Zhou Shuren drank a lot today. It was his first time drinking and he felt a little dizzy. He lay sideways on the kang and said, "Yes, I want to go to the academy to study. Is the butler Qian's name Qian Shengbao?"
Zhulan: "He didn't tell you?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "He didn't introduce his own name, he only introduced his eldest son Qian Laishun and grandson Qian Cheng."
Zhulan, "... ...The name Qianjia really lives up to the family name, except for the grandson."
Zhou Shuren laughed out loud, and had a headache after laughing twice, "The Qian family can really drink. Seeing that I didn't agree, they wanted to get me to agree at the dinner table. The boys in our family couldn't do it either. They said they could drink, but in the end, four of them couldn't beat Qian Laishun. They drank so much that they had to rely on me in the end."
Zhulan, "... ..."
This man was really drunk. She didn't prepare that much wine, thinking that a moderate amount would be fine. Unexpectedly, most of the gifts sent by the Qian family today were wine, and the alcohol content was not small.
The Qian family has made doubly preparations. If they agree, the wine is a gift. If they don't agree, then they can drink it. The Qian family is so powerful that they even found out that Zhou Shuren can drink.
Zhou Shuren was still complaining about Boss Zhou and his gang of losers, and he started snoring while mumbling.
Zhulan took off Zhou Shuren's shoes and moved him to the kang. Fortunately, she was very strong, otherwise she would not have been able to move Zhou Shuren. She took off Zhou Shuren's coat and went downstairs to the kitchen to get hot water.
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw that all the daughters-in-law were there. The men in the Zhou family were all drunk today.
Zhao lowered her head and said, "Mom, this is all because of me."
If she didn't recognize her relatives, she wouldn't have the Qian family as a relative. She wouldn't have gotten her father-in-law drunk today. She was afraid that her mother and father-in-law would have opinions about her, especially since she vaguely heard her father-in-law's voice just now and she didn't know if it was a complaint.
Zhulan thought that the bad thing about Zhao was that she was too thoughtful and overthinking. "Even if there is no Qian family now, there will be someone else in the future. Don't think too much."
Zhao thought of all the possibilities. She was really afraid that her mother didn't like her anymore. Not only would her life be difficult, but she would also feel uncomfortable. After hearing what her mother said, she felt relieved. "Yes."
Li handed the basin of hot water to her mother-in-law. Her father-in-law was resting in the main room, so she couldn't help her mother carry it in. She reminded her, "Mom, the water is a little hot, please go slowly."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Okay."
Among the three daughters-in-law, Li is the best. As the eldest son, he was the first to be forced to drink. Among the four sons, he drank the most. But Li was not unhappy at all. She was happily boiling hot water and did not blame Zhao at all. She even had time to please her!
Even though Dong didn't show anything, although she was young, her eyes revealed her thoughts and she felt resentful.
There is really nothing Zhulan can do about this. Dong's background and education since childhood have destined her to look down on the Qian family from the bottom of her heart. No matter how rich the Qian family is, she still looks down on them.
All Zhulan could do was explain that it was actually addressed to Dong rather than Zhao.
Zhulan brought the hot pot back to the room. Zhou Shuren was drunk and had no sleep posture. He just slept soundly with the pillow in his arms. There was tenderness in Zhulan's eyes. Zhou Shuren was really easy to deal with. He just slept even when drunk and didn't make any noise. Well, he was quite cute!
Of course it would be better if he didn't have a beard!
Zhulan wiped Zhou Shuren's face and body, changed his underwear, and let Zhou Shuren sleep comfortably.
It was not yet dark outside, but Zhulan couldn't sleep. She had been sleeping a little lightly lately. She slept during the day but couldn't sleep at night. She packed up Zhou Shuren's clothes and took them out to wash.
Zhulan sat there washing clothes and thinking, some of the connections in ancient times were too obvious. It didn't matter that the Qian family was rich. No matter how talented the grandson Qian Cheng was in studying, he still couldn't get into the academy. Admission to the academy required not only an exam, but also three generations of family history. Even if the Qian family became farmers, they couldn't change their experience of being slaves in merchants' families. The academy did not allow them to enroll, and the students inside also resisted.
