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

After Mingjia was sent back to the county office by shopkeeper Li, she hurried back to the backyard. She had to hold Mr. Dong's arm and act like a baby, then have dinner with Mr. Dong, and then go to the study to read the books copied by her brother. She would choose some suitable ones and send them to the readers. Building, let people copy and sell.

As soon as Mingjia entered Dong's yard today, she discovered that there was an extra mother-in-law. Mingjia looked at him a few more times because he looked a little serious.

Ms. Dong is currently learning to read account books. She is literate. When she first got married, her husband knew that she was illiterate, so he offered to teach her to read. After so many years, she can read more simple books.

Seeing her daughter running in, Mrs. Dong hurriedly put down her account books. Originally, Ms. Dong thought she should discipline her daughter for actually running to play in the front yard, but her anger subsided after her daughter hugged her and acted coquettishly.

Mrs. Dong always thought that her youngest daughter was playing in the study room in the front yard with her son. She never knew that her youngest daughter went directly out of the county government office. There is no way, Dong is also very busy. To learn to be an official wife, her daily schedule of classes is also very full.

Quickly calling Mrs. Shui to serve the meal, Mrs. Dong took her daughter out to eat. By the way, I would like to introduce Mrs. Yan to my daughter. After all, she will be her personal mother-in-law from now on.

When Mingjia saw Mrs. Yan salute to him, her movements were very beautiful, and she was not slow at all because of her age. Knowing that this is a mother-in-law who has undergone strict training since childhood, I can't help but wonder: "Mother, where did you find such a powerful mother-in-law?"

Mingjia now knows the role and deterrence of a good mother-in-law. A few days ago, Mr. Dong held a flower banquet. Many matrons from major families in Qu County were invited, and many of them were waiting to see Dong's joke.

It has been two months since the Xiao family took office, and the major families have already found out about the Xiao family's background. Especially Dong, a refugee who was sold to Mr. Xiao by his own father, could actually have Mr. Xiao all to himself without having a concubine.

In the hearts of the matrons of the houses, Mrs. Dong was not taken seriously at all, and the official wife who had only been an official for two months actually learned how to hold a flower banquet. If the heads of each family hadn't wanted to please Mr. Xiao, these matrons might not have come to the flower banquet.

The flower banquet finally ended without any danger. During the process, the Huang family's mistress tried to embarrass Mr. Dong several times, but Mrs. Shui blocked her back. Several mistresses also noticed that Mrs. Shui was unusual. They were a little unsure but were more honest.

Ming Jia followed Dong's side throughout the whole process and saw how powerful Mrs. Shui was. I also didn't miss several mistresses secretly sizing up Mrs. Shui. Mingjia was extremely lucky to have bought Shui Pozi in the capital.

Mingjia was thinking about Granny Yan. After dinner, she was intimate with Dong for a while and then planned to go to the front yard.

Mother Yan automatically followed the young lady, but Ming Jia waved her hand to stop her: "Mother Yan has just arrived in Qu County. She has been tired all the way. Let's go rest today and let Mother Shui take me to the study. Mother Yan will come to my courtyard early tomorrow morning. !”

Mrs. Yan stopped, bowed and expressed her gratitude to Mingjia. Then he turned sideways to make way for Mrs. Shui, who quickly followed.

After thanking Mrs. Dong, Mrs. Yan went back to her room to rest. She was not in a hurry. It was only the first day and she would always be able to gain the young lady's trust.

"Granny Shui, do you know the origin of Granny Yan? She looks very serious~~~" Mingjia asked Granny Shui after leaving Dong's courtyard.

Mrs. Shui has long seen that the young lady is precocious. The young lady is very busy every day, but she pays no less attention to the inner house than the madam does. The newly bought little girls are still learning the rules, and the lady has already sent someone to check out the situation at home.

Mingjia once asked Mrs. Shui to give her the information of several little girls. Two of the girls' families were from local rural areas, and they also had parents, younger brothers and sisters at home.

Ming Jia directly told a maid like Mrs. Shui that no matter how talented she was, she could not be Dong's personal maid. He was afraid that his parents and relatives would inspire him to have bad thoughts and ambitions that would harm Mr. Dong.

Mother Shui naturally knows these things. Originally, she planned to spend money to find someone to investigate, but unexpectedly, the young lady asked someone to investigate earlier. The lady asked Cheng Si and others to handle this matter, which was more suitable than her. Checked it out in detail.

The wife has not considered checking up on the family situation before the servant was sold into the house. Mrs. Shui is very worried about whether the wife can really manage the back house with such a big heart. Fortunately, the lady is here.

Mrs. Shui felt that Mr. Xie valued the young lady very much. If the young lady trusted Mrs. Yan, she might be able to protect the young lady better. "Back to Miss, this Mrs. Yan is the Mrs. Yuan who was specially found for Miss from the capital by Master Yuan."

Mingjia stopped instantly, "Uncle Yuan found it from the capital?" Mrs. Shui quickly answered: Yes.

After walking a few steps, they arrived at the study room in the front yard of the county government office. Xie Boyuan and Ming Jun were already reading there. Mingjia asked Mrs. Shui to go back and walked into the study.

"Jiajia, how are the preparations at the bookstore?" Xie Boyuan asked when he saw Mingjia coming in.

Ming Jia took two steps to the desk: "We are basically ready. I have copied 20 copies of each book on the first floor. There are more copies of the question books of the college examination and the provincial examination on the second floor, and I have copied 20 copies of each book. Only 5 copies were copied for the county examination.”

The county examination was for young students. In the previous dynasty, young students were also tested on the analysis of some articles and sentences. But in this dynasty, many scholars stopped studying because of the war. The imperial examination had just been resumed a few years ago, and the children's students only took some dictation and fill-in-the-blank tests, purely to test their memory.

As long as a scholar can memorize several books from the Four Books and Five Classics and write silently, he will be successful. Therefore, the question booklet of the county examination can at best serve as a key point for the basic imperial examination textbooks. Look at which fragments or sentences are tested more frequently.

The question books for the college examination and the provincial examination are much more comprehensive and more readable. Of course, there is a simpler reason: most of the scholars who have not yet taken the Tongsheng examination are poor, so they prepare the least question books.

"Isn't it a little short? How about preparing more books?" Ming Jun recalled the way the scholars circled the bookshelf that day, and felt that 20 books may not be enough!

Mingjia felt that she wanted to tell her brother about her strategy: "Things are rare and valuable. I plan to sell 20 copies in two batches. And Zhiqulou can accept reservations."

"Reservation?" Xie Boyuan now likes to listen to the chat between the brother and sister, because he found that the little girl only relaxes when facing her brother Mingjun, and often talks about some very novel ideas.

Mingjia twitched her mouth, why did she forget that there were other people in the study again. "Yes, Shopkeeper Li and I have neither taken the imperial examination. Neither of us are sure which books are more popular. There are only a limited number of copyists. Naturally, which book has the most reservations, we will arrange for more copies to be made!"

Mingjia was not prepared to explain to Xie Boyuan about hunger marketing. After all, it’s not marketing, their production capacity really can’t keep up!

Not wanting Xie Boyuan to continue questioning, Ming Jia thought of Mrs. Yan and quickly asked Xie Boyuan: "Uncle Yuan, where did you find Mrs. Yan?"
