Chapter 3 (26) Sun Zhongshan's Problem (II)
It wasn't until tears welled up in his right eye that Shang Cheng suddenly realized that he was in a trance, and while wiping his tears with a handkerchief, he forced himself to gather his mind and said to Sun Zhongshan: "I don't see it, this Dou'er is a good girl who values love and righteousness." He quietly wiped his damp left eye and said sincerely, "But no matter how good a girl is, Zhongshan, this can't be done." This kind of thing has a law in the official, you are an official and she is the last member, intermarriage is illegal, and serious investigation can only be done to lose the official position for the people. Although I can protect you for a day here, the future Xizhai commander will not necessarily be deeply studied, but the things in the world are afraid of a few ifs, afraid of the word 'serious', if you meet someone who intends to embarrass you, the official is lost, not to mention, even an ordinary dealer you can't do one by one, you are a person who is assigned to the border, and the official can only be a side household in this village every five o'clock and four festivals, and the children and grandchildren have to do it here for generations to do the side household without merit and remuneration, and there will never be a day. Would you like Miss Douer to live with you like this? Even if you don't pursue it, you can't stand it if you put things on your resume, and you are ranked at the bottom of the list for two years compared to three years, are you going to be a benevolent lieutenant and a border army sentry commander for the rest of your life? Don't want to make a name for yourself in the military again? Seeing that there will be a big war in the year after tomorrow, there is a chance to go to the battlefield, two or three battles are fought, there is hard work without merit, and getting a big credit is either an official or a knight, do you want to miss such an opportunity? ”
Sun Zhongshan gratefully glanced at his young boss, who was a few years younger than him, and then pursed his lips and said nothing. This sentence is really thinking about yourself. He also thought about these things over and over again for a long time. He is absolutely unwilling to do it, and he doesn't want to guard a border army sentry chief for a lifetime, but he really can't let go of that woman, and it is really difficult to choose where to go. On the way from Ma to Yanzhou, he didn't know how many times he thought about these things, and he was so anxious that he couldn't eat or sleep, and it wasn't until he made up his mind that he dared to quietly express his heart to the girl......
Seeing Sun Zhongshan calmly looking at himself, Shang Chengcheng knew that what he said just now did not move him, sighed secretly, pointed to the drum stool in front of the public desk and motioned him to sit down, and said, "Since you are hard-hearted, then I won't say anything anymore." Say, what do you want me to do for you? Are you going to be the matchmaker? Or do you want to take more time off? said that I didn't dare to pack tickets, just like me, I was afraid that I would be misunderstood by others as robbing relatives. It doesn't matter if the holiday is now, it's winter, and there will be no major events between now and after the Lantern Festival, so you will be allowed to take a three-month vacation, and you can go back to your hometown to get married, which can be regarded as returning to your hometown. Besides, it's far away, or it can keep the news. ”
"I'm a person who has left the house and cancelled my registration, what are I going to do when I go back to my hometown?" Sun Zhongshan smiled bitterly, and then sat on the drum bench silently. He thought about it for a long time on the way, and finally came up with a countermeasure, but when it came to the end, he couldn't open his mouth anyway.
Shang Cheng looked at his appearance as soon as he wanted to speak, so he asked, "Her young lady hasn't agreed yet?" Seeing Sun Zhongshan shake his head, he asked again, "Don't you have the money?" He wanted to say that he still had a few pieces of money and some valuable things in his house, but after thinking about it, Sun Zhongshan had a large group of old brothers like him, and he didn't have to borrow the money from his boss to marry a few daughters-in-law, so he wrung his brows and thought for a while, "Do you want me to help Guan Shuo change his nationality?" ”
Sun Zhongshan's square face was already swollen red, he nodded, his lips squirmed several times, and he couldn't speak at all. Let Shang Cheng help Dou'er change his nationality, this is the "smart" idea he came up with. He thought that Shang Cheng's status was high, and he had dealt with the county magistrates and county lieutenants of Beizheng when Dujiadian was in trouble, so he would definitely be able to speak, as long as Shang Cheng was willing to come forward, there was a chance that he would be able to succeed. When the time comes, Dou'er will change his nationality and settle in Beizheng, and there will be an archive in black and white in the yamen, and he will not be afraid of any turmoil.
Shang Cheng smiled: "This thing is easy. I have a little friendship with Zhou County Ling in Beizheng, and he can help with this. Just a few days later, I'm going to go to the border army yamen to attend a meeting, you tell Dou'er, teach her to go to the county seat with me, and do it by the way. ”
Sun Zhongshan gritted his teeth, seemed to be making a lot of determination, and said for a long time: "Dou'er, she didn't sell her body. ”
Shang Cheng smiled even more: "Isn't it better to have no contract, you don't even have to verify your identity, and things can be done faster." As he spoke, he suddenly froze, looked at Sun Zhongshan suspiciously, and asked, "You mean, she doesn't even have an identity certificate?" ”
"Yes."
"There's always a guide to the road, right?"
"No, there isn't. Their lead slips fell off when they were robbed......"
