Chapter 105: Effort

The fourth master glanced at him and didn't explain.

The tenth master was also accustomed to his temperament along the way, although he was depressed, he still honestly looked down at the account book in his hand.

Of course, the fourth master knew that the things in this room couldn't find anything. As a human being in two lives, he knows the doorway very well. But he can't just look for it as soon as he comes.

Speaking of which, this time when he came out on an errand, Huang Ama didn't even send a lot of manpower. Except for him and his tenth brother, plus a few guards, there was no one else. It was the first time he had come to Yangzhou, and he was not familiar with the local officials, so it was not easy to find a breakthrough.

He flipped through the account book in his hand, but in his heart he was guessing Kangxi's purpose this time.

Do you really want them to find out, or is it just to perfunctory the prince?

In fact, he didn't quite understand why the prince had to turn this matter over.

Last year, the eighth came once, but the matter was abandoned halfway, and they finally returned to the palace to report to Kangxi, and they didn't know. But what can be known is that at the end of the year, the Yangzhou prefect was rated excellent, which shows that Kangxi does not want to make trouble here.

But what does the prince mean by mentioning this matter again and again? Could it be that there is someone else behind the scenes?

The fourth master thought about it, and he could make the prince think about it, but now there is no one else except the eldest brother.

But with the means of the big brother, he is stretching his hand so long now? No matter how you think about it, it doesn't feel right.

A thought flashed through the fourth master's mind, but he felt that it was unlikely.

"Fourth brother, I can't understand here." The tenth master suddenly spoke up, interrupting the fourth master's train of thought.

"I'll show you." The fourth master raised his head and said.

The tenth master took it and pointed to one place and asked, "This place doesn't seem right." Both are jewelry shops, and the standard of taxation is the same, but the proportion I calculated seems to be wrong. ”

The fourth master glanced at it, turned two more pages to the front, looked back at it again, and said, "This family has a reduction, because when there is a disaster, it donated silver." ”

"Oh, really?" The tenth master looked at both sides, nodded and said, "It's true, I missed it." ”

"Look carefully next time." The fourth master admonished.

"Oh." The Tenth Master nodded.

If you dare to bring it to them so easily, there will be no problem. He let the tenth master see it, but he was just giving him a chance to learn.

Two days have passed, and the fourth and tenth masters really haven't gone out. Governor Fang snickered in his heart. It's really two stunned young people, they actually stupidly shut themselves up, and they can't see any problems after two months!

And the officials of Yangzhou City also knew that the fourth and tenth masters had arrived in Yangzhou, so they asked the prefect to meet them.

Governor Fang didn't dare to make up his own mind, so he went to ask in person.

The fourth master replied with two words, "No." ”

He had a cold attitude and blocked all the words of the prefect Fang Fu.

is just two bald brothers, and they are so arrogant, which is a little disliked.

Governor Fang truthfully relayed the words of the fourth master, as for whether the local officials were happy when they heard it, it was not something he could control.

Mao Carrier is also one of them. Since this news is no longer confidential, of course, he is also preparing to meet the two elder brothers. He felt relieved.

He's not a stammering person. I just want to do my own errands, get a salary, and support my family.

It's just that thinking that these elder brothers are so arrogant, I don't know if my daughter will be angry with the eighth master. After all, he is a small character, and the master can't refuse anything.

That night, he called Mao Mingxuan to his study alone.

"Are you sure you want to participate in this year's Autumn Festival?" Mao asked the carrier.

"Naturally, the son has already said it." Mao Mingxuan nodded affirmatively.

"Are you sure?" Mao asked again.

"My son is working hard to win Xie Yuan." Mao Mingxuan's eyes were bright, and he had an aura of ambition.

"Good!" Mao Chengyun nodded with satisfaction, "You have been able to read since you were a child, and I haven't bothered about this, you have always been fighting for yourself." It's just that now that your sister has entered the palace, I have to put some pressure on you. ”

"Ama doesn't say it, but his son understands it in his heart." Mao Mingxuan said: "It's just, Amma, why did you suddenly mention this matter?" ”

When he took the initiative to mention it, Mao Chengyun also advised him not to put too much pressure on himself, as long as he could be promoted to the court as an official. Today, I have greater expectations for him, which is obviously stimulated by something.

"If you are out, your sister will have to rely on. You Ama and I are upright, you will only bury your head in work, you won't drill camp, and you won't have much success in this life. Mao said.

"Why should Amma be presumptuous?" Mao Mingxuan frowned slightly, "Doing errands in a down-to-earth manner will always be seen." ”

"Instead of passively waiting for someone to find out, it's better to take the initiative." Mao Carrier Road.

Mao Mingxuan agreed, nodded, and said, "Ama don't worry, my son will be angry." ”

Mao Chengyun was relieved in his heart. His son has always done what he says. He said that if he strives to solve the yuan, it is probably no problem.

And Mao Mingxuan went back to his yard, and he didn't sleep until late when he read at night.

Since he made a decision in his heart to participate in the autumn festival in advance, he should not work harder before. Even the master of the academy advised him not to use too much force. But he knows that if you want to be foolproof, you must be well prepared.

He is a man who does not fight unprepared battles, and since he has made a decision, he must do it.

Chen had no idea about the agreement between father and son, but he also discovered that his son had recently lost weight again. Although it is a bitter summer every year, I have never lost so much weight. asked the little guy who served Mao Mingxuan, and only then did he know that he was studying hard day and night.

She didn't persuade except for being distressed. When my son is older, he knows what to expect. What she can do is to support, and then let the kitchen boil more nourishing soup so that he doesn't lose his body.

Mao Tongtong, who was far away in Chengde Summer Resort, didn't know what the Mao family had done for her. She had just finished the purse that was robbed halfway by the eighth master.

"Do you still like it?" Mao Tongtong handed it to the eighth master.

This purse from the selection of materials to the color is her heart, although the eighth master said that he has seen a lot of good embroidery, but he also has to praise Mao Tongtong embroidered is really good.

At that moment, the eighth master untied the purse around his waist and replaced it with the one embroidered by Mao Tongtong.

"Yes, you should embroider two more for you." The eighth master said unashamedly.

Mao Tongtong stretched out his hand and put it under the eyes of the eighth master, and said with a little squeamishness: "Can the master allow the slave to rest for two days?" It's been a long time since I've embroidered and I'm rusty, and I've pierced several needle holes! ”

A pair of white and tender little hands were presented in front of the eighth master, and there were two very small needle eyes on the index finger of the left hand.
