Farming and teaching across different worlds

to move on. "

Shi Jingchen nodded after listening, and said: "Okay, you can do as you see."

After listening to their conversation, Ji Xiuran said calmly: "If that person needs help, we will try our best to help, and it will be a little effort."

Liu Zhuang listened to the two's instructions, nodded yes, then turned and left.

After the people left, Shi Jingchen put down the curtain, and Ji Xiuran no longer cared about the outside affairs, and continued to tell Jiabao the story.

At this time Liu Zhuang came to the front, and several brothers had already moved the broken carriage to the side of the road. A brother who was more knowledgeable about carpentry stepped forward and took a look. The axle was broken. Seeing the situation, Liu Zhuang stepped forward and asked, "Brother, how are you doing?"

The brother who checked it shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, the axle is broken, I don't think it will be repaired in a while, these two people can't leave today."

At this time, a master and a servant standing beside him heard his words and stepped forward. The master among them saluted and said, "Can the carriage under the two eldest brothers be repaired?"

After hearing his question, Liu Zhuang looked at the brother and said sympathetically, "I guess it won't be repaired for a while, the axle is broken, and I can't find replacement parts here."

The master who looked like a scholar suddenly became anxious, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I wonder if this big brother can make it convenient for me to take us, master and servant, to the next station."

Liu Zhuang rubbed his head in a bit of embarrassment, and said, "I can't make up my mind about this, you wait until I ask the boss."

Mr. Ji said before that he could help if he could help with a little effort, but he still had to ask beforehand if he asked the two of them to go together.

The man gave a grateful salute upon hearing this, and said, "Xiasu Zhiyi, go to Yunbei County."

Siu Si next to him added with some complacency: "My young master is going to take up the post in Yunbei County." After being scolded by Su Zhiyi, he resigned resentfully.

Liu Zhuang and the others glanced at each other when they heard Xiaosi's words, thinking it was a coincidence, and seeing that the master and servant knew each other well, and they were not threatening, they took the initiative to comfort them: "Since it's our lord My colleagues, our lord should agree to the request of our colleagues, oh, I forgot to say, our lord is the magistrate of Yunzhou."

The last sentence was said quite complacently, and Xiaosi fell silent when he heard it, and Su Zhiyi also showed surprise when he heard it, and said: "I don't know if it is Master Zhizhou's car, how rude I am."

Liu Zhuang said nonchalantly: "Our lord won't care, you wait here, I will report."

After Liu Zhuang left for a while, he turned back, and sure enough, Ji Xiuran agreed.Su Zhiyi was very grateful and wanted to express her gratitude in person, but was stopped by Liu Zhuang and others. Now they had to hurry and asked Xie En to wait until the post station.

When they arrived at the post station, Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen took Jiabao back to the room to rest, and after a while, they heard Youlu's announcement that someone was asking for an interview. Ji Xiuran asked curiously, "Who is asking for an interview?" Who will come to see me when the time comes.

Youlu bowed and replied, "Master, it's the master and servant we met on the road."

After hearing this, Ji Xiuran raised his eyebrows with great interest and said with a smile, "Why did these two people see me?"

Youlu reported to Ji Xiuran what he had just inquired about, and Ji Xiuran became more interested after hearing it. When Liu Zhuang mentioned it before, he didn't say that this person was the new county magistrate in Yunnan. He was just an ordinary scholar on the road. Thinking of this origin, Dang even asked Youlu to bring him to the teahouse.

When Ji Xiuran came to the teahouse, Su Zhiyi and his Xiao Si were already sitting at the tea table. When Ji Xiuran came in, Su Zhiyi got up quickly and saluted: "The next official, Su Zhi, has met Lord Zhizhou."

Ji Xiuran raised his hand to signal him to sit down without courtesy, and then gave Su Zhiyi a lot. He looked like a typical scholar in his 30s, and he couldn't tell anything else for the time being. Ji Xiuran looked away, smiled lightly, and said: "Master Su, you don't need to be too polite. This is not a government office. Master Su, just be casual." After speaking, he took a sip of the teacup at hand and said, "It's just a coincidence to help Master Su this time. Don't take it to heart. .”

Su Zhiyi sat upright on the seat, and after Ji Xiuran finished speaking, he said "yes" respectfully, but his heart was filled with confusion. Originally, he thought that this young Zhizhou was just lucky to be so young. Five ranks know the state, but this meeting made him realize that his previous judgment was completely wrong.

Sitting there casually, opening a light mouth can make people feel a little power, and it doesn't take anything to make people nervous. This kind of light coercion is not something that anyone can have casually. Don't dare to underestimate Ji Xiuran.

Afterwards, Ji Xiuran chatted with Su Zhiyi again. Ji Xiuran was very satisfied. It was rare to meet a person whose political views were so consistent with his own. for a moment.

