Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

Your Majesty kept Zhang Zijin in the capital and appointed him as an official in the Ministry of Personnel.

It was this marriage that he had yet to like.

Qian Xiaohui asked him several times, and he always said to wait until grandma came back.

Qian Xiaohui and the others could only look around.

Zhang Zijin is 22 now, which is really not young anymore. It's time to get engaged.

That's why Zhao Yuanzhen asked about this matter.

"Mom, we didn't say anything openly. We were all watching in private. Zhijuan, Qiu'er and I were watching."

They had privately paid attention to a few young ladies, but later on, those who felt good about them gradually got engaged.

Although they now have two targets, they are not sure whether the girl is engaged or not.

"Okay, let's ask Zijin later that night to see what he thinks. If he agrees, you guys can decide which one it is and I'll go take a look secretly!"

See if it’s reliable.

"Okay, Mom, I'll go ask Zijin later."

At this time, the little ones all went out, leaving the adults here to talk.

"Yeah. What about Ziyou's marriage? What does she think?"

Ziyou is now a 15-year-old girl, so it’s something she needs to consider.

"Mom, I can't talk to this little girl Ziyou. She said she will never get married in this life and will stay at home and do business with her family. I have talked to her several times, but she doesn't listen! You should talk to her, she will listen to you!"

When it comes to her daughter, she loves and hates her!

I love her for being smart and lively, she is my little cotton-padded jacket.

I hate that she is stubborn and disobedient, and that she always has some scary and weird ideas!

"Okay, I'll talk to her later. It's okay!"

Zhao Yuanzhen just thought that the child had reached his rebellious period.

Anyway, she is only 15 years old. Even if she is engaged, she plans to wait until Ziyou is 18 years old before getting married.

It's bad for a girl's health to get married and have children too early.

"Okay, mother, then I feel relieved."

With the mother-in-law's help, there will be no problem.

"Mom, Zipei will also take the imperial examination this year."

It will be August sooner, the autumn exam is in September.

That’s next month!

"That's great! How is Zipei's preparation?"

"Very good. I think he has a very stable mentality. It should be about the same!"

I already had a brother who won the third place in the imperial examination, and now I have a brother who won the first place in the imperial examination!

Qian Xiaohui was more afraid that he might be under some pressure.

However, after observing for a while, she found that Zipei was still the same as before.

He is still calm, measured and well-mannered.

Qian Xiaohui felt somewhat relieved, yet somewhat worried.

I was afraid the kids would be really nervous so I didn’t dare tell them.

My son has been steady, sensible and well-mannered since he was young.

When I have nothing to do, I sit there and read.

No noise or fuss.

Compared with his brother Zhang Zijin.

It's just too quiet.

Therefore, Qian Xiaohui always kept an eye on her son, fearing that he might keep something in his heart and not tell them.

Now, it’s time for the autumn examination, and looking at her calm son, she becomes uncalm instead.

Even more nervous than Zhang Zipei.

"Okay, Zipei has always been steady, and Xinshu and Zijin taught him, so nothing will happen, just rest assured."

One is the third place in the imperial examination and the other is the first place in the imperial examination. These two teachers with extremely high gold content will definitely teach well!

Besides, they all drank high-grade spiritual spring water. They were in good health and had reached the peak of human beings.

That's it, the brain has been developed a lot.

It's just studying and taking an exam, no problem.

Thinking of this, he turned around and gave some spiritual spring water to the people in his mechanical research department to develop their brains.

Looking forward to their extraordinary performance in the later stage!

Thinking of this, I quickly wrote it down in my little notebook so that I wouldn't forget it later.

"Okay, thanks for your good words!"

"Okay, Mom, let's eat first. Lunch is ready. Don't let you go hungry."

Li Zhijuan saw the maid coming to serve the food, so she quickly told everyone to eat first.

After dinner, Zhao Yuanzhen returned to the yard and prepared a large bathtub in an unused guest room in her yard.

Decided to give the whole family a bath.

Take a soak in high-quality spiritual spring water.

Although everyone in my family is in good health now.

But if it can be better, why not be better!

Anyway, she already has a lot of spiritual spring water stored.

"Xiao Hui, the three of you come over here and take a bath in the medicinal bath. After you three are done, it will be Xin Bai and the other three's turn. Finally, it will be the grandchildren's turn. Everyone has to take a bath. Talk to them."

Today the whole family is at home and everyone is together.

Soak them all.

"Okay, Mom, I got it. I'll go and inform them right away."

"Sister-in-law, go take a bath first, I'll go and notify them."

"Okay, fine, then you go and notify them."

Considering that there were too many people and it might take a long time, Qian Xiaohui agreed with Li Zhijuan's opinion.

She took her change of clothes and went straight to her mother-in-law's yard.

Zhao Yuanzhen had already prepared two large buckets of bath water in that room.

There are also items needed for bathing next to it.

Qian Xiaohui pushed the door open and walked in.

