Chapter 88
'P'**WXC'P''P'**WXC'P' In a few days, Yu Wenjun came over to reunite with them.
At first, Second Mrs. Yu was afraid that Yu Wenjun would come to Hangzhou with her, and people would become more and more wild, so she did not agree, but now that Jiang Sumei had given birth to a child, she was allowed to come and take a look.
When Yu Wenjun saw her, he complained to her: "When I go back to the capital this time, my mother is going to marry me, sister-in-law, you have to help me persuade my mother!" ”
Jiang Sumei was surprised: "I didn't hear my mother mention it, whose son is it?" ”
"Who knows, anyway, my mother said that it can't be delayed any longer." Yu Wenjun frowned, very reluctant, "Maybe it's the Zhou family, maybe it's the Li family, maybe it's the Wu family, there's always one." ”
It seems that Second Mrs. Yu has made up her mind and will no longer condone Yu Wenjun, Jiang Sumei thought for a while and said: "Wenjun, you are really not young, if you don't want to get married, then, if you don't marry for the rest of your life, can you bear it?" ”
"Why?" Yu Wenjun was strange.
"Because for the girl's family, the older you get, the harder it is to pick, besides, you always don't marry, and there are a lot of rumors, your reputation will be bad. Those big families pay attention to these, and small families, father and mother may not be able to see it, who do you think you can marry in the future? Of course, maybe one day, you will meet the son you like, but that's not for sure, maybe a year later, maybe five years later, Wenjun, at that time, how old are you? ”
Yu Wenjun was no less than being slapped on the head by what she said, and he was silent for a while before saying, "I'll think about it." ”
Jiang Sumei looked at her depressed appearance, and she couldn't help.
This kind of thing depends on luck, if there is no one who fits the eye, sometimes you can only settle, in the era of not being able to fall in love freely, how to be demanding?
Unless you have an extremely strong will and are ready to fight against your parents and even the whole society, then maybe you can.
But what will be the end? So even she, a person from the future, would not dare to make such a choice, let alone Yu Wenjun, who was born and raised?
stayed in Hangzhou for more than ten days, because Second Lady Yu always had to go back to the capital, she was afraid that Jiang Sumei would not be busy alone, so while she was still here, she and Aunt Wu found a nurse for her.
The nurse's surname is Luo, a person from Hangzhou, because of the death of her husband, the family is in trouble before she came out to make money, she has given birth to three children, rich experience, after the two of them have seen it, they feel that this person has a gentle nature, pure character, and is also nimble, so she was hired.
The first two of Luo's three children are all older, and the youngest is also more than a year old, just weaned, and they are all brought by her in-laws, so she came to nurse Jiang Sumei's children and take care of the baby.
Jiang Sumei used it for a few days, and she was very satisfied, that Luo was really careful, with her, she was really much more relaxed.
It seems that the evaluation of the nurse is good or not, it really depends on the second lady Yu and Aunt Wu!
At the beginning of May, Mr. Jiang and Mr. Yu both came.
Old man Jiang has already been a scholar, and he is idle at home on weekdays, but now when the weather is warm, he can't wait to come to Hangzhou to see his little grandson, Old Man Yu originally loved Yu Wenshu the most, and his son was naturally particularly favored, and the two simply made an appointment to come to Hangzhou together. Mr. Jiang even brought a cart of things, which were all kinds of gifts from everyone in the Jiang family, as well as baby clothes and hats made by Mrs. Yu herself, customized gold locks, etc.
The prefect's mansion immediately seemed a little crowded, barely able to accommodate everyone.
Mr. Jiang also told Jiang Sumei good news this time, Yu Chaoqing is now transferred to the head of the Ministry of Engineering in the capital because of his good political performance in Maping County.
Jiang Sumei was overjoyed, she had always been worried about Yu Chaoqing's future, and this time she finally put her mind at ease.
However, he can go so smoothly, in addition to his own efforts, the Jiang family and the Yu family must have done a lot of work.
Since then, the two old men have often made their grandson happy, but unfortunately this grandson is too young, there is no way to communicate with them, either sleeping and ignoring people, or crying for milk, the old men feel regretful.
And so another month or two passed, and everyone went back to the capital together.
During this period, Yu Wenshu was quite handy in governing Hangzhou City, after all, when he was a tax patrol and imperial history, he had a special understanding of many situations in Hangzhou, and besides, those who were slippery and troublesome had also heard of his awesomeness, and even Xin Changbo dared to deal with people, they naturally did not dare to pull out their teeth.
Therefore, he is very peaceful, he often gets up early and returns early, spends time with his wife, has fun with his son, and has a good life.
In the blink of an eye, it's early autumn.
On this day, Yu Wenshu had just finished hearing a case and was about to go to the inner hall to rest, but a servant hurriedly ran in and said: "My lord, the Japanese are doing evil in Renhe County, and Wang Zhixian sent someone here just now!" ”
Yu Wenshu was taken aback: "How many people are there?" ”
"It's like fifty or sixty people."
