Chapter 18: Unintentionally planting willows to gain fame
Yang Qiaoyue's dung collection business has been lively for two days, and I don't know how it spreads, and everyone knows that she is the daughter of Yang Jiapei, the county Cheng.
The people misunderstood, thinking that this was Yang County's understanding of everyone's sad days in the disaster year, and instructed, so as to give relief to those who couldn't survive.
Digging out manure and picking up soil is not an easy job, but it is hope for people whose lives are on the verge of collapse.
One passed ten, ten passed hundred, and inadvertently received a wave of good reputation for Yang Jia.
Yang Qiaoyue naturally heard these rumors, although she was helpless, she didn't deliberately explain, as long as it didn't affect her plan, it didn't matter.
The county government, Lou Zhixian frowned when he heard his henchmen report the matter.
In the past two years, Yang Jia has been a literati in his work, how could he think of such a curvaceous method.
"Lord Zhixian, I have to guard against it, and one more year is a three-year evaluation. If you let him buy people's hearts and show his head, your position will be unstable. ”
Lou Zhixian nodded slightly, it is true, "I heard that Nanzhuang's move has also moved the interests of those dung heads outside the county, and the price is twice as high, so that the landlords and old fortunes will make a lot less." Now that the land is being fattened for the beginning of spring, she is doing this to provoke the anger of the people and let those people into the city. It's best to make Nanzhuang unable to do it! ”
"Yes, sir!" The henchman stepped back.
***
Yang Jiapei has been immersed in sorting out the documents of the county government for the past two days, looking at the mountains of secret documents, and his ambition is becoming more and more difficult to pay.
He has been in Yan County for two years, and he has made no achievements, and he can't finish this, I'm afraid he can't even do it in the county, maybe Mr. Teaching is his destination.
It was getting dark outside the house, and Yang Jia retracted his mind and went home.
Along the way, he found that the people who usually had a grudge against him suddenly greeted each other with a smile, saluted slowly, and heard a few sounds from time to time from Lord Yang.
This made him a little puzzled, he didn't know what was going on, Lou Zhixian would not publicize something that was good for his reputation.
On the way home, I learned that it was because of the manure collection and soil collection that my daughter Nanzhuang had helped many people who had no income and food storage due to natural disasters to avoid famine and become homeless, and finally be able to pass this year.
When Yang Jia heard this, he immediately felt ashamed, and hurriedly denied a few words.
Passers-by thought that he was modest, and he didn't want everyone to thank him, but he felt that he was of noble character, and he was worthy of being an official from Beijing, and he really wouldn't ignore everyone.
Listening to these words of praise, Yang Jiapei's face was so red that he had to leave in a huff.
Just two days ago, he was going to use family law against Yang Qiaoyue because of this matter, but he didn't expect to help him gain so much praise, which has not been done in two years.
The voice of the people is very important for the evaluation of local officials.
Back home, Yang Jiapei hadn't arrived at Dongxi Courtyard for two days, and he hesitated to walk towards Dongxi Courtyard.
In the East Xi Courtyard, there is laughter from time to time.
Today, Yang Qiaoyue and the others came back early, and she personally cooked to treat herself.
Yang Jia arrived at the door, just in time for a meal, and hesitated to go in to interrupt the harmonious atmosphere.
When Lu Shi saw him first, he shouted in surprise: "Master? What do you do standing in the doorway? ”
"It's okay, just pass by and take a look."
Yang Qiaoyue, Mu Enen, and Yang Muzhong turned around and saw Yang Jia entering the house, and got up one after another.
"Lord Yang."
"Fourth uncle."
“…… Father! ”
Yang Jia was a little embarrassed when she heard Yang Qiaoyue's stiff name.
Although the Lu family also complained in his heart that Yang Jia was eccentric, he still didn't want the father and daughter to be estranged, so he played a round game: "The master has just gone to the office, and he hasn't eaten yet, so let's eat in Dongxi Courtyard, today is the cooking of Yue'er girl herself, you haven't tasted her craftsmanship." ”
Yang Jiapei looked surprised, "You can still cook?" ”
"It's a little bit, I'm afraid the country vegetables are not to my father's taste." Yang Qiaoyue muttered in her heart, don't hurry up and leave, delay everyone's dinner.
Yang Jiapei seemed to be used to her tone of speech, so he didn't care, and sat down with the Lu family.
Yang Qiaoyue pursed her lips, she couldn't blast his father out, that was really the "great filial daughter" of the Chu Dynasty.
