Good news, hearing these three words, coupled with the fact that they were spoken by the old gentleman's eldest disciple, that is, from the mouth of the official in the imperial court, it must be related to the war at the border pass.

"Say it quickly!" Jiang Xi said excitedly.

Jiang Qian covered her mouth and laughed: "I knew that the girl must have reacted like this, since you received Song Gongzi's letter two days ago, you have been sullen." It's okay now, there's news from the court, girl, you don't have to worry anymore. ”

"What the hell is the news, you tell me quickly."

Two days ago, Jiangxi received a letter from Song San, saying that there was an emergency at the border gate, and he might have to leave in the next two days, and let Jiangxi have a good holiday in Jiangxi, don't worry about him or anything like that.

That's going to the battlefield, how can you not worry, if you really don't care, then she is not Jiangxi.

In the past few days, she has been worrying about this matter, and she just wants to hurry up and get a good news, telling her that there is no need to fight at the border pass, so that Song San can also save that kind of hardship, and he may lose his life at any time.

I just didn't expect that there was really good news coming, and it was so fast.

"This news came down suddenly, and it is estimated that the third prince should also receive the news at this time. I heard that a talented man recommended himself and went to the border to be a lobbyist. At first, the imperial court did not believe that he could convince the other party, but unexpectedly, this morning there was a news that the army of the neighboring country was stagnant, and it seemed that it was not planning to go to war.

As soon as the news came, another 800-mile urgent report came that the neighboring country had begun to withdraw its troops, and it also released a message that there would be no more war in ten years.

The whole court was celebrating this event, and even the people of the capital cheered, and everyone remembered the name of the talented man. Speaking of which, you and he still know each other, girl. ”

"Oh? You say I know? Before Jiang Xi could recover from his great joy, he heard such a sentence again, and immediately asked, "That person, could it be Wang Yizhi?" ”

"Auntie...... Girl......" Jiang Qian's eyes widened and asked in surprise, "Girl, how did you guess it all at once, you are really too smart!" ”

Jiang Xi rolled his eyes and looked at Jiang Qian.

"Don't pat me on the back here, no one I know has this ability except him. If it weren't for him, I really don't know who it could be. ”

"Hee-hee." Jiang Qian laughed twice, "The girl is smart, and even this has been discovered by you." Girl, are you happy now that you hear the news? ”

Jiang Xi nodded, there was no better news than this.

"You go get pen and ink for me, I'm going to write a letter."

"It's written for Song Gongzi, I'll go get it."

Seeing that Jiang Xi's mood improved, Jiang Qian was also happy, Jiang Xi always frowned in the past two days, which made her depressed.

After writing the letter, Jiang Xi asked Jiang Qiantuo to go to the provincial capital for a while, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he thought of something.

Now, every time she and Song San send a letter, they ask someone in their respective mansions to deliver it in person. Even when Yuan Xiu went out to travel before, he gave a lot of money for people to bring over.

Like ordinary people, they don't have the financial resources at all, and it is too difficult to send and receive letters. Just like Dr. Yuan was sent out before, and then he was released. At that time, he didn't have any money on him, and there was no way to send letters at all, so he almost died on the road and no one knew.

Although not everyone can read and write in this era, there are always literate gentlemen in the village and town, and if you open a post office that specializes in delivering letters, like a post office in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, I believe that many people will try to use it.

Jiang Xi thought about it and felt that this idea was quite feasible. Whether it is in the village or in the town, many men or sons of families go to work in the county seat. Some in order to save money, they may not be able to come back once in half a year, if there is this station, then whether it is people who work outside, or people who are looking forward to their news at home, they will definitely choose to send letters this method to send their thoughts.

Jiangxi thought about it again, or simply ask two gentlemen who can read and write at the post station to write and read letters to those who can't read, so that there is no need to worry that those who can't read can't use it.

Jiangxi quickly told Li and Qin Hao about this idea, it happened that tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, and the people of the Li family were here, and when Jiangxi's two uncles heard it, they immediately said: "This idea is good, you don't know, in our village, there are many people who help people work in the county seat, and they really don't come back a few times a year." The family wanted to go and see it, but they were afraid of wasting money, so they could only worry about it. If you have the post station you said, you can help people write letters, send letters and read letters, it really solves the troubles of many people. ”

Qin Hao also nodded and said, "Xi'er, your idea is good, as soon as this August passes, it will be the Double Ninth Festival, and it will be a good day to send a letter at that time." If you want to do it, do it as soon as possible. ”

Double Ninth Festival, this festival may not be important on the 21st day, but it is a very important festival in this era. Especially for the elderly, they all want to see their children and grandchildren in front of them on this day. If you can't see people, it's very gratifying to see the letter and know the news.

