A few people packed up, got on the Zhu family's boat, and headed for Chongcheng County.

Chongcheng County.

Zhu Xunmiao went to Fucheng to participate in the government exam, but Zhu Qian did not follow.

His business is already very big, and now he has become the president of the Chongcheng County Chamber of Commerce, he has a lot of things to do, and he has no time to accompany Zhu Xunmiao to the exam. But although he didn't go, Zhu Qian kept thinking about Zhu Xunmiao, and he also found a small guy to pass the news back and forth, and he also knew a rough idea of the situation in Fucheng.

At noon that day, he mentioned his son to his wife again: "In two days, the government exam should be released, and I don't know if Xun Miao can be on the list." ”

"Didn't the county magistrate say that it is not difficult to find Miao's talent in the examination? It should be possible. Mrs. Zhu said.

"Also," Zhu Qian looked proud, "Xun Miao, this kid has been smart since he was a child, once I made a mistake, I didn't even see it, he could see it at a glance......"

Zhu Qian was saying when someone rushed in outside: "Master, good news!" Good news! Young master, he's hit! ”

"Really?" Zhu Qian was overjoyed.

"Of course it's true, sir, there's someone from the city!"

Zhu Qian was even more happy: "This time the government test list is so fast!" What about the others? Is it over? ”

"Mr. Li and Young Master Xu have both passed, and Mr. Li is still the head of the case!"

"I knew that Li Qingzhi was not simple!" Zhu Qian laughed: "Find someone to go to the Golden Leaf Embroidery Workshop to report the good news!" ”

Zhu Qian opened the list sent by Zhu Xunmiao and looked at it happily.

Although Zhu Xunmiao was ranked lower, he was still very happy, and asked people to give each of the Zhu family's subordinates a hundred copper plates, so that they could be happy.

When Zhu Qian was overjoyed, the Golden Leaf Embroidery Workshop was also having lunch.

At noon today, the female workers ate soybean stew.

There is not much meat, and each female worker can get a piece after cutting, but the soybeans are also fragrant with meat, plus the soup......

Bibimbap with soybeans and broth, it's so delicious!

It has been almost two months since these female workers came to the Golden Leaf Embroidery Workshop, and they have all gained weight, and the little girls in Miaoqian Village have all changed their appearance.

When they first came, they didn't know anything, they had a lot of things to learn, and Jin Xiaoye was very busy taking a lot of orders...... In the past two months, they have not returned to Miaoqian Village.

It's okay that some of them come from good families, and their parents came to the county to see them, but like Jin Mao'er...... She hadn't seen her parents in over two months!

But the golden cat doesn't miss home at all.

The Golden Leaf Embroidery Workshop is really good!

They do need to work, but not all day.

After getting up in the morning, those of them who don't need to cook can go to the neighborhood to take a look at the county, and after walking around, they will return to the embroidery workshop, and there will be white rice porridge and eggs to eat!

After breakfast, they need to work, but they do needlework, they don't need to bask in the sun or rain, and they are not dirty at all.

At noon, they had meat to eat again! If you want, you can go to the neighborhood again after eating!

In the evening, too, when they have a good meal, the sky is still bright, they can go to the shower and wash their clothes, they can also talk and chat together, or play something.

They made sandbags out of rags, sometimes threw them to play, and borrowed a chessboard from Li Damao and Li Ermao to play backgammon together.

Wait for the evening...... At first, they were laid on the floor, and they didn't live very well, but in the end, the buildings in the city were not damp at all, and they seemed to them to be very good

All right.

As for now...... The golden shopkeeper asked the carpenter to make them beds.

The bed is bunk beds, you can live on top if you want to live on top, you can live below if you want to live below, and there are curtains on the bed, and if you close the curtains, it becomes a small space that no one can disturb.

Those girls with good family backgrounds feel rare when they see the new bed, and those with poor family backgrounds like Jin Maoer like this bed are even more fond of this bed.

They don't just get beds. After they learned their craft, the golden shopkeeper bought some fabrics and asked them to make two new clothes for themselves.

Everyone was given the same fabric, and it was already cut, so they just had to sew it up...... Within a few days, they both had two beautiful clothes.

This dress is different from what they wear in the countryside, it is a style that people in the city will wear, and it looks really good.

The golden cat watched the people around her look the same day by day, looking better than before, I don't know how much, and then looking at her arms and legs with flesh......

If she came home, would her parents still recognize her?

Well, she didn't want to go home, she wanted to work in the gold leaf embroidery workshop for the rest of her life.

After eating, the golden cat ran to the kitchen to help wash the dishes.

Jin Xiaoye and the others had soybean stew on the table, as well as a large pot of kelp tofu and pork sliced soup.

Li Qingzhi would cook two or three extra dishes, but Jin Xiaoye was too lazy to do it, so he only made one more soup each time.

Add a little bit of egg and meat slices to the soup, and the soup will not be unpleasant.

