Chunzhi smiled and nodded, "Needless to say, the year after tomorrow is the year of Dabi, my father-in-law is definitely going to catch the exam, he must take me with him, and then, we will meet again,"
When Miss Song heard this, she burst into tears and laughed,
"However, it will take more than a year to wait,"
"This year, let's just continue to exchange letters," Chunzhi smiled, "And maybe, when you arrive in the capital, your father will tell you a good family business, and I won't wait for the year after tomorrow, and I will rush to the capital to eat your wedding wine,"
"What nonsense are you talking about," Speaking of family affairs, Miss Song's face was flushed again, and she quickly glared at Chunzhi slightly,
Seeing this, Haruka laughed shallowly,
And over there, Chai Dong was also talking to Wei Zhong's father and son,
Wei Zhong is not dead yet,
"Brother Chai, you can come with me, this time Lord Song went to the capital, and he is about to enter the Ministry of Officials, that is a good place, he has already helped me find a position, then I will be a serious official, I can mix to such a point, if you come, then you will definitely be able to mix better than me, isn't it much better than being a teacher in the academy,"
Chai Dong only let him repeat these words over and over again, and then he shook his head again and refused, "No need, Brother Wei, you are going higher and higher, this matter is indeed gratifying, but you don't have to worry about the future of the younger brother, I have my own arrangements in my heart,"
"What are your arrangements, do you still plan to go to the Spring Festival the year after tomorrow," Wei Zhong immediately asked,
Chai Dong bowed, "Yes,"
"Directly participate in the Spring Festival, and then enter the court as an official after winning the Jinshi, this is also a way," Wei Zhong nodded, "But it will take more than a year, this year's time, if you follow Lord Song, maybe you will already be a big official,"
Chai Dong still shook his head, "I'm not going,"
"You...... Hey," Wei Zhong couldn't persuade him, so he could only shake his head and sigh, "Since that's the case, then you should go to the Chunyu exam first, if you pass the exam, then of course everyone will be happy, but what if...... I mean, if you can't pass the test, then come back to an adult, it's okay,"
No matter how Chai Dong refused, he was trying his best to pull him to his side anyway, in Wei Zhong's cognition, Song Zhifu was a very good person, with good character, solid knowledge, and very good to the people under him, such a good Shangguan was hard to find, so he wished that Chai Dong could also be with him, so that not only could they continue to be together, but Chai Dong's future was also bright.
Of course, Chai Dong understood his hard work, so he nodded, "Okay, I know,"
But as for what to do then, that's what to do then, and now he doesn't want to say more,
Seeing this, Wei Zhong could only shut up,
In the evening, it was time for the girl to catch the week, and for this daughter, Chai Dong's requirements were much more relaxed.
"No matter what I catch, as long as she can grow up healthy in the future, I will be satisfied,"
The completely different attitudes of this pair of children are enough to show where his heart has deviated.
Li Boy was standing aside at the time, and after he heard this, his mouth was pursed into a straight line, and he didn't speak for a long time.
And now, most of the things on the table are some girls' gadgets, what little hydrangeas, small handkerchiefs, rattles or something, but the girl is tired of playing with these things, she just looks at them and climbs away, and finally, she climbs to a small hat, and then stops,
The little hand picked up the hat, and as soon as she buckled it to her head, she laughed stupidly,
"Ah, Pan girl likes to wear hats, then she plans to be an official's wife, only officials and ladies are qualified to wear hats," the villagers immediately laughed,
With Chai Dong's current identity, his daughter can indeed marry an official, so it is not impossible to hope that the girl will marry an official's wife in the future, so everyone didn't think much about it, so they took advantage of the situation and joked.
This Zhou was originally a formality, and Chunzhi didn't take it seriously, but when she heard everyone say this, she couldn't help but whisper to Chai Dong: "You say, is it possible to be a female official with a hat, I remember that those female officials in the play are also wearing hats,"
"It's better not to," Chai Dong's face immediately sank, "It's not a good thing to be a female official,"
"Oh, then don't be fine," Harueda quickly shook his head,
After a while, even if the banquet was finished, the villagers ate and played, and then they all went home, and other people who were far away were also resettled, and the courtyard where they entered was full again, and the lights were brilliant for a while.
