Chapter 400: The father-in-law looks at his son-in-law, and the more he looks at him, the more satis

Xie Yuan followed the housekeeper through the rockery and walked to the study. He saw his mother-in-law and father-in-law in the distance. He walked quickly to them, knelt down and gave a big salute.

"Xie Yuan, my son-in-law, has met my parents!"

Jiang Wen didn't expect that Xie Yuan would salute them. He was surprised and at the same time very happy. This showed that he cared about his daughter, so he respected him so much.

Jiang Wen leaned over and helped Xie Yuan up and said, "Get up quickly, let's talk in the study."

"it is good!"

After a while, in the study, Xie Yuan and the other three sat down respectively. While Jiang Wen looked at his son-in-law calmly, Xie Yuan also looked at Jiang Wen. He is about seven feet tall, with a thin build and a kind face. Even though he is middle-aged, he is still elegant. It can be seen that he must have been a famous handsome man when he was young.

Mingyue is more like her father, and she is very similar to her father-in-law.

Jiang Wen lowered his head to hide the glimmer in his eyes while drinking tea. He had known for a long time that his son-in-law was good-looking and had extraordinary bearing, but when he saw him today, he realized that his son-in-law was really majestic and beautiful.

Over the years, he has supported many poor students and met many scholars, but his son-in-law is the most outstanding. Although he doesn't want to admit it, he has to say that Xie Yuan is better than the people he secretly fell in love with for his daughter.

"Did Mingyue have any trouble before you came? Are Putao and Tuanzi okay?" Shen Bingxin looked at her son-in-law and asked.

"Ming Yue knows the general situation very well and has repeatedly told me to be more filial to the two elders on her behalf."

When Jiang Mingyue and Jiang Wen mentioned their daughters, the expressions on their faces became much gentler.

"Grapes and dumplings are growing very fast. They look the same every day. They were already able to sit down before I came."

Jiang Wen felt a little uncomfortable when he mentioned his grandson and granddaughter. They were all sitting down, but he hadn't seen them yet.

Shen Bingxin quickly noticed the loneliness in her husband's eyes. Knowing that he probably missed the child, she held her husband's hand comfortingly.

"Has it been a smooth journey?"

Xie Yuan did not hide it from them.

"It was extremely unfavorable. I set off on the 12th day of the twelfth year. Logically speaking, I would arrive in early July. If my father-in-law and mother-in-law hadn't sent someone to pick me up, I probably wouldn't have been able to arrive even today."

"What are your plans next?" Jiang Wen calmed down and looked at his son-in-law and asked.

"Next, I will take over and straighten out the affairs at the Yamen first."

Jiang Wen nodded and told his son-in-law about the situation of various officials in the yamen.

"Thank you dad. With the information dad gave me, I should be able to fully take over the Yamen soon."

Jiang Wen said 'hmm' and asked, "What's the situation with the Fifth Prince?"

"Obviously he is here to promote farm fertilizer, but actually he is here to help my son-in-law. The Lord is afraid that my son-in-law will not be able to hold his own when he first arrives in Yuanjiang Mansion."

"I see! Because of this fifth prince, Yuanjiang has become much more peaceful recently."

Jiang Wen paused and whispered: "Since Zhang Zhongyue returned to Yuanjiang Mansion, he has been secretly targeting and cannibalizing the Shang, Lu, and Qian families. If it hadn't been for the arrival of the fifth prince, the two families might not have been able to survive for long."

Xie Yuan had expected this before.

"He is targeting our family."

"Some time ago, he sent someone to spy on our family for a period of time, but since our family was defeated, he didn't waste so much time on us."

"This puts me at ease. In the next one or two years, our family will have to hide its capabilities and bide its time."

"I understand. The new magistrate of Qinghe County is my son-in-law's classmate?"

"Well, we are in the same Sanding class. I specially invited him to come to Yuanjiang Mansion to help me."

"Does that mean you can trust it?"

Xie Yuan nodded.

"I have raised some people in Qinghe County, should we tell Magistrate Sun about it?"

Xie Yuan knew very well who his father-in-law raised.

"I will tell him personally later that with him in charge of Qinghe County, those people can appear openly and openly in front of others."

Jiang Wen was very satisfied after hearing this.

Xie Yuan stayed at Jiang's house for most of that day and did not return to the Yamen until the afternoon. By then, Chen Rong and Zhou Bin had packed up the Yamen's inner house.

According to what his father-in-law said, Xie Yuan summoned a clerk named Shu to him. He followed him around the yamen and learned some information from him.

"How many servants are there in the Yamen? How many people are there in each shift? How many clerks are there in the fourth room? Has the Secretary of Agriculture become independent? How do you get to work on weekdays?"

After the clerk finished answering, he then asked: "Does Mr. Cao have any old practices in the Yamen? When do county magistrates from various places usually come to the city to report?"

Xie Yuan's questions were many and detailed. The clerk was a little careless at first, but then he became much more serious. By the end, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and his whole person went from calm to nervous. Fortunately, he answered all the questions Xie Yuan asked.

The two of them asked and answered questions like this, and Xie Yuan had a general understanding of the situation in the yamen. After they walked around the yamen twice, Xie Yuan asked the clerk to go back, and he returned to the study to give some instructions. Your Majesty, my wife writes a letter.

At the same time, Jiang Mingyue said goodbye to her tribe and returned to Wanping with the vegetables, local eggs, salted duck eggs, etc. they gave her.

In the evening, she handed the grapes and dumplings to the two wet nurses and went to Siweilou with her brother.

The two siblings arrived first, followed closely by Shen Yan and Lin Hanshan who had gone to school. Luan Yi, Qi Yongsi and Yu Fuzi came together.

The younger brothers were sitting on one side talking, while Jiang Mingyue, Mrs. Yu, and Aunt Luan were sitting together chatting.

"My husband is really not letting Minghong rest at all, and even brought him several sets of papers when he came to dinner." Mrs. Yu scolded.

Jiang Mingyue smiled when she heard this.

"It is Minghong's blessing that the Master is serious."

Master Yu is really a good master. Ever since he accepted his younger brother as his disciple, he has been very attentive to his affairs. In Jiang Mingyue's opinion, it is better to be strict. No one can succeed casually.

Speaking of Jiang Minghong, Mrs. Yu leaned close to Jiang Mingyue and whispered: "Many people have asked me about Minghong in the past six months. What are your plans?"

Because of the relationship between her younger brother and Mrs. Yu, Jiang Mingyue and Mrs. Yu have become closer. She casually spread her hands and whispered: "It doesn't matter what we think. The key is to see if Minghong thinks about it. I think he hasn't figured it out yet." Woolen cloth!"

"Marriage is destined by God. Nothing can stop it when it comes. You don't have to be anxious. Just wait patiently." Zhou Xiuniang whispered.

"What Aunt Luan said makes sense. What I'm most concerned about now is applying for Hengshan Academy. I'm in a good mood, but I'm extremely nervous after knowing what's going to happen this year."

Mrs. Yu smiled when she heard this.

"You are just like my husband. You have been talking about this matter every day for the past two days. You are more nervous if you don't take the test than if you take the test."

"Don't worry, Minghong will definitely be admitted to Hengshan Academy after working so hard this year." Through Qi Yongsi, Zhou Xiuniang knew a lot about Jiang Minghong and how hard he worked in daily life, so she had full confidence in him.
