Chapter 46 Yuan is not going back

Li had a loud voice, and Zheng next door heard the noise and ran to the wall. She climbed up the wall by stepping on the tree stump and said, "Niece, your family doesn't do any business. Tell your aunt."

Zhulan stared blankly at the one-meter-high wall, thinking in her heart that when Zhou Shuren went to the south of the Yangtze River, she would ask the eldest and second sons to build the wall higher, so that Zheng Shi would not have nothing to do and like to see the hustle and bustle in her house every day. The thought of it made her upset.

Li was talking about herself, so she kept her mouth shut, "Auntie, you heard me wrong, I was talking about San Ya's business."

Zheng was attracted to Sanya, and the number one gossip in the village has never died down. "Hey, Sanya, if you do business, please bring your auntie's family. Your auntie's family doesn't do business, so Sanya, remember your auntie when you recruit workers!"

Zhulan has not been here for long, but she does not dare to underestimate the ancients. People in every dynasty have their own survival instincts, especially those in the lower class, who know best what the taboos are.

Zheng was a child bride and took her husband's surname. The youngest son of the Zheng family went to school at the age of eight and stayed there for two years. He did not have great ambitions to take the imperial examinations but hoped to pass the examination and get some benefits. Naturally, he could not do business on his own, so he worked as a helper. The family had land, and there were many people in the village who went out to do odd jobs, so it was not a problem for him at all.

As for the fact that the Zheng family arranged for a third daughter to be married off for the sake of a better life, it was impossible. Here we have to mention the regulations regarding the imperial examinations for the relatives of merchants. It was stated that the son-in-law of a merchant and his descendants for three generations could not take the imperial examinations. This directly eliminated the possibility for some minor officials to marry merchants for money. As for sending them to be concubines, it didn't matter. Anyway, it was useless for boys born to concubines of merchants to take the imperial examinations.

Blood relatives of a merchant within three generations of mourning were not allowed to be examined by imperial examination, in order to prevent close blood relatives from becoming officials in the court and supporting the merchant.

When a dynasty was established, every educated person in the family knew this, so as to avoid ruining a bright future and bringing down the entire family.

The Shang were already in charge of the economy, and the previous dynasty gave them power, which fostered their ambitions. In order to cut off the Shang's ambitions and avoid further unrest, the new dynasty suppressed the Shang to the very bottom.

Zhulan frowned. The male protagonist is an official, how could he have a crush on Wang Ru? Wang Ru was just trying out her kimchi skills. Later, when she separated from the Wang family, she didn't get any land and didn't say she wanted to buy it. Instead, she went directly to the city and became a merchant. The male protagonist is the legitimate son, and his family concept is definitely the deepest. I think the novel is a pit, and there are probably too many loopholes to make up for it.

Li saw that her mother was distracted again. What could she do as the first daughter-in-law? She could only remind her mother from time to time, "Mom, Wang Laosi is here."

Zhulan cried out, only to find out that Wang Laosi had come in at some point. "Laosi, I'm not saying anything to you. Sanya has grown up, you should take care of her more. Look at how the child is scared. She's afraid she'll die. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Take her back quickly and don't scare the child anymore."

Wang Laosi's face was flushed. Aunt Zhou didn't say anything unpleasant, so why did he think soft words could be more offensive?

"Auntie, I'm going back now. I'll thank you another day."

Zhu Lan, "No, please don't. I'm not in good health and want to live longer. I don't want to get involved in your Wang family's affairs. Please keep an eye on the children and me in the future!"

"I understand, auntie."

Wang Laosi was angry because he lost the heart. He pulled San Ya's clothes and walked away in shame.

Zhulan sneered. Wang Laosi didn't change for the better. He got angry and wanted to control others. No wonder Wang Ru looked for someone else to cooperate with.

Zhulan saw Zhou Laoer staring at her and looked down at herself, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Lao Er shook his head, "There's nothing wrong."

It was just that his mother refreshed his cognition. He no longer had to worry about his mother being deceived in the future, because his mother was more sensible than he was.
