When the common people are busy, they farm and usually come out to build houses.

There is food, work, wages, and cheap and good-looking fabrics in Jixiang Town, which has improved the lives of the people for a while.

Lord Liu's three-year evaluation was excellent, and he was promoted to two levels, and he was transferred to another place to become a prefect.

The official position in Jiangnan is already in demand, and Jixiang Town, which is placed on the tip of His Majesty's heart, naturally has many people who are willing to come.

In order to allow the people to continue to treat Jixiang Village as well, and also to cooperate with Li Yuanqing and Gu Shao, the people who came over were also people trusted by Emperor Zhou Ping.

However, he will not be able to take office until March next year.

laughed all the way, arrived at the county seat, and went straight to Gu's house.

Old Madam Gu and Gu Shao received a message from Liu Pan'er before, so they waited at home early this morning.

Sweet peach sweet apricot, the two came out to greet them.

Seeing Liu Pan'er Tiantao smiled and said, "The old lady and the young master are waiting, knowing that the lady and the general are coming, they have been looking forward to it for a long time!" ”

Liu Paner smiled: "There are two girls!" ”

Sister Mao'er in the back hurriedly took out two purses, which contained two taels of silver as a New Year's reward.

Sweet Peach and Sweet Apricot laughed and thanked, "Thank you, Madame!" ”

When the group came to the main courtyard, Mrs. Gu was looking forward to it.

Seeing that Liu Pan'er brought the child over today, Mrs. Gu smiled, "Hey, come and show me!" I haven't seen you for a few days, and I miss you again. ”

Several children ran over to salute Mrs. Gu and said auspicious words.

The maid also brought it, and there were gifts on the plate.

Li Dabao actually had a double share in his hand, his face was puzzled, and he looked at Old Madam Gu, "Old Madam, why do you give me a double portion?" Did I bring this one to Sister Afang? ”

Old Madam Gu smiled, reached out and touched Li Dabao's head, "I still have it for Sister Afang, let your mother take it with you when you leave, and hand it over to Afang." Both are for you. ”

Li Dabao looked puzzled, and looked at his younger brothers and sisters, "Thank you for your love, but I'm curious!" ”

Old Madam Gu smiled, "Your mother took her younger brothers and sisters to the capital, and your child stayed at home to take care of the house, and took care of the inside and out very well." This extra part is the reward I gave you, Dabao is really very responsible. ”

Hearing this, Li Dabao smiled, "Thank you, Grandma Gu, for the reward." My dad said that he was not at home, and I was the pillar of our family. ”

Old Madam Gu was very relieved and envious, "You are really good." It is said that three-year-olds look big, and eight-year-olds look old. Pan'er, these children in your family are all right. ”

The children were very happy to be praised by their elders.

It was quite warm outside, and Gu Shao and Li Yuanqing took their children to walk around the garden.

Liu Pan'er chatted with Mrs. Gu, "Old lady, come over tomorrow to give a gift to you, and there is a little little matter, I want to ask the old lady for help." ”

Old Madam Gu smiled, "We have been together for a long time, you can tell me if you have something." If I can help, I will not refuse. ”

Liu Pan'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Then thank the old lady first!" Sister Xiaohua's two daughters, Ah Fang and Ah Li, are fourteen and thirteen after the New Year, and they are at the age of kissing. ”

"Sister Xiaohua showed Ah Fangxiang a young man for a while, working under Yuan Qing, he is very clever, and he is a good family business."

"Ali, Sister Xiaohua also wanted to tell her such a thing, but she admitted that she likes to read people. My roots in Jiangnan are shallow, and I don't know anyone who reads. ”

"The old lady is highly respected and respected in Cuiyang County, and she knows more about Cuiyang County than I do, so I want to ask the old lady to help Ali talk about family affairs!"

After hearing this, Old Madam Gu thought for a while, "According to Ali's current conditions, it should be no problem to say that she is a lifter!" ”

In just one sentence, Old Madam Gu has thought about it before and after, and she can still tell what kind of reader Ali said is appropriate.

Liu Paner's eyes lit up, "I also think about it in my heart, if I find a showman, if I can't pass the exam, I will be a sour showman for the rest of my life, and I still feel wronged by our Ali." ”

"If I am a jinshi, I have a great future, and I may not be able to look down on Ali. Even if you look at it now, there must be other intentions. Yuan Qing and I didn't dare to respond to such a family matter. ”

Old Madam Gu smiled, understanding what Liu Pan'er meant.

"I know a lot of people in Suiyang County, and I can also help with each other. Ali is a good child, kind-hearted and capable, but at the same time, she is also sharp. ”

"Such a girl has not been taught well since she was a child, and she does not have so many twists and turns in her heart. If you marry into such a complicated family, although the foundation of the in-laws is thicker, there are many rules at the same time. ”

"Not only do I have to serve my mother-in-law, but I also compete with each other and compete with each other. Ali, this kid is straight-hearted, and if she enters such a family, she will inevitably suffer. ”

"Even if you have a long plan in the future, it will only grow up after suffering a lot of losses. With your and your little flower's love for your daughter, you must be unwilling. ”

was really said by the old lady, Liu Paner and Liu were worried about these at the beginning.

"It's easy to find a family, it's usually a widow with a son, and this new daughter-in-law is treated as an outsider everywhere, which is really difficult."

"If you look for those families with complicated families, just like the old lady said, the father-in-law and mother-in-law have a big family, Ali, the child, who is good at business, but it is lacking in dealing with these people's sophistication and scheming."

"So after thinking about it, we were all worried, and we didn't know what to find for the child, so we came to ask the old lady for help."

Old Madam Gu smiled, "You really care for your children, so it will be difficult to choose." Actually, I have a candidate here, I say it, how about you listen to it? ”

Liu Pan'er was interested, and hurriedly asked, "Old lady, you say, I'll listen." As long as I can find a reliable husband for my child, I am willing to work hard. ”

Old Madam Gu thought for a moment, thought for a while and said: "Hehe, in fact, this child is a side branch of our Gu family, his parents died early, and his parents died of illness at that time, and they spent all the money in the family, leaving only a two-entry yard. ”

"The child was eight years old at the time, and I saw that the child was pitiful, so I took it and raised it by my side and sent it to the school to study. This kid is a good reader, he was admitted to Xiucai three years ago, he is sixteen years old this year, and he was admitted to Juren again, but his ranking is not very good, and he is the first from the bottom. ”

"Originally, after the Chinese New Year, he didn't plan to go to the capital to catch the exam, he felt that he couldn't pass the exam, and he didn't want to waste money, but Shao'er and I both felt that he should go to the capital to try. It doesn't matter if you can't pass the exam, the key is to feel the atmosphere of the exam, do some questions, and accumulate experience. If it doesn't work this time, it doesn't matter, with experience, come back and study hard for another three years, and maybe you will be able to win next time. ”

His parents died early and he had no family foundation, except for a yard, he relied on Mrs. Gu to take care of everything he has today.

The disadvantages are obvious, but there are also many advantages!
