Surrounded by everyone, Zhang Yue took his sister-in-law and Rou Niang, respectfully went to the ancestral shrine outside the Jiating, solemnly worshiped the ancestors and ancestors, and solemnly dedicated the sword given by the Son of Heaven to the ancestors, and placed it on the ancestors' god card.

This is critical.

Back then, Taizong's favorite minister Wei Juan once relied on this trick to pick up his life from the hands of the first emperor.

He went to the tombs of his deceased brother and father to worship, and then returned to Jiating and held a grand banquet.

Almost the entire pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese in Koteong were actively contributed by the enthusiastic people themselves.

There are more than 400 seats in the flowing water table, and the chef alone has invited more than a dozen people!

Li Zheng of Jiating personally commanded the whole village and participated in the cooking.

And Li Dalang, the leader of the rangers in Changshui Township, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and took more than a dozen younger brothers to help.

When everyone saw it, they had no objection.

In fact, although the ranger has never been treated well by the government, he is not even liked by the people.

But the gentry class liked them very much.

After all, in this world, people can't always do good deeds.

Since they are called gentry, they will always eat people.

But the gentry wanted face and prestige.

A lot of dirty things that the gentry could not do.

At this time, the appearance of the ranger perfectly rescued the needs of the gentry.

From then on, the gentry could sing with white faces, leaving red faces to the rangers.

Things are messed up, it's a house slave who indulges in the law, and the noble X Gong doesn't know about it.

Throw a substitute for the dead ghost and the Ranger led by that one, and the matter can be understood.

This is also the reason why the Guanzhong Ranger power has never declined.

Where there is demand, there is a market.

The imperial court killed a batch, and Guan Zhonghao immediately raised another batch.

One after another, endlessly, inexhaustible, endless.

Although Zhang Yue also saw Li Dalang, he didn't think much about it.

Because at this moment, he is busy moving the gifts he brought back from Chang'an back to his home!

Box after box, filled with silk and silk and gold and jade, and other utensils, were happily moved into the Zhang family's mansion by the Tian brothers and the Li Kunzhong.

Soon, a hill was piled up in the middle of the yard.

Gold alone amounted to two hundred gold.

Hundreds of silk and satin, more than 20 boxes of silk cloth!

Those who look at it are dazzled and overwhelmed.

And the little thing that Zhang Yue bought by himself naturally became the most inconspicuous of all the materials.

But he still took it out, first picked up the silk and handed it to his sister-in-law and Rou Niang, and said with a smile: "This is the fabric I bought for my sister-in-law and Rou Niang in Chang'an...... and stuffed the two boxes of rouge into my sister-in-law's hands: "This is the rouge that my younger brother bought for my sister-in-law, I heard that it is from Gaolan Mountain in Jiuquan County, it is the most easy to use, and I wish my sister-in-law a permanent youth!" ”

Rou Niang received a gift from her little uncle and jumped up happily.

"Uncle Rou bought new fabrics for Rou Niang, how many new clothes can I make......" She smiled beautifully, holding the silk.

As for the mountains of luxurious silk and expensive brocade in this courtyard, in her eyes, they could not compare to the gifts that this little uncle bought for herself.

The sister-in-law took the rouge, but she glanced at Zhang Yue with disgust, and said: "Uncle is too expensive, the rouge used by the concubine in the past is already very good, why buy such an expensive thing......"

But her face was as happy as a girl, and a flush appeared.

It has been proved that no matter what era women are, their resistance to cosmetics, especially luxury cosmetics, is weak.

Holding the rouge box, the sister-in-law looked at the mountains of gifts in the yard, and said with some concern: "Today, my uncle went home to save my relatives, and my uncle's colleagues gave such a heavy gift. ”

Repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with straightforwardness.

It has always been a characteristic of the Han people.

In that year, the mother of Zhu Jian, the king of Pingyuan, died, and the Marquis of Biyang Shen ate his tax of 200 gold.

Zhu Jian repaid with his life and did his best to assist Shen Shi.

After the defeat of Zhulu, he offered advice to Shen Shi so that he could save his life in the chaos.

However, man is not as good as heaven.

Although Zhu Jian is full of wisdom, he can't resist the power.

Three years before Emperor Taizong, the Marquis of Biyang, Shen Shiqi, was hammered to death by Liu Chang, the king of Huainan, in the waiting house in Chang'an, the reason is that Shen Shiqi was a confidant of Empress Lu back then, and my mother was killed by Empress Lu, but Shen Shiqi did not help, and before the death of Liu Ruyi, King of Zhao Yin, and Liu You, King of Zhao You, Shen Shiqi, as a minister of state, did not try his best to save him.

So damn it!

After killing Shen Shiqi, Liu Chang sent people to arrest Zhu Jian, who was his confidant, and Zhu Jian committed suicide when he heard about it.

Now, although Zhang Yue doesn't need Zhu Jian, if he takes someone else's gift, he will repay him with his life.

However, this so-called personal relationship and colleague affection are also based on the basis of coming and going.

Although my sister-in-law doesn't understand any big truths, she knows it very well.

What others give, after all, has to be returned with interest.

