4797--Andrew Mrs. Zuo's joke

Zuo Junmo gave blacksmith Luo a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Uncle Luo is really awesome. He can hit the mark with just one guess. Yes, that's exactly what he meant!"

Mu Zichuan also smiled and nodded, and Baobao Luo even said excitedly: "Grandpa is so awesome. Grandpa is as good as Uncle Mu. If grandpa had also gone to school back then, he would definitely be a high official now!

"

Blacksmith Luo's face turned red after being praised by his little granddaughter, and the breakfast came to an end in such a pleasant and warm atmosphere.

After eating and drinking, Mu Zichuan invited Zuo Junmo to go to school in the morning, and Luo Baobao walked with them with his small schoolbag.

Before leaving, Zuo Junmo specifically told Yang Ruoqing that he would not come back for dinner at noon, but would eat with Mu Zichuan in the school. After noon, they would go to the Taoist temple for a walk and come back in the evening.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded: "Okay, you can go and have fun."

At home, Yang Ruoqing and Wang Cuilian were cleaning up the dishes, while Tuoba Xian went to the Buddhist hall with Mrs. Zuo.

In this way, Zuo's mother and son stayed in Changping Village until the 29th, then said goodbye and returned to Huguang County.

Before leaving, Wang Cuilian, Sun Shi, and Yang Ruoqing brought out a bunch of local specialties and stuffed a carriage full of them for Mrs. Zuo to take back.

In front of the carriage, Luo Baobao held Madam Zuo's hand tightly. The little girl's eyes were red, and she was very reluctant to leave Madam Zuo.

After getting along with each other for more than half a month, Mrs. Zuo was very reluctant to let go of the little girl. The grandfather and grandson agreed to wait until the first month of next year, then let Zuo Junmo come to pick up Baby Luo and live in Huguang County for a while.

After receiving this agreement, Luo Baobao let go of Mrs. Zuo's hand.

Only then did Yang Ruoqing get the opportunity to come to Mrs. Zuo and give her a bundle.

"These are two sets of clothes I made for you to sleep in in the winter. My sewing skills are no match for those of your maids and servants. You can make do with these two sets of clothes."

Mrs. Zuo took the bundle with a look of emotion on her face: "The most rare thing is your heart. I like this dress."

Yang Ruoqing smiled.

Everyone rushed to say goodbye to Zuo's mother and son. Blacksmith Luo patted Zuo Junmo's shoulder again: "Drive slowly on the road and take good care of your mother."

Zuo Junmo nodded: "Uncle Luo, don't worry, please take care of yourself!"

The carriage gradually moved away until it condensed into a small black spot in the field of vision, and then everyone dispersed.

Yang Ruoqing came to the guest room where Mrs. Zuo had stayed to clean up the room. Tuoba Xian also came over and helped Yang Ruoqing clean up together. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about their hearts.

Tuoba Xian said: "I always felt that it was not easy for me to be among women. I supported my younger brother to ascend the throne at the age of twenty. Faced with the bloody storm in the court, there was no news about the man I loved deeply, and my children were separated from each other.

…”

"After spending more than half a month with Zuo's sister-in-law, and listening to her talk about her past, I realized that she is also a very extraordinary woman."

Hearing Tuoba Xian's words, Yang Ruoqing nodded.

She had heard Zuo Junmo talk about family affairs before. Zuo's father died of a sudden illness when Zuo Junmo was only ten years old, leaving mother and son to depend on each other.

The ancestors of the Zuo family were a big family, but that was before the previous dynasty.

Although it is a big family, it also has its ups and downs, especially after experiencing the change of dynasties and arriving in Daqi, Zuo Junmo's grandfather came to Huguang County to live in seclusion.

The ancestors of the Zuo family were the originators of the bureaucracy. They formed a faction a long time ago, known as the Mohist family.

Zuo Junmo's grandfather's line was the direct descendant of the Mo family, and it became increasingly declining by the time of Zuo Junmo's father.

Zuo's father devoted his short life to studying institutions and was a genius in this field. Geniuses always have flaws in some aspects, and Zuo's father's flaw lies in management.

Research institutions cost a lot of money, and the wealth accumulated by Zuo's ancestors was almost exhausted by Zuo's father's generation. At this time, the daughter of a rich peasant family in Zuojiazhuang, Huguang County was watching a dragon boat race.

When young Zuo's father arrived, it was love at first sight.

I heard Zuo Junmo talk about his father's appearance when he was young, and he should have similar appearance to Zuo Junmo, so the girl just cried and turned down the marriage arranged by the family, without asking for a penny of betrothal gift, and brought eight pieces of clothing with her.

She married into the Zuo family with a dowry and gave birth to Zuo Junmo a year later.

Zuo's mother is good at business. When she was young, she was exposed to the outside world and ran a small business. The small business grew bigger and bigger, reaching the town and then the county seat.

Zuo's father devoted himself to studying agency traps, Zuo's mother made money to support the family, and the family became better and better. Zuo's father suddenly died of illness when Zuo Junmo was ten years old, leaving the mother and son to depend on each other.

Living as a widow with a young son, she was worried about her family wealth, harassed by villains, and suffered countless hardships.

But Zuo's mother has always been supporting Zuo Junmo. Fortunately, Zuo Junmo is brave enough to inherit not only his father's talent, but also his mother's business methods. He has taken charge of the family since he was fourteen years old.

It can be said that the Zuo family has been prosperous for generations, and then declined for several generations. It was not until Zuo Junmo's generation that they rose again and the family became great.

"Mrs. Zuo is indeed a strong woman. Many men are not as good as her. She has worked extremely hard to raise Brother Zuo to be a talented person." Yang Ruoqing also sighed.

Tuoba Xian said: "As a parent, you should work hard for your children. Now that Zuo Junmo has grown up, his marriage and heir issues are a serious problem for the Zuo family's sister-in-law."

"For more than half a month, she has been worshiping Buddha in the Buddhist hall with me every day. I can see that what she is looking forward to most is that Zuo Junmo can get married as soon as possible. I hope that the Buddha can hear her voice and sympathize with her.

For my mother’s heart.”

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Buddha will definitely hear it."

Thinking of something, Tuoba Xian suddenly smiled again.

"Did Mom think of something interesting?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Tuoba Xian said: "I suddenly thought of a joke made by Zuo's sister-in-law when we were chatting with me one day about babies."

"Oh? Are you kidding me? Mom, let me tell you." Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Tuoba Xian said: "Sister-in-law from Zuo's family said that the more she sees our baby, the more she likes it. He is well-behaved and smart. She really wants to stay with her and watch her every day. That would be great. But it's a pity that she is not her biological granddaughter after all, so she can't stay with her.

It would be great if her family has a grandson. When the two families get married, the baby will be her legitimate grandson-in-law, and he can stay with her every day. Haha, Zuo Junmo is not even married, let alone a grandson.

What Sister-in-law Zuo said was indeed a joke!"

Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but laugh.
