Xu Shoufu didn't care how the Ministry of Accounting rectified, nor how the accounting system would change. That was the matter of the Ministry of Accounting. He stood up and said, "The emperor is very considerate. Let Director Shen make a plan first. Everyone fills in the gaps. It must be done to the best of our ability.”

Xu Shoufu made his statement, and the elders of the six other pavilions also agreed. Why should they be bad people for things that have nothing to do with them?It is human nature for the emperor to praise his fellow disciples, not to mention that Shen Jia is indeed superior in this aspect, otherwise it would not be possible to complete the northern tour so well.

Shen Jia got the official position of "Director". It sounded weird at first, but it was just a new small official position within the Ministry of Household Affairs. Everyone didn't take it seriously. Only a few people realized that the future of the Ministry of Household Affairs might happen. Earth-shaking changes.

After retreating from the imperial court, Shen Jia returned to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the news had already spread back. Everyone looked at Shen Jia with admiration.

Feng Qiugui felt that he and Shen Jia were already very good friends, so he was the first to congratulate him, and said with emotion: "Brother Shen has hidden deep enough, it's been a long time, and my brother unexpectedly knows that you are the emperor's senior brother." , Hey, why is it a brother and not a brother?"

Shen Jia shrugged. He was very proud of this point, "Of course it's because I was the one who got started first. Although the emperor is older than me, he got started later than me. It's a pity, now I don't dare to call him "Mr. Junior brother."

Feng Qiugui felt sore, Shen Jia was really lucky, she was born in a small place and a small sect, but because of the famous teacher she worshiped, her studies were excellent, and she was able to meet the emperor early, what a lucky fate!

If Shen Jia knew what he was thinking, she would probably send him a word: "Lemon essence!"

But this kind of thing can't be sour, he is glad that he didn't continue to trip Shen Jia, but became his good friend, and he can always get some benefits in the future.

"I haven't congratulated Director Shen yet. Outsiders don't know how valuable the position of director is. I am in the Ministry of Household Affairs and I will naturally understand that if this position is done well, it will be famous all over the world." Ning Shilang walked in with a cane. Followed by two followers.

Ning Shilang is very respected in the household department. He is the oldest and most qualified, and has a good temper. Everyone in the household department treats him kindly.

"Servant Ning is overrated, and I don't know how far he can go. If something goes wrong, the director will be a dead end." Shen Jia joked to herself.

"Haha, it's a good thing for young people to push forward, have ideas, and strive to change. Unlike the old men like me who are depressed, the court needs young people like you. The emperor is young and strong. If you work together, there is nothing that can't be done. "Ning Shilang had a tacit understanding with Zhou Shangshu before, and after he stepped down, Wang He would be the top servant, but now it seems that it is hard to say who will get the position in the end.

However, he always felt that Shen Jia's goal was not just to be a servant in the household department, perhaps, their Dajin would have the youngest Ge Lao in history.

With such guesses, Ning Shilang became more interested in Shen Jia. He was in charge of the personnel affairs of the household department. The emperor said that the accounting department needed to have [-] principals and [-] secretaries. Some of these people must have come from There are internal transfers, and some are promoted from below.

He took the initiative to take out the roster and showed it to Shen Jia, "These are the people you want to use in the future, you can choose the ones you like, which are convenient to use, and the ones that are not enough can also be seen by someone in person. "

Shen Jia is not hypocritical, people are willing to give him the convenience to let him choose someone by himself, it is better than being stuffed with a group of disobedient people.

The Ministry of Accounting has been lively for a few days because of this incident, and the officials below the principal are desperately trying to squeeze into the Accounting Department. They may not think that this small department can do such earth-shattering things, it is all aimed at Shen Jia. people go.

The Shen family also became lively because of this incident. Although Shen Jia was not promoted, she became the head of the first department, and her rights were completely different. In addition, many people wanted to join the accounting department through connections, so naturally they had to send gifts to the Shen residence.

"Brother Zuo, do you want to go to the accounting department?" Zuo Jiangyi's colleague asked him.

Zuo Jiangyi naturally thought that everyone around him knew that he was Shen Jia's number one fanboy, and they were most willing to join him.

"I think about it, but I don't know if Master Shen is willing to accept me."

"Just try it and you'll know. We are the head of the household department anyway, and we know everything. What's wrong with helping him?"

Shen Jia is always very busy these days, every day there are people treats to dinner, and there are always some people that he can't refuse.

For example, this day, after he went down to the Yamen, he saw Qu Hanlin waiting at the door, and asked in surprise, "Did Master Qu come to look for me?"

Qu Hanlin looked embarrassed, pulled Shen Jia aside, and said in a low voice, "Today I want to invite you to my house. Your sister-in-law has learned a new specialty dish. If you don't have time, that's fine."

Shen Jia originally wanted to go home for dinner today, and Shen's mother complained that she hadn't seen anyone else for several days, but Qu Hanlin came to invite her personally, so she still has to give her face.

