Volume 1 Chapter 58 Farewell
Many people have the impression that the New Year is beautiful, there are many delicious foods that you can't usually eat, new clothes to wear, fireworks, and you can play to your heart's content, etc., and it feels as if all the good things of the year have come together.
Of course, if you have to prepare food, pay for new clothes, buy fireworks, and receive relatives and friends, then the Chinese New Year is likely to become a chore.
Zhang Bin felt that this Chinese New Year was really a chore for him.
It's not that he wants to go to Zhangluo for food, he doesn't have to worry about clothes, firecrackers or anything, just receiving relatives and friends and paying New Year's greetings everywhere is enough for him to be busy.
No matter who comes to his house to pay New Year's greetings, his parents will call him to show up, who let him be a high school jinshi, a jinshi in the middle of the military household, can't say no, there is, but not much, at least the entire Fujian capital has produced him in the past few years, and his parents naturally want to put him in front of relatives and friends, and make a show.
As a result, he hardly had any rest during his time at home, and when this came and that came, he had to show up for someone to visit.
If it is just to receive relatives and friends, it is okay, the problem is that his parents are unlikely to go out to pay New Year's greetings at this age, and also out of showmanship, he was sent out by his parents to pay New Year's greetings everywhere, and so he hurriedly visited the two parents, this is the fourth year of the new year, and he has an important family that must be visited, this is his future father-in-law, Hong Xianchun, the commander of Zhendongwei.
The Zhendongwei station is about two hundred miles away from the Dajin Institute, and even if it is by warship, it will take about three hours, so early in the morning of the fourth day of the new year, he set off with Xiaoyun and a group of relatives.
This time it was Yang Geng who sent him, that is, his third uncle, the son of Yang Hong, the deputy of the Dajin Institute.
If you want to say that his family can climb this family business, it still depends on this deputy Qianhu Yang Hong, because the wife of the main room of Hong Xianchun, the commander of Zhendongwei, is Yang Hong's own sister.
This relationship seems to be a bit complicated, but when a dynasty develops to a certain period, there is a situation in which officials support each other, use each other, and seek benefits together.
Zhang Bin's family affair also has this nature, but in his impression, he has seen this fiancΓ©e Hong Rong'er, and he has seen it more than once, because the Yang family often takes his daughter back to Dajin to visit relatives, and since she was a child, that girl has often followed him and Xiaoyun to play together.
Of course, even if there is such a relationship, it is unlikely that the son of a thousand families will climb to the daughter of the commanding envoy, but after Zhang Bin entered high school, this matter became a matter of course.
You must know that Jinshi is a ladder for civil official promotion, with the support of the relationship network of both parties, his future can be described as limitless, so he just entered high school Jinshi, and the two families decided on this family business, but Hong Ronger was still young at that time, and the two agreed that after three years, when Zhang Bin's term of office passed, he would find a fixed position in the capital and get married for the two.
This matter seems to have been settled, but this time, as soon as Zhang Bin entered the Hong Mansion, he obviously felt that something was wrong.
Hong Xianchun didn't show up, it was the Yang family who received them, and Yang's expression was also quite strange, looking like he wanted to say something.
In the end, she actually left her nephew Yang Geng and asked her to take him and Xiaoyun to play with Hong Rong'er!
Yang's actions are too strange, what exactly happened?
Zhang Bin was full of doubts, and followed the maid who led the way into the garden in the backyard of Hongfu.
It was winter, and there were no flowers in the garden, just a few people sitting in the gazebo in the middle of the garden, as if they were talking about something.
Sitting in the direction of the entrance is Hong Xianchun, the commander of Zhendongwei, and the stunning girl on his right hand is Hong Rong'er, and there is a young man sitting on his left.
Zhang Bin's face changed instantly, who is this?
When Hong Xianchun saw Zhang Bin walk in, his face also changed, so that the two people sitting on his left and right couldn't help but turn their heads to look over here.
When Hong Rong'er saw that it was Zhang Bin and Xiaoyun, she immediately got up and ran over to take Xiaoyun's hand and said excitedly: "Sister Xiaoyun, why are you here?" β
Immediately afterwards, she blushed and said to Zhang Bin: "Brother Bin, you are here too." β
In the pavilion, Hong Xianchun raised his hand as if he wanted to stop Hong Rong'er, but the young man looked at Zhang Bin and narrowed his eyes.
