Farmer’s Blessed Girl

When Man Bao and the others were a little sleepy after eating, Mr. Zhuang came back with his hands behind his back and a guard leisurely.

He called the three of them into the room and asked again, and after hearing Man Bao said that he would not have to fight for production, he nodded and said, "I went to the teahouse today and sat down, thinking that since you are here, why don't you talk to the merchants? The students of the state school communicate and communicate, which is also considered a study tour.”

He said: "You give me your post, and I will deliver it to you tomorrow. After you have dealt with the family's affairs in two days, you will go around."

Study tour, study tour, before the word tour, Bai Erlang nodded again and again, and immediately went to get a pen and paper to write a post.

Bai Shan's heart moved, he nodded with a smile, and turned to write a post.

Man Bao wanted to take up his official posts, but Bai Shan pulled her and said, "Let's write a few now. Either Chongwen Museum will write the pen, or you can give yourself a number and write about the teacher."

Mr. Zhuang stroked his beard with satisfaction, and said to Man Bao: "There is no need to point out that it was compiled by Chongwen Museum, I heard that Shangzhou Fuxue holds literary and poetry meetings every ten days, and not only the doctoral officials of the university will be present. , that is, officials from the government and county magistrates occasionally come to participate.”

He said: "Man Bao, you are an official. Since you are in Shangzhou, you are not a public office. You should also say hello to the local officials. If you are afraid of trouble, write a letter of confession and have someone bring some capital to the capital. The soil ritual is delivered to the door."

Man Bao: "I won't make people misunderstand that I'm bullying others, do I ask them?"

Mr. Zhuang said: "You were going to ask them to do it for convenience. What are you afraid of?"

The three full treasures:  …

Mr. Zhuang said: "No matter how young the Xia clan is, it is also a native clan in Shangzhou. If they really want to make trouble regardless, the faces of Shangzhou officials are not good-looking. You have to deal with it in advance, even if they are not selfish and read You can be polite and fair."

"What's more, are the earth ceremonies you brought from the capital very valuable?"

That's not expensive.

Although he had no relationship with the Xia family, he still came to visit relatives, so the old Zhou family still prepared gifts.

Cough, because everyone has never met, and has no relationship, so what they prepared are all the famous soil ceremonies in the capital, which are characterized by being cheap and famous.

For example, the famous sauces in Beijing, one jar and one jar, are not expensive at all. They are often prepared by visiting relatives and friends in Beijing, because almost every household can use them.

Mr. Zhuang said: "Choose a few copies and send them along with the post, just don't be rude."

Man Bao: "Let the guard send it?"

Mr. Zhuang nodded, "You are a Beijing official, just be friendly, and you don't need to lower your attitude too much."

Man Bao and Bai Shan looked at each other and nodded.

The three pressed down on their sleepiness, and then went back to the house to get a pen and paper to write a post.

Man Bao had to write a lot, not only for literati, but also for officials.

As for the list of literati, Mr. Zhuang gave them a list and said, "These are some of the more famous students in the Shangzhou Academy that I heard about today. You can write them."

Man Bao and Bai Erlang took the four treasures of the study in a tacit understanding and then went to meet in Bai Shan's room.

She first wrote a greeting note to those literati students, and then looked at Bai Shan.

Bai Shan had finished writing, and when he saw it, he reached out and took a post and said, "I'll write two for you."

Man Bao cheered and planned to copy him.

Anyway, it's for officials, it's nothing like the same, just change the name on the head.

But Bai Shan tapped her head with a pen and said, "Be more serious, be more sincere, you can't say that you can still form a good relationship, people don't look at Tuyi's sake, but also because you have such a good article. And sincerity, I will give you a favor."

Man Bao became more serious.

So early the next morning, from Shangzhou city down to the magistrate of Guoxian County, up to Shangzhou provincial governor, all received Zhou Man's post and earth ceremonies.

The official rank of the prefect of Shangzhou is one rank higher than Zhou Man, but Zhou Man is a Beijing official, and he is a local official. By convention, the two are about the same rank.

He was a little stunned when he received such a gift, and frowned when he saw that it was written on the post that she was visiting relatives in her hometown.

Although he had never met Zhou Man, if he remembered this first female officer correctly, she should be from Mianzhou, Jiannan Road, right?

When was Shangzhou her hometown?

After thinking about it, the prefect asked someone to call the magistrate of Zhai. He planned to ask magistrate Zhai to investigate, but the magistrate didn't need to investigate, he just explained the relationship between Zhou Man and the Xia clan, and then Said: "The people of the Xia clan should be here at noon today, sir, can you go take a look?"

After thinking about it, the prefect shook his head, "It's fine for you to mediate, it's not appropriate for this official to go."

Magistrate Zhai also felt that it was inappropriate for him to go. He heard that he would not go, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and responded with a smile on his face, saying that he would mediate well for Lord Zhou and the Xia family.

At this time, Xia Xia's carriage stopped at the entrance of the inn. Xia Rui jumped out of the carriage and was about to go in to find someone. When he looked up, he saw Zhou Dalang and Wuwu Lang who had met yesterday, and he couldn't help but stop.

Zhou Dalang and Wuwu Lang also saw Xia Rui, and hurriedly turned their heads and said to Man Bao, "This is Xia Rui."

Man Bao looked up, then looked at the carriage behind him, stepped forward to meet him, smiled and saluted, "Is it Uncle Xia, is it Uncle in the carriage?"

Xia Rui looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "Yes, you are Xin Niang's daughter, right?"

The people in the car coughed, and Xia Rui hurriedly turned around to lift the curtain, "Father, why don't you go back first, I'll take them up the mountain."

Xia Xia shook his head, "No need, your uncle's granddaughter is back, I have to tell him personally if I say anything, big lady, get in the car, I'll take you to meet your grandparents."

Man Bao responded and said, "Uncle wait a minute, my parents and my husband are going too, we need to bring something."

Old Zhoutou and Qian Shi not only prepared things like incense, candles, paper money, but also paid for the inn to help steam a big rooster. If it wasn't for the conditions, they actually wanted the inn to help steam a pig's head.

Xia Xia reacted for a while before realizing that Zhou Man's parents were calling her uncle and aunt, so she couldn't help leaning against the car wall and raising the curtain to look out.

Old Zhoutou and Qian Shi were still behind, and they came downstairs at this time. The man helped them carry the sacrifices into the car. The two looked up and looked at each other.

Looking at Xia Xia, who was not much older than himself, Lao Zhoutou hesitated for a while before calling out, "My uncle..."

He is quite senior in the village, and this time he is lower than others, so he is not used to it.

Xia Xia didn't expect that the father Zhou Man was talking about was about the same age as him. He was stunned for a moment before he opened his smile and said, "This is Zhou Da's nephew, get in the car, this is the first time I've seen it..."

He looked at Old Zhou Tou carefully, and found that he was somewhat similar to Zhou Yin, especially his face and eyes.

He looked at it carefully, squeezed out a smile and said, "Let's not tell my in-laws, we can recognize it when we see it on the road. You and Zhou Yin are a bit similar."

Old Zhoutou said proudly: "That's natural, our brothers were born by the same parents, can they be different?"

It's just that the age difference is too much, Xia Xia thought, if he met him on the road, he would definitely think he was Zhou Yin's father.

See you tomorrow
