Wen Yue came in from outside the door, and when Er Ya saw him, he said, "You go and call the eldest grandfather, the second grandfather, Aoki, Minghao, Mingjuan, and Grandma Tai and their families over for dinner." ”

Wen Yue followed the big and grandma first; Second, grandma said hello, and then replied to his mother: "Okay! I'm going to put things down first! ”

The second aunt looked at Wen Yue, who walked into the house quickly, and joked with her nephew and daughter-in-law: "Everyone is a master, and you are still called by you as a little maid!" ”

"What sir! It's just a child who hasn't grown up, and I cried yesterday! ”

Wen Yue, who was in the house, heard his mother's words and shouted angrily: "Mother! ”

Erya hurriedly surrendered and shouted at the house: "I'm sorry! Son, my mother's mouth is too fast, my mother is not good! Don't be angry! She shouted to Wen Yue while squeezing her eyebrows at the eldest aunt and the second aunt, the eldest aunt and the second aunt were funny and curious, Wen Yue was sixteen or seventeen years old and an adult, how could she still cry?

Wen Yue went to the water mill and called the eldest grandfather and the second grandfather, and called Minghao, Aoki, and Mingjuan, who were reading at home. Grandpa Tai, Grandma Tai and their family didn't want to call them anything, so Wen Yue no longer insisted, and brought them back with Grandpa first.

When they arrived home, Xiaohu happened to come back from Liujiazhuang, and the uncle, uncle, and nephew chatted until Wen Chao came back from Liujialing and could serve food and eat, and then stopped for a while.

Soon it was the busiest time for the two robbing days, the school had already been on holiday, Qingzhu and Wenchao didn't go out, and there was nothing for them to do at home, so the two of them were a little anxious, and they wanted the court to arrange a place for them to go. Originally, the two of them thought that they might have to wait for a long time this time, but not long after the double robbery, a letter came from the capital, and the two of them finally arranged their whereabouts. Wen Chao was arranged to be a county magistrate in a county that was only a day's journey away from home on horseback, Qingzhu was slightly farther away than Wen Chao, but it was only three days away at most, and it was also the post of county magistrate.

Erya helped Wen Chao and Qingzhu pack up their things, and chatted with Xiaohu excitedly: "You said that we didn't find anyone ourselves." Could it be that Ah Jing's father helped? Her father seems to be in the ministry! ”

Xiaohu shook his head and replied, "No! The crown prince took care of it personally, and let them go directly to their posts, and someone would send them over. Brother and sister his father said; He's been busy. However, he was pressed down, and he thought that his superiors were going to embarrass the two children, but he didn't expect it to be arranged by the prince himself. ”

That made sense, Erya nodded and didn't say anything more. Listen to Xiaohu. At that time, the prince was hit by an arrow in the arm, although the injury was not serious, but the guards had already killed and injured most of them, if it wasn't for Xiaohu to take people, the prince had to give his life there, and afterwards they were burned to ashes, who can know how they died? is considered the prince who was saved by Xiaohu, so it is reasonable to take special care of their two children.

Because of the proximity and the time is very abundant, Erya decided to send Qingzhu to the post with Wen Chao first. After arranging the green bamboo, I will send it to Wenchao.

Sending Qingzhu to take office, of course the uncle and aunt had to follow, but I didn't expect that when I was about to leave, the second uncle would also go over to have a look. Even people bring things, and it is a mighty team.

The eldest aunt may have traveled a lot of distances in a carriage and has become accustomed to the swaying of the carriage. After a day in the carriage, her complexion was still very good, not at all like an old man who couldn't stand the bumps.

Erya smiled and said to the eldest aunt who hugged Wen Fan affectionately: "I feel that you are not tired at all when you sit down this day." ”

The eldest aunt smiled: "The car is shaking harder." The more I slept soundly, the more I had to wake up as soon as the car stopped. It was also practiced when I went to the capital that year. The eldest aunt handed Wen Fan to Erya, sighed and said, "I didn't expect Qingzhu to take office so soon." Originally, I also planned to go to the He family to set a big day after August, and I married the daughter of the He family before this year, but now it is not easy to get it. ”

"What's so bad about that, it's like a little dragon, just get married in office!"

"How can it be convenient to be at home?"

"It's inconvenient, it's only like this, my family Wenchao doesn't have to get married in office! Although he is closer to home. But you can't take a leave of absence to go home and get married just because you're close, right? There's no such thing as a marriage leave! ”

The eldest aunt didn't understand what the marriage leave was said by Erya, but she didn't chase after it, she only thought about Qingzhu's family affairs, Daman was going to come back and operate it personally, she and the old man didn't have to worry too much. This nephew and daughter-in-law is different, Wen Chao's family affairs have to be busy from beginning to end, which is inconvenient everywhere outside, but it will hurt her.

