Chapter 46 The county yaman takes the people, and the third uncle suffers
(Thanks to the 100 coin reward of the book friend God Mosaic~)
The business of the restaurant is getting better and better, and the production of soap has also expanded several times, and the Ning family is really making money every day.
Seeing a large sum of money coming into the account, Ning Liang was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
The neighbors all talked about giving birth to a son and giving birth to Ning Saburo, and Ning Liang often giggled all day after listening to it.
My son is really good. Recalling the hard days before, Ning Liang sighed with emotion.
I really don't know how I got through those hard days.
"Second uncle, second uncle, it's not good!"
Ning Liang was thinking about how to find a daughter-in-law for his son who was good to raise, and when he heard Qilang's shout, he was excited.
Qilang rushed into the restaurant and shouted loudly: "Second uncle, third uncle was arrested by the officials, you should think of a way." ”
Ning Liang frowned and said, "What are you talking about, your third uncle was captured by the officials?" ”
"Yes, second uncle. The oil in the soap workshop was running out, so I went to the third uncle to buy some minced meat and bones to make soap, but when I went to the butcher shop, I saw the third sister-in-law sitting outside the shop crying. After some inquiry, I learned that the third uncle was taken away by the messenger yesterday. ”
Ning conscience was cold.
Although the relationship between him and his third brother is not very good, after all, he is the brother of the same mother, and his blood is thicker than water.
Now that the third brother has been taken away by the government, he is naturally very worried.
But what's the use of worrying, he is a businessman with no power or power, even if he wants to save his third brother, he can't do it.
Ning Liang paced up and down for a long time before he sighed: "Now that our family is rich, maybe send some money to the government to rescue your third uncle?" It's just that there's no way, and I don't know who to give this money to. ”
Qilang pondered for a moment and said, "Second Uncle might as well ask the third brother, maybe the third brother has a way?" ”
"Him?"
Ning Liang was surprised: "Does that stinky boy really have a way?" ”
"For today's plan, I can only rely on the third brother. He knows so many powerful sons, and he also has some face in front of the official. ”
Ning Liang nodded and said, "This stinky boy is trying to make new dishes in the back kitchen, so I'll call him out." ”
After saying that, he rushed into the back kitchen, picked up Ning Xiu and walked out.
Ning Xiu was making a string of incense, and when he saw that his father dragged him out unreasonably, he complained: "Dad, this string of incense is about to be ready, why are you dragging your son out at this time." ”
Ning Liang glared at him and said, "Don't do anything about stringing incense, your third uncle was arrested by the people of the Yamen, you should think of a way." ”
Ning Xiuzhi looked confused, the third uncle was arrested by the people of the yamen? How can the good ones be arrested?
"The ticket under the government? Is it a county government or a government office? ”
Jiangling County is attached to Guo County, and the government government is also located in the county, so how to rescue people if you don't know whether it is the county government or the government government?
Ning Liang glanced at Qilang and said, "You can ask Qilang." ”
Qilang told Ning Xiu in detail about the matter again, and Ning Xiu frowned when he heard it.
"It's better if it's a government office, but the third uncle was taken away by the county government. That's a bit tricky. ”
Ning Liang hurriedly said: "Stinky boy, why is it so difficult for the county government to take people?" ”
Ning Xiu shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly: "Dad, have you forgotten that the Lu family smashed our restaurant some time ago?" ”
Ning Liang said with anger: "How could you forget, didn't the county lord take the evil servants of the Lu family to play the board later?" ”
"Here's the problem." Ning Xiu sighed and said, "The county lord made such a judgment not because he was fair and strict, but because he was afraid of those official eunuchs and noble sons. In other words, he had to be sentenced like this, and the sentence was very unpleasant. ”
Ning Liang was puzzled: "But what does that have to do with our family?" ”
The corners of Ning Xiu's mouth tugged: "Of course it matters." The county has been immersed in officialdom for many years, and he won't be able to see that it is his son's layout, but he can't say it clearly. The county must have thought that his son made him sit on wax. He may not dare to hold a grudge against those eunuchs and noble sons, but he may not dare to hate his son. ”
Ning Liang's eyes widened and said, "You mean, your third uncle was taken to the county government because the county lord wanted to take revenge on our family?" ”
Ning Xiu shook his head: "That's not necessarily. Whether these two things are related or not, my son can't say it now. I still know after I get the county government and see the county honor. ”
Ning Liang was a little anxious: "Then what should I do." As you said, the county magistrate has a grudge against you, if you take the initiative to go to the county office, wouldn't it be a sheep into the tiger's mouth? ”
Ning Xiu smiled and comforted, "Dad, don't worry too much. It is true that the county respects his son, but he doesn't dare to do it too obviously. After all, my son has a meritorious reputation, and he has not been a traitor, so the county will not treat me well. ”
Ning Xiu dared to be so sure because he understood the officialdom ecology of the Ming Dynasty.
The civil service group is actually an extremely distorted group, on the one hand, they advertise themselves as upright and strict, and on the other hand, they do things that enrich themselves and steal men and prostitutes.
They are good at disguising themselves, and they cherish their feathers more than their lives.
The official voice is their lifeblood.
Even if Chen Xianling hated Ning Xiu to the core, he would not openly show it, let alone use a big punishment to retaliate against Ning Xiu.
Unless Chen Xianling can concoct a crime, he will not turn his face on Ning Xiu.
"That's good, that's good. Stinky boy, pay more attention when you speak, after all, it is the county lord, and our family can't be messed with. ”
Ning Liang instructed worriedly.
"Dad rest assured, my son remembers."
He had just been cooking, and he was dressed in a short suit and was covered in oil. It's definitely not okay to go to see Chen County Order like this.
Ning Xiu went to wash his face first, then changed into a lake blue straight jacket, and put on a scholar's net scarf, and then Shi Shiran walked out of the restaurant and headed towards the county office.
The official on duty in front of the county government recognized Ning Xiu, and was afraid that he would beat the drum of injustice again, so he hurriedly took the lead and said, "Ning Xiaoxianggong is here again?" Why do you always run to the yamen? ”
Ning Xiu only felt like laughing when he saw the old hen protecting the chicks in front of the drum of grievances.
"This official sent an invitation, and after a lot of trouble, he said that Ning Xiu, a student member of the county, asked to see the county lord."
The official waved his hand again and again and said, "Ning Xiaoxianggong, don't be boring, the eldest master is very busy." ”
He said in his heart that last time you hurt Lao Tzu to be kicked by the eldest master, and your butt hurt for a long time, and you still expect Lao Tzu to pass on the word for you?
Ning Xiu took out a piece of broken silver from the money bag, handed it to the officer, and said in a low voice: "Please also ask the official to make it convenient." ”
When the official looked down and saw that it was a piece of broken silver, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
He quickly put the silver into the money bag, and said with a smile: "Ning Xiaoxianggong is really polite. The little one went to talk to Ning Xiaoxiang. However, the eldest master is trying the case in the second hall at the moment, and he doesn't dare to guarantee if he can't see Ning Xiaoxiang. ”
Ning Xiu nodded and said, "The tired official is wrong." ”
The official opened the gate of the county government and drilled into it.
But with a bang, the gate of the county government closed again.
