Chapter 554: Rewarding Freshness
Woman Liu secretly hated and chatted with Wen Chun: "Lord Zhixian, he is old, he is a person who doesn't want to do things later, he is already like this anyway." But he should also think about the people below, the people below, who have followed him for so many years, not to mention loyalty or disloyalty, if he has a heart, he should have a good fate, instead of exhausting those fates at once.
In the past month, for the sake of his family's big and small, my man's monthly income has been used up, and now my family's livelihood is my needlework expenses. "The magistrate will retire this winter, and the news from above has been spread, and the candidate will be sent down directly. Indeed, after the news came down, there were more things in the family of the magistrate, and there were more birthdays that had not been celebrated in previous years. Mrs. Zhixian arranged to celebrate her birthday in advance, saying that it was a hot day, and the guests would be some time in advance. On that day, Wen Chunyi accompanied Zhong Chichun to the home of the county magistrate to celebrate his birthday.
The courtyard of the magistrate is still full of flowers, but no matter how you look at it, those flowers have some traces of frost. And Mrs. Zhixian is even more old, she looks at the guests, and there is always an embarrassed look in her eyes. After Wen Chunyi congratulated her, she smiled and said, "Young Grandma Zhong, I see that after you give birth to a child, your appearance is brighter than before. Her words attracted a lot of scrutiny, Wen Chunyi is not the kind of person who likes to go out, and she doesn't like to socialize. There are famous wives in the small town of China, and she has almost never really come into contact with them.
Wen Chunyi could feel the friendliness of Mrs. Zhixian, but she didn't want to grab connections with the successor Mrs. Zhixian. She smiled indifferently and said, "Madam, I see that you look much older than before, and I think it is because of the filial piety of your children and grandchildren, and you are in a good mood." "Since everyone loves high hats, Wen Chunyi doesn't mind giving Mrs. Zhixian a high hat that suits her heart. Mrs. Zhixian smiled sincerely, and she said with a smile: "Originally, the children said that they would come to celebrate my birthday, but I didn't have to let them come. In a few days I will go to them to spend my days, and when I am on the right day, I will eat with them and celebrate. In the future, I will not have the opportunity to meet with you very often. ”
The news revealed by Mrs. Zhixian shocked everyone present, she was unwilling to accompany Lord Zhixian for the last few months in office? However, the people present were all mature people, and everyone quickly restrained the shocked expressions on their faces, and congratulated Mrs. Zhixian with a smile on her filial children and grandchildren. After Wen Chunyi went back, he mentioned to Zhong Chichun that Mrs. Zhixian was going to leave the small town of Chinan, and after hearing this, he muttered a little and said: "Eighteen, when Mrs. Zhixian leaves, if there is a farewell banquet, I will refuse to go out for you in the name of the child is still young, okay?" Wen Chunyi nodded happily, she would rather spend more time with her children.
Before leaving, Mrs. Zhixian held a farewell banquet, and most of the Liu women went. Afterwards, Mrs. Liu sighed and said to her: "Mrs. Zhixian is a rare virtuous lady, there are not many things, and she treats us peacefully, but her life is not very good." I looked at her obviously unhappy, but I had to greet us with a smile on her face. She also asked you to come back and greet you when she knew that you had to stay at home because your children were too young. Wen Chunyi sighed, as soon as Mrs. Zhixian left, the behavior of the county magistrate became even more unrestrained.
The turmoil after Zhong Chichun took over finally calmed down, and Zhong Zhai calmed down again. Wen Chunyi doesn't have to deal with the women who come to the door under various names. Zhong Chichun followed with a light sulk, and the wind blew that the county lord directly regarded him as a thorn in his side, and now that he knew that it had nothing to do with him, he regained his face and affection. It's just this kind of intimate affection, Zhong Chichun feels more and more unbearable. Zhong Chichun looked irritable, and whispered to Wen Chunyi: "I want to think of a way to push the banquet of Lord Zhixian again and again, he can not think about his children and grandchildren, and only think about his last happiness."
But I don't want me and the people below to be dragged down by him to fame one by one, so I follow him every day to entertain some irrelevant people. Wen Chunyi's eyebrows moved, and he whispered: "Next time you go, let people bring the letter back, I let people think that I am not in good health, and directly stop you back." Zhong Chichun stretched out his hand and patted her face gently, and said, "It's not proper, you can do this at once, but you can't use it several times in a row, and it's not good for your reputation." I thought clearly, next time I politely rejected him on official business. As for those below me, they have followed him for so many years, and it is up to them to choose their own path. ”
Wen Chunyi sighed softly and said: "Lord Zhixian originally had a good official reputation in the small town of China, but when he came to such a bad thing, is he going to fish for the last one?" Zhong Chichun's eyebrows moved, he helped Wen Chunyi to sit up, and said, "You reminded me, I'll go to see Mr. Yijian." "The two staff gentlemen usually stay late in the outer courtyard, and they often don't even return home, only waiting for Zhong Chichun to return to discuss things, and they can find someone in time. After Wen Chunyi secretly thought about it, he discussed with Zhong Chichun and said that if he changed places in the future, he must live in the compound a few times, so that he and his family can be properly settled.
When June came, the magistrate held a feast to promote the vegetables of the farmer. The daytime banquet was held in a courtyard outside the city, which was the courtyard of the three-rank official Tian Da, who had retired from the court. In the morning, Zhong Chichun took Wen Xiujun and the two young masters to the banquet together, and the four of them came back in the evening, and the four of them were full of energy. Wen Xiujun told Wen Chunyi about the fresh banquet, and what he appreciated was fresh dishes, all of which were farmhouse specialties and vegetables. The two young masters especially praised Lord Tian's courtyard, saying that it was very idyllic, and on such a hot day, the wind in the courtyard was very cool.
The four of them also bought a bunch of vegetables and vegetables by the way, and Fang Chengjia and Yuanzhou hurriedly went to deal with them, and ate fresh vegetables and vegetables when they prepared dinner. Zhong Chichun said to Wen Chunyi, who had an amazed look on his face: "Compared with many people who go together, the four of them can only be regarded as people who don't buy much vegetables. Some people used a cart to pull a cart of farm vegetables home. Wen Chunyi listened to the introduction of the four of them, and felt that when the magistrate was not impulsive, selfish or greedy, he was also an official who was willing to think about the people. After Zhong Chichun heard Wen Chunyi's comment, he smiled mockingly and said: "Mrs. Zhixian can't persuade Lord Zhixian to act, but she will think about her children and grandchildren, and she will not condone Lord Zhixian to act willfully and recklessly."