When passing an official road near their house's reeds, Wen Yue was a little excited, "Oops! Later, when the reeds were swinging, we could walk forward to see Brother Qingzhu. ”

Erya knew that the uncle, the second uncle and the eldest aunt had been there except on the day of the opening, and had not gone to see their reeds again, so she asked the aunt: "Do you want to turn around and see what kind of beauty our reeds are now?" ”

The eldest aunt was a little moved, "Why don't you ask your uncle!" ”

Wen Yue didn't wait for his mother to speak, so he stuck out his head and shouted outside: "Grandpa! Grandma asks if you want to go to the reeds? ”

The uncle and the second uncle who were in the same car were also talking about the reeds, and when they came back, they stopped by to have a look. The little tiger who was riding a horse outside ran to them and asked them if they wanted to go to the reeds to have a look, but they didn't have much time. The old brothers could not resist the temptation, and a group of men and horses turned to the reeds at the fork in the road ahead.

The road into the reeds has changed dramatically, and there are many new houses on both sides, and the more you go inside, the more new houses are built, much larger than the average town. On both sides of the cement road, between the large yard where the carriages were stored and the cement road were shops one after another, the doors of the shops were open to the cement road, and people entered and exited the door from time to time. The original wide concrete road now leaves only space for a horse-drawn carriage to pass through guò, and on both sides of it are picks selling things or stalls on the ground. There are a lot of pedestrians and carriages coming and going, but they are also orderly, and occasionally there are pedestrians or vehicles in the way, and the picks or stalls will also take the initiative to move back. In the time they had passed, there had been no disputes.

The eldest grandmother exclaimed: "I didn't expect that after a few years, it will become so lively here, more prosperous than the county town I went to when I was young." ”

"There are a lot of people here, so it looks lively, but it will definitely not be more prosperous than the county seat!" Erya looked outside and answered the aunt's words very seriously.

Although the weather is still very hot, the beautiful scenery of heaven and earth has not receded, and the students and gentlemen here are still the mainstream among tourists. After Zhu Changming got the letter, he ran to receive the big family of the owner in a panic, and some students heard from Zhu Changming's mouth that there was a new branch jinshi in the main family, and they immediately surrounded him, wanting to meet the two jinshi.

Don't get them wrong, they have any dirty intentions, in the eyes of these students, they are the successful ones among them. It's normal for them to learn from successful pioneers, so it's just right that they ask for a visit. Under normal circumstances, as a jinshi, they will accept such an visit, and they will not hesitate to talk about their feelings and experiences, and no one knows what kind of future these students will have in the future.

Qingzhu and Wen Chao accepted the requests of these students without exception, and then more and more students and gentlemen gathered around them. The group that originally planned to leave after a glance stayed in the reeds for more than four days in vain. If it weren't for Qingzhu repeatedly saying that he was going to take office, he would be guilty of despising the court if he missed the time, and those students would still be reluctant to let them go. Of course. These students got a very useful information from the Wang brothers, that is, while learning well, they must also be pragmatic! Nowadays, there will be a considerable emphasis on pragmatic candidates. These students can also be regarded as having a clear path, and they no longer regard being able to endorse books and write splendid articles as skills that can be shown off, but have added a large number of available talents to the imperial court.

When they came to Huaicheng County, where Qingzhu was in charge, the person who sent the official documents to the imperial court had not yet arrived. They had no choice but to stay at the inn for the time being, waiting for the official to be appointed to the office.

Erya was a little tired of shopping, so she said to her son: "Wenchao! I'm afraid your official document didn't arrive so early, why don't you let your father go and wait first, and when the document arrives, let's go over again, okay? Waiting for nothing like this, it's really urgent! ”

"Okay!" Wen Chao didn't say anything polite about your past, he thought that his self-care ability was not very strong, even if he was given a few entourages, he had to ask his mother to help him take care of the house first. Servants must be bought, but everyone is not familiar with them, and I don't know if they can use them easily!

"Mother! Let's buy two cooking mothers-in-law for Qingzhu! ”

"What's the hurry? Now I don't even have a place to live, how can I observe the quality of people after buying it? If it takes a long time, you will have feelings, and then you find that people are not good, and you will be embarrassed to retreat, and keep your diaphragm. How do you say to get it? However, we can secretly inquire and see which slave in this county town has been most praised and appreciated by the master's family. Such people are generally good at training people, at least genuinely for the sake of the master who uses slaves. ”

Wen Chao felt a little headache, there was so much attention to buying a slave, it was really enough!

They only stayed at the inn for two days, and the court official Wen Mu arrived. With Ren Guanwen, Qingzhu can live in the mansion specially given to the county commander in the government office.

Er Yazi asked the person who had inquired before, and brought seven or eight mothers-in-law over forty years old and five or six male servants to do the hygiene, so that she could observe it by the way. She plans to pick four mothers-in-law among them, two to cook and two to do laundry and sewing. Two male servants, one helps the mother-in-law carry things and clean up the yard, and the other is a special gatekeeper.

Of course, Er Ya and Xiaohu also have the people who can be selected and used for Qingzhu and Wen Chao, and these people are all brought over after the assessment of the Wang Family School and the Liu Jialing School and they feel that they can be appointed. Some of them are talents who have been selected in the examination but have not been able to be promoted, and some of them have been selected but feel that they have no hope of further promotion, among which is the old man of the Chen Erjia.

Yiqiē was arranged to stop, Qingzhu was also on the right track in office, and Er Ya left first with her three children and second uncle. The uncle and the aunt are not worried about Qingzhu, and they want to stay for a while before going back. Xiaohu has already gone to the county seat where Wen Chao will serve in advance to help see if the imperial court has arrived. (To be continued.) )