Today's kelp and tofu soup was delicious, and the people at the table ate all the dishes.

After eating, everyone did not rush to work, but began to chat, chatting and chatting, and Li Qingzhi could not be mentioned.

Li Damao and Li Ermao immediately asked: "Mother, when will my father come back?" ”

"Mother, I miss my father!"

……

Li Damao and Li Ermao are looking forward to it day and night these days, and they are looking forward to Li Qingzhi coming back as soon as possible.

Jin Xiaoye said: "The government test has been completed, and in a few days, your father will be able to come back." ”

"Okay." Li Damao sighed like a little adult.

Li Ermao said: "Mother, the gentleman in the school said that Dad may be able to take the case first...... Can Dad take the first exam? ”

Jin Xiaoye said: "Mother doesn't know. Ermao, you are outside, don't say that your father can take the case first. ”

"Mother, we didn't say it, it was Mr. who said it." Li Ermao said.

As they were talking, someone came in from outside: "Golden shopkeeper, happy event! Great joy! The government examination has been released, and Mr. Li has won the first place! ”

Jin Xiaoye stood up in surprise: "Really? ”

"It's true, I heard that Mr. Li went to attend the literary meeting of Chongwen Academy the night before yesterday, and the mountain chief of Chongwen Academy still wants to accept him as a disciple!" The person who came to Zhu Qian to report the news was the little guy who was responsible for delivering the news before Chongcheng County and Fucheng.

He knew a lot about the affairs of Fucheng, and he could still speak well, so he picked out some things about Fucheng and told Jin Xiaoye at this time.

Of course, he didn't forget to tell Mrs. Xu that Xu Qifei also passed the house exam.

For a while, the people in the Golden Leaf Embroidery Workshop were all excited, and they congratulated Jin Xiaoye and Mrs. Xu.

"Congratulations, shopkeeper gold!"

"If you get the head of the government exam, it is also a sure thing to be admitted to Xiucai, the golden shopkeeper, you will be a Xiucai lady in the future!"

"The golden shopkeeper may still be a lady in the future!"

"Mrs. Xu, your son has passed the government examination at a young age, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future!"

"I knew that Qifei was a good person!"

"Mrs. Xu, your good days are ahead!"

……

Li Qing passed the government exam, which is a great joy! Jin Xiaoye, like Zhu Qian, plans to give red envelopes to the people in the embroidery workshop.

However, she is not as rich as Zhu Qian: "This is a great joy, today I will give each of you a red envelope of fifty wen!" ”

The big list in her hand has been almost done, and she has earned a lot, so it doesn't matter if she sends a red envelope to these people.

Jin Xiaoye took out a box of copper coins from the house, counted them and distributed them one by one.

"Thank you, Mr. Kim!"

"Shopkeeper Jin, you will definitely make a fortune in the future!"

"I wish the gold shopkeeper to be the champion lady!"

……

The female workers recruited in the county town happily received the money.

However, when Jin Xiaoye paid the female workers recruited from Miaoqian Village, they were embarrassed to take it: "Shopkeeper Jin, we also have money?" ”

Jin Xiaoye smiled: "Of course there is!" Up for grabs. ”

These girls happily received the money, but the golden cat didn't come.

Jin Xiaoye called her: "Cat, come and get your money!" ”

Jin Mao'er put her hands behind her back and shook her head: "Jin Shopkeeper, I don't want money, you still give me a doctor and buy medicine." ”

Jin Xiaoye smiled: "That's another thing, you take the money, and you can go outside and buy something you like." ”

"I don't want it." Golden Cat Road.

But Jin Xiaoye still stuffed the money into her hand: "Everyone else has it, if you don't have it, it's not bad." ”

The golden cat was a little overwhelmed with the money.

Jin Xiaoye pushed her: "Go to work!" ”

When the women workers heard this, they all went to work.

Jin Xiaoye happily kissed Li Damao and Li Ermao, and asked Jin Xiaoshu to help her buy some braised bean curd and braised pork back.

In the evening, the braised tofu will add meals to the female workers, and the braised pork will add their own meals!

She also began to think about what dishes to prepare for the banquet in the village in front of the temple.

In the past, the people in Miaoqian Village thought she was pitiful, but now she wants to go back and show off and let them know how well she is doing!

When Jin Xiaoye pondered about this matter, Li Qingzhi and the others were already on the boat back to Chongcheng County.

Zhu Xunmiao was very excited, if it weren't for the fact that some of his peers hadn't been admitted, he would have been even more excited.

Li Qingzhi is also in a good mood, he is now well-known in Fucheng, and then he will wait for August to go to the provincial capital to take the hospital exam.

After their boat left Fucheng, Governor Zhang took Chang Zhan and also took a boat to Linhu County.

Governor Zhang used all his connections to contact the nearby Xiang Army.

He told those people that the county order of Linhu County had raised some private soldiers and asked them to help eradicate them, and now, those people had gone to Linhu County.