"If you're free, I'll go with you after I make arrangements." Shen Jia asked the boy to go back and tell Shen's mother that today's meal is still not finished, but he will go home early.

He now has two new servants serving him, both of whom are helping to run errands, and He Yan is in charge of his work, just like a little secretary.

After going to Qu's house, Shen Jia found that the atmosphere was different. Mrs. Qu also looked embarrassed, but she didn't say anything and cooked a table of good dishes for him.

The Qu family was not rich, so Qu Hanlin seldom entertained guests outside, so Mrs. Qu practiced her cooking skills so that she would not be too embarrassing when she entertained guests at home.

"Sister-in-law, don't be too busy. There are too many dishes to finish." Shen Jia said politely.

"Where, they are all home-cooked dishes. You can eat as much as you can. I know you like spicy food. I just learned this couple's lung slices. You can try it."

Shen Jia could probably guess why they invited him here. Qu Hanlin had helped him before, and if he offered to help, he would definitely help as long as it wasn't too much, but they didn't say anything until he left and went out.

After drinking a few glasses of wine during the banquet, Shen Jia leaned back in the carriage and closed her eyes to rest, still wondering if something had happened to the Qu family, and then heard He Yan say: "Master, I heard something in the Qu family today. .”

Shen Jia opened her eyes to look at him, and asked, "How did you hear that?"

"I overheard it accidentally when I was in Chugong. You also know that the Qu family is not big, there are only a few rooms, and they are arguing loudly. I don't think I can't hear it. I didn't eavesdrop on purpose."

"Okay, I don't suspect you eavesdropping, tell me what they said?"

He Yan cleared his throat, and said: "Master Qu invited you to the door today. It should be because of the second master's entry into the household department. They want to reserve a place for the second master through you. He is a juror and can't be the chief secretary, but It's better to be a low-level official than to stay at home."

That's right. What Shen Jia was curious about was what happened afterwards. He Yan continued: "But their second master disagreed, and said that he would delay his studies. He is going to be the number one scholar. He is reduced to working for a brat. willing.

Mrs. Qu tried her best to persuade him not to take the exam, even his father didn't believe that he could still pass the exam. A big man in his late thirties couldn't just stay at home and not give birth every day. I can't afford to support my children.

Mrs. Qu also said that the life of the family has become more and more difficult these years. The only ones in the family who can make money are Master Qu and the young master. That little salary is not enough for the family's expenses. If the second master can also have an income, life will be easier.

But Second Master Qu not only didn't agree, he also laughed at his father who had struggled all his life and was still just a scholar with two sleeves. Young master, I think Second Master Qu is not good, he thinks very highly of himself, you can't accept such a person. "

"I know that if Mr. Qu asks, I will probably choose a good job for him, but if he doesn't do well, he can leave at any time."

But now that people didn't speak up, Shen Jia didn't take this matter to heart.

It wasn't too late when she got home, Shen's mother waited for him to return while she was doing needlework, and when she saw Shen Jia coming back, she immediately went up to meet him.

"It's still early, I thought you wouldn't be able to come back without the third watch!" Mother Shen said meaningfully.

"Today is a dinner treat for a colleague from the former Hanlin Academy. He used to take good care of me, so he came to bother me."

Shen's mother knew that he had a lot of entertainment, but she missed her son a little after not seeing her for a few days, so she showed him the little clothes in her hand: "The people from the county lord's mansion came today and brought the dowry list. I'm going to get married soon, I'm happy... how about this dress?"

Shen Jia glanced at the small dress in her hand, it was really small, if she didn't tell him it would be a handkerchief.

"It's beautiful, who did you make it for?"

"You."

"Huh? How can I wear it at such a young age? One sleeve is not enough."

"It's for your son. What do you think? You are going to get married soon, and you will have a child soon. I will do some when I have time, so as not to be in a hurry."

Shen Jia didn't dare to speak anymore, just do it, it's a good thing to have a dream.

"After a while, you can also look at the dowry list. The Liu family is in charge of her mother, she is full of heart, and the dowry is all good things. You don't dare to bully others in the future."

"Of course not."

Mother Shen told him some details of the marriage, as if Shen Jia was going to be the bridegroom tomorrow.

"It's getting late, mother, go to bed early."

Shen Jia fled in despair, getting married and having children were all his most troublesome problems.

Fleeing to the room, Shen Jia bumped into Zhao Zhang who came out of the secret passage, smiled, and asked, "Why are you here so late?"

"I miss you, I haven't talked properly for many days."

Although everyone knows that they are close, but try to avoid misunderstandings if possible, so the emperor hasn't called him into the palace recently.

Shen Jia had just been abused by her mother, and she was not in high spirits at the moment, so she sighed and said, "I always feel like I won't be able to cover it up for long, what shall I do then?"

Zhao Zhang raised his eyebrows, "What else can I do, of course, bring me in front of them and introduce me, father and mother, this is my husband?"
