On the fifth day of June, Wu Fanhui and his entourage finally returned to Mizhi County. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhu Tianlin, the magistrate of Mizhi County, Wu Mianqing, the patriarch of the Wu family, Liu Shijie, a third-class jinshi, and others were waiting at the south gate, and Wu Qingchao stood at the front of the line, and this moment was his most glorious moment.
When there was still nearly a mile away from the south gate, Wu Fanhui dismounted.
Seeing Wu Qingchao, Wu Fanhui did not hesitate, he knelt down respectfully, saluted his father, as the champion of the palace examination, he must thank Wu Qingchao for giving this body, if it were not for Wu Qingchao's persistence and tolerance, he would not have today's achievements.
It was this kneeling that made him begin to truly integrate into the family.
The rest of the people watched this scene, looked at Wu Qingchao, who couldn't help but sob, and didn't speak.
Wu Fanhui met Zhu Tianlin, the new magistrate of Mizhi County, in fact, he already knew the news, Zhu Tianlin was a jinshi in the first year of Chongzhen, and Xie Zongwei, the magistrate of Wenshui County, was the same year as Shanxi.
When facing Wu Mianqing, the patriarch of the Wu family, although Wu Fanhui did not kneel down and salute, his attitude was very respectful, and he did not have the frame of the palace test champion and Hanlin cultivation at all.
It is more casual between Liu Shijie and Liu Shijie, Liu Shijie is the governor-elect of the county, and he will set off in mid-June to take office in Shanxi, and the two are the same year and fellow countrymen, and there is no restraint between superiors and subordinates for the time being, but when Liu Shijie faced Wu Fanhui, his attitude was still very respectful.
When Wu Fanhui accompanied his father Wu Qingchao towards the south gate, Zhu Tianlin couldn't help but whisper to Wu Mianqing beside him, saying that although he was young, he was knowledgeable and humble, and he could see the demeanor of a general.
Wu Mianqing is of course happy, during the period when he served as the patriarch of the Wu family again, the Wu family produced a champion, which is a great glory for the family, and it is inseparable from his efforts as the patriarch.
Nanzhi Street in the county seat, both sides are full of people in the city, and everyone wants to look at the new champion and get some joy.
Wu Fanhui walked through Nanzhi Street, when he went to the Sihai Restaurant, he kept clasping his fists to the people on both sides of the salute, and some old people knelt down after seeing Wu Fanhui, saying that the Wenqu Star in the sky had descended to earth, and Wu Fanhui hurriedly stepped forward to help.
The wine banquet of the Four Seas Restaurant is prepared by the county government, and then there is the wine banquet of the Wu family, as well as the wine banquet of the Liu family, the wine banquet of the He family, the wine banquet of the Wang family, etc., for several days, Wu Fanhui has to go to the banquet non-stop, all of them are from the villagers, and they are now inviting him to the banquet, they are all cautious and trembling, except for the wine banquet of the county government and the Wu family, the rest are all wishing he could participate.
Wu Fanhui will not refuse, this is the simplest reason to be a man, if he refuses a lot of wine banquets, not to mention whether he has made an enemy and made trouble for the Wu family, just those discussions behind him are not good.
The banquet did not last very long, only half an hour, and Zhu Tianlin, the county magistrate, knew that Wu Fanhui had just returned to Mizhi County, from the capital to Mizhi County, and the long-distance journey was very hard, and he needed to go home early to rest, and he also needed to see his family as soon as possible.
When Wu Fanhui habitually walked towards the old mansion, Wu Qingchao opened his mouth and told Wu Fanhui that he had moved, and the new residence was not very far from the old mansion.
Wu Mianqing, Liu Shijie and others have been sending Wu Fanhui to the door of the house, and the subordinates of the family have already opened the door and waited respectfully at the door.
After seeing Wu Fanhui, several subordinates knelt down, which made Wu Fanhui a little surprised, and he habitually prepared to help everyone up, but Wu Qingchao opened his mouth to speak and asked everyone to get up.
At this moment, Wu Fanhui felt the change of identity, he was already the identity of the official master, the Hanlin Academy, this noble title, the shock of Mizhi County is huge, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is the champion, he will be in the future, he is the real master, and this habit of no one asking for ten years and becoming famous in the world is customary, everyone abides by it, and it must be continued.
Entering this new home in the Sanjin courtyard, Wu Fanhui did not show any discomfort, in fact, after returning home this time, he also planned to buy a new house, after all, his identity has changed, and the first task is to let his family live a comfortable life.
Wang Hecui was already waiting in the lobby, her eyes were a little red, Wu Fanhui had been away from home for nearly half a year, mother and son were connected, and she was always looking forward to her son coming home early.
Wu Fanhui quickly came to the lobby and knelt down respectfully for Wang Hecui.
Wang Hecui hurriedly stepped forward, pulled up Wu Fanhui, looked at Wu Fanhui's face, and couldn't help but shed tears.
With a smile on his face, Wu Fanhui gently wiped away the tears on Wang Hecui's face.
