Quick travel to save a miserable life

Chapter 463 A woman on the run 38

Zhou Fanghua feels that today's life is extremely comfortable, even more comfortable than when she was at her parents' home.

There are no parents-in-law in her husband's family. She takes charge of the household affairs as soon as she enters the house. She is just a virtuous eldest sister. She will move out soon. From now on, it will be just her and her husband living a quiet life. There are several servants in the house to help them. Basically It's almost enviable to say that she doesn't have to do things with her own hands.

Even her mother, Mrs. Zhou, couldn't help but praise her for being lucky: "You have found a good eldest sister. Although she is about to move out, you must respect her even more when you interact with her in the future. Don't be rude."

Zhou Fanghua nodded.

She naturally knows what is good and what is bad. When she gets along with her husband these days, although he cannot be called gentle, he is very considerate to her. He will even give her brown sugar water and gently rub her belly when she is menstruating. to relieve pain.

She had once wondered how he knew the private affairs of these women. According to her husband, these were all taught by her eldest aunt. Therefore, she can have the good life she has now, and she must thank her eldest aunt.

Therefore, after discussing with her husband, she decided that they would pay for the furniture in her eldest aunt's new house, which was regarded as a house-warming gift.

Lin Hui saw that the couple insisted, so she did not refuse. It didn't cost a few taels of silver anyway, so she could afford the favor.

At the end of March, Lin Hui moved into the new house with her two children, four new servants, and two dogs.

The four servants are a family of four. The couple has a son and a daughter. The eldest son is twelve and the daughter is ten years old. They are not of much use yet. They only play with the children and do some errands.

However, in fact, there are few masters in the house, and these few servants are enough.

The two dogs were actually just puppies, only two months old. Lin Jiacheng took them from a colleague's home. He said they were descendants of fierce dogs and would be the best to look after homes and homes when they grew up.

Cuiya is eight years old. She has been in school for two years. She already knows a lot of words and can read by herself. Perhaps due to the influence she received in school, she is also quieter than before and even has a little more patience with embroidery. , willing to sit there and completely embroider a small flower.

In fact, Lin Hui didn't really have many expectations for her. He didn't want to train her to be an embroidery master, but he just wanted to use this to temper her temper and avoid being too impetuous.

Zhiyong is more than two years old, and he is at the age where his hands and feet are nimble and he can never stop.

Lin Hui took advantage of the renovation at home and customized some wooden toys for him. The largest one was a slide, which was installed in his game room.

Nowadays, the objects made by skilled carpenters are really exquisite and smooth, with no wood thorns at all. Even Cui Ya often plays with them sometimes.

When conditions permit, Lin Hui is not willing to wrong her children. In today's world, a person's childhood is too short. People can get married in their teens and take on the things that an adult should take on. If a young child At that time, if we could no longer have the innocence that children should have, our life would be really pitiful.

However, although you love your children, you must also give them the education they deserve.

Lin Hui has now been studying with Cui Ya for two years and has learned a lot of words. She is finally not illiterate. In her free time, she can also read Three Hundred Thousand and some poems in Cui Ya's books with Zhi Yong. , which can be regarded as the enlightenment for children in my own family.

After living apart from the Lin Jiacheng couple, the two families remained close to each other. The servants of each family often gave each other gifts during meals. Zhou Fanghua was very envious of Cui Ya when she saw that Cui Ya was knowledgeable and courteous. She was smart, brave, lively and cute, and secretly hoped that she would So can children.

Having said that, she has been married for half a year, and the couple is very loving. Although there is no urging from her parents-in-law, her stomach has not moved yet, and she is really a little anxious.

Just when Zhou Fanghua was almost ready to go to the doctor for a physical check-up, she was finally pregnant. This discovery made her almost cry with joy!

Lin Jiacheng was even more joyful and at a loss. He could not help but be a little cautious when treating his wife, as if he would startle the child if he made too big a move.

Lin Hui couldn't help being amused by the behavior of this young couple, but she also understood the importance these people with no medical knowledge attached to their children, so she bought a medical book on health care and gave it to them so that they could have time. Read it now so you don't know anything about it.

Moreover, Lin Hui herself wrote a pregnancy pamphlet, which contained many dietary and other taboos during pregnancy, for her sister-in-law to read, and told her not to overeat, lest the child would be too big and difficult to give birth to.

At the end of April of the following year, Zhou Fanghua gave birth to a daughter, Lin Jiacheng became a father, and Lin Hui became an aunt.

It is now the fourth year of Longqing. After several years of development, the imperial court has gradually improved its national strength. In particular, sweet potatoes have been promoted and planted in many places. The yield is unprecedented among all previous food crops, which has saved many people from suffering. famine.

In this way, Lin Hui was satisfied. After all, she had come here and made some contributions to the world, and her efforts were not in vain.

Due to the stable political situation and social stability, the prices of other grains have also dropped, but taxes have dropped slightly. In contrast, the court's taxes on merchants have increased. In this regard, Lin Hui, the owner of the embroidery shop, The experience is more obvious.

Just for food and the like, for those consumer goods that are not closely related to people's livelihood, the increase in taxes is more obvious. Lin Hui is sure that either the emperor or his confidants must have a relatively good understanding of the social economy. That's why we came up with this strategy.

This is how it should be. What kind of profit can be squeezed out from farmers? Farmers are miserable all year round. They have to thank God if they can have enough to eat. Moreover, in fact, more land is owned by those bureaucratic capitals, but it is those who People do not pay agricultural taxes.

If the country wants to collect taxes, it should collect them from big businessmen. Although there are inevitably bureaucrats behind them, it is still much better than collecting them from farmers.

Although more taxes have to be paid, because people's living standards have improved, Lin's Embroidery Shop's business is still booming, with an annual profit of about [-] taels.

For a small store, this is already a good figure. Of course, except for the shopkeeper and Lin Hui, no one knows how much money the store makes, so Lin Hui doesn't have so many scruples about spending money, even though she can't wear enough clothes. Apparently, he is very particular about food and drink, and he raises himself and his two children very well.

Because of the addition of the Zhou family, Lin Jiacheng had more families to interact with. Sometimes Lin Hui would inevitably meet him. Unexpectedly, someone else fell in love with Lin Hui. He asked someone to pass a message to Zhou Fanghua, saying I want to marry the widow Lin Hui!

Lin Hui almost laughed out loud. Now she had two children, her own house and a shop. Although she was not rich, she had no worries about food and drink. She couldn't bear to think that she had to fill a house for others and take care of the housework. Raise children for others!
