Chapter 246: A lawsuit over saliva
After Shao Yi's hospitality, the group went to the household to pay off, although it was not all in good spirits, but the fatigue along the way was also slowed down a lot.
The chief in charge of the inspection of Jianyang County was named Wei Changping, and he handed over the file of the Jianyang inspection to the household department, and went to the household department to ask for an appointment with Chai Mao, the household servant.
This Chai Mao is the person mentioned by King Chengjun and intends for him to set out to get rid of Wei Changping.
Chai Mao was a middle-aged man with a fair face and a slightly chubby body, and when he heard that Wei Changping and his party were invited to see him, he hurriedly beckoned people in.
He had already received a message from King Chengjun, but now was obviously not the time, so he did not attack Wei Changping and the others, but patiently inquired about the taxes, autumn harvest, and trade situation of Jianyang County.
Hearing that Wei Changping probably told the matter again, Chai Mao encouraged the group very much, and praised Wei Changping for thinking about the imperial treasury and discovering and stopping the malpractices of the southeastern states and counties in time that hindered the passage of commerce.
Wei Changping came out of Lord Shilang's office happily.
Originally, he was just Ding Bochang's favor and the affection of the glass ornament, and he said a few words to the glass workshop in Pingyang County. Unexpectedly, he could not be so praised by Shangguan, and he couldn't help but be unhappy.
A few people walked out of the household office, Wei Changping patted Ding Bochang on the shoulder vigorously, and said, "We did a good job on this errand, and you have your credit." Do things well, and you will have a great future in the future. ”
Ding Bochang didn't even dare to say that he didn't dare to be, and bowed his hand to Wei Changping and the other three people, "All the adults are the seniors of the lower officials, and several adults can only get the praise of Lord Chai if they think about the court." Xiaguan has been on this trip, but he has followed the adults to see it, and it should be Xiaguan who thanks you to a few seniors. ”
The Ding family kid is so knowledgeable and interesting, of course everyone can listen to it. After touting each other, they broke up contentedly and went home separately.
Ding Bochang returned home, and his father, Zhan Shifu, Zhan Shi Ding Shi and Gang Sanya, returned.
After visiting his father and mother-in-law, and leaving the gifts he brought to the family, Ding Bochang withdrew.
I went to see my aunt again, beckoned the little maid to bring a few food and fabrics specially for my biological mother, and talked with her for a while, and then left the backyard.
He didn't stay at home, changed his clothes, and at the invitation of Shao Yi and others, he went to Juxian Pavilion Restaurant to participate in the reception banquet prepared for him by a few fox friends.
On a cold day, Ding Bochang no longer rode a horse, but only sat comfortably in a carriage and rushed to the agreed restaurant.
It is said that after being away from home for so many days, after coming back, you should stay at home first, eat with your family, and talk about what you have seen and heard outside and how you are doing your errands.
It's just that he is the concubine of the family, and he has no sense of existence at home since he was a child, that is, he has mixed with Shao Yi and others, and he has a well-known reputation in the capital.
It's just that this well-known reputation makes parents and brothers even more unhappy.
It's just that after he mixed up with Shao Yi and others, the attitude of his parents and brothers towards him was no longer important.
Even if they don't look down on him as a concubine, they don't dare to do anything to him. Even, he would not put up a fight in front of him, otherwise, one would not be happy and would be brought into a fight by Shao Yi and others.
That is the result of having no place to reason and fighting in vain, and the gains outweigh the losses.
The days before the age of twenty passed so vaguely and arrogantly, and he didn't even think about what he would do in the future.
Unexpectedly, Shao Yi actually joined the Terracotta Division.
The leaders are not particular at all, and they are a small leader from the eighth grade in a place like the Terracotta Division, what choice can they have except to follow the reform?
For a time, these people each went to the head of the house, saying that they wanted to change their evil and return to the right, and change their past wrongs.
As a result, the circle of the children of the official eunuchs in the capital was very refreshing.