The Qian family really thinks highly of Zhou Shuren. They really think Zhou Shuren is so prestigious!
Zhulan washed the clothes and went back to the house to look at the gifts from the Qian family. This time the gifts did not have any trace of money. Except for the wine that was brought for a purpose, the other gifts were tea, paper, and ink.
To be honest, Zhulan doesn't think that giving gold and silver is tacky. She just likes tacky things, the tackyer the better, such as silver, or even better, gold.
Thinking of this, Zhulan looked at Zhou Shuren. This man didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either. It seemed that he had his eyes on the Qian family. She said that if it was meat delivered to his door, how could Zhou Shuren let it go? She was itching to try it!
They didn't even have dinner in the evening. They just took a quick rest and went to sleep. Among the Zhou family members, only Chang Zhi had a drinking habit like Zhou Shuren. As for the other three, Zhulan laughed. They were all talkative and never quiet. This made Li so angry that she yelled at them several times.
The next morning, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren were in good spirits, but Li's daughters-in-law were not so good.
Zhou Shuren also felt resentful and looked at his four sons, "Oh, you can't drink this time?"
Boss Zhou lowered his head. He didn't expect the Qian family to be so good at drinking. Now his stomach felt a little queasy when he thought about it.
Zhou Shuren tilted his head and said, "Hey, Boss, what happened to your eyes? Did you knock them?"
Boss Zhou, “… .”
Dad is really resentful, but he doesn't dare to say that Li is the eldest, because this is a matter of a man's face!
After hearing her father-in-law's question, Li shrunk her neck and drank her porridge, saying, "Woo woo, the head of the family, you have to hold on. She didn't know if she would be punished. But she was so patient that she endured it again and again, but she couldn't bear it anymore!"
Zhulan stared at Li and wanted to laugh in her heart. Li was capable of this!
Zhou Shuren didn't mean to ask any more questions, he just made a few sarcastic remarks and looked at Zhou Laoer, "Why aren't you talking?"
Zhou Laoer's voice was hoarse. He talked too much yesterday. He thought of his wife. His wife didn't beat him, but later she didn't care about him and went to sleep with her daughter. "Dad, I must practice my drinking capacity in the future."
Zhou Shuren snorted, looked at Chang Lian, and wrinkled his nose, smelling of alcohol. "Why, didn't you drink enough yesterday? Did you drink as soon as you woke up this morning?"
Chang Lian, “… . . . .”
He really didn't drink. He drank too much yesterday and his wife was weak, so he slept all night with his clothes on, so he smelled of alcohol. Now that his father is angry, it's better to keep silent.
Before Zhou Shuren could speak again, Chang Zhi said in high spirits, "Dad, my brothers are too noisy when they are drunk. I woke up in the middle of the night to relieve myself and could hear ghosts howling in the backyard. Fortunately, I am a brave son, otherwise I would have been scared sick. Dad, in the future, not only will we practice drinking, but we will also not allow our brothers to howl when drunk, otherwise it will disturb Mom's rest and that will be bad."
Zhou Shuren stroked his chin and said, "You are right."
Changzhi continued, "I still miss my dad the most! I'll just sleep if I drink too much!"
Boss Zhou, "... ... ... "
Zhou Laoer, "... ... ... "
Chang Lian, "... ... ... "
This guy will either be indifferent and keep silent, or he will kill you with a roar if he opens his mouth!
Zhulan felt that she should make a summary, "The food will get cold soon, let's eat quickly."
Zhou Laoer, “… … ..”
Mother, you are biased. You help Chang Zhi to cheat them and don't even give them a chance to refute!
Zhou Shuren calmed down, "Okay, let's eat."
After the lively breakfast, those who needed to study went to study, those who needed to catch up on sleep went to sleep, Zhulan wanted to go out for a walk, and then Mrs. Wu Li came, wiping her tears!