Yu Wenshu frowned, Renhe County is also a big county, and there are hundreds of people in the total number of officials, how can they still be bullied by so few widows? He asked carefully: "How many casualties are there in Renhe County?" What is the intention of the Japanese Invaders? Do you have anything to say? ”
"The person who came fainted, and the villain saw that he had an injury on his arm, which must have been caused by excessive blood loss, and he has now been sent to the hospital for treatment."
He may not be able to wake up in that short time, but Renhe County is in danger, he immediately summoned all the officials to arrest quickly, and then went to Renhe County after preparation.
When Jiang Sumei learned the news, it was already evening.
She couldn't understand very much, how could a prefect have to go into battle in person? Aren't there soldiers who specialize in fighting against the Japanese? Later, I thought of two reasons, one was that the county commander of Renhe County was Wang Sheng, he was Yu Wenshu's confidant and friend, and he must be careful of Wang Sheng's safety. Second, the Japanese were concentrated in the area near the sea, and Hangzhou City and nearby county towns were not among them, so the army was also far away, and Renhe County was attacked, and it must have been to the nearest Hangzhou for help.
But will these would-be robbers come to Renhe County?
She fell asleep with doubts, and did not see Yu Wenshu until the morning of the second day.
His expression looked extremely ugly, as if he had experienced a battle that was difficult for him to accept yesterday, and when he saw her, he eased up a little and smiled: "Got up so early? ”
"I can't sleep well at all." She rubbed her sour eyes and asked, "Did you catch it?" Is the loss of Renhe County serious? ”
Yu Wenshu let out a long sigh.
"Didn't it work out?" Jiang Sumei wondered, "No, if it doesn't work, you shouldn't come back." ”
Yu Wenshu is obviously a person who has to do one thing and must do well, and he will definitely not leave the battlefield without driving out the Japanese invaders.
"I drove away, but there are almost more than 200 officials in our two cities and counties, and they can't even beat more than 50 widows, how can I swallow this breath? Those who want to rob the pirates have also snatched them, saying that they are driving away, but it sounds better, if they really turn back, we may not be able to stop it! Yu Wenshu slammed the table, shaking the dishes into a mess.
Jiang Sumei was stunned and said, "How can this be?" Are those robbers so powerful? But don't the officials also have some martial arts? ”
"Flower fist embroidered legs!" Yu Wenshu watched the fight between the two parties yesterday, and he was really angry.
Those Japanese robbers are not very powerful, but their officials are too bad, and he said with a straight face: "Today I am going to start rectifying the yamen and send people!" ”
"Okay, that's how it should be." Jiang Sumei agreed, "Being so weak and timid will not be enough to protect the people in the future, let alone arrest the wicked." Also, I heard that these servants are secretly doing some dirty things, and the ministers may not be able to detect them one by one, in my opinion, this father-son inheritance, the bad habit of serving for generations must be changed! ”
Yu Wenshu listened carefully and asked, "You seem to have a different opinion on this?" ”
Jiang Sumei nodded, sat down and said, "If the prime minister doesn't dislike me for being lonely and talking nonsense, then I will continue." ”
"Say it."
Jiang Sumei said: "As the saying goes, the tiger father has no dog, in fact, the father is powerful, and the son will definitely be able to do it, like the official Although it is a bad person, it is not something that anyone can do, and if it is not done well, the bad will have a great impact." Isn't it the last tax customs two, almost affecting your future, so the father can be qualified for the office, but the son is not necessarily, I think it must also be assessed. ”
Yu Wenshu agreed, grandfather and father are an example, grandfather can be the first assistant, as for the father, even if he is a county order, it may not be possible.
She paused: "From another point of view, if the father is a servant and his grades are mediocre, but his son is a talent, but because of the relationship between father and son, the son has to serve as a servant in the name of his father, isn't that also a waste?" ”
In fact, she has already involved the theory of fate.
What the father does, the son must also do, this is fate, as a son is born has been destined to move forward.
But Yu Wenshu hadn't discovered her argument yet, and said after a moment's silence: "It has always been a practice for the government to inherit from father to son, but what you said is very right, I can play it in a book." ”
Seeing him adopt it, Jiang Sumei smiled and said: "Xianggong is really good!" ”
"As long as it's right, I'm not against it." He thought for a moment and said, "But when it comes to father-son inheritance, it's also a bit like hereditary succession." ”
"That's different, the hereditary recklessness has made a great contribution, and the official is not counted, but if the hereditary recklessness can also be eliminated, then it will be even better!"
Yu Wenshu laughed: "Without such glory, how can you inspire people's hearts?" ”
"That's right." Jiang Sumei secretly thought, it's just because of these bad habits that how many lazy moths have been bred! But what she wants to say today, she has already said, and she will not mention anything else.
