. It’s different for me. It doesn’t matter if the old man is shirtless.

Another reason is that for the drawings I drew myself, it is easier to go to the scene to see which ones are not in line with reality, and I have a good idea of ​​how to adjust them appropriately. "

After all, don’t you just want to go back together? Zhou Banxia glanced at him speechlessly, "Don't you still have to attend classes here, so it won't delay your studies?"

"No. I'm different from Dajiang. He has to attend more lectures. Now I just need to read more books, complete my homework on time, wait for my teacher's comments and corrections, figure it out on my own, and then get back together and listen to my teacher's guidance. At least before the college exam. , I don’t have to go to class every day.

I'm not fooling you. Really, my husband, it seemed like Dajiang and I were attending lectures together during these days. In fact, he only talked to me about court matters from time to time.

The purpose is to enable me to have a deeper understanding of the situation in the court and to have a clearer understanding of the direction of the court. This will undoubtedly be of great benefit to me in writing policy papers.

In the eyes of my husband, Dajiang and I have different starting points. If he didn’t look at me, he would now ask me to read the Art of War and Strategy. After the academy examination, he would ask me to practice the Six Arts of a Gentleman?

This showed that with my current level of writing articles, my ranking in the college examination would not be much lower, and it gave me guidance for the provincial examination.

However, I told my husband that I will not participate in the provincial examination in August this year. I said that I wanted to calm down and prepare well for two or three years, and try to pass the provincial examination in one go.

You don't know how happy he was to hear what I said this morning. He was probably worried that I was too proud of my exam success. He kept saying "good" and praised me for being like him and being stable. "

I'll give it to you!

Seeing Gu Wenxuan raised his chin and blinked, Zhou Banxia couldn't help but chuckle, "Then you also mentioned that you want to go back with me for a few days before coming back here?"

"clever!"

"What didn't he say?"

"What can you say?" Gu Wenxuan shook his head and smiled, "You think he is a pedantic old man after he has been able to survive until now? Besides, have you forgotten that she is his only niece?
I heard that I was worried that it would be inconvenient for you to go back to the village alone to handle the workshop. I also knew that as long as I completed my homework on time and did not deteriorate in my studies, he would not refuse. "

This is true.

Her uncle could rely on his own ability to redress injustice, so he naturally needed financial support. He was quite capable in financial management, so how could he be so pedantic that he would dislike her opening a workshop.

Not only did he not dislike it, but he also pointed her out to avoid being designated as a merchant now. He was also worried that she would not be able to manage the house, so he often asked her aunt and sister-in-law to take her to host the wedding ceremony.

"You think I'm so lucky, will I be extremely happy and sad again? It seems like half a year has passed since we got married, and I feel a little panic when I think about it. What should I do -"

Gu Wenxuan's heart skipped a beat, "Stop! Don't think so wildly. You don't know anything about anything. One moment and another moment, you are God's daughter now!"

I also feel that you are God’s own son, and He has already fed you.

"Famous lucky star, didn't Aunt Mei say that she would pledge money to you, and she already sent it. Besides, besides, take a look, take a look at what's written in this letter?

Tsk, if you can get her Xiaoda family, then a dog will meddle in other people's business like a mouse! How lucky are you that you don't end up with these messy and annoying relatives! "
