For Lian Shouxin and Zhang, the house in Songshu Hutong in Fucheng was just a convenient house where the family lived in Fucheng. Their roots and their homes were also the old house under the archway of the 32-li Yingzi.

People in this era are not only from the village households, but most of them are attached to their hometowns. The idiom of "Leaf Recovery Returns to the Root" interprets this characteristic of this nation well. Several children understand the mood of their parents. For them, the old house also has incomparable significance. It was the beginning of a family's true independent and happy life.

Moreover, even if the factor of missing the hometown is not considered, the importance of the old house is incomparable. It was the beginning of the family's fortune, and the imperial archway gave the family the supreme glory. This glory will continue, and unless the dynasty changes, it will not dim.

Therefore, not only for Lian Shouxin and Zhang, but also for Lian Man'er Goro and Xiaoqi, the old house is also a home and a root. It is the ancestral home of their family and the root of their family.

Now Goro, the eldest son, has married a wife, and it is reasonable for the family to go home for the New Year.

He arranged everything in the house and quit his leave to the Shen family and Qin family and other relatives. On the 25th day of the 12th lunar month, the family left the city and came to Yingzi, 30 miles from Jinyang County.

For Lian Man'er and the others, they had already become familiar with each other. This was the first time for Qin Ruojuan. Zhang specifically instructed Wulang not to ride a horse, but to ride in the same car with Qin Ruojuan.

On the way, you couple happened to talk. Your wife had never come to our hometown before. Tell her how Zhang told Goro.

Lian Man'er was sitting next to him and smiled with her lips pursed. Before Qin Ruojuan entered the door, Zhang told Mrs. Qin that she should treat Qin Ruojuan as her daughter. Zhang was not a person who could speak illusions. She really thought so that she would say that. After Qin Ruojuan entered the door, Zhang did the same, always reminding Wulang to ask him to accompany Qin Ruojuan more and give in to Qin Ruojuan when something happened.

In this way, Wulang and Qin Ruojuan took a car. Lian Shouxin took Xiaoqi to a car, Lian Man'er and Zhang's car.

If it is cold today, the outside is covered with silver and ice. The car windows are sealed and the thick curtains are also covered tightly. Lian Man'er sat in the car and was chatting with Zhang and the other two.

Mom, my sister-in-law married into our family. If you don’t say anything else, just say that you are the first-class lucky one. Lian Man'er smiled and said to Zhang.

This is not the only mother-in-law who boasted about the officials in the entire city who did not give his daughter-in-law a warning or set rules for his daughter-in-law. Of course, Qin Ruojuan did not become lazy or became arrogant because of this, which is also the benefit of Qin Ruojuan.

What are the blessings and no blessings? The spoiled daughter who comes to our house is not for us to get married. When the old lady used to get me to get me, I thought, in the future, I will not do that, I have to treat others well. I am not that kind of person. Zhang said, Besides, everyone has seen it now. The old lady is domineering and has cured us all. But what is the result?

People's hearts are full of flesh, and the whole family is so angry that they feel. What's the point of living that day?

Mom, you said it right. Lian Man'er nodded.

Zhou and Zhang are two people with completely different personalities. They are also two completely opposite ways of being mother-in-laws. Zhou is under high pressure, while Zhang is in harmony and treats each other with sincerity.

Speaking of which, in this era, the male leads to the outside and the female leads to the inside. The female family in wealthy families often stays away from the door. In the backyard of a family, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spend the longest time together and have the most contact. The way they get along directly affects whether the family is harmonious.

Lian Man'er also hopes that Zhang and Qin Ruojuan can get along well and have a relationship. Only in this way can the family be united and harmonious, and Zhang's life will be smooth.

In the eyes of the world, it is actually not easy for Zhang to treat Qin Ruojuan like this.

When Zhang was a wife, she suffered a lot of the anger from Zhou. If someone else was replaced, she would accumulate this anger in her heart and then follow the example to her daughter-in-law. However, Zhang never had such a plan. I have to say that she was broad and open-minded.

Lian Man'er thought about it and laughed. This is a sign of prosperity and prosperity for a family.

There was nothing wrong all the way, and after a while, he entered Jinyang County. Lian Man'er sat in the car and felt that the speed of the car was slowing down. She was about to ask what was going on, but someone had come to report it.

The magistrate of Jinyang County led all the officials of Hexian County to welcome the county lord after listening to the orders of the county lord.

Lian Man'er couldn't help but blink and talked to Zhang all the way. She almost forgot this. This was the first time she returned to Jinyang County after she was given the title of county lord. The magistrate of Jinyang County brought people to greet her, which was not unexpected.