Yu Wenshu held his breath yesterday, and said at this moment: "I'll go now." ”
"You don't rest? There is no rush in this matter. ”
"No, I can't sleep." He stood up and left, remembered something when he came to the door, and asked, "Is Ting Yuan still sleeping?" Did you make a fuss last night? ”
"I'm still sleeping, and I didn't make any trouble, but his kid is in good spirits, and he only slept when he arrived yesterday."
"Like me." Yu Wenshu laughed, "Come back to see him in the evening, I'm leaving." ”
Walking in a hurry, walking like a gust of wind, Jiang Sumei looked at his back, sighed slightly, yawned again, and Cui Yu hurriedly ordered someone to bring the food.
After half a month, Yu Wenshu's performance was responded, and the emperor agreed to his proposal, canceling the inheritance of the government servants from father to son, and adopting the assessment system.
Yu Wenshu ordered on the same day, leaving all the servants he thought were good, and the rest were all dismissed and re-recruited, and the recruitment requirements were listed at ten points, in addition to the original strong and innocent regulations, several points were added, such as literacy and accounting, priority admission, peace and stability in personality, and so on.
He even participated in person, and it took a full month to recruit all the officials.
The autumn wind rises, the leaves fall to the ground, it is late autumn, the autumn in Hangzhou is much more gentle than Kyoto, Jiang Sumei is playing in the yard with Yu Tingyuan in her arms, looking at his dark eyes, she is already satisfied.
Cui Yu came over with a smile on her face at this time: "Young lady, guess who is coming?" ”
Jiang Sumei held her son's whirring hand, turned around and said, "Who?" Could it be that Mother is here again? ”
"Worm Niang, it's me." Not far away, someone called out her name in a voice that was neither light nor heavy, but extremely gentle.
The voice seemed extremely unfamiliar, and she couldn't remember it for a while, but for some reason, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her chest was so stuffy that she almost cried.
She put Yu Tingyuan into Cui Yu's hand, and pounced on it as if flying, and shouted in her mouth: "Uncle, uncle, you are finally back!" ”
"Worm Girl!" Yu Chaoqing stretched out his arm to hug her, and said apologetically, "Worm Niang, I'm sorry, I've been gone for so long, you even gave birth to a child, but it's a pity that your uncle is not by your side." ”
She choked up and said, "It's good that my uncle is back, you don't know how worried we are, my grandmother is always thinking about you, you, you haven't gone to see her yet?" ”
"Originally, I was going to Kyoto, but on the way I heard that you were in Hangzhou, and you were on the way, so I came here first, and I was going back to the capital to see my mother soon." Yu Chaoqing looked down at her and said with a smile, "Worm Niang, you have finally grown taller!" ”
"Uncle, you've grown up too." She gazed at him carefully, the original boy had grown into a young man, handsome, but resolute, like a pine in the snow.
When Yu Chaoqing heard this, he frowned and said, "What did you grow up, I was already very big when I went to Maping County, okay!" ”
Jiang Sumei sneered, Yu Chaoqing like this has the taste of "hairy boy" at that time.
"Worm Niang, this is your aunt." Yu Chaoqing introduced a young woman standing beside her.
Jiang Sumei only cared about Yu Chaoqing just now, and forgot to ask the young woman beside him, and hurriedly apologized: "It's rude, uncle, please ...... it."
The young lady was Qin Jingying, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you didn't meet until a long time, if it were me, it would be like this, and Xianggongben would also miss you every day." ”
Qin Jingying has a small melon seed face, big eyes, and two dimples when she laughs, she is extremely sweet, and she seems to be sensible and generous, no wonder her uncle told her grandmother so definitely that she would not let them down.
In fact, it is.
Jiang Sumei hugged Yu Tingyuan to them at this time: "Come and see your uncle and grandmother!" It was funny again, "My uncle is so young, he is my grandfather." ”
Yu Chaoqing laughed: "Yes, yes, my Brother Ting'er is very good-looking, like you and Chongli!" Then he asked, "Chongli is still working in the Yamen?" ”
"But no, I've been busy lately, and I don't come back until it's dark, so I'll call someone to pass the word." Jiang Sumei called the little maid to tell Yu Wenshu.
Qin Jingying glanced at Yu Chaoqing and said to Jiang Sumei: "Your brother-in-law is like this, I often sit on the stool, and he hasn't come back yet!" ”
Jiang Sumei laughed and teased: "Uncle, my aunt has an opinion, you should pay attention to it in the future!" ”
Yu Chaoqing blushed, and pulled Qin Jingying's sleeve: "What do you say to the insect mother, you are her aunt." ”
"But I'm her age." Qin Jingying said, "Worm Niang, did you say?" I am your aunt, but I can't say anything. ”
"yes, yes." Jiang Sumei immediately replied, "If my uncle bullies my aunt, you must tell me, and I will tell my grandmother." ”
Yu Chaoqing didn't expect to encounter such a situation, and coughed a few times and said: "I went out to play with Tingyuan, anyway, Chongli hasn't come back yet, I'll take a look around." ”
Flee.
Jiang Sumei and Qin Jingying glanced at each other, laughed, and went into the inner hall to chat.