Although Su Zhiyi is older than Ji Xiuran in age, in the officialdom, Ji Xiuran is not only his boss, but also a senior, so some of the suggestions Ji Xiuran gave him are very useful, and he also feels enlightened. After talking for a while, Ji Xiuran became even more awed.

The next day Su Zhiyi came to bid farewell to Ji Xiuran. He changed to a new carriage at the post station and was about to part ways with Ji Xiuran's team.The official road to Yunbei County and Yunzhou City happened to be separated here.

When they were ten miles outside the city of Yunzhou, Ji Xiuran changed into his official uniform, and asked someone to enter the city to inform them in advance. When they arrived outside the city, they could see that everyone was already waiting at the gate of the city. The newly appointed Lord Zhizhou.

In addition to the officials of the Yunzhou government office, there were also many people onlookers. When Ji Xiuran's carriage arrived, they came to greet him in a bustling manner.

Ji Xiuran lifted the curtain, stepped out of the car, got off the carriage, and everyone stepped forward to salute.

The leading official waited until everyone finished saluting, then stepped forward and said, "Your official, Yunzhou Prefecture, was sentenced to Yu Wenyuan, and I have seen Lord Zhizhou."

Ji Xiuran smiled lightly, gave Yu Wenyuan a little support, and responded, "Your Excellency, there is no need to be too polite."

After Ji Xiuran finished speaking, he took a closer look at Mr. Yu. He is about 50 years old, with a round body, an ordinary face, and gentle features. He seems to be a good-tempered person. Contact the evaluation of Mr. Yu that he has heard before. "Good sir".

At this time, Master Yu was also looking at Ji Xiuran in his heart. He was young and promising, seemingly gentle, but actually strong. He didn't seem to be someone who could be fooled at will. He also thought about it in his heart, and replied respectfully: "Lord Zhizhou, the government has prepared That's right, I don't know if Master Zhizhou is going there now?"

Ji Xiuran nodded with a faint smile, "Let's go to the government office first, and please ask Sir Yu to lead the way."

Yu Wenyuan smiled gently, and looked more kind, "Don't dare, Master Zhizhou please first." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to signal Ji Xiuran to go first.Ji Xiuran smiled lightly and nodded, then got into the carriage and went first.

Then the other officials boarded their carriages and followed Ji Xiuran into the city.

After arriving at the mansion, Ji Xiuran first went to the front mansion to take up his post, while the others went to the back mansion for resettlement.

By the time Ji Xiuran came back from the government office, other people had already made arrangements.

Youfu and the others had arrived long ago, and when Ji Xiuran sent the news, they packed up everyone's place, and now that they have arrived, they can move in.Ji Xiuran listened to their report, nodded in satisfaction, and then returned to his main courtyard.

Zhizhou's mansion is naturally larger and more luxurious than their previous yard in Song County, and they also have their own separate yard here.

When he walked into the main courtyard, he saw Shi Jingchen erecting an archery target in the courtyard, while Jiabao was helping with a serious face.

Ji Xiuran walked over, and laughed loudly: "Jiabao can help my father."

When Jia Bao heard Ji Xiuran's voice, he turned his head happily, and instantly smiled into a bun face: "Daddy, you are back, look at the archery target I set up with my father. My father said that I can practice archery here in a while."

Ji Xiuran stepped forward, pretended to look at it seriously, then nodded in praise and said, "Jiabao is amazing, this is the most beautiful archery target Daddy has ever seen."

Looking at the messy wooden blocks piled up on the ground, Ji Xiuran praised against his will. After Jiabao heard this, he straightened his small chest and raised his chin triumphantly.

Shi Jingchen, who was busy sorting out the mess Jiabao made, heard his words and gave him a sideways glance. Ji Xiuran accepted his look, rubbed his nose guilty, stepped forward to flatter him, picked up a wooden block on the ground, and handed it to him. In the past, Shi Jingchen said helplessly: "That's what I just tidied up. You can take Jiabao to the stone table to have some snacks."

Hearing this, Ji Xiuran shyly put the wooden block in his hand back to the original place, turned his head to look at Jiabao, and said, "Can Jiabao and Daddy go have some snacks?" Going away from Jia Bao, who has always been a disservice, can be regarded as a great help to the third brother, Ji Xiuran comforted himself in his heart.

Jia Bao looked at the snacks on the stone table, looked at his father, and then turned to look at his father, feeling a little tangled in his heart. Seeing this, Shi Jingchen hurriedly said: "Father himself is fine, Jia Bao can go and accompany Dad."

Hearing what his father said, Jia Bao stood up and nodded solemnly, went to his father and grabbed his hand, saying: "Daddy and Jia Bao go over there to have some snacks."

Ji Xiuran, who felt that he was being taken care of by his four-year-old son, was at a loss
