Volume 1 Chapter 186 Ding Ze
Five days later.
Xie Kun, who was far away in eastern Zhejiang, sent a reply that made Xu He look forward to it.
In addition to talking about his own body, the letter only said two things.
First, the anti-Japanese situation in Zhejiang is very grim, the grain and grass in the imperial court have been cut off for more than a month, and the border army transferred by Lu Yun is in turmoil.
The second is that the impeachment recitals against Lu Yun in the imperial court have gradually increased recently, and he wants to go back to Beijing recently!
Xu He shook his head, food is the courage of the general, Lu Yun led the troops south without making sure that the food supply was stable, at this point, he committed a taboo in the army.
To be honest, being able to hold on for so long has made Xu He's evaluation of him go up a few notches.
At the end of the letter, Xie Kun told Xu He that he had helped in a letter to Empress Xie, asking her to help turn around the Xu family's crisis.
Although he had not yet received a reply, he reassured Xu He, saying that his sister rarely begged his brother-in-law of the emperor, and this time he opened his mouth, thinking that His Majesty would give some face.
After Xu He finished reading it, his hanging heart relaxed a little.
That's right, although the uncle has hooked up with Wang Ji through his channels, in Xu He's opinion, it is better to add a double insurance for this kind of thing.
When he had just put away Xie Kun's letter, Xie Liang walked in from outside the hospital.
Now he has nothing to do, so he uses [Auntie's house] as a permanent place to study.
In his words, anyway, in Yiling, there are many thieves at the door all day and night, so it is better to be clean in the Xu family.
As soon as he entered the door, Xie Liangcai pulled Xu He to sit in the courtyard, shaking a letter in his hand and said: "This letter, in exchange for you to cook a meal yourself at noon, can you change it?" ”
Xu He glanced at Brother Sauren: "It's a letter from Lord Siqing, right?" ”
Xie Liangcai's eyes widened: "I used to think that you were the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming, it seems that it is true, can you guess this?" ”
Xu He smiled slightly, this is actually very easy to guess, with Xie Liangcai's character, as long as it is someone he feels close to, it must be unreserved to help.
There was such a big thing in the Xu family a while ago, even if he was sitting at home, he must have thought of Xu He's difficulties, in this case, it is reasonable to write a letter to Xie Daozhi, who is an official in the capital.
Calculating the time, in the past few days, the capital should have agreed on this matter, and Xie Daozhi's reply is also the proper meaning of the question.
Therefore, there is no Zhuge Kongming, and some are only after various judgments and analyses and understanding of each other, Xu He dared to draw this conclusion.
Xie Liangcai sighed: "Then guess how the imperial court reacted to your two policies of salt law?" ”
Xu He smiled: "In addition to the people who are not transformed into mud, whether it is the cabinet Jiuqing, or the ministers of the ministries and courts, they are all unanimously approved, and even the nobles who are like clay puppets in the court on weekdays are also in favor of the reform of the salt law!" ”
Xie Liangcai was numb, and holding the letter, he unbelievably took out his father's letter and confirmed it.
Xu He hasn't finished speaking: "The candidates for the transfer of the two Huai Salt Divisions have been vacant, and this time it has also been determined, not only the transfer envoys, but also the deputy envoys, fellow intellectuals, judges and other vacancies have all been arranged this time, and they will arrive soon!" ”
Xie Liangcai pressed Xu He's shoulder, and looked up and down, left and right as if looking at a monster: "How do you know everything?" You...... My dad wrote you a letter in addition to me? ”
Xu He glanced at him and asked, "I'm curious, what is the origin of this transfer envoy?" ”
Xie Liangcai said: "Gui Zhao, the former Huguang Shilangzhong, a native of Xincheng County, Jianchang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, ......"
Xu He stretched out his hand to interrupt him: "Okay, no need to introduce, Jiangxi people, and our fellow townsman of Shoufu again, right?" ”
Xie Liangcai gave a thumbs up: "You kid Xiucai knows the world without going out, it's amazing!" ”
Xu He shook his head: "Before everyone reacts, control the salt division first, no wonder our Lord Shoufu has stood for so many years, and Xia Yangqiu, the second assistant, doesn't seem to be his opponent!" ”
Just as the two were talking, Ding Erxiao, who had been retained by Xu He, and Wang Zhu'er came to the courtyard together.
I saw Ding Erxiao arch his hand and said, "Master Xu, I've been bothering for so long, we'll go back today!" ”
Wang Zhu'er also said angrily: "Let's go back and be busy, I can't stay here for so many days, I can't eat or sleep every day!" ”
Xie Liangcai turned his head and looked at Xu He with an inquiring gaze and asked, "Who are these two?" ”
Xu He told the intersection with the two before.
Xie Liangcai looked at the two people with interest: "What are you going back for?" It's better to stay and follow Xiaohe, it's better to follow him than you to dry salt! ”
Wang Zhu'er pursed his lips when he heard this: "It's very boring here, it's better to go back and be with your brothers, poor is poor, it's better to be happy." ”
Xie Liangcai turned his head to look at Ding Erxiao: "What about you?" Xu He said that your mother has bad eyes, and there is a girl who has just come of age, for their sake, it is better for you to stay! ”
Through his understanding of the two during this time, Xu He found that Ding Erxiao was a man of few words, like Xu Peng, he was assertive in doing things, but he was well known.
Xu Peng is a brother of the same clan, many things are not easy to tell him to do, Xiao Er is in the fishing industry again, and there is only one male in the family.
There is a shortage of manpower to do some small things on weekdays, and the Ding Erxiao in front of him is indeed a good choice to help as Xie Liangcai said.
The key is that the other party is innocent, and there is no messy relationship at home, leaving him, his mother has a person of a similar age to talk to, and the girl named Juan'er can also help with some housework.
Xu He smiled and said: "Brother Ding, if you don't dislike it, you can stay with me, just use it as a worker, don't sign the deed, I will give you two wages, if you think I'm not used to living here, you can leave at any time." ”
Ding Erxiao was puzzled: "This ...... But I'm a stove! ”
Xie Liangcai said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, don't look at our little crane's young age, he has money in his hands, and he will spend money to help you settle the labor in the salt field on weekdays!" ”
Ding Erxiao couldn't help but be moved when he heard this, thinking about his blind old lady and the girl who was about to become a big girl, if she stayed in Zhangcha, she would be bitter for a lifetime, the key is to see the head at a glance.
But it's different with Xu Gongzi, these days he also found that there is no one in the Xu family, only Xu's mother and Xu He are guarding such a big courtyard, and they are cold and lonely on weekdays, and everything has to be done by the mother and son.
But how could this Xu Gongzi's ability in Zhangcha live under the people for a long time.
Such a master family can really come up at this time, and the future will be developed, maybe the girl can marry a good family.
Thinking of this, Ding Erxiao hugged his fists and bowed and said, "Young Master Xu, if you don't think I, Ding Ze is rude, Ding Ze is willing to serve Childe!" ”
It turned out that Ding Erxiao's name was Ding Ze, and this was the first time Xu He had heard of his name.
"Look, look, the snotty boy in the house, Zhang, can you learn it!"
