Jia Huan's rebirth and revenge

After all, what happened to the Jia family happened in the capital, and all it can affect are officials and officials. It really has nothing to do with ordinary people like Jia Xun's family. Even with the same surname, they were still joked by Liu Bantou and others. A few words, but this did not disturb their own lives.

For example, now, Jia Xun is more concerned about the reason why Bantou Liu called them to eat.

"Uncle in-law is going to be promoted?"

Hearing this question, Bantou Liu's face was bursting with joy.

"Spent 50 taels of silver, relying on the relationship of several generations of our family, at least we have taken another step forward. From tomorrow on, I will be an official, the judge of the punishment room, hehe, one of the heads of the six departments of the yamen. First, if you go up again, it will be an inspection, a history, and it will be an official position of the ninth rank. Second son, it is still what you said, it is not necessarily worthless to be a subordinate. That's right, it's not impossible to mix up grades in your lifetime, even if you can only be a foreign official, it's still an official, right?"

Speaking of this, he wanted to laugh more and more.Speaking of which, he was able to stand out this time, which really took a lot of light from this kid. First of all, it was the matter of the Hailuo Village, which gave the county magistrate a political achievement, and won the praise from above, which made the county magistrate look at him a little differently. , and the later business, so that many servants in the yamen took bonuses, ranging from two to thirty taels, and as little as three to five taels, and the people on duty and arresting the torture room of the barracks all benefited. Naturally, his prestige and popularity among these two people immediately rose a lot.In the end, with the money I earned these few times, I took out 30 taels and gave it to the county magistrate's confidant master. After several efforts, he successfully stood out when the old pawn in the punishment room was sued. The people below are also very cooperative. Only a few old people came over to hint a few words. If you want to make a fortune in the future, you will think about them, but there is no friction in taking office. Do you think this is luck?

Regardless of whether it is true or not, anyway, Bantou Liu believed it. This old Jia's family is a lucky one. How long have I been engaged to their family? Putting on official robes, if this is said, three times as many people can't believe it.

With such an incident, it is natural that Team Leader Liu is now Dianli Liu, and the eyes he looks at the two boys of the Jia family are naturally more kind. Even the secretary Hong is smiling. After being unlucky, everything went wrong, my wife and children were gone, my father was married, and I don’t know if I’m alive or dead. I’ve definitely fallen to the bottom of my life, but now, because I’ve been in contact with this old Jia’s family for a while , not only regained the job of supporting the family and became a government employee, but now he also got a lot of money. Some time ago, he relied on Liu Dianli to buy [-] acres of Zhongtian. I have a home of my own again, and the most important thing is that this good guy has become a pawn. Needless to say, there is hope for his promotion in the future. As long as nothing happens, this pawn Liu will be promoted After becoming an official, he must have such an opportunity. After all, he was also a scholar at the beginning, and he was a little more educated than this old Comrade Liu, right?

"You want this paper and pen, do you still need to buy it? Come with me in a while, and I'll just get you some. There are not many other things in the yamen, and these things are the most. Liufang doesn't know how to ask for it every month." Buy as much as you want, and how much you children can use."

Look, this is how people rely on mountains to eat mountains and water to eat water. The monthly expenditure of paper, pen and ink in the yamen has always been a large number. Why is it this number?It's because these clerks even took all the household supplies from this yamen. Fortunately, there are only a few people who can read and write these days, otherwise the expenses would probably go up several grades.

Jia Xun doesn't know much about this, but he still knows that it is good to take it. Anyway, this family can save some money, right? The most important thing for him to come out this time is to get the whole set of money that he forgot to take out last time. I need to find a source for the jewelry so that I can add it to Yu Niang's dowry when I go back. Speaking of which, Yu Niang is 14 years old this year, and she will be ready to get married in the spring of next year. Isn't this dowry just about to be prepared?

"Uncle in-laws, I have brought some silver with me. I want to buy some good wood to go home. I don't want any mahogany and sour branches. I can have some camphor, cypress, and oak wood. I will go home and make a dowry for my eldest sister." .”

When it comes to saying that it is the dowry of the daughter-in-law, how can Liu Dianli not work hard?The ones that are ready to be carried into their own homes nodded eagerly.

"It's easy to say. We still have oak wood in our county, but there are fewer camphor trees, and the price is not low. Let me ask you, and I will definitely introduce you to one with a low price. By the way, did the carpenter find a good one? Our county government There are a few good craftsmen under the workshop..."

Liu Dianli spoke more and more vigorously, and his introduction was as clear as that of his own family. It can be seen that his years of local snakes are not for nothing. He followed Liu Dianli to the yamen, whether it was to get some paper and pens, to buy wood, or to find a carpenter, Brother Xing was more than enough for him alone, and he used the excuse to go to the young master of the Xu family , leave directly.

