Chapter 189 Maintenance
When Mrs. Ma came, Wenwen hurriedly stood up to greet her, "Mother, why are you here? If someone calls me, I will pass."

"Xiaoya with you?"

"Here, we had dinner together at noon and drank a jug of rose wine. She was sleepy and I was afraid that she might get windy, so I let her lie in the room for a while."

Mrs. Ma suddenly laughed, "This child, I always miss your rose wine, and I came here to satisfy my hunger. I said why I can't find anyone everywhere, and I came here to drink secretly. It's really..."

"Hunzi won't let me bring wine to Xiaoya, otherwise I will give her two jugs. Hunchi said that my sister is still young and can't drink so much wine. If I want to drink, I can just take a sip."

Mrs. Ma smiled with satisfaction, "I'm relieved to have you take care of her. This child is spoiled by your grandmother. She is coquettish and self-willed. Please help me persuade her more, and don't let her have fun."

"Don't worry, I'm watching. I even settled the accounts for me today, and the calculations are fast, and I understand it in my heart.

She is playful at a young age, and when I was her age, I tried my best to make Hunchun work, and I was lazy. "

"I don't ask her how capable she is, I just ask her to marry a man who treats her well."

"Xiaoya is the eldest daughter, and her marriage is a big deal. As an older brother, she must contribute. Not to mention her character and family background, she must inquire about it. As my sister-in-law, I must support Xiaoya and make decisions.

We had a good time, and I also liked my sister's behavior, we were having a temper tantrum. "

Obedient and listening, Wenwen can understand Ma Shi's heart, she is just a mother to her children.

"With you here, I feel much more at ease. I'll go back and let her sleep."

"Then mother, go slowly, I will take good care of my sister."

"Okay, go back."

Mrs. Ma left amicably, feeling quite satisfied in her heart.

She knows her own daughter, the Shizi is relatively indifferent to her, but he really loves this girl very much. Xiaoya has a willful temper and high vision. She was raised by an old lady. It's so nice, she took the initiative to come to the door, I really like this sister-in-law.

Sending off her mother-in-law, Wenwen breathed a sigh of relief, and sat in the outhouse doing embroidery work quietly.

Xiaoya slept for a while before waking up, rubbing her eyes and running out.

"sister in law."

"Wake up, I boiled tremella pear juice, drink a little to moisten the throat."

"it is good."

After drinking a large cup of tremella soup, Xiaoya sighed comfortably.

"Why hasn't my brother come back yet?"

"We'll have to wait a while, you can stay and have dinner with us."

"Grandma said to eat together."

"Okay, I'll be there in a while, I've done these few stitches."

"it is good."

Xiaoyun brought hot water and asked Xiaoya to wash her face and tidy her hair before she ran to find the old lady to have fun.

After a while, Zhou Hui came back, wearing an indigo cloud pattern cloak, which was also made by Wenwen for him, and he looked very mysterious and noble wearing him, with a very prominent demeanor.

"I'm back. Are you busy today? Are you tired? I'll make white fungus soup and have a sip."

"Okay, I'm not tired enough. It's very lively this morning. The mouths of these officials are like knives, they can cut your flesh."

Zhou Hui rubbed his eyebrows, listening to the quarrel all morning, his mind was buzzing.

Wenwen stepped forward to rub his head for him to soothe him.

"It's much harder than studying."

"However, at that time, I didn't feel that studying was hard. I felt that reading was very happy. This would be exhausting, unable to do things too big, and constantly making noise."

"We still need to learn more from the elders. These people are not easy to deal with. Is there someone to win you over?"

"It's been there for a long time, wave after wave is like cutting leeks, it's annoying.

Only now do I realize how difficult it was for my uncle back then. The capital city was too difficult. If you were not careful, you would be doomed. It was even more difficult to get ahead. "

It was only after Zhou Hui entered the court that he realized that every step was very difficult.

He grabbed her hand and asked her with a smile, "What did you do at home today?"

"Xiaoya came to play with me. We both had lunch and drank a glass or two of rose wine."

"Who made this dress for?"

"I'll do it for the old man. I'm thinking about changing seasons, so prepare Shan in advance."

"Don't have mine?"

Zhou Hui hugged her and let her sit on his lap, and acted like a baby with his arms around her.

"There's yours, and wait."

"Then I want nice patterns."

"Okay, I'll make you the best looking ones. I've prepared all the materials. I'm busy. When the summer clothes are ready, I'll make you autumn clothes, as well as winter cotton boots and waist protectors. .”

"Let the subordinates do it if you can't finish it, and do it yourself if you don't have to."

"I'm not tired. I'm fine if you're not at home."

"Thank you for your hard work. You have to take care of a big family. This work is more than what you do at home. I don't have time to carve when I look at you."

"Don't worry, just straighten it out. If you have time, you can carve a few knives. That's a hobby."

"Let's go, let's go to the main courtyard for dinner."

Zhou Hui got up, washed his face and changed into regular clothes, went to the main courtyard with Wen Min to have a meal with the old man.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw my second aunt smiling and saying, "Look, come on, the young couple is reluctant to part."

"Second Aunt, you laughed at me, we had a few words."

Wenwen dragged her second aunt to act like a baby.

"I feel sorry for you."

Mrs. Qian is very lively and good at creating atmosphere. Mrs. Zhou still loves her very much.

Everyone sat down to eat, and the old lady said, "Old man, I am thinking about the child's living in the opposite month, and I will move it a little bit. When Niangen has time, let the two children go back to Wangjia Village to see the old lady. She is alone. In the village, people still feel uneasy."

"Okay, Niangen has about a month. It's faster by boat, and you can stay at home for half a month. You also go back to see the old man."

An Guogong readily agreed.

Zhou Hui glanced at Wenwen and winked at her.

"Thank you grandpa, thank you grandma."

"You're welcome, you should be filial to your elders."

Mrs. Zhou also likes Wenwen's character, she is filial, sensible, talented, quick-responsive and smart.

"Tomorrow, I'll take a two-day bath. I'll go to Zhuangzi to have a look. By the way, I'll take a look at Wenwen's dowry business. Do you need anything?"

"No need."

"Brother, take me with you, I'll learn from you."

Zhou Bin looked at Zhou Hui anxiously.

"You can go if you want."

"I think you are going to play."

Zhou Er Er glared at his son.

Zhou Bin pouted and remained silent.

"If you want to go, you can learn from me. You can also run errands in the future. Oh, my uncle said that there is a vacant position in the Ministry of Industry. The official position is lower, but he is quite experienced. Ask me. How about Let Binzi go."

This is called making up one's seat, and one can make up one's seat after the assessment. It is not the same as entering an official position through the imperial examination. This assessment is not too difficult.The imperial examination is very rare, and thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge. This is the real skill.

Filling a seat is based on relationships, and requires certain contacts and resources, otherwise you will not be able to find the door.

"Do you want to go? Your brother gave you the opportunity. If you want to go, do it well. Don't be afraid of hardship."

"I'll go, I'm not afraid of hardships. Brother, thank Uncle Shi for me. In other words, I will come to thank you personally."

"My family doesn't say such kind words."

Why did Wang Yi give it to the Zhou family and not to his own family?