Zhang Yue listened, laughed, and said, "Sister-in-law doesn't need to worry about these things, everything has me!" ”

He took out the land deed from his arms, handed it to his sister-in-law, and said, "This is the manor land deed given by another colleague, it should be in Changshui Township, sister-in-law will bring someone to receive it another day......

"As for the other beings, Yi himself will solve it!"

He looked at the kind sister-in-law and Rou Niang in front of him, and said affectionately: "Please believe in Yi, Yi will definitely make my sister-in-law and Rou Niang not worry about anything!" ”

"Well......" Hearing her uncle's words so explicit and full of hot emotions, her sister-in-law suddenly became a little flustered, put away the deed handed over by Zhang Yue, and pulled Zhao Rouniang, took the Tian Li brothers, and commanded them to move these gold pearls and jade and silk silk into the inner house.

Inside, it is as if soaked in honey, sweet and peaceful.

Zhang Yue looked at the figure of his sister-in-law, and there was still a warm touch between his fingers that the other party had touched when he took the deed.

His heart is also filled with warmth and happiness.

……………………………………

On that day, the entire Jiating was in continuous laughter.

The squires from the entire Changshui Township and the people from several surrounding villages and pavilions all came to Jiating for a banquet.

Everyone ate enough to eat and drink, and it was not until dusk that they dispersed.

Zhang Yue sent the three elders and the squires all the way to the entrance of the village, and waited for them to leave before returning to Jiating.

"Tian He......" Zhang Yue called his retainers and instructed: "Go and prepare silk cloth for me, as a gift bag, one horse for each family, add two additional horses for those who produce pigs and sheep, and add another horse for those who are familiar with my family......"

"No!" Tian He took the order and left.

It didn't take long for the silk cloth to be packed.

Zhang Yue then took the Tian Li brothers, holding these silk cloths, and went door to door to visit the people of Jiating.

Every time he went to a house, he personally bowed and thanked him, and then presented a silk cloth and said: "Thanks to my uncle's care in the past, the boy is not grateful, and it is not a respect......

And this farmer, naturally flattered, hurriedly thanked the family, let the family accept the gift, grateful, in the heart of Zhang Yue's evaluation has also increased several levels, feel that this noble person in the same village, although fortunately, but still respectful and polite, in front of the neighbors do not put on a show!

Sixty-seven peasant households in Jiating, Zhang Yue came to thank them one by one.

When he walked to the door of Wang Da's family, he saw that the door was closed, and there was silence in the house.

Zhang Yue then remembered that the family was all in the prison of the Jinwu Yamen.

I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in this life.

Maybe in a few days, even this house will be confiscated by the government, and then a family of landless people in Guanzhong may be selected, move here to live, and get a part of Wang Da's land.

The rest will be used as public land.

But Zhang Yue didn't have any sympathy for their family.

Because, if they succeed.

It's yourself who is miserable, and your fate will be even worse than theirs!

Especially the sister-in-law and Rou Niang, who will be implicated and implicated by themselves.

"It's more than innocent to die!" Zhang Yue said coldly, and took the Tian Li brothers to bypass the Wang family.

After thanking them one by one, when they arrived at Tian Chang and Li San's house, it was a different situation.

Tian Chang and Li San, with their wives at home, had been waiting at the door for a long time, and they were grateful to Zhang Yue for their family's gambling success!

Today, Zhang Yue is expensive, and their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!

The future of the sons no longer needs them to worry.

Just this afternoon, several gentry from Changshui Township quietly sent someone to inform: Wen Gong has Lin'er, he is 20 years old, loyal and strict, I have a daughter, 15 years old, gentle and gentle, if the public does not give up, I am willing to take the ...... of a wife

This kind of good thing, they couldn't have dreamed of before.

Now it's happening right in front of our eyes.

And all of this is brought by the young master in front of him, the master of his own family who has served for decades.

Zhang Yue doesn't put on a stand in front of outsiders, and in front of his own people, he is even more cordial.

Let the Tian Li brothers kowtow to their father and thank them for their nurturing.

He also sent silk cloth, and then told them that in order to thank the Tian family and the Li family for their perseverance over the years, Zhang Yue had decided to exempt their family from the tax on the land they rented.

In other words, they don't want their rent!

This decision, for today's Zhang Yue, is naturally nothing to worry about.

But for the Tian and Li families, it is a god-like kindness.

The absence of tenant rent means that the family can save more savings.

With savings, you can buy farming tools and grains, forming a virtuous circle.

When the Tian Li brothers heard this, they were very grateful to Zhang Yue, and Zhang Yue wanted this.

He is about to go to Xinfeng to take office, and the big and small affairs of the family need these retainers to work hard to maintain.

The most important thing is that the manor sent by the Storm Victory, if you want to manage and take care of it well, the efforts of these retainers are indispensable.

For the future of that Zhuangzi, Zhang Yue already had a preliminary plan.

From Guo Sui, he got dozens of cotton seedlings, which had been transplanted into the space and planted.

In addition, I also got some alfalfa grass from the Han family's pasture.

In the future, improved cotton and alfalfa grass can be planted on that estate.

As long as you succeed, you don't have to worry about running out of money!