Some face-saving Zhan Qi, Cheng Youting and others had more room to choose and went to a more glamorous place to join the company. And he and Zhang Yongchang entered the household department, starting from small scribes.
Ding Bochang often thinks to himself, in fact, this is the way they should go.
When I was young, I was fortunate to meet Shao Yi, an outer room who was abandoned to the royal family, and for so many years he was dressed in fresh clothes and angry horses, and rampant in the market.
When he reached adulthood, he followed Shao Yi's footsteps and got on the right track, and worked diligently in his career in the future. He believes that with the ability of these few people, as long as they use their energy on the right path, they can always make an example.
The guy in the restaurant had already been instructed, and when he saw Ding Bochang and the little maid entering the door, he hurriedly greeted him and took him to the private room where more than seven people were.
As soon as Ding Bochang pushed the door open, the room, which was originally quite quiet, suddenly sounded a loud shout.
Zhang Yongchang, who has the best personality, smiled happily this time.
He and Qiao Qixiong slapped each other, and smiled and hooked their hands at several other people: "Come on, come on, brothers, I am willing to lose the bet and take the silver." Bochang is the right foot advanced goal. ”
When Ding Bochang heard this, his face immediately darkened a little.
These guys are betting on him whether he will step with his left foot or his right foot first when he enters the door.
How boring does this have to be to do this?
Then, he, who was not boring, shut the man who led the way out of the door, strode over, sat down on the chair vacated for him, and said unhappily: "I bet with my master that I will always share a few pieces of silver with me." How big is the bet? I tell you, you have to count me in. ”
The first one not to do it was Qiao Qixiong: "Why? This trip to Jianyang, you will have delicious food and drink all the way, and there are local people waiting for you, and there is extra silver to earn. We haven't settled accounts with you yet, and you have come to divide my money, how can there be such a reason? ”
Zhang Yongchang also looked disdainful: "Look at your little talent, we are just bored here, find something to do." Each of them gave ten taels of silver. You're embarrassed to share this stuff. ”
"Only ten taels of silver?" Ding Bochang almost laughed, "I heard you shouting so loudly when I entered the door, and I only gambled ten taels of silver to see what you are doing." ”
Zhan Qi carried a money bag containing ten taels of silver, leaned at Ding Bochang, and provoked trouble: "Listen to his tone, I think I am at home, and I only have ten taels of silver a month." That's my expenses for a month, and it's nothing in his mouth. He must have made a fortune this time, right? No, you have to make him bleed if you say anything. ”
The saliva lawsuit immediately fought, and in the end, it was Ding Bochang who was alone: "Get out, master, I don't have a common language with you." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the melon-eating crowd who were smiling and had not spoken, "Cheng'an, where are you taking the wind for me, this is clearly the Longtan Tiger's Den, right?" Brother, I've just come back in the middle of winter, all the way, is it so unkind? ”
Shao Yi spread his hands: "I want to help you speak, but I also lost the silver." You said that if you had taken the left foot first, I would have given you my share with whoever we brothers had just taken, but who made you take the right foot? ”
Everyone laughed, and the tea that Ding Bochang had just sent into his mouth almost sprayed.
Can he be blamed for this? Still unreasonable?
Why, these bad friends are known for being unreasonable.
Ding Bochang wiped the tea stains on his mouth and said, "Okay, okay, I treat you as brothers, and I brought you Tuyi specialties, which cost me a lot of silver." I'm still waiting for dinner here, let's have a brother, and I won't care about you betting on me. ”
This is almost the same, seeing that Ding Bochang, who has always been unforgiving, confessed, everyone was much more comfortable.
Zhan Qi put his arm on his shoulders and asked, "Who are we with?" Where's your tuyi? ”
The words had already been spoken, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him wrongly, he was busy changing his words, "No, I mean, you tell us about Jianyang, can't you really transport a piece of glass from Pingyang County before you go?" ”