"The fourth uncle has oral today, although the seventh sister cooks first-class, but she doesn't cook often, I can only eat it with the light of the fourth aunt." Yang Muzhong unabashedly praised, he knew Yang Qiaoyue's cooking skills too well in the countryside for two years.
Yang Jiapei looked at a large pot in front of the table, cooking milky white soup, and many vegetarian dishes were placed around.
It doesn't seem to be anything special, I don't know why the Lu family and nephew are so exaggerated.
Lu Shi helped him scoop some dipping sauce, put the cooked vegetables in the pot into the dipping bowl, and let him taste it.
Yang Jia looked suspicious, didn't he just eat vegetarian dishes, it was so complicated.
In the entrance of ordinary vegetarian dishes, he was stunned for a moment, this rich fragrance, the just doneness of the boiled bone broth, retained the fresh taste of the vegetarian dishes.
There is also the heavy flavor of the sauce, the combination of strong fragrance, light fragrance, and sauce aroma, which makes him feel that all the deliciousness is inferior in this clear soup.
Lu Shi and Yang Muzhong were very satisfied with Yang Jiabei's reaction, and he seemed to feel that he had overreacted, and coughed lightly: "This kind of eating method has been seen in Jingshi, but this taste is much better than that." ”
"The seventh sister has always had a unique method, how can it be compared to ordinary shabu-shabu." Yang Muzhong said with a smile.
The atmosphere eased down, and several people sat around to eat, and it was finally like a decent family having a meal, so it was not lively.
During the banquet, Yang Jiapei suddenly took the initiative to ask about Yang Qiaoyue Nanzhuang: "How is your Zhuangzi?" ”
Yang Qiaoyue knew some rumors in the county, and it was not surprising that the official father was suddenly interested in her Zhuangzi.
Casually replied: "It's good! ”
Forehead...... Yang Jiapei's original intention was to know more about the situation and see if there was anyone who needed help, otherwise there would always be a feeling of benefiting in vain, making him a little shorter in front of his daughter.
"Ahem, I mean it's not going well, are there any homeless people making trouble, if there is trouble, you can ask the yamen to come forward to help you deter it."
"No, it went well." Yang Qiaoyue thought to herself, Nanzhuang's biggest trouble is your father!
I was almost choked to death by you in swaddling clothes.
Lu Shi was surprised, how could her husband suddenly care about her daughter's Zhuangzi, and it was obviously because of this incident that she came over today.
Seeing Yang Qiaoyue's reaction, it was not surprising, even Yang Muzhong and Mu Enen were also very bland.
Lu Shi saw that everyone didn't say anything, so he didn't want to ask too much.
Yang Jiabei didn't ask anything, and left after eating, without staying overnight in Dongxi Courtyard. A hint of depression flashed in Lu's eyes, but he didn't force it.
It was not early, and Yang Qiaoyue and the three of them also went back to the house.
On this night, contrary to the bustle of Dongxiyuan, Xiluoyuan was very quiet.
The Liu family carefully prepared a table of rich dishes, and waited for Yang Jia to come here for dinner, and waited for half an hour without anyone coming.
Only then did I know that the person had gone to Dongxi Temple, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Angry, they dumped a table of dishes, and the two children could only watch with their eyes, and finally left a plate for them to eat.
The Liu family went to the room by himself, and secretly thought to himself, this Lu mother and daughter are really a good means, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid it will be difficult to straighten up.
Yang Chen and Yang Lanhua looked at their mother who was angry again, and secretly resented Lu Shi and Yang Qiaoyue in their hearts: "Why did they come back from the countryside!" ”
The two sisters obviously felt that their father's attention and praise for them had decreased recently, and they thought that all this was caused by Yang Qiaoyue.
This kind of subtle hatred Yang Qiaoyue didn't know, and she wasn't interested, she just wanted to do a good job in Nanzhuang and cultivate the mushrooms as soon as possible.
Who knew that the sky did not follow her wishes, and when she came to Nanzhuang the next day, Zhuangzi was blocked by a group of strange strong men, shouting: "Who is the master of this Nanzhuang, get out of Laozi!" ”
Yang Qiaoyue looked at this group from a distance, obviously not to sell dung, but to come unkindly.
Slowly stepped forward and replied indifferently: "I am, may I ask what you are doing!" ”
Yang Muzhong was vigilant in front of him, although Mu Enen was nervous, it was not the first time he had seen this kind of battle, she had grown up the night her grandfather left.
