The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Zhulan said, "It's already been prepared."

Zhou Shuren waited for Ming and Qing to come over before going to see the results together.

Mrs Wu Li also packed up the kitchen and hurried home. She was going to wait for the messenger at home.

About an hour later, someone from Zhulan's family came to announce the good news, "Congratulations, Zhou Shuren Academy will try one."

Zhulan was happy for Zhou Shuren, so she didn't waste Zhou Shuren thinking about the examiner's preferences. She took out her purse and gave it to the person who announced the good news.

Two purses each with a tael of broken silver, a big red envelope.

When Zhulan saw the announcement of the good news, she wanted to hurriedly ask, "There are two people in our family who are taking the exam. How are Zhou Mingqing's grades?"

The good news looked at each other, but they really didn't pay attention, just thinking about the first errand, "Someone should deliver the letter in a while, madam, wait patiently."

Zhulan sent off the good news person, and then set off firecrackers. No matter whether it is modern or ancient, Zhulan is quite afraid of firecrackers.

The firecrackers were set off at the door, and the neighbors knew it. However, because Zhou Shuren was so old, even if he was admitted as a scholar, the neighbors still thought that there was not much value in communication, and there were no people who came to congratulate him.

Zhulan didn't care either, and waited patiently to see if anyone would come to announce the good news. The patriarch's family only had the best reading in Ming and Qing Dynasties, but they had taken the exam a few times. The patriarch's family was full of hope this time. can pass.

Another half an hour passed, and finally the person who announced the good news arrived. Zhulan knew the results of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This year, the hospital took the top 30, ten less than in previous years, and almost missed the 29th in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. After the good news, Zhu Lan felt at ease.

Just as he was about to turn around and enter the yard, a guy came over, "Zhou Bisheng asked Xiao to send a letter, and he won't be back this noon, so the wife doesn't have to wait."

Zhulan counted twenty pennies to the man, "It's been a long trip, this is a big happy event at home, so I'll grab a glass of hot wine."

The man took it with both hands, "Mrs. Xie, the little one is also happy."

When Zhulan returned to the yard, Wu Ting came to run errands, "Aunt Zhou, we have prepared drinks for the evening at home. Please invite Uncle Zhou and Auntie over to have a drink."

Zhulan hurriedly asked, "How many places did your eldest brother get in the exam?"

Wu Ting felt that it was a pity that his eldest brother didn't become a junior, but it was a great event to pass the Xiucai exam, "The second place is not as good as Uncle Zhou. I will definitely ask Uncle Zhou for more advice in the future."

Zhulan said modestly, "Your brother is very powerful."

Wu Ting nodded in agreement, "Aunt Zhou, I'll go back first."

"Okay, our family will be here tonight."

Wu Ting ran away happily, the family had spare money, and his brother became a scholar. The days will get better and better.

Zhou Shuren came back in the afternoon, the smell of alcohol all over his body, Zhu Lan frowned, "Why are you drinking so much alcohol today?"

Zhou Shuren was half-drunk, "I didn't expect that I would be the first in the exam, but I was drinking so hard. If I hadn't pretended to be drunk, I wouldn't have been able to escape."

Zhulan twisted the veil and wiped Zhou Shuren's face, feeling distressed, "They are all arrogant."

Zhou Shuren sobered up and said, "There are many children from aristocratic families in this exam. One of me is old and from a rural area, so I'm naturally unconvinced. These people won't make it difficult for you in the future if they drink too much alcohol."

Zhulan sighed, the ancient class was too obvious, she couldn't help wrapping her arms around Zhou Shuren's neck, "This family has worked hard for you."

Zhou Shuren is used to it in modern times. He doesn't feel suffocated. No matter what class he is in, some suffocation is unavoidable. Even if he becomes a high-ranking official in the future, he will still suffer from suffocation. However, he enjoys Zhulan's comfort very much. !

Zhulan let go of her hands and sat beside her, supported Zhou Shuren's head on her lap, and slowly massaged Zhou Shuren's head.

Zhulan said: "Go to Wu's house for dinner in the evening, you should drink less, this body is not too young, don't rely on the amount of alcohol to think it's okay."

"Don't worry, I know in my heart, I will accompany you to live a long life!"

The corners of Zhulan's mouth were upturned, "Speaking has to be counted. If I am ten years older, I must live longer."

Zhou Shuren opened his eyes, his eyes full of tenderness, "Well, I got the news today that the new dynasty has been established for 12 years, and the children's exams are held every year. Today, the disclosure given by Xuezheng will be changed from next year to twice every three years. "

"It has nothing to do with you, but it has to do with the children. If Chang Lian and Chang Zhi fail next year, they will have to wait another year."

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Yes, so our plans have to change."

Zhulan asked again, "How many people in our county have passed the examination for talents?"
