Chapter 1084 Study Tour
Chapter 1084 Study Tour
Everyone was very happy. Since Zhou Gu was capable, Zhou Guo's burden would be lighter and he could be much more relaxed.
The old man said, "Okay, okay, if both of them go to Yunzhou, the house will be empty in a few years."
Next year Zhou Mai and Zhou Mi will also go to Yunzhou, and once they leave, they will never come back.
Zhou Su said: "Sir, it doesn't matter, we are still here, I will accompany you to the mountains in the future, let the brothers go, anyway, they are useless at home and won't accompany you."
The old man smiled and said, "Okay, when you can break five bricks with one kick, you will go with me."
Zhou Su looked bitter. Although he and Zhou Guo were born of the same mother, he was not as strong as his sister, and he did not have such a great talent in martial arts.
Li said, "You are just lazy. The teacher said that you are more talented than your brothers, but you just don't practice. If you are like your sister, you can go to study anywhere you want. Why should I worry about you?"
Zhou Su was indeed lazy in this matter.
Zhou Guo said, "Mom, his current boxing skills are enough to deal with ordinary thugs. He can beat four or five of them. If he goes out, ordinary people will have no way to deal with him. And Li Lai can also knock down one or two big men. If the two of them go out together, and we are in the north, you don't need to worry too much."
In the North, she is everywhere.
Zhou Su and Li Lai's eyes lit up, "Can we go on a study tour?"
They have been looking forward to this study tour for several years, but have never gotten her consent. Now they can do it?
Zhou Guo wanted to nod, but when he saw Li out of the corner of his eye, he said, "It's useless for me to agree. Mother has to agree to this. If she agrees, you can go."
The two men looked at Li.
Li said unhappily, "Since my sister has said so, how can I say I can't go?"
The two of them cheered and almost blew the roof off. They were going on a study tour!
Zhou Mi and Zhou Mai were very envious. They looked at each other and then looked at Li.
Li asked alertly, "What are you doing?"
Zhou Mai said: "Mom, we discussed it and decided that before going to Yunzhou, we would like to go on a study tour and travel around the north."
It's only in the north. The south is in chaos now, and their families wouldn't agree if they wanted to go there.
Zhou Su hurriedly said, "Brother, let's go together. We'll have someone to accompany us on the journey."
Zhou Mi smiled and said, "We don't want to go with you two guys. We'll just eat all the time and we're too lazy to wait for you."
Li looked at Zhou Guo.
Zhou Guo chewed the fruit, met her mother's gaze, and asked, "Hmm?"
Li looked at Zhou and Mai.
Zhou Guo looked at her two brothers and said, "Mom, why are you asking me this? My brothers are older than me, they are all adults, let them do whatever they want, I am the younger sister, not the older sister."
She is grown up now and is no longer like a child. If she stretches her hands too far, people will dislike her.
The whole family laughed.
The old man said, "That's right. How can a sister control her brother?"
After saying this, he remembered that Zhou Guo was the one who supported the family, and added: "Such trivial matters are unnecessary. If you have to take care of everything, you will be exhausted."
Everyone laughed, this favoritism was too obvious.
Zhou Guo also found it funny and asked the two, "Do you need me to call two people for you?"
The two shook their heads and said, "No, we want to go by ourselves and walk the same route we took to escape."
It would be inappropriate if there were people serving you.
Zhou Su raised her hand and said, "Sister, I don't need it either. We can do it on our own. We just need to bring money. It won't work without money."
Everyone laughed.
Zhou Guo said: "Okay, how much do you want?"
Zhou Su stretched out his hand and said, "Fifty taels, I'll take more."
Zhou Mai said: "You don't have this little money yourself, and you still need to ask your sister for it?"
Zhou Mi chimed in, "You have to take care of everything during your study tour, so you should also pay for it yourself."
Zhou Su thought about it and felt that it made sense. "Okay then, sister, I'll pay for it myself. I have money."
Zhou Guo felt a little distressed. This child just loves to eat. When going out, there are so many delicious foods. How can he not bring some more money with him?
"It doesn't matter. I'll give you back whatever you spent. Take the money you have with you. There are lots of delicious food outside."
Zhou Su nodded vigorously, "I understand!"
It’s delicious, he likes to eat it.
Li Lai likes it too.
Seeing that they had already discussed it, Li poured cold water on them, saying, "We have to wait until after the autumn harvest. We can leave after the autumn harvest at home."
Several people nodded.
Although Zhou Guo felt that it was unnecessary, she also knew what was on her mother's mind. Autumn harvest was a particularly important day for farmers. She was not there every year, and Zhou Dacang was not there either. Others who were able to be there had to be there, so that it felt like a home. Otherwise, it would not feel like a home at all.
After dinner, she took Zhou Gu into her study.
He handed him all the documents from Yunzhou in his hand, a thick stack covered with densely written words.
Zhou Gu held these things in shock and looked at Zhou Guo, "Do I have to remember all of this?"
Zhou Guo nodded, "You have to remember all of this. In addition to the relationship with Yunzhou, there are also the current manor and shop. Who do we have business dealings with? What are they? Brother, if you want to take over Yunzhou, you must read these."
Zhou Gu's eyes darkened, and he said in embarrassment: "Guoguo, you know your elder brother, he is stupid, he didn't study for many years, and he can only recognize a few words. How can I memorize such a thick book?"
He thought it was good to manage this part of the household, at least he didn't have to carry so many things.
Zhou Guo comforted him, "It's okay, just wait and see for now. When you understand it and are no longer afraid, we can take over. There's no rush."
Zhou Gu left with a bunch of things in his arms, feeling dizzy and almost tripping over the threshold when he went out.
Zhou Guo found it funny. He still needed to take things slow. It was already a huge improvement for him to have grown to where he is today.
The old man came in from outside with his hands behind his back, and looked back at Zhou Gu who was leaving, saying, "Sometimes I wonder if you guys have divided up your eldest brother's cleverness. Otherwise, how come we are so different even though we have the same ancestor?"
He is the eldest grandson of the eldest son. How can he keep the family business that Zhou Guo has built?
Zhou Guo said: "What's wrong with him? He has made great progress over the years. We have to give him some time, and he will grow up slowly."
The old man snorted and said, "When he grows up, your next generation will also grow up. What's the point of him?"
I'm so disappointed in you. After so many years, you don't even dare to manage Yunzhou.
In fact, the old man just took it for granted. He saw Zhou Guo rising step by step without any setbacks, and slowly expanding his stall from the north to the south as if it was as easy as drinking water. He thought that the affairs of a prefecture were simple and easy to manage.
