Soon Xu Sheng finished the palace examination and was appointed by the emperor as Tanhualang, a first-class jinshi and first, with unlimited scenery. Jian Lede gave him most of the three days' running water seats.

It has been six years since he was ordered to enter Beijing, and now that Xu Sheng has taken the test, it is time to return to his hometown.

I finally went back once, and I had to repair the ancestral hall, and the patriarch pushed to build a new one, and the money came out to the patriarch to let him buy some more clan land......

Thinking about it this way, I feel that everything needs to cost money.

Fortunately, if nothing else, money and simplicity are very big.

The simple daily chemical factory store has a large monthly net profit that the emperor is a little hot.

Not long ago, Jian Jian, who had not been in the palace for several years to receive errands, was called to the palace, and asked Jian Jian to find a way to earn money for the emperor's private treasury.

There was no way, the emperor felt that the simple ability to absorb gold was too strong, and every time he went to the queen's palace, this idea became more and more intense.

Now he is in charge of the private property of the two most noble people in the world.

These two big guys casually give some dividends, and the simple wallet is not good.

In the past six years, Hushan Village has changed a lot.

In the past, there were very few people in the village who were willing to take out money to study, and there were only five cousins in the whole village, plus Xu Sheng and his uncle.

Now, with the simple subsidy four years ago, the clan has bought the clan land and built a school, and nearly 100 people are able to go to school.

At present, in addition to Xu Jiang in the big house, there are many more children in the clan, and in time, the Xu family will definitely have a name and prestige in Lianhua County.

In recent years, the patriarch has also strictly managed the other children of the clan, preventing them from going out and doing evil with the simple situation, causing trouble to the simple one.

In this regard, Jian Jian was satisfied with the fact that he took the first two out and asked the patriarch to take them to buy some more fields, and the output was used to build a women's school.

"Girls' Academy? How does this work? ”

When they heard that they were going to build a women's school, the patriarch and the other elders present were a little puzzled.

"Yes, set up a girls' school, so that all girls of the right age in the clan have a chance to study and learn words."

This thought had been hovering in Simplicity's mind for a long time.

In the modern world, life is simple, and the importance of knowledge is well understood; I am also very aware of the importance of women's reading and etiquette.

This is a good thing that can benefit oneself and future generations, both in modern times and in ancient times.

It's just that other people don't think so, "What books do girls need to read?" It's not long before you can take care of the guys at home?

Besides, they are learning now, and they are not going to marry into someone else's family in the future, so why should we bother with this effort? ”

The person who spoke wanted to say something more, but was stopped by a simple and sharp look.

"I wonder if you've misunderstood something?" Jian looked at the person who had the loudest objection just now, and said kindly.

"I'm not talking to you, I'm going to let you know directly. Well? ”

"Also, please make one thing clear, I paid for this money."

After speaking, without waiting for others to refute, Jian Jian looked directly at the patriarch, "Patriarch, what do you say?" ”

For this patriarch, Jian Jian is still very satisfied, he is an upright person, he has a sense of responsibility, and his ability is not bad, I hope he will not live up to her expectations.

If she really can't, she can take the money and ask someone else to do it.

As long as things can be done, who will do it and not do it?

The patriarch looked at the simple and firm gaze, and knew that there was no room for this matter to turn around, so he agreed.

is not like others, who don't know how to look at people's faces, and still want to continue to persuade.

Seeing that the patriarch agreed, he simply returned to his position and discussed specific matters with the patriarch.

After discussing the affairs of the ancestral hall and the women's school, Jian Jian saw that it was almost dark, so he asked Xu Father and Xu Mother to come to the patriarch for a banquet.

As a result, the people sent out hadn't taken two steps before they saw the maid beside Mother Xu running over in a panic.

"Madam, no, the old lady and people are arguing."

As soon as he heard this, he suddenly thought of the big house.

With her and Xu Sheng's current status, there is no one else in the entire village who can quarrel with Xu's mother except for the Dafang family.

Sure enough, Jian Jian saw a bunch of people before he got close, and he didn't watch the excitement in front of the generous door.

"Excuse me, the county lord of Qingping is here."

As soon as the maid beside Jian Jian shouted, everyone turned around and saw that it was Simple, so they spontaneously and consciously retreated to both sides to make way for Simple.

"Xiaojing, you're here." Mother Xu covered her neck and cried.

Seeing that Mother Xu's hair was messy and there were scratches on her neck, the anger in her heart suddenly burst out.

"Daddy, let's go first, just leave it to the patriarch here."

Jian Jian stepped forward and grabbed Xu's mother, then looked at the little guy who had been following Xu's father, and signaled him to take Xu's father and follow her.

From beginning to end, I didn't look at the big house that wanted to make trouble.

The patriarch saw that he was leaving in a hurry, and his heart was also troubled.

"What are you doing here? What's all the fuss about? ”

Mrs. Xu saw that the patriarch was angry, and she couldn't help but feel intimidated, but after a while, she reacted, the county lord of Qingping and Xu Sheng were her grandchildren, what should she be afraid of the patriarch?

Thinking about it like this, Mrs. Xu's confidence was instantly sufficient.

"Patriarch, it's not right for you to say that, Xiao Sheng and Xiao Jing are my own grandsons, is it wrong for me to want to go over and reunite with them?

It must be that Qi slut who is talking bad about me and the old man behind his back, so the two children refuse to get close to us.

What a child! That's a tanhualang that only appears in the play! I was taught by that slut to leave my heart like this. ”

Mrs. Xu was about to die, and she knew that these two children would be so good in the future, so she would have been kind to them before.

"That's right, patriarch, I'm the child's own grandfather, how can they leave us alone now that they're out of the picture?"

Daddy Xu, who has always been hiding behind Mrs. Xu, and letting Mrs. Xu charge into battle, can't sit still.

"Patriarch, you take care of them well, how can they ignore us? I'm Xiaosheng's aunt, and I bought snacks for him when he was a child. ”

Everyone: "Boom, boom......." ”

The 'buzzing' sound in his ears screamed, and the noisy old patriarch's brain was about to crash.

"Shut up."

Everyone: "Boom, boom......." ”

The patriarch raised his cane and slammed it at Father Xu, "I told you to shut up, didn't you hear?" ”

"What are you yourself, don't you have the electricity in your heart?"

"Before you go to bed at night, don't you think about what you've done all these years?"

"What kind of thing, look at what you are wearing, what you bring, and what you usually eat, and it is not the same as that given by the county lord, are you still not satisfied?"

"What, you just want to go to heaven?"

The old patriarch scolded angrily, and at the same time used his crutches to slap all the adult men in the Xu family's big house, venting his anger to the fire in his heart.

"Look, your face is really shameful."

"Do you still want to go to the capital to enjoy happiness? Dream on. ”

"Xu Dalang, Cai's family, and your whole family are chewing the root of their tongues behind their backs, and they are pulling the two old ones out to ask for benefits, this is the last time I warn you, if you dare to make trouble again, you will be directly removed from the clan."

After speaking, the old patriarch snorted coldly and sneered: "Xu Dalang, the old brother will teach you one thing in the end. ”