Where is Jia Xun looking for the young master of the Xu family? No, he is also looking for it. This process is always going to be a journey, right? Unfortunately, the young master of the Xu family is not at home. He has gone to Beijing. meeting?Rich people these days are self-willed, not even juren, go to the capital to participate in a literary meeting organized by someone who is about to have a spring, dear, are you looking for abuse?

Although the person is not around, the name can still be borrowed. After walking around for a while, Jia Xun has a lot of things in his back basket, a complete set of books, 20 taels of silver, and a camphorwood box. A full set of eight pieces of silver jewellery, and a set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and happily carried them back to the place where he and Xing Geer met.

When they went home, there were more and more things. In addition to Jia Xun's things, there were three very good whole oak trees and a piece of camphor, which Liu Dianli helped find. The dowry wood for the fish girl, with so few decent pieces of wood that can be used to make boxes and small furniture, one can imagine how much the fish girl's dowry will be, at least twelve. .

"Brother, Young Master Xu heard that you were married, and gave 20 taels of silver, saying it was to make up for the congratulatory gift, and another eight pieces of silver, said to be for the makeup of the elder sister, and a full set of Four Books and Five Classics, pens, inks, papers and inkstones. He said that it was for us to study, and that it was something we sold to him a few times, which won him the favor of many people in the capital, let him improve his knowledge, and made many useful friends, thanks We, so I don’t know how to reciprocate courtesy, anyway, I just don’t accept it.”

Sitting in the car on the way back, Jia Xun showed Xinggeer his things, and Xinggeer was so surprised that his expression was not good-looking.

"How can you want it? Young Master Xu has helped us a lot. If it weren't for him, our family wouldn't have gotten up so quickly. We used to sell things for money. How could we still want things? "

Although Brother Xing also knows that if someone can say such a thing, he is afraid that the things sold to him by his family must be sold at a higher price in the capital, and the price may even be doubled, but this has been completed after all. Trading, there is no looking for it, that is not their principle of dealing with people, and the poor also have their own particulars.

But what Jia Xun said next left him no room to refute.

"I'm afraid it's not just one or two points. I know that Young Master Xu is a good man, and I know that money and goods are cleared, but Young Master Xu probably feels that he has taken advantage of us, and he can't bear it, or I feel guilty, that’s why there is such a thing, I think he is also buying a peace of mind, so I thought that since he has already found the interface steps of this ceremony, he has to give it, the big deal is that we will live three days and two lives in the future Just don't forget that it's just a matter of etiquette, no matter whether the etiquette in the future is light or heavy, at least this etiquette is worthy of him."

It is indeed very reasonable to say this. People who have benefited greatly feel guilty. If you want to compensate you, you still put on airs and show that you are noble. That is not adhering to principles, it is offending others.

"Okay, that's what you said, remember this, don't let people underestimate us."

Brother Xing's words were a little low, but thinking about it, he still felt a little aggrieved by the charity. Since their family had a lot of money, no one talked about their self-esteem and self-confidence, and everyone in the family consciously had it.Sure enough, he has enough food and clothing but knows a sense of shame.

In fact, Jia Xun himself still felt aggrieved. All these things were obtained by his big turntable, especially the 20 taels of silver. After all this time, he had saved less than 60 taels of silver in total. I was planning to use it as a private house money for myself in the future, but I just met such a woman who likes to buy land. It has only been a while, and the money I earned last time has been spent and only a few pieces of silver are left, just waiting for them Brothers are trying to make money, if they don't point it out, during this period of time, I'm afraid they should be as busy as a spinning top again, in order to let themselves take a breath, so lazy for a few days, and feel at ease for a few days, this is cruel Ruthless, in addition to those books, I took out these 20 taels.

Now he is sincerely praying to God, at least let his mother calm down, let the 20 taels of silver be kept in the money box for a few more days, and he will have a few days of easy life. There is no silver at home, he is really guilty Panic, afraid that something might happen at home, and I don't even have anyone to help.

"The silver came at the right time. Now that there is wood, it is time to hire a carpenter to do the work. The wages are always needed. It happens that the family does not have enough money to use it. The eight pieces of silver save us from buying them. They are practical. very."

Haw, what is this that fell to the ground?Is it the house-trained jaw or the eyes?Since when did this brother Xing, like his own mother, calculate money so skillfully?This money has not been turned around in the money box, and this use has already been arranged, what is this?Jia Xun felt that if his family went on like this, there would be no such thing as saving silver.
