Chapter 1310 Sweet pastry

Zhao Ming chuckled, puffed up his chest and said proudly: "My strength has also increased, sister, I can now pull a five-stone bow."

Zhao Hanzhang praised: "As expected of my tiger general, he did a great job."

Although Zhao Erlang came back, Zhao Hanzhang only paused for a while and asked him to sit aside and listen to their discussion.

This was a small court meeting. In addition to Fu Tinghan, officials from the six ministries and important officials from Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province were all present.

The main topics discussed are the New Year's encouragement of classes and farming and agricultural support measures; the issues of food, grass, military pay and retirement comfort for various armies; and the issue of ownership of manufacturing in the inner court and manufacturing in China.

Inner court manufacturing is the industry that Zhao Hanzhang put in his own name. There is nothing to discuss about this part, it is basically a one-word statement.

However, because most of the inner court manufacturing uses Fu Tinghan’s technical recipes, the Ministry of Industry is trying to intervene in the inner court management;

Not to mention Made in China, it is equivalent to a state-owned enterprise. Salt, iron, gold, copper and other industries are made by the state and cannot be participated by private individuals.

It is being discussed now because both the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry believe that these matters should be under their control.

To put it bluntly, today’s parliament is all about money.

Divide the money already in the treasury and confirm the rights of major industries and workshops.

Zhao Erlang was still listening with interest when he sat down at first, but after he found that his mind couldn't keep up with their argument, he couldn't help but drift away.

The pastries in front of me look a bit delicious...

have eaten!

Zhao Erlang stretched out his hand and picked up a piece, then sat and ate it quietly like a little hamster. Zhao Ming caught a glimpse and silently handed over the plate of snacks in front of him.

Zhao Erlang was flattered and quickly took it. He was so popular with his elders that he didn't expect that Zhao Ming would give him snacks.

He grinned at him, and Zhao Ming looked away, sighing in his heart. He was so stupid. It seemed that Zhao Hanzhang was all he wanted.

Zhao Erlang felt a little sleepy after eating two plates of snacks. He moved uneasily, but still did not make a sound, but tried to keep his eyes wide open, just like when he was a child going to school.

But his eyelids were still getting heavier and heavier, and suddenly a voice said: "This is the end of today's discussion, dear friends, please follow the agreed plan."

Zhao Erlang sat up straight after nodding his head and woke up in the blink of an eye. When he saw Ji Yuan and others standing up to salute, he quickly stood up and followed them in bowing and saluting.

After Ji Yuan and others left, Zhao Hanzhang asked him, "How did you sleep?"

Zhao Erlang just stared at his toes and said nothing.

Zhao Hanzhang patted his head and said, "Let's go and take you to see my mother-in-law. I originally wanted you to listen and get in touch with some affairs of the Ministry of War."

Now it seems that these matters should be left to Xie Shi, and Zhao Erlang should still concentrate on learning the art of war and martial arts.

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed when she suddenly saw her son coming back. She held his hand very rarely and said, "It's so uncomfortable to be so dusty. Go take a shower and change clothes. I'll ask the kitchen to make your favorite mutton soup."

Zhao Erlang shook his head: "Auntie, I don't want to eat mutton soup now, I want to eat vegetables and dumplings."

The border is bitterly cold, and vegetables are more rare and precious than meat.

Because he raises a large number of sheep there, and it is Xiliang after leaving the customs, there is no shortage of sheep, but there is a shortage of vegetables, which he has basically been unable to eat since late winter.

Wang quickly asked: "Didn't you stock up on cabbage?"

Zhao Erlang: "I stocked up, but I ate them all and a few of them were broken."

Mrs. Wang then asked him how many kilograms he had stored and how he had stored them.

Zhao Erlang didn't know anything about it.

Mrs. Wang then said, "Okay, you go take a bath and I'll have someone make you food."

She did not let Zhao Erlang go to Deqing Hall, but gave him a guest room in the side hall and let him rest there.

Zhao Hanzhang is his sister, so of course he can stay in the harem.

As soon as he left, Mrs. Wang grabbed Zhao Hanzhang and said, "Sanniang, you have also seen that Erlang has no wife, and he doesn't even know how to stock up on vegetables. He lives in a haze."

Zhao Hanzhang: "It's not that he lacks a wife, but that he lacks a manager."

Mrs. Wang patted her and said angrily: "Managers need to be managed. If there is no boss in charge, no matter how good the manager is, without rewards or restrictions, he will become slack after three or five months. Look at Erlang's appearance. Someone who can take care of the house?”

Wang said: "At Erlang's age, it's time for him to get married."

Zhao Hanzhang looked distressed, "I know, I'm looking for it too, but I really can't find the right one. The main reason is that Erlang doesn't have someone he clearly likes, so I can't force him."

Mrs. Wang: "Marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's advice. You didn't tell him the specific person. How do you know he doesn't like it?"

Zhao Hanzhang asked her, "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

Wang's spirits perked up and she immediately said, "I really do."

After she became the Queen Mother, she would meet with foreign wives every month. This was originally the responsibility of the Queen, but Fu Tinghan is now too busy to take root in the Ministry of Industry, and his status is not suitable, so Wang Huifeng has been assisting her in this matter. of.

When a group of ladies get together, their favorite thing to talk about is the marriage of their children.

Zhao Erlang is unmarried, so there are not many people who want to be matchmakers for him.

Mrs. Wang clasped her fingers and said, "There are the daughters of the Wang family, Wang Kuang, Xia Houren, Cao Lin, Liu Kun, and the daughter of the Wang family from Taiyuan..."

Wang looked at Zhao Hanzhang's face and whispered: "Someone also mentioned General Beigong's daughter. In addition, many people in the south of the Yangtze River want to marry their daughters to Erlang, even as a side wife."

Zhao Hanzhang: "...Aniang wants to find a side room for Erlang?"

Mrs. Wang shook her head, "Having uneasiness in the back house is a big disaster. If your brother is smart, I won't take care of him. But if he is like this, he can't control the back house. He has to work together with his wife to live a good life, so he can't be allowed to Have the heart to take concubines.”

The Wang family was not very fond of concubines, and the Zhao family had a clean and upright family tradition. Her husband did not have any concubines, not even a couple, and neither did her father-in-law.

Many men in the Zhao family do not have concubines, so she does not like men taking concubines, even if that person is her son.

Therefore, she dislikes those families that hint that their daughters can be concubines. "If the family tradition is not good, the daughter they raise may not be good either."

Zhao Hanzhang: "There are so many candidates, who did I choose?"

Mrs. Wang became entangled and whispered: "Except for General Beigong's daughter, I have seen them all. I like your cousin's cousin the best, but Liu Kun's daughter seems Even better, I don’t know if her identity is suitable..."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Except for my cousin, Wang Kuang's daughter and Xia Houren's daughter, everyone else can do it."

Wang was startled and asked, "Why can't your cousin?"

Zhao Hanzhang: "The fifth server hasn't been released yet, the relationship is too close."

Mrs. Wang: "I only dislike those who are not close enough. Why do you dislike those who are too close? It's a pity that you don't have a biological uncle, and even your closer cousins ​​are dead. I still dislike that the blood relationship is far away."

"Auntie, if two people who are closely related by blood have a child, there is a high chance that the baby will be deformed. My cousin and we are still within the fifth server, so that's not possible."