In fact, Lian Man'er didn't like Zhang Yang. This time she came out, she didn't show off her deacon. The Lian family's car sedans still only had the logo of Lian Shuixin's seventh-grade deacon, and even the seventh-grade deacon was not all.

What is slightly different is that the carriage that Lian Man'er is in is regulated by the county lord, but the appearance is also decorated quite plainly.

When I came back this time, my family had already thought that there would be such a thing when passing by the counties, so I had sent someone to notify me first. It was okay for Fuyuan County and other counties, but Jinyang County was Lian Man'er's hometown. The magistrate insisted on bringing everyone to greet him, and this contact was received by the county.

After all, it is the county, and it is also a practice in the officialdom to do this.

The carriage continued to move forward and stopped in front of the magistrate and others. Lian Man'er only crossed the curtain. He asked the magistrate and others to flatten and said a few words of advice. The convoy continued to move forward, and the magistrate and others rode horses or took a car. There were guidance in front, and the rest followed behind.

After entering Jinyang County, Lian Man'er's family still got off the bus at the house in Liushujing Hutong. Lian Man'er first went to the inner room, washed and changed his clothes, and then came out again, sat in the main hall, and was kneeled down by the magistrate and other officials and township officials.

I appreciate everyone's kindness. But I must not mobilize others in this way in the future.

The magistrate hurriedly bowed and agreed, and then talked about building a temple and a ancestral hall.

I already know this, it is absolutely impossible. Lian Man'er said seriously. In the past few days, Lian Man'er has discussed this matter with Lian Shouxin Wulang Xiaoqi Zhang. Not only can he not agree to let the magistrate use the money from the county government to build a temple for her, she also plans to take out the money herself to do something for Jinyang County.

That is to build schools and roads.

Lian Man'er told the county magistrate what he meant.

My family has already set up an open school, but the focus is on enlightenment. I plan to build another school in the county town. I pay for everything, and I don’t have to spend a penny on the county and the people. According to the example of Kaiming School

Lian Man'er plans to open a school in Jinyang County to adopt the system of enlightened schools, but the students are no longer those unenlightened children in the enlightened schools, but students who have a certain foundation after enlightenment.

There is no threshold for Kaiming School to enroll students. The scope of this new school to enroll students is for students who have passed the Tongsheng exam. If there is no Tongsheng exam, they must pass the school exam. Only students who pass the exam can enter.

To put it simply, if Kaiming School is considered a primary school, then the new school Lian Man'er plans to build is a middle school. This middle school will be divided into two parts, equivalent to the junior high school and the high school.

The junior high school department accepts new students. The graduation exam for these students is academicians. If you obtain the qualification of a scholar, you can be promoted to the high school department and continue your studies. The graduation exam for the high school department is naturally a provincial examination and you can obtain the qualification of a juren.

As for these students, it is impossible for everyone to be admitted to the scholar. It would be better if they can be admitted to the juren. Lian Man'er also has considerations. As long as they are admitted to the scholar, they can apply for a job as a teacher in the school, and it does not affect their further studies. Of course, if they are willing, they can also work in the Lian family's industry, which is also very welcome there.

Those few who can pass the imperial examination and hope to take the imperial examination and embark on the career path will naturally provide generous support to those who can get rich.

Lian Man'er has enough confidence in proposing this plan. She has enough funds and sufficient connections. With the successful experience of Kaiming School, she believes that this new school will definitely be able to be run well.

After hearing Lian Man'er's plan, the magistrate and others praised him and praised him.

The money and money for the new school are on me. I am afraid there are other things that I have to do with you. Lian Man'er listened with a smile for a while and then said again.

The magistrate naturally agreed.

At this time, Goro had already sent someone to book a banquet at the Lianshi Restaurant. Lian Man'er got up and went back to the inner room. Lian Shouxin Goro Xiaoqi took someone to entertain everyone for a drink.

There was also a kang table in the inner room, and only a few exquisite and light dishes were selected. Lian Man'er Zhang and Qin Ruojuan had dinner together.

Lian Man'er and Zhang both sat on the kang, while Qin Ruojuan stood underground, helping to set up bowls and chopsticks, and brought the maids to the table to upload dishes. When the dishes were all served, she served Zhang and Lian Man'er to dinner. Zhang and Lian Man'er gave her several times. She waited for Zhang and Lian Man'er to eat half a bowl of rice before she was willing to sit on the edge of the kang, and also took the bowls and chopsticks to eat with her.

Although Zhang is generous, Qin Ruojuan has always been observing the rules of being a wife. This is the case in this era. When she was an aunt, she was extremely precious, and being a wife was a different world.

Whenever I see Qin Ruojuan like this, even Man'er will feel a little moved and cherish her current time very much.
