Sitting on the bed in the merchant marine room, the slightly cramped space is a little oppressive.

Looking at the trees that keep flowing backwards outside the window, the acacia elm, willows, pines, and cypresses are densely spread along the official road. The underside of the tree is overgrown with weeds and competing to grow.

But it couldn't cover the green rice fields in the rear. The rhododendron daffodils on the edge of the field greet spring first, the magnolia kapok reports spring again, and the wild flowers compete for beauty.

Just a few days after the second dragon raised its head in February, it was full of busy people, the warm wind blew, and the seedlings were constantly swaying in the water, swinging out circles of ripples, which was particularly beautiful.

Jia Qiong was also a little speechless, and even more ashamed, her body was still too thin, and she still needed to exercise regularly after reading in the future.

Standing on the bow of the boat, wearing relatively thick clothes, but I couldn't bear the spring breeze in February, and I only felt that the spring was cold.

However, in the fields, those busy people only wore thin shirts with sleeves and trousers, although it was for waterproofing, but watching them constantly wipe their foreheads with towel sleeves, I knew that they were constantly sweating.

Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest 10,000 seeds in autumn. There is no idle land in the four seas, and the farmers are still starving to death.

Thinking about the slightly better life now, I am full of emotion.

Jia Qiong looked at the scenery that moved all the way backwards and understood that this was her turning point. Life will be very different in the future! The sorrows of the past have passed, just like this scenery walking behind you and slowly moving away.

As long as you forge ahead, overcome all kinds of difficulties, and worship Jinluan, then the effort is worth it.

After a few more days, he finally arrived at Dongchang Mansion, and Shen Fu is now the prefect of Dongchang Mansion.

The canal port is at the west gate of Fucheng, and he said goodbye to Li Xiang, the shopkeeper of the Xue family.

"Shopkeeper Li, there is a lot of trouble this time, thank you for going to Shenjing Qiong in the future." Jia Qiong looked at Li Xiang, who sent him off the boat, and arched his hand.

Li Xiang saw that Jia Qiong was so polite, and he was a person who traveled from south to north, and he was still quite good at talking about the scene, so he politely replied:

"Xiao Jia Gongzi is polite, the Jia Xue family is relatives, and it is natural for them to help each other. And the owner has already said hello, no matter which merchant ship, as long as you come, there is a place. ”

He also knew that Jia Qiong went south this time to prepare for next year's imperial examination, such a young son is famous in Shenjing, and he will definitely be able to make a difference in the future, if the Jia family operates a little more, the future will definitely be extraordinary.

I didn't know it before, but now that I know it, it's good to have a good relationship.

After a round of compliments between the two, Li Xiangfu got on the boat and headed south, and Jia Qiong saw that he was pulling out, and stayed for a few breaths before going to Fucheng alone.

Li Xiang was originally the shopkeeper of the Xue family in Shenjing. And Li Xiang is the same as Zhou Rui's family, their wives are all from the Wang family. You can take photos of each other.

Therefore, Li Xiang has been running in Shenjing and Jinling for a long time, so he is relatively familiar.

This time I went south and personally escorted a batch of goods away, the goods were valuable, and I didn't want outsiders to follow the ship.

If it weren't for Jia Qiong being the Jia family, and the Xue family's current head of the family, Xue Wang's sister would not have gotten on the boat if she asked Zhou Rui's family to greet her personally.

Since people give face, no matter who gives face, then Jia Qiong must admit this love, which is not big but must be had.

After paying the entrance fee at the city gate, he marched alone in the city, and the security in the city was okay, but it was hygienic, but it was not satisfactory, at least not as good as Shenjing, and even worse than the later generations.

Pedestrians rushed on the street, the street corners were chaotic, and even a few people were seen disarming their hands on the spot, and the public latrine was more than ten steps or so beside him.

Along the main road all the way to the east, the ancient county government is basically in the center of the county, so there is no need to get lost, all the way to the road. After a brief confirmation with passers-by, he came to the gate of the county office.

The two large stones on the left and right are carved into a hedgehog, like a lion and a unicorn. He bared his teeth and looked at the front with his body crooked.

