Chapter 986 Imperial Examination Evil Granny (9)

"Little sister, how are you doing in the Han family? Why does it seem to have turned darker?" Brother Zhang looked at the younger sister in front of him and asked with some doubts.

Zhang Luoyi's face froze immediately, and she shouted unhappily: "Where did I turn black? Brother must have read it wrong."

Big brother Zhang saw that he had poked his sister's sore spot, and quickly made amends: "That's right, big brother made a mistake." He looked at the skin on his sister's face and neck that was obviously darker than before she was married, and said against his conscience .

"Han Ji is studying in the academy, and there are only you and your mother-in-law left at home. How do you get along? You haven't been bullied, right?" Brother Zhang still cares about his sister very much.

"No, my mother-in-law is pretty good, but her health is a bit weak. Now she has left all the family affairs in my hands, which makes me feel more at ease." Because Wu Shichu was never as rough, direct and tough as the original owner in his life. Zhang Luoyi asked Zhang Luoyi to do housework, but put aside the housework in a devious way by pretending to be sick, so Zhang Luoyi didn't notice her "sinister intentions" at all, and felt that Wu Shichu was very kind to her and valued her , don't you value her?Give her all the powers of housekeeping.

Brother Zhang didn't hear anything wrong when he heard what his sister said. Instead, he was happy for his sister: "Then it seems that you married the right family, unlike some families, where the mother-in-law is in charge of everything in the family. Control the son and daughter-in-law strictly, not allowing anything, and even torture the daughter-in-law."

"Of course, it's my own choice, how can there be any mistakes?" Zhang Luoyi said proudly.

"It's just that the family is poor, and you have to pay for a wife yourself." Brother Zhang was a little unhappy when he thought of this.

"Oh, brother, the woman I bought is working for me. Why can't I pay for it myself? And this little money makes my husband-in-law feel that he owes me. It's worth the money." Zhang Luoyi said eloquently.

"Forget it, just be happy with yourself." Brother Zhang said, thinking how long can a man's debt last?

The brother and sister talked about other things. Wu Shichu and Mrs. Song had already prepared lunch, and they called them out for dinner.

Big brother Zhang was a little surprised when he saw the sumptuous food on the table: "My aunt treats me with such a sumptuous food, I am really ashamed of it."

"Why are you being polite? The chickens and ducks are all raised at home, and the other dishes are not worth much. It's just that the cooking is fresher and it looks richer. You can eat as much as you want, you are all a family, so don't be polite!" Wu Shichu was very generous. Greet Zhang Dalang for dinner.

Looking at this table of food, Zhang Dalang doubted whether his previous guess about the family background of the Han family was correct. After all, even if it was their family, it might not be possible to gather such a good table of food for guests.

But soon he didn't have the heart to think about it, because the food was so delicious, he didn't have any thoughts on other things besides eating.

When he finally left, he left with a full stomach.

From then on, Mrs. Song stayed in the Han family. She was really capable and diligent. After having her, both Zhang Luoyi and Wu Shichu were free, especially Wu Shichu. After dinner, I went to chat with the elderly neighbors under the big banyan tree at the head of the village. I had a leisurely time without worrying about family affairs.

Those neighbors looked at her leisurely appearance, envious and jealous, and said sourly: "Ms. Wu, you have been an ancestor since you were only in your 30s? Don't you have to worry about family affairs? By the way, I heard that you The family also found a mother-in-law to do the work, which is really a blessing for you..."

Wu Shichu smiled modestly and said: "This is also the filial piety of the son and daughter-in-law. Knowing that I am not in good health and can't do much work, I asked someone to help."

"It seems that your family, Han Ji, is really promising, and can afford to support a working woman." The jealous neighbor lady continued to say bitterly.

"Where is where? In fact, our family is still poor. It's just that Han Ji is writing letters, copying books, and selling paintings outside. I can earn some money to subsidize the family, so I feel more relaxed." Wu Shichu Continuing with the Versailles speech, Han Ji would indeed copy letters and sell paintings to earn money, but that little money was not even enough for the monthly food expenses he gave to the academy, so what kind of family could he subsidize?
In the past, the original owner was exhausted to do the embroidery work for him, but now that Wu Shichu quit on strike, she didn't care where he raised the money to pay it. Maybe his virtuous and considerate wife can subsidize him?
"You confessed your son, and you will enjoy a lot of blessings in the future. If Han Ji really goes to the capital to become a high official in the future, wouldn't you be able to become an old lady..." Another old woman was extremely envious asked clearly.

"Hey, it's still a long way off. Han Ji hasn't even taken the exam for a scholar yet. It will be several years before he gets a Jinshi and become an official. He has to pass the exam well. I will definitely be able to go to the capital." Wu Shichu said with a smile, this is not because she is modest, but the fact.

"Han Ji is so smart. The masters in the academy praised him for being young and talented, so he will definitely stand out. What are you worried about? Just wait to become an old lady!"

"Then I will accept your noble words, haha."

Wu Shichu successfully joined the children and grandchildren mutual praise group of the elderly group in the village. Every day, she either heard people praise her children and grandchildren for their promise, or heard others praise her son. I feel much more relaxed, and I feel ten years younger.

Sure enough, as long as people are content, they will always be happy. Like the original owner, they worry too much, control too much, pay too much for their son, and think too little about themselves. Daughter-in-law complains and hates.

Like she is now, she puts everything aside and reaps a lot of happiness, and she will not be complained by her son and daughter-in-law.

Half a month passed quickly, and Han Ji also had a day off and went home from the academy.

A newly married man naturally wants to be tender with his sweet wife all the time, Wu Shichu will not be an eyesore, let alone a queen mother who beats mandarin ducks.

She suspected that the original owner was given up by his son without hesitation in his previous life. One of the reasons was that the original owner felt that Zhang Luoyi had taken away his son, so he didn't like Zhang Luoyi, and ran out to stir up trouble when the young couple were getting along without winking. Isn't it annoying?
When Han Ji returned home, he saw that there was indeed an unfamiliar maid working at home. He was happy but worried: "My lady, did we really buy a servant? What if we can't afford it?"

"Why can't I afford it? Now I just need to give her a monthly bill of a few hundred yuan, which is not expensive." Zhang Luoyi said indifferently, "I even gave out the ten taels of silver to buy her. Now What are these hundreds of dollars?"
