Mingjia was hiding in the backyard, but Mingjia knew everything that happened in the front yard.

Finally, Mrs. Shui saw that the little girl who had just taken the order came back. The little maid came over and told Mrs. Shui softly that she had arranged for the little father-in-law to rest.

Mrs. Shui was half relieved. No matter how big the incident was, it looked like it wouldn't happen today. It wouldn't be a problem if she had time to prepare and react.

Mrs. Shui looked at the little maid and asked her several times to inform Miss Mingjia. Finally, I endured it. Let's wait for my wife to handle it herself.

It wasn't until dark that those who came to congratulate him slowly left. Mrs. Shi was finally willing to go back to her yard with Captain Shi Xian. Mrs. Dong had been maintaining her posture all day, and now she was too tired to hold on.

Mrs. Shui was still very anxious at first, but when she saw her wife resting on the table with one hand, she suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh.

Because Ms. Dong looked like an enlarged version of Miss Mingjia, Mrs. Shui always listened to Mrs. Yan complaining about her. She also saw Mingjia resting on the table today.

Soon Xiao Qingshan also sent away the guests and returned to the hospital. Mrs. Dong stood up to help her husband change into his official uniform, and at the same time called Mrs. Shui to ask how dinner was being prepared.

When Mrs. Shui returned to the hospital with her maid to prepare meals, Mingjun and Mingjia also arrived. It's rare for a family of four to happily gather together for dinner.

After the meal, the whole family sat together to drink water. After autumn, Mr. Dong also began to drink decoctions, and all the tea after meals was replaced by plain water. Mrs. Shui waved away the other maids, leaving only Mrs. Yan.

Mrs. Shui took out the purse that she had kept tightly in her sleeve pocket, and after thinking about it, handed it to Xiao Qingshan. When Xiao Qingshan saw that it was Dong's salary, he quickly asked Mrs. Shui to give it to Dong.

Mrs. Shui explained: "Master, the amount of money is wrong!" With one sentence, the eyes of several people in the room were attracted.

Xiao Qingshan frowned, he knew what Mrs. Shui was like. The amount of money was probably too much, so he reached out and took the purse. Xiao Qingshan opened his purse in two seconds and poured out everything inside.

There are six small silver ingots of five taels and one ingot in total. These thirty taels are obviously Dong's salary. But a few banknotes were also retrieved. Xiao Qingshan opened them and saw that each one was worth 200 taels of silver. There were five in total. This was a thousand taels of silver!

Xiao Qingshan's hands were shaking as he looked at the banknotes in his hands. This... there are too many of these! Mrs. Dong was very happy when she saw a few round little ingots, but then she noticed something was wrong with her husband-in-law.

Mingjun and Mingjia had been watching their father's movements, and they both noticed something was wrong. They all stood up and walked to their father's side. Mingjun saw at a glance that the denomination of the bank note was two hundred taels of silver.

Mingjun looked back at Mingjia, and then silently made a "two hundred taels" mouth shape with an exaggerated expression. Mingjia's eyes lit up, "It's another thousand taels. The Xiao family's fortune has been good recently."

Xiao Qingshan has already put away the banknotes in a hurry and plans to ask Eunuch Li. Mingjia stopped her father who was walking out. She probably guessed what was going on.

"Dad, take your wallet and ask the master first. Maybe he knows the reason?" Mingjia thought it was better to leave it to the master to explain.

After all, when she asked Xie Boyuan before, Xie Boyuan actually teased her. Then let Xie Boyuan handle this matter! For such a great contribution, he was only given one thousand taels of silver.

The founding emperor of Daliang was quite picky, but Ming Jia soon felt relieved. After all, the Shixian Lieutenant's contribution is greater for this credit, but it's not just that he got a few jade ornaments and was promoted to the seventh rank of county magistrate!

Mrs. Dong was a little worried that the extra money would cause trouble for her family. Now Mingjia would tell Mr. Dong directly as long as it was not too important.

"Mom, you don't have to worry. I heard my master mention it before, and the reward given to my father will not be kept in plain sight. I think this is the reward that Eunuch Li really wants to send to Qu County!"

When Ming Jia said this, Dong felt relieved. "That's good, otherwise I'd rather not have this..." Mrs. Dong also knew that there were some things she couldn't say, so she quickly stopped talking.

Mingjun and Mingjia looked at each other and smiled. The mother had explained it, and the father would let the master handle it. The brother and sister stayed with Mr. Dong talking for a while before leaving the hospital and going back to rest.

Mingjia was actually a little greedy for the one thousand taels of silver, so she thought a lot about it along the way. However, in the end, I still felt that the one thousand taels should be kept by my parents.

Mingjia returned to the small study in her yard and began to plan her property and business. The more she thinks about it, the more she feels that she is not short of money now, but in fact she is short of people.

She had the money brought back from her brother to use, and she had expanded her business a lot this year, and Mingjia was worried that she would be too busy. After three years of training, shopkeeper Li also brought in a few people who were barely useful.

But shopkeeper Li still needs to keep an eye on it from time to time. The most troublesome thing is Li's accounting office. I don't know if it is because ancient times paid more attention to liberal arts. Mingjia has never met anyone who is good at arithmetic.

Mingjia wanted to go to a high-paying accounting office among the failed students, but that was not the ambition of others.

Of course, what attracted Mingjia the most was the fact that storekeeper Li had said that the descendants of the Li family would learn to be storekeepers or accountants since they were young. However, since the Li family's accident, the Li family moved to Chuanzhou City to settle down.

However, this incident still lingered in Mingjia's mind. Always remember, there will be reverberations.

Eunuch Li got up early the next day after a night's rest. The biological clock that has been developed all year round will wake up on time in any environment. The little father-in-law didn't need the servant to follow him, so he walked around the yard by himself.

Those who come from the palace know best where they can go and where they cannot go. Eunuch Li was just wandering around the front yard when he suddenly heard the sound of "Whoosh! Whoosh!" It seemed like someone was practicing sword practice.

Eunuch Li followed the sound and looked for it, then stopped after a distance. I saw a man who looked like a guard, instructing a young master to practice swordsmanship.

The young master looks about eleven or twelve, and he wields a dagger in style. His facial features look somewhat similar to those of the county magistrate.

The young master lowered his eyes and thought about the scene when the reward was announced yesterday. There seemed to be a little boy kneeling behind Mr. Xiao, but he lowered his head and could not see his appearance clearly.

He remembered that Mr. Xiao's eldest son was born in the first year of Kaiyuan, and he was only ten years old now. From this point of view, the young master is not short in stature. He is as tall as an eleven or twelve-year-old child.

After finishing each set of sword skills, Ming Jun looked at Uncle Thirteen happily, looking forward to Uncle Thirteen's praise. Thirteen just smiled and deliberately said nothing.
