This restaurant in Wanzhou County uses rice from the Zhou family. The rice is plump and tastes fragrant, so business is very good.
When the restaurant owner saw that it was the owner of the Zhou family, he immediately greeted them, took them to the best box in the restaurant, and served them the most expensive dishes in the restaurant.
In order to avoid suspicion, Zhou Ruiyuan asked them to withdraw all the dishes and make a few ordinary dishes instead.
Qu Wenzhi looked in great admiration. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he called Brother Zhou one by one, "It is a blessing for Cheng'an County to have a magistrate like Brother Zhou in Cheng'an County. I will learn more from Brother Zhou in the future." ." ?.?????.???
Zhou Ruiyuan replied: "I have just taken office, I should learn more from Lord Qu."
The two complimented each other, and in the afternoon, Zhou Ruiyuan and Du Wanchun set off back to Cheng'an County.
Before leaving, Qu Wenzhi also mentioned that the person he admired happened to be in Changliu Village and there would be many opportunities to see him again in the future.
Du Wanchun smiled and left in a carriage with Zhou Ruiyuan.
The next day.
Du Wanchun took a look at the account books of Xiangpu and Mipu today. All the property of their Zhou family, excluding the accounts of Zhou Feng in the capital, totaled 30,000 taels of gold. This amount was rare in the entire Qingzhou Prefecture.
Even the Fang family, a wealthy businessman in the past, took ten years to accumulate so much property.
The Zhou family has only been together for just over a year.
Not only that, Aunt Zhou and Du Wanchun have always been wealthy but do not show their wealth. The family still lives in a small house in Sanjin, Changliu Village.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have bought a three-bedroom house in Cheng'an County long ago.
Du Wanchun rarely wore gold or silver when she went out on weekdays. On her head was the red hairpin that Zhou Ruiyuan gave her in the past. It looked good-looking but not eye-catching.
It is because of this that people in the nearby villages still don't know how wealthy the Zhou family is, and they only think that they are still small traders in the past, which is why Chu Matchmaker came up.
But things are better now. Regardless of whether the Zhou family is rich or not, now that the Zhou family has a county magistrate, no one dares to bully them anymore.
Even Aunt Wang, Zhang Qiuhe, Madam Xu, and Du Wanchun's aunt, who usually followed the Zhou family, also followed suit.
The matchmakers who came to Aunt Wang's house recently almost broke down their door.
This time it was Matchmaker Liu who came to be a matchmaker for Aunt Wang’s family, Wang Qiu.
This matchmaker Liu was the matchmaker who led Du Wanchun into the Zhou family.
Before looking for Aunt Wang, she first came to find Du Wanchun.
"Wang Chun, you are now the county magistrate's wife." She waved the fan in her hand, with a smile on her face.
Du Wanchun poured her a cup of tea, "Thanks to Aunt Liu for this."
Matchmaker Liu held the cup and said with a smile: "Thank you, no need. If you can live well, I will feel at ease."
She rolled her eyes as she spoke, and finally said: "Wan Chun, I have a niece who is also sixteen this year. She matches the age of your aunt Wang Qiu's family."
Wang Qiu happens to be twenty years old, the right age for marriage.
When Du Wanchun heard what she said, he probably guessed something and said with a smile: "Aunt Liu, you may need to ask Wang Qiu personally to see if he is willing."
Matchmaker Liu sighed and said, "I just asked Wang Qiu, so I came to see you Wan Chun."
Du Wanchun pretended to be confused and said, "What did Wang Qiu say?"
Matchmaker Liu looked outside the door and whispered: "Wang Qiu said he has someone he likes. I saw that he has been getting close to Zhang Qiuhe recently, maybe he has fallen in love with this Qiuhe."
