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

During this period, Mr. Dong was almost crazy busy!

In order to prepare for her two children to leave home later in the year, and to put together a decent betrothal gift list for Mingjun, Mrs. Dong put a lot of thought into it.

The betrothal gifts that Mingjia randomly ordered before were all gifts from Li Hansheng or Xie Boyuan, and they could never be given directly as betrothal gifts.

Mingjia introduced Dong to several shopkeepers in Dianzhou City. Behind each shop there was a supportive caravan.

Mr. Dong also has several connections of his own in Dianzhou. Whether it is Qumu Atu or Mrs. Duan who returned home with Li, they are all good friends of Mr. Dong.

Mrs. Dong also asked other officials' wives in the government office about their experiences. Now everyone with connections in Dianzhou City knew that Mr. Xiao's eldest son was engaged.

Everyone who works in the government office will think twice about it before they speak.

In the past, most people would call Yang Tingxuan Lord Zhizhou when they met him, and they would call him Lord Tongzhi when they met Xiao Qingshan.

Now, in this awkward period of handover, everyone has tacitly changed the title to surname plus the unified title of "adult".

Mr. Xiao will be promoted to magistrate in the next year. Although it is temporary, it is basically stable.

The people who had been keeping an eye on the marriage of the two sons of the Xiao family were now keeping an eye on the marriage even more closely. Mrs. Dong promptly let the wind out, and Ming Jun's marriage was decided.

As for Ming Jia’s marriage, she’s still young so there’s no need to worry!

"Jiajia, Mrs. Duan likes porcelain from the Central Plains very much. She heard that I wanted to buy some jade stones, so she sent a message!"

Mingjia lay facelessly on the dining table, stirring the hot milk that Mrs. Shui had just brought over with a spoon in his hand. Only when he got to the main courtyard could Mingjia have some thoughts.

"Mom, you can figure it out! Mrs. Duan must have something good in her hands!"

"If Mrs. Duan doesn't like the porcelain in my brother's private store, then go and pick it out from my store. Anyway, you won't lose money by replacing it!"

Normally, Mingjia would definitely ask to accompany Mr. Dong to Mrs. Duan's house. Whether it was negotiating a replacement or visiting Mrs. Duan's private collection, Mingjia would be very interested.

However, Mingjia has been too busy recently!

Mingjia is no longer interested in other things. Mingjia forces herself to forget those data and plans before entering the main hospital.

Wang Duo from the capital sent account books, Huang Zhengqing from Xuzhou sent two boxes of account books and drawings, and Chi Hua was also making plans for the next year.

Chi Hua has been feeling very panicked recently. This autumn, Panax notoginseng will be harvested for the first time. After processing and other processing, this batch of patent medicine is expected to be sold after the year.

Chi Hua was originally very ambitious and felt that he could do something big next year and make back all his investment in the previous years in one fell swoop.

As a result, I suddenly learned that I would be leaving Dianzhou after the next year, and that I would be away for more than half a year!

Chi Hua panicked all of a sudden, feeling like his backbone was gone!

Now, Mingjia wants Chi Hua to write down his plans for next year and the support he needs. Chi Hua just wants Master Mingjia to stay in Dianzhou.

Obviously Chi Hua's wish is impossible, so Chi Hua has been very diligent recently, just imagine the problems he may encounter every month next year, and then find Mingjia's routine solutions.

In this regard, Mingjia has only one idea:

[I took care of myself too much before, it’s time to learn to let go! 】

"Mingjia, you look very tired! Why don't you take a rest here!"

Of course Mrs. Dong was happy to see her daughter coming to the main courtyard to chat with her, but seeing her daughter looking so tired, she just wanted her to rest more.

Mingjia actually eats well and sleeps well every day. Mingjia can only say that she is tired of her current state.

"Mom, I'll go back and have a rest. I'll come back during dinner!"

Mingjia took Xinghua directly back to her yard. Mingjia looked at the sun and nodded in her heart.

[Dianzhou rarely has such good sunshine in winter, so it’s best to sleep in the sun! 】

Recently, the maids around Mingjia are all Xinghua and Meihua, and Shuang'er has been learning how to be an official wife from Mrs. Shui.

Mingjia personally carried a quilt and placed it on the soft couch next to the bed. She took off her shoes and fell asleep on the soft couch.

Mingjun went to deliver year-end benefits to several stewards at Pharmacy Village and Hot Spring Village, and met with several tenant representatives. He returned to the government office after dark.

Mingxi had been waiting eagerly in the main courtyard for her eldest brother to come back, because before he left the house in the morning, his eldest brother had said that he would help him bring back the rabbits raised in Zhuangzi.

"Big brother!"

As soon as Ming Jun stepped into the yard, he saw Ming Xi running towards him with short legs.

Mingjun quickly bent down and picked up Mingxi, wrapping Mingxi in his cloak.

"It's cold outside! Why did you run out!"

"Mingxi is not cold! Big brother, where is Mingxi's rabbit?"

"Rabbit is in my yard! I'll take you to see it after dinner later!"

"Big brother, you are the best!"

Mingxi suddenly stretched out his cold hands, hugged Mingjun's neck, and rubbed his forehead against Mingjun's neck.

This is Mingxi’s unique way of acting like a baby, but Mingjun can’t stand it!

Mingjun quickly changed the topic while carrying Mingxi into the house.

"What did you and your second brother play at home in the afternoon?"

"Second brother wasn't at home in the afternoon! Second brother didn't play with Mingxi!"

Mingjun looked down at Mingxi in his arms, and quickened his pace without saying anything.

Xiao Qingshan stayed in the front yard to have dinner during this period, so it was only Dong and a few children at dinner.

"Mom, where is Mingjia?"

"After lunch, I saw that she was very tired, so I sent her back to rest!"

Mingjun felt relieved knowing that his sister was not sick. He put Mingxi down and asked Granny Yan to take Mingxi to wash her hands.

"Xiao Tao, go and ask Mingjia to come over for dinner!"

"Yes!"

Xiaotao responded and was about to exit, but was stopped by Mingjun.

"I'll go!"

Mrs. Dong knew that Mingjun and Mingjia had a good relationship, so she signaled to Xiaotao that she didn't need to go.

"Mingjia either slept all afternoon, or woke up and went to the study!"

Dong didn't forget to remind Ming Jun about Ming Jia's possible course of action in the afternoon.

Sure enough, there is no better daughter than a mother!

Mingjun found Mingjia on the soft couch, and Mingjia was still asleep when he was found.

Xinghua, who had been guarding the door, only knew that the second young master was resting, but she never entered the house to take a look.

Ming Jun woke up Ming Jia and ordered Xing Hua to get Ming Jia's cloak and wrap Ming Jia like Ming Xi.

Ming Jia, who was dizzy from sleep, was carried directly to the dining table in the main courtyard by Ming Jun!

"Mom, let Mrs. Shui give Mingjia more advice. Now these two maids, Mingjia slept all afternoon, but no one came in to take a look!"

Dong looked at Ming Jia, who was still a little dazed, and then at Ming Jun, who had a somewhat angry face.

"I'll let Lady Shui take them for a while!"

On the way to the main courtyard, Ming Jia didn't feel the wind at all, so she finally woke up a little.

"I told Xinghua and the others not to disturb me!"

"If I don't quarrel with you, I won't quarrel with you! Then I can't even know whether you sleep on a bed or a soft couch!"
