After time travel, he devoted himself to helping his father with his career.

There was a lot of noise about the separation of the Li family, and some well-known families in the county basically found out the inside story. But I don’t know how much of it is true.

Xiao Qingshan was invited to witness the separation of the Li family, and everything was settled. During this time, Shen Xian Cheng and Shi Xian Wei also began to formally take over their own work.

Shi County Lieutenant obtained the information of twenty government officials from Xie Boyuan. These government officials will be controlled by him in the future.

Lieutenant Shixian went back and opened the government officials' information. The more he looked at it, the more puzzled he became. In fact, in many county magistrates, the government service system is inherited, that is, it is passed down from father to son. But Qu County was obviously not the case. Shi Xianwei felt that the selection of government officials in Qu County was strange.

Suddenly, Lieutenant Shixian seemed to remember something. Lieutenant Shixian took out a map of Qu County and found the villages of more than a dozen government officials one by one on the map.

"Hey!" Lieutenant Shixian looked at the locations of each village. Mr. Xiao took great pains to select these dozen government officials from each village!

There are more than a dozen villages distributed in the four directions of the county, and each district elects a government official from the central village. Including the four government officials from the four districts and cities in the county, the entire county is under control!

Lieutenant Shixian couldn't help but think back to that day when the grain tax was collected. Mr. Xiao was very prestigious among the people, and the village chiefs of each village at that time were very cooperative with Mr. Xiao's work.

Shixian Lieutenant felt that he still had to have a good relationship with Mr. Xiao in the future. What these government officials really listened to was not him, the county lieutenant.

There were also Cheng Si and others. Shi County Lieutenant did not see Cheng Si and others when he got the information. After asking, he found out that Cheng Si and others were the Xiao family's guards. The Yueyin of Cheng Si and others came from Mr. Xiao, so they are not counted as people from the county government.

Regarding the fact that Cheng Si and others were not under the control of the county government, especially not under his control. Lieutenant Shixian said he was very sad. He had seen Cheng Si's skills and knew he was a master at a glance.

Shi Xianwei was studying the situation of the Yamen servants, and Shen Xiancheng felt much more comfortable. Because Shen County Cheng mainly works with Xie Boyuan and takes over a lot of county government clerical work.

Xie Boyuan was a very careful person, and he and several scribes compiled all the county government documents. Mingjia also gave Xie Boyuan some suggestions based on the principles of archiving books in modern libraries.

The final result is that there are only two situations for all the archives and records in the county government. One kind has not been sorted out, and the other kind is divided into categories and stored regularly in the file room.

When Shen Xiancheng was an official in Chuanzhou Prefecture, he followed his boss, Mr. Tongzhi, to sort out the files of Chuanzhou Prefecture.

Before coming to Qu County, Mr. Tongzhi once comforted himself that there was no county magistrate in Qu County before, and all the files in the county needed to be sorted out. Even several subordinate officials who were jealous of his promotion also joined in, clearly gloating and laughing at himself.

Now, Shen Xiancheng looked at the list of files in the file room in his hand and went to the file room again. Shen County Cheng just wants to laugh three times now, and even wants to write a letter to Master Tongzhi: "Come! Take a look! This is called the archives room!"

After a few days of rest, the Shi family began to adapt to life in Qu County. Nowadays, there are too many people coming in and out of the county government office. The main entrance to the backyard is no longer used. Now people enter and exit through the side door or the back door.

Mrs. Shi felt that she was older than Mr. Dong, and her family was from a prefecture, so she did not want to have any contact with Mr. Dong. After all, she had to bow to Mr. Dong when she met her.

Miss Shi had been dissatisfied since she was choosing a yard on the day she moved. She fell in love with Mingjia's previous yard.

Mrs. Shi also felt that the courtyard was suitable for her daughter, but in that case, the concubine and concubine would have to move to a smaller courtyard. Mrs. Shi was naturally happy, but it was obvious that the small courtyard was separated.

When the eighth day of the Lunar New Year arrived, Mr. Dong came out and met Mrs. Shi and got to know each other. Mrs. Dong went back to her room to rest, but left Mrs. Shui behind, saying she was helping introduce the entire county government house.

Just as Mrs. Shi was about to move her concubine and concubine to the small courtyard, Mrs. Shui stopped her. Her young lady would not live next door to a concubine and concubine. If that were the case, her young lady would move back to her original yard.

Mother Shui is Dong's personal mother-in-law, and she is standing here to represent Dong. If Mingjia moves back to her previous yard, then Miss Shi will be the neighbor of Mr. Shi's concubine.

The thought of this arrangement would make Mrs. Shi angry to death. If this matter was reported back to Sichuan Province and the official wives who had tea together before found out, he would be completely embarrassed.

In the end, Mrs. Shi had no choice but to coax her daughter to live in the small courtyard next to Mingjia. For this reason, Mrs. Shi felt very distressed and took out a set of golden headscarves from her dowry for her daughter, and then coaxed her daughter into reluctantly agreeing.

Mrs. Dong met Mrs. Shi on her first day, and heard Mrs. Shui come back and talk about the follow-up events.

Mrs. Dong knew that Mrs. Shi was not easy to get along with, so she called Mrs. Yan. The Xiao family currently only has four little maids. Mrs. Dong asked Mrs. Yan to take two of them back, and ordered Mrs. Yan not to let Ming Jia alone come into contact with the Shi family.

When Mrs. Yan led the little maid back to Mingjia's small yard, Mingjia happened to come back from martial arts practice in the front yard. She was very happy when she saw the two little maids her mother had given her and said she wouldn't need so many people.

"It's just that my yard is small. No matter how many maids there are, I can't accommodate it. Otherwise, my mother will send three of them here, leaving only one for Mother Shui to keep an eye on." Ming Jia felt that her mother was really afraid that she would be bullied. ah!

With all the work on track, Xiao Qingshan led the leadership team of Qu County to start preparing for the first major event of the new year - the Lantern Festival.

It is no longer convenient for Mingjia to directly participate in their conversation, but fortunately, Mingjia and Xie Boyuan now have a tacit understanding.

In the past, Xie Boyuan, besides teaching his two children to read every day, he also took a few scribes to sort out the county annals and historical files of Qu County. Now this job is officially handed over to Shen Xiancheng.

Now Xie Boyuan's biggest pleasure every day is chatting with Mingjia. He now likes to listen to Mingjia's thoughts on many things. Because there are many viewpoints that Xie Boyuan has never thought of before.

With the improvement of staff in various positions of the county government, Xiao Qingshan has officially moved the place where government affairs are discussed from the large study room in the front yard to the meeting hall of the county government office.

Today, three Qu County leaders plus the master sat together to discuss issues related to the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival. Originally, time was tight, and because of the unexpected event at the year-round market, Xiao Qingshan didn't want to do it.

But he couldn't stand the repeated persuasion of Shen Xiancheng and Shi Xianwei. In fact, Xiao Qingshan was very persistent at first, but in the end Xie Boyuan couldn't stand it anymore.

Xie Boyuan went to Xiao Qingshan alone and told Xiao Qingshan directly that the two wanted to use this lantern festival to show their abilities to the county government as soon as possible and make acquaintances with wealthy households in the city.

Xiao Qingshan suddenly realized it at this time, but he still didn't understand it.
