The scumbag married another man. After rebirth, I will no longer be the mistress of a high-class fam

Qiu Baiwei was smiling but not smiling.

"You really should hand in this paper, or else wait for those people to continue blackmailing my sister-in-law?"

"Sister-in-law, I'm not telling you, couldn't you see such a clumsy trick? The people from Qingfeng Village didn't come to ask for the debt earlier, and they didn't come to ask for the debt until later. They only came after half a month after Hua'er died. It is said that the debt will disappear after death, even if he really owes it, the money may not be repaid, not to mention the authenticity of the IOU is not yet known."

"Fifty thousand taels of gold is not a small amount. It doesn't matter if our third house suffers a little loss. After all, my third master is an official outside and has a salary. But if you take away the business of our second house and third house, how will our second sister-in-law live?" The second master has always been a troubled person, and the second sister-in-law is struggling to support herself at home and has three children. Are you going to make it impossible for Qing'er and Ling'er to even get a wife and a dowry in the future? This is too much. "

Qin: "..."

Lin Qinrong, who was standing aside, lowered her head slightly, her eyes red.

Jiang Rongsheng frowned when he saw this scene.

At this time, a voice came from outside.

"shut up!"

Everyone was surprised.

Turning around, he saw the old lady Zou coming in from outside.

"Mother."

When Mrs. Qin saw the old lady, she felt as if she had seen a savior. She strode over to meet her, took the old lady's hand with a happy face, and helped her in.

"It's all my fault that my daughter-in-law is unfilial. She can't convince the sisters, and even the ancestors are alarmed. Mother, please hurry up."

Qiu Baiwei and Lin Qinrong looked at each other with unpleasant expressions on their faces.

"Daughter-in-law meets mother."

"Mother is well."

The two of them paid tribute to the old lady one after another.

Song Anning naturally knelt down. The old lady passed by her, looked her up and down, and nodded, "Hua'er passed away, so sorry for you. I heard that you were almost kidnapped by Qingfeng Village two days ago. Are you not scared?"

Song Anning shook her head, "No, fortunately Nanny Lin fought to the death to protect her, and my granddaughter-in-law was not injured."

"That's good."

The old lady didn't know what she thought of, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.

But in the end, he didn't say anything and took a step forward to sit on the main seat.

"I also heard the quarrel you just made. The second and third bedrooms are right. Shuyi, you are too strong. Although you have good intentions, you should explain it clearly to the second and third brothers. It can be discussed as a family. , why are you so blushing and thick-necked?"

Mrs. Qin was shocked, "Mother, it's not..."

The old lady waved her hand and interrupted her next words.

Then he looked at Qiu Baiwei and Lin Qinrong, "You two have been wronged, and I know what you said, but after all, you wrongly blamed your sister-in-law for this matter. It was my idea to let you take the money, not your sister-in-law's. .”

Qiu Baiwei and Lin Qinrong's expressions changed.

"Mother."

The old lady also did not give them a chance to say more, and continued: "But you don't get the money for free. Haven't you always wanted Qing'er and Yu'er to join the court as officials?"

Both were startled.

Jiang Qing is the son of Lin Qinrong, who is 17 years old this year. Jiang Yu is the son of Qiu Baiwei, who is only 15 years old this year.

Both of them wanted to take the imperial examination, but their talents were mediocre and they never got any results.

Among scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, merchants have always been the lowest in the Dayuan Dynasty. Otherwise, with the financial resources of the Song family, Song Anning would not have been exploited by the Qin family in the previous life.

But they couldn't pass the official examination, and they couldn't go to the countryside to farm. Even being a craftsman required skills. The men of the Jiang family were really not good at it. The only possibility was to go into business.

But if you do business, you will never get ahead in your life.

Even if there is an eldest brother in the family who is an official, as a side branch, if they continue to work in the business world for many years, their status will become humble. If the eldest brother is a friend, they will naturally look up to each other. Friends, the side branch of the business is the blood transfusion bag of the long house. How much benefit is given to them in the end does not depend on the conscience of the other party.

Therefore, they do not want their sons to go into business as long as there are other ways out.

What's more, Jiang Hua is dead now.

After Jiang Hua's death, the Jiang family had no children who were good at studying, at least not among the direct descendants. When Jiang Rongsheng's generation grows old, this huge Jiang family may really decline.

This is why Qiu Baiwei and Lin Qinrong are anxious.

Now that the old lady suddenly mentioned this matter, both of them were a little curious.

"Mom, Qing'er and Yu'er are still young. We really want them to pursue official careers, but everyone knows that the scientific examination is difficult. How can it be done in just one or two years? Mother, please give me more Time, the daughters-in-law must supervise their children and strive for them to pass the exam as soon as possible."

The old lady waved her hand and said with a smile: "It's good that you have this intention, but the way to the imperial examination is like tens of thousands of people crowding a single-plank bridge. The natural scenery of the past cannot be passed, and it is not without sadness and even a wasted life. In this case , why bother fighting with others? Although our family is not the emperor's noble family, we still have our own way."

She said and coughed twice.

Mrs. Qin quickly served the tea and handed it over.

The old lady took two sips of the tea and moistened her throat. Then she looked at the anxious-looking second daughter-in-law and third daughter-in-law, and continued: "To be honest, although my old lady is old, my mother-in-law is still in the court. If you have some connections, but not other things, it’s okay to recommend one or two guys.”

"The reason I asked you not to mess with Qingfeng Village is not because I'm afraid of them, but because I sent someone to send a letter to the capital some time ago, asking them to recommend Qing'er as an official. Yu'er is still young, so she can wait. Qing'er will be eighteen in a few months, so she can go to court first to practice."

"That person has recently replied to my letter and said that he will find an opportunity. This is a sure thing, but if it is revealed at this time that someone in our Jiang family owes debts and refuses to repay, and is also related to bandits like Qingfeng Village, even if If it is false, if it reaches that person's ears, he will also think that our son of the Jiang family has bad conduct. If he refuses to recommend Qing'er again, won't his career path be cut off?"

"After all, money is something that is not a thing of the ordinary people, and being an official is the right way. As long as Qing'er enters the court, and in a few years, when he has established a firm foothold and then brings Yu'er in, won't the next generation of my Jiang family have the glory? Guaranteed?"

"Don't just look at immediate interests. Think more and take a longer-term view."

Qiu Baiwei and Lin Qinrong were shocked after hearing what she said.

If you want to become an official in the Dayuan Dynasty, in addition to the imperial examination, there is indeed an imperial examination system.

However, the imperial examination system requires the recommendation of at least a third-grade official or above. Once hired, the future is indeed much smoother than that of those who pass the imperial examination.

The two were excited for a while.

"Mom, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing before?"

Qiu Baiwei's own family members were officials. Although she was a minor official, she also knew the ways of officialdom.

Thousands of people in this world want to be officials, but few can do it. First, they have no talent, and second, they simply don’t have the connections.