There were two maids guarding the door.

Qian Xiaohui originally wanted to finish it quickly, but after soaking in it, she felt so comfortable that she didn't want to move.

The spiritual spring water washed every pore of her body, slowly seeping into her skin, gently repairing it, removing impurities and some old scars and dullness, and gently nourishing it.

It's so comfortable.

This situation lasted for about half an hour before it ended.

Looking at the dirt oozing out of the surface of her body again, she began to rub the dirt!

After scrubbing, rinse it in another clean bucket.

The whole person feels extremely comfortable. The body feels light, the mind is clear, and the limbs are coordinated and nimble.

My whole body seemed to come alive again, and I felt comfortable and flexible everywhere.

Thinking that there were many people behind her, Qian Xiaohui changed her clothes first and planned to go out to experience the happiness after the medicinal bath.

Later, Li Zhijuan took over.

There are 15 children in the family, including big and small ones.

Each person gets one hour. Sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth graders can ask their mothers to help with the cleaning, so there will be three hours left.

That would take about 10 hours.

By the time everyone had finished washing, it was already evening.

Zhao Yuanzhen recycled the water used for washing. This was high-grade spiritual spring water and although it was dirty, it could not be wasted.

It is still possible to water the trees.

The recycled water was used to water the fruit trees in her orchard.

Zhao Yuanzhen even felt that the fruit tree had grown much more luxuriantly in an instant!

After washing with the high-grade spiritual spring water, all members of the Zhang family are in great health and enjoy their meals.

The development of this brain has reached a whole new level.

Especially for the little ones, it is the golden period for absorbing knowledge and using their brains. It is like adding wings to a tiger.

I believe that in the future, the descendants of Zhang family will always be present in the imperial court.

Even if you don't take the imperial examination, business, medicine, manufacturing, etc. are all good options.

Zhao Yuanzhen is now trying her best to pave the way for the Zhang family and doing everything she can.

Even if she leaves her, she hopes that the Zhang family can rely on the things she left behind to pass on the torch from generation to generation and last forever.

Now we have an absolute advantage in IQ and physical fitness.

The rest depends on luck.

Then, thinking about it, Zhao Yuanzhen filled 30 large barrels with the spiritual spring water he had stored.

Each barrel holds 500L, and she wants to divide these 30 barrels equally among her three sons.

These are also for them to save and pass down to future generations.

He called his three sons over and asked them to fill 10 buckets each in the space.

"These are the medicinal baths you just used. These are the foundation for the future development of the Zhang family. Taking them internally can heal wounds, and taking a bath can improve your physical condition. You should plan to use them for future generations."

"Yes, mother, we know. Don't worry."

"Well, I believe you."

Zhao Yuanzhen went to the village again the next day.

All the technical personnel in the village were given some spiritual spring water to drink.

She also told them that each of them must bring out at least two apprentices, and she would select some smart ones to be their apprentices tomorrow.

These technologies are also the foundation of the Zhang family's economic development.

The next day, Zhao Yuanzhen went to the dental clinic and bought 100 boys who were about fourteen or fifteen years old.

These are the next generation of technology.

Zhao Yuanzhen wrote down the techniques of each workshop, and also preserved the development models of the workshops.

For future generations to use.

Zhang Zijin began to discuss marriage, and the two he chose were the daughter of an official in the Ministry of Personnel and the daughter of a wealthy businessman.

Qian Xiaohui and the others have all seen these two people.

All are good.

When Zhang Zijin was allowed to choose for himself, he chose the daughter of a merchant.

He was busy at court and could not spare much time to manage his family business. He thought that with his wife's help in the future, he would be able to relax a little.

He is the eldest grandson of the eldest son, and has a heavier burden on his shoulders.

Qian Xiaohui and Zhao Yuanzhen both respected Zhang Zijin's choice and chose the merchant's daughter. This girl had a decisive personality and a talent for business. She helped manage many of the family businesses.

Zhao Yuanzhen went to see him in the middle of the night and found him to be a good person with good character.

He nodded in agreement.

With the approval of her mother-in-law, Qian Xiaohui began to look for matchmakers to propose marriage.

The merchant family's surname was Jia.

The whole Jia family was shocked.

According to the Zhang family's status, they would not marry the daughter of a merchant.

Although the status of merchants in the Daliang Dynasty was not as low as in other dynasties in history, it was not very high either.

When officials want to exchange other people's children, even if they have some conditions, they will not choose the daughters of merchants, unless they are of poor status and are attracted by the girl's family property. Otherwise, there will be no such thing.

However, the Jia family was not blinded by happiness.

I just promised to think about it carefully.

They are also a respectable family who love girls.

You can't just agree to it excitedly just because the other party is an official. Wouldn't that be harming your daughter?

We still need to investigate it secretly to see if there is any hidden secret.

After five days of detailed investigation, they found that the Zhang family was rich, had connections, and that Zhang Zijin was a very nice person.
