He Dacang felt sorry for his younger brother, and he couldn't bear to be treated poorly by the owner of Buzhuang again, and wanted his father to beg Gu Jinli to talk about opening a shop in the county to sell seasoning and spices.

Village Chief He also felt sorry for his second son, but: "The matter of the Du family, think about how the Gu family was bullied when they first came to the village, at this time, we have to slip away quickly, lest that girl see us getting angry, don't say ask for spices for your brother when the time comes, even our family's livelihood will be cut off by that girl." ”

Who is Gu Jinli? If you are ruthless, you can destroy your whole family, but Village Chief He is afraid.

He Dacang had no choice but to go with his father.

He Jinsheng and Gu Jinan were already friends, so he said to his grandfather and father: "Grandpa, father, I'll go and talk to Brother An, and we'll meet at the door of the restaurant later." ”

Village Chief He immediately said: "Eh, let's go, let's go, and get a better relationship with Brother An." ”

Pushed He Tongsheng again: "You go too, don't know anything." ”

He Tongsheng had no choice but to follow his eldest brother to find Gu Jinan and say goodbye to him.

Gu Jinan saw that He Jinsheng's face was not very good, and asked, "Brother Jin Sheng, what's so difficult?" ”

He Tongsheng was quick to speak, and told his second uncle: "The shopkeeper of the proprietor is bad, and his son is also bad. Once Brother Yinsheng's hands were bruised and swollen by the fat pig, but Brother Yinsheng had to hide it from his second uncle and aunt. ”

He Tong was angry and scolded He Yinsheng, saying that he wanted to help him take revenge, but Brother Yinsheng didn't allow it, saying that his family relied on the owner to live and offended the young master of the owner, and his father's buddy was gone, and the whole family had to drink the northwest wind.

He Tongsheng had no choice but to endure it, but he secretly said in his heart: Why are his brothers and cousins so cowardly? Is it really like what the people in the village say, like his grandfather?

Because of the second uncle's family being bullied by the shopkeeper of the cloth village, he was not willing to go to the second uncle's house to play.

After hearing this, Gu Jinan looked at He Jinsheng and asked, "Brother Jinsheng, does your second uncle want to open a shop?" He is a bookkeeper, half a scholar, does he have the ability to open a shop? ”

He Jinsheng's face was a little ashamed, He Tongsheng had already said quickly: "Not at all, my second uncle is a nerd, suffocating a person, he will only deal with account books, he opens a shop, it opens today and will close tomorrow." ”

He Jinsheng scolded when he heard it: "Tongsheng shut up, how can you criticize the elders like this." ”

He Tongsheng snorted: "Originally, I was telling the truth. ”

Gu Jinan listened and said: "Since the second uncle of the He family is not suitable for opening a shop to do business, why does Village Chief He always have the idea of letting him open a shop?" There is no second way? ”

He Jinsheng followed Gu Jin'an for a while, and he was not so stunned, so he listened and asked, "Brother An'er has a good idea?" ”

Gu Jinan said: "Listen to what Brother Jin Sheng said, your second uncle is not suitable for opening a shop, but suitable for going to the yamen." Xu County ordered to clean up a group of corrupt scribes and servants, and now there is still a shortage of scribes in Tianfu County, and the scribes who apply for the examination do not need to show their fame, they only need to show their talents as a guarantee to take the exam, and if they are admitted, they can enter the yamen as a scribe. recruited the last batch a year ago, if your second uncle wants to go, hurry up and find Xiucai as a guarantee to go to the exam. ”

The scribes of Da Chu inherited the system of the previous dynasty, and they are not lowly statuses, and they can still be officials if they are admitted to fame in the future.

He Jinsheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he shouted: "What a good idea!" ”

He Tongsheng acted quickly, and after saying thank you to Gu Jinan, he immediately ran to find his grandfather and told his grandfather what Gu Jinan said.

When Village Chief He heard this, he almost didn't jump up, and knocked on his head and said, "Look at my brain, I'm as stupid as a pig, why didn't I think of letting my second child be a scribe?" ”

They also met Xu Countyling's son-in-law and the two masters today, and with this relationship, the chance of his second son being able to enter the yamen is greater.

Village Chief He couldn't wait, and for the sake of his second son, he immediately said to He Dacang: "You will drive your second brother's house in the county seat of a mule cart now, tell him about it, and let him take the time to go to the yamen to take the scrivener exam." ”

He Tongsheng: "Master, my dad won't go home for the holidays?" ”

Even if there is a mule cart when I get home, it will be dark, but today is the winter solstice.

With a snap, Village Chief He slapped He Tongsheng and said angrily: "If you celebrate the festival, you know that there is a festival, there is a winter solstice every year, what is wrong with one less time, your second uncle has suffered for more than ten years, and it is time to turn over." ”

He Tongsheng was beaten, he was so aggrieved that he couldn't do it, hum, I knew that he wouldn't have come to tell his grandfather about it, he should have waited for the eldest brother and the two brothers to come together.

"Dad, I'm going to the county seat, just to grieve you and walk home."

Village Chief He said: "What's wronged, it's not the first time you've walked home, you should go quickly, it's going to be dark in the county seat again." ”

"Huh." After hearing this, He Dacang bowed his hand to the third grandfather, and immediately left Yanfu Building, drove his own mule cart, and went to the county seat.

Village Chief He found Gu Jin'an, thanked him, and said cautiously: "Brother An, you are familiar with Shang Xiu, why don't you take us to meet him and let him be a guarantor?" ”

Shang Xiu is the only talent in the town, and he is also the son-in-law of Jiang County Lieutenant, with him as a guarantor, his second son can go to the scrivener exam.

Gu Jinan did not refuse, and took the three of them back to the private room to find Shang Xiucai.

Shang Xiucai listened to what Gu Jinan said, took a pen and paper, and quickly wrote a letter of guarantee: "Village Chief He takes it, I hope your second son can be admitted." ”

There is indeed a shortage of scribes in the county, and the second son of the village chief He has been angry with the shopkeeper for more than ten years and does not dare to resist.

When Village Chief He took the letter of guarantee, his eyes were red with excitement, and his second son could be regarded as turning over.

After everything that Village Chief He wanted to do, he happily led his grandson and went home with the return gift given by the third grandfather.

After Village Chief He and the others left, Yuan Lichang's family came in a mule cart and brought a lot of congratulatory gifts, and even Yuan Lichang's daughter-in-law also came.

Gu Jinli raised his eyebrows, what does the Yuan family want to do?

Qi Kangle learned that the Yuan family was coming, and deliberately avoided it and didn't come out, but Yuan Li's eldest daughter-in-law was a direct one, and she didn't see Qi Kangle, so she asked Gu Jinli with a smile: "I heard that the restaurant was opened by you in partnership with your cousin and cousin?" What about the other two? How about calling for Uncle Niang to see? ”

Gu Jinli: "......"

You're here to see your daughter-in-law?

Before she could speak, Chang Errui was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Mother, our family is here to send congratulatory gifts, and we have to dare to go home to worship our ancestors for the festival, if you want to see the eldest brother of the Qi family, come back next time." ”

He didn't want to bring his mother here, but his mother was too smart, she seemed to see something, and insisted on coming along, and she wanted to see Sister Le, what if his mother Sister Le was scared?
