Stealing Fragrance and Stealing Jade in the Red Chamber

On the second day, Jia Lang and Jia Lian formally bid farewell to everyone in the family. Jia Amnesty took great care of himself and ate a farewell meal in a friendly manner.

After eating, the two brothers stepped on the carriage and left.

Yuan'an and Yuanhuai are two adjacent counties, and the two counties are like brothers, no one is better than the other.

Jia Lian rode a horse and walked side by side with Jia Lang, while Wang Xifeng and her daughter dangled in the carriage.

"How to govern the county, do you have a plan?" Although Jia Lian was happy that he was the county magistrate of a city, he was really at a loss as to how he should manage the people.

"I found a master for you, and you will take him with you when the time comes. Wang Fang, come here." Jia Lang shouted to a man on horseback behind him.

"Wang Fang used to be a teacher in the Shandong governor's yamen. Because he was too upright and upright, the governor found a reason to dismiss him. He has been a teacher for 20 years. I have to personally invite him to come out of the mountain.

Wang Fang, follow my elder brother. Although my elder brother is spoiled, he is open-minded.If you have something to say, don't be afraid to annoy him. Although my elder brother speaks quickly, his heart is clear.

Brother, Master Wang was only invited by me after defeating several yamen county magistrates, so don't neglect Master Wang. "With Wang Fang assisting Jia Lang, he is relieved.

Jia Lian and Wang Fang were polite to each other.

Jia Lian asked again, "Do you still have a plan to restore people's livelihood?"

"You first hold the life and death power of the yamen in your own hands. As for restoring people's livelihood and leading them to become rich, I already have a detailed plan. I will tell you in detail when I arrive at the station at night."

Now Jia Lang's butt hurts from being bumped, and he has no desire to speak at all.

After riding the horse for half an hour, Jia Lang got off the horse and got into the carriage, completely disregarding the man's face.Riding this horse, his inner thigh hurts and hurts.

Jia Lian and the others laughed when they saw Jia Lang's anxious look.

The group of them walked for seven or eight hours before arriving at the station.

Everyone hurriedly repaired. Jia Lang, Jia Lian and their masters Wang Fang and Liu Li had a talk. Jia Lang told Jia Lian his three-step plan and asked him to follow his own pace.

Jia Lian didn't refute at all, he is very convinced of Jia Lang now.

The next day was about to set off again at dawn. Jia Lang didn't even touch the horse the next day, and felt very self-conscious about getting into the carriage.

Jia Lian probably couldn't take it anymore, so he hid in Wang Xifeng's car, and said shamelessly that he wanted a girl.

The wheels creaked and drove far away.

Those who stay in place can only miss silently.

Lin Daiyu felt a little empty in her heart when she saw the blurry painting on the desk.

She got up and went to the small ancestral hall she set up alone, kowtowed three times respectfully, and lit incense for her mother.

Kneeling on the futon and gently reciting the Pingle Sutra (may the relatives below be safe and happy), silently telling my mother what I have seen and heard these days.

As I read and recite, I always feel that my mother will bless her and solve her doubts.

After reading it 33 times, Lin Daiyu lit the incense for her mother before leaving.

"Girl, let's have a glass of water." Seeing Lin Daiyu coming out, Sangzhu immediately handed over the water glass in his hand.

"Is anyone here?" Lin Daiyu asked casually when she saw Yuliu coming in with something in her hands.

"It was sent by the maid when Lian's second grandma left. She said that the son had wanted to send it all along, but was always distracted by other things.

Come quickly, girl, this gauze skirt is really beautiful.And the curtain made of rice gauze, it's hard for Second Mistress Lian to still think about it. " Yuliu also lamented Wang Xifeng's care and shrewdness.

"Gauze skirt, how can I wear a gauze skirt today." Mayday, it's not cold, but it's not hot either.

"This gauze dress is really wearable. The gauze is light in color but not thin. There is a layer added on the inside, so it is just right to wear that day. Second Mistress Lian also gave the other girls short scarlet cloaks, because she was afraid of being too bright." The girl didn't like it, so she sent this one.

I first asked someone to replace the window curtains and bed curtains. I don’t know if the rice gauze will look good when hung. " Yuliu hurriedly called two women and two maids to come over and change the curtains.

Lin Daiyu came over to have a look, and the color was really good.

Seeing Lin Daiyu staring at the clothes, Sangzhu opened the clothes and lifted them up.

"Put it away." Lin Daiyu nodded and returned to the desk.

When Wang Xifeng was a housekeeper, he would send some things from time to time.What Sanchun has, she has.Even if some things are not enough, Wang Xifeng can always find good things, and collect four copies to give together.

Unless a girl wants it alone, Wang Xifeng treats it equally.

This is true on the surface, but Wang Xifeng always said secretly that Lin Daiyu is too poor and filial now.Every time I put something in my pocket, I will give her an extra point or two, so that no one else will know.

Even if she doesn't care about her home, Wang Xifeng often comes over to sit and sit.Even if she doesn't care about her family, she still has her majesty.

Lin Daiyu also didn't know that Wang Xifeng treated her so well.Sangzhu Yuliu knew the reason, and every time she heard Lin Daiyu muttering, she just covered her mouth and smiled.

