The official documents of the Jing'an State Officials Department are issued in two times, and the official documents of Beijing officials are generally issued uniformly on the 17th day of the first lunar month, while the affairs of officials who are released abroad are more involved, and in order to carefully examine them, the official documents of these officials are issued three days later. In fact, this is because of things like finding connections, and the Beijing officials will generally rush to do it in front of the Laba Feng Ya, while the officials who are released are not so convenient. The ancient roads were difficult, and many people arrived in the capital until the Chinese New Year's Eve. In order to give these officials more time to do things up and down, the officials simply separated them and uniformly scheduled the issuance of official documents for the assessment on the 20th day of the first month.

Lu Zhenyuan, like an ordinary Beijing official, waited for the official document of the Ministry of Officials on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, and steadily rose by half a level. The old lady only asked Lu Zhenyuan yesterday to run the relationship well in the past few days, so that Lu Zhenbang could be transferred back to the capital. The official position she asked for was not high, and it stands to reason that with Lu Zhenyuan's connections and friendships in the past few years, this matter should not be difficult to do, so she directly enrolled Zhiyun Zhirou in Beijing, without considering the possibility that her youngest son could not stay in Beijing.

Unexpectedly, things went wrong. Early this morning, the Ministry of Officials sent an official document that Lu Zhenbang only got a "flat" in last year's assessment, and he was transferred to the county order of Lishui County in the southwest. After receiving the official document, the mother and son were both stunned, the old lady initially thought that the eldest son was doing evil, and regardless of the fact that he was still on an errand in the yamen, she immediately sent someone to call him home, and the head was an angry scolding.

Lu Zhenyuan was summoned back by his subordinates on the grounds of "an emergency at home", and before he could figure out what was going on, he ushered in an inexplicable scolding, and he was also angry at the moment. After some arguments, Lu Zhenyuan threw down a sentence: "In the future, my son will no longer care about the third child!" He brushed his sleeves away. Only then did the old lady know that she had wronged her eldest son, and she only went to the right attendant of the ministry this morning to deliver the post, and agreed to visit her in the evening. She didn't care about appeasing the angry Lu Zhenyuan, so she hurriedly found her youngest son to discuss whose hand it was. After taking the map of Jing'an and finding the location of Lishui County, the mother and son suddenly realized that Lishui County is located on the southwest border of Jing'an, and the army led by Jiang Wu is stationed in this county.

As soon as Zhihua saw Wu's mother, she knew that the official document of the ministry had been sent, and she was not surprised at all. Lu Zhenbang's errand, Zhihua had already asked his uncle to help him take care of it, and the official documents were naturally issued faster than others.

Walking into Songling Courtyard with Wu's mother, Zhihua stepped forward to salute as usual, with a dignified and obedient posture, and the old lady who was bent on finding fault really couldn't find the slightest mistake, and she held it in her heart, burning her old face red. Unable to find the raft to get angry, the old lady simply didn't look for it, angrily threw the teacup at Zhihua's feet, and reprimanded: "Evil obstacles! What a good thing your uncle has done! ”

With her eyes wide, Zhihua looked at the old lady innocently: "Uncle has done a good thing again?" Did he send something good? Grandmother doesn't need to be angry, if you have anything you like, just pick it up, and treat it as a granddaughter who honors you. "Recalling the scene when my mother often heard a belly of sneering at the old lady in the past, but she could only go back to cry with a pair of children in her arms because of filial piety, she deliberately misinterpreted the old lady as a person who looked at her granddaughter's property, and successfully turned the old lady from anger to anger." Licentious! What are you talking about? That's what you think your grandmother is? Come on, go and get the family law, and the old body will teach this evil obstacle what filial piety is today! ”

"The old lady is punished, how dare the granddaughter not be punished? I just ask the old lady to take care of her body, and her anger hurts her body. Zhihua recalled the way her mother swallowed her anger every time she was angry with the old lady, and the expression on her face was the same as hers. Uncle often taught us in my letters that our brothers and sisters should respect our elders, and the granddaughter made the old lady angry today, and she failed her uncle's teachings, and it seems that she is going to disappoint my uncle......"

Zhihua looked like her biological mother, but now she deliberately made the demeanor that her mother often showed before her death, and in an instant, the old lady suddenly saw Jiang again. Angry, weak-hearted, and worried about her youngest son's future, all kinds of feelings were intertwined, pressing her chest tightly, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out. "Old lady! What's wrong with you, old lady? Seeing the old lady vomiting blood, everyone was shocked, but Zhihua reacted the fastest, and rushed forward to rub her chest: "Old lady, you must take care of your body, if you are sick, the third uncle should be sad." ”

The loyal Mother Wu couldn't hold back any longer, and jumped out to accuse: "Miss! Just stop it! Didn't you see that the old lady made you vomit blood in anger? ”

Be obedient to the old lady, that is because of filial piety, and she is too lazy to be polite to a subordinate Zhihua, she straightens her face and is not angry and arrogant: "Mom is cautious!" Dare to ask Mother Wu, what did I say just now that caused the old lady to vomit blood? If you don't make it clear today, please forgive Zhihua for being rude, Zhihua can't afford to wear this unfilial hat! "The confrontation just now, although the old lady was so angry that she vomited blood, but Zhihua was soft and respectful from beginning to end, whether it was etiquette, words, tone, and demeanor, even if the saint came, she had to praise her filial piety, so she insisted on confronting Wu's mother clearly.

