Chapter 870 The Zhou Family's Daily Life



The reason was that the teacher was staying so that Zhou Bin could focus on his studies before the exam.

Zhou Bin's stupidity was well-known at Yiyun Academy.

Now, since the preliminary examination for the imperial examinations is in two days, the academy has given them two days off so they can stay home and study diligently.

Zhou Bin only returned today.

Xia Minmin knew that although Zhou Bin was dull-witted, he had put a lot of thought into her. So why, after they got married...

Not touching yourself?

"Minmin, why do you want me to sleep in the study?" Zhou Bin didn't want to sleep in the study.

"Of course, it's so you can study hard. You'll be taking the preliminary imperial examination the day after tomorrow," Xia Minmin said with a smile.

She was waiting, waiting for this man to take the initiative and say that he wanted to sleep with her, but unexpectedly, Zhou Bin nodded blankly.

He said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"From now on, you will sleep in the study." Xia Minmin's face darkened, and she turned and went to the kitchen.

Zhou Bin was slightly taken aback. How could a woman's face change so suddenly? This was too strange.

Inside the kitchen, Zhou's mother and Wang's grandmother were chatting casually.

Granny Wang was a maid hired by the Zhou family.

"I was just about to call you for dinner, and here you are!" Zhou's mother said with a smile. "Bin'er is still studying."

"He just closed his book." Xia Minmin's face lit up with a smile. "Mom, where did Dad go?"

"He went out to discuss business." Just as Zhou's mother finished speaking, Zhou the landlord drove his oxcart into the courtyard and casually asked:

"Why are you only getting back now?"

"It's not too late, is it?" Zhou's father glanced at the sky. "Her mother, come and help out."

"I'll help." Upon hearing this, Xia Minmin hurriedly came out of the kitchen and helped unload the vegetable baskets from the oxcart.

"Dad, how did the business deal go?" Xia Minmin asked with a smile.

"The deal is done, but there's not much profit. This Zhang fellow is a real shrewd man; he's really driven the price down quite a bit." After saying that, Zhou the landlord shook his head, "Sigh, the price is too low."

Today, he went to the Zhang family to deliver goods.

Because Zhang's wife had just given birth to a baby boy.

This was a great joy for Master Zhang.

Therefore, Master Zhang wanted to throw a grand banquet.

Xia Minmin thought to herself, "You're no less shrewd; you're both very clever."

Her father-in-law was very generous to his own family, but when it came to outsiders, he was incredibly cunning in his schemes.

She had some doubts and wondered how such a shrewd father could have given birth to a son like Zhou Bin.

This doubt, however, lasted only a moment.

Because my mother-in-law is gentle, virtuous, and meticulous.

"Dad, please take me with you when it comes to business matters. I want to go out with you and broaden my horizons."

When Xia Minmin first married into the Zhou family, her in-laws wouldn't let her do anything.

Grandma Wang takes care of all the household chores.

The meal was cooked by her mother-in-law, and Xia Minmin thought that her mother-in-law's cooking was really delicious.

The family's land and other businesses were managed by the father-in-law.

Zhou Bin is devoted to his studies.

Xia Minmin was the only one who had nothing to do; even her own clothes were washed by Granny Wang.

In just a few days, Xia Minmin felt that she was being spoiled and ruined.

She's someone who can't sit still at all.

“Alright, I’m going to the Zhou family to deliver goods tomorrow, you can come with your father.” Zhou’s father laughed twice and readily agreed, assuming that Xia Minmin was just being playful.

Upon raising his eyes, Zhou's father saw Zhou Bin approaching, his smile vanished, and he spoke:

"How's your reading going?"

Since his son Xia Minmin got married, Zhou, the landlord, has become increasingly dissatisfied with his son.
