Crossing Over I Became a Married Peasant Woman
Chapter 246 Questioning
The latest website: Pei Xiu finished breakfast the next day, and before Zhou Cheng went out, he summoned Ding Bo to talk to Zhuzi.
After they bowed and saluted, Ding Bo said honestly: "I'm afraid the heavy snow will block the mountain, so we can go faster. When the security guard arrived in Linxian, they immediately divided four people to send us to Canghe County. He also often helps us deliver letters to and from Canghe County, so he knows the way."
After a pause, he added: "When the escort led us to the entrance of Xishan Village, some villagers came up to ask if we were here to deliver letters to Lao Zhou's house again? Then the villagers ran away, yelling at Lao Zhou. head."
Of course, Ding Bo gave them a strange look. After he entered the village, he also knew that Old Zhou Tou was Lord Zhou's father.
Zhou Cheng nodded, "Well, you continue."
"We met halfway through, Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou who came in a hurry. After they brought us home, they learned that it was the lady who asked me to bring back the New Year's gift, and they were overjoyed to see the two-car New Year's gift. They followed along the way. The villagers also spoke kind words to the old man and the others, as well as the uncle Zhou and his family on Tuesday who came to hear the wind."
"Did they say anything?" Pei Xiu couldn't help asking.
"Everyone praised that the adults are promising, and they didn't forget their parents, and they came back with so many years' gifts. The old man and the old lady also seemed very satisfied. They laughed hard and kept saying good things about you to the villagers. Everyone enthusiastically surrounded the scooter, watching Uncle Zhou help us unload the goods on Tuesday, and we couldn't drive away."
"After the villagers left, did they say anything to you?" Pei Xiu didn't believe the old lady and they didn't ask for anything.
Ding Boyi hesitated for a moment and said, "The old lady asked the adults to arrange work for the young master Zhou Jian of Uncle Zhou's family, and the two young masters of Ye Zhou's family. He said that the young master Zhou Kang guarding the city gate is very good, relaxed and comfortable. Having monthly money is much better than farming, so let the adults help arrange other people, fight tiger brothers, fight father and son soldiers, brothers always help each other. And..."
Before Pei Xiu could ask, Zhou Chengcheng frowned. How big of an official did the old lady think he was? You can stretch your hands so long, and you can still arrange work in Canghe County?
It has always been the county magistrate who is worse than the current one, not to mention that no one else can go back. Canghe County has a new magistrate, and he doesn't know who it is. If it is still the original county magistrate, maybe it is still possible. The old lady looked up at him.
He asked, "What else did the old lady say?"
Zhuzi listened to Ding Bo's hesitating appearance,
I couldn't be in a hurry, so I hurriedly said: "The old lady asked the madam to arrange a good marriage for Miss Zhou Yu, who has returned. She asked you to take care of Miss Zhou Yu, she is pitiful. She also told Madam, don't buy this and that with a lot of money, it's better to give her money directly..."
Ding Bo poked at the pillar, and the pillar also felt a little suspicious of provocation, and immediately shut up.
Pei Xiu also knew that the old lady was accustomed to being frugal. In front of people, she would definitely think that they had given her a face and she was proud of her beauty. Afterwards, she felt that it was a waste of money. It would be better to give money than to buy a bunch of things to send back.
This is also a common problem of modern mother-in-law. She doesn't care very much, and others can't see it when she gives money. Maybe he will feel that Zhou Cheng is not filial.
She also did this to block the crowd of Youyou. In order to have a clean life, she didn't mind losing a little money.
In the future, not only for the New Year, but also for the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, they have to send someone a boxing ceremony to show their filial piety.
The parents were old and couldn't bear the fatigue of traveling and could not come to the city to enjoy their happiness, but the couple did not forget to show their filial piety.
"It's okay, I know the old lady's behavior, not only the elderly, but also the villagers are used to frugality. Didn't we all do this before? It's not in the way. All the consumables that can be used in daily life are sent. Li also has face. She is just talking about it." Seeing that Zhou Cheng wanted to say something, Pei Xiu spoke to him first.
She can also understand that this is not a big problem.
Seeing that she had said so, Zhou Cheng didn't say much. He just asked Ding Bo and the others, "How did you respond? Did they ask you about the government?"
"We said that we would convey the old lady's meaning to the adults. The old lady also asked about things in the mansion, how much the master's monthly salary was, and how many servants there were in the mansion. While talking, Ding Bo glanced at Pei Xiu and Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng also looked at her in confusion, "What did you explain?"
"Isn't it according to the content of the previous letter to the family? It is said that the land and money in Dong'an City are very small. We have no house or land, so we can only rent a house to live in. We also bought five servants and housekeepers because of the need to communicate with officials and officials. The salary is only I don't know, is there any problem? I was also afraid of revealing my secrets, so I explained it." She explained that she was also trying to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Zhou Cheng also nodded understandingly and didn't say much. The content of the previous family letter was also written with his approval.
"Well, I see, it's hard work for you. It's alright if everything is fine in your hometown. You can go down and rest. You don't have to be on errands today."
"Thank you, ma'am."
"Now you can feel at ease. The old lady's request will be ignored for now. We don't have this connection, and we can't reach it." The old lady's several requests were probably made by Sister Zhou on Tuesday.
It's not too much to say, to put it simply, they can't arrange it when they're not in their hometown.
"Well, I know, I'll leave the house to you to watch. I'm going to go to the government office."
Pei Xiu didn't want to go out after she sent it to the door of the room, and she planned to squint for a while when she returned to the kang.
As soon as I lay down, I thought that I also need to prepare some New Year's goods at home, and I always have to show off the lights during the New Year. And there are many children at home, and they may like to eat snacks during the day.
After Ding Bo has a good rest and resumes his work tomorrow, let him go shopping for some New Year's goods.
As she thought about it, she was thinking about the holiday in a few days, and the New Year's ceremony from Master Qiu had to be prepared.
This time she couldn't lie down anymore, she got up in a hurry and took out the booklet of the gifts from the palace before, and compared it with the things in her house, and found that they were almost the same.
The palace rewards are all good things, and they can pick some precious ones to give away, which are decent and not wasted.
Listening to Zhou Cheng's meaning, at the end of each year, the palace will also send New Year gifts to officials.
She really felt that the reward was much faster than the salary, and with his salary, he couldn't buy a few valuables.
It is very difficult to take gifts, no wonder so many small officials have to sell their properties.