A mouthful of blood spurted out of her heart, which was actually a good thing for the old lady's body, and after relieving her breath, she now felt much better than just now. Now it has become a foregone conclusion that Sanfang will go to Lishui County, unless he resigns, he will definitely stay in Lishui for at least three years. The people of Limeng have to harass the border pass every year, if Jiang Wu has bad intentions, it is really normal for the border pass to die with a county order. When the old lady thought of this, she shuddered, and didn't dare to offend Zhihua again. "Shut up!" This shouting and scolding was directed at Wu's mother. Turning her head to face Zhihua, the old lady put on a kind face that surprised everyone: "Ah Hua is a good boy, grandmother just blamed you, don't take it to heart." You should be tired from a day of school, right? Go back and have a good rest, grandmother doesn't need you to serve here. ”

Who knew that Zhihua didn't follow, she didn't answer her grandmother's words, just stared at Mother Wu: "Mother Wu, please make what you just said clear!" What did I say wrong that caused my grandmother to vomit blood? If Zhihua is at fault, Zhihua will ask for family law! The implication is that he refuses to let go of Mother Wu.

Mother Wu had not yet recovered from the old lady's sudden change of face, and suddenly heard that Zhihua was in trouble again, speechless, and didn't know how to answer, so she had to look at the old lady, hoping that she could make decisions for herself.

But where would the current old lady offend Zhihua for a slave? Even Mother Wu, who has served the old lady all her life, is no match for her son's life in her heart, so Mother Wu is destined to be disappointed. "Mother Wu, you are also an old man who has been on an errand for many years, don't you know what to say and what not to say? The eldest lady is the master, how can you criticize it? Don't hurry up and make amends to the eldest lady! In the end, there is still some affection, the old lady only said that she would let Wu's mother make amends, and no other punishments would be mentioned. She felt that her posture had been done enough, and Zhihua should also accept it when she saw it.

Unexpectedly, Zhihua couldn't stop kowtowing with cold eyes, and Wu's mother, who said "slaves should die", was still unrelenting. "Since Mother Wu can't tell Zhihua's fault, then the slander just now is the following offense! The old lady has always been strict in governing the family, and the rewards and punishments are clear. Dare to ask the old lady, according to the family rules, how should the slaves who committed crimes below be dealt with? ”

As soon as these words came out, the old lady didn't want to accept it, but she couldn't help it. Now her weakness is in the hands of the Jiang family, so she can only swallow her anger and obey the meaning of this girl: "According to the family rules, if you commit the following crimes, you should be heavily responsible for the forty boards, but Mother Wu is old and can't hold the forty boards" For ......the first time in her life, she was pinched like this, and the more the old lady said, the more aggrieved she became. How could Zhihua let her get her wish? She pressed step by step, and grabbed the conversation without waiting for the old lady to finish, "The old lady is kind-hearted, and she can't bear to hurt Wu's mother's life, how can the family rules be here, and there is no favoritism." The granddaughter thought of a way to have both worlds, so that she could share the worries of the old lady. Today, I will only play Wu's mother ten boards, and after my mother recovers from her injury, I will play ten boards...... In this way, while fighting, you can not only finish the forty boards, but also not hurt Wu's mother's life. Does the old lady think this is a good idea? Zhihua always had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold when she asked the old lady for her opinion. The old lady understood the warning in her eyes, and did not dare to make any more moths, so she waved her hand in frustration: "This is very good, so let's do it!" ”

Zhihua was really happy now, "Mother Wu, the old lady is so good to you!" Don't you thank the old man for sparing his life? Mother Wu couldn't wait to faint to death, and she had to retreat her pants in front of a group of subordinates four times in a row and be beaten, so humiliating, it was better to beat her to death in one go. She could see the old lady's jealousy of the eldest lady, and now she had to grit her teeth and endure this aggrieved breath, kowtow and thank: "Slave thank the old lady and the eldest lady for sparing their lives!" ”

All the subordinates of Songling Yuan bowed their heads and shivered secretly. Today's incident has sounded the alarm for everyone, and the eldest lady, who never shows her dew on weekdays, turned out to be the most difficult person to mess with in the Lu Mansion.
