The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Zhou's family, Zhu Lan looked at the promotional newspapers of this month, and now they can subscribe to the newspapers for money. At the beginning of each month, they will be printed according to the number of subscriptions.

The content of the propaganda newspapers has become more and more abundant, including the policies of the imperial court, propaganda articles, and some cases of the Ministry of Justice.

Of course, those who can subscribe are still wealthy families. People are reluctant to spend money to subscribe, and they will still read news in front of the city gate or city wall.

Zhulan flipped through the propaganda newspaper, which had eight or nine pages bound. She didn't care about the article, and she also understood the policies of the imperial court. Instead, she liked to read the section on case reports.

When Xuehan came in, she saw her mother looking seriously, "Mother."

Zhulan raised her head, "It's so cold, why are you back?"

"I'll bring you some fruit."

"Your filial piety knows that you don't have to come back in person in the cold weather."

Her daughter was weak after giving birth, and she felt sorry for her.

Xuehan stood and turned twice, "Look at how thick I am."

Zhulan held her daughter's hand, "It's cold and cold."

Xuehan couldn't help it. Now her hands and feet are cold, the imperial doctor has seen that she needs to take good care of her, "Mother, why did you look so focused just now?"

"I read the newspaper. It reported the case of the Ministry of Justice."

Xuehan sat down and said, "I don't like to read it. It would be better if there were some stories on it. The articles above are a headache to read."

Zhulan also doesn't like to read articles in classical Chinese. She has been in ancient times for so many years, but she still can't read it. She can still read the travel stories written by her son-in-law. This year, her son-in-law has not submitted an article in Beijing, and the above article is even more boring. .

Zhulan said: "If you want to read the story, it will take a few years."

Don't think about it now. This is a propaganda newspaper of the imperial court. Articles published must be reviewed in the first instance before they dare to be published. However, with the demand and development, various newspapers will appear one after another in the future.

In Zhangzhou, Yushuang accompanied her mother to the street, "Mother, this is the weaving shop I told you about."

Zhao Shi looked at the flower baskets that were placed, and his eyes lit up, "The craftsmanship is indeed exquisite."

Yushuang helped her mother into the shop, "This is also a feature of our county."

There are too many people who can weave in each state. They do not use bamboo to weave, and the output is not high. They have never been famous. Because there are not many poor merchants, the weaving shops are barely enough to make ends meet.

Zhao looked around in the expectant gaze of the shopkeeper, frowning slightly, "Only these types?"

The shopkeeper, "Yes, there are only these types."

Zhao's eyes were disappointed. He was accustomed to seeing the objects of the weaving shop in the capital. The styles here were too simple.

Seeing that the shopkeeper's eyes were dim, Yu Shuang also sighed. There are all kinds of good things in the capital. The mother has high eyesight and asked, "We provide patterns, can we make them to order?"

The shopkeeper raised his head in surprise, "Yes, yes, the masters of our shop are all old craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation, as long as there are patterns, they can be made up."

Zhao wanted to buy some special products back to Beijing. There are too many good things at home. She wants to buy some special special products, but the county is too poor and there are not many shops.

"some."

Mr. Zhao picked up the brush and drew a few strokes. After thinking about it, he added a few more strokes, "Can you make a vase like this?"

The shopkeeper carefully picked up the paper and said cautiously, "Younger, go ask the master."

The shopkeeper came back quickly, with a happy face, "Yes."

The smile on Zhao's face increased a little, and he took the paper, "I'll send you the drawings when I get back."

What she painted will not be left, just let her son-in-law paint it.

The shopkeeper's excitement, they all know the wife of the county magistrate, and they all say that the county magistrate is from the capital, and the Yue family is a high-ranking official in the capital. If this order is successful, someone will definitely buy it.

Zhao left the shop, "Let's go back too."

Yushuang, "There are too few shops in the county, so there will be more shops in the county."

Mr. Zhao nodded, looked at the people begging on the street, and sighed, they couldn't save everyone, the husband bought Zhuangzi in Zhangzhou, and recently he has taken many people to Zhuangzi, and they can't help more.

In the evening in the capital, Zhou Shuren came back to talk about the affairs of the court, but Zhulan was not in high spirits, "I have heard about it."

Zhou Shuren, "The emperor didn't rush to get married, I'll take a look at Yu's family."

Zhulan pouted, "That's the emperor's confidence that the marriage will be successful."

"Well, I looked at Lord Yu a few more times today, and Lord Yu didn't know about it."

Zhulan raised her eyebrows, "Oh, I'm not happy with us."

Zhou Shuren, "Your Majesty thinks this is a good marriage. Although it is indeed a good marriage, the Emperor said, Yuyi will be at home in the future, and the Yu family will not dare to bully her."

Zhulan's expression improved a little, "Then don't rush to get married."

Zhou Shuren, "Yes."

Seeing Shuren picking up the propaganda paper, Zhulan said, "Didn't you read it in the household department?"

"I'm a little busy today and don't have time to watch."

Zhulan pointed to the article, "There are several articles about fish cakes in this anticipated propaganda newspaper, and one article mentions food donation, but the Wen family is not mentioned to take the lead in donating food."

Zhou Shuren said, "The emperor will not erase the Wen family's credit for taking the lead in donating food. This should be inspired by the Wen family."

The emperor knew that he couldn't hide it, so he wouldn't go to great lengths to erase the credit and appear to be stingy and unreasonable.

On the contrary, it was the Wen family. The Wen family really wanted a good reputation, but they dared not ask the people of the world to thank them.

Zhulan also thought so, "The Wen family has become smarter."

"Yeah, the Wen family just had a conflict with our family. Wen Xu's drunkenness lost the Wen family's face, and the next day Japan should have become a laughing stock. As a result, the Wen family raised food donations early, and Wen Xu's drunkenness became a trivial matter. "

Zhulan played with the hairpin in her hand, "The second room of the Wen family has been abolished, the third room has been weakened, the big family is the dominant one, and the fourth son of Wen has the right to speak."

"You see the Wen family clearly."

"Who made our family and the Wen family stand against each other, I naturally want to do more research."

Zhou Shuren chuckled lightly, continued to read the propaganda newspaper, and soon finished reading it, sighing: "It's still inconvenient for transportation. If it's convenient to have more issues per month, hey, the news is too slow."

Zhulan asked curiously, "The newspapers are selling well, they must have made a lot of money."

Zhou Shuren shook his head~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The investment is very high. In some places, newspapers are delivered for free. The investment in manpower and material resources is large, and no money is made. "

"Actually, the prefectures can also get some local newspapers, as long as the capital is controlled."

"It's impossible for a year or two, and now the states are worried about food."

Zhulan stood up, "I'm going to wash first."

"Ok."

The next day, because the New Year was approaching, the emperor wanted the people to have a good New Year, and the people would have hope when the festival was over. The emperor had already bought cloth, meat, etc.

Zhou Shuren said in his heart that the last time the emperor donated food, the emperor also donated food from Huangzhuang, and this time he used the private treasury to buy a large amount of materials, the New Year's gift, and the time to gain popularity.

He didn't know when the emperor bought a large amount of materials.

This batch of supplies will be distributed to the poorest prefectures and counties first, and the emperor has already arranged them.