Zhang Bin thought about it, but walked over and said to Hong Xianchun: "Uncle, the little nephew has come to greet you for the New Year." β
When Hong Xianchun heard this, he put down his hand, nodded awkwardly, and said, "Well, the virtuous nephew has a heart." β
The young man suddenly stood up and arched his hand, "Uncle, since you have a guest, the little nephew will take his leave first." β
Hong Xianchun hurriedly stood up and said, "Virtuous nephew, it's almost noon, let's leave after eating." β
The young man shook his head and said, "No, the little nephew has to go to Fuzhou Mansion today, I'm afraid it's too late to leave after eating, next time." β
With that, he arched his hand again and turned to walk out.
When he passed by Zhang Bin's side, he deliberately stopped and said, "You are Zhang Bin, young man, do a good job." β
After that, he didn't wait for Zhang Bin to answer, so he walked out without looking back, and Hong Xianchun actually followed him.
Zhang Bin is so hot, he couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Rong'er, who is this stupid bi?" β
Hong Rong'er saw him jealous, blushed, lowered her head and whispered: "This person's name is Wu Wenjie, he is a talent in Quanzhou Mansion, and I heard that his father is Wu Dunfu, the former military officer of Xi'an, Shaanxi. β
Damn, just a showman is so awesome, isn't your dad just a soldier, and he's still out of office, it's a fart!
Wait, Wu Dunfu, the eunuch five tigers, Wu Dunfu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he is going to take the throne next to the eunuch party!
This trip to Zhendongwei cast a shadow on Zhang Bin's heart, his father-in-law actually wanted to join the eunuchs, and he also looked like he wanted to regret his marriage, which was really troublesome.
At this time, he couldn't think of anything for the time being, so he could only go back and tell his parents what was going on, and let them delay it as much as possible, and wait for him to settle down in the capital.
The next day, he said goodbye to his parents and embarked on a warship to Binh Duong with his entourage.
This time, he was really leaving.
On the morning of the sixth day of the new year, he began to say goodbye to everyone and prepared to leave for the capital.
First of all, he said goodbye to Zhang Cuihua, Xiaoyun and Zhang Guan who were packing up their things in the backyard, and it was a long way to go to the capital, and it was still unknown whether he could stay in the capital in the end, so he didn't bring any female dependents, but just took Xie Zhenggang and Zhang Cha and other nine relatives with him.
Out of the backyard, in front of the lobby, all the officials of the county government have been waiting on both sides of the road, and in the next period of time, before the next county commander goes to work, everything in Pingyang is in charge of the county Cheng Hu Jiang, Zhang Bin deliberately pulled him all the way to the outside of the county government gate.
Outside the gate of the county government, a group of squires were already waiting there, and it was a farewell for a while, Zhang Bin went directly out of Pingyang County from the north gate surrounded by everyone.
As soon as they left the city gate, everyone was startled, because there were already a lot of people outside, and tens of thousands of people were waiting on both sides of the road.
Zhang Bin only felt a sour nose, tears instantly filled his eyes, he walked forward while arching his hands, and only knew that he repeated vigorously: "Thank you, thank you." β
I don't know how long it took, there was finally no more people in front, Zhang Bin turned around, and was about to persuade the squires, officials and Xiaoyun and others who were sending him off to turn around, when the crowd suddenly sounded a voice of "Congratulations to the county commander", and tens of thousands of people knelt on the ground one after another, crying bitterly.
When Zhang Bin saw this scene, he immediately burst into tears, at this time, he didn't know what to say, so he could only arch his hands, make a deep gesture, and then hide his face and step into the carriage.
"Rack", Xie Zhenggang, who was driving the car, shook the reins hard, and the carriage began to move slowly, and Zhang Cha and others on both sides immediately beat their horses to follow.
A group of ten people slowly disappeared from everyone's sight, and Zhang Bin finally embarked on a journey to Beijing.
Will he be able to enter the military department or the Metropolitan Procuratorate smoothly, and will he be able to gain a firm foothold in the capital where the party is fiercely contested?
At the end of this volume, let's see the next volume break down.
