Sometimes Jiang Changxi really wants to ask, what are your plans if your mother-in-law really gets married again.
But how do you ask this question? For Zhou Lan, this is too embarrassing, but this matter will have to be faced sooner or later, and it is really not something that can be evaded.
Jiang Changxi saw that her mother-in-law had a soft temper, and she was afraid that she would get married sooner or later.
If Jiang Changxi came up with this result based on the analysis of people's temperament, then Zhou Lan should know something, so his mood is more complicated than Jiang Changxi's, not to mention that she is his own mother.
It took Zhou Lan a long time to speak: "Uncle will take good care of my mother, don't worry."
After saying that, he lowered his head and continued reading. Looking at his appearance, he was afraid that he would have to continue working hard.
For the first time, when Jiang Changxi was still around, Zhou Lan put his mind into books.
It can be seen how much emotional fluctuations mother-in-law Lin brought to Zhou Lan.
Jiang Changxi came out quietly and stood by the door looking at the lights in the room for a long time.
Zhou Lan was in the room, just in the same posture, and didn't turn the pages of the book for a long time. It can be seen that his mood was still affected.
After all, she is her own mother, so how can she not miss her? What's more, Zhou Lan felt a little uncomfortable when talking about Lin's problem in front of his young daughter-in-law.
Dafu: "Grandma, please go back to the house, the night is getting cold."
Jiang Changxi: "I'll go to Tong Shunfeng tomorrow. Forget it, I'd better go to Tong Suifeng or the housekeeper to find out. The Zhou family is Madam's side. Is there anything we don't know about?"
Otherwise, Zhou Lan wouldn't be so entangled in taking care of Lin.
It’s just a matter of marrying someone or not. Communication between mother and son should not be so difficult.
After getting along with Zhou Lan for a long time, I can see that this is not a pedantic, foolish and filial person. If he is willing to protect the Lin family, he can do it even if his grandparents are here.
Dafu: "What should I inquire about?"
Jiang Changxi glanced at Dafu.
Dafu lowered his head and said, "I will let someone else take care of it." If you can tell me, you don't have to be vague. Since the grandma can't explain clearly, you have to ask about things that are difficult to ask.
Well, the tacit understanding between master and servant cannot be communicated through words.
The more depressed Zhou Lan became, the more he forced himself to study.
The reason is very simple. The root of depression lies in identity and ability. Only by improving yourself and solving your own troubles within the scope of your abilities can you not be so depressed in the future. If you have a temper, you don't know who to get angry at.
Despite the turmoil in Zhuangzi's business, Zhou Lan knew very well that it was his daughter-in-law who supported the family business.
As a husband, what he should do is now carried out by his husband.
So what right does he have to be here to mourn the autumn and regret the spring? What he wants to do cannot be done without status or fame.
Zhou Lan took a deep breath, wet the silk handkerchief with tea, wiped his eyes and continued reading. He read most of the night.
Jiang Changle didn't even get up to pee, nor did he wet the bed.
Zhou Lanxin said that my brother-in-law has grown up and no longer wets the bed.
The good news came over early the next morning, congratulations to Mr. Zhou for making it to the county examination.
Jiang Chang happily gave red envelopes to people. His clan members also came to congratulate him, and even Mr. Jiang's friends came over in twos and threes to congratulate him.
Jiang Changxi specially asked Dafu to go to the clan and invite his uncle and clan aunt to come over and help entertain the guests.
For the people of the Zhou clan, this is quite high.
Grandma Zhou, who will be a child in the future, can still look down on these clan members and ask them to help greet the guests. Grandma Zhou takes her clan members seriously.
Second Brother-in-law Jiang and Second Lady Jiang also came over early in the morning to help entertain the guests. Second Brother-in-law Jiang was in a very excited mood. He was worthy of being Mr. Wenzhai, and his friends around him were all great scholars.
With an excited heart and trembling hands, I almost rushed over with no joy. I finally managed to steady myself and accompany my brother-in-law to entertain these distinguished gentlemen as a half-host.
To talk about this banquet, I have to praise the women at home for how well they arranged it.
Mr. Wenzhai never thought that so many people would come today.
But looking at the banquet, it turned out to be quite well prepared, and there was no panic or rush among the people in the house.
Moreover, the tribesmen, neighbors, and friends like him were actually seated separately. You could vaguely see the seats of people with different identities.
Everyone looked very satisfied.
Mr. Wenzhai entertained these friends. The tribesmen over there were very happy.
Naturally, my friends looked down upon a little boy, so they laughed and said, "You disciple, why are you so eager to end up?"
Mr. Wenzhai: "You guys came here to ask for a drink, so why don't you say congratulations?" His attitude was too arrogant. He came eagerly to laugh at himself, right?
Friends laughed and said, "Congratulations. When your disciple wins the Jinshi, it will not be too late for us to congratulate him."
So this group of people really come here to eat and drink.
Looking at each of them, those who drank and those who ate meat, Mr. Wenzhai said to himself: "It's not like that. You are here specifically to beg for drinks..."
It actually means drinking literally?
The friend laughed and said, "Hey, you are really a good disciple. Although we are wild and unruly, we can't be shameless and always bother us. Isn't this a rare opportunity?"
Mr. Wenzhai laughed. It was hard for them to think so much just for a bite to eat.
The gentleman who was sitting in the clan said: "You are leading disciples in Zhuangzi and reading books from sages. Of course you don't know that the roast chicken and duck served by Grandma Zhou outside at Zhuangzi are not available in the county town."
The old gentleman really didn’t know: “Where do I need to buy it?”
Friends: "Baoding Mansion. Even the biggest restaurants don't have this stuff, and they don't sell it, they only give it away. It only has high-quality banquets. Not even the most respectable people can eat it."
Dear scholars: "We are greedy, so we can't always come and bother you."
The master seems to know what his disciple’s propaganda is all about. Things are rare and valuable.
Can you often eat roast chicken and duck at Zhuangzi?
It is said that they are only given away and not sold, but the roast chicken and duck on the banquets of the wealthy families are all given away? They are not bought, right?
However, with such a publicity effect, it makes this thing particularly valuable. So in terms of price, who would object to spending extra money.
Sir, you have figured it out, so let’s talk about it. I have to say that female disciples have a right way to make money.
Then look at the table of shopkeepers serving alone in the flower hall over there, it’s no wonder.
The well-connected gentleman around me also had this vision, so he pointed to a corner of the flower hall in the distance: "Did you see that there are tables over there with all the famous shopkeepers in Baoding Prefecture? You are a very capable disciple."
The gentleman who was sitting in the clan said: "The disciple is really a farmer and a scholar, but the bosses have to hang around him. What can I do? What can I do?"
He is also a teacher, and his heart to protect his disciples is just as good as that of Mr. Wenzhai.