Jia Lang, Jia Lian, and Wang Xifeng left, and Jia's mansion became a little quiet for a while.

Mother Jia also felt bored for two days in a row, until You Shi of Ningguo Mansion invited her to enjoy the flowers with wine, and then she mentioned the nature of it.

Seeing Baoyu's sullen appearance, he also brought Baoyu to the past together, relaxed and relaxed.

Starting from the post station, Jia Lang and Jia Lian left separately. In the era when there were no cars, the distance between the two counties was still very large, so they went to their respective yamen.

Jia Lang came to the yamen with great fanfare, and the few remaining officials in Yuan'an County all stood at the yamen gate waiting for Jia Lang.

After getting off the carriage, several officials bowed to Jia Lang and bowed their hands to do a baptism.

"My colleagues, you don't need to be too polite. In the future, everyone will be a member of the Yamen. I hope that everyone will do their best to help me in the future. This time, the current emperor has high hopes for me, and hopes that the people of Yuan'an County can live a good life.

If it can really make Yuan'an County away from poverty, I will not hesitate to ask for credit for the adults. "

Although Jia Lang was young, his rocker was straight, and his tone was full of the arrogance of a rich young master.

The other officials didn't say a word when they heard Jia Lang's words.They naturally understood what Jia Lang Enwei said with equal emphasis.

"Submit the information of the existing officials in the yamen, the information of the government soldiers, and the information of all the personnel in the entire yamen." Jia Lang sat down under the mirror in the high hall and immediately gave orders.

"My lord, the road has been full of dust and dust, you should rest your feet first and refresh yourself. The officials and others have heard about the legends and deeds of your lord early on, and they have longed for it, so they decided to set up a reception banquet without authorization."

When an official saw that Jia Lang was about to sit down and go to work, his heart skipped a beat and he suggested it immediately.

"If I want to enjoy happiness, why should I come here. I can't go to Jiangnan Misty Rain or Suzhou Chonglou. I come here to do things for the people, not to eat and drink.

Zhang Li is my teacher, he will go with you to get the materials.Yuan'an County is a poor county, everything is simple.There is no need for a welcome banquet or a celebration banquet.

This official is a descendant of the Rongguo Mansion. I am tired of delicacies from mountains and seas, but now I like farm side dishes.

You don't have to worry, I have also heard about the deeds of the former county magistrate.Now that the former magistrate is dead, everything before is wiped out.Regardless of whether you were bribed or stupid before, I can let it go.

But..." Jia Lang glanced fiercely across their eyes, "If someone is killed, it's better to say it now, if I find out, don't blame me for not being merciful to you. "

They were frightened by Jia Lang's tone of voice.

One of the youngest officials handed over his hand, "My lord, we were sent far away by the former county magistrate precisely because we didn't want to join forces. Because we are the children of a prominent family, we were not sent to the frontier by the former county magistrate." mining.

These are all newly appointed, and they took up their duties here last year.We people just want to contribute a little to the people, and we dare not have the idea of ​​corrupting the law. "

Jia Lang's smile instantly became warmer.

"It's so good, I don't have any worries. I'll meet everyone first and recognize people. Before leaving, I brought a jar of good wine from Jialang. Since everyone's kindness is hard to refuse, I don't Well refused.

Let's sit down and talk.Don't care about the dignity, I just want to hear what you said about Yuan'an County, if you have any ideas, just say it. "

Jia Lang's change of face made the officials below a little puzzled.

They were going to hold a reception banquet for Jia Lang, but Jia Lang said that they were not here for dinner and drink.This time they said they would do a good job, and Jia Lang also said that he would invite them to have a good drink and chat.

They were a little confused by this capricious behavior.

Jia Lang briefly looked through everyone's profile.

The yamen in Yuan'an County said that there are not many people, and there are not many people.

He is the most official person, and the other is the master who follows him.Zhang Li was not an official of the imperial court, but belonged to Jia Lang's personal staff.In addition to the two of them, there are also Zhao Ming, the prime minister of Wupin County, and Yang Ji, the head of Liupin County.

The remaining seven, eight or nine grades are teaching, instruction, inspection, post office, etc., and there are more than ten people in total.Among them, depending on the size of the county, there are also multiple inspections, and each inspection department has [-] horsemen.

Yuan'an County is big, but poor, with only one team of inspectors.

In addition to these, there are six rooms in the yamen. There is one official historian in each room of Li, Hu, Li, Bing, Xing, and Gong.

In addition, there are warehouses, sending and receiving rooms, recruiting rooms (managing the materials and written confessions filled in by the defendant and plaintiff during the trial), and warehouses.

Just for these, there are ten houses, and there are more than a hundred people in all bits and pieces.There are soap classes, strong classes, fast classes, etc., and there are as many as five or six hundred people in total.

After reading it, Jia Lang felt emotional.

It's no wonder that everyone wants to study and become an official. When he was sent to a place in the tenth year of Hanchuang, there were hundreds of people under his command.

If the sky is high and the emperor is far away, then it is really a local tyrant.

After reading only a few important officials' materials, Jia Lang invited them over and sat down at the dinner table.

After three cups of strong wine, everyone's face was red and their ears were red, and they began to froth, excited, happy, and call each other brothers...

Jia Lang watched them all fall down, and smiled triumphantly.
