The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 177 Lesson

Xuehan's heart sank. The last time I visited the county government, my mother told her to be on guard against people at all times. She knew that people have two sides, good and bad. Different levels have different positions and different understandings of human life. , the life of the people at the bottom is also worthless, "loot all Wang Ru's belongings, and only leave some enough to send letters."

Zhulan was satisfied again, and continued to ask, "Wang Xin and Wang Rong also have a lot of money in their hands, what should I do?"

Xuehan was silent for a few seconds, "All looted away."

Zhulan smiled, "If I were Mr. Shi, I would keep the money from these two."

Xuehan didn't understand, "Mother, why?"

Zhu Lan took a sip of her tea, "Because the three of them are living together now, but Wang Ru obviously treats the two sisters as maids, and Wang Ru's reputation for implicating the two sisters, the conflict between the three of them is already serious, leaving Wang Xin alone And Wang Rong's money can directly warn Wang Ru to take back how much she gave her, and secondly catalyze the conflict between the three of them, threatening Wang Rong and Wang Xin that the money will be gone at any time. The only way is to be obedient, so as to bribe them to monitor Wang Ru. "

Anyway, if she was Shi Qing, she would do this, and Shi Qing was the winner of the house fight, so she wouldn't be worse than her.

Xuehan hissed, she always thought that the physical injury is the most ruthless, after listening to the mother's words, the heart attack is the most ruthless, this lesson has been taught.

In the evening, Zhou Shuren came back from the county. After dinner, he went back to the house and said to Zhulan: "The day after tomorrow, Mrs. Dong will bring Miss Dong to visit. You are looking at cleaning up the house. If you need to prepare some food in advance, please write me a list." , I will bring it back from the county tomorrow."

Zhulan was surprised, "Why did they come?"

It's not the same. They are family members of officials. Many counties don't invite people to go. It's the first time for the two of them to visit. Even if it's a return visit, it's been half a month. Isn't it a bit late?

On the way back, Zhou Shuren kept thinking about the meaning of the county magistrate, and he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, "The eldest daughter of the Dong family became a widow, and her first marriage was a high-ranking marriage. Life is not good. If her husband died, life would be even more difficult. , In order to get away from her husband’s family, the Dong family paid a lot of benefits. The Dong family can pay benefits for the married daughter. The Dong family’s character is good. I guess after the elder daughter’s lesson, the Dong family wants to find a son-in-law who can handle it.”

Zhulan, "You have inquired about the Dong family's affairs clearly enough."

Zhou Shuren said: "These are not secrets. I didn't inquire about them before. After I went to the county last time, I inquired about what I should inquire about."

Zhulan asked, "The Dong family has also inquired about our family clearly. Tell me, which son of our family does Mr. Dong have a crush on?"

"That's why Mrs. Dong has to come and see for herself. As for which one you like, you'll know when the time comes."

Zhulan said faintly: "I still thought about getting married in two years, but now it seems impossible."

Zhou Shuren was delighted, "Don't think too much about our son, Chang Lian is selfish and tactful, Chang Zhi is not good at general affairs, maybe the little girl will look down on anyone!"

Zhulan thought about it too, "Dong Chuchu is a little girl, the Dong family must love her very much, her opinion is very important."

Especially after learning the lessons of the eldest daughter.

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren didn't object to this matter, and they thought about it differently. They also considered Xuehan in the same way at the beginning. It's all parents' understanding. Of course, there are reasons why resistance is useless. The difference in status lies.

Zhulan was thinking about what to cook, and took Zhou Shuren's pen to write the list. Their family did not have the ability of Dong's family to buy rare ingredients. What she could prepare was what Li's could do. She never thought of slapping her face to pretend to be fat. It's too deliberate, don't backfire and leave a bad impression.

Zhulan finished writing and handed it to Zhou Shuren, "You go to the county tomorrow to buy some seasonings and pastries, yes, and don't forget the wine, there is no good wine at home, and all seasonings are on the list."

Zhou Shuren glanced, "Why don't you buy meat?"

Zhulan shook her head, "Tomorrow the butcher's house will slaughter a new pig, I will ask Mrs. Li to guard it early in the morning, and just buy the ones that are prepared in advance.

There are also fishers in the fish village, and they can be bought on the spot the day after tomorrow, without having to go to the county to buy them. "

Zhou Shuren folded the list, "You just need to know it in your heart."

Zhulan said again: "You don't need to ask for leave for the two sons the day after tomorrow, that would be too deliberate."

Zhou Shuren, "No need to ask for leave."

Zhulan put on her shoes and went to the ground, "I'll go to Mrs. Li and tell her what to buy next."

"Yep."

Zhulan found Mrs. Li in the kitchen, "Where is the water?"

Mrs. Li put down the fire stick, "It's summer, the children are uncomfortably hot, and they feel comfortable after taking a bath frequently, mother, what do you want me to do?"

Zhulan felt that she had neglected it. The eldest grandson is not too young, and the second grandson is also growing up. The house of the elders is too small, and Yushuang is also growing up. Unfortunately, the Zhou family has no room. I will think about how to arrange for the grandson. them.

Zhulan signaled Li Shi to sit down first, and Li Shi looked at her mother-in-law's face very kindly and relieved.

Zhulan said: "Tomorrow a butcher kills a pig, you go and buy two catties of pork belly, two pork knuckles, half a pork liver, and four pig's trotters to marinate."

Mrs. Li was surprised, "Mother, do you want a treat at home?"

Zhulan nodded, "Well, after you buy the meat, you can go to Orion's house and buy two wild rabbits."

Mrs. Li wrote it all down, "Mother, when will the guest come tomorrow?"

"The guest will come the day after tomorrow, and the water is boiling. I'll go back first as you are busy."

Mrs. Li hastily turned off the fire, and later wanted to ask Mother who to invite to dinner, but Mother had already left, wondering who would be the guest, but after thinking about it, she couldn't guess who it was.

Zhulan went back to the house, "The grandchildren are not young anymore, it's time to move out of their parents' house, you see Yushuang moved out to live with Xuehan, Mingyun lived with Rongchuan, Mingteng will move out next year How about this arrangement?"