"Xi'er, Hao'er, I think that since we want to do this, we can't think about making money." After Li Shi was silent for a long time, he suddenly spoke, "Our family has run out of money now, and we don't care about this anymore." I have heard you read and say, "What is poor is what you are in the world?" ”

"Mother, if you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world."

"Alas, I don't understand these crepe sentences, but the general meaning is still clear, that is, people can't forget their roots after they have money, and they must always remember to help others, right?"

Jiang Xi and Qin Hao glanced at each other, in fact, it can be understood in this way.

Seeing that they had no objections, Li Shi spoke again: "Our family is not short of that money now, so I thought, as long as we don't lose money, then we will try to collect as little money as possible, and strive to let everyone be able to send letters." ”

"That's a good idea." Old Man Li walked out, he had just finished watching the old lady, and Grandma Jiangxi's body recovered quickly, but because everyone was worried about her, he didn't let her get out of bed now.

"I heard that you also opened a warehouse in the provincial city for disaster relief, and the year before last, didn't Xi'er also go to save the flood? If this good deed is done continuously, there will always be a good reward. A few years ago, wasn't that big official too? ”

The big official that Mr. Li said was actually a small magistrate, and it was not on their side, it was said to be from Jiangnan, but because his deeds were spread too widely, and many things were artificially added to it, which led to that incident being very famous in the entire Daliang.

That happened more than twenty years ago, and they didn't know the name of the official. The only thing he knows is that he was very good to the people in office and was honest, so he was assassinated by someone with a heart because he didn't use money from his superiors to trap him.

When he was imprisoned and was about to be beheaded, it is said that all the people in the area united and did nothing every day, shouting outside the prison that they were wronged.

It just so happened that at that time, there was a governor of the capital who was ordered to visit there privately by Weifu and saw this scene. After privately learning about the character of the detained official, the governor conducted an investigation and found out that the official had indeed been falsely accused.

Later, the governor personally helped him overturn the case, and also took off the black gauze hat of the villain who framed him and his insatiable boss and put them in prison.

In the end, he managed to rise from a small county order to the prefect, and all the villains were beheaded for public display.

This incident was not only praised by the locals, but also turned into a play, and the storyteller in the teahouse often talked about it. Slowly, everyone knows, and what the people remember the most is that good people have good rewards.

Regarding the truth of this matter, Jiang Xi also asked Song San, and Song San said that it seemed to be true, and that official had now been promoted to a Beijing official, maybe he would be able to see it in the capital in the future.

Old Man Li's words made the Li family even more determined, and Jiang Xi and Qin Hao also followed the Li family, and their family is indeed not bad for that money now, and it is good to be able to do something for the villagers.

"Then it's decided, after the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow, Xi'er and I will go to do this." Qin Hao opened his mouth and completely finalized this matter.

In the evening, Jiangxi received a letter from Song San, telling her that she didn't have to go to the battlefield. At the same time, he also said in the letter that he had to go to the capital, and he didn't celebrate the festival with Lord Song and them last year, and he couldn't do it again this year.

Jiang Xi didn't reply, because she knew that Song San should have been on his way to the capital when he wrote this letter. She writes about the past, and no one will see it.

Song San went to the capital, not just to reunite with his family. Jiang Xi knew that the Song family's biggest threat to Song San was not his eldest brother and second brother, both of whom were concubines born to the concubine clan and could not compete with him at all. The real threat was his stepmother and his stepmother's younger brother.

The Song family is not only the property of the provincial capital, if he only sticks to the provincial capital, then everything in the capital may be taken away by his stepmother. In a way, Song San is also an extremely ambitious person, and he will not allow his younger brother to climb on top of him.

So when he went to the capital this time, Jiang Xi thought that there must be some waves, and he could only pray silently for him in his heart.

"Girl." Jiang Qian walked in and gave a look, and the other girls around Jiang Xi retreated. "She's finally willing to spit out the news, girl, you can't imagine who the person who sent her here will be."
