Chapter 267: Tricking People
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 Shengbao?"
Zhulan, "He didn't tell you?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "I didn't introduce my own name, I only introduced my eldest son Qian Laishun and my grandson Qian Cheng."
Zhulan, ".......the name Qianjia is really worthy of the surname except for Sunzi."
Zhou Shuren laughed out loud, and then he had a headache after laughing twice. "The Qian family can really drink. Seeing that I was joking and 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, the four of them couldn't beat Qian Laishun. They drank so much that they fell down. In the end, they had to rely on me."
Zhulan, "......."
This person was really drunk. She didn't prepare so much wine and thought that a moderate amount would be enough. Unexpectedly, most of the gifts sent by the Qian family today were wine, and the alcohol content was not small.
The Qian family came doubly prepared. If they agree, the wine is a gift. If they disagree, then they can drink it. The Qian family is so powerful that they even found out whether Zhou Shuren can drink.
Zhou Shuren was still complaining about the garbage that was Boss Zhou, 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 acknowledge her relatives, she wouldn't have a Qian family as a relative, so she wouldn't get 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 she doesn't have money now, she will have someone else in the future. Don't think too much."
Zhao thought of all the possibilities. She was really afraid that her mother would no longer like her. Not only would her life be difficult, but she would also feel uncomfortable. She felt relieved after hearing what her mother said, "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 bring it in. She reminded her, "Mom, the water is a little hot, please drink slowly."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Okay."
Among the three daughters-in-law, Li was the best. As the eldest son, she was the first to be forced to drink. Among the four sons, she drank the most. But Li was not unhappy at all. She was happily boiling water and had no intention of blaming Zhao. She even had time to please her!
Even though Dong didn't show anything, although she was still young, her eyes revealed her thoughts and she felt resentful.
There was really nothing Zhulan could do about it. Dong's background and education since childhood had destined her to look down on the Qian family from the bottom of her heart. No matter how rich the Qian family was, she still looked down on them.
All Zhulan could do was to explain that it was not addressed to Zhao but to Dong.
Zhulan brought the hot drink back to the room. Zhou Shuren had drunk too much and had no sleep posture. He just fell asleep with the pillow in his arms. Zhulan's eyes were tender. Zhou Shuren was really easy to deal with. He just slept even when he was drunk. He 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, and changed his underwear so that Zhou Shuren could sleep comfortably.
It was not even dark outside, but Zhulan couldn't sleep. She had been feeling a little sleepy lately. She could sleep during the day but not at night. She packed up Zhou Shuren's clothes and took them out to wash.
Zhulan sat and washed clothes while 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 his grandson Qian Cheng was in studying, he still couldn't enter the academy. Admission to the academy was not only based on examinations, but also required 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 would 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 powerful!
Zhulan washed the clothes and went back to the room to look at the gifts from the Qian family. This time, the gifts did not have any smell of money. In addition to the wine brought for a purpose, the gifts also included tea, paper, and ink.
To be honest, Zhulan really doesn't think that giving gold and silver is tacky. She 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 never refused outright. This meant that he was thinking about the Qian family. She said that if the meat was delivered to his door, how could Zhou Shuren let it go? She was itching!
They didn't eat dinner at night and just took a quick rest before going 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, which made Li so angry that she yelled 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 in his heart, looking at his four sons, "Oh, you can't drink this time?"
Boss Zhou lowered his head. He hadn't thought that the Qian family could drink so much. Now his stomach was churning when he thought about it.
Zhou Shuren tilted his head, "Hey, Boss, what happened to your eye? Did you bump it?"
Boss Zhou, "......."
Dad is really resentful, but he doesn’t dare to say that Li is the eldest. This is about a man’s face!
After hearing her father-in-law's question, Li shrunk her neck and drank her porridge, "Woo woo, boss, you have to hold on. She doesn't know if she will be punished or not. But she really 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 don't you say anything?"
Zhou Laoer's voice was hoarse. He talked too much yesterday. He thought of his wife. She didn't beat him, but she didn't care about him anymore 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, which was full of the smell of alcohol. "Why, didn't you drink enough yesterday? Did you drink as soon as you woke up in the morning?"
Chang Lian, "......."
He really didn't drink. He drank too much yesterday and his wife was weak, so he slept with his clothes on all night, so he smelled of alcohol. Now that his father is angry, it is better to keep silent.
Before Zhou Shuren could say anything else, Chang Zhi said in high spirits, "Dad, my brothers were too noisy when they were 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 frightened to death. Dad, in the future, not only will you practice drinking, but you will also not allow your 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 just go to sleep when 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 mouth!
Zhulan felt that she should make a summary, "The food will get cold soon, so eat quickly."
Zhou Laoer, "........"
Mother, you are biased. You help Chang Zhi to cheat them and don't give them any chance to refute!
Zhou Shuren calmed down, "Okay, let's eat."
After a lively breakfast, those who needed to study went to study, those who needed to catch up on sleep went to catch up on sleep. Zhulan wanted to go out for a walk, and then Mrs. Wu Li came, wiping away tears!
