Chapter 622: Stand Firm
If you want to talk about the status of the Guo Buluo family in Heishui, it is the same as the status of General Ningguta outside the pass, and if you say that it is over, it is no different from the Tu Emperor.
The magistrate of the county yamen wants to give Guo Buluo's mansion three points, and those rich squires are even more interested in Guo Buluo's family, and when they encounter something, they naturally want to go to Guo Buluo's house to ask for an idea. Isn't it the same as the Chinese New Year in the past two days, and there are people who visit the house every day?
It's a pity that Guo Buluo's family master, Master Hou, is not a guest, and these people didn't even see Young Master Chengyu, who was in charge. It's just that there are other young masters of the Guo Buluo family who take turns to receive guests.
I couldn't see the right master, I couldn't get the right idea, this guy was also anxious, they actually discussed, came to the palace, and they came together without telling them.
Looking at it individually, these ten or so rich gentry are naturally not comparable to the Guo Buluo family, but it is also very difficult to get together, and the third young master of the Guo Buluo family who received the guests frowned.
With a smile on his face, he burst into a foul mouth when he exited the hall, and complained: "I knew that the boss was not so kind, the second brother originally ordered him to receive this reception, but he was good, but he pushed the matter on me, not that he knew that this group of old men was not easy to deal with, so I asked me to fill this hole." No matter, I don't have the ability to send people, little Liuzi, you go and call the boss! ”
The elder who followed him smiled bitterly: "My third young master, if you ask me to call the eldest young master, then the eldest young master must be at home!" Before, I came across a stone next to the eldest young master, and he said that the eldest young master was going hunting today! This will definitely not be at home. ”
"The boss is really good at hiding things! I actually ran out......"
Xiao Liuzi approached: "Otherwise, let's find the second young master!" These people were originally here to see the second young master! ”
"Nonsense! Now to invite the second brother, won't it make the second brother think that I am useless? I also pointed out that if I do this well, I can let my second brother give me a good errand to do! How can you see the second brother now? Rubbing his hands, the third young master scolded in a low voice: "If Lao Tzu can be reincarnated, he will also be reincarnated in his wife's belly, and he can only live by pleasing the second brother like now?" ”
When his mother was favored, he still wanted to rely on his mother's favor to gain a bit of power, but he didn't expect his mother's favor to disappear so quickly, the young women in the back house were the same as leeks, one after another, and he became one of the five or six useless concubines of Guo Buluo's family.
At that time, the eldest brother also wanted to use the position of the eldest son to suppress the second brother and take the position of the head of Guo Buluo's family, but the second brother, who was three or four years younger than the eldest brother, actually trampled the eldest brother under his feet. Up to now, no one can suppress the second brother, and their group of concubines can only curry favor with each other, waiting for the second brother to reward them with some benefits like dogs and other bones.
"Forget it, don't talk about it, I'll go back and deal with it......" Shaking his fan, the third young master turned around and wanted to go in, but suddenly stopped because of the noise not far away.
"Yes......" Turning his head to look, he raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Hey, why is it the second brother?" Didn't he say he didn't want to see these people? ”
Hurriedly stepped forward, the third young master still wanted to say a few words flatteringly, but was stopped by Cheng Yu raising his hand: "No need to say any more, let's go in!" ”
The third young master didn't dare to say much, and followed Cheng Yu into the hall, his face was already full of joy that could not be hidden.
Let the boss hide from things, this time he still got the benefits, if he usually talks about business, the second brother may not let him follow him.
As soon as Cheng Yu entered the hall, the people who were discussing in the hall immediately stopped talking, and most of the people stood up, even those who didn't get up in time hurriedly smiled, which was completely different from the previous attitude towards the third young master, the third young master smiled on his face, but he was still a little uncomfortable.
Cheng Yu didn't look at his brother's face at all, entered the house with a smile and bowed his hand, said hello in a circle, and then sat down, and immediately a girl served tea attentively, and by the way, changed the tea that had been cold for the guest.
To say that they were really a little slacking before, but these people don't care about this at this time, some can still pretend to be patient, and some ask directly: "Young Master Chengyu, what do you think about this matter?" We're all pointing at you......"
Cheng Yu smiled and said, "I'm a junior, what ideas can I come up with?" I won't hide it from you, my father has already decided, and tomorrow I will go to the yamen to re-declare the land at home, as for you, it depends on how you plan. ”
As soon as he heard Cheng Yu say this, a squire stood up: "Young Master Cheng Yu, are you joking?" What kind of family are you Guo Buluo? Will you be afraid of a county? What do you say to declare, we don't believe it......"
"Who is the Guo Buluo family? Is there any misunderstanding between you? Although my family has a title, but it is also the people of the Qing Dynasty, since the government has an order, then we, the people, should follow the order of the government - from ancient times to the present, it is the people who do not fight with the officials, do you still want to fight against the government? That's a rebellion......"
After a few words, everyone looked at each other, and no one was silent for a long time.
Cheng Yu didn't care either, and after beating these people for a few words, he had already helped Bai Shengwen, as for whether these people were persuaded or not, it was not his concern.
After saying that, Cheng Yu got up and smiled and arched his hand, ignored everyone, and left directly, unable to stop Cheng Yu, everyone pulled the third young master, you and I said a word, and turned the hall into a vegetable market.
The third young master is also bitter, what does he know! was asked in a hurry, so he could only say: "I said that it was my father's decision, and I really can't change it!" Guys, I really don't know, I don't know......"
spent a whole day at Guo Buluo's house, but in the end he still didn't get what he wanted, and the unwilling one said directly: "Why don't we go to Fucheng to complain ourselves!" Guo Buluo's family is not coming out, we people are gathered together, and the prefect should also pay attention to it. ”
"How can it be done without Guo Buluo's family?" Some people objected, but they still didn't dare to take the lead.
In the end, it broke up unhappily, and there was still no final result.
There are also people who are lucky, thinking that Guo Buluo's family may be bluffing, but they didn't think that the next day, Guo Buluo's family really went to the yamen to re-declare, and there was a thousand acres more land than before.
With Guo Buluo's family as an example, those squires who wanted to make trouble couldn't make waves, and they didn't give up and rushed to Fucheng to find a way, and they came back in disgrace, and when they returned to Heishui, they told their good people that they heard that the imperial court was going to reorganize the fields, not only Heishui wanted to thoroughly inspect the fields, but then I was afraid that the entire Guanwai would be over, no, the whole country would have to thoroughly investigate the fields.
After hearing such news, those who originally reported that they were lucky no longer dared to be lucky, even if they were reluctant, they still went to the yamen to declare.
In this way, the thorough investigation of Heishui's fields was completed one after another, and Bai Shengwen, who fired the first shot, finally gained a firm foothold in Heishui and became the county magistrate of Heishui County in the real sense.
