Time passes silently, and before you know it, it's a year.

The two biggest things in the Zhou family this year are that Zhulan has another grandson, and the King of Qin has a eldest grandson, and the second is that Zhou Mingyun, the eldest grandson, got married in the beginning of this year.

This year is the second year that the new emperor succeeds to the throne. As autumn approaches, Mingyun is also preparing to set off again to take the provincial examination.

Zhulan looked at Li, who was relaxed, "You are so quick to let go, and now you don't worry about Mingyun at all."

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "I don't worry about Wan'er here."

Li became a mother-in-law, and she learned how to get along with her daughter-in-law. After her son got married, she never asked about anything about her son's room. Her daughter-in-law was grateful for her goodness and was very filial to her.

Sometimes, she is busy, and her eldest daughter-in-law will help take care of Mingjing, a naughty child. The younger son's temperament and name are completely opposite. The most naughty one is the younger son. Fortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law is patient, which really helped her a lot.

Zhulan likes this granddaughter-in-law, which is equivalent to watching her grow up. This child has a good temperament and is good to younger brothers and sisters. What else can she choose? Moreover, this child often comes to chat with her.

Zhulan smiled and said, "Ran Wan goes back together, and your parents can see her."

Li thought of his tough parents and smiled, "Yes, since Mingyun got engaged, my mother wanted to meet her grandson-daughter-in-law, so she was looking forward to Mingyun taking Ran Wan back with her in the village exam!"

Now the Li family is getting better and better. They already have their own farm. There are more children studying in the family. As long as they persist in the future, they can change the family. Now their parents have completely let go and focus on watching the children at home. They raise them well and make up for the losses they had when they were young. They will naturally be in good health.

A few days ago, the elder brother said that his father and mother went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, saying that they wanted to eat it for their grandson and daughter-in-law!

Xuemei arrived at this time, and Zhulan saw her eldest daughter, "I was thinking that you were about to arrive."

Xuemei, "Mom, what are you talking about with your sister-in-law?"

Zhulan said that the Li family wanted to meet their grandson-in-law, and then asked back: "Have you packed your luggage?"

Xuemei nodded, "It's already packed."

Li continued, "Is Jiang Duzhen not taking the provincial examination this time? This child's grades last time were pretty good."

Xuemei shook her head, "Jiang Sheng thinks Jiang Du is still young, three years later. Jiang Du also means that. I want to follow us to travel next year to broaden my horizons."

Zhulan didn't interfere too much with Jiang Du's future. Her eldest daughter and eldest son-in-law were both people with ideas. With Jiang Du's own wishes, she and Zhou Shuren only need support. In fact, it is better for the two children to take the exam together than to take the exam together.

Although she and Zhou Shuren did not intervene, they also discussed that this generation was destined to be Mingyun's style, and Jiang Du was bound to be under the light of Mingyun. In addition, Jiang Du's young age would be detrimental to Jiang Du's future.

The Zhou family was the most eye-catching time. There was a high-profile Mingyun. It was unlikely that Jiang Du would stay in Beijing. Not to mention Jiang Du this year, even the children of the Zhou clan would not stay in Beijing if they passed the exam.

Jiang Du left the capital and was young, and was still the grandson of the Zhou family. He had only plans around him, so it was wise to have three years late.

Obviously, Jiang Sheng and Jiang Du also thought of this, and just took advantage of their youth to walk around and see each other. While gaining knowledge, they would not be fooled in the future.

When Zhulan was distracted, Li had already talked to Xuemei about something else. Li said: "The latest issue of the publicity has been copied back. I saw the travel article written by my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law wrote so well. I can understand it if I don’t have many cultures. After reading the article, I seem to have been there myself."

Xuemei bent her eyes and was proud of her husband. "He also listened to his father's opinions and switched to vernacular language that is easy to read. And it was also said that he should not only record, but also evaluate more and highlight local characteristics, etc.."

Of course, she also gave some suggestions when writing, so I won’t talk about it.

Li raised his thumbs up, "Dad is naturally amazing, and my brother-in-law can write so well is really capable. Mingyun has put this article away and said that he will have a lot of things left when he goes to Xiangzhou to bring this article in the future."

Xuemei smiled and said, "The next article will be released in half a month. It will be more detailed, not only the scenery, but also the food and accommodation."

Zhulan is the first person to read the manuscript of his son-in-law. A state cannot be written in one article. It is divided into several articles, including food, clothing, housing and transportation, cultural traditions, etc.

After reading Zhulan, I have to admit that my eldest son-in-law is really capable, especially the paintings. I have seen more and traveled more, so I naturally feel them. I think of this.

Zhulan asked her eldest daughter, "Have you sold the butterfly picture that Jiang Sheng brought back?"

Xuemei said, "I was about to tell my mother that I had already sold it, and I had sold it for fifty taels."

For Jiang Sheng, who is just starting out in his paintings, the price is not low.

Zhulan actually liked it very much, but she spoke and gave it to her directly. She held back after seeing it.

Li's eyes widened: "Fifty taels."

Xuemei nodded with a smile, "Yes, we didn't expect it."

Zhulan thought that this time the promotional article also included Jiang Sheng's paintings, "After the promotion, Jiang Sheng's paintings will be worth more."

If Jiang Sheng hadn't submitted his articles more than a year later, with the number of promotional articles, Jiang Sheng would have been forgotten long ago. Jiang Sheng's butterfly pictures are more than fifty taels, but now they can be sold for fifty taels. The Zhou family has something to do with them, so most of them are better than Jiang Sheng's own paintings.

Xuemei knew why her husband sold the paintings. First, her husband felt that they were imperfect and not worthy of his collection. Second, for traveling, she needed money every year. Moreover, when her son grew up and her daughter grew up, she needed to save all betrothal gifts and dowry.

In the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren fiddled with the self-tone bell. This is a self-tone bell made by his own. With the changes in needs, his technology has become more and more proficient. Now the self-tone bell in Zhou Shuren's hand is one-third smaller than last year.

This was uniformly configured for each department, and there was no such benefit before.

Just as he was listening to the time, he heard the footsteps, Zhou Shuren looked up and was stunned for a few seconds before he realized and got up to greet him, "I have met the Supreme Emperor."

The Supreme Emperor took the box from his father-in-law behind him, "No gift."

Zhou Shuren straightened up and was stuffed with a box, "Is this?"

The Supreme Emperor sat down and said, "This is the gift I brought to you when I come back. Open it and see if you like it."

Zhou Shuren complained in his heart that since the Emperor left Beijing this year, he could receive specialties from time to time. What made him most angry was that Emperor still showed off his bad looks. He had to write a letter to the good scenery and write good food, so that he could vomit blood if he was a popular person in the capital.

Zhou Shuren did not rush to open it, but instead wondered, "I think the Supreme Emperor will come back only when winter begins."