Wu Mingli, Wu Mingfang and their personal maids Chunyan and Qiu Ju appeared in front of him, Wu Fanhui was a little surprised, but after half a year, Wu Mingli and Wu Mingfang grew taller, and they all said that the eighteenth change in the female college, the fourteen-year-old Wu Mingli and the eleven-year-old Wu Mingfang have indeed changed a lot.
Of course, Wu Fanhui doesn't understand the reason, this is also because his two younger sisters, because of learning qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, their inner temperament has changed, so it is very different from before.
Chunyan and Qiu Ju also saw Wu Fanhui for the first time, and the two little girls were a little shy.
Wu Fanhui smiled and took out the ornaments from the package, these were brought back from the capital, Mizhi County or even Yan'an Mansion did not have them, these ornaments Wu Mingli and Wu Mingfang had one each, fortunately, he was well prepared, and the two younger sisters could give Chunyan and Qiu Ju some ornaments.
The last people I saw were Li Jiacui and Li Jingfei.
Because Wu Fanhui went home today, Li Jingfei, who was taking classes in the school, was allowed to return home.
After Li Jiacui saw Wu Fanhui, her face turned red before she could speak, and her eyes were a little red, Li Jingfei was a little scared when she saw Wu Fanhui, probably because she felt that her grades in the school were not particularly outstanding.
In front of Li Jiacui and Li Jingfei, Wu Fanhui is still casual, and there is no shelf.
He took the initiative to ask about the situation, including how Li Jiacui's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting were learning, how Li Jingfei's academic performance was, etc., and his attitude also infected Li Jiacui, so that the little girl quickly returned to normal.
Li Jiacui is ready, because the young master said that once she settles down, she will be taken away, and now the young master is already the champion, and he is already a Hanlin cultivator, and he will leave after a short time at home, and go to the capital, Li Jiacui will also follow him to the capital, as for his younger brother Li Jingfei, Li Jiacui doesn't know how many times he has said it, he must study hard, and he will be able to follow the young master's side in the future, otherwise he will stay in Mizhi County, and don't think about going anywhere.
Li Jiacui and Li Jingfei, the two sisters and brothers, have already felt the kindness of the young master's family, they are not really subordinates in this family, Wu Qingchao and Wang Hecui give them the feeling that is the feeling of their parents, and the feeling that Wu Mingli and Wu Mingfang give them is the relatives around them.
It was at this moment that Li Jiacui suddenly figured out that she would follow the young master all her life, it was impossible for the young master not to want her, in the final analysis, she was the young master's person, if she was still shy in front of the young master, it would be unreasonable, and many things of the young master in the future would need her to serve.
Soon, Wu Qingchao gathered the subordinates in the family together.
Wu Fanhui walked out of the lobby and saw the ten newly recruited subordinates in the family.
Wu Fanhui is most concerned about the housekeeper at home, the housekeeper is also surnamed Wu, speaking of which there is some kinship with Wu Fanhui, which is normal, their family is already the most prominent family in Mizhi County, and the housekeeper hired must be trustworthy, in popular terms, it should be his own family.
At the age of forty, the housekeeper looks a little shrewd, and it is definitely not good to be too responsible and honest as a housekeeper.
However, there is one thing that Wu Fanhui is not particularly satisfied with, that is, almost all the people in the family are arranged by Wu Mianqing, although Wu Mianqing has no other ideas, Wu Fanhui should not doubt Wu Mianqing, but the housekeeper who manages the affairs of the family must be a person who must be absolutely trustworthy, and in the future, Wu Fanhui will give the family a lot of wealth in a timely manner, these secret things can never be said to the outside world, even in the face of Wu Mianqing.
So in the next time, Wu Fanhui must work hard, that is, to make it clear to the housekeeper and many subordinates who is the real master of this family, what words can be said to the outside world, and which words are absolutely not allowed to be said to the outside world.
This matter must be handled by Wu Fanhui alone, his father Wu Qingchao is grateful to the patriarch Wu Mianqing, and it is estimated that nothing will be hidden, except for his Wu Fanhui matter, it is not possible to go on like this, a small family is a small family, and the overall interests of a small family and a large family are the same, but in some specific matters, it is impossible to be completely consistent.
The family banquet at the time of the unitary time was very warm, Wu Qingchao and Wang Hecui sat on the top, Wu Fanhui sat on the left side of Wu Qingchao, Wu Mingli sat on the left side of Wang Hecui, and Wu Mingfang sat next to Wu Fanhui.
Wu Fanhui picked up the wine glass and toasted his parents, and Wang Hecui, who had never drunk before, also picked up the glass.
Wu Mingli and Wu Mingfang are too young, and they drink tea.
In Mizhi County, there are very few families who can drink tea, after all, tea is expensive, and the price is not lower than salt.
Wu Qingchao drank a little too much, probably too happy, but in a few years, there have been such huge changes in the family, all the grievances in the chest have been vented, and his son has become the champion of the palace examination, and he has been appointed to Hanlin to repair, and even the county magistrate has seen it, and he has to salute respectfully.
Wu Fanhui was a little calm, he didn't drink too much wine, and after returning home, this warm feeling made him very comfortable, but this comfort would not last long, because he had too many things to do.