There is an open space in front of the door, and there is a corridor in front of the door, which runs from east to west, and is surrounded by poles. There is a drum on one side, and the double hammers under the drum intersect, presumably it is a drum of injustice.

There was a servant standing under the door, not very tall, with a thin face, a beard on his mouth, his eyes looking around, a wooden club in his hand, and his legs and feet shaking.

The official saw Jia Qiong walking in front of him, with a dignified appearance and fine clothes, although he looked like an outsider, he was a child of a rich and noble family.

His eyes blinked and rolled twice, looking quite accidental, and he was stunned for two breaths and said:

"Which doll are you, why did you come to the mansion?"

Jia Qiong saw the official questioning, so he gave up his hand and made a scholar's salute.

said: "This errand brother, the younger brother is a personnel of the capital, the Dongchang Mansion is my uncle, and his son is a senior brother in the same sect." Today, I came here from Shenjing to pay a visit, and I also asked the eldest brother to pass on one or two. ”

After speaking, he bowed again.

After hearing this, the official was stunned, with a look of joy in his eyes, and then looked at Jia Qiong suspiciously.

said: "You said that you are an adult's nephew, but there is a post." ”

Jia Qiong was stunned when he heard this, he really didn't prepare, although he saw Jia Dairu prepare once, but he really didn't have this habit, every time he went somewhere, he talked to the porter, and then let him go directly.

In the previous life, it was just a registration or a phone call, regardless of whether it was really used in the previous life or the present life.

After thinking about it for a while, I tried to let this official report first, but I really couldn't give some more money, after all, my own money was not blown by the wind.

Before he came, he gave his mother 800 taels of 1,000 taels that Jia Zhu had given at the beginning, and kept 200 taels for himself, three 50 taels of exchange, plus a few silver ingots and scattered pieces of silver.

If it costs money because of such trivial things, it is too extravagant, not that you can't afford it, but you are afraid of it.

After thinking about it, Fang said to the officer:

"Please forgive me, the eldest brother, I came here just after getting off the boat, and I haven't had time to prepare for the post. Besides, Xiaoke is not yet the age of the crown, how dare he come to this county to talk nonsense, and he is also bothered to report. ”

Seeing that Jia Qiong spoke in an orderly manner, she must have seen the world, and spoke properly, so it should not be fake. looked at Jia Qiong, who was not as bold as the legendary Shenjing Gongzi, pursed his lips, and then said with a straight face:

"Your Excellency is out on business today, and I am not in the house. It's better to find a place to rest first. I'll come back when the adults come back. ”

Listening to the official say this, Jia Qiong thought for a while in her heart, could it be that this official is so greedy for money, and he doesn't scatter eagles when he doesn't see money. Thinking of Shen Fu's personality again, it is certain that he is busy, and he may really go out.

And I knew in my previous life that Shen Fu's royal majesty was extremely strict, and his subordinates should not blatantly do such things.

After thinking about it again, he said, "Then please inform Uncle Shen and my senior brother." said that his junior brother Jia Qiong visited. ”

When the official heard this, he couldn't help but pat his head and say:

"Oh, what Childe said is that the villain is confused, but the villain didn't hear what Childe said just now. It should be so, but the prince of the mansion lives in the backyard of the mansion, and I need to guard the front yard in case someone sues the official but no one is on duty. ”

After speaking, he looked at Jia Qiong with an embarrassed face, but before he withdrew his palm, Jia Qiong still saw a trace of disdain and disdain in his eyes. I guess I never thought that this son from Shenjing would search like this.

Seeing this, Jia Qiong couldn't, so she had to go around to the backyard gate alone. Looking at the backyard door, it is still neat and tidy, and I think it is often cleaned.

Seeing that there was no one to guard, he took a few steps forward, picked up the copper ring, and lightly buckled it a few times.

Soon there was a string of footsteps in the inner courtyard.

I saw the door open slightly, Shen Zizheng appeared out of the door, and couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Jia Qiong standing outside the door.

A few steps forward, he had a big hug with Jia Qiong, and after a little breath, he slowly let go, held Jia Qiong's hand, and said with a smile:

"Senior Brother Qiong, I didn't expect you to come today, and I didn't write a letter in advance, let's go, and enter the hospital with me."
