Chapter 319 Return to the DPRK
Zhulan laughed, "She was happy to buy it, but she spent a lot of money. She spent a lot of money, and it hurts!"
Zhou Shuren, “………It’s right!”
Bamboo orchid, “……….”
This person is really not very sensible, too slim.
Mingteng rushed in, "Grandma, grandma, what have you bought back."
Zhulan got used to her grandmother and smiled and pointed at the table, "There are small lanterns and sugar people on it. You and Yulu are separated!"
Mingteng said oh, and ran to the table happily and looked at it. Mingteng's smile was exactly the same as Li's, and his eyes were gone.
Mingteng took the candy man and thought to himself that it would be better to follow his grandparents. He played all the way to the capital. There were so many fun things to do when he arrived in the capital. He must show off to Yushuang when he went back!
Xuehan came in with Yu Lu in her arms, and Mingteng waved to his sister, "Come here quickly."
Xuehan held Yu Lu to the table, and Mingteng gave it to his sister like that.
Zhulan looked at her smile. It was great if this kid didn't eat alone. She was assigned to the last one. She obviously liked it very much, but she gave it to her sister.
Li won’t worry about buying fun for his son and daughter. Li’s purchases are all used by himself. This mother is so damn heartless!
Zhulan sent her two children out to play and asked Xuehan to keep the expenses today.
Xuehan took a breath while keeping the bills in mind, "Mom, it took fifteen taels a day today."
Zhulan smiled and said, "You can't calculate that. I bought a lot of food today. How many months of food can't be counted as spending in one day."
Xuehan was still scared and still felt that the expenses in the capital were too expensive.
Zhulan took out some broken silver and put it in a small wooden box and handed it to Xuehan, "You will take care of your family's expenses in the future. By the way, you will also take care of the monthly money of Xinghua and the others."
If you buy a maid and servant, you have to give monthly money. Ma Qiang and Ma Wei can't help much, but you can't treat it badly. There are 300 copper coins a month, 100 copper coins in Ma Eryue and Xinghua, 350 copper coins in the Beginning of Spring and Rain Water, Jingzhe follows Xuehan, 200 copper coins. The vernal equinox is too young and can't help, so you don't have to give monthly money.
The monthly money of the Zhou family has also increased. Zhou Laoda has four sons, one tael of silver a month, and several daughters-in-law are also one tael of silver. The grandchildren and granddaughter are both half tael of silver. Xuehan's daughter is also one tael of silver. Rong Chuan is the same as Zhou Laoda and his wife.
When talking about monthly money, Zhulan thought that Dong's monthly money was not as good as the monthly money of the official lady. Later, she couldn't help but ask Dong before she found out that the monthly money was decided by Mr. Dong, and her daughters and grandchildren were fifty cents and one hundred cents. In order to let her descendants know that it is not easy to make money, the old man hoped that his descendants would be thrifty in the future.
Although the rules are good, there are rules and countermeasures on the other hand. Dong said that their children have never relied on monthly income since childhood, and the New Year's money is a lot, so a year is basically enough.
The rules of the Dong family still have a certain effect. The children of the Dong family know that they have little monthly money. Every time they give out monthly money, they will remind themselves that money is not easy.
Xuehan was a little excited. She wanted to help her mother's housekeeper. She was so old that she could help her mother for the first time. "Mom, I will manage it."
"Mom believes in you."
Half an hour later, the eldest couple came back. Lunch was the first meal to come to Beijing. As the war in the northwest was about to end, Li bought a lot of meat and vegetables and prepared to make more hearty.
It’s not even winter yet, and there are a lot of green vegetables in the capital, including spinach, Chinese cabbage, rapeseed, etc. Li bought some.
There are the most types of meat in Beijing. In a shop that specializes in selling meat, you can buy the meat you want as long as you have money. There are also venison, but the price is very touching.
Li bought ten kilograms of fat meat and fryed oil, five kilograms of pork belly, two kilograms of lean meat, ten kilograms of ribs, and ten kilograms of mutton.
Mrs. Li also wanted to buy lotus root, but it was a bit expensive, so Mrs. Li didn't buy it.
I made eight dishes at noon, and the staple food was rice.
Zhulan family and Ma family have a separate meal. Zhulan gives Ma family a month of food every month and vegetables every day, and Ma family cooks it themselves.
Nowadays, there are fewer servants to eat like this. When there are too many servants in the future, there will be places where the servants can eat specifically.
After lunch, there was still a lot of work to do. Fortunately, I brought the eldest son Zhou and his wife. In addition, Xinghua and others didn’t need Zhulan and Zhou Shuren to do it. They just need to talk.
In the afternoon, all the lanterns I bought were hung, the grass in the yard had to be cleaned, and the firewood in the wood in the woodshed should be chopped.
Zhulan's family was busy for two days before they could completely clean up the house in the capital.
Just as the house was cleaned up, the Zhou family received a post from Zhao Bo, and Zhao Bo was coming to visit the people who recognized the house.
On the second day, Zhao Bo did not come alone, and Deng Xiucai came together.
Deng Xiucai came to the door with a gift, "A few months after parting, Xiucai Zhou was already a Juren of Zhou, and he did not respect him at all."
Zhou Shuren said politely: "Deng Xiu's greatest wish is to come. Please sit down."
Deng Xiucai's eyes were shining. He really didn't expect that because Zhao Bo's face did not cheat Zhou Xiucai, fortunately he didn't cheat. This person has become a juren in a few months and is a figure!
Zhao Bo smiled and said, "Brother Zhou's house is very good, it is much more refined than my courtyard."
Zhou Shuren, "It seems that it is really good to have caught Brother Zhao's eyes."
Zhao Bo sighed, "It's not just good, Brother Zhou, don't be modest."
Zhou Shuren said modestly: "Thanks to Deng Xiucai's help!"
Zhao Bo laughed, "Then you have to thank him, the price of a house will double in a few days!"
Zhou Shuren narrowed his eyes. Zhao Bo was well-informed, "Is the Northwest over?"
Zhao Bo lowered his voice, "Yes, it's over, the army is going to return to the court, and this time he captured a leader of the foreign tribe, and he won a great victory."
He heard all the clans who were in charge of the court, and told him that the spring exam next year may be related to the post-war period!
Zhou Shuren thought of the Yang brothers, but he didn't know what happened to the three brothers.
At noon, Zhao Bo and Deng Xiucai had wine at the Zhou family and Zhulan did not ask Li to prepare the cooking, but directly prepared hot pot, mutton and mushroom hot pot.
Zhulan also ate hot pot in the backyard. Zhou Shuren saw it in the store. He bought two of them and then used them today.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Bo and Deng Xiucai left.
Zhou Shuren also drank a lot, and it was obvious that he was just a cliché. Otherwise, Zhou Shuren wouldn't have drunk so much. Zhulan twisted a handkerchief and wiped Zhou Shuren's face, "What did he say?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "Teng Xiucai has found a lot of things. Zhao Bo is very strict with his mouth. He will naturally say what he wants to say, but he will not say what he doesn't want to say even if he drinks too much."
But what he wanted to do was Zhao Bo's words. It seems that Zhao Bo has also received training and his mouth is much stricter than before.
Zhulan said: "Zhao Bo will come with Deng Xiucai and have something to do!"
Zhou Shuren nodded, "Well, Zhao Bo wants to buy a yard in our house, and the price is based on the current market price."
Chapter completed!
