Chapter 697: This is a great joy

"Master Sun!"

"No Gifts, No Gifts, No Gifts......"

Master Sun smiled and nodded, got off the carriage, and greeted Li Zheng and the others warmly, "Sun Mou is here today to have a lively time, to be happy, everyone don't have to be rigid, just receive your heroes!" ”

Looking at this Lord Sun's appearance, he was extremely kind, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, so it was easier to deal with.

Everyone's eyes turned to Liao Qing, and Liao Qing also got out of the car, walked in front of everyone, and greeted Lao Xu's family one by one.

"Good! That's great! ”

Xu Zhang's old face smiled, and there was a trace of regret, but unfortunately the old man was delirious, how happy he would be if he could see this scene.

Xu Jiaojiao and Liao Qing glanced at each other, there were too many people, and the two just greeted each other briefly, and they were overwhelmed by everyone's gossip.

There were already forty or fifty onlookers, and everyone came forward to congratulate them with smiling faces, and Liao Qing was overwhelmed.

However, Xu Li is helping him out of the siege.

"Alright, alright! Everyone get out of the way, Master Sun still has something to say! ”

Everyone hurriedly stopped.

Master Sun coughed and said in a loud voice: "Everyone! In this year's college exam, Liao Qing High School is the first in the county, that is, the first place in Xiucai! This is a great happy event, the glory of the old Xu family, the glory of Xujia Village, and the glory of Qingshui Town! The county lord appreciated his talent, and gave him thirty taels of silver, two shirts, and two square scarves! This town should also be rewarded, and ten taels of silver will be given! In addition, there is a silver rice offering every year, and it will be given today! ”

With that, he waved his hand and ordered the messenger to bring things up.

The first thing to be sent was an indigo long box, the messenger opened it to Liao Qing, Xu Jiaojiao was looking at it from the side, it was five neatly stacked small ingots, each with a round belly standing up, looking very auspicious, plus two small ingots.

This should be...... Fifty-two taels of silver? Xu Jiaojiao guessed.

The onlookers stretched out their heads one by one, looked into the box, and when they saw a piece of silver and white in the sun, especially the five ingots, they all exclaimed.

This kind of ingot-like silver is official silver, full of weight, and it is indeed rare in the countryside.

And fifty-two taels of silver are enough to make people marvel. You must know that in the past, the annual income of the old Xu family was less than twenty taels of silver!

Liao Qing accepted all these silver, and handed them to Xu Jiaojiao.

Xu Jiaojiao was holding a somewhat heavy box, and she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart, the husband she was looking for seemed to be eating the official family's meal! Iron rice bowl!

The second one was given two sets of clothes and uniforms.

Then all the servants began to carry bags from the carriage, bag by bag to Lao Xu's family, and later several strong laborers of Lao Xu's family also helped carry them.

Looking at the few people back and forth, Xu Li was as curious as the people around him, "Lord Sun, these are ......"

"These are the rice." Master Sun smiled and said, "It's the food that you deserve for a year, which is 360 liters. ”

The villagers also heard it clearly, and there was another burst of exclamation, this kind of thing, the same reward, opened their eyes, and a few people even had red eyes.

There is a saying that "wealth is not exposed", but Lord Sun doesn't care.

What the government gave was official silver, which was marked, and the distribution of each ingot of official silver was recorded.

If you don't open your eyes and steal this scarce official silver to spend it, then people will suspect you, where did you get the official silver? If you don't figure it out, people don't dare to accept it, for fear of lawsuits.

That's right, you have to be qualified to spend money, that's the reason.

After the things were moved, Mr. Sun took out a plaque from the car, and the left and right officers tore off the protective seal, Xu Jiaojiao took a look, this plaque has a dark mahogany bottom, and there are four big characters on it: Shazhou case!

Master Sun: "The official can't take out anything good, let's make a plaque and give it to the head of Liao's case, I hope you don't want to dislike it!" ”

Liao Qing hurriedly surrendered his hand: "The adults have a heart, the students thank you!" "No matter how good or bad things are, this is a private gift from Master Sun, and you have to receive this love.

"Hang on, hang on!"

In the coaxing of everyone, the plaque was soon hung on the lintel, and the first four words of the gold-pasted sandbar case shone brightly in the sun, which was particularly dazzling.

Everyone stared at it and looked at it, this kind of thing is rare in Xujia Village, strictly speaking, it has never been there.

"Alas...... Alas......"

An old man stared at the plaque and sighed, sighing for a long time.

"Old man Liao, what do you mean, this plaque is not good?" Xu Jia Village saw it and was very dissatisfied, "Or do you have an opinion on Lord Sun sending a plaque?" ”

"Uh, no, no, no, this plaque is very good, very good, and the old man doesn't dare to have an opinion." Liaojia Village hurriedly denied it, "The old man is thinking, this plaque should have been hung in my Liaojia Village......"

"!" Xu Li was not polite to him, someone had already made a small report to him, and this old guy was ready to cut off his beard in the middle of the road, "If you want to be in your Liaojia Village, don't talk about the head of the case, there are no children!" Old man, do you think that you are old, thick-skinned, and blushing, and you are not afraid of being seen? ”

"You ......" Liao Lizheng was very angry, but he had nothing to refute, only said: "Old guy, be polite, you can be so small as the old man, your face is not thin, right?" ”

"Whether it's thin or not, the old man still wants it, unlike you, don't want it at all, hum!"

"Humph!"

The voices of the two were very low, and Master Sun was in front, so they didn't dare to talk loudly, and it couldn't affect everyone's emotions.

Xu Jiaojiao looked at the plaque and had some thoughts in her heart.

Fortunately, this is posted in the courtyard of the second entrance, if it is pasted on the front gate, then wouldn't people who come and go on the road see it? She is not the kind of flamboyant person, if she really wants to be like that, she will think that it is simply a boast of Chi Guoguo. And now it's good, if you don't go into the yard, you won't see this plaque.

After doing this, at Xu Lizheng's suggestion, everyone took sacrifices and went to the ancestral shrine of the Xu family.

The ancestral ancestral hall of the Xu family has been repaired by Xu Jiaojiao last time, and it looks brand new, clean and bright.

"Sure enough, it is extraordinary, the Xu family should be very happy!"

Master Sun nodded in praise.

Hearing Lord Sun's words, the Xu family was happier and happier. Xu Zhang's is a pity that Xu Youde can't hear it, otherwise, no one will be happier than him.

"Thank you for your kind words!"

Xu Lizheng was naturally happy, asked people to open the door, set up the offerings, and asked people to take a big red paper and brush, and asked Lord Sun to help write a notice.

Master Sun did not shirk, took the pen, thought about it for a while, dipped it in ink, and wrote down a few words: On October 16, the 45th year of Daxiang, the 26th son-in-law of the Xu family, Liao Qing High School, was the head!

After writing, Xu Lizheng took it with his own hands, brushed it with paste, and pasted it on the pillar. There is still a piece of red paper on this pillar that was pasted last time, "The Twenty-sixth Daughter Xu Jiaojiao with Liao Qing", which is now torn and pasted upright.
