In the end, the matter of Zhou Man's genealogy was settled. The completed genealogy was handed over. After everyone paid incense and paid homage, they told the ancestors. Then the village chief took the genealogy home, while others picked up the chickens and ducks on the case.
The sheep went back to Lao Zhou's house to cook.
After the ancestors finished eating, it was naturally their turn to eat.
The old Zhou family borrowed tables and chairs from many other houses. They couldn't fit them in the two yards, so they put them on the road outside the door. Not only the villagers of Qili Village, but also the in-laws of the old Zhou family came.
Liu County Lieutenant, who is temporarily acting as the county magistrate of Luojiang County, also came. Of course, he did not come in vain, and he also brought condolence money.
Zhou Yin was posthumously awarded the title of Prefectural Shepherd, which not only brought glory to Qili Village, but also brought glory to Luojiang County. Although it had a good reputation and no practical benefits, he felt that Mianzhou might have to send officials over later.
Condolences.
So he wanted to erect a monument at the entrance of Qili Village to record Zhou Yin's affairs. However, before coming, Master Zhang reminded him, and then he remembered that the Queen Mother was still there.
Although the sky is high in Luojiang County and the emperor is far away, the big shots in the capital may not know about their activities, but if they are not afraid of ten thousand, they are afraid of what else?
So he suppressed it.
However, the Zhou family has a good relationship with County Magistrate Yang, and they played a major role in pacifying the rebellion of King Yizhou. Now that Magistrate Yang has returned to the capital, the Zhou family may really soar into the sky in the future.
In addition, the Zhou family has made a large financial contribution to Luojiang County in recent years. After many considerations, Liu Xianwei decided that the monument could not be erected for the time being, but the relationship could not be lost.
So he came with his men and condolence money.
For their arrival, Lao Zhou's family welcomed them very much, arranged them and Mr. Bai at the top table, and then started the banquet in a noisy manner.
Aunt Qian took Qian's hand and whispered in the room, "Okay, okay, your suffering is finally over, and you don't have to worry anymore."
Qian smiled and nodded, "I said the same thing, thanks to my eldest brother and sister-in-law for helping us cover up these years."
Otherwise, Manbao's life would not be hidden from his relatives in Qianjiacun.
Aunt Qian laughed and said, "Are we still discussing this between our sisters-in-law? By the way, Man Bao's birthday is coming soon. She is also thirteen, so we should say we are kissing, right?"
Qian laughed and said, "It's okay, but the sixth child is not engaged yet. She is just like a child. I can't rest assured. I'll let her go for a few more years."
"That's right," Aunt Qian also started to worry about her, "Why hasn't your sixth child proposed marriage yet? If you delay any longer, you won't be able to find a wife in the future."
Qian also sighed, "Who says it's not the case, but he is in the capital right now, and I can't talk about him. But his father and I have discussed it, and when he comes back, he will have to say goodbye and marry his wife before leaving.
.”
Aunt Qian became worried, "Da Tou is also in the capital. He is also old."
Datou is her grandson, so she is still very worried. When she thinks of Datou, she thinks of Daya, "By the way, I heard that you are going to marry Daya?"
"It's not someone else's house," Mrs. Qian motioned for her to look outside. "The eldest grandson here is also studying. I've already met him. He has a good personality and good looks, but now he just doesn't match his horoscope."
Aunt Qian's eyebrows lightened up, she bent her eyes happily and said with a smile: "This marriage is a good one, this marriage is a good one."
Isn’t that bad?
The position of mayor is generally reserved for middle-aged and elderly people who are highly respected in the countryside. If they are not included in this list, they are very rich, have a lot of land, and are very powerful in the local area.
The Li Chang family is in a state of limbo.
He has been living here for many years, and now he no longer walks. He relies on people to pull him with an ox cart or push him with a cart, but no one can take his place.
If there is any problem in the village, the village chief is usually approached first. If the village chief cannot solve the problem, the village chief is approached. Generally, except for major life cases where the village chief cannot make the decision, basically all matters can be resolved by the village chief.
Therefore, the power of the district chief is still great. This means that the county magistrate is not as good as the current person in charge, and the district chief happens to be the one in charge.
A few years ago, Lao Zhou would never have dreamed that he would be able to marry the eldest family member.
Qian said: "Everything else about their family is good, except that they have few brothers, two sons, and only three grandsons in total. But they all know everything about it, and his family is considered harmonious. If Da Ya talks about his family, it will be convenient for him to go home."
Don’t tell me, we can still take care of you.”
Aunt Qian nodded, "That's the truth."
Unfortunately, Er Tou and Er Ya, who are also of the same age, are also in the capital. The remaining few are still young and not yet old enough to marry, so the two sisters stopped talking and talked about this year's harvest.
At this time, Bai Shanggang in the capital took out a pony from the carriage stall. He listened to Man Bao and led the horse back along the street. After walking for a while, he saw a small alley, but he
He didn't go in, but stood at the street corner waiting for her.
Man Bao was tripped up by Mrs. Han.
She had a rest today and didn't need to go to Jishi Hall, but she wanted to take a break today, so she went to Erliu Lane and checked Fu Wenyun's pulse, mainly to tell her what she had learned.
Then the two of them hid in the room and whispered. After getting better, Fu Wenyun finally discovered the unsightly wrinkles on her belly, so Manbao recommended the ointment to her.
In order to prevent her good friend from being cheated by shopkeeper Zheng Da, she made a special trip with Qiu Yue, and finally helped Qiu Yue buy the ointment. Before she could go out, she was blocked by Mrs. Han.
She came to Man Bao specifically because of her sister's affairs.
Mrs. Han said: "Miss Zhou, my fifth sister is nearly eight months pregnant. I wonder when you will have time to take a look at her?"
Man Bao thought for a while and said: "It will be fine tomorrow, just let her come over."
Mrs. Han paused and asked, "Can't Miss Zhou go to Yongzhou for medical treatment? It's not very far, and you can go back and forth in one day."
Although Manbao has never been to Yongzhou, he knows the distance, because Dr. Ding has been to Yongzhou's outpatient clinic and said that he can go back and forth in one day. That must be because it does not take time to see a doctor.
She said: "I have to sit in Half Heaven here at Jishi Hall, unless there is an emergency, so I'd better ask Mrs. Han Wu to come over."
"Besides, since it's been almost eight months, she should be about to give birth. Isn't it because Madam Han came to me because I once delivered a baby to the daughter-in-law of Songzi Lane?"
Mrs. Han's eyebrows jumped. She really found Man Bao because of this. Otherwise, for medical treatment, their family could afford to hire an imperial doctor, and Wen Po could also feel the fetus. In fact, not many people could use Man Bao.
Man Bao said: "It is impossible for me to leave the capital and go to Yongzhou to live there for several times, so for the convenience of the subsequent delivery, I still have to invite Mrs. Han Wu to come over."
Mrs. Han hesitated for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, I will send someone to pick her up today, and I will ask Miss Zhou to come to see her tomorrow."
Man Bao said it was no problem and asked her to send someone to pick her up at Jishi Hall tomorrow. "You can come here around noon."