"Then, the daughter of the Yang family can't prove her identity? Do you have to go to Beijing to check the file? ”
Seeing that Sun Zhongshan still nodded, Shang Cheng stroked the scar on his cheek and said slowly: "Then the matter will be difficult to do." There is a road guide to prove the origin, and Zhou County Ling can most likely take some risks to change her nationality for her, but now she has nothing, and people will not help her. We can't let people risk dereliction of duty and lose their official positions. He was thinking about the solution to the problem, and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "You just said that the Yang family's daughter's family has reported her funeral, is this a report to the Cheng family, or a report to the official?" ”
Sun Zhongshan said with a wry smile: "Yang Gongdu is an official of the imperial court, whether the family adds or reduces, it must be reported to the department for the record, since he reported to the Cheng family that his daughter died, of course he has to go to the official mansion to register, and Dou'er is also a 'dead' person." ”
It was the first time Shang Cheng had heard of such a thing, and his eyes widened in surprise. However, it is not surprising to think about it, in this era, one person is in distress and the whole family suffers from time to time, and it is impossible for the government to temporarily inquire and investigate the family members of the criminals, and they must all detain the population according to the household register, so the change in the registered population must be very strict, and there must be a whole set of legal provisions and administrative means. But he was also a little sad. The father of the Yang family's daughter, that Yang Hedu, when his daughter fell into the hands of bandits, he didn't try to rescue him, but ran to the government to cancel his household registration first, which was really too ruthless; Even if you don't want your daughter's experience to bring a bad reputation to the family, and you don't want your daughter's experience to affect your future, you can ...... But he can't do things so decisively......
"Does the daughter of the Yang family know about this? I mean, did she know that her dad had hooked her up? Shang Cheng asked with hope of what to do.
Sun Zhongshan frowned and nodded, "She knew when she saw the letter." He sighed faintly. She and Dou'er are both 'dead' people now, let alone changing their nationality, even if they go to the temple to become a monk-in-law, no one dares to take them in. What's more, we are still on the border here, and there is no road guide, not to mention going back to Beijing through the state, even a small hotel on the side of the road cannot live. It's pitiful, Miss Yang is only fifteen years old, and she encountered this kind of thing, and the Cheng family doesn't recognize her relatives, and her family can ruthlessly sell her origin, I really don't know what kind of heart her father and mother have. He let out another long sigh.
Shang Cheng also sighed. Only now can he really understand why the daughter of the Yang family did not commit suicide in the bandits' lair, and the real reason why she was rescued and begged for death instead - there is nothing in this world that is more painful than being abandoned by her relatives.
He thought for a moment and said, "It's not appropriate for them to stay in Xizhai. In this way, I will guide her to the way out, you send her home, and by the way, copy Dou'er's deed of sale from the government and get it back, and I will go to Zhou County Order. ”
"No. When she went back, it showed that her father had reported leave, and the government investigated Yang Gongdu either in vain or in vain. She was a dutiful girl, and it was impossible for her to do such a thing. ”
Shang Cheng didn't have the slightest experience in this kind of thing, so he could only listen to Sun Zhongshan, since Sun Zhongshan said that he couldn't send the Yang family's daughter back, he could only not send it. But West Malaysia Zhizhong Village is a pure military fortress, the 180 people who live are all border army masters, it is okay to take them two for a day or two, but it is impossible to live for a long time, he thought for a long time and did not come up with a proper way, so he had to ask: "Then what do you say?" ”
Sun Zhongshan said: "If you can't change your nationality, you can only settle Miss Yang and Dou'er in the surrounding villages first, and the adults are familiar with the Guan family, see if you can go to them for a favor." Or let the Guan family make a shop guarantee, just say that the two of them are their relatives on the long road, and they may be able to settle down in Beizheng County. ”
"It's hard to say about the Guan family, after all, this matter is an illegal matter of private household registration, and it has to make the family take a risk, and the Guan family is a big family, and there are many people, and things are easy to leak...... Shang Cheng said in a deep groan. A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he remembered what had happened when he had settled down. But it was just a light in his eyes, and it dimmed in an instant. Now that Huo Shiqi is no longer on an errand in the Yamen of Yixian County, and the Yamen has almost all changed its new face, this matter will definitely not help. But......
"That's it, my family is in Yi County, and I also have a big house, I eat food outside and serve as a soldier, and my two sisters are usually helping me take care of the house. I thought I'd just send the two of them over to be my sister-in-law's company. If the household registration is not registered, live first and then talk about it. I'm clean there, and no one dares to disturb me. He laughed and rubbed his hands. You'll have to go and talk to those two girls and see if they're happy or not. ”
As soon as he said this, Sun Zhongshan's brows suddenly relaxed, and there was a real smile on his face, and he said yes again and again. That's the best solution. Shang Cheng is a seven-grade lieutenant, and there are no two people in the entire Yi County who can compare with his rank, and there are two acres of Xuntian led by the cloud pattern and the jade pendant, which is a place where even the governor of the state can not break through, and two girls with no identity background live there, which is safer.
Shang Cheng pressed his eyes and smiled: "Just take advantage of this time to be idle on official business, allow you two months of vacation, I will also put my hand away, Beizheng has a meeting, we will all go back to Yi County, one to settle the two girls, and the other is to mile, if you want, you can pick a courtyard in my house to make a new house, and I will help you do the happy event." ”
