"Sister-in-law Zhuang, you go to the market to buy some elbows and rice noodles, and ask for more pork bone sticks, I plan to add food to the craftsmen in the evening, and when I meet the yamen, tell Chengzhi and his father to let him come back early......" Yu instructed Aunt Zhuang.

"Huh? Sir, why are you back? Yu suddenly spoke.

Gui Mingyue, Gui Jingxue and Gui Chengqi, who were gathering together to study the layout of the new house, raised their heads one after another, and looked at Gui Hongyuan, who was not heavy, opened the thick cloth curtain and walked in.

Then he entered the back room without saying a word, and Yu quickly followed.

What happened, several children looked at each other, Gui Mingyue's father, who was the most diligent on weekdays, came back so early, and suddenly had some bad premonitions in his heart.

"What the hell is going on, sir?" Yu asked worriedly.

Ay! Gui Hongyuan frowned deeply, and said for a long time,

"I'm resigning."

"What? Resignation ...... Resigned, why is that? Yu couldn't react for a while, she knew how diligent and motivated Gui Hongyuan had been over the years, and such a thing as resignation was unimaginable.

Let's say that when Gui Hongyuan was in the morning, he went to the yamen with great interest, just waiting for the promotion order to be issued. Who knows—

"See Lord Taishou" didn't wait for the promotion order, but the county Lu Taishou came in person. Officials of all sizes in the county hurriedly bowed.

"Colleagues, who is the master of the book?" After Lu Taishou took his seat, he said a few polite words, then changed the topic and asked.

"Xia Guan is exactly," Gui Hongyuan solemnly stepped forward and bowed.

Lu Taishou took a sip of tea, looking unpredictable.

"The duty of the master has always been diligent, and over the years, he has assisted the subordinate officials in managing the documents and the tax on money and grain, which can be described as conscientious, and he has been ...... from the prelude to the county order.

"Gui Hongyuan, do you know your mistake!" Lu Taishou put the tea cup in his hand on the table and suddenly asked sharply.

When everyone heard this, they were all very surprised, and looked at Gui Hongyuan in puzzlement.

Gui Hongyuan was also confused, and leaned over again and said, "Please forgive the official for being stupid, and please make it clear to Lord Taishou." ”

"Humph! Go back and ask your good sons and daughters. Relying on you, the father of the court official, you are doing some bullying and suppressing your peers outside! ”

Are you talking about Chengzhi and Yue'er? Gui Hongyuan hurriedly stepped forward to distinguish his pair of children: "Yue'er and they are sold as hairpins, they are all small transactions, and the baskets of flowers that Chengzhi sells every day do not dare to say that they can suppress their peers, and please check them out." ”

"Listen, a court official who connived at his family to do business is simply insulting!" Lu Taishou pointed at Gui Hongyuan and scolded.

When several colleagues in the county heard this, they looked at each other. In this Dadong Dynasty, the officials themselves are not high, and none of the officials' families are in charge of shops and acres. Although Gui Hongyuan's wife and children sell hairpins and flowers, it is not good to say it, but the fire a year ago left Gui Hongyuan's family with nowhere to go, and the situation at home made colleagues very sympathetic. At present, seeing that Lu Taishou is not forgiving for this idea, he is very puzzled.

The county commander was trembling and wanted to step forward to say a few good words to Gui Hongyuan......

"Hugh has to say again, if you want to continue to be an official, go back and quickly let your pair of two daughters stop making hairpins and selling flowers for a living, otherwise...... Hum! In addition, this year's promotion in your county will also be stopped. Lu Taishou waved his hand, refusing to listen to their explanations again.

When Gui Hongyuan heard this, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and his face suddenly turned like ashes.

"Also, which one is Liu Zhutou?"