Chunzhi and Chai Dong inspected the courtyard inside and outside with lanterns, and made sure that the guests were resting, and then the two returned to the room.
At this time, Li Xiaozi and Pan Yatou were already asleep, and the brother and sister slept in a row hand in hand, with a heartless smile on their little faces.
"It's easy for both of them," Haruzhi sighed as she quickly sat down, "We're all tired to death,"
"It seems that it is time to buy two maids at home," Chai Dong said,
Chunzhi raised his head to look at him suddenly, and Chai Dong also looked at her eyes quietly, "Isn't it, there is so much land at home now, you are busy, although Chunye and they can come over to help now, but they are all older, and they will soon have their own families, and after they start a family, they will be busy for their own families, and it is impossible to stay here all the time, and then you have to bother to continue to train new people, which is too hard, so, let's buy a few girls back, we are not short of this money now,"
"I know what you mean, in fact, I've been thinking about this matter for the past two days, it's ......" Chunzhi bit her lip, "You said, at the beginning of this year, I was still crying poor with Mrs. Gao, saying that our family couldn't afford to raise a maid, but in the second half of the year, we will buy a girl to come back to serve, if she knows the news, I'm afraid she will have to die of anger,"
"At this time and that time, we really didn't have many conditions to raise maids at that time, but now that we have, then we can raise it, this is our own business, outsiders are wrong to point fingers at will, and now even if they know, they are not qualified to point fingers," Chai Dong's voice was cold,
But after saying this, he quickly took out a piece of paper from his arms: "By the way, there is this,"
Chunzhi took it and looked at it, "Wow, one hundred and fifty taels,"
"That's right, I will repair the next year, and the academy will give it in advance," Chai Dong nodded, "Just take this money, let's go to the town to buy a few good girls and come back, and the rest of the money will continue to buy land, what do you think?"
"Okay," Chunzhi nodded hurriedly, "Yizhichun's business is also good this year, my mother should have saved two or three hundred taels on hand, let's also take it out to buy land, buy more, just so that we can move some out to plant mulberry trees for me to raise silkworms,"
"You want to raise silkworms," Chai Dong immediately asked,
Chunzhi nodded, "Yes, most of Yizhichun's current guests have status, so of course the things you want must be good, silk is the most basic, now spring leaves, spring buds, spring flowers, and the two daughters of the Wang San family have already made things decent, and the cloth and silk thread used in our family every day are a lot better, I thought, instead of letting Chu Xu and them send someone to send it every once in a while, it is better for us to plant mulberry trees and raise silkworms by ourselves, and then weave cloth by ourselves, in this way, what color of cloth do we need, what kind of silk thread do we want, We can all make our own decisions, so that once they make a mistake, we can't make a lot of things on our side, so we can only wait stupidly, of course, the most important thing is ......"
She smiled at him, "In this way, the villagers can also make some money with it, and this should be a reward for their help over the years,"
The personal debt owed by Chai Dong and the Wang family back then, they have begun to pay it back, but there will never be an end to paying it back at the same speed as before, not to mention, their family has risen too fast in recent years, and some people have begun to blush, and began to speak ill of their family in private, and quietly stumbling up.
People are like this, when you are as poor as me, everyone helps each other and is harmonious, but once a person becomes rich first, the person who is still poor will feel uncomfortable, no matter how you look at you, now, their family is in a state of being disliked by many people in the village,
Chunzhi doesn't want to fall out with them, everyone is not a bad person, it's just that their life is getting better and better, so she just takes everyone to make money together, so that they can return their favors again, and everyone's life can be better, of course, the neighbors can continue to be harmonious,
After Chai Dong heard this, he immediately nodded, "Okay, I listen to you, but ...... What to do, have you planned it?"
"No, isn't there Chu Xu," Chunzhi said with a smile,
Immediately, Chu Xu, who was reading the account book at home, sneezed several times one after another,
He hurriedly rubbed his nose, raised his tearful hazy eyes and looked into the distance, "Someone is scolding me again, it must be those two people from Wangjia Village, hum,"
